Pocophone F3

[testerjp]

The nohon battery is available from shopee, and it ships faster than aliexpress.

I'm just not sure if they give glue or glue cover, but it's said to be provided either way.

My battery suddenly drops from quickly, it suddenly becomes 1%
I charge with my anker charger and it was stuck at 1%.
I rest the phone then it suddenly went back to 56%,.



duno is it the battery getting more serious or hardware issue

Battery issue.
my MiMax1 replaced old battery can suddenly shuts down at random 20-40% etc, upon attempt switching on it may randomly shows any certain %, and once plugged in it may suddenly update to like 70%+,
Basically erratic % value & causing random shutdowns etc. Fixed when i replaced another new batt again

Ordered the Nohon battery to see if it works, it costs just $19.45 delivered from Malaysia.

this situation the battery internal cell on it's final weeks ...... it degrade , heat up , create more gas bubble to bloat further .........
it can suddenly deteriorate in a few hours by accelerating the heat & gas to bloat further ... whole screen curve to the point where it's better to shutdown the phone wait for replacement battery delivery ... or retire the phone outright if it's deemed laggy or software too old , final factory reset before shutdown retire

mm1 was more prone to this issue as the cpu of that era can heat up by just streaming video at extreme low screen brightness (afk grind points) ... slowly cooking the battery too .... that phone needs active fan cooling

in my case, the battery was not bloated, but yeah the % reported erratically / shutdowns randomly, resolved after changing batt.

usually when battery bloated (phone/powerbank etc) i humji dont dare to use and either diy replace / fix or throw

Ordered the battery

Battery came ytd.
I replaced it, not too hard, but I did not screw in top properly I guess. Slight bulge on top and I don't have enough glue for redoing it

The battery comes with the tool and a small glue.

Charged till 100 pct at 1am. At 9 am it was iirc 92.

Did not use the hp much, now it is 72 percent after 14 hours, I would expect it to be around 40 pct with the old battery.

A worthy fix for less than 20 bucks.

The most difficult part is the removal of the chassis. I did not use any heat to soften it.
There's a thin wire on the right hand side near where you pry the case, you could damage it accidentally. Best is pry top bottom left side.

Yes the last piece of plastic cover that you need to put back before the screws need to be latched in properly otherwise it won't sit flat.

I have yet to glue my glass cover back. it's just holding on with the glue residue. I applied some heat after pressing it back too.

Agree that the hardest part is to crack in. Need the kind of super thin plastic film to cut through the adhesive really. Need suction cup as well.

So the Mohon is a bit more expensive. My BM53 from the Malaysia seller was $11 or $12. The BM53 with 5000mAh definitely lasts quite a bit longer but need to bear with the slow charge. Ok if you're using F3 as second/spare phone.

I had a problem after replacing the battery on my POCO F3.
The NFC stopped working.

I went to study the schematics.
The bulge i had on the top was because the inner top piece that has to be removed, must be slot into a latch before screwing back in.
I ignored that and because it did not sit properly, it's not resting on the antenna for the NFC.

When i took the back cover out on the second time, i was lazy and i did not heat again, plus i put a lot of glue in the previous time.

My back cover broke and i've ordered a $7 replacement cover which should be coming soon.
Even if the back cover cracked, it shouldn't affect the functionality and i'm using those opaque liquid silicone covers which block the view

So lesson learned is before you put back the cover, check the NFC is working first.
You can check by tapping onto a credit card, it should have some reaction.
Also check if your mic, and other functions like the flashlights are working.
One of the connectors go to the bottom piece to the mic, the other top piece i mentioned above, is also connected to the LED flash light.

I should test mine haha. I haven't use NFC on this phone for very long time though.

All the fun with diy, experiencing more screwup(s) and attempts to fix the new screwup(s)

i've accidentally broke the soft flexible cable for fingerprint sensor, as well as blurblur go cleanup the slightly disintegrated rubber parts on volume/power buttons when i was replacing my other xiaomi batteries
