Still not a sign of it here. Are there different models of this phone?

Have you checked for system updates? Mine didn't notify me but it was there when I checked.

Xiaomi pulled the Mi A1’s Android 8.1 Oreo update

DopeTech · 02-07-2018 04:58PM

Noticing a few little quirks since I did the 8.1 update that has since been pulled.

Things like my parrot sometimes saying no network, when I click a number in sms it opens the dialer with the number already typed but when I press the green phone button to start calling the person nothing happens.

I hope they release an update do undo all these problems.

Found this on the xda forum

IMPORTANT: SINCE MAY OTA UPDATE, DATA IS WIPED IN THE BOOTLOADER UNLOCKING PROCESS. TO USE THE TOOL YOU HAVE DOWNGRADE APRIL OR BEFORE, INSTALL THE CAMERA AND THEN UPDATE.

Have you got Sim Tool kit installed? There's an option there for Going Abroad and network selection.

What's the latest on this phones lads and ladettes? Is there a problem with the latest update? Had been thinking of getting this phone but have my doubts now.

How fast does the phone fully charge from empty as I heard there is no fast charge?

Also the lack of nfc is disappointing. Don't use it yet but with android pay coming to Revolut, it will definitely be used

fully charge from empty in under two hours for me, pretty rapid to get up to 80% too from flat

Did you get this sorted?

Was in Italy two weeks ago and couldn't make or take calls for a week. Funnily enough I could send and receive texts no problem. I'm with lyca mobile. It was OK for the few days before I came home.

I'm kinda sorry I bought this phone. Should have bought the Nokia 7 plus android one. Its flying along with the updates....This Xiaomi still stuck on May security update. Too late now I'm stuck with it for a year now.

That phone didn't come out until 6 months after the A1

The inevitable happened today and I dropped my A1, destroyed the screen.

If the Mi A2 lite comes in at around €250 and has the specs it purported to have (4000 batt, 20 mp front and rear, quick charge 3.0, expandable memory) and it has band 20, I think I'll go for it.

Screens are cheap would you not repair it

Unfortunately yes. The device has a radio but I don't think that the kernel supports it. A friend of mine had to have the FM tuner so we ended up putting lineage os on it which does support the tuner.

As in DIY? Maybe. Any idea of cost and degree of difficulty?

If it was reasonable to send off for repair I'd do that.

Having lots of issues with call quality, people cannot hear me during calls it completely drops. Seems to be a common problem. Anyone know a fix for this?

In the same boat here. Also the signal coverage is very inconsistent. Losing calls a lot of the time.
