Baba be calming down..... I no get energy over this talk again. When i wanted to get something on Aliexpress and its over Over $100 close to $200 they declined my card i was shocked because i know GTB limit is $200 then i made my equiry and was told its now $100 that they reduced it. I wanted to use UBA and ZENITH same thing. I also came to complain and they suggested i use Access bank.

All my Argument with you about this i always point to you that as of last week it was $100.

Lastly i don't have to work in the bank to get my info.
And you stop arguing blindly.

What you don't know that even with the $200 limit, GTB limit their card usage on some platforms.

It was never $100 as at last week. Ever since it was raised to $200 it was not returned to $100. You are the one arguing blindly because you felt because it didn't work when you tried to make a purchase of over $100 it didn't go through, then it has been reduced to $100.

I'm here telling you that I work with GTB and it was never returned to $100 even as at last week, you are arguing. Who's arguing blindly between you and I?

Instead of you to ask the reason why it didn't work you didn't and instead concluded that it is now $100.

I work in that division and if it would be reduced, we'll be the first to know.

Next time, ask how you'll do it for it to work at $200 and don't make conclusions. For the past two months that limits have been raised to $200, it has never been reduced.

Now to the reason:

For two weeks now, GTB has issues with internet banking and online transactions. Reasons why some transactions go through and some do not. Hence, the conclusions from many people that limit is now $100 when actually it's not. It's fixed now though. Wey I see person wey pay for item of $155 last week? - some go through and some do not.

Ask, and you shall not be lost.

I'm thinking of purchasing the poco F3 phone. I have read a lot of good reviews about the phone and several YouTubers have named it the best budget smartphone of 2021. The 8GB/256 is currently going for about $330. Should i purchase the phone or would there be better release my Xiaomi this 2022?

Advice a brother please

Poco F3 is not bad. Will still go strong in the next 2 years but 2022 looks promising from Xiaomi. If you can wait, good. But F3 ain't bad at all.

@genius43

Please can you help me with the full ROM for this new update?

My phone RN9S is still lacking animations.

Even ordinary Redmi 9 I operated some days back had animations. The way the icons bounce on the home screen when you unlock the phone, smooth transitioning between apps, opening and closing animations for apps and Folders, etc.

All these are absent on my own phone.

I'm thinking maybe this new update might fix it?

Anyone else still experiencing this on Note 9s?

Some devices had animation removed. Redmi 9 too on 12.5 enhanced had it removed.

I equally switched from infinix note 4 pro with 4500 mah battery to xiaomi 10 with 5000 mah, but my xiaomi's battery performance beat infinix hands down, when I purchased my own I charged it first to 100% before using the phone, thought there is alot of myth about this method some look at at as insignificant, but for me I prefer to charge new battery for the first use. Next time you purchase new phone charge it to 100% for the first time and see the difference.

You shouldn't have bothered yourself quoting that guy. Everyone who's been following this thread knows he's a jobless Xiaomi troll, who has no purpose on nairaland, but to come here and troll this thread. He's quite jobless.
Next time don't give him that attention. He doesn't deserve your time.

It's a Miui enhanced thing. Reason why most people attested that their device feels smoother after updating to enhanced version. Update can bring it back and it might not.

I tried to order something if 180$ I was told I have reached my monthly limit, but I ordered something of 2$ it went,

Like I stated, GTB had issues with their internet banking and online transactions few weeks ago. Some go through and some do not.

Even those using virtual GTB card with $3000 limit had issues too. Doesn't mean the limit was reduced. Or will you say virtual card with $3000 limit have been reduced to $100 too even when it's still $3000? As an insider, I know this. The simple excuse some customer service rep will give you is that the limit is reduced but it's not.

Limit was increased to $200 since last two months for a physical naira master card. This is a common knowledge self.

It's normal for an outsider to argue this like the guy up there because that's what he's made to believe.

Happy new year guys...make una come to my aid ooo
Something I've never witnessed in my entire life happened to my phone yesterday.
When I came back from Church yesterday around 2pm, I plugged my phone and it was charging fine, I'd to unplug bcoz I want to get busy with the phone. Few hours later, I plugged the phone but refused to charge, I had to changed from one wall socket to another, but to no avail. I then started troubleshooting both the cable and charger. In a nutshell but are functioning well. I then connected to my PB, it is then charging but not fast charging any longer. Another shocking is that, when I connect my power delivery cable to BP, it doesn't charge at all
I've been charging the phone with PB since 10pm last night, uptil now 4:28am the following day, my phone is still at 52%, something that charges completely within 2hrs, even with the PB.
Please help me with way out, God bless y'all.

It seems you just switched from an infinix device because I saw you mentioning "xhide" somewhere. Sorry to disappoint you, Xiaomi cannot match infinix Interms of battery performance. Even the 5000mah on the Xiaomi I am currently using could NOT beat the 4000mah on the infinix I was using before.

How far that job ad you enquired about? I'm still on the lookout for you though.

Keeping inserting and removing the headphone till it removes. I will suggest you use a proper size of 3.5mm head connector

Unlock bootloader and flash fastboot ROM of the older version you want to flash. Mind you, you have to check for ARB on your device to be sure your device doesn't have anti roll back. If it has, just stay on the version you are on presently coz downgrading will damage your device.

Hello gurus,
Since I updated to 12.5.3.0 on my Redmi note 7, my phone has been switching off on any slight sound it makes; be it at the play of music, ringtone or notification tone. I can only have the phone on and stable when it's connected to a charger.

Could it be that there is an issue with the new update or it's hardware issue?
