no updates even if I try to it won't even make any attempt to check for updates

Ok, please download cpu z and take screenshots of the phone's info displayed, the pics you uploaded looks like the original but, I have seen cases like this before. Your rom nomenclature is already different.

chrisja:
Hello guys, BTW xiaomi earphone & rock, which has better ruggedness??

Xiaomi = Ruggedness
Rock = Sound output

Just imagine, adding salt to injury.

veekid:

Where u for see Redmi Note 5A pro?

veekid:
can this work note 5A prime?

Yes, just select Redmi Y1, that's your device.

itsloba:
Thanks baba, the price difference between rn4 n r5 is not that much I believe

Yea, very similar price with Redmi 5 plus.

itsloba:
Good day family. Quick advice needed. The big boys snatched my rn4 from me few days ago
Now wanna start saving for a new redmi phone. Should I stick with my rn4 or upgrade to r5 or r5p.

Upgrade to Redmi note 5 if the cash is there, otherwise you can settle for Redmi 5 plus.
Sorry for the loss.

Good evening everyone. Pls I'm new here, I've been reading the comments here on this thread, so far I've been really impressed by when level of phones and specs that xaiomi is offering, that was why I waisted no time when I saw a fairly used mi note 4 lte (that's the model I saw) at a reasonable price (30k) but so far I have a lfeeling that the phone I bought is a fake or clone cos everything seems different from the reviews I've been reading about expecially performance wise, the specs says 3gig ram and 64gig internal memory but the phone lags a lot when I'm playing games or browsing photos on Facebook. I have a 32gig backup from the memory card of my previous phone that was stolen (infinite note 3) when I tried to transfer the files to the mi note by it got to 4gig surprisingly the phone started showing not enough memory. The camera quality is very poor and the video records 3gp format. I just want to be sure if I got the wrong phone or if there is something I'm not doing right. Pls I'm waiting.

Clone, it's smelling like 100% clone. Download cpu z and screenshot for us to see. The name of the phone doesn't exist and the status bar the 4G signal makes it even more suspicious.
Please snap both front and back of the phone, and have you got any update notification so far?

- Infinix Note 4 Pro would have been the best but the Processor is just 1.3GHz Octacore.
- L9+ would have been another suite for you but the Front Camera is 5MP
- What I would recommend you get and overlook it's 4000mAH battery is Infinix Zero 4...See the spec... It can make man run madt.

Camera: 20.7MP/13MP
Screen Resolution: 1080x1920
Processor: Decacore (2.1GHz Dualcore + 1.4GHz Quadcore + 1.85GHz Octacore = 5.35GHz Decacore)
RAM: 4GB
ROM: 32GB (expandable to 128GB via Memory Card)
Graphics: 368ppi

Bros... Infinix Zero 4 Plus is a goal!!!
Jump on it if and whenever you can.

My number is 08136495877...I can recommend something else for you if you wish.

Where did you get that calculation from? .

SuperSuave:
4gb RAM, 32gb ROM, 5.35GHz DECAcore see mad specs o. Thanks bro. I just hope the price is not beyond 80k

5"35GHz decacore? Woooow! Where you do guys dey these figures? Nawa ooo.

ajog1:
Ain't you making the other pro reviewers reel in fear of how you could likely get them off their game? Ehm! Nice one chairman. BTW, is it a unit of the redmi note 5/pro or redmi 5 plus you have got on hand?

Here we go again .

fibonacci2526:
So I have used the Redmi 5 as my daily driver for the past 48hrs and all have got good vibes with it. You wouldn't know it's a 720p resolution as colours reproduction and viewing angles aren't that bad tbh. The phone is much more compact ,narrower than my oneplus 5 and I could use it conveniently with one hand which was a surprise given how small my hands are. lolll.

Battery life is surprisingly good for a 3300mah capacity and I got a 7hr SOT on a my first full battery cycle even when I left Lagos and move to another state with terrible network,it still did fairly well. I used it for social medias, browsing, office mails, streamed videos. The idle time is also good as I lost only 2% battery overnight.

Camera quality isn't bad too, really took some nice pictures but for the sake of privacy wouldn't be able to upload any on here.The details are sharp and all when you zoom in.

Sd450 is really good, coming from a device with sd835 I was pleasantly surprised at how much it fared. Though occasionally it lags when using Twitter but it really did well with its snappiness being a "entrylevel-budget" chipset.

CONS;

I found out that the device doesn't play well with Nova launcher as the navigation bar was still white after using it as my default launcher so I was forced to remain with the system launcher.

No quick reply for the Redmi 5 yet but hopefully we get the 9.5x update soon.

If you are on a budget and you like compact devices, would advise you to go for this device. I really like what xiaomi did with this one and it's a winner in my book.

Your love for black sha, no wonder dem go still dey confuse ur gender . U don put 6D screen guard on dat one too abi? Considering your Nova launcher ish, even wen u customise notification panel from miui theme app, na still white e dey give out?

fibonacci2526:
Lollll.

Oya naaaa.

fibonacci2526:
Gptech see nor be only me and jboixxx. More people sef dey affected. lolll.

I still dey surprised ooo, wonders they say .

goldtooth:
i dont know if it is called sim card lock, but i understand that when a xiaomi phone with mi account and cloud lock is stolen, even if the phone is flashed with another ROM, it will be useless except they enter the MI account password. More like Apple Cloud lock. That is what i am referring to. That is what i want on this new Redmi 4a i got

Then lock it from Mi cloud if you haven't, that's all you need to do.

goldtooth:
Pls how do i set up Mi cloud lock on my phone properly. My first redmi 4a was stolen and i got another one. Now i was thinking i had it set up, but when i swap sims and enter the correct pin the phone opens and works well with a new sim. I feel pained now because i felt i set it up well on the stolen phone. How do i set it up so that when the sim is changed the phone becomes unusable.

CC: grandmufti, Fibonacci2526 and gptech

Did you lock the stolen phone after the incident? Was your Mi Account logged in?

jboixxx:
It no de work o, but me no even bother about it sef. It's been where I left it since God knows when.

Very strange, maybe na only una two since nobody don complain here since .

fibonacci2526:
This is my first redmi phone wey that thing dey work as it is my preferred setting. Works like a charm with redmi 5.

This is serious ooo, the only Redmi phone I observed that with, issue was fixed after updating, I think Redmi 4x, phone wen auto brightness nr dey work, I nr fit use ooo.

jboixxx:
That auto brightness is a fluke on my RN4 o. Works nada

Seriously? Jesu! , have always been using that since Redmi note 2,can't remember when last I adjust brightness manually especially in outdoors. So u mean say ur own nr dey work since, Fibonacci2526 too

fibonacci2526:
Jboixxx abeg add this one to your compilation. Shook redmi 5 sef for there.

We dey wait your review ooo.

frekyfrik:
Thank you, Sisterly. Please amongst these model redmi note 5 Pro, REDMI note 5 plus, Redmi Note 5 and Redmi Note 5A Prime and Mi Max 2, which one will be your no. 1 top pick

Let's make it easy for you, its actually between Redmi note 5 (this is basically what is called the Redmi note 5 pro in India), Redmi 5 plus, Mi Max 2, and Redmi note 5A Prime. In descending order this is how it goes :
Redmi note 5
Mi Max 2
Redmi 5 plus
Redmi Note 5A Prime.

sinaj:
okay.

The phone is durable, mine doesnt heat at all, always on 36degree.

One thing I love about it, is the ba3. I can use it till 7pm in d night if its fully charged at 6a.m.
I dont play much games tho but my data is always on nd I use 4g.

It has Irs blaster which I use to cause trouble in d house atimes lol. I will put off d tv with my fone while my brothers are playing pes nd watch them fumble with d electric switch trying to find d fault
I go soon chop slap one day sha

You can use it to control dvds too, fan, ac nd anything remotable

The camera is very okay for me, but d ugly thing about the camera is dat different camera sensors is been used in d xme fone. But they are still okay

It uses a 3gig ram so it doesnt hang at all.

Will advice u to go for 64g rom if u have enough money on u.

D processor is very kul too for d price.

I think d only problem i got with d fone is d back, its too smooth nd wont give u a firm grip so u wnt be able to do without phone casing nd I hate phone casing coz it hides d phones beauty.

Lastly, it got a very fragile screen frm reviews but tp glass got u covered here.

Miui always roll out updates so u gat nothing to worry abt in terms of bugs or soft ware ish.

Hope av bin able to epp u sha.

Dis ur network resemble Glo sha, otherwise e clr say d network mast don almost collapse .

Sprintx24:
My Ogas, I bring you all greetings. I am having a serious issue with my Redmi Note 4x that needs urgent attention and solution. I updated my phone to MIUI 9.5.4 nightly 3 days ago. After the update, the phone started misbehaving, switching off automatically whenever the message in the screenshot below comes up. The phone freezes and turns of when I press cancel or the report button. This evening it got even worse, right now, the home button and the menu button or minimise buttons are no longer working. I mean, they don't respond anymore. Please I need help. An advice or directives on what to do will be highly appreciated. I am just so frustrated at the moment. Please kindly help. Thanks everyone.. Attached is the picture of the error I have been getting since the update. These two buttons refusing to work is making the usage of this phone miserable...

Also, how can I remove the mi browser as my default browser?

If you have not rebooted which I doubt do it now, if problem persists, copy your important files to an external memory and do a factory reset. Nightly updates can be very unstable and should be done if you are ready for experiments. If you eventually get it fixed, don't hesitate to update to the next available release rom.

For the browser, go to settings - Installed apps - browser - clear default.

Xiaomi is confused....
Redmi note 4x
Redmi 4A
Redmi 5a prime
Redmi 5
Redmi 5 plus
Redmi note 5
Redmi note 5 pro
Redmi 4x
You can add yours

The list is endless bro, one who is new to Xiaomi needs to do a proper research before making the right decision, even Gsmarena and other notable sites still get confused sometimes .
