Friends, ordered a Redmi 1S today to replace my wife's Xperia L. Might get it by Friday.

After reading the reviews of that phone on flipkart, I believe the first thing to do to reduce heating and improve battery life should be to root the phone and underclock the processor to 1.2 GHz. What do you guys think? Would getting new updates become a problem if I do that?

Update to the latest V45 ROM, then root and install nofrillzcpu and under clock it. It will reduce the heat considerably, but it still can get warm. You can't OTA update if you are rooted, but you can download any new ROM in pc, transfer it to phone and update.


A friend of mine has Redmi 1S in his cart till tomorrow evening. If anyone wants please pm me. Can be ordered if COD is available.

Nah no need to do anything other than updating it to v45. It's doesnt' heat much unless you're using it while charging or gaming for long.
I'm using it since I say 20 days or so no heating issue experienced so far. I play Clash of Clans very often it doesn't heat much.

Experienced my first problem today with Redmi1s. It was saying Mobile Network not available even though SIM was available. Had to reinsert SIM and restart phone. Since phone was with my mom whole day I was not able to contact had to come from office and do the troubleshooting.

Do not update it to latest version(v45)Some redmi 1S user are saying after updating UI is laggy due to aggressive CPU throttling .Root your phone install coolify or you may try one power guard make sure you select conservative.

Corrected.

I don't understand. How is the UI smooth if CPU is aggressively throttled?

Guys if I have the lite version enabled will I not have access to the notification area at the top of the window.
In lite version it's quite inconvenient to go to setting and enable or disable Wi-fi.
