If your shinny new Mi5 is not working , just disconnect the battery... And reconnect it. It will work. My Mi5 stopped working after i put it in my pocket and after 2 mins i wanted to check if i had any messages from my friend, and it was not turning on. No LED no 10 second holding the power button worked. So i gone home and opened the back cover which is GLASS be careful of it, than remove the screws on the motherboard plastic cover and disconnect the battery and reconnect it back again. It should work.
Do not think your mi5 is dead. It's just crappy thats why its cheap. Motherboard does not fail its just xiaomi :0
Buy a phone that has undergone long testing like samsungs, sony... ( LG is also known to fail too )
Sure samsung is best with its exploding Note 7 and Xperia Z series with overheating issues...

Hey... The Mi 5 is not "just crappy". In fact it is one of the flagships of 2016. That was probably just a slip during the manufacturing process. Since it managed to power on for a while, it probably passed Q.C too. Such things happen to every manufacturers, Apple, Samsung, Huawei alike! Just because you were the unlucky one who got it doesn't mean its bad, which is probably why you bought it too! Don't mind my ranting

Hello, dear people at xda!
Unfortunately, my dear Note seems to have a busted battery, as when I fully charge it and try to go on internet (3g, not wifi) the phone starts to flicker and turns off after 10 minutes of connection...
I tried reinstalling different roms, but it is defo the battery....
and since it is a 2 year old device, which I was planning to replace some time in spring 2014 anyhow, I am not seeing any sense of buying a new battery for it.... Therefore I will just go for a new(er) device (not sure if Mega 6.3, or Sony Xperia Z Ultra)...
However, I am not sure what to do with my Note N7000... Selling it like this, I doubt anybody would want it... and plus, the exterior has got some damage on corners from falling, grazing, etc...
I was thinking of having the Note N7000 connected to a power source without the battery in, and hooked up to a 15 inch monitor, and mouse and keyboard and set it up as a quick email check, light browsing, etc, machine...
I have seen on the internet some people using android phones like that, even if just for experimenting..
I like my Note very much and would hate to throw it in the rubbish bin... I think there is still some use I can put it to...
Any thoughts?
I would get a new battery for it and give it to someone. It probably has another few years of service in it.
For light browsing on a tv it doesnt really have the horsepower.10 seconds to load a page is too much.
As an e-reader, mini-tablet or angry-birds-device-for-the-kids-that-want-to-play-on-your-phone-all-the-time maybe.
+1 for a new battery, they cost as low as $5 and would allow you to sell the device for a much larger cost / keep using it for some more time.

So I upgraded from my Redmi 2 to a Redmi note 4, and left my redmi 2 around for 2 weeks. Then today I charged it and tried starting up and although I felt the startup vibration the screen never came on. So I leave it for about an hour then I come back and it's still not working. So i open the back cover and nearly burn my hands cos it's super hot and the plastic is melting. And so my Redmi 2 has finally died, after being dropped 30+ times without a case, used in the rain, throw around, and reset a bunch of times to install new Roms. Dammit I wanted to flash CM14 so that i could laugh at all the Samsung peasants waiting another few months for their official Nougat rom.
Oh well at least it didn't explode unlike *ahem* some other brands *ahem*
P.s hopefully I can fix it. Anyone had the same problem as me?

It does heat but it will not burn the plastic (lol).
Cm14 is great but it's still under development has major bugs.
Try charging by phone turned off then if it works,switch to fasboot and clean flash your phone.

I threw it out already lol. But I did a drop test first. dropped it from all angles from about 1.3m 50 times and the screen didn't break. The finally i dropped it from the first floor and it broke.
Hello,
since 4 days I am a proud owner of a Huawei P10. Berfore that I had a HTC One M9, which did good work for me, except two repairs, but due to a new mobile contract I got the P10 now.
Yesterday I was on my way with my bike, using the App Komoot with my phone inside THIS (not sure if available in other languages than german) waterproof bike case. I had my M9 with a cover case around it, in there often and everything was fine too.
But as I came back from my bike ride yesterday I wanted to take the P10 out of the bike case and as I touched it I almost let it fall down because it was so damn hot.
I managed to start CPU-Z on it and it showed a value of 65-70°C (at soc_thermal) A few minutes later it was on a normal temperature again.
Today it tested it again using the Multiview-App-Thing with Komoot and CPU-Z simultaneously and it reached a maximum of 61,9°C (Screenshots attached)
I'm not really sure what causes it to get so hot. It could be the phone itself or the app or the direct sunlight hitting the phone in the closed case.
Is it normal that it gets so hot? Or better, does it damage the phone in any way?
When the camera or navigation are turned on, P10 will be hot, and if it is turned off, it will return to normal .
But is it normal that it gets so hot I can't touch it anymore for some minutes? I mean My HTC One M9 only got that hot when doing a NAndroid Backup
P10 gets very hot, my old Mate 8 never heats up like P10 even when using GPS and camera...

Hi guys, I got one step further from what you all mentioned. I took it the day before yesterday to a official service and reported that issue. When I'm taking a photo, and I as many bought this phone especially because of camera, the phone gets so hot it's like 40 degrees Celsius. They tasted the phone and told me nothing is wrong, it works in a proper way and no, you can't use a premium guarantee. So, I think I'll sell it in a near future.
Same here - when taking photos or videos for a bit longer time, it gets noticeably hot. Summer is on the doorstep, so I will try to test if the phone shuts down at all or keeps functioning normal. If it shuts down - will bug the seller with warranty.
Hi,
I recently bought a new redmi note 10 pro. It hasn't even been a month of using it.
I was on video call and suddenly the main (back) camera started fogging up after some time during the call (I was using the back camera for this video call and not the front camera). The weather here is very humid currently. Could this be a reason? Although the camera on my old phone never fogged up, or maybe I never noticed it fogging up.
I have never dropped my RN 10 pro or damaged it in anyway. Just concerned if I should do something about it or is this normal in a strongly humid weather.
Any opinion or suggestion in this regard is welcome.
Thank you!
Have you tried booting in safe mode?
I had the same problem and it was hardware related since my phone fell in water once.

It is not software related. The fogging is on the inside of camera glass. I could see it.
It's probably air getting inside thorough certain hole. I don't really know what else could it be.
where do you live? Just bring it to Xiaomi Official service centre, in my country they will fix it for free
I'm a bit reluctant to Xiaomi but it's seem to be the cheaper. I had a Poco M3 that didn't turn off anymore after one year of use and I was wondering if this Redmi Note 10 Pro had the same or others issue ? (This before buying it since it's the same brand).
To be honest, this phone has got Power off and power on Scheduling, So if there was a hardware issue with buttons or something that stopped you turning it off, you could still set a schedule for it to automatically power down. All phones have problems eventually and yes it seems like its a lot of power for such a cheap phone, but i personally did lots of research when i was looking at Xiaomi as a replacement phone, i didnt come across anything that put me off except on some of the newer flagship models and Mi models there appeared to be a battery overheating problem, thats what pushed towards the Note 10 pro, which seemed to be the most solid of the Xiaomi range the last couple year. Do some research, read the best Xiaomi of 22 Reviews, they give you all the pros and cons of each model, im sure that will help you make your mind up Bro.

Thanks for your reply. I've buy a Samsung M52 and see if I like it or not even though it didn't seem to have custom rom support.
