Update.

The second ear also later stopped working. After leaving it for days. I just removed it to even check again this morning only for the two ears to be working again. Thinking of selling off even if it is 5k. It is still neat and has no scratch atall.

I dunno about airdots but the solution is usually not hard to find. There'll be a forum where someone has complained and gotten an answer, in most situations

I don't think they're trying to make you buy a new one. They've told you the extent of the damage and the cost of repair. Get a second opinion if you want but hope you don't end up falling into the hands of someone who will make big promises they can't keep.

It's better to get a new device if the cost of repair is more than 30k. I think 20k sef is a lot, considering the cost of the device itself.

Jboixx.x has the same device, brand new for 70k. My advice would be to get a new device and scrap the present one for parts.

It is FAT32 use file manager

Kennyflyair:


Try to install FULL VERSION Microsoft exFAT/NTFS by paragon software.

Ensure you install full version. Search google for it. Free version on playstore can't be used without watching video ads

Next install total commander file manager.

After installing both, insert your external drive/flash into your phone, launch the Paragon software and then click on MOUNT.

The rest is pretty easy. If you have trouble using the software, check google by typing both software names, article will come up showing how to use them.

The good thing i've noticed about this method is that you only have to do it once. After you've accessed your files on the flash, you can uninstall the apps and your normal file manager would be able to detect it without problems

Buzx:


Try to click on the root folder in xplore. Go to mnt/external_storage( or sdcard. I don't know what it's called. I've never used an external storage on mine). Probably if you can locate the mnt/(external_storage), you might be able to open it from there.

I've finally be able to access any USB drive on my RN8. Microsoft exFAT/NTFS by paragon software would crash when trying to read a file on total commander or any other file manager, hence I use USB-stick plugin for total commander, and it's working flawlessly. My gratitude to y'all for your time

Hi!

Afternoon, abeg.

I use R8

I had issues on stick rom, so I flashed Xiaomi.eu today. Since I flashed it, my phone no gree charge again.

I'm puzzled, because I have never heard rom changing affects charging. Doesn't make sense to me. But that's what happened.

NEPA brought light at past 4am, while I was backing up getting ready to flash. I plugged the phone, at 24%, and by the time the flashing was done, I had 20%. I didn't bother, really. But I finished restoring and everything, I dropped the phone around past 6, to charge. It wasn't charging, I kept changing the charger(i have 2 charger heads) every 10 mins because it was stuck, by 6:30 or so, it picked up and was charging.

Between 7 & 7:30, my phone charged 16%, and at 7:30, I went to sleep at 42%, believing it was done. I woke up past 10 to meet my phone at 55%.

I shock, I no understand. And the phone was off all the while. It didn't charge till now. It's giving me 0 or 1% in 10 mins, and that's very very frustrating.

I've tried 3 charger heads, and it's the same. I don't believe it's the rom either, cos I've flashed custom kernel on it.

I'm as puzzled, I'm thinking it's my cord or something, but shey charger dey spoil like that? I mean, it charged from 6:30 - 7:30, and without disconnecting or high voltage, it died?

Thanks

Fact is that i took my RN8 to Raya service centre and was told to pay 62k that the screen and panel are bad,the que now is ,is it advisable to pay that amount or just add it 13k and buy a new one for 75k or look for a good phone engineer in abuja that can fix the phone's screen and panel for less than that 62k?
Sell it in parts. It's unreasonable to repair a phone of 80k with 62k. If you have that 62k, add to it and come for new RN8 4 x128GB by weekend. I'm close to you.
