The test points he mentioned is used when you brick the phone and want to bring it back to life Nairaalander1: yes, it will support OTA updates if left with the Chinese rom it came with na.
The issue here is that redmi 6pro doesn't have global rom and you should be damn sure that any seller that promises such is looking at a shop rom for you. No one gives what is non-existent na. You could have gotten it with the Chinese rom with playstore installed, uninstall all the Chinese apps that may come with it, they're useless as you have their English equivalents on playstore, download SwiftKey keyboard and you're smooth. Next time, when you're not crystal sure of something, ask. Info is free here.
On moving out of the shop rom you have, I wouldn't know the test point method lavenderjade has been talking of because people have moved from shop rom to global rom in the past without test point. However, you have no option of global rom as redmi 6pro doesn't have official global rom, for now at least Official Chinese or custom roms are your options  |

Wao! Thanks for this. Good to know. Wonder why they would want to do this ....despite the global rom being available some might still indulge in this act  lavenderjade: When u switch on it after sometime u wl see a message at the top.of ur fone sayin its looks like ur rom is unofficial..
And also wen u go to about fone .the fake one will be shwing .TA in baseband version... Lemi send u pix
D second one is original..
The reason why dey put fake global rom is becos dere is no.global rom yet for the fone .. Its only chinese ..and for dem to sell quick dey hav to sey global so dat ppl wl rush and buy it.. It to sey u knw u fr say make e send d chinese version fr u.. Den u wl unlo k d bootloader n flash a good rom wen xiaomi releases it |

Valuable information. One must avoid unnecessary tinkering of the device then  Question now is how do we identify a fake rom in case the seller does not point that out lavenderjade: The seller has installed fake global rom for u... If the bootloader is not unlocked bfr it comes here ..my dear sorry is ur case... With dat rom if u update ur fone wl b bricked.. The only solution is for u to open d back of d phone and do testpoint to flash a good rom inside..i experienced dis january and learnt testpoint bfor d fone came to nigeria .. |

The same way Blackberry thought they had exclusivity on Blackberry Messenger as their cash cow and refused to let go until it was too late? Or like Nokia thinking they got the best OS back then in Symbian ....now they are jostling for android market share ....Innovate or die! ollah2: How can you dump something that's making you money. |

I see Apple falling in line with the likes of Samsung, Blackberry and Nokia that jettison their proprietary OS to adopt the use of Android OS to further push their hardware brands to many users. That way, they can reach out to many more potential users. |

Well file a complaint with the bank the rate at about N297.47 to the dollar you were refunded is way low I agree  Its lower than the CBN's official rates to the bank too. I hope you've not been deducted some hidden charges by them though. [quote author=yusuff4u2c post=70973409][/quote] |

Crazy banking system we got in Nigeria. What is happening is that when you're making a purchase on Aliexpress with your Naira card, the banks are selling you dollars for that transactions at a mark up rate. Now when you get a refund (as is the case here), the bank is seeing the refund as an inbound fund transfer to your account (like Western Union and MoneyGram etc does). Because CBN does not allow such inflow to get to the customer in forex, the banks now convert it for you using the prevailing rates for inbound forex instead of reversing back your naira on hold (no settlement will be made to Aliexpress until after 45 days. yusuff4u2c: Mine is 11k short... I have confirmed from Aliexpress that they made a complete refund. UBA is trying to scam me... Tomorrow is another day. |

Education › Re: Warri Boy Who Smashed Waec And Jamb Denied Admission by bigtt76(f): 8:09am On Sep 06, 2018 |
So heartbreaking ....someone should just grant this guy a scholarship and take him out of this f@cking country! Instead of them to hail him as an ambassador, they're busy rejecting him! In other countries this boy would be a hero. Anne-Marie Imafidon got scholarship to study at John Hopkins University at 13, admitted to University of Oxford at 15 etc read more here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne-Marie_ImafidonDockaysworld: Warri boy who smashed waec and jamb denied admission.
David okorogheye, the delta state boy who floored his jamb and waec with 336 and 9A1's respectively has been denied admission into the university of lagos to study medicine, on the ground of his young age. . The 15-year-old who stunned the general public by his outstanding performance, was not allowed to take part in the post UTME exams, he has been asked to try again next year when he comes of age. .
Efforts to contact relevant authorities as to whether he could be considered for special admission has proved abortive as authorities say the law must be followed.
The lad however has come to terms with the surrounding suituations and says he will wait for the next year's admission.
According to sun news, David who hopes to become a neurosurgeon, had his passion activiated when he watched doctors battle to save the life of his late father when he was 8 years old, and since then vowed to study medicine so he can save lives. . With his father late, david is currently been sponsored by his mother and family members who are proud of him.
