I need the help of anybody here.I bought Gionee M2 mini this week and before using it, I charged the battery fully and used the phone until the battery was flat.
When I was to charge,it started from 1% but did not move higher than that.Immediately I put it on, it increased to 45% back to 42% then to 50% and back to 49% while charging.I bought the phone in Ibadan but stayed in Abeokuta.
Is there anyway, I can solve this problem. I need a solution to this,please since it is a new phone.
Thanks.

weird.... my color correction was switch off by default. Hope the momentary mishap didn't make you regret getting the phone, cus M3 mini is suppose to be one badazz flawless/faultless beast

BTW, its actually settings => Advanced => Accessibility => color correction - off
actually I didn't regret getting the phone at any point because I wasn't really concerned about the camera. it was still good irrespective just the colour, but now I'm more impressed.

oh yeah right!

firstly answers the questions with as much details as possible

*are you using the original charger?

*what's your power source? PHCN or GEN... if Gen, what's the power? 2700, 2900 etc

*have you tried using another wall socket, apart from the one you're currently using

honestly when I had the real taste of this phone's crispy colour...I could only imagine the torture I went through when the colour correction was on.

It is a new phone which I bought this week and I am using the original charger.
I have charged twice so far and I used PHCN.
I have an extension box I normally use plugged from the wall socket.

Yes! Got mine for 17k, bought a 32gig memory card for 2600 so total cost was 19600, still very OK if you ask me!

Okay, I can't guarantee this would work tho

Drain the battery to anything below 10%

switch off mobile phone

charge for 4-5hrs straight(even if its filled or doesn't increase leave it)

unplugged charger, then switch ON

Note: Draining your battery less than 15% often is harmful, try to recharge once battery is lower than 40%... only drain to less than 15% and charge till filled one/twice a month(its called healthy charge but can't be harmful when overdone)

like I said at the beginning, I'm no engineer, probability of this helping you is "inconclusive"... but if it does, drop a thing or 2 in the hands of that street begger... he deserves a great Christmas too

Calling all M3 mini users!... Assemble!

since kingroot is yet to look our side(though I haven't tried it recently)... I decided to check on Hovateck who seems to be busy porting TWRP for Newer device like the Zero 3 and L5... He said he actually needed some files from the M3 mini(which he can't lay hands on at the moment)... if we can upload the files for him, he did get us TWRP in a no distant time

Problem
My PC decided to visit her ancestors recently, as such I can't get the files myself

Solution
Anybody with a PC can get the files, it wouldn't harm or destroy your device

well he needs the recovery.img, boot.IMG and scatter file... though its been long since I ported a ROM and messed around with android source files but I think a nandroid backup with MTK droid tools normally contains all three files along side a lot of other files like data, system etc.

so anyone one with a PC, should volunteer to help, I think I can guide you through the process

Damn, I just sold off my PC this week. Tho when it was still around I couldn't get MTK droid tools to detect the phone. Installed every driver I could get my hands on.

It uses a special driver or something?

maybe its your OS version, win10 or 8 doesn't work well with most apps, 7 and XP are the best... Or maybe you were using mt65xx drivers which won't work cus you're using a mt67xx device

anyway thanks

whilst still working on a way to get this phone rooted

I actually discovered something new today, it seems to only work when DTS is ON and only appears when you don't have an earpiece plugged in

check it out... it called volume strengthening
