Lucasinho:
Pls recommend a good Xiaomi for me...Budget...90-100k

Depends on what you call good, a phone of 100k today used to be valued around 40-45k by early 2020, so don't get your hope high. What are your top priorities in a phone?

Lucasinho:
But the Selfie camera is 5MP very poor

You don't know a poor camera by megapixels, there are so many factors involved, megapixels is almost the least to consider when getting a good camera.

Meister:
Why wait till next year ? Put it for sale at half its price so one unfortunate soul will buy it and suffer too

Wait until he buy s series instead of A series, na then u go see comparison .

Guys my Redmi note 10 went off by it self and has refused to power on since yesterday.
Battery was 3% wen it went off.

I have charged the battery but still not on.

I have tried to boot into fast boot by pressing volume up/down + power button. But none is working.

What's the solution pls

When you charge does the charging icon appear on your screen? Use another good charger to charge it for like an hour

Alexiz031:
Please I will appreciate suggestions. God bless us all

Thermocool Bobo or Captain, Sumec Firman SPG 2900. What do you mean by low noise?

Puvo:
I want to get a Sumec 4000spg for my 1.5hp royal inverter ac. Is it sufficient enough to power it with other load?

Yes.

genius43:
Is that all?

Just ignore.

micynute94:
At this point, I don't know if the Thermocool I bought from their show room is fake or my village ppl r just messing with my head.

It's one issh or the other.

Today, it can power my microwave, tomorrow, it would start heaving and coughing.

How can a 3.75Kva Thermocool not power up a 1.5hp Hisense Inverter AC?

Initially, it was working well for 3 weeks or so after increasing d speed of the gen but now.. It has refuse to do any meaningful work.

Gen repairer said it might be the carburetor because of the groaning sound it emits when you switch on the AC.

We have to later change the Caburetor since we have no other option. Yet, the problem hasn't go away. Last time, we reduced the speed to the minimum as that was the only time it worked without heaving and groaning for like 10 mins.

Switched it on again and voila.. Back to stage one.

I was told they might have to open up the engine to check the carburetor valve or something and I'm skeptical of that cos the moment they start opening up a gen, d lifespan no dey last esp if na trial n error approach.

Any help?

Usual current load is jst A.C and TV.

@gptech and other bosses in the house.

Just take it to any of their service center near you. Like you said, don't allow those guys to do guess work, don't even leave your gen with them, unless it's someone you really trust.

camera wise ..it's poor in the camera dept

I sure say na megapixel you look. If that's the case, it means that camera phones of 64mp and above are better than the likes of the Canon EOS R3 and Sony alpha A1 that cost over ₦4.5 million naira because their megapixels are lower.

Thank you for taking ur time out to reply, I appreciate you.

I check the oil most times. And if I did it very dirty before 2weeks, I change it.

Oil change is not done by how dirty the oil is, it's by running ours. The manufacturer of your gen recommends changing of oil after 100 hours of use.

Mkelv0106:
You're correct boss. Money is a factor, sumec is really expensive now, that's why I'm looking at other alternatives. What would you say about Kemage generators?

Can't say anything about kemage, some persons got some when they just came into the market and have no real challenge. The problem here is the Nigerian factor, standards are not adhered to because of corruption. It's still safer to go with the big brands at least reputation is at stake.

Mkelv0106:
Good morning big man. I'm looking to get a gen, but I cant make up my mind yet, between an Elepaq, and ITEC both 4.5va. I'd like ur advice on which btw d both of dem I shud pick

I think you are attracted by their prices. First the elepaq is not up to that rating and I can't advise anyone to buy iTec, at least not for now.

Jaiytech:
Please do you have any experience with Sumec TS 3000? The sales person here is asking me to buy it. It has key start and a timer. According to the the sales person, you can set the timer and it will automatically go off.

I like convenience, but I like peace of mind even more. I can hardly find it online. It is only on the Sumec website. I haven't seen it anywhere else.

Please is this a good buy?

That's a fake generation, a rip off of the Sumec spg 3000. Where did you see it online? Its not on Sumec website.

SyncForth:
Guys,

My Redmi 9 has been having issues this morning,

When I try to on it, it'll just show the Redmi and Android logo then go off immediately.

Tried fastboot it also sucked right here

How far with this?

Lesbihornest:
it’s not working. It just goes off and on. Na wa o

Leave it then on fastboot mode until the battery drains, then charge it and try turning it on .

Lesbihornest:
Thank you. I tried to hold the buttons down and it’s stuck here now.

Hold power button and volume up and try safe mode from there

Englandboy:
4000kv and my 3000kv

That gen is supposed to be noisier than yours all things being equal.

Englandboy:
my firman 3000kv I bought in 2019 and I don't use it more than 6 hours a day since I bought sound well than a recently new model generator type

Which particular gen are you comparing with? Note that engine size also affects noise level.

donshady:
That oil is too expensive . It's not bad for 2weeks. That oil does a good job

That na cheap oil na. If you use the gen everyday like you stated, you are killing the engine if you don't change oil weekly, piston and rings will soon shatter.

SyncForth:
Took it to Raya,
They said it's the panel,
50k for redmi 9 panel, phone we I buy 71k as of 2020

This is clearly software related, wetin b panel there? It's a pity bootloader is likely locked. It is for reasons like this I advise bootloader to remain unlocked, not necessarily for flashing roms.
Leave the phone on showing fastboot mode till the battery runs down, then charge it and try powering on, you may just be lucky.

donshady:
My review after 8months of usage (Runs at least 12hours daily)
Serviced 2times a month using Total 20w50

1. Engine seats got damaged.
2. Valve plate got damaged.
3. Recoil starter got damaged.
4. Exhaust silencer got Damaged.( Got welded by a welder)

All replaced and Generator is still working.

With this usage, oil should be replaced every week at least.

SyncForth:
Tried that already,
That's what brought up the fastboot image above

Power button and volume up should take you to recovery mode fastboot is power button and volume down..

SyncForth:
No signs at all.

I used this phone till around 11pm-1am this morning only to sleep off and wake up to it like this.

I did no update or whatsoever

Tried power button and volume up if it will take you to recovery mode?

Reddington:
Lol until they experience something entirely different & better, you can't say for sure. Most people used to be fine with Miui cam until they experienced Gcam.. Mi cam went though the window. Buh make we leave mata.
In the end, anyone can use whatever they feel comfortable/safe with.. Stay put for your comfort zone.. e get why

This is exactly why the tweaking thread was created, for those who want to explore.

OCTAVO:
Yeah, I'm considering that as well. Though I still need a phone with great camera, my eyes are on Samsung Galaxy S22 ultra at the moment, before I came across this thread.

But the Iphone 13 pro max is better than the S22 ultra for videos na, abi eyes dey turn me? .

Reddington:
Legendary ROM.. Super optimised, clean & near perfect with gorgeous Miui dailer/message, faster touch response, among other good stuff. People on Global roms don't know what they've been missing TBH, especially RN10Pro users..
Sorry for digressing, but I just felt like putting it out there again... People are allowing the fear of bricking their devices deny them optimum performance & the perfect Miui experience ... Follow the simple easy steps & you'll be fine

Most people are fine with official rom. No time for all the troubles that can come with flashing.

agentarcher:
Please I need an advice here. I'm playing on getting the 12x. I am thinking of getting the Chinese rom because it's cheaper. One of the disadvantages I have seen is bandwidth limitations. Google services is not an issue for me as I only use YouTube. As for gaming, I use my laptop. For phone calls, I use a small Nokia phone. Is it still advisable to get the Chinese rom and use a mifi to browse with it?

If you can live with mifi why not? Its a great device. Some sellers even ship the chinese version with Xiaomi.eu rom, means you can just download Google services directly from playstore. Note that bootlloader is unlocked already

OCTAVO:
How much is it? Hope it is 12gb/512gb?

I equally need phone with good camera for videos. IPhone 13 pro max didn't impress me, I just sold it after 3 weeks.

You don't need a phone then, get a camera.

Englandboy:
thanks I guess u mean the foam in it

Yes, the foam is the air filter.
