Is there any way to enhance the speaker volume?
I love this phone but my speaker volume is pretty poor

I have my phone about 4 weeks now and cannot get over how load it is, on i have it set to about 3/4 volume just so its about the same as everyone else's phones. my question is the about the small cardboard that came with it. its flatpack and no instructions and managed to put most of it together but cant figure the rest, its driving me mad. it is a phone stand or some sort. there is nothing on the net about it, did anyone else get one of these? cheers

Hi all,

Trying to get some info from my friends lost / stolen phone. Google device manager says it is still turned on and I know roughly where it is, but whoever has it is not answering. It's in an estate near enough to where she works.

Tried remotely installing Androidlost but that's not much use since I can't start the app. Jumpstart isn't compatible with any version of Android higher than 3.0.

Cereberus won't work without having previously created an account.

Willing to try absolutely anything.

I didn't get that with mine. I was thinking about it when reading your post and said I don't remember anything like that and then went to check my box and there was nothing just sim extraction tool.

it comes in a white packet saying wake up on it. it was in the main brown box, not the red/white box the actual phone is in. stupid design has my head wrecked ha ha. funny thing is il never use it and phone plus silicone case wont even fit in to it, but would be nice to see what it looks like

It must be a new thing, I have my phone a few months and don't remember anything like that.

Could be worth a look when the time comes to replace my OPO - http://www.theverge.com/2015/1/15/7550903/xiaomi-mi-note-announced-specs-price

Similar dimensions but slightly bigger screen and 2mm thinner which is a lot.

The camera is good on this phone.

Can you do things like change the ISO settings, change aperture, shutter speed, white balance?

Well i updated to CM12 and it is actually very smooth and runs very well for a daily driver. I was going to hold out for 12S but got itchy feet and updated. The only thing I miss is the camera app as you get the google camera app and the V to turn on flash light is missing as well. Double tap to wake and lock is still there.

Can I ask which rom you flashed?
I tried a couple but am getting e signatrue verification failed.
My phone is the chinese version but it didnt have color os on it, it had CM.
Eager to check out CM12
Cheers.

Hi
Anybody else having problem with charging?
I plugged in my phone last night to charge and when I woke this morning it was only at 67%.

Used it a bit today at work and plugged it in again and it will only charge to 67% and stop.

Did anyone have theirs delivered by mailboxde.com? I am just wondering how long it has taken others to receive from Germany? Mine was sent last Saturday 10th, but still showing as being in Germany when I check the tracking number online.

Did you mean low or loud?

Do most people find their speaker volume adequate? If I put a call on speaker or play music through it I find it’s much lower than my previous phones.

Maybe it’s a fault with my handset?!

Mine is much louder than any other phone I've had

The top one is the newest one. They are nightlies so new one added every day/night depending on where in the world you are.

edit: just noticed they haven't added a new one for a few days but it is stable enough.

As far as i know, all phones come from china so company in germany are prob waiting for it to be delivered to them and then send on. my estimated delivery time frame was between 2-6 weeks after i ordered it, but got it in 3.

Looks like it's all there, hard to tell how accessible they are. If the options are too deep in menus it might make them a bit redundant.

I order on the German site and strangely is was sent to Mailboxde from London! Mailboxde.com say they have dispatched it, but tracking still shows it to be in Germany:mad:

up4dabah

After a month since it was sent, it finally arrived. Fuppin hell. Pay that little extra for Parcel Motel, save you a lot of heartbreak with Mailboxde.

wotzgoingon

Yes sure look at the post above you. It says it was originally sent from UK even though ordered in Germany.

DarkPassenger

Anyone know if you can buy the original charger anywhere?

seannash

Did anyone buy from this site before.
If you keep it in USD it works out at €316 with delivery. Based in the EU also.
Anybody see a problem with this site

The original charger is an American plug isnt it? They never made one 3-pin.

I think they did make a 3 Pin. I ordered my phone the other day and the invoice refers to a UK Charger.

Pretty accessible, it was just a couple of keypresses in and out of each menu from the camera app

(First time I've used them, no idea what any of it meant )

So did my invoice months ago but it was just the USA plug and a poundshop adapter.

Aldi offering two-gang sockets with two built-in 2.1A USB sockets. From Thursday 22nd @ €17.99 each. Not a charger replacement, but could be useful and tidy in the house.

Any idea how easy something like that would be to install? As in how likely would I be to burn down the house/electrocute myself if I did it myself?

MoodeRator

Hurrah! Mine just arrived \o/ ~Also with a 2 pin plug, maybe because ordered from the German site??
