Get the .mtz from the link below. Use theme manager to import it. But you won't be able to apply it

Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by Theloveth(m): 1:10pm On Feb 26, 2017
Good afternoon my people. I have been a silent follower of the thread with the hope of getting to know about Xiaomi phones and how to get one. Today, I transferred 35k to my sister's Gtbank account to try and load my alipocket but I could not. Tried 100$ but it was not working, then I tried $20 and I was getting insufficient fund after the OTP page. This is despite the fact that there is enough money in the account. Please help me with this. And I hope to use like 3 different Gtb accounts to fund my pocket. Hope am lucky.

If your phone is rooted and you're running Marshmallow or lower, there's an Xposed module that enables you to bypass that.

There you go:

The procedure above uses Xposed for Lollipop.
Just flash the TWRP for your device and download Xposed for Marshmallow and you're good to go.

Is the card linked to Savings and Current account? If yes, transfer the money to the default account (Current), then you're good to go.

PLEASE HELP. My GTBank Naira Mastercard can buy things on Aliexpress but can't fund my Aliexpress pocket. Keep showing error page.
Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by nadalion: 4:16pm On Feb 26, 2017

Welcome to the Xiaomi thread.
Prerequisites:
-A GTB and Access Bank account enabled for internet banking. Other banks eg Stanbic, FCMB etc work but you'll be charged at a higher rate.
(You'll need 2 accounts because your order is above $100 and due to the forex crisis banks limit forex transactions to $100 monthly. FYI GTB charges ₦320/$ and Access Bank charges ₦325/$)
-An AliExpress account
-Aliexpress app on your phone (new members get coupons)
Activating Your Card For Internet Transactions
Have you paid for stuff online before, whether Nigerian or international sites?
If no then you'll have to activate your card for internet banking.
For VISA card you'll need to go to your bank's ATM(I hear you can use any ATM) slot in your ATM and insert your PIN.
Then select "Change PIN"
You'll see a "Change I-PIN" button, click on it.
Now insert your I-PIN (something easy to remember but hard to forget)
For added security use a different pin from your usual ATM pin so if one is compromised the other is safe.
The I-PIN is the PIN you'll use to verify the transaction if you want to buy things online.

For MasterCard eg GTB's MasterCard, you'll have to go to the branch and fill a form to enable internet banking.

Funding AliExpress Pocket
Download the app, create an account.
On the My Account tab on the app you'll see My AliExpress Pocket, click on it and fund your AliExpress Pocket with about $100 (if $100 doesn't work at once then select it in multiples eg $20 * 5 or $50 * 2)
Search for the device you want to buy select buy now, you'll see an option to use your AliExpress Pocket, tick it.
Then use your other ATM to complete the transaction.

About Appeals:
You don't have to appeal before you fund your AliExpress Pocket.

Sometimes people are told to appeal for security reasons, to verify you're the owner/handler of the card, mostly when you use a card that isn't in your name to fund the pocket.
In that case you'll be told to upload a picture of the ATM card(you can block out some numbers for security purposes), identification (eg passport, voters card, birth certificate [don't know if they still collect these], or international passport), and a recent bank statement of the account you were told to appeal.

After 3-5 business days the details will be verified and you can use that card (that doesn't bear your name) to fund your pocket in the future without hassles.

About Collection:
The package will be delivered to the nearest post office and you'll be notified by the post office (either by call or text, or they'll bring a slip to your house) that you have an item waiting for collection at the post office.
You might be charged a ₦500 "handling fee" upon collection of the item.
Happy buying!

It's a savings account. And I have used it for online transactions before. Don't know what the problem is.

There's not much difference per se.
AliExpress pocket is AliExpress' wallet.
You can use it to "store" money to be spent on AliExpress.
An advantage is that refunds are faster when bought with the funds in your pocket because there's no need to go through the bank.

The real advantage and main reason we use it in this thread is to bypass the forex restrictions/ limit on Bank accounts.
Banks only allow you to spend $100 monthly for forex transactions, so if you want to buy an item higher than $100 you wouldn't be able to.

If you use one bank's ATM to fund your pocket it's like you deposit money there, and you can now combine that money in the pocket with the one in a different bank's ATM whose monthly limit you haven't exceeded.
