It can never brick via OTA

Exactly. It can't. That's why I suspect he was flashing something which went awry.

macbeyland:
.. I have a case on hand where the buyer received the package on Saturday and chatted me up on Monday saying the phone was bricked. I did a recording of the packaging of same phone showing it in working condition and sent to him. Funny enough, he had even torn the back sticker containing the imei before complaining that phone was faulty.

He said he collected the package on Saturday but didn't bother to turn on the phone until Monday.

The natural urge of any buyer of a new device will be to test the device immediately after receiving.

He didn't have the time to turn on phone, yet he had the time to tear off the back sticker containing imei.

Probably he tried installing Gcam or custom ROM which lead to this. There should be a strict warning to those who intend unlocking there bootloader and installing custom roms and Gcam, if anything goes wrong, you are on your own.

It's kinda weird that Xiaomi is appealing to mostly techies on here, the average user wouldn't even be bothered to download an extra camera app that isn't from playstore much less unlocking bootloader and flashing whatever.

Whoever started the whole GCAM craze made the Redmi phone cameras seem useless without it.

In the end people would learn from their own experience. Meanwhile news report showed that Xiaomi phones visit service centers the most a while back. This is the info they should be knowing before tweaking anything.

Backup is just precautionary.

It's the same update.

Arcbash:
Sir Grandmufti........after the update through the link u gave me... my phone is charging slow...... Taking five hours from 40% to 90%.......pls is dat normal

Bugs are normal after an MIUI update and to be expected. Have you drained your battery to Zero?

thank you sir!

Please am just wondering ooo...if u buy a product here..maybe from uncle nobody,will they bring it to your house?? :-D :-D :-D its ask I ask ooo

I have a 10000 mah oraimo power bank.
I recently noticed it doesn't charge my 4300 mah phone up to 2 and half rounds completely. I have test runned it coupled of times. It only charges it at the average of 2 rounds.. Totalling a number of 8900mah as opposed to its 10000 mah..

This is a normal thing in most power banks I ve used. I have two power banks cos am a heavy phone user.

The other new age 4400 mah power bank only charges my 4300 mah phone from 1-60 percent..

Please gurus in the house, why is that..
Knowledge is power
,

The average 10,000mAh powerbank(5V 2.1A output) cannot charge a 4300 phone from 0-100% twice.

You can read about the calculations here.

Very ridiculous, you mean he turned on the phone and it got bricked? People sef,very dishonest person.

Go to system apps and clear the cache of the updater app.

Set your region to Nigeria then reboot

Reading through this thread and I can see the redmi note series dont have fast charging and it has slow charging issues.. Is it safe to get please.. I am planning on redmi note 6 pro

macbeyland:
Good morning Great people.

As one of the sellers here, I have decided to update my terms of buyer protection in line with global standards

Pls from now henceforth, anyone who buys phones from me will be eligible for return/Refund ONLY IF THEY GET A FAULTY PHONE.
To ensure fair play on both buyer and seller, before I package your item for transit, I will record a video showing phone in working condition and send the video to you same day your package ships.

At the point of receiving package, buyer MUST record an unpacking video of package and testing of the phone, and if fault is detected, video and complaint must be sent to me same day package is received.

Pls note that I will NOT accept video or complaint made days later.

The reason for this is that I have noticed that some buyers take the decision of flashing G cam or whatsoever on their new device, and when these devices are bricked, they come back trying to claim that they got a faulty phone. This is a dishonest act and should be condemned.

Flashing of custom rom/Gcam is a personal decision and the consequences should be borne by the person who decides to.

As a seller, I don't subscribe to altering the software phones come with and I also don't give technical support in that regard. [/b]

Wrong observation, Quick charge is supported, but you need to get a quick charger if your want that. Meanwhile, the charger that comes with it is fast enough, it takes approximately 2.5 hours to charge from 0-100%.

Someone used that link yesterday and it worked.

Bootloader unlocked?

nope

veekid:

You can try the updater app again, but just make sure that network is stable.

Or unlock bootloader and do a clean install i.e fastboot
