please guys, can redmi 5 plus work with mtn network, mtn 2G, Mtn 3G, and Mtn 4G? i want to order it from aliexpress

Why going for Redmi 5 plus, that phone is outdated though still very much a good phone.

Why not get Redmi 8 or better still If it's because of cash look for some of the new releases of Redmi phone.

Also have it in mind that ordering from Aliexperess is 50/50 as per custom issues

@jiday4 the reason why am going for redmi note 5 is because of its features, it has compass, infrared port, any other new redmi series that are sold in nigeria that has this features is above N100k, the redmi 9A that is about N62k in nigeria doesn't have these features,

Custom do seize phones it's only by luck if the phone is not seize and you pay almost ×2 of the phone. But like I said it's 50/50 chance.

Have been ordering product from Aliexpress for year's too

You always like to disturb this thread.

Boss, I used Redmi Note 4X, lost it, then bought Redmi 5 plus, before I purchased Redmi Note 8T. All have 4G network. However the 5 Plus has a very strong network compared to the 8T, where the 8T is showing 1Bar Signal Strength the 5 Plus has 3 bars and if the 5plus shows 1 or 2 bars the 8T will show No Network!!! angry Madam is using the 5 plus without any problems. Gorilla Glass Screen, Infrared, etc..

This same problem with you boss.

Software won't correct it. I have tried that method it didn't work. It's RS232 VGA to computer that can solve it. I'm currently looking for that cable.
In case you solve yours kindly let me know

Thank you for the response. The decoder has been working well until the dish collapsed due to heavy storm. After i reinstalled it, the message displayed on screen says it should be activated.

Good evening bro.

I visited a family friend today using C-SAT pro decoder, and I was surprised at the channels he was recieving. Channels wey Startimes & GoTv dey use bill me monthly na him person dey use for free. I asked him over 5 times, if he ain't paying for it, he said na free to air

I know nothing about FTA channels. But I was watching Al Jazeera, Animal planet/channel, Crime, TVC and some other cool channels.

Can you list beside the C-SAT decoder, other stuffs I go buy to dey catch those channels?

I have suffered enuff

Is not because he's using CSAT only that's why he got those channels. He's decoder could have a Forever account or he positioned his dish to that satellite position offering that for free " Temporary "

If you're not an installer; free to air will frustrate you because those stations might be blocked today and you start calling installer to position it to another satellite direction.

Your best bet is to get any decoder that has IPTV, FOREVER, and CHMAX functions and get a good installer to track. You can enjoy unlimited channels via internet connections even ddds....tv stations

I would rather you get Tiger T50 or T60 or Aster S150 decoder.

My favorite amongst them is T60.

I hate it when people keep advertising IPTV.
Such services no longer makes it free to air due to subscription and data services.
Please gurus in the house need to emphasize on the quality channels gotten on big size dishes cause I know they don't have to keep repositioning the satellite every time.

Go for forever enabled decoder like mediastar, tiger, starsat, asteriod. This decoder has the software with the aid of hotspot via internet from your phone can help in unlocking some channels

Likewise we have sunplus decoder with nashare account that is also good for many big dishes eg televes, csat, and so on. Consult me or any other installer to explain better if necessary

Seriously it's very annoying hearing about forever this and that, this is a Free To Air thread meaning it should be free, besides one can always watch most foreign channels on their android phone, the extra steps of subscription and data to view certain channels doesn't make sense.

Why would you be looking for free things 100%?
For your information nothing is free on earth. Those free to air stations are heavily paid for in dollars to their hosts.
The least amount to set up a free to air system could range from 20k to 300k depending on decoder and dish size, is that also free?

And where did I advertise IPTV.
I feel you lack comprehensive abilities.

Please keep your hate to yourself and let those who can afford it be.

Mr know it all well done, nothing is free yet aljazeera, bbc, sky news, mbc channels, etc is free, it's just unfortunate the true users of FTA are currently not online, you talk about paying for service yet you are doing bypass with hacked decoders? Why not just use DStv since you can afford your forever crack?
