After collecting the VISA card, have you activated/setup the iPin for the card?


If yes, after inputing d iPin on aliexpress, otp should be sent to up registered phone number on ur account with access bank


After inputting my I-pin. What I got was the error message that one time password delivery not available.

In my case, I've a token, and signed up for VbyV (Verified by Visa). Whenever I try to do a transaction on websites such as Aliexpress that supports VbyV verification, I'm requested to input my VbyV password, and then my transaction goes without hitch.

Is your bootloader unlocked?
If it is you can just flash the superu zip via TWRP (You don't need root to flash TWRP)

Or alternatively if you don't want to unlock your bootloader you can flash Chinese Dev ROM.
it comes prerooted.

You got yourself a good phone, the snapdragon 801 with Adreno 330 is a better chip than the 430 in redmi 4a, two years on it ( one plus) and it still flies, just hope ZTE paired it with a well optimized software..

Abeg, how long does it take for shipping to arrive after confirmation?

Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by steevy(m): 5:12pm On Feb 16, 2017
So my phone arrived yesterday and i had some experiences i want to share with you all.
When i ordered my phone i used the OJOTA/OGUDU 100242 Code on my address.

I opened my tracker yesterday to find out my phone has arrived, i tried to go and collect the phone today since i stay around Ogudu and i found out that there is no post office in Ogudu or Ojota even tho Nipost website said that there was one.

I googled the nearest post office and saw a number under ikeja post office, called it and the guy told me to send the tracking so as to check if the phone was posted there.....i did that and later decided to visit the Ikeja post office myself. They told me at ikeja that the parcel was posted to Shomolu.

While there, the guy called back that the parcel was with them at Mushin, that i should send my address so it will be delivered to me and that i have to pay 6500 for delivery......i cut the call and went to Shomolu, met one woman, told her ikeja said my parcel is there, she looked at my address and told me it is not possible that the parcel was there. She didnt even want to check.

Another woman collected my tracking id, checked and told me that the parcel was there but they had moved it to Ketu few minutes ago. That i should go and collect tomorrow. She wrote a code on a paper and handed it to me telling me to go with 500 naira. I told her about the guy and she said that the person doesn't work for them.

You guys should beware of this scammer 08096196617. I later found out his number is registered to all the post offices on the Mainland in Google map. Truecaller identified him as Chybike Global services, Exporting. He is probably a private courier guy but lying to get business is criminal. Beware of Chybike.
