Shey this is okay..?

Why do you want autobrightness off?

If you want to save some battery juice then you can leave it near the minimum brightness with the caveat that you may not be able to see your phone clearly, especially if you have to use it in sunlight. It gets quite annoying cos you have to manually turn it up, often at times when you quickly need to do something.

If you use it outdoors a lot, just keep autobrightness on.

that guy sef. Which one is 10% per 4hrs. Na 20hrs use he wan squeeze out of the phone ni. I use the same 8A and nothing has changed since I bought it

Normal working time of 8A is about 12 - 14hrs

Does it have same working time as Redmi 8??
What's the current price ?

Please.. I just bought redmi note 8 pro, trying to update My settings of Nova luncher prime, but after the activation I can't see all My apps..

Any idea of a solution
Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by abdsamad(m): 9:08am On Jul 24, 2020
If you're a minimalist who is in need of a simple clutter-free homescreen, you will probably like this launcher:

The name is "AIO Launcher" and it is a gem. I have mine set-up as you see in the picture (minus the font of course) ; you can customize it to your taste.

What you get will pretty much be a single scrollable page. That's all

Sometimes I hardly see the contents on the screen especially when I'm playing games like dream league.

It's okay on websites and WhatsApp but I couldn't bear it on games so I turned it off.

You have been downloading the wrong one. I have shared the link here severally look for it. And when you install it you have to go and enable the drawer from the settings. It doesn't show by default.
I have downloaded it numerous times before and still same thing.

You are not on the MIUI Alpha launcher that is why.

You can download an app that allows you to set the brightness for different apps. You maintain autobrightness for most apps and still get the brightness going up or down in specific apps.
I'll see if i can find the name for you

Go to your home screen settings and do the rest. It doesn't bring drawer by default but gives you an option to choose an app drawer. So the rest is on you.

No offense but this looks even more clustered than iOS or MiUI homescreens.

This is stock MiUI launcher + Pixel theme (☞ ಠ_ಠ)☞

Xiaomi have not released any phone in the past 3 years(which can even be more) without 4G, this is not supposed to be a question

I know how it looks because... Eyes.

Yet I was pleasantly surprised.

I realised that I don't need an empty page to stare into, a single functional page is works better for me.

Being minimalist doesn't necessarily mean you love empty pages

It's not for everyone but I'm sure one or two people here will absolutely love it

What really happened? Did it just stop detecting d sim?

Dial *#06# to check if it still have IMEI

Is the sim tray well placed and key in well?

Let's start from here

The sim isn't closing well enough.. Cos I noticed that from the second redmi 7(they are two) ... I swapped trays. It's working perfectly now.. Didn't bother about the other one cos it's meant for WiFi only. Thank you GrandMufti and igemburg. I appreciate!

Minimalist is not about empty pages, it's about simplicity and only the essentials. Nothing over the top just what you need.

S10+ btw.

But... But you just defined the picture I sent.

It is simple and contains only essential stuff in an organised format.

Let's not fight about this

If you have interest in checking out the app, please do so. If not, i like your current homescreen too
