I followed a video on uTube by Forbes Tech Reviews. The video is called Poco F2 Pro How to Install Gcam. So far so good. Stable.

The system wallpaper archive on my phone doesn't have the dynamic nebula wallpapers. Anyone knows why? Updated to MIUI 12 already.

Just received the phone yesterday. Initial impressions are very positive. Coming from a S20 Ultra Exynos which I sold, this phone is better as it runs faster and cooler.

Wah, it's that bad? How much you lost? Note 20 Ultra seems like a better buy but then it's still running the inferior chip so no point. I would think coming from such a premium phone, you'd go for something a little more premium than the Poco F2 Pro.

Actually, I don't feel a big gap between F2 and S20U. S20U feels more fluid with higher refresh rate and the UI was slightly better, but that's about it. The S20U camera wasn't very good with auto focusing issues and not Gcam compatible.

You meant the super live wallpaper? I'm using the mars one. Not sure why we don't get the options under wallpaper but i got it working by downloading the wallpaper from apkmirror (search super wallpaper xiaomi) , then download google wallpapers app from playstore and applied it through the app.

How's the charging speed for you guys? My poco f2 pro seems to be charging quite slowly as compared to advertised. 10-100% took about 1 hour 40 mins, Ampere app show max vol only 2900mA , using stock charger and plug.

I dunno cos i didn't use the 30W charger that came with it. I use my stylo 18W charger so it's about 2hrs or so. I thought 1hr 40mins is just about right.

Went out to take some photos and videos and the phone remain pretty cool. Didn't even feel any heat at all from the screen or the back though i do have a case on.

Hmm battery drain on the poco phone feels quite fast. Standby is great but once the phone is on the battery is is literally dropping lol.

Gpay for MRT rides

any of you guys face problem using gpay to pay for MRT rides? It keep giving me error "It didn't work" and then something about the card may not be able to use. But the funny thing is it worked once before. And yes I tried to switch to HCE instead of SIM wallet but still cannot. Also tried wiping cache and reinstalling gpay and re entering the cards. Still cannot go through.
