Please I have noticed that my battery has been going down a bit faster than before these couple of days. Do you see any possible reason in the stats?

And how do I change my font in rn7 pro where I haven't been able to find the "region" setting.

Thanks.

What app did you install that is keeping your phone awake always?

Region is always at additional settings

AshipaEk0:
It really looks like Redmi Note 8 is the abandoned bastard of the MIUI family

To think that one bought that instead of the mediatek pro version thinking that being s snapdragon device it would be better treated.

smh

Lesson learnt.

It is not abandoned, both RN8 and RN8 Pro will get the same Android Version which is 10, but RN8 will come with MIUI 12 instead of MIUI 11

How does one identify original as I heard there are plenty fakes on the market

Buy from a good source

Same content, different heading. Besides they have updated their browser with a fix. If you don't use the browser why worry. You either give your data to the US or the Chinese they are both guilty of it. Google that tracks your movement even with your data turned off.

BenDanor:
so beautiful

Thank you

Betnomore:
Bro is it worth buying redmi airdot? And how does one identify original. If there are also better substitutes at 8k price region please do let me know

Why won't it be, worth it. If it isn't good, it wouldn't have sold as much as it have. Alternatives are QCY T5, Haylou GT Pro(all are still companies backed by Xiaomi)

RN5

Stock Cam, No Edit.

No third part font, downloaded from the theme phone app

That is rare and you aren't using a custom theme as well

rust6:
Please what does this mean

Still on the way

ladykilllar:
Something similar happens to me on RN8 Pro

If I use a picture from my gallery as wallpaper and lock screen it changes back

And yes i am using a font from the theme app

Did you apply the picture through your theme app?

Viktordayo:
Yes, I used Google dialer but not MI dialer

Go to about phone, click on all specs and tap your storage as much as 8 times.

amosblisz:
I noticed my default theme on my new RN8 always bounce back whenever I install a new theme from the phone’s app (not 3rd party app) when I dnt use d phone for some hours. It’s darn annoying got the phone yesterday. Pls how do I make d downloaded theme stay put and not reset back to default

Are you using a third party font. If yes that is the root of your problem. Get a font from the theme app by changing region to India, select and apply and return back to your country of origin.

Check out Xiaomi MI Mix series, Umidigi, Essential ph 1

Every Global Version released by Xiaomi since they add Nigeria as market does with an exception of RN7, R7, R7a, R8a, R8 and RN8.

Then before we had the Mi 9. And it is not all mix series

Alfred234:
How come you are still on MiUI 10. I thought Redmi Note 8 already has MiUI 11

There are people who are scared of updates na....

surely22:
mind giving us a list of such devices?? thanks!

There are plenty out there, I can't start listing devices that fits this description. Which OEM will I start from. Get a list of all 4G bands used by all network service provider then use their bands to check on the specifications on any global Version phone you are buying.

busuyi44:
Confirmed !!! No more MTN 4G is not compatible with Global or Chinese ROM as long as you v MTN band 3 LTE in ur location.
Genius43

How many locations have it currently? Glo that started in 2018, is still limited. Only 5G approval will push them to move bands faster to enable them to use band 20 on sub-6Ghz bandwidth range, other than that they won't be a hurry. There are still lots of locations with only band 20 and no band 7 as well as places without 4G network for MTN.

My Verdict is buy a phone that covers all bands available in your country so you won't lack, no matter your location.

MediaTek appears to have very good resource management. The hyper engine doesn't appear to be a gimmick. However, what concerns me right now is how the RN9 Pro delivered 59.3 fps on average whilst running on a, what is supposed to be a hotter, 12nm SoC.

I guess MediaTek has stepped up their resource management and thermals or MiUI is just way better optimised to utilise the G90T. I guess we can give the G85 a shot since the G90T can deliver consistent frames with very little jitters and no throttling.

Time will tell.

Don't forget that Xiaomi added a cooling unit to dissipate heat

Abeg genius43 help me help yourself give her your digits so that my prophecy go come true. Help my ministry to blow abeg at least una testimony go help kick start my prophecy business!

O yea prophets...

I don't think it's the Network (Airtel) though. I always clear tabs and put off my data at night.

Like I said green bars don't always tell the story. Based on personal experience. If you can put it in airplane mode through the night and see if you experience such drain

Ovems:
Good morning experience experts in the house. Please I need help. My battery was 66% last night before I went to bed. Woke up this morning and it was 56%. Lost 10% without touching the phone. And I cleared all tabs before I went to be. Please what could be the issue?

Forgot to mention that the phone is a Redmi Note 7

Network fluctuation is the usual culprit. If you are a Glo user, worse.

Sometimes, the green bar don't tell the full story, from personal experience

PrettyBunny:
Where is Genius43?

I have missed him

Awwwn!!! I have been busy with work since resumption yesterday. Accelerated deadlines to meet up with.

Promzwealth:
Pls does Gionee m7 support gcam?

Not m7 power oooo but m7 the 6gbram

Nope

busuyi44:
So MTN has added band 3 LTE frequency secretly to their previous bands 7 & 20. If it's true/accurate dt is a good news for Global/Chinese ROM Xiaomi phones

Because they are likely going to use band 20 for 5G deployment

busuyi44:
Which network provider is this(stay safe)?
Genius44

MTN

Kingpeter404:
Android 10 update finally available for MI A3

victorVIC1:
