    Softkeys wont lit

    Softkeys lighting compared to the screen uses no battery. Anyway the 3 keys are not going to switch their position, so once you get used you can easily know where to press even if you can't see them ;)

    {MI2}[3.5.17] HUGE Battery Drain.

    just take the photo with the graph after 2 hours the charger has been disconnected. I want to take a look to the awake time of the phone since I believe it is waking up frequently but just for some seconds, so it doesn't show up in the 8 hours graph. How is the signal reception in your area? 3g...

    {MI2}[3.5.17] HUGE Battery Drain.

    There is a lot of active time. I would seek for the cause in some program you installed. Still it is strange. Could you provide a random 2hr fragment of your battery use? Also which power profile are you using?

    3G increases the battery usage under low reception and of course if transferring high amounts of data. But unless the reception is really bad the main battery eaters will be the screen and the cpu. I'd recommend the extended battery because of this and because the special cover used for the...

    Bricked MI2S

    I had the same problem after an update. It is bricked. It is not slow. It doesn't respond to keys, the led doesn't blink (well, it does once for some milliseconds if the cable is inserted while the battery is not in the phone). I tried for a couple of days. Dead...

    Bricked MI2S

    If the device doesn't respond to key input there is no way he is going to access fastboot. It is in the first post. The device must now be sent to an assistance center.

    When I say mid usage I mean 10-15 minutes of screen on per hour. Anyway you will find that different performance profiles can help you saving battery. The two screens have been shot right now and the phone is set at power saving mode. I consider this heavy usage.

    Battery is good actually. If the phone is under heavy usage out won't last a day tho. I got myself a 3000mAh battery and using power saving mode I get a full day of mid-high usage without problems. When I don't need to maximize usage I stick with normal mode and at the end of the day I still...

    You don't apply it. When you are connected to the network in 2G mode, if the network supports it the phone will be able to connect using edge. Don't focus on the word edge, focus on 2G.

    It is just great and the absence of kernel sources isn't a big deal because some modding is still possible and above all miui comes with many features that on other phones are available only on custom roms. Definitely worth your money.

    GPS issues in MI2

    I had problems, but it was due to droidwall blocking the aGPS. If you are using gps without ephemeris it takes sensibly longer to fix and the fix tends to be slightly more inaccurate. If the phone is connected to the internet the fix is matter of 5-10 seconds in the open. By windows it takes...
