Hello, Quick Question .

Earlier I received the Android 11 update.
But due to the bad reviews I saw online regarding the update. I refused to update it.

Today I just received a notification for the MIUI 12.5 update.

The question is; can I update to MIUI 12.5 while still on Android 10?
From your screenshot it's miui 12.5 on top android 11

How does your WhatsApp notification appear in this update?
Is it scattered or grouped together like in android 10?
Not having enough data so I haven't updated seems it has been rolled back at the moment cos the notification is no longer there..

save up to buy a phone that has no single negative review
That is very very impossible to see a phone without a negative review.

Seems like you're the only one who understands the concepts behind android one. These other guys don't know sh!t but dem dey form Larry page
No need for name calling boss. We all dey learn.. but you also mentioned Google is responsible for updating android one devices. Yes in a way because Google don't directly send updates to the phones they only send to manufacturers then these manufacturers are the ones that sends the updates to the phones you get?

If Google is the one pushing the update to phones with android one, then how about other phones not using android like xioami, Samsung etc and they are getting the android software all the time for like 2 years, abi na Google they do that one too.

Every phones manufacturers have engineers that get most of these android softwares from Google, they work on it and push to their phones. Only phone companies like tecno, infinix etc that are new and have not gotten to thag level of updating android software prefer to settle for phones that doesn't have the capacity to get update because those phones are just for a short period of time. They need to make money until they get to that level where they can be producing phones that would be to stand software update.

Undertand that the android software is a business from Google that Google sell to phone manufacturers. So, it's not Google that push to any phone, it his the phone manufacturers. All Google does is to sell it to any company that want it, then its left for the company to tweak and align it to work on their device.

Una no sabi business. Na so buhari take ruin this country.
Understand say them dey talk about "Android One" project in particular, moreover android is open source(practically free) Google doesn't sell it to any phone manufacturers (hence why you have so many companies using android) On the android one part Google collaborates with phone manufacturers and those phones will receive 2 years android updates and another extra year of security updates. Infinix Hot 2 received 2 full android update back then.
Those other brands you mentioned they have their skins they don't use the stock version android Google drops they add their own features first before rolling out.

Oya lemme end it here with you are not 100% correct so as @holuwasheiWGP is not 100% correct.
See every android one devices Google is in charge of the softwares updates be it full OS updates or security patches but be that as it may Google sends the update to the manufacturers, and said manufacturers tweak a few stuffs before finally releasing it to the public..
An example is the Xiaomi Mi A3 that had an issue with Android 10 where it bricked most devices. Google has sent them the update so they tweaked a couple of things first in fact that Android 10 took about 3 tries before they got it right.
Another example Motorola.. most if not all of Moto phones are running on the Android One platform but Motorola added a few stuffs like fancy gestures, shake phone to turn on torch and other few tweaks that are not available on other android one devices..

Google is not responsible for it, your device manufacturer is.

Go online and get enlightened, Google responsibility stopped for a long time now due to some software defects.

Infact let's agree to disagree

Not brightness, Its the dark mode,have to switch off all the dark mode settings options , also do the same for all individual apps, Miui 12 bug
I know it's dark mode if you increase brightness then your screenshots becomes clear IF the following options are turned on but if they're turned off your screenshots won't have any issues again

Hello all, there are some app that don't install on my new Poco m3.

Minding, I sent it via Xender to the new phone.

Who knows the way out tongue tongue tongue
Some apps won't install cos of either DPI or Architecture, android version... some apps like musicxmatch cracked worked for my HTC then but didn't work for my mum's Tecno.. so just go to play store and download said app. Or Google and download it

I know

But I redmi note 10 doesn't display srt files at all

I use a canon 12 pro before this

Every thing I downloaded from chrome were on same folder

So when I watch a movie and want to add downloaded subtitles I can easily find them

On my redmi there do not display in my phone at all, it's almost like I did not download anything

Pic 1 - my chrome browser with proof of movie download and subtitle download.

Pic 2- this subtitle files do not reflect in phone memory!
Open any file manager and go to the download folder to see if the srt files are available and if yes you have to manually pick the subtitles I prefer Mx player and here's a screenshot of srt files..
Just tap the subtitles icon on MX Player and locate the folder you downloaded the srt files and select it.

Battery performance of Redmi Note 8 on Miui 12.5 is Amazing. It's like the performance on miui 10.

Edit: Seems Miui 12.5 is actually different from 12.0.5. I was actually referring to 12.0.5 on Note 8.
Omo that update mad gan 12.0.5 on RN8 my battery now lasts like when I first got the phone.. today I had about 80% then I started playing PUBG 4hrs41mins later I was left with 21%. Yesterday I saw a 1hr32min movie from 90% and was left with 82% afterwards..

Follow my settings and it won't matter anymore if your screen is bright or not.
My screenshots are okay the way they are I don't have any complaints and I left the second option ON on purpose and depending on the wallpaper I'm applying I also turn on the first option so those who complain of dim/poor screenshots should follow those settings..

Turns out what was affecting my screenshot quality was dark mode... unbelievable bah??

Now I have to choose between using dark mode or getting clear screenshots at least till an update comes
Oh now I understand your "poor screenshot quality" statement. What me I have noticed with dark mode and screenshots, is that your current level of brightness affects your screenshots. So the lower your screen brightness the darker your screenshots will look...
Below is an example first screenshot lower screen brightness.. and second photo a higher brightness level notice the difference??

For 4G+ apart from airtel other network(MTN and Glo)depends on Carrier aggregation. If the both bands needed aren't available on your smartphone you may not get it.

RN10 Pro there is 4G+ but in most cases the resultant download speeds I have experienced aren't much of a difference.
Yeah exactly the Note 8 doesn't support band 28 so I thought that was the reason of not getting the 4G+ but the difference in speeds was huge then.

Hello, I use a redmi note 8 but i don't get mtn 4g+ in where i stay, i only get 4g infact i've never gotten 4g+ since i started using it, whereas my room mates thats uses samsung s8+ and s9+ gets 4g+ and able to browse well with mtn...i'm considering getting redmi note 10 pro, will i get 4g+ connectivity on it? And is it that redmi note 8 doesn't support 4g+ connectivity? Or theres a way to get around it? Please i need answers to this, thank you.
Same here I used to get 4G+ on Glo and also Airtel with an old HTC 10 my course mate who used a Samsung S9+ didn't get same 4G+, but after switching to RN8 have not seen 4G+ both Glo and MTN does it bother me? Not one bit.
