How much? Though it looks like original, know it's not as rugged, so treat it like uncooked egg.
85k.

The LCD they put before. As software message was showing that some functions can’t work with that LCD. Especially display settings. I just tell them to remove it and put the original.

It looks nice and feel like the original.

Just fix the whole screen. All those "na only the touch na em damage," so you want to go fix only touch-screen is just a temporary solution, it will further damage later. Just fix the whole screen, and pray that the person you giving it to is a good and sincere one.

The last time i heard, na 17-15k for fixing.
How you sure? For amuled screen?

It's not the touch. But the screen n. It still touch fine. And can be manage. I am typing this with it.

Just that it hurt the eyes.
PhonesMy Redmi Phone Fell And The Screen Is Damaged by fineboynl(op): 11:53am On May 27
Last night my redmi phone fell.

The screen is not cracked but super internal damage with white flickering screen like Samsung.

I really tried to avoid Samsung phones because of this. Alter several research back and forth I settled for redmi. And yet that shit still happens.

Unplanned expense just sets in.

Guys please how much to fix this phone noted 12 pro +?

I really don't like fixing phone screen because the glue doesn't always firm like it came out from. The box.
PhonesIs My Airtel Areal Plan A Scam Or What? by fineboynl(op): 10:11pm On May 25
MTN is acting up lately. And it's getting worst each passing day.

I'm beginning to think that's it's intensional to get people into their cyber x.

I'm on MTN yearly plan. Since last year I haven't been using it.

So I only use Airtel my area plan as a backup.

Airtel will disappear your data. If they had the power they will disappear your phone too.

The money I keep wasting on Airtel my area plan daily. Airtel will zap it all within few seconds and you will be asking yourself what you did with gigs of data every day.
Car TalkHow To Customise Japanese Sedans Soft Suspension To Stronger One by fineboynl(op): 11:43am On May 24
To customize a Japanese sedan for a stronger, stiffer suspension, you need to replace factory "soft" components with performance parts.

To make standard Japanese sedans (like the Accord, Camry, or Altima) handle rough terrain, potholes, uneven and unpaved roads. You must swap factory components for heavy-duty and lifted parts. Replace factory struts with heavy-duty twin-tube shocks, install polyurethane bushings, add lift springs to increase ground clearance, and upsize to taller, thicker-walled tires.

If you are dealing with severely damaged roads, ruts, and potholes, follow these actionable steps to build a more robust suspension:

1. Upgrade to Heavy-Duty Struts and Shocks
Factory shocks are tuned for smooth city driving. When they are pushed over rough terrain, they quickly blow out or overheat.

Twin-Tube Dampers:
Opt for heavy-duty gas-charged twin-tube shocks (from brands like KYB, Bilstein, or Koni). They can handle aggressive impacts and dissipate heat much better than factory ones.

2. Install Lift Springs (Increase Ground Clearance)
Lowering your vehicle is terrible for bad roads. To clear rocks and avoid bottoming out, you need extra height.

Raised/Heavy-Duty Springs:
Brands like Dobinsons or King Springs manufacture "raised" or heavy-duty coil springs for vehicles like the Camry and Accord. These will lift the car by 1 to 2 inches while offering a stiffer rate that supports heavy loads.

3. Switch to Polyurethane Bushings
Rubber suspension bushings tear easily when constantly twisted and pounded by uneven roads, which leads to metal-on-metal knocking.

Polyurethane:
Upgrade to aftermarket polyurethane bushings. They are significantly more durable, resist rot from dirt, and keep your suspension geometry tightly aligned, although they will transfer slightly more vibration into the cabin.

4. Optimize Your Wheel and Tire Setup
Your tires are the first layer of defense for your suspension. Large, low-profile alloy wheels will quickly bend or crack on potholes. Smaller Wheels,

Thicker Sidewalls:
Drop down a wheel size (e.g., from 18-inch rims to 16-inch rims) and pair them with taller tires. This increases the amount of rubber between the road and your metal rims, acting as a natural cushion that spares your shocks from brutal impacts.

Front/Rear Strut Bars
Bolting a strut tower brace across your engine bay stiffens the chassis, ensuring that all road impacts are absorbed by the upgraded suspension rather than the car body itself.

Car TalkYesterday I Was Going Somewhere When A Yellow Light Appeared On My Dash by fineboynl(op):
Yesterday I was going somewhere when a yellow light appeared on my dash. It didn't let me to go back or let me go forward, as I just left the house promptly for that journey.

I had been getting calls since morning from the person I wanted to go see.

So I branched to a filling station and did a 4k top-up. I was really ashamed despite waiting for about 5 cars before my turn. When it got to my town, I checked the meter after buying the fuel; it was 2.8 L, of which I know the meter is not accurately complete.

When I left the filling station, the yellow light was still showing. I don’t need anybody to tell me to turn back home. I made a U-turn straight home to go park to the car. Calling the person to shift the program till next week.

Car TalkWhy Japanese Cars Have Fragile Suspensions by fineboynl(op): 5:33am On May 21
Japanese cars are generally famous for their exceptional reliability, but their suspension systems are often perceived as fragile due to their comfort-first design, lighter weight, and sensitivity to rough, unpaved local roads.The perception that they break easily stems from several key factors:

1. Comfort Over Toughness Japanese automakers (like Toyota, Honda, and Nissan) traditionally design their suspension setups for maximum comfort in urban driving environments. This means using softer bushings and lighter, more compliant shock absorbers that deliver a smooth ride on smooth roads but wear out much faster when regularly subjected to deep potholes and rough terrain.

2. Lighter Materials To improve fuel efficiency and lower production costs: Japanese cars use lighter materials in their suspension and chassis. While this improves overall handling and reduces fuel consumption, these lighter components (such as aluminum control arms or thinner sway bars) do not have the same heavy-duty impact resistance as the heavier, more robust parts typically found in European or American cars.

3. "Exported" Road Conditions Vehicles built for the Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) or exported to regions with pristine roads are tuned for those specific conditions. When these same suspension components are driven on severely unpaved, uneven, or corrugated roads (common in places like Enugu and across Nigeria), they are pushed far beyond their intended engineering tolerances.

4. Simplicity vs. Complexity: Japanese suspensions prioritize simple, lightweight designs (like basic MacPherson struts or torsion beams). While this makes them incredibly affordable and easy to maintain under normal conditions, they lack the advanced multi-link complexity that European cars (like BMW or Mercedes) use to keep the wheels perfectly aligned and stress-distributed over highly uneven terrain.

5. Standard Wear and Tear: People frequently confuse suspension wear with fragility. Items like ball joints, tie rod ends, and rubber bushings are wear-and-tear parts meant to be periodically replaced. Because Japanese cars easily rack up high mileages without needing engine repairs, owners often overlook replacing these rubber and metal joints until they fail or make clunking noises.

Have tired opening it and changing the rings and other bad inner parts?
I have one since 2015, I hsve just changed the rings and a fried valve this February. The car runs fine now with only one issue: it smokes when starting and warming up in the morning (for about 3- 7 min). Aside that it runs well without smoking, and the oil level stays fine, so far.
I am on the 2nd oil change, and that has Last 850 miles now.
the valve seal is causing the morning smoke. Thsts a simple fix.

PoliticsPeople Are Now Rejecting N5, N10 & N20. Which Way Nigeria? by fineboynl(op):
I have a lot of N5, N10, N20, and N50 inside my car.

Most times I forget them because I don’t use them. Each time I have these changes, but I dump them there. The reason I don’t use them is that they can't buy anything. I still have a lot of them at home.

The ones in my car, I mostly remember using them for sachets of water. It's the N50 that I mostly use.

I decided to start using the lower denomination to phase them out since the N50 is widely accepted. Surprisingly, they rejected the N5, N10, and N20.

I was like, "Which way, Nigeria?"

there should be a name tag and a code number imprint in metal. Signifying original.

All those careless way we do things in this country is not done else were. If police is going for a special operation it's understandable.

But not mounting road blocked without a code number and name.
