Redmi Note 9

[Nuclear Boy]

I just plugged in my 9Pro to charge for the 2nd time since last week. I noticed now it is only charging at 20W instead of the original 30W from the first time. I have a power meter so I plugged in to see how much it draws while charging, which I forgot to do in the first time round. I did see it draw 6A on the 1st time though, from a battery app on phone. Now it would just go around ~3.5-4A (18-20W).

I updated MIUI to 11.0.5.0 from stock 11.0.4.0 a short while after 1st charge, so I'm not sure if it's a bug or an actual issue. I'm using the original charger and cable in the box. Battery temp is ~40C in both cases.

Anyone notice if your phone charging slower? If you have a power meter or even a battery app like AccuBattery or Ampere, can let me know what kind of current does the battery charge at up till around 50% from some lower amt?

EDIT: Just finished a full charge (11-100%), 1h20m. Is this the normal rate you guys get?

if you add usb meter, the charging current will drop due to meter resistance.
Total time with meter is longer than without

3.5-4A might not be 18-20W. U need to see the voltage. Most quick charge ain't done on 5V. If 9V on 4A is 36W already.

I'm using something like a kill-a-watt, not an in-line USB meter. Is a whole 3-pin socket which I can plug anything into, and it reads in raw Watts. I know QC is definitely not on 5V, but whatever voltage and current shown by app checks out with what is shown on the power meter (Power = Volt x Current)

Anyone knows where is the NFC antenna on the Note 9 Pro?

My request for refund for 9 pro due to scratch at the glass back and stuck on/off button is approved. Money refunded into my credit card already.

Congrats!!! So do you get to keep the phone too?

No lah. I need to return the phone then they can validate and tell me whether reject or approve.

Typically it's at the back on the top part near to the camera.

Switched from Redmi 4x to Note 9S for about a week, experience is not as smooth as I thought. Some lags here and there, camera so-so (even photos taken in daylight have a lot of noise), and only 1 speaker so videos and music not as shiok. Will go back to 4x and keep as spare.

Anyone tried custom ROM from XDA? Note 9 pro sg version is call note 9 pro or 9 pro max in XDA? Thanks

If you are coming from Redmi 4X, how is Note 9S not a significant upgrade??!!

Camera is not amazing i agree but it's 200-300+, surely you can't expect it to be flagship level and also it must be a lot better than Redmi 4X.

Keeping 9S as spare and use 4x is a really strange decision It is even snappier than my Galaxy S7 Edge.

redmi 4x has only 1 speaker too.

Indian N9Pro = Global 9S (codename Curtana)
Global N9Pro is codenamed Joyeuse
N9 Pro Max (seems universal) is codenamed Excalibur

Just take note of the Joyeuse tag if you're looking for ROMs there. I also found a Telegram channel full of updates and ROMs etc just for Joyeuse. Let me know if you want to take a look, can PM you the link.
