The Cubot Note 20 Pro is a popular entry-level Android launched globally in mid-2020, running stock Android 10 on a MediaTek Helio P60 (MT6771) octa-core chip. It boasts a 6.5″ HD+ display (1600×720 px), 8GB RAM, 128GB storage (expandable), quad rear cameras (20MP + 12MP + 2×0.3MP), 8MP selfie, NFC, face unlock, dual SIM, and a 4200mAh battery. Its value focus and large RAM make it attractive, but users have flagged persistent bugs—especially after firmware updates.
Community complaints include rapid battery drain, random black screens, charging stuck at ~80–90%, touch lag or ghost input, camera app freezing, SIM or network dropping (especially after updates), and laggy UI if storage fills. Flashing the correct Note 20 Pro firmware (matching region/build) resolves most recurring bugs, restores performance, and unbricks bootlooped devices.
Critical Notice: Before You Proceed
Flashing Cubot Note 20 Pro firmware wipes all data, apps, IMEI/network info. Backup Google, photos, and IMEI before flash! Only use MT6771/Helio P60 ROM—not for Note 20 “Lite” or other Cubots. Wrong flash risks screen or network damage.

Most-Reported Cubot Note 20 Pro Problems & Fixes
1. Fast Battery Drain or Won’t Charge Over 85%
Battery sometimes discharges quickly or stalls at 85–90%. Clean USB port, use quality charger, recalibrate via full charge/discharge, and reflash firmware if update triggered the issue.
2. Black Screen/Random Shutdown
Phone may randomly refuse to turn on. Remove/reinsert battery, long-hold Power+VolUp, and if still stuck, reflash official ROM to restore boot.
3. Camera Hangs/Blurry or Freeze
Freezing, blank camera, or poor focus reported often. Use only the stock Camera app (no third party), keep >2GB storage free, and update firmware if issues persist.
4. Touchscreen Lag, Ghost Taps, or Slow UI
Screen lag/ghost taps after major app updates—remove worn screen protectors, restart device, and fresh ROM flash fixes most digitizer bugs.
