Na today?

My Nokia torchlight has taken me to court for over swapping batteries. Lol

Yet the phone still dey kamkpe.

Except you are suggesting that he handled the phone carelessly, I don't see how removing battery and putting in another one will cause issues for him.

Madam Nokia torchlight was not smartphone.

I have same problem as op with Hot 2.I bought 3000mah battery as back up but i noticed the spare battery dont come until i power it on 2 or 3 times.Most times i always hit the battery against solid object before it power up.I did not see it as an issues because original battery do not act like that.

So we agree that these phones aren't built to withstand the rigors of Nigeria's epileptic power space, no?

So why is almost everyone guilt-tripping the OP?

Like I told 4peace, we can agree then that smartphones aren't exactly built to NIgerian standards.

How can one expect the guy not to change batteries kwanu...when power used to experience recession?

Phone u used for more than 11 months
And where did you get the second battery from?
You swap battery probably everyday for months, that's over 100 swaps (what if you damaged the battery contact point?) or damaged some power IC? Will you blame the manufacturers for that too?
I have used other brands the same way but none gave me issue for using two batteries.

In that link you will see a tecno smartphone user with charging issues seeking for help in a more matured manner.

Please stop judging him.
It is his data. Anyhow he wants to use it, he will.

People are different. If he wants to rant or cry or wail....whatever works for him.

In this recession, if I carry common 30k enter market buy phone then the thing start giving me mumu issues...I will not only rant on Nairaland, I will make sure my generation does not touch that brand till I see concrete evidence that will change my perception.

I don't ROM but everything is "follow come". But I once had an issue with the phone and gave them at Carl Care where they rectified the issue.

I have never attacked any device on NL.
Infact, I have praised Gionee sef.
It's just that Tecno remains my first love, Tecno is Baesmiley

It is how you Gionee fanboys are putting the OP down that I find somewhat disgusting.

You sef can't blame me, I was thinking he has a multiple of bad experiences with gionee only for me to discover it is just one marathon mini 3

Maybe I went off-track but I don't think the rant aint worth it.

I have used the m3mini it gave no issues, I change it because of 4.5 inch screen - I don't like it. Then p5w(poor battery life) currently m5mini..

None of them gave me issues aside the ones started above.

well everyone gat different experiences with smartphones.

Back to what you were saying

@bolded.. will you do that if it's a tecno device.

That's how people will be complaining of C9 and I will be like, is it not this C9 that till today, I still get goose bumps when I see someone holding it?

For your question....
I have confessed before now that I never liked Tecno. I am one of those people whom they have succeded in changing my perception.
Infact, my brother went to Tecno office to pick up some gift items they gave me and when he came out, he was asking me Why Are You Not working At Tecno.

If I ever experience such with their device, which I highly doubt in this time and age, because of how attached I feel, I will give a second chance, but if it persists....I will withdraw my support.

I cannor Coman use my reputation to be promoting lies.

1.Some Mtk Devices battery need to calibrate some point at a time of usage especially when remove or dead b4 charge.Work if you have change your rom to likes of cm12.1(based on experience on Redmi 2,Hot 2,M3m even LG D410 and back.
How do you know something is wrong
Charge your phone and note the %
remove it and hit the battery on your palm or table(softly)
Put it and connect charger, the battery % should be same if not battery stat need to be remove by calibration.

2.Reflash the whole rom not factory reset may solved the problem.This is only thing that solved the same problem i had with Hot 2

3.Sell the phone especially to @Iamtosignno the dude truly need it because of flex wtf.

4.Whenever you buy any phone nowadays if you cant buy original battery (dont buy 3rd party) get powerbank.


To be honest with If your power key button is not having issues,then the problem is software related and man-made error

Experience the difference..

Do you know m3mini has a special battery design? (notice it uses 4 pins) hence it might be more sensitive to the carelessness. Next time stay away from the M series if swapping batteries is what you love.
