To all my customers and prospective customers,

My apologies if you feel I am too brief in my response to your enquiries during transactions. The Issue is that I respond to lots of chats and customers enquiries at once and as a result I need to keep conversations for each person as brief as possible so that I can respond to everyone who has sent messages.

Also, I need to have time for other stuffs apart from responding to chats EG, processing and delivery of packages for people who have placed orders.

In view of this, I also believe customers can also be considerate. For example, there is absolutely no need for you to see an advert with price and condition clearly stated, then you chat the seller up asking for price again...
Something you had already seen in the advert before you chatted.

When a seller has stated that price is firm and none negotiable, there is no need to chat the seller up again and asking 'what is your last price'?

When a seller states that his price is non negotiable, it is simply for the buyer to determine whether he or she can buy at the sellers' price or not. If you can buy, you chat the seller up. If you think the price is too expensive don't even chat the seller.

It is not ideal to ask seller to be sending pictures of items when you know you have no intention of buying, or when you know that that item is a sealed item that can't be opened to take pictures. You can simply go online to check pictures and video reviews of whatever you want to buy.

I have had somebody chatting me up that he needs a phone then his next question was 'what can you tell me about Xiaomi?' for heavens sake, where does one begin to answer such a question from? Is it the MD, his family, number of xiaomi staff, date of origin etc that you want me to give you info about?

Bottom line is, do due research of whatever item you wish to buy before you even set out to buy that item. You can even compare prices from other sellers and whatever they are offering before you choose which seller to buy from. When you eventually choose the seller to buy from, it should be about you informing the seller what you need, state your location, delivery time frame, ask for account, make payment and expect to receive your item.

Lastly, if you have doubt about online transactions or you don't trust a seller, there's no need whatsoever to chat the seller up and asking questions about what he sells.

I have had so many people chatting me up and then later saying that they needed me to convince them because they were afraid of being scammed. My response to these people is usually ' If you are afraid of online transaction, pls don't do it. Follow your mind'. This is because, I find it absurd for someone to chat up somebody he's about to make payment to, and asking the person to convince them that he's not a scammer. Even if the seller was a scammer, would he tell you he's a scammer? Do scammers tell their victims that they are about to be scammed?

If you have doubts about a seller, a simple Google search is all you need to clear or enforce your doubts. Simply copy the person's name, phone number etc and go search on Google. You will see what people have said about the person, if he's an old seller and has built reviews over time. You can also check the sellers profile on nairaland and see what others have said about him.

For example, copy macbeyland, or 08062907289 or search on Google. You will definitely get a lot of information about me.

If on nairaland, Simply click on the sellers profile and check his mentions and his post. Within 10 minutes, you should be convinced whether to or not to trust the person with your money.


I hope with these, I will be able to assist prospective buyers and even other sellers.

Let's try and help ourselves. Abeg

Cheers.

Adjust your pre-amp in the equalizer settings. It should help.
I don't use power amp, though.
I use Player Pro which is one of my best music players. You can use it as a stand-alone player (which comes with 5-band graphic equalizer) or download and install the Player Pro DSP pack (which comes with a 10-band graphic equalizer) after installing the Player Pro itself.

Equalizer + (Equalizer plus) is also another very good player.

Both give very good sounds once you set the equalizers properly. I can post my equalizer settings if you want.
Person wey sabi, I use player pro too, it can also serve as a video player too

I've used it. The equalizer doesn't come close to that of Poweramp.


I don't know why Poweramp stopped working. Maybe I'll just wait for the next MIUI update.

If you downgrade your phone, you'll brick your device, when I say brick, it is the hard and stone cold type that will require an authorised mi account to use the edl route. Don't ever try it. Have you hard reboot your phone after the update? You should download the full rom and install manually, then hard reboot and give your phone time to adjust.

Hi guys. So I'm having a problem with updating my Redmi 8 to Android 10. Because I was yet to get the new update from my system updater, I went ahead to download the new update in a zip folder from the MIUI updates forum. But anytime I try to effect the update, I get the response in the attached image.

PS: my phone is a global version, and so is the update I downloaded.

I'll appreciate your help.

Come ooo! How can someone be looking for help and assistance, in some cases, you'll notice the confusion in the person's post, still some folks here will get the mind even without contributing shishi to help the person but will be requesting for name of font or themes.
Does it mean that you can't go online and explore for yourself to quench that thirst for your best theme.

You should sometimes verify the ROM the person is on.

Some RN7 are on Global ROM, some are on EEA(EU) ROM

Modified: Didn't see the Screenshot earlier

Keep up the good work. Make I take break small.

It is a google thing from oreo but xiaomi took their own to the extreme.
Read below from xda, it is google that implemented it but you can search online to see if you can find a way around it.

It is not a must but when others start getting MIUI 12, you won't get.

It is not a must but it is very much advisable.
