Lol if you no go, you nor know... Just try and keep the RN 5 pro and infinix Note 5 side by side u go get the gist.

The gcam greatly enhances photos beyond stock camera limits, that been said, if u you are tech savvy u want to flash everything even what you barely need.

The Note 6 pro camera is amazing, i don't see any need for gcam, but if you can install it, it always produces better images.

Xiaomi is a great device coming from samsung i have no regrets. I can't use a tecno or infinix.. The poor display is the first turn off.

I took pictures with my RN5 rear camera (first time I did that after 1 month of getting the phone) and I was totally thrilled. The rear camera is great, the portrait mode is just wonderful. I took the same pictures with my friend's infinix note 5 and the infinix looked like crap. My friend has literally dumped her 2 weeks old infinix and turned my RN5 to her 'default' camera phone. Lol

Change your region to India, then open the Theme App.
You'll see the font menu, click it, download and install any fonts of your choice.
After that revert back to Nigeria as your region.

Goodluck!
Mrcalxy

Thank you. It worked.

Thank. Very helpful, though I haven't tried it yet. Apparently, this issue is widespread amongst Xiaomi users.

Please guys how can I see my files when I connect to my laptop? I have tried severally, it only shows me options to share pictures and charge. I can't access other files when I connect to the laptop. Is it the laptop issue, phone issue or is there something I'm not doing right? Please assist.

There's this generic earpiece which I give as Freebies on phones bought from me. I have never really given it a huge thought cos I am not a good reviewer of earpiece.

Yesterday one user here bought it and after using it for like 2 minutes his response was like ' bro how could you sell this earpiece at this price you are selling it to me? The quality of this earpiece is far more than the price you are selling it'

Another buyer from Kaduna who was skeptical before I shipped it to him just sent me a message expressing his surprise at the quality of the earpiece and how satisfied he was with it.

Now I'm considering buying the earpiece in large stock.

One thing I can say is that the material looks high grade, it has volume slider control and a button for picking calls which also serves as track changing button when playing music. It has a mic and the earpiece itself is dual coil.

In terms of bass, I will appreciate if those who recently bought phones from me could give their review on the bass production of the earpiece.

Truly the earpiece is dope. The sound production is top notch. Completely thrilling. I'm enjoying it bro, I can't thank you enough. I could have spent a couple of bucks to purchase something similar in the open market, but I got it FOC from you.

Review: I noticed the sound production isn't as great in my older device as it is in my RN5. Which means the phone type and model could be a major determinant on the quality of sound.
I also noticed, from the look and feel, that the cable material looks sturdy and durable.

I noticed my phone's camera flash now blinks whenever my phone is ringing. This started yesterday, I don't know how I activated it and now I don't know how to deactivate it. Please help. I use RN5

Phones › Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by bendovex: 9:07pm On Oct 28, 2018

So I decided to test the battery of my RN5 after I updated to MIUI10 yesterday. Charged fully in the morning. I played music for almost 3 hours before Bae used my phone to stream a movie (mamma Mia 2) online, Which lasted for over 2 hours. I started streaming the Arsenal game after which I also streamed the Barca game. While watching football, Bae was connected Via hotspot. I was able to squeeze over 14 hours from the battery and still have about 34% battery life left. Guys please, how would you rate the battery performance?

Please guys, I just bought my RN5 but I've received an update for MIUI10. Is it safe to update? Do have to do anything first before updating? Please help because I'm still a novice in this Xiaomi and update thing.

The phone has been wonderful.. Sha.. But unless I get testimonies from here... But I realized on this group new converts mostly after they post ive gotten my device thanks to @....... Or @........... U won't see dem again.. So to get info about anything go just hard die.. Dont want to be caught in any shipping wahala. I watched movies about black Friday... D whites dont play with that shit.

I know it's still too early to give testimonies cos I took delivery of the device yesterday. So far, honestly, this device is great. UI is very fluid, display is sharp and crisp, user experience is great, zero lags, amazing battery life. Camera is awesome too.
It's like a whole new level of smartphone experience. Xiaomi did a great job on this device.

Like some has said start from 90 bacause the way you typed it, it now sees as +234+234902. Note they had already provided the international dailing code when you selected Nigeria

I tried it without adding the +234 yet it didn't work. I've sorted it out sha. Thanks.

sacramento1212:
Not really. There's a different section for country code which is the +234 already displayed there so what he needs to do is to proceed with his number by not adding the country code again. Because once he adds the remaining numbers, the system will rearrange it.

I tried that too. It didn't work. I think the problem was from the 090 number block. I tried my second line which is 070 and it was accepted.

macbeyland:
Makes sense. Was thinking the problem was from the 090. I remember a site once prevented me from registering with my 081 number until I supplied 080

you're actually correct. I tried my second line which is 070 and it was accepted. I've been able to set it up successfully.

The note 5 comes with better cameras.

Check the specs comparison with the link below

https://m.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=9120&idPhone2=9247

Seems a hard choice to make. Both devices look similar and amazing, save for the front camera and then the notch. Note 5 wins it for me. Thanks for the link.

Redmi Note 5, better processor was the decider for me, and I prefer miui to stock android.

Thank you so much. I understand they both have the same battery capacity, I'm not sure which is better in terms of camera and picture quality.

Redmi note 5 or redmi A2 lite which should I go for? I need an honest advice. Thanks.

Phone/Internet Market › Re: Xiaomi Phones Arena by bendovex: 11:08pm On Aug 14, 2018

macbeyland:
Thanks for the clarification. I think I understand now, so the presence of additional band (band 20) makes the price of global version a little higher.

Global version and global rom have one LTE band as difference between them.

.

Global version is made and sealed from factory. Global rom is Chinese version with the software for global version installed by the Chinese sellers before selling out.

Global version has band 20, global rom doesn't

That band 20 is not so significant because it's mtn that uses it but they also use another LTE band. So you can still get mtn LTE network on the global rom.

And some people say global rom has better screen quality than global version but I have personally not noticed it.

While your observation may be intelligent, i dont believe that's the case because i was told to move all my contacts as all datas were deleted.

The OP clearly doesn't know how sim swap works, I understand his fears. He's informing the public from a position of ignorance. That's my problem.
