    Thanks so much for this video man. I recently replaced my Samsung a02s charging board and for some reason I wasn't getting any cell service, so i thought maybe it had something to do with the network wire but it didn't make a difference. Now at least I have a solution all that's left is to teardown my phone and compare the one inside with an original one on google. So THANK YOU SO MUCH for making this vid, I appreciate it.🙂🙏

    One i ordered had 4G LTE range bars but had slow internet. Charging worked. The technician said its always better to work on bad orginal board than new ones. The board's name is CC board.

    I have faced dame problem. I bought fake one and get very poor signal after contact with buyer he said I should change wifi antenna which does not make sens because the blutooth and wifi works great the only problem with 4G but unfortunattly I have bought also the wifi antenna then I did not install because I saw your video and knows the problem

    I hope you still reply after 4 years.
    I checked online and there is a listing for a charging board.
    One with IC and one without. I use my Pocophone without the sim and only use wifi for internet. Will the missing IC affect my wifi speed? Or should I just opt for the one witb IC?
    Please reply. Thank you.
    Edit: I'm looking on Shopee and there's many options

    this is why you carefully read the specs . i bought mine knowing the 2 chips are not on the board. the original board failed on me back in 2021, replaced it and it worked great. i bought a poco x3 pro so the sim isnt any use for me. i now use my f1 as my emulation device with a 5000 mah upgraded battery. the non chip board is about 4$ and the orginal is about 20$ so i cant pass up the price when i just need charging and data transfer.

    Commenting from the future (2022) and my Poco F1 had a problem with the usb port that I couldn't fully plug in the usb cable and charging was a bitch.
    So I called the local official Xiaomi service center and inquired if I could have it serviced but unfortunately, they saif they don't carry parts for the F1 anymore.
    No choice, so I looked on Shopee and found a seller that offered 2 variants: without IC and with IC (with IC was way more expensive).
    So the item came and I didn't know if the item they sent was with or without IC (I only found this video recently). I installed it anyway, and the phone charges fine now (with quick charge even) but lo and behold -- weak signal from both sim slots and even dropped calls.
    I can live with it now since I WFH and use mostly wifi, but unfortunately, until I can source an original usb board, it might be time to retire my F1 as my daily driver.

      Ah man, that's shitty to hear, but yeah, this is really a problem with spare parts on the open market.
      An alternative is to repair the port on your original port; not the easiest option by any stretch of the imagination, but possibly the best of both.

    It only affects your sim 2 signal. If you use micro sd card in your sim 1 slot and your sim in sim 2 slot you will have the signal drop issue. I also had the same problem but after switching my sim to sim 1 slot I didn't have any signal issue.

    • @ChibiKeruchan
      @ChibiKeruchan Рік тому +1

      that was shit there... they should do it reverse. coz you can't fit the sd card on the sim 2 slot.
      they should atleast make it in a ways that sim 2 is not affected so atleast you can use the sd card slot.
      now I'm thinking if I can find a modified sim tray for pocof1

    almost same issue as mine. I tried to fix my charging port in cheap way rather than paying 1,500 pesos from Mi service center. Few months later my battery bloated and my phone smells like nail polish remover and I think that charging port is the problem, because it may not be equal to voltage enters to the battery that's probably why it bloated up.

    • @ChibiKeruchan
      @ChibiKeruchan Рік тому

      the voltage regulator is in your charger not in the phone. you can see your charger voltage specs printed in the body.
      bloating battery usually have something to do with heat (lithium hate high temperature) or over charging.
      now a days overcharging is almost non existing coz most phone has BMS chip in it. (battery management system) it automatically disconnect if battery is full.
      so you bloating battery is either getting expose to high heat while in use.
      or the BMS is malfunctioning.

    I have a funny symptom: fast charging works perfectly when I have the cable facing one side, but I get only slow charging if I flip the cable. The plug is not loose or dusty. I believe ESD killed one of the USB pins in one side of the plug, because I use those magnetic cables whose head is always plugged in the phone. Did you have a similar symptom with your phone? Maybe ESD just killed some fuse in the USB board but not the actual pin in the processor? You think it's worth trying to change the USB board? Thanks for the video!

    • @TechRodent
      @TechRodent  4 роки тому

      My phone behaves exactly the same way even with a new board. I suspect it's just the port that isn't really wired to fully be reversible compliant.

    I think it's only natural that there are only fake goods in the online shop, because the official store of the mobile brand does not provide it, in fact almost all cell phone brands never sell spare parts in the online store and only provide it at its outlets, And in my opinion that is the ability of the maker to imitate these spare parts. This is not something that should be discussed in my opinion, if the spare parts can function properly, because I myself often buy fake parts, but he runs well

    • @TechRodent
      @TechRodent  5 років тому +4

      OEM/ non original replacement parts are fine, but if they introduce another problem (like this charging board), then I don't think that they're worth getting, and as such worth the PSA so that people can easily spot these boards and not buy them (if they still want to be able to use their phone as a phone)
