Very first time of hearing about this bug

Can you shed more light?
It's basically what I said in my post. The message flashes at the bottom of my screen then it reboots immediately, and it continues like that until I do a factory reset on the phone. The second time it happened was when I opened the Security app. I have no idea what triggered it the first time.

It seems the Find Device and Security apps are connected somehow and as they're both system apps I can't just disable them to fix the problem.

I've reported the issue but I have no idea if they'll actually help me. Right now I'm using the phone without setting it up completely because it could happen again and I don't want to waste my time and data with another factory reset.

When did you buy the phone? I think you should get a replacement if it's not less than a week you ordered it, I use the note9 pro which is a similar device with 9s and don't experience these problems.

I got the phone yesterday and I'm currently experiencing a very frustrating bug. A message saying "find device has unexpectedly closed" will flash across my screen and then the phone will reboot itself. When I unlock it again, it repeats itself making the phone unusable.
When it happened the first time, I did a factory reset on the phone and updated the os to miui 12.
I was able to use the phone for hours without any problems but it has started again this morning. Do you have any idea how I can fix it. This is really annoying

Hmmm I don't understand what you mean actually, have you been to the Xiaomi thread perhaps you'll find some help there, I really haven't heard this kind of bug before

More so other note 9s users haven't been reporting this on the Mi community and you should know how people report bugs and complain about the delay in releasing miui 12 updates on it

Go to the Xiaomi thread try to get a screenshot of that issue when it happens again or use another phone to snap it along with your 'about device' section
I'll help you check online if it's a general problem that can be fixed, there's no way you'll buy a phone of 98k and I'll tell you to manage it

If it's too disturbing you might have to return it
I'll get back to you later

I just did a factory reset. I don't think that's what solved the issue though. I guess it just went away on its own. I really hope it doesn't come back.

Redmi Note 9S. But I did some research online and I discovered that it's a recent bug that has been affecting some random Xiamomi devices.
The issue seems to have gone on its own cos I've been using the phone without problem.

[quote author=Mark23 post=95804199]Please it's URGENT!

My current phone saw my current financial situation and decided that this is the best time for it to get spoilt so right now I have to buy a new phone that I didn't plan for at all.
The thing is, I know next to nothing when it comes to phones so I need recommendations from you guys so I can get the best value for my money.

My budget is ~100k

I just have a few things I'm looking for:
First of all, I do a lot of multitasking on my phone, so I'm looking for something that won't lag while running multiple apps. I need something that'll allow quick and smooth transitions between apps without closing them.

Secondly, I need a lot of storage space on my phone cos I have a bad habit of not deleting my files.

Also, if the phone has inbuilt features for hiding apps and files that will be very great. I'm paranoid about police officers going through my phone and labeling me a fraudster because of the contents in it.

I use my phone a lot so I'd love something with decent battery life. I have a power bank but I've been told these things are bad for your battery health in the long run.

Finally, I need something that I can use for more than a year. A phone whose power button won't break after a few months or whose screen won't break due to a small fall etc.

I sincerely hope I'm not asking for too much given my budget lol. I might be able to go a little over that amount if there's something that meets all my requirements.

I also want to know if I should take advantage of the Black Friday deals on Jumia. I've heard those things are scams but I don't really know.

I don't want Tecno, Infinix, or anything like that please grin . Thanks

brother you should get the oppo reno 3. i have heard some good reviews for it especially because it has the mediatek helio P90 processor. my friend said that it has a big battery and can be used almost all day without charge. you should check it out.

I think the Oppo Reno 3 will be a good one for a budget price. I think you should consider buying that phone. It has good features and strong specs with a decent mediatek processor
Re: I Need Phone Recommendations For A Budget Of 100k by harryodilli19(m): 3:30pm On Mar 09, 2021
i agree with the praise for oppo reno 3. it has really solid features plus quite a nice camera. the helio P90 chipset is decent too.

Really thankful for growth. #100,000 many years ago would have been lavished on dresses and shoes. Don't get me wrong, these things are not bad. Sincerely everything is digital. To survive this age, you need a live safer (good phone). I literally do everything with my phone. I recommend Tecno Camon 16. I really have a track record of bad phones. Few properties I am familiar with is that it has 128GB ROM +6GB RAM. Super video mode. Has a 64MP ultra quad Camera. Is worth giving it a try.

I'm back now
And here are my findings


There are 3 phones from 3 cool brands that suit your specs


The very first is
Xiaomi Redmi note 9s
98,000

The second is
Umidigi f2
At least 89,000

The third is
Samsung galaxy a31
92,000 (black Friday)

Now these 3 devices are very similar

They are all 6gb RAM and 128gb ROM
and they all have 5000 mah battery

However their processors set them apart from eachother

In terms of processing power the Xiaomi Redmi note 9s is the absolute winner of the trio because it's got a powerful Snapdragon 720g

The Umidigi is in second place with a mediatek Helio p70
And the Samsung in in third place with a mediatek Helio p65

Now all these phones are very good phones no doubt, they all come with a quad camera set up

But only the redmi note 9s supports 4k video recording
Let's not forget that if you wished you could get gcam for the redmi note 9s to further enhance its already impeccable camera performance because it's running on Snapdragon

Now let's get down to the screen
The Redmi note 9s has an Fhd+ LCD ips screen
LCD screens are known to be color accurate

The screen resolution is at 1080 * 2400p
So it's really high and if you get videos at 1080p or play a game that can be upscaled to that level you'll have a crystal clear and crisp experience
It's also got a Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection and will hold for drops as high as 6ft (it can probably withstand fall damage from greater heights but 6ft is the only review I've seen)

Now the GPU!!
The GPU is an adreno 618 I'll gonna skip all the tech jargons and give it to you plainly
It's an insanely good gpu

I use a Snapdragon 665 myself with an adreno 610 gpu and I know the kinds of games I've run on "very high" graphics settings


With 6gb ram and a Snapdragon 720g CPU that has top speeds of 2.3ghz of 4 of 8 cores multi tasking wouldn't be a problem at all

Now for the bonus
Miui 12 is one of the best UIs out there because it's got loads of features that includes hiding apps or second space which simulates another android device on your phone almost like the multiple users function on windows
And it's highly customisable too

I implore you to watch the video in the link so as to have a full understanding of MIUI 12 multitasking functions which minimises most system apps and social media apps as a floating window on top of whichever app you're currently using without having to switch from one app to another

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1abcyZgL-EU

Redmi note 9s is really the phone for you

Fantastic review, you just solved my problem.

Thanks.
