M3 is a sleeping beauty, waiting for a prince's kiss. It will wake up. Dare not do any flashing, stock OS is still the safest way think. 💏

Mine also 3 times. The 3rd time was 2 weeks ago when I reboot my phone, so every now and then just press the Power button to try, and it received the kiss, bingo. 😘

The thumb of rule is not to turn off or update or reboot, then it will be ok. But sometimes we forget to follow them. ☺

Haha if a while more still cant switch on, I think I will just recycle it.

Any idea do u know the memory is on mainbord or anywhere else. Cause I will be removing the "hard disk" before recycling as I didn't sign out of my Google account

This i am not sure. But if your set is still within warranty, bring it to Mi Service Centre at Funan Mall to get it awaken then request them to factory reset for you, then u recycle it.

As for me, the Poco Yellow is really stunning so I shall stick to it. M3 is the first device to adopt this colour. It seems the future Poco devices are not launching any more yellow colour according to all the upcoming devices I have seen so far. A pity. 😭

If it is ready to wake up from its beauty sleep, pressing either Power button or Power&Vol+ will still work. So press Power button will do. Power and Vol + buttons are to go to boot mode.

My last luck was pressing vol+ and power button, hold for maybe a minute. So just holding power button does wake the sleeping beauty too?
Sian 3rd day liao. My last luck was on 3rd day. This time seems the beauty isnt waking up that easily... :(

On the side note. The reason why i shutdown my M3 is because it keeps losing network. I wonder if any of your M3 behaves like this too? It was ok past month, until around 1 week ago. By the way, I am using Simba for M3

I suspect it could be a built-up of cache and memory that affect the smooth functioning and rebooting does solve the problems. Due to this device situation, may be it is advisable to use built-in Cleaner app to clear cache and memory instead. Not ideal but would still improve the phone operation.

I had F1 which was one of Poco best ever, currently using X3 Pro. Both are amazing phones with no such nonsense
That's why heard damn good things about f1 so thought the brand Poco would be good. But proven wrong by m3.

I think poco phone really did a bad job at this. I am sure I will not be the only one who will never touch a Poco phone again.

Samsung is stable and reliable but somehow not as value. Xiaomi or Poco always offer more with the same amount. M3 dead boot issue is an exceptional case, still, with 2 SIMs + 1 mSD slots and it's fabulous IR Remote Control, I still adore it. 😊

It seems to be offered by 3rd Parties not Samsung AD direct for its lower end device? I was checking an A04s cos I kinda like the copper color option but dont think it is local set. As for A14 I seemed to see it at Challenger but the color options are not to my liking. If Samsung AD offers local set for A15, Samsung is quite a safe buy for functions and reliability for sure. Enjoy! 💃

I just knew Samsung got $100-$200 phone also. Lol so likely will consider it if my phone's spoil next time. Lol.

Now don't feel like spending too much on phones since also never really use it to play games. Lol

Yah, no need to buy I think if you are using M3, its spec is the highest in the same range anyway, the screen resolution is 1080 instead of the usual 720. 😊
