Lol this Ur experience is small February 13 2017.. I lost my job while going home someone took out my fone, a Samsung J7 with a 64gb card filled with songs
That same year I was robbed of my laptop....
February 7, 2019... My Fero Royale X2 phone was snatched at Agege while pressing it in the bus and yes with another 64 GB memory card
I did not die. ...I just borrow 44k to buy a Nokia 5 and another 64 GB sd card

Once there is life you can buy those items back



That circle of losses and pain is metaphysical bro, do not handle it with kids gloves, if you were my friend i would be avoiding you by now, who did you offend specifically?

Mine is two different experience that happen within this month of April
My itel 1508 was stolen on the 24th of march just last month while I was sleeping outside my hostel due to the heat.it left me frustrated,depressed, devastated and frustrated.
Then I have no other option but to withdraw 23k to buy a brand new techno F2.Another big issue started which was the Android OS consuming my data like a hungry lion. I did subscription of 1.5 Gig but with 6 hours the whole data was gone, I check my data usage and discovered that Android OS consume 95% of it. I did all the setting I could do still no solution in fact I gave more than 8 computer guys who were extremely brilliant still no solution, before I knew it tears start rolling from my eyes, my life was now in a state of pitable dilemma.
Then last week I just log onto my quora account and share my problem and a software guy from Singapore told me to download an app called DATAEYE from playstore and use it to control my usage. I did exactly what he said and to my utmost surprise the problem is solve, my data now runs at a normal rate. It was then I knew the distance between quora and nairaland.

Maybe I also need to go to Quora to share my problem about Glo and MTN network. angry Maybe that Singapore guy fit tell me something. cheesy

Well mine was a Samsung Galaxy Grand dual sim. Got it from the street when my main phone got stolen. Very useless phone. Imagine this phone was thinking more than me. Most things you press, it would think before responding. Very dull phone.

When a call comes in, it would think if to ring or not. Most times, it was almost at the end of a call before it starts ringing. undecided

I even had issue with my boss at the office because of this phone. I believe he thought I was delibrately missing his calls meanwhile it was this useless phone that was thinking if to ring and alert me or not. I had to get a small 'torchlight phone' before I lose my job.

Right now, I can't even remember where I dropped it, but I know it would be there thinking if I am coming to pick it up or not.

I know it was from the street but it has made me dislike Samsung. angry

Don't allow your emotion guide you, I brought the problem to Nairaland but not one person gave me a reply not until I log into quora.
Please as a man learn to be rational.

My worst phone experience was when an engineer spoilt my phone. I only went there to change battery connector but he ended up tampering with the panel which rendered the phone useless. I still curse him in my heart whenever I try to load a website on this phone I am using now and I get a `This page cannot be opened'.

SCENE 1

Mine was in 2011. I bought the ALMIGHTY NOKIA C1. After like a week, there was this announcement that M.I., Flavour, Nigga Raw, and Naeto C were coming to my town, so I swore to attend the party. We were at the party till 6 am, so I was chatting on the ALMIGHTY 2go. I was about going home and decided to take a keke drop, I was still negotiating the price when about four to five guys jumped out from nowhere and started dragging my phone with me o. At first I thought it was a joke until one of them slapped me and I saw the ALMIGHTY that lead the 3 wise men to Jesus, but still I didn't let go. This thing was happening in the midst of people but nobody came to my rescue. That was how they tore out about two buttons from shirt. I finally let go when one of them brushed me and I fell down. I lost one of my foot wears that early morning. I went home walking like a mad man!

SCENE 2

In 2013 my mother bought the ALMIGHTY TECNO M3 for me. I went to Enugu to hawk snacks. one faithful morning, one guy like that called me to buy meat Pie from me. So, like play, like joke the guy held my trousers and told me that if later he finds out that the meat Pie I am about to sell to him is not fresh that he is going to hold me like this when he catches me and I was busy laughing like mumu telling him that it's fresh. And I usually tie my phone in black nylon and put it in my trousers front pocket. so when the whole drama was over he didn't buy the snack o, but asked me to come over to a nearby bus so that he would collect money from his Oga and pay me. I went there but he was nowhere to be found. Alas! my pocket felt empty, i touched my pocket and it was truly empty!

SCENE 3

In 2015, I went back to the same Enugu,but wiser. I hustled and made N19,400. I bought the ALMIGHTY TECNO M6. The phone served me well untill the battery started misbehaving. Sometimes, I would insert a NOKIA battery into the phone. I can't remember how many times the phone fell from my hands. So around January 2019, I inserted NOKIA battery into the phone as usual and switched it on, i saw a vertical line...i thought may be i "overpadded" the battery, i removed the "padding" and switched it on...this time the lines were five. That was how the phone became blurry. Though I still use the phone occasionally, on 4th February, I bought the ALMIGHTY TECNO POUVOIR 2. I am still enjoying this beast!!!ut it in my trousers front pocket. so when the whole drama was over he didn't buy the snack o, but asked me to come over to a nearby bus so that he would collect money from his Oga and pay me.

Alas, the line were five. I still use the phone occasionally shaa.

SCENE 5

On 4th February 2019, I bought the ALMIGHTY TECNO POUVOIR 2 at N43,000. I am still enjoying this one!

In 2015, while trying to check the last game on my ticket (Bayern v werder Bremen), each time I refreshed the site the score line kept increasing, I thought my TECHNO H5 was misbehaving again so I angrily smashed the phone against the wall. The next day, I later heard that lewandowski scored 5 goals in 6 minutes....

Halezis:
I lost 3 phones last year. When i say 3, i mean they were stolen at different occasions and not once.

Was using a Tecno w3 from 2017 and it got stolen when i went for night class. that's few weeks before Easter 2018. Stayed for 3 months without any phone. Then, June, i was one of the first persons to buy infinix hot 6 when it was newly launched. Almost everyone around my area was envying the phone. Then, there was blackout in my area for days and i needed to do one assignment with it. So i went to one bet9ja shop to charge. They ganged up and stole the phone. Yes i knew it was a gang up because it was a very swift operation, got distracted by some guy asking if i could help him set up something on his phone only to finish and couldn't find a phone that was in between my legs. That was in August. So the phone literally lasted for a month and few weeks in my hand. Chaiii! Then went home long vacation, after a month, saved up some money and borrowed mumsy to complete and got a neww Samsung j6 phone in the first week of October. Mid December phone lost again but this one i can't even explain. Went for an event and came back only to notice my phone which was in my pocket since isn't there again. Sadly since then, i haven't been able to use any good phone up till nowsad


So, with all these experience someone will still tell me not to support jungle justice? Just wait till i see anyone caught stealing phone. Nonsense

In most issues i think a wrong charging cables are the problem or if the person is using a wrong charger adapter not sure the problem is from tecno
TonyeBarcanista:
I don't know why Tecno phones are like that. However, you should get original charger- Oriamo is what I'll recommend. If the situation persist, please you have to change that charging port.
