so it won't happen again right? or should i disable it?

Unless you change your SIM card. It tries to activate any new SIM inserted to the phone.

I'm yet to create the account. Changed the region and font first, then was about to create the account when I read a message on the page that said I won't be able to change my region once the account has been created, I kuku cancelled the account creation abeg to seek better counsel first before I go go lock myself. And I also observed that when I changed my region back to Nigeria, the font option vanished from to the themes app. What do you think please?

Create your mi account, whenever you want to change fonts switch region to India and come back. That is what we do

Edimalo01:
Hi guys...I made some orders some days ago. the seller messaged me and told me he that I should cancel the order he can't ship to Nigeria. i did cancel the order but I dont know how I'll be refunded.

You will be refunded through the path you paid i.e to your bank account.

Okay, I got my RN 9 pro today and there's no system update available and it's on miui 11.0.1 should I be worried?

There is a new update still in public stable testing, you will get it soon. Except if you are impatient to wait for an OTA. Then download full Recovery ROM and install manually.

Prymestrr:
But will there be any implications now that I already changed the region and font before creating the mi account?

Not sure. You should have waited for a response before creating the account.

Am about acquiring redmi note 9 pro 6/128gb global version; will unlocking bootloader and rooting with magisk cause problems if I do OTA update?
Am asking because in the past, I witnessed people bricking their xiaomi phones after rooting the device and doing OTA update, is the problem still there?

Everything has rules. And you should know the rules of what you go into.

The issue of bricking rooted phones during OTA didn't start with Xiaomi anyway.

Guys, I just got the redmi 8 and it's a pretty good phone. So this evening, i was charged #50 for something i don't know of by airtel. Has anyone experienced this before?

Find my device was activated

Joered63:
Please gurus in the house I need help o, my mi max 2 battery started draining rapidly few months ago, I changed the battery but it's still the same. Charge the phone to 100% even if I shut it down all through the night, in the morning it will display something like 30%.

The annoying part now, is sometimes the phone will be on about 95% battery then it will suddenly reboot and what I will see will be 50%. The worst is whenever the battery gets to about 40% the phone just shutdown.

I have done everything, changed battery, factory reset, flashed a new custom ROM, root the phone so I could install greenify, recalibrated the battery with the calibration app

I don't know what the problem could be, do I have to buy another battery again or could it be a hardware issue?

All this are a sign of a bad battery.

Prymestrr:
Just changed the font, was about to create the mi account then read where it says I won't be able to change my region again after creating the mi account. Does it mean I can change to alternative fonts whenever I want to?

Create your mi account while in Nigeria Region. After creating account you can.now change region to India to change fonts and back.

okikiosibodu:
I started experiencing this in my RN7 today o. Initially thought my sim extender was damaged until I restarted the phone and it was seeing sim 1
I don restart am like 5 times today alone

This problem wasn't on RN7 check your SIM extender.

Prymestrr:
Thanks chief...will work on this now. Also the default Google keyboard is sort of too small abeg, I've set it to the extra-tall option but no change. How can I make it bigger please? Or recommend a better keyboard to me please.

I am okay with GBoard and I use it on normal but you can try SwiftKey

Alfred234:
That's the Android 10 update.
You need to install that one first before this new one will pop up.

It might get updated to this current one straight up

Prymestrr:
Just got the phone today. Do you know how to change font on note 8 pro please? Been searching for how to do that all day.

For a phone that was released last year, do you know how many updates it has gotten? So it is only right you start by Downloading a full ROM as your first update.

For fonts. Change your region to India from additional settings. Go to theme app, check for fonts and download and apply your choice. Make sure your Mi account is created and signed in.

After applying your font you can change your region back to Nigeria.

Just got an update for my note 8s miui 11.0.9

Update your phone. It is Note 9S not 8S

enniewelt:
I was at ikeja today to see if the mi note 10 lite is available only for them to tell me that it can't work in Nigeria, went to another store same thing was said to me.....just want to confirm if this is true

That is a lie. It works fully in Nigeria but it hasn't been released for the Nigerian Market.

You have to source it from AE, a seller here would have some units soon you can keep an eye on that.

Before going to Ikeja you should have made enquiries here first. Not everyone that sells phones is well informed about phones.

Just received this on my redmi k20-pro.

Guess the beta testing is over

Chinese ROMs always get updated first.
