She compared the picture I took with the one she has taken with her S9+
She's probably a novice when it comes to camera sha
Its a wrong way to compare, try and make her understand, people should stop comparing that way, it's like comparing the sizes of two shirts taken on different pictures grin. The weather conditions you took yours is different from hers. Things like dust, smoke which affect visibility affect camera performance. Even if you take two different pics at thesame time in different places, quality can never be totally equivalent. If she wants to know the better camera, she has to use both to snap at the same time, same place, same subjects and scenes.

Every time I lock my phone, any apps still running, close after a while and therefore I end up missing notifications from apps like WhatsApp, twitter and co. Please guys, how can I rectify it? It started all of a sudden, not like it came out of the box like that!

PS; I use Xiaomi Mi 9.

For those asking about the android TV box, that's the link below. You can select the specs you want from the options. I bought the 4gb 32gb version with keyboard included.

Abeg oh, I just buy Mi A3 and e never reach one week.
1). So please make una tell me all I need to know about this device. The ups and downs.
2). Secondly, what are the differences between the MIUI and Android One?
3). What is Gcam and how do I use it on my Mi A3?

Thank you all. Have a great week ahead.

Thank you all. Have a great week ahead.

1. Mi A3 only downs as far as I know is the screen resolution 730p+
2. MIUI is Xiaomi android skin and it's baked with features not found on stock Android. Android one is a slightly modified stock android and it gets access to timely updates.
3. GCam is Google Camera made for Google Pixel devices but developers have manage to port it to non pixel devices and Mi A3 supports it. You only have to download and install no big deal about it.

4. You use an Android one and you have no business with Chinese ROM and Global ROM but if you need clarification about the two see Jboixxx compilation list. It is there, it has been answered severally. No energy to start typing.

If his Mi account is signed in the thief can't use the phone even if a factory reset is done
U mean no workaround to this yet?
My advice is to unlock d phone from mi cloud to enable the thief to make use of the phone, it will make it easier for police to track
Police tracking ranges from 10-15k depending on ur location tho, some states may be higher tho, just ensure u knw som1 that will help do gud followup, police are crooks we all know.

Its available. He can get any phone or pc, log into micloud.com and lock the phone, wipe data or make it ring loud. You can even decide to leave a message with your number so that whoever sees it will contact you, not even factory reset will save the thief. In this case, will advise him to be patient and not lock the phone, there's more hope of retrieving it that way. If he locks it it's useless to both thief and owner.
All of these wont work bro, u knw why?
D first priority of the thief is to factory reset the phone and once dat is done, mi cloud won't detect the phone again.
Unfortunately, the thief will realise he can't use it after a factory reset
Once I get a new Redmi, I will try some workarounds whether d cloud lock can be beaten(if no workarounds yet), I'm sure d cloud lock must have it limitation as well

My Redmi 7 dat was stolen neva came online since dat day they stole it, so cloud tracking is useless
