There's just something about nova that makes me like it. Customization, speed, fluidity just name it wink. Nova has been my go to launcher for 4years plus now and it gets better eith every update

Likewise the listed ones. I personally do not dig nova....
Apps are individualistic in nature........

I need some help, I pray this is the appropriate place to get it. My redmi note 4 started acting up yesterday. The touch pad randomly selects and operates itself, I had restarted the phone severally to no avail. Kindly help out
Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by abolore80(m): 7:37am On Dec 19, 2017
Weldone xiaomites. Eager to join the club, but my fears are non availability of support service for xiaomi users in Nigeria.
any hardware faults like charging port, screen and the likes can't be sourced here, you have to order and then search for who to fix it again.
I have selected R4X on geekbuying already to be ordered soon, but may cancel it because there is no support service for their phones like we have for tecno and infinix here in Nigeria.
Guys, how have you been coping with hardware repairs, i like xiaomi phones, but absense of support service is a turn off for me. What is the way forward guys.
Xiaomi gurus should please respond before i change my mind. cheers!

Why bother about service center when you are buying a premium device? In a rare chance that there are any hardware problem, the techy gurus will have here will sort you out re what to do which is really basic and straight forward. Do not let the absence of "service center" bother you. You will be fine.


I have never bought a phone based on the availability of service centers or not, I buy premium. I sleep well at night. Simple.

Screenshot the about section of your phone.

What type of screen guard do you have?

Did the phone get wet mistakenly?

We view customizations differently........ I get what I expect from them.......

Aesthetic - wise, they are simple and easy, just the way I love them...... Drama - free.....

I understand the feeling and that was what delayed me from joining Xiaomi family for long. I was so used to visiting Carl Care that I can't imagine using a phone without Care center agent in Nigeria. But have you ever imagined using a phone so good and strong where you may never need to visit a Care service agent? That's Xiaomi. I have been using a redmi note 4 for the past three months and there's no going back to tecno/infinix/itel! The last phone I sued was infinix note 4 and I have to repair the charging port after just two months of purchase. People use HTC and iPhones and they don't worry about care center because those phones are premium and they dont develop faults anyhow. Ultimately its your choice.
a. Choose a sub-standard phone susceptible to faults but have customer care service agents that will repair your phone for a fee, even under warranty
b. Choose a premium phone so strong it may never develop faults, hence you may not need customer care center; use it till you get tired of using it and even sell it off at good price.

Microsoft launcher doesn't show ads, that I know for sure. And it is the most customizable launcher I know of. It is in the same category as nova launcher prime but free of charge.

The only thing I wish I could change is to make it pull news from Google instead of Bing. But the default search engine can be set to Google.

Bros,we accept,you are a fan of microsoft launcher and its a very good launcher,but when real android reviewers dey list the the best launcher,NOVA and Action launcher would always come first,with NOVA been the number 1,its the best launcher avail till date.

This place is better than carlcare, how do you think we have so much users here who don't worry about such? If by chance you need to get any part replaced, you don't even need any special technician to fix it for you, some us even fixed hardwares ourselves just by watching YouTube videos. Fixing is not complicated as you believe, virtually anyone who can fix any other phone can fix Xiaomi phones.

Thanks guys for your prompt response, appreciated. I've made up my mind to go ahead with the order and then become a xiaomite.
Am about to make the order, but am seeing many version such as HK stock global version, HK stock EU plug version, HK stock Global ROM, HK stock package B Global version. I don't really know which stock is good in Nigeria.
I want a phone of 5.0inches or 5.1 or 2inches, something that will easily fit into my pockets. i have chosen xiaomi redmi 4x, bacuase it 5.0inches, but am also looking at redmi note 4, but i think its 5.5inches.
The bros, that just got his xiaomi redmi 4x should please review for us. Users of redmi note 4 should review theirs as well, hope its not too big.
Gurus please, respond to the versions Hk global etc i talked about. Cheers!

from gearbest? Both fones are great, but the redmi note 4 has an edge which is ba3 life n beta processor. U can go for any depending on ur budget. I don't think aliexpress has this hk global stuff. Just look for global versions of the two, it comes pre installed with Google play services and apps
