This is the link to download the update manually for Redmi Note 8 https://bigota.d.miui.com/V12.0.2.0.QCOMIXM/miui_GINKGOGlobal_V12.0.2.0.QCOMIXM_b58f9663d7_10.0.zip

At least all those who were saying it wasn't a bug on 11.0.11.0 that didn't make Redmi Note 8 update to MIUI 12, can see that a 12.0.2.0 was released so that those on 11.0.11.0 can update to MIUI 12. It has been proven that it wasn't server issues or any of those fancy words.

Emmyreal4:
bro did you update manually or via OTA

synticate:
Note 7 running on A10 miui 12 while the note 8 on A9 miui 11

gogeekish:

You must factory reset. Those set of phones have this issue. Xiaomi acknowledge it. First factory reset, it will not happen again.

nongo123:


I have made peace with it. In fact at this moment I'm just enjoying my device, MIUI 12 or no MIUI 12, RN8 is a very good phone.

Dottune:
Everything you're saying seems nice, just point me to someone on the MIUI 11.0.11.0 who has received the Stable update. So how would you explain people on 11.0.10.0 receiving the MIUI 12 before the former? I am sure most of the RN8 users here are on 11.0.11.0, if this wasn't the case, there should be a sizeable number of RN8 users who would have said they got the Stable update, just like most of us did when the Beta Stable was released.

it's like poco users no dey get complains compare to redmi users

Hi Xiaomi fans....I have redmi note 9 pro which picture is very good....Can I install camera that has amoled display even if it involves charges?

abdsamad:


I don't use floating windows, so...

I dunno!

Emui has an excellent sidebar/floating windows which I now miss. Maybe I'll do some research to see what approximation of it I can find

festwiz:


If any feature is not present it will be due to performance issues. That's why the MiUI 12 and A10 for device has been in testing since June. If they couldn't get as feature to work as intended it's best they get rid of it than it having a negative performance impact.

For instance only certain models with AMOLED displays got Super Wallpapers. There's a reason for everything. At least they rolled out A10 for the RN8 as well.

If there's any way to get the features working right, it'll be present in subsequent update.

abdsamad:

Download "navigation gestures (by xda)" on playstore

sheylarhh:
They are treating RN8 users unfairly

Folahanmi19:



Oga face front, you said 9s, the miui 12 on rn8 doesn't have some features yours have

Keiyadosh:
Guyy rest....I have been seeing all ur posts...All u do is condemn people that have issues with their devices...Is there anything wrong with lodging complaints??why are u always attacking people??It is really not nice .. People wanted the updates because of these features,, now the features are gone,,he suddenly has lost d right to complain??what has he said that is wrong??

Jemerson:


After lamenting about lack of updates, you have now shifted to removed features? Na wa o

genius43:


Pill is not part of the MIUI operation. Hold any Xiaomi phone that came with Android 10. Not every stock android feature you expect to find on MIUI. That is why it is a custom Skin.

As for floating window it is their decision to make and a lot of thoughts might have gone into it.

There is no point packing in features that will drop a phones performance.

queenfav:
i think i will do a 256gb device after this.

jboixxx:
All ye MIUI 12 searchers, it's coming your way soon. China stable is live now.

macanthony25:
Fact is that i took my RN8 to Raya service centre and was told to pay 62k that the screen and panel are bad,the que now is ,is it advisable to pay that amount or just add it 13k and buy a new one for 75k or look for a good phone engineer in abuja that can fix the phone's screen and panel for less than that 62k?

olanreyman:
Another useless update for redmi note 8

Zeroenochone:



Lol sorry to hurt your feelings but it's not android 10
I also got the update yesterday
If you check your phone's about section you'll find that it's android 9 (pie)
More so the name or whatever of a Xiaomi android 10 update would start with 'q'(Miui 11.0.1.0.QCNMIXM) It'll look something like this

Moreso android 10 update is around 700 to 800 mb

It's just a system stability update and if they released an miui 11 update it really made me doubt if we're getting MIUI 12 because why improve on the old one when we're expecting a newer version?..

Meister:


The Samsung is an Android one device so it's actually supposed to get the update before the note 8

Mrcalxy:


Check the wait time and get back to me. I'm referring to fast updates.

Mrcalxy:


For Samsungs, get their flagship devices if not you'll still feel neglected. Xiaomi does well in the budget segment in terms of updates than Samsung.

NeoWanZaeed:



I think they are sure if they keep giving Redmi 8 series updates.. people won't by 9 series..

is 8 series better? that's the only logical reason for its abandonment

genius43:


Mi CC9E nko? That device is 3 months older than RN8.

genius43:


It is not abandoned. Like I have said before they seem to be have troubles with phones transiting to Android 10 with that Chipset (SD 665), they had with Mi A3 which ran on Android one, now all phones running MIUI using that Chipset haven't gotten android 10, Mi CC9e(China exclusive), RN8 and RN8T
