my poco f5, there is a two arrow in opposite direction at top left side, what's that, and it can be remove? any problem will caused if remove it?

and down list showed a "Data transfer", how to close/ remove it? simce I transfer the data from old phone to f5, it's there.
Try rebooting your phone.

If cannot solve, try to attach the data transfer cable, most probably there's a step to eject the cable, that you missed out. When I use OTG drive, sometimes also miss the eject drive step.

If not using cable. Maybe data transfer haven't fully completed or try to on/ff your wifi or Bluetooth, maybe some send error in the network.

Using Nova Launcher and want to enable the double tap to wake/sleep feature. This requires the Accessibility menu setting -> Download apps -> allow the "Use Nova".

This works for a while, but after sometime the "Remove Gesture" menu will come back again, and have to remove/add-back Accessibility permission for Nova again.

Is there any way to resolve this on Xiaomi phones?
Xiaomi actually have blocked some third party launcher functionality. So sometimes if it works, you are lucky.

Some work around, is don't set Nova as default launcher or you will need a rooted phone to bypass the block. If not try other gestures navigator which is less popular(probably not on Xiaomi block list).

Thanks for the advices on the Nova Launcher, didn't know it is indeed a chronic issue still, thought this is a rather mature app by now

After few weeks of use, I feel that the call and data reception is not as good as my previous phone(OnePlus 7 pro). I did have a change in SIM card because of 5G though. Not sure if that's the cause. Also I'm using M1, so could be due to the recent downtime. Will continue to monitor.

Your one what issue?
My English cui so i copy paste what i think is the problem


What does gyro sensor do?


A gyroscope is a device that uses Earth's gravity to help determine orientation. Gyro sensors are devices that sense angular velocity which is the change in rotational angle per unit of time. Angular velocity is generally expressed in deg/s (degrees per second).

Accelerometers in mobile phones are used to detect the orientation of the phone. The gyroscope, or gyro for short, adds an additional dimension to the information supplied by the accelerometer by tracking rotation or twist.

I have been using Xiaomi since they started in SG.
I've never needed to visit the service center and most of my phones are passed down to my parents after a year of use.
Those passed down phones are still working till date.
I've never looked back after using Xiaomi.

I think it is a matter of luck. Having used various xiaomi and poco over few years, I have no issues that require a trip to the service centre. I seldom have issues with other brands too.
