Contact KunlexyInc1.

Ahmednagar:
I download WhatsApp messenger through Play store

But once I want to login they'll ask me to unofficial WhatsApp

Same app I download from Play store

Kindly help please

That's what this thread is all about, your rom is seen as not official that's why this is happening. I don't think there is a way out unless you find a way to root the phone and flash some files.

Ahmednagar:
Tecno pop 5 go

I don't think there's a custom rom for your phone, what's the issue?

Ahmednagar:
How can I do that please

Which phone do you use.

Which one will be a good phone to upgrade to coming from Realme GT NEO 2

Redmi Turbo 4 pro
Oppo K13 turbo pro
Realme GT 7 China
Iqoo Neo 10pro plus
Oneplus Ace 5 Ultra

All have similar screen sizes which am comfortable with and large battery too.

Where i have problems deciding is their camera lens and Os experience

Xiaomi and Realme no be stranger to me.

Oneplus and Oppo has similar OS experience with Realme, my main concern is Funtouch OS

Thanks

It seems you have settled for the Iqoo Neo 10pro plus but your concern is in the os. I take it that you are someone who likes to explore. I don't see anything to be afraid of with the os, afterall it has one of the best processors available on any smart phone today.

Interestingly, the seller has 5 star reviews from buyers, that's why I ordered from him.

Again, yes the phone is old (running android 10), but my plan was to unlock the bootloader and then flash the latest custom firmware on it (I already saw online quite a number of roms for the device). That's why I went for it, in addition to it's small size.

Nawa ooo, the average Chinese is not too different from the average Nigerian. It's better to just avoid getting used devices from China then. If not for strict regulations on the part of Aliexpress, many of us would have been burnt ; even at that, some sellers still find their way around being dubious.

Olamak1:
One reason I'll never buy used xiaomi phones on Aliexpress again!

I ordered redmi 6 pro in March this year to support my RN13, only to discover that it's a Chinese version running on global Rom. All attempts to update the software to the latest version have failed.

Besides, the device also fails product authentication test from Xiaomi, and when I contacted seller to know why I couldn't update the software and sign into Xiaomi account, his response was: "don't try to update the phone by yourself". At that point, and after much findings into the matter, I realised that na ẹbu seller con send give me.

That device is old sha. But some of those so called used phones on AliExpress have had some parts replaced by their previous owners. If you read reviews you'll see so many complaints. If you must buy used on AliExpress, ensure the seller is highly recommended from user reviews.

Misterlecturer:
Thanks so much for ur advice. I really appreciate. Concerning the battery life, if I'm buying, I'm not buy a used one. On the price, I'm seeing 400/450 on AliExpress. Thanks once again 👍🏽

You won't get a new one anywhere! It's better you buy used from trusted sellers here, at least you'll get one with Global rom. The ones on AliExpress are used and some have Chinese roms flashed. You better check the description of items you buy on AliExpress, some sellers are dubious.

Doesn't make the phone trashy, simply do a factory reset and you'll be fine. Even flagship models from Samsung have had issues like this before. For the price of the Redmi 14c, is there any other device you have in mind that you don't consider as waste of money?

kemmycool:
14T? I have never had of such.

Don't worry, that phone is wayyyyyyy above your budget, over 600k.

emeraldlife:
That phone is piece of waste. I bought it for my mum and decided to test it. The three apps I downloaded and opened crashed the second time.

It will be good for her but coming from that brand feels like money wasted.

Coming from which brand? Which apps were you trying to download that crashed? If you bought a new phone that crashes apps, you should either update the phone, do a factory reset or both.

NeoWanZaeed:
Can I use redmi 12 charger (adapter) for 14C

Yes of course, the Redmi 14c supports a maximum of 18W. That 33W charger included in the Redmi 14c box, just take it as a freebie just incase you eventually get a device that supports a faster charging speed.

NeoWanZaeed:
I plan on getting Redmi 14C 8gig variant. The rate I'm seeing people putting the phone up for sale at Facebook marketplace is alarming. Front, right, left, center ni you'll see post regarding Redmi 14 C for sale.

This is giving a kinda bad vibe about the phone. Is the phone peculiar to certain issues that warrants reselling ni abi bawo

There's no known issue plaguing the Redmi 14c as far as I know. I believe many people are still ignorant about Xiaomi's naming scheme. Many don't know for instance that getting a Redmi 14c coming from a Redmi note 10 is a downgrade. I even saw a thread here where some persons were insinuating the Redmi note 14 is higher than the Xiaomi 12 the op was trying to sell. The Redmi c series are low end devices, they are the least phones I can recommend. I don’t mean to shade anyone but those are the phones I recommend for our grandparents nowadays. I think some of those trying to offload the phone bought it out of ignorance, that's my point.

Same set up.

Is your friend experiencing heating issues of any sort?? The SN 888, from reviews is said to be a powerful SOC but heats up easily. (NB: this is based on other user experience)

Naa, no heating issues. He is not a gamer but on normal usage it's cool. The Mi 11 Ultra is actually equipped with a cooling system so it doesn't suffer as much from the overheating issues the plagued many devices running the SD 888.

atheistandproud:
Mad phone that year 😍

I dey tell you .

Mrluv:
Expert in the house someone wants to sell redmi note 10 pro for me 150k does it worth it in 2025??

It depends on what you are after in a phone. Some persons won't be bothered with their phones provided they can do basic tasks on it no matter how long it takes to get them done. Others prefer longer battery life and don't even care about camera or screen quality. Which user are you? What are you priorities?

Note : Add the cost of replacing battery to the 150k.

BrickDevo:
why don't you show with your M11 ultra?

I don't own one, it belongs to a friend. Make I use the opportunity upload . Mi 10 +Lr as usual.

More food items, Mi 10 + LR

dmgr:
Just keep in mind that there is no longer software update, and the battery life would have deteriorated due to age of the phone. (Charge cycle)

Aside that I think the SD 888, even thou old can still hold up in 2025.

And another vital thing to consider is the price, if you can get it at very good price then go for it, if not look elsewhere.

Very correct about the battery ish. For the software part, I don't think that's an issue personally. But we all have our preferences. I don’t think you are missing out on anything significant running an older software. Still have a Mi max running on Android 7, the battery just recently gave way.

Misterlecturer:
Hello guys, is the Mi 11 Ultra still good for use in 2025? I like the phone & I'm thinking of buying it. I'll appreciate your responses.

Depends on you but I will take it over even the unreleased Redmi note 15 pro+ any day! I know of someone who uses it together with a Pixel 9 pro xl. Just ordered for another case for the 11 ultra.
You can check this video for a brief camera comparison with the 15 ultra.

TheCeasar:
thanks for the suggestion but I've done that before but still the same

Then lock the app too and close all apps you are using, that your 4gig ram is not helping matters at all.

TheCeasar:
Good evening everyone, I'm having issue on my Redmi note 11. My apps always refresh/restart whenever I open another.

For example yesterday when I tried to logging to my binance, they sent me an email so before I clicked on the Gmail and come back to binance again, the app closes,

Even on Twitter, I can't even use grok to upload a photo because it closes and restart.

Please what can I do to stop the issue?

Turn off miui battery saver plus learn to lock such apps you don't need to restart. Your ram is indeed too small.

TheCeasar:
oh boy so I can't do anything about it? What a waste of money and I just bought it newly.

I can't even minimize without it restarting

You can definitely do something about it. Turn off miui battery saver.
I am not on hyper os, but it should work same way

Long time! December 2020, just saw this on my gallery, Mi 9t.
When tomatoes was cheap

genius43:
It is that price deception someone will use to be comparing Redmi Note 14 Pro plus and Poco X7 Pro or Poco F7 Pro

Some people go learn the hard way! Sometimes na to leave them to buy wetin dem want. Imagine complaining say Redmi A3x dey hang because you buy am 120k.
Imagine Redmi note 9s that was sold for around 85k then, with this current exchange rate na over 270k.

Jarchi:


° Brodaman, Stop it, don't compare a near flagship phone with a high midrange phone. When you see the name Xiaomi alone in the product name, be assured of flagship spec, redmi is midrange. Don't let price fool you. °

udemzyudex:
I just switch back to Xiaomi after over 2 years, pls how do I enhance the colour scheme on this Xiaomi 12t Pro for vibrant colour display?
I'm currently using this.

Just leave this colour advanced settings and stick to saturated.

@noenly
Go to settings-About phone, then screenshot. If your phone runs on Chinese rom or a custom rom, this can happen.
