Based on our previous talk of network bars and how they connote to how good our reception is, and how it takes toll on our battries, I did check it out and it was true.
In the pics, I had a full bar but checking the network strength, I saw it was terrible. I must say that the war our phone is fighting for us behind the scene just to give us good call and data quality can never be overemphasised.
I did write a little article on it but it got deleted and I got banned cos of links to the source I used but I'll repost it without the links here.

I just discovered my battery health is 94%, am surprised because I just bought this phone.
It lends credence to one of the things I wrote that the frequent use of fast charging may not be so nice to our phone battery.

A thief can steal your 100k phone and gladly sell it for 5k, only easy tracking and tracing can give me joy embarassed
That is the most painful that they can steal a 100k phone just to buy weed of 1k,it is the buyer who'll likely suffer every other thing but it is still good to make whosoever that is involved to suffer small. but we and our properties are in God's mercy.

You need unlocked bootloader to use fastboot rom
And before you'd unlock bootloader, you'll need access to developer settings which one can't without unlocking the phone.
I love that a phone thief will be only able to sell it off as scram when he steals my phone.
Thanks for the update.

Yeah. The Mi feature works just as great as the iCloud lock on iPhones it's really great.
Shey! Even if a fastboot rom is flashed to that device, it won't unlock?
Is there ever going to be a way to unlock it without the password ?
Cos its high time these phone thieves are given hard time and pain to sell whatever they stole.

Hi guys! I've been using my infinix note 4 pro for about 3years now. I want to get a new phone, preferably a Samsung phone but I'm just lost on which to buy. My budget is about 100k. I'd love to get a phone with strong battery capacity and a RAM of 4gb.

Please guys I need suggestions �
Though I don't know how much you trust xiaomi but am sure you won't regret it if you go for the redmi note 9s the 6/128 gb version. Am using the note 9 pro and it is an all rounder. Try it out and see plus xiaomi makes sure they push updates both to solve bugs and security patches and sometimes major android upgrades.

Hmm. Wait for his number to go through or juts chat him up via Jiji since he didn't delete his account.
I was asking after one can secure his phone like this so that even if it is stolen, it will be useless for the thief and here is a confirmation.
Someone said the mi account can be deleted but up till now, I've not found how.
So am going to secure my own phone by making the mi cloud account more secure.

Please in redmi 6 pro, the sniper 3d I installed was cracked or modded that I can get free gold, coins and diamonds to buy good guns as that was what made the game interesting to me but I used mi mover to move same game to my note 9 pro, as it stands I can't get those free things and my gun is now a hunting dane gun that is both loud and inaccurate that sometimes the person am suppose to kill do kill me first. Please who knows a site to download the modded version with free diamonds and coins as I love that game like die?
HealthWhy Do Mosquitoes Buzz Around The Ear? by LtChisom(op): 8:34am On Jul 22, 2020
Yes! Am grateful I got up to 6 hours sleep today, my grandfather had asthma, I've seen some of it from my father's line infact, our last born sometimes suffers breathing problems if in contact with allergens but I've never suffered any of those but I can sneeze like 100 times if an insecticide is sprayed wherever I am, am an animal activist and most times I advocate for natural ways to eliminate animals that we ain't comfortable with in our environment.

Am a little bit hairy and hate sleeping with clothes; I enjoy that early moments of sleep before the deep sleep but once I hear that mosquito buzz sound, that is all, my nap is over and I hate it cos I find it hard to sleep without an external help most times.

I use to think the mosquitoes are angry they can't get a place to feed on my body so they disturb my sleep so that I can unconsciously turn to expose a softer and blood richer part, or they are outrightly punishing me for depriving them of they meal, my only comfort and temporal joy is the sight of bursting them whenever I wake up as am reciprocating their gesture.

I love not to be wrong or ignorant, why would mosquitoes do that in the first place, as usual, google: THEY'RE ACTUALLY SINGING MATING SONGS FOR EACH OTHER. WTF! So my ear is their love garden park and spot, first of all why do mosquitoes drink blood?

Mosquitoes (alternate spelling mosquitos) comprise a group of about 3,500 species of small insects that are flies (order Diptera). Within Diptera they constitute the family Culicidae (from the Latin culex meaning "gnat"wink. The word "mosquito" (formed by mosca and diminutive -ito) is Spanish for "little fly". Mosquitoes have a slender segmented body, one pair of wings, one pair of halteres, three pairs of long hair-like legs, and elongated mouthparts.

The mosquito life cycle consists of egg, larva, pupa, and adult stages. Eggs are laid on the water surface; they hatch into motile larvae that feed on aquatic algae and organic material.

Once they leave the larval stage through molts — phases in which they shed their skins — mosquitoes become pupae. Mosquito pupae do not feed at all. Instead, all of their fuel for this stage of life must be acquired during the larval stage.

Eventually, the pupae rise to the water’s surface, sprout wings and become the adult mosquitoes with which we're all familiar. Here the mosquito’s food pyramid broadens rather than narrows. Why? It all comes down to the difference between male and female mosquitoes.
In the world of mosquitoes, You may be surprised to learn that mosquitoes are primarily vegetarians, and they only occasionally indulge in carnivorous cravings. Adult mosquitoes are either male or female. Like butterflies, bees and many other insects, all male and female mosquitoes have a nutritional need for sugar, which can be supplied by the nectar of flowering plants.
However, once they reach adulthood, female mosquitoes are ready to breed and lay eggs. To do this, they require protein and lipids—both of which are found in the blood of other animals.
The adult females of most species have tube-like mouthparts (called a proboscis) that can pierce the skin of a host and feed on blood,

The reason why only female mosquitoes drink blood is so that they can nourish their child-bearing bodies. Blood is full of proteins and amino acids, which makes it the perfect prenatal supplement for growing mosquito eggs, which is why only female mosquitoes drink blood. When female mosquitoes aren’t drinking your blood, they eat plant nectar just like their male counterparts. Meanwhile, male mosquitoes simply still need the sugar meals.
In a nutshell, your blood is fueling the next generation of mosquitoes. It’s sad (and a bit gross) but true!

Thousands of mosquito species feed on the blood of various hosts ⁠— vertebrates, including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and some fish; along with some invertebrates, primarily other arthropods. This loss of blood is seldom of any importance to the host.

The mosquito's saliva is transferred to the host during the bite, and can cause an itchy rash. In addition, many species can ingest pathogens while biting, and transmit them to future hosts. In this way, mosquitoes are important vectors of diseases such as malaria, yellow fever, Chikungunya, West Nile, dengue fever, filariasis, Zika and other arboviruses.

A female mosquito ready to lay eggs doesn't need to feed exclusively on human blood. Birds, like crows, jays, robins and sparrows, must also fend off biting mosquitoes. The same goes for waterfowl, such as ducks, geese and herons. Outside of the bird kingdom, small mammals such as raccoons have a place on the mosquito’s food pyramid, as do some snakes, lizards, frogs and fish.

While some mosquito species, like the tiger mosquito, do prefer to drink human blood, the real reason mosquitoes bite humans is because they often present the most attractive target when their preferred food source is in short supply.

Studies have shown that female mosquitoes have a few preferences when it comes to choosing the perfect human to drink from and mosquitoes are alerted to the presence of a nearby food source by a number of factors, including movement, smell, the source’s carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and much more. The average human being exhales more CO2 than, say, a squirrel, and makes a bigger blip on the hungry female mosquito’s radar and an easier overall target. The human body also features odor-producing chemicals that, while unpleasant or undetectable to us, make the female mosquito’s mouth water.

Blood Type O – A majority of humans release a chemical through their skin that indicates their blood type. Mosquitoes have the ability to detect this, and studies have shown that mosquitoes prefer Type O blood over A or B types (Stromberg, J., 2013)

Exercise, Sweat, and High Body Temperature – Imagine being outside cutting the grass or hiking out in the woods. Your body temperature is rising and you’re sweating more and more. The buildup of lactic acid, uric acid, and ammonia, all found in sweat, are strong attractants to mosquitos (Stromberg, J., 2013)

Pregnancy – The cycle of life can be a bit strange, and according to the study, female mosquitos like a pregnant woman’s blood to feed their own growing babies (Stromberg, J., 2013)

Most female mosquitos only drink blood during the early morning and during sunset, as they seek shelter during the hottest parts of the day. However, Asian Tiger mosquitos will hunt all day, and disturbing a mosquito’s nest will prompt them to go after your tasty blood!

Are human beings a mosquito delicacy? Maybe so. But many of us know firsthand that our position at the top of the mosquito food pyramid doesn't mean we rarely get bitten. Mosquitoes begin breeding mere days after achieving maturity, and female mosquitoes can live for more than one month and lay thousands of eggs.

Before I conclude, let’s get some facts straight.
Both male and female mosquitoes buzz, since they both have wings, but you probably won’t notice the whine of the males, because they don’t want to drink your blood. So they stay away from your ears, eating nectar, while the females come near to annoy you.
Two, the buzzing sound is made by them when they flutter their wings very fast, as fast as 250 times per second!

There is actually some scientific research done on this issue and there is a result even though it might not be 100% reliable. Basically, the main reason why they like buzzing around your ear so much is that they are attracted to the smell. You see, with the exception of our belly button, our ear is one of the dirtiest places in our bodies, especially the insides of the ear.

If the ears are not cleaned regularly, they form ear wax, which emits a smell that mosquitoes love, thus they will tend to go for that smell.

Scientists have discovered that the buzz of mosquitoes is more than just a way to annoy you. It’s actually important to help them find suitable mates.

Since female mosquitoes are larger, they flap their wings slower, and males know it. They use the distinctive pitch of the females’ buzz to recognize them. Louis M. Roth, who studied yellow fever mosquitoes for the U.S. Army during World War II, noticed that males ignored females whenever the females were quietly resting, but whenever the females were flying, and therefore buzzing, the males wanted to mate with them. The males even wanted to mate with recordings of female mosquitoes or tuning forks that vibrated at the same pitch.

There is also another theory: they do so because they are attracted to the carbon dioxide which you emit when you exhale, but that is not proven yet.

At least now, we all know we shouldn't just hate them straight away, it ain't their fault and we should temper justice with mercy to these beautiful animals.

Your phone isn't useless and if it's doing all you need it to then it's okay.
If you're looking to make a change then you can get more recent huawei devices, maybe even something in the mate series.
If you're happy with what you have then leave it at that.
But stop the comparison with newer models, that's just not how anything works.

Xiaomi has been delayed the MIUI 12 beta update for Xiaomi Redmi Note 7, Redmi Note 8, Mi MIX 3, Mi CC9e and has temporarily suspended for Mi MIX 2S. This update has been delayed due to some issues and bugs.

The reasons for delaying the update of the above devices are divided into two. The Redmi Note 7 MIUI 12 beta update has been delayed due to the OTG connection issue.

On another side, updates for Redmi Note 8, Mi Mix 3, and Mi CC9e have been delayed due to a stability issue. This was done because the package was unable to compile successfully.

The only obstacle crossing was the beam henching which out of 10, I did 10 but was recorded that I didn't do the last one right. I climbed the rope and touched the beam too. For the pressup and situps, most of us were helped,
I studied electrical engineering and was expecting a though question during the oral interview, was surprised I was asked about transformers and questions which an ordinary secondary school physics student will answer, though i failed the current affairs question of how many geopolitical regions that is in Nigeria, out of tension I couldn't guess right.
