Please house, I suddenly noticed that the SIM 1 slot of my Note 9 pro isn't detecting SIM no more. I've changed and insert more than 5 Sims but none was detected. I re-installed new ROM may be it's software error but no way.

Kindly help me with a solution(s).

Thanks all
The sim slot maybe faulty

I'm currently doing the back up now and I'll restore to factory settings.
Force restart is not factory restore mind you

Please how will I rectify this?
It is very tricky because this is a Mediatek device. Any wrong thing and that phone is gone.

You will need to flash back the Chinese ROM after unlocking the bootloader then try flashing a real Global ROM.

But like I said it is very tricky because Mediatek chipsets are not Mod friendly.

Next time ask questions to avoid this or buy locally.

There is nothing to actually clear because it is not opening at all. So I have uninstalled and installed it so no data, and the force stop is not active to use. This is what it normally pop up everytime I reinstalled and tried to open it.
Have you done the force restart.

Secondly when I said do a cleanup I meant for your entire device not Facebook

Your battery is most likely the culprit.

It is not network. It is the app. The app kept crashing since 2 days now. Report will just pop up. I've sent several report and installed and uninstalled several times.

I am using mtn anyway 😂
Do a force restart and clear cache and residual files

I got it from AliExpress.

This is the model number from the device: 22101316G but I just checked the carton and also the IMEI number online and saw 22101316C
Certainly a Chinese Version with a shop ROM.

Make enquiries properly and always buy Global Versions.

Specify your kind of redmi note 12 pro 5g

Does it have Chinese writing on the box?

Maybe you got the Chinese version and they installed global rom for you is why you have not gotten it
I am still surprised people are still buying shop ROM in 2023.

If they followed this thread long enough they would have known the dos and don'ts of buying Xiaomi phones from AliExpress

My redmi note 12 pro 5G is yet to receive android 13 update. Is something wrong somewhere?

I have been having this temptation to download from XDA and update it manually.
Are you sure this is not a shop ROM?

Where did you buy this from?

Because this is obviously not a global version.

And you have to be careful because your device is MTK and not Snapdragon.

This why we tell people to be careful when buy supposed Global ROM(Chinese Version with a ROM flashed by he store) from AliExpress.

Stick to Global Versions especially with Mediatek powered devices.

my last security update has been 2022 I'm wondering if there are new updates since then or they have stopped sending updates to the particular phone
For which device?

From your questions, I will say it is best you stick to updating via OTA.

is OTA same as security update? last one I have is 2022 I'm wondering if there's been other updates since then, I haven't got any new updates there
Security updates for Xiaomi comes with their firmware updates which you receive via OTA. You can download same manually.

please genius43,what other things do those phone engineers at CV do to a new phone apart from configuring Ur Gmail. I bought a new redmi 12 device and was asked to do configuration for a fee of 1500
Why do you need someone to configure your device in the first place?

Xiaomi/Redmi/Poco are not alien technology. Android is Android regardless and if you play around them you figure out things yourself.

Hi everyone.

I don't know if it was on this thread or the other one someone posted how to repair a redmi note 9s deadboot issue. I am currently having issue with my redmi note 9s.

The phone can go off at any time. And then later comes up at some point but you never can tell when that would be. When it is powered it comes up briefly showing redmi icon and immediately goes off. please if anyone has any idea how to permanently solve this I would appreciate.

Note: I have changed both the battery and screen. Started experiencing this issue after then
If you are in Lagos engage Igemburg if he can help out

I've been trying to safe power by restricting some apps background activities. Another issue is about fast charging, it only works if I switched off the phone..
Nope. Fast Charging works with temperature. If your phone is too hot it won't charge fast. This should be general knowledge by now

Hi mi fam
Please I recently started having network issues on my RN9
It seems its selects locations to display network or connect to internet. For about 3 days I no longer have network or internet connectivity at home. Every signal just disappears. Can't call can't browse. This is new cuz i used to have signals at home. If i step out or change location I'll start receiving signals in some places, others no signal. At home i swapped my SIM into my Friend's phone to see if it's SIM problem...nd the sim card is perfectly okay
When i put my friend's sim into my phone, there'll be no signal

Please how do I fix this..is it software or hardware ish..
Your network IC is most likely the culprit or your antennas

Please, has anyone cancelled an order just hours after placing the order on AliExpress? How long did it take before you were refunded?

I'm asking because I placed an order for a product but mistakenly used the wrong address. I cancelled the order immediately I noticed. But I want to know if the refund process will be as smooth as the cancellation process.
Instead of cancellation you could have messaged the seller to change the address if it is yet to be shipped

I purchased Redmi Note 12 pro(8/128) on Tuesday, but I just finished moving necessary files from my old phone yesterday. I noticed the battery drain faster than my 2 years+ old Redmi 9. Is there any solution to this? Do I need update the MIUI?

Comparing a lesser powered processor to higher one will give you headache.

hello everyone.

How can a 15secs videos be using 53MB on my redmi note 9s. Please what settings should i adjust.
This is quite ridiculous
Check the resolution quality you are recording at. The larger the resolution. The larger the size.

If you are bold to record at 4K don't complain about size because that is how it is.

@genius and others,
Am having issues with Truecaller.
I have been using the app for a long time now but recently when I receive a call, the phone will be ringing but it won't display the caller on my phone (RN10s).
My phone is up to date.
The Truecaller is also up to date.
Please what is the possible cause and solution.
Thanks for your reply
I don't use truecaller

Hello genius43

Please I know you have been asked such questions over and over again but please answer me.

Which Xiaomi or Redmi phone with curved screen is the cheapest out there?
No Redmi with curved screen.

And currently curved screens are found on the flagships.

So this year Xiaomi 13 Pro and 13 Ultra.

Last year Xiaomi 12x, 12 Pro and 12 have curved screens. And they are not cheap.

And it also depends on your definition of cheap
