Kazzonline87:


You and new accounts ehn,u nko dey sound like all dos cc wey tell me to forfeit my hard earned 40dollars to open a new account,i bin wan cry grin,he doesnt need one for now sha,cos as d guy dey,if he opens a new one,he wud still find him sef at dis same stage with same issue,my advice let him wait for the mail,it wud prolly be a mail to do alipay verification,as well,he wud stil av to appeal many cards,if dos one nor nko work,he can open a new account,
I forgot to advice him sef,loading a 100dollars at a go is not advisable,break it into 20*5

AliExpress processes can't be predicted. Didn't go through OTP at all on the new account I created for someone last week and no AliPay verification too. So, just wondering the imptc AliPay verification if not for all new account.

rookidmart:

What do you mean by "one was not confirmed"?
I guess he's talking about the payment confirmation by AliExpress that takes place within 24hrs of payment before the seller processes the order.
Gmajor, if not confirmed, your account will not be debited or approve your refund. Wait may wait 24hrs more or you check your account statement if the amount was actually deducted.

It works like that....But subsequent payment with such cards will lead to APPEAL

From what I observed, cards you have made an appeal using go thru (all times) and can be used even if you have a pending appeal for another card

Please note that All Xiaomi phones can be used in Nigeria, THey are not Lock, just the bands and ROM may differ
Most of there are released for China first then the International ROM later, ROM is the Software install on the Phone.

Hehehehe even the Chinese rom is written in English language, just a few apps useless to you are in Chinese.
Ok, for your question, get the global stable rom and you are good. Buy the phone you are talking of, there is no issue with network providers here, unless you want to buy a phone because of glo 4G, you don't have any issue with the Mi Max.

What do you mean by "one was not confirmed"?
when you buy something it goes to payment waiting confirmation and later goes to goods awaiting confirmation.
the payment was not confirmed and the order was then cancelled.

Hybrid sim ( one micro SD + sim or two sims)
Very good battery life ( 1.5 days, light to moderate use)
Gaming .. having only seen my madam play all dem knock dem games candy crush, pet rescue, it easily handles them; I expect the snapdragon 430 and Adreno 308 to struggle with high end games.. Not much of a gamer so I might be wrong.. If you want to store heavy apps or games, that 9/10 GB you get out of the box ( that's all you get after MIUI don collect im share) your memory will fill up pretty quick and you cannot move apps to internal storage on MIUI.. Camera is average, but good for this price..If you want a simple phone that does all the basics right ( no lag or stutter so far) then its for you.. But as you don mention gaming, aim slightly higher bro ( snapdragon 625 32gb should be ur starting point, Redmi 4 pro).. This is my honest opinion.. Once I gather small change I will sell hers and get note 4 just because of the small internal memory.. 16 GB is just not good enough in this day and age..I won't buy them again..
it's SD 425 actually.

Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by onwards: 4:04pm On Mar 07, 2017
Picked up my Mi Max yesterday. Still settling into the new device. And yes! It is massive. grin You'll get used to it though with time. I am used to it already cheesy
The battery is awesome. Since 7am at 99 percent I used it nonstop (browsing, some music and video streaming) with data on, hotspot on (intermittently for about 2 hours) brightness at Auto, wifi on ( intermittently for about 30mins) and about an hour without use. I've still got 47 percent.
Total SOT is nearly 5.5hours.
Totally stood up to the hype. The display is great too. You might want to set contrast to cool. I found the mode more comfortable for my eyes.

Thanks to everyone who contributes/contributed to the thread. One way or another you eased the entire process.

It's every calendar month.
So you can use it on 31st March and again on 1st April.

Instead of waiting for next month you can open an Access bank account, or use someone's GTB card (be ready to appeal sha)

After the update, my battery from 100% did just 7hrs and a few mins on h+. I watched a few online videos about 10mins, checked a few sites and used WhatsApp, bbm and telegram. I turned off my data for like 30mins. All the while my brightness was on average. I use just one sim
This one is strong! shocked


Even my 3000mah redmi 4A is not so weak.
How many hours on-screen time did you use it for?

I think the battery is faulty!
isn't it a 4000mah?
