Did someone test GPS? - Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers

Apparently he has a super gps up to 30cm accuracy.
And if someone could paste the settings
gps.xml file that exactly are.
BCM4775X
https://docs.broadcom.com/docs-and-downloads/collateral/pb/4775X-PB100.pdf

30cm
Dual GPS means L1 and L5. This means "big buildings" will not be anymore a problem.

Is the dual-frequency GPS chip (BCM47755) exclusive to the Xiaomi Mi 8, or is it also in the SE and Explorer Edition?

For sure not for 8 SE!
By the way, with latest China stable ROM, GPS is bad. 13 to 16m

GPS is bad for Mi 8 or the 8 SE?

Maybe L5 is not transmitting in your region?
I heard only 30 satellites are currently transmitting L5 band, they might only cover U.S. or might even be part of it still in testing phase therefore is not working.

Phones with L1 and without L5 got ~3m.
Phones with L1 and L5 got >10m.
Now think about that...

tested Mi8 in Vietnam today with S9+.
S9+ got 3m
Mi8 got 16m
test with some GPS app maybe L5 is not actived yet or the phone cant use its profit for now

Dude, you S9+ don't got L5 and "score" better, than the device with L1 and L5. Even when L5 is not working, it need to be 3m.

This one is an interesting article : https://medium.com/@sjbarbeau/dual-frequency-gnss-on-android-devices-152b8826e1c
If the mi 8 still doesn't have stable gps I might have to pass up on this phone

Anyone tried the gps on miui 10?
Even if on the gpstest app says 16m accuracy, but if you open google maps is the position actually accurate?
Anyone can compare to another phone if the mi8 is actually giving a more accurate position on Google maps?

Mi6 vs. Mi8.
Mi8 is correct, on the spot.

So mi 8 is actually more accurate than mi 6.
How many meters is the accuracy in the gpstest app?

16, about how much the Mi6 is off.
edit: iPhone 8 is as off as Mi6, but on the other side of the building. iPhone 6s got the same result.

Here you go

Real accuracy
Someone with Xiaomi mi 8 can install a geodetic application like Hi-Q set it to your coordinate system, go to a geodetic point with known coordinates, measure it and compare the coordinates and tell the results. These accuracy apps don't show real accuracy !!!

Glonass is a worldwide network of satellites, the same as GPS. You can access it anywhere.
Unless you somehow mean that you're not permitted to use it in those countries, in which case I would like a link to somewhere that says that, as I'm unable to find information on any such restrictions.

I already asked this, but can you link to somewhere that specifically says Austria and Germany don't have access and explains why? Purely because I'm interested.
It would be surprising if they produced a model without the necessary hardware just for those 2 countries.
Edit - I had a play around and I initially didn't have Glonass satellites when getting a lock. I hadn't actually checked before and just assumed it worked as the Snapdragon S4 Pro definitely has the capability.
You can see on the map view with GPS test if you have Glonass satellites available. They show as triangles.
I used Faster GPS (requires root) to set the correct region and ntp server and then had Glonass satellites available. Might be worth trying that to see if it helps you.

I think the GLONASS receiver is only activated in situations where it's not possible to get a lock with GPS alone.
The Sony site I linked to before has this to say -
To save power, the GLONASS receiver is only activated in problematic locations, such as in an urban environment with high rise buildings. Therefore, if you are in an open sky environment where there are enough GPS satellites available to calculate a good accuracy position, GLONASS will automatically be switched off temporarily to enhance the battery lifetime.

The thing is... I am in some building at the moment, and of course gps is bad,...
But it don't try to lock on glonass... It actually never does...
Stupid thing...
And last but not least:
In the software from Z1 and Z2 there is an setting for glonass.
In XZ there isn't....
I don't know..... Strange thing...
But thanks for help..

Ok, i tried around a bit, and it seems to really change to some glonass sats if there are to less gps ones,
It was looking to me like it doesn't cause most apps only show the gps ones and in settings only is a setting for gps... What use to mean both modes in one function... I think..
However, it is not changing the modes (gps or glonass), but take by bad connection some of both the same time...
As seen in the gps-test tool....

MI note dual sim/ dual standby seems not to work
does anyone have a dual sim working on one of these? mine doesn't work, it looks like a hardware problem from what i can find elsewhere (see Miui forum)
Love its monster size and great screen diasplay
Love its monster size and great screen diasplay, still have much expectation on it. But it seems still hard to buy original one.

yeah it is 2700 .. hm strange..
but it might perform same as mate 7 ..
and even weirdest thing is they switched to AMOLED ..
http://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/worldwide/mateS/specifications.htm
2700 is a joke... Especially for a Powe user..
Looking forward to see the battery test, but if it wasnt for the battery I could have pre ordered it right now.
I thought Huawei was more intelligent than that and did not jump on the small battery trend.. and instead having the biggest batteries on the market..
I wonder in what time frame we can expect Mate 8... which will have kirrin 950 and most likely 20 megapixel camera.
I really like the 2D glass..
Big screen, huge battery, decent screen to body ratio, this is why I bought HAM7 and this is why I started following HAM1 and HAM2.
I hope the battery spec is a typo
Dang, Huawei has always been on top with their batteries. Would be a shame if they slipped up with this device.... That's one thing they will have over top of all these other OEM's. Huawei is going to instill fear in all of them hahaha.

Well, guess testing needs to be done to see how the battery life is. Makes me curious if they changed up the system and frameworks to accommodate for the battery life.

There are quite powerfull tools to allow selectably kill background tasks when screen is off, another to pick which apps have access to data connection (wifi/mobile separately). But not sure if they are able to limit general system draw to allow longer uptime. Disconnected from charger this morning, playing with phone quite lot and still have 59% battery. But by playing I mean setting it up, not playing games. Seems to me like usuall one day of power use, or two day of limited. No surprise here unfortunatelly, hoped for 4000+ mAh battery like old Mate 7...

There's quite a few phones that have launched without NFC which I couldn't understand and with the conflicting information of the Mate S I'm in two minds. I'm going to pre order so I guess I'll find out when I get it.
Oppo R7 Plus, OnePlus 2 and few other new releases without NFC. I know a lot of people don't use it yet but with Android Pay round the corner I can't see what manufacturers leave it out. Doesn't cost much to put in NFC. Hmmm

The Mate S I have with me doesn't see my 5G WiFi network, only the 2.4 wifis. My "old" G3 has no problem handlng the 5G nets.
The battery is 2700. It's not bad compared to the G3. More later.
I t completely doesn't matter if it supports only WiFi 2G and not 5G..
My GF has P7 which has only 2G and she doesn't complain about it.. internet works perfect in the whole house..

Should i switch to a Redmi Note 5 (Pro) 636? Any Alternatives?

Hi guys, i've been playing around with this Mi a2 for the last week, and so far i'm not satisfied at all with it. The lack of the jack, the poor battery life even with greenify (around 4h of screen) and the lack of an active community around it are some of the reasons why i'm considering to take advantage of the amazon return policy and get something else. Should i get a Note 5 Global 636 (Pro) or a MI A2 lite? Do you have any alternatives in mind around 200 euro?
Wait for either Redmi Note 6 Pro (battery) or Mi 8 Youth (almost same as Mi A2 w/o jack and sd card slot but good design with notch and MIUI)
I would go for the Note 5 Pro if you don't mind MIUI since it looks exactly like the A2, only a tad thicker because of the battery, but because of it, the camera bump doesn't protrude as much.
If you can't live with MIUI, then definitely go for the A2 Lite. Can't beat the value.
Do note that the 636 is notably more powerful, and has especially better DSP meaning that you can take photos faster on the 636, but at the end of the day, it all depends on how you use the phone and what works for you.

So that's why you have only 4 hours of screen on time.
As you can read in that thread, the bug is caused by the Goodix fingerprint sensor. Waiting for a fixing update, just disable the fingerprint sensor for now and you'll not have the bug anylonger.

Thanks for the advice, disabling the fingerprint lock got me another half an hour of SOT. Which is nice, but far from what i would get on a mi a2 lite or a note 5 pro.

Giving that the mi a2, the mi a2 lite and the note 5 (pro) in italy on amazon are around the same price i think i will go with the note 5 (pro) and flash lineageos on it to get rid of the miui.

Did you have problems when starting the new system (Android 13) with Poco Launcher? I had to switch to another launcher and now I can't use the button to view the used apps. I can't even change the classic keys to gestures.

Why would I be using Poco launcher if this is a Redmi?
Where are you from?

Sorry, it's my mistake, I thought it was referring to poco m3 pro and not redmi. I haven't read that it applies to redmi note 10 pro.

Is it worth buying? I am thinking about buying it for my wife.
Edit: I bought Redmi Note 10 5G and I am so happy because my wife is happy.

Depends what your wife would do with it. Battery life is good, CPU is decent for the price. But the phone can lag around in MIUI. Camera is acceptable.
Thanks, you know women. Camera. lol

honestly, you should spend a bit more on a redmi note 11
it offers a better camera (50mp, but it has a bigger sensor which = more detail and more widely light capturing avail, great for her id say), a powerful cpu (Snapdragon 680, it also uses a different processing than the mediatek of the redmi note 10 5g) and a better display (amoled, 120hz), for id say 15-30 more?
ur choice, but the redmi note 11 is great for the 10 5g budget

Yeah! I have note 10 5G for about 1yr
Display Brightness is only 400nits so
display is too dark in sunlight , 18W is not enough for 5000mah battery and OB48B is not good as N11 4G's Samsung sensor, display is too bad at colour production, go dimensity 700 for 5G only otherwise sd680 is better at overall! spend a few dollars for N11 4g or note 12 5g
*I also have dimemsity 1000+
and I believe mtk chips are on-paper tigers!
