There's something you need to understand about Android OS, whether you browse or not; as long as your data is activated all logged in apps(Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, Google Services, Emails, WhatsApp, Telegram, etc) will definitely access the internet keeping you upto date whether opened or not. It's easy to control how much data to use when on mobile data but difficult to control how much data to use when on WiFi network.

Mind you, no one is snooping on your WiFi network.

Na mi max i dey use o, not mi max 2.

In another news, someone informed me a few days ago, all her contacts where merged together, as in, she calls Tolu and Paul comes up, she will search for tolani and wen she dial it, Mathew will pop up instead. I made a few suggestion to her, lie if her contacts were saved on her Gmail, she can go ahead and delete her contacts and restore it through Google bt that hasn't been successful. To my great surprise this morning, was on phone with my cousin, before d call went off, i tried to dial back and different contacts were showing on dial call each time i dial (wtf). I checked d contact and saw 2 different phone number, i choose d 1 I wanna call and yet, same issue. Anyone here having that issue? Please note that it's not on same phone bt same rom and different Android version, me, am on Android 7, while d oda person is on Android 6, both miui is on 8.5.1.0

Nope. I didn't.
I was getting Live pictures though.
The packaging of that phone is worth living for.

The problem should be from the ROM then.

Either you downgrade, or you backup your contacts, delete them and start over.


MizMyColi, classthread captain, good morning.


Doing more findings. All those on miui global stable 8.5.1 should pls step forward. But it seems its Google that's messing it up, i checked my mi account, it's clean, whatsapp clean, Yahoo clean, sim clean bt d contacts with issues only on Google.

Even if i delete my Google contacts, after restoring, those contacts will still be there bt to be on d safe side, am trying to secure my device from a possible Malware for now

Na Google u dey use as default contact or Mi account? Use mi account.


Was using "ALL", now i switch to Google because of its features. Yet to notice any more merged contacts.

For those having this issue, they should stop dialing phone numbers on their phones, if they have a 2nd phone, they should use it. From what i can deduce so far, it only happens to d numbers u have have contacts with recently, maybe maybe on whatsapp or call. In my case, only numbers i dialed bring out issues (merged with new contacts), others are clean (unless it's d merged contact 2)

The main features include you getting updates every Friday like I have this morning , some changes in system settings I can't recall now, you get some added features on photo edit tools, ability to take selfies with either timer or voice, I feel camera is better too, you can record time lapse videos at full HD, you have screen recorder app plus the features are being improved by the day like, you can decide to record your voice or a background music or sound with what your screen records.

Some screenshots below.
How do i switch from stable to Developer ROM?
Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by itycyril: 10:08am On Jul 14, 2017
Often people find it convenient to complain when their supposed expectations aren't met but would fail to speak up whenever they default. I dare to be different.
Recently I've carefully followed the Xiaomi thread and would seldom miss a day. I appreciate the ambiance.
Protein0, noobody, gptech, Fibonacci, princetom1, emaminaj, mizmycoli, smartty68, rokitmart et al you guys are doing a great job. Your effortlessness made me appreciate the Xiaomi brand and yearned for one.
Recently I lost my phone and immediately contacted Protein0 and the guy did so well at responding to my many (some non essential) questions. Unfortunately I couldn't lay my hands on the phone as wished and was kinda coerced to make way with what was available.
In all, I want to publicly apologise to Protein0. I am really sorry for stressing you and subtly pressuring you to salvage my situation. I felt bad when you mentioned calling my line since about 5pm. Kindly pardon me please.

However I recommend Protein0 to anyone intending a business transaction with him. Humanly he is HONEST, SMART and DEDICATED

I look forward to more successful business transactions with you and hopefully i'll join the Xiaomi family sooner than later.
Kind regards folks

The reasons for merged or duplicated contacts most times could be as a result of saving contacts on phone or sim or could be resynchronized from Google account from previous device the moment you add your Google account on your new device and enable auto-sync.

The best way to evade these issues most times is to;
1. Login Gmail
2. Locate Contact
3. Click on More
4. Click Select & Merge Duplicates
5. Gmail will scan for the duplicate contacts and show you the list. Click on “Merge” and all your duplicate contacts will be merged into one.

NB: If the auto sync option is enabled on your phone, the duplicate contacts will be removed from your device too.

Just my 2cent!

Turn off 'Modify contacts ' permission for the apps in which it is enabled.
