couldn't find a way of forcing sim 1 to 2g
Follow the process highlighted by genius43 but be informed that it'll reset to default after a reboot/exit from airplane mode.

How can I get the 7gb....explain pls

.Get yourself a new SIM or if you haven't enjoyed the offer on your active SIM (assuming you're using Airtel) and send GET to 141. You should receive a congratulatory message if the slot is eligible. Then you can subscribe (from N500 above). Send only once, else, you'll be disqualified immediately.

Rather than buying another SIM after 3 months, you can just swap to second SIM slot and repeat the command. If you have a modem, mifi that support SMS features, you can get the offer on them too. In short, 1 SIM can benefit X times.

I'm sure all those old Tecno 'smartphones' can get you the offer sef

[quote author=atheistandproud post=79300509]Random comment tho.

I believe Smartphones will get better innovations as time goes by. I purchased a Miracast Dongle from AliExpress as well as a HDMI to AV converter plus USB type C OTG.

My Startimes decoder dey inactive as I watch on the TV anyway free without sub. DVD unkor, na dust new house be that. My phone is my decoder/dvd player. I stream games to the TV too. Like legit plug in the controller and play using the TV instead of the phone, the only drawback is the latency but once you get the timing right, your good to go.

OTG helps me type directly using a keyboard and print directly via USB. I did it at a cafe recently using their keyboard and printer and they were hailing me like one guru when really it is nothing.

I struggle to wonder why people under utilize their smartphones.

I'd like to hear your views.

I should make this an independent post tho.[/quotepiy

I am not looking at the mi 9 at all. The competition has gone way past it and it's an old device now.

Band 20 isn't much of a priority tho because I could still get 4G coverage even with my infinix hot 4pro.

But would you recommend a Chinese rom?
What should I be expecting. Any hope of porting to global rom someday?

I just wished my phone hasn't spoiled, I would uave waited longer to see the game going on in the phone industry well.

I would rather get S10 than OnePlus 7 seems too overpriced


I laughed at your competition has gone way pass mi 9 statement, well it's all down to choices and all that. grin

I can't say for sure if the k20 pro would have a global ROM one day but would I recommend a Chinese rom? Well I could say yes and No cos you might end up loving it or otherwise so I can't make that decision for you.

Was actually referring to the standard OnePlus 7 and not the pro which looks like a better value for money below $500.

u even had time to start plugging otg HDMI to AV cable when u can easily chrome cast/ screen mirror cheesy

The world and technology is evolving.. although u have to be financially stable to flow along with the trends.. I try as much as possible to stay afloat of technology no matter the cost..I make sure all I use are modern and quality as I can afford.

In my school...wrote 80% of my theoretical tests and exams with my phone with the help of Google cheesy..many underestimates the power of internet and technology.

I change my Airtel SIM every 3 months because there is this 100% data bonus they give their new customers on every sub ranging from 500 for 3 months..

I do get 30+gig for as low as 4k and the 4g in my area is second to none..many are ignorant of this anyway still subbing normal sub of 1.5 gig for 1k when u can get 7 gig + for same 1k..

I rarely sub my DStv..why will I sub 6k min-14k max for a month when I can get upto 100+ gig for same amount and stream to high heavens whilst chromecasting to my smart TV (I can choose when and how I watch).

Am not the kind to be left behind in this technology era..

They give 500 mb on every recharge ranging from 5h above..they give 1.024gb + 1.024 GB night bonus and most importantly,they give out 100% data bonus in every subscription from 5h above..

+ Another 4g welcome bonus they give

Depends on the device, devices starting from rn7 will revert back to default, older devices will revert back only once and wen u reapply, it will stay.
Unless ur ok with default themes then u can use that font, otherwise change ur region to India, and make ur way to theme store, ull find more options for fonts der

As for the 2G use *#*#4636#*#* but you can still do it under SIM cards by selecting the unused SIM preferred network type and select 2G only.

See SS for WiFi scanning
Done..

Thank you so much. I don't like the themes in theme store even when I change to India. I guess I have to choose between beautiful fonts or beautiful wallpapers.

Yes, I'm on China rom. I have enabled all the permissions and yet, it's not working. However, after a long try I have been able to use normal WhatsApp but the WhatsApp business is still not working and that's the reason I bought the phone.

I loaded the the 4k from my bank account

Normal *141# sub..ur 4g SIM must be a new sim and ur phone must be a modern smartphone that supports the bonus..it seems not all phones supports it..

For clarity purposes,u mīght want to tweet Airtel ur new line to confirm it eligibility as I always do when I buys a new sim

Sellers on Alixpress are selling the "global" rom which is the Indian ROM. That's how global it can get which it isn't bad at all.

Did you check other shipping methods?

Because if you did most sellers offer more than one method of Shipping. The cheapest is what you usually see by default. You are to check choose and apply whichever suits you. My last 2 orders CRA got to Nigeria in 11days, AES came in 12 days
sup bro, pls, which one is AES. Can u screenshot. Have u used YEA n 4PX before, like how reliable they r. which shipping option is best amongst diz in d pix for less. CRA have proven to b reliable, but bit pricey sometimes in relative to d rest.

Sorry sir I want to get the Redmi note 7...Please since u have the phone, what are its flaws??and would u advice I get this device over Samsung a20
flaws for now after the update is the battery but subsequent update might fix it again
The front camera not too clear but with GCAM its superb
Every other thing works flawlessly even gaming on it it's cool I played 2GB game on it and it's buttery smooth
So if am to choose between it and A20 I'll definitely go for note 7 without a second thought

AES is AliExpress Standard shipping (They normally use Singapore post for that) it and CRA are very reliable. And I use both of them the most

Personally I tend to avoid Yanwen, 4px, Sunyen, infact every untrackable method of shipping.

Small packet plus like YEA, 4PX, Sunyen is most atimes free and untrackable.

Shipping method depends on you, if you feel the extra money on trackable shipping is not worth it stick to your guts and use small packet plus and hopes it gets to you in good. Afterall the worst that can happen is to open a dispute if after the stipulated time the parcel do not arrive.
