    After reaching home I tried charging it but it just showed a flickering screen with the charging logo.. I also tried plugging it into my laptop using usb but still the same thing.. one thing high I realised was that it might be not able to receive constant power supply due to some reason coz of which it's not able to start..
    My question is..
    What do you think sir shall I change the whole display assembly or their's some fault in the motherboard ?? Please help sir !!

    I need to ask u a question Gary i wondered about it so... If i underclock my snapdragon 820 or any cpu for the matter ik itll reduce the heat but what about the voltage? ... How much effect would it have on battery life.? . If i deactivate the cores and leave one on how much more efficient will it b in saving battery? .. Is there a limit to how low voltage it can take?.. And what about undervolting?.. Is it bad and dangerous(ik ull have to lower the frequency)?.. And how high can a snapdragon 820 b overclocked if it can?..I was wondering if it can b overclocked and perform just like the 821 without having to buy a phone with an 821.. Thx in advance

  • @peacefulexaulter2160

    My question is that is there a specific card inside the mobile that holds the internal storage, if yes (obviously) what's the name and can you remove it and put a higher GB one? Pls answer!

    • @JJFlores197
      @JJFlores197 3 года назад

      That greatly depends on the phone you have. Some phones have a micro SD card slot. If yours does, you can install a micro SD card for more storage. This doesn't replace the internal storage chip (called the NAND flash chip), but the SD card will appear as another storage device in the phone.
      External storage has slowly been fading away over the past several years so not that many phones still have it. If it does, it will be mentioned in its specifications.

She's thinking that the shop owner may changed her LavaZ41 mobile Cpu and Middle panel to old LavaZ41 mobile. But IMEI number is same and also she noticed that there's a memory card in the mobile after mobile servicing. But she didn't gave her mobile for servicing with the memory card. That's why i'm asking you please tell me
    Is it possible to change LavaZ41 mobile Cpu and Middle panel to another LavaZ41 mobile?
