Wed, 24 Oct 2018 22:17:04 -0700

The lighting is very low and it can be seen only when a flash light is used to. Looks like the phone touch is ok. I tried to replace with the new display, the same is remaining on testing it

Xiaomi Redmi 2: redmi 2 heating up abnormally

Fri, 20 Oct 2017 18:18:47 -0700

My Redmi 2 starts heating up as soon as I place the battery in it, it becomes so hot that I have removed the battery so that the problem dosent get any worse.

When I put the battery inside and try to switch it on, nothing happens; the phone continues to heat.

No boot up screen. The phone heavily heats up below the back camera whenever I insert the battery.

Xiaomi Redmi 2: Mobile dead after wrong software update through flash tool

Sat, 31 Dec 2016 08:23:37 -0700

Hi Team,

Last night after doing the fast boot my device has stopped working. The screen is not getting on, I tried to plug the charger but there's no notification light. I tried to remove the battery for few minutes and still no hope. I also tried to load fastboot once again by pressing Vol UP + Power / Vol Down + Power / Vol Up + Down + Power still no joy. The next step I did is I remove the battery then insert my phone to my Laptop then I plugged back the battery, it wasn't detected.

even i check the following thread http://en.miui.com/thread-100553-1-1.htm...

which needs a bit of technical skill....but there is no luck on that as well

I have read many threads on forums about MI Flashing, the problem is I can't load my device neither in fastboot nor detect my phone.

Request your help on the same from chip level to repair the hardware as u t the one in market to fixit this issue.

Xiaomi Redmi 2: Screen is black but I can hear the notifications.

Fri, 08 Jun 2018 17:38:22 -0700

I once dropped my phone so the screen got cracks and is completely black. Now when I am sending text messages from another phone , it is receiving them and I can hear the notification sound and the light is too blinking. But when I am calling from another phone, it's showing "LINE BUSY". Is it the display which has problems ?

WHAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM ? SHOULD I BUY A LCD + DIGITIZER OR THERE IS SOME OTHER PROBLEM ???

Thanks in advance.

Xiaomi Redmi 2: Headphones not working anymore in my phone

Sat, 07 Apr 2018 02:50:42 -0700

I have been using my Sony heapdhones in my phone for more than a year without any problem. I was listening to the music yesterday and after a break of an hour I wanted to continue, however my headphones did not work anymore. I tried to plug the headphones in my computer and a different phone, they worked. I tried to use another pair of headphones in my phone and it worked as well (so the problem is not in the headphone jack).

Can anyone help me? It seems that my headphones and my phone do not work together anymore, but separately they do (I didn't change anything in the phone settings).

Thank you!

Xiaomi Redmi 2: Why won't my phone not charge anymore?

Sat, 29 Jul 2017 15:10:33 -0700

My phone was working perfect till a week a go. Suddenly it turns off with 50% battery remaining and won't turn on again . So I tried to turn it on on the charger and it turns on. But it won't charge anymore. It still works perfect on the charger. But the battery stays on 0% or 1% and as soon you take it off the charger it turns off.
