Well that's why the duty to be paid is high but who says you can't buy insurance on a goods declared as gift? Does it mean that once its a gift, it can get lost and the courier not under any obligation to deliver it safely? NO ....they owe you that service!


Point of correction, once it's declared as gift there's no more obligation on the part of the courier to replace your item if it goes missing or get damaged in transit. One can't really trust those boys at the docks you know.

Or do you really want to find out the hard way?

I play Asphalt 9 flawlessly on my redmi 6 pro and it runs smoothly; and thats an SD 625 processor. It should run on your redmi note 6 pro flawlessly also with that SD 636

By the way, using third party themes will slow down system functionality. This is from my own personal experience with third party themes; this iOS theme in particular sef.

I had to revert back to the default theme.

shocked Hearing the bolded for the first time in all my years of using MIUI, both ported to other OEM device or Xiaomi phone for that matter.

That's a fallacy btw

It's what I have experienced myself.... I didn't just say that based on what I read online.

Monitor your Activities closely and you will notice it..

Most times when I use third party themes, the memory allocated to the apps on the multi tasking window always increase as compared to what will be allocated when using the default theme. And as you know, as you consume more RAM, you have the tendency of your phone slowing down a lil bit.

Not just that, I also noticed that my wallpaper carousel does not work when using a third party theme. It will just be stagnant with the default one I used without changing like the normal wallpaper carousel algorithm.

Those are the two I can remember for now

Thanks bruh. I know about that post from an India guy or so ...but e nor work o...like map decides when to function. I'm sure suspecting this Xiaomi thing of suppressing Google products

Wow shocked. You mean you did all the suggestions in that post and it still didn't work? shocked.

And why would xiaomi try to suppress Google products on Android (which is developed by Google)? I am curiously curious about that suggestion.
Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by Goahead(m): 10:50pm On Nov 22, 2018
I don't know how many we are here, but those who are still using Redmi note 4 should definitely go ahead and update their devices.

Xiaomi fine-tuned this upgrade to acceptable perfection.

Hmm, I get the angle you're coming from. Default themes are snappy no doubt. Personally I attribute their snappiness to their lightweight nature. Try a third-party theme that is light weight (usually the ones marked lite) and you'll notice there is no difference in responsiveness when compared to default themes.

Your point on RAM usage is actually the opposite, at least on Android. The more apps your phone keeps in memory, the faster it will take to load them. This I believe is why OEMs keep increasing the RAM sizes to accommodate even more preloaded apps. With the inclusion of AI the system should be able to predict your usage patterns and keep your commonly used apps in memory.

If you're in the habit of clearing your RAM, just chill & let the system do the cleaning and you'll notice the difference.

AI app usage(RAM) is kinda new, my last Xiaomi doesn't do such(MIUI 9), I had to be clearing my memory every now and then to increase phone speed a little.

But as for your opinion on the AI RAM management, I think I have notice that on my recent Xiaomi upgrade

On older Xiaomi devices RAM management really sucked sha, with MIUI dragging resources with your apps grin

Xiaomi has really come a long way but they still need to optimise these devices more.

Customs just billed me N8250 on Redmi note 5.The seller declared $40 as the value. Well, i am never ordering a phone or anything of value on aliexpress again. It makes no sense to wait for 3 weeks, then you are made to pay heavy duties on the item. It's better i buy from Jumia from henceforth. I am so pissed right now.
.
My advise to anyone planning to order, just save yourself the stress and buy from the nairaland guys or jumia. With customs slapping random fees on phones, it's not just worth the wait! Anyways, na life lesson.

I think people should learn to drop reviews on aliexpress about custom duties, that way others can decide if they still want to take the risk and order.

From m6 to S8 .. from S8 to xiaomi note 5 within a year

The funny thing is Nigerians(including you) will still be complaining that Buhari has brought hardship to Nigeria

What model of Xiaomi?

totally close the app and the restart it, make sure your internet is great. Then proceed with the download.

As long as youre downloading via the official update app, you're not really supposed to face this issue though

Yeah, I was able to download it successfully after updating download manager and some system apps. But I didn't notice any difference between the version 9 and v10. May it's because I'm new to system updating. Thanks.
