"Activating Find device can't connect to the network"

This one drives me crazy. Search for online solution but none work. Mi Account just cannot activate sync via SMS.

I remember 2 days ago someone talked about this but no discussion. I am using DIGI. Anyone face the same problem?

I found a solution last time but didn't bother. just mute the notification and you'll be fine.

Is anyone using nillkin's camshield case? It's blocking my proximity sensor and I'm not sure whether it's hardware or software related problem. Everything is fine when I'm not using a case or a thinner profile case like the ori one or the fabric one by nillkin as well.

Now that you mentioned it, that might be the cause. But the thing is, the problem still occur even after i took out the case. Now im using back my ringke fusion case. Guess its time to throw the nillkin camshield case away  bye.gif
*
ya right, that's sad. it's a good case. much better than the fabric one. i wonder whether hard reset might solve it. saw someone using eu rom and looks like the proximity sensor problem is gone.

tried unlocking it today and god, 336 hours. puke.gif puke.gif puke.gif puke.gif i had to wait for a week to unlock x3 and now 2 weeks? puke.gif puke.gif puke.gif

System stability under 22.0.3 is a lot better compared to the previous version.

It manage to fix the proximity sensor issue base on my experience.

I just noticed something. There is no wipe cache in recovery? I usually do a wipe cache whenever I update my phones. I know you don't have to do this. So does poco have a place to wipe cache or this method is obsolete?
*
it's been awhile for stock recovery not having that if i'm not mistaken

sorry for asking where to clear cache

Go into updater, swipe up to multitask, long press updater and click the gear.

It doesn't work for me though, downloading the firmware and do it manually.

It's not miui. It's Android itself. Gesture doesn't work well in Los with nova too. Have to stick with stock launcher for gesture.

Just purchase this phone 2 weeks ago and have proximity sensor issue in WhatsApp, screen off while playing audio.

Does sending it to service center fix the issue?

You can use this to calibrate

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?...calibrationfree

Newest firmware kinda solves the problem. 12.5.4

We have an accelerometer/ultrasonic combo which makes it unreliable.

Otherwise,

Crdroid sort of solves it too.

Alright already calibrated, let's see for a few days. What you mean by 'kinda' solves the problem?

I'm already running on the latest firmware but problem still exist. Went to service center this evening and they said something about changing the motherboard or lcd. This is a new phone so I don't wanna get it dissected and end up with the same problem cause I knew its using accel/ultrasonic combo so idk if they can actually solve it by changing those as mention.

Any advice?

Flash to Cr and you will see improvements. But not to the level of traditional proximity sensor. But it's better than miui.
