Saw this.. Can I proceed?
Are you using Chinese ROM?

Better wait for OTA Update.

I think global version sold in stores like pointek, raya and the likes comes with the three pin.
Nigeria uses UK standard so it is makes sense.

2 pin is EU standard

DonJazzy sure knows how to promote his own.

I believe his best artistes went down with the MoHits crew. Then Tiwa tried under Marvin.

Reekado Banks did well before his exit.

After that, it became a label for kids.

Korede as rightly predicted, turned out to be a one-hit wonder. I wouldn't know if that is how God won...

Dija's career has always been on life support.

He has this Crayon dude too.

As for Rema, I don't get when people compare him to Wizkid. Same Wizkid that gave us Holla At Your Boy, Don't Dull, Tease Me, Pakurumo, Ojuelegba?

It might please you all to know that when Wizkid won Next Rated- Tiwa Savage, Ice Prince and Olamide were co-nominees. So, lets get our comparisons right.

Anyway, my fear now is that at this rate, the Marvin power will come into play and he would win Next Rated, when FireBoy is there.

If that happens, I expect Olamide to go on another rant. A well deserved rant, as against the one he did for LilKesh.
But you forgotJohnny Drille and Ladipoe, are they also kids?

Sir I am not opposing that out of a brand one or two of the devices may be faulty. I am talking about a general issue which has been asserted on this thread.
Okay please explain or contradict those monikers I quoted
Nothing like general issues. There is difference between isolated issues and general issues. On the Samsung thread someone complained of his unit of one the A series not charging, does that make it a general problem.

If 100, 000 persons out of over 20million conplains of an issue, does that make it a general issue? As someone who knows economics I hope you understand such statistics.

I am not really sure if I am the one who needs that advice ma'am. 2018 is not that long ago for Gods sake
The first post with over 10 likes




Las Las someone sometime in the past admitted that as at the same time Redmi 6 not even 5 was reigning. Flagship phones were still besting them in cameras etc. And someone was saying his camera on his redmi note 5 beats a flagship S8+ camera. Anyway.....



I said this times without number that you cant enjoy Gcam on a device without rooting @oga jboixxx. @jboixxx I draw my conclusions from what I read here. Finite...




I think that will be all.

Have a blessed day
Modified
I apologise to all those who I quoted.
Let me school you since you a novice to this thread and probably to the tech world.

Camera2api been enabled is a prerequisite for using Gcam on any device. On Samsung their high end it comes enabled on their mid-range only few and thanks to Exynos you can't enable it even if you manage to root example A20, A30 and their likes exemption of A50 and above.

Now back to Xiaomi. Prior to Redmi Note 7, Xiaomi only enabled Camera2api out of the box(from factory) for only their flagship Mi and Mi Mix series.

So for older devices like RN6 pro, RN5, Redmi 5 plus, RN 4X etc you had to not necessarily root but unlock bootloader, install a custom recovery and enable camera2api all these takes seconds.

But now from Redmi 7 upwards no need for the shenanigans stated above, just get a compatible GCam with the right settings if needed and you are good to go.

Now on the posts you quoted from 2018.

The first 2 were banters and the last one was just directed those interested in GCam on their RN6 Pro the way to go. So you still have not said anything.

Thank you for the reading.

I can quote a whole conversation said by popular monikers here on this thread. Asserting the fact that GCAM 3rd party app crashes after 3 photos. And I wont call a 6gb ram phone a small ram . And the moniker made mention that he had to use the stock camera plus snapspeed

Btw I am not disputing the fact that Sseries users may request for Gcam. But they don't do it because the need it they do it because they want it. The economist will understand.
You will start something you can't finish and start shifting goal posts. Kwatinue.

Please post the several posts. If the monikers are not up to 50 keep your opinion for your wallet.

S10+ is arguably the best camera in the world . And this is contested by Huawei p30pro , iPhone Xsmax, iPhone 11 pro max and Samsung Note10.
An S10 will take better pictures with its stock camera than a mi9( not mi9t) with Gcam.
You should try GSM arena side by side comparison
Wrong Note 10+ used to be the best but it have been outclassed by the mate 30 pro

Samsung and most brands don't have to install gcam to make their stock camera better . If a Samsung S or N series user installs GCam, it will not be out of a necessity , it will be out of just wanting to get more quality out of their pictures.
And I have never seen any Samsung S series user that requested for a GCam install. I am saying this because my friend @Grandmufti specifically said Samsung. I am not in anyway comparing Xiaomi and Samsung
Samsung users ask me for link to GCam everyday and am talking S8, S9 users

KngGezy:
You guys know the truth
Xiaomi may be good
But it is yet to perfect its software. And the deeply flawed software is negating how good the processor is. And that is why because the camera system software is bad. You need a better camera software Gcam to improve the picture quality. The camera hardware is good but the software is not utilizing its full potential

Same with the whole OTA Upgrade that requires complex processes and varies from region to region.

And if you will accept the truth the whole GCAM install is not really useful. Because I have read here that after taking 3 pictures at a time the Google camera crashes. The pictures taken after that are lost. So Xiaomi may be the best for those who love rooting their phones. But in actuality they have a long way to go

Please I am not trying to discredit Xiaomi. Please read without prejudice to my former comments.
At Bolded.

Go to XDA, Samsung users are begging for GCam ports, sadly only few exynos chipsets supports it. And it is a lie that GCam crashes after three photos, it is only slow in processing in some devices with small RAM sizes.

Photos taking are not lost.

Also I can boldly tell you that 95% of people here using Xiaomi have not rooted their phones and are enjoying it.

Please before you make bold statements I will advice you get yourself a xiaomi device that supports all aspects that you have doubts and use it yourself before you make further comments.

Peace.

You are using Global ROM not Chinese ROM. MIUI 11 stable is only currently available for few devices on Chinese ROM. Be patient.

Also OTA simply means Over The Air

I did not use my Okada book app username. I just downloaded the app now and did a quick transfer with narration as " payment for Tolerated"

Please help me. I have been trying to reach the phone number I saw there but no one is picking up.
That is not how it works. You download Okadabooks create an account, after setting up your account click on refill choose option (card payment preferably) refill then purchase the book

see for yourself
I use a Redmi Note 5 and I now have 4G since I entered Lagos yesterday but not in my formal location except I put my SIM in my sister's Nokia 2. Did I upgrade my phone? No. But why am in a place where Glo has rolled out LTE Band 3. If you go to places with only band 28 your 4G will disappear.

Install LTE Discovery or Signal Spy to confirm and stop arguing, it have been proven on this thread.

But let's be real in quality xiaomi will never reach Samsung.
None of their phones have water resistance even the 2800$ concept mi mix alpha, but the s11 is coming with a spectrometer, a 5* optical zoom better than any you've seen so far because it might use variable or liquid lens, it's exynos is gonna match snapdragon 865 because of new architecture.
It's gonna be the best all-rounder next year.
I laugh, the teardown of the Redmi K20 Pro by Jerryrigeverything showed waterproofing on the phone even if it wasn't stated. They don't pay for certification for IP rating doesn't mean it is not present.

Exynos can't meet up with Snapdragon thanks to the way they arrange their cores and even Samsung confirmed it. If the Huawei Kirin 990 couldn't beat the SD 855+, the next exynos we struggle to meet or pass the 855+ self.

Lol it's just because it has cheaper mid-range in Nigeria.
In india the m30s is a killer with it's processor beating every snapdragon 600 series not the 700 sha, it's 48mp is better than redmi's.its cheaper than the note 8 pro.
It's the most reigning phone in mid-range India but will not come to Nigeria 6000mah we will miss.
Anyway more people buy rn7 to rn4 before Samsung brought real good mid-range here which are still more expensive.
The a50 has exynos 9610 better than all the sd600 series in redmi (without 8 pro) but it's 90k which is too expensive
I beg to differ on some of your point

The base price of the M30s and RN8 Pro is basically the same at least until it is launched in India then we can compare price. NB The M series are meant for the Indian market...

Samsung A series came to Nigeria before Xiaomi officially entered into the Nigerian market.

Samsung made the sensors for RN7, RN8 and RN8 PRO only the RN7 Pro makes use of the current best 48Mp sensor Sony IMX 586.

The RN7 PRO camera beats the M30s camera.
