Just bought this phone for like 45 dollars. The size is perfect to use as a secondary phone. Can use 4G Volte on only 1 SIM at a time, no Dual 4G Volte. Need to change the battery. How much it cost in service center

    Rotich, 22 Jun 2021Hey, i have this type of phone and i have updated the syste... moreI assume you upgraded from MIUI 9 or MIUI 10 to MIUI 11. For a ROM rollback, these r the main steps:
    0. download MIUI 9 or MIUI 10 .zip file for your device, from the web(ps. easily available on the web)
    1. backup all your data
    2. unlock bootloader
    3. install custom recovery(for android 8.1)
    4. using recovery, wipe system, cache and ART/dalvik cache.
    5. using recovery, install "no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.1" (ps. search for this on web)
    6. using recovery, install your downloaded MIUI .zip file.
    7. using recovery, wipe cache and ART/dalvik cache
    8. reboot the system
    9. enjoy !
    (ps. above are just the main steps, detailed steps are well explained on the web, AND IF ANY DOUBT, REPLY BACK TO ME)

So first please ensure that you use a dedicated charger. My unit has now started to show less standby time after 3 yrs of usage. Basically the IC in the battery charger unit of mobile phone gets corrupted due to different charger usage. So, maybe the replacemnt of that IC and your battery can solve your problem...
