I have tested Spectranet, Ntel and Swift.

Spectranet, even after assuring me that they had coverage in my area, still ended up not working. They sent a "technician" to see what the problem was and still couldn't fix it. 30k (for the mifi and unlimited sub) down the drain

Jumped to Ntel - cheap and fast - lasted for a while, till Ntel packed up.

Now with Swift and so far it has been good. Had to get the sales man on camera telling me I'll get a full refund if swift doesn't work in my area tho. This was necessary after the issue with spectranet.

Started of with Swift unlimited plan which was 19,500 and capped at 3MB but i was only getting 512kb/s even when Downloading so i switched to the 9k for 20GB plan with unlimited at nights (11pm to 8am) and Sundays (11pm on Saturday till 6pm on Sundays).

Swift is the best I've tried when it comes to affordability, latency and reliability. As for speed, it depends on your location. I get more than 3MB/s at night which is when i usually do all my downloads.

Suggestion: Why not just change the name of the thread to Itel thread ?

Where are the #TeamPotatoes ? Lets gather here.

Ok. How did you change your navigation, from your screenshot i noticed its different from mine

It's gesture control. Go to Settings >> System >> Gestures >> Swipe up on home button >> Toggle the swipe up on home button on.

The reason i picked this than the button is because it's alot more easier to switch between apps. Jist press, hold and swipe the home button and you're in another app. (Sounds easier than it looks). Swipe up from the home button to reach the apps window and back button remains the back button. You can also remove the back button so swiping from middle to left acts like back.

You can revert back anytime you want if you don't like it.

Yes its very close and aex has better ram management, 9hrs SOT is perfect for me but i noticed that the headset volume is quite low, how can i increase it?

My is okay, don't even have to turn it all the way up most times, except when playing PUBG.

plucky16:
I'm averaging 8-9hrs SOT with auto brightness. It was more like 10-11 on miui

Close enough. MIUI is pretty aggressive on apps running in the background which i guess saves battery and in turn provide more SOT. 8-9hrs isn't that bad. Although, if you were Connected to a WiFi network, it'd be slightly better.

Check mine, WiFi all through. Getting 10ish SOT shouldn't be a problem.

Please guys, am interested in opening a money market fund...... But I can't find Stanbic bank around here, so I was thinking if I should go for UBA..... Hope UBA is a good option?

You can still use stanbic even without visiting their bank. Download the app, register with your BVN and you're good to go. Although, i think there is a limit which will be lifted when you visit the bank and perform the KYC stuff.

First, Go of war are PlayStation exclusives so no, you can't play that on PC.

Secondly, 4GB RAM ? 500GB HDD ?

You need an i5 or an i7 CPU with a capable GPU to run the games you want. Make more research on PC in general to know what to get and if you're getting value for your money when you want to buy.

Can't remember.

One is a solid state disk (SSD), no moving parts, more recent, less bulky.

And way faster than HDDs. SSD are also more expensive.

More details please.

Its very bright and i didn't notice any reduction

Any improvement on the battery ?

plucky16:
Been on AEX for 15hrs now, its quite nice and bug free as in line with the testimonies i got from Grandmufti, gidieberry and Psychodavidovic. Thanks to you guys. It's quite customizable and there are lots of fonts to choose from, very nice, but i think its not so battery efficient.


Can i get some interesting mods for the this rom?

It is on my end, probably because I'm mostly Connected to a WiFi. I get an average of about 10 hours SOT on a daily. That AEX kernel is best kernel for battery life that I've tested.

Tried DarkAges and Beast Kernel (both aimed at improving GPU for gaming and slightly decreasing CPU) but i i ended up switching back to the AEX kernel cos i need my phone to be snapy.

I think the last AEX build came with genom kernel too if I'm not mistaken.

Just use it for a while, say 2 to 3 days and if you're still having the issue then we can look for a solution.

plucky16:
Any good pie rom for vince with little or no bugs

Cc grandmufti

Go for AEX. No bugs whatsoever in the latest update, been using it for almost a month now. ✔️✔️

Hello is just short for "Do you copy ?"

LucemFerre:
Recent Triple A games... you shouldn't go less than a CPU with 4 cores especially when you're using mid-highend GPUs else you'd bottleneck your gpu

However if one is getting a budget gpu then 2 cores would suffice. But, I presume you're talking about AAA games of last, say 5 years or so. In that case, a CPU with 4 cores and >= 3.0 ghz would get you through any recent game. CPUs are hyperthreaded these days so, you won't need more, at least for now.
But, if one has the money to throw around, there's nothing wrong with going higher to 6 cores... For future proof

Thank you.

LucemFerre:
Sure, if its a desktop. Despite, you're gonna need more than a CPU upgrade to make gaming-ready

What's the least cores and clock speed required for most tripple A tittles ? 4 cores ? 3.0GHz ?

I know it is mostly dependent on the graphics card but i just want to have an idea.

Some people just don't like the fact that other people like Xiaomi.

Sparklar:
Russians

Lool lots of them on CS:GO

Frame dips during fire fights and high ping.

I almost broke my phone while playing PUBG Mobile this evening.

Op, have you experienced any bugs ?

Nobody should quote me o, I'm not feeling fine.

Potato land.

DOBOEFEMENA:
@psychodavidovic are you down for the conversation?

Yeah

Akby:
I came across this quote while reading a book yesterday... Why 'A' Students Work For "C" Students - Robert Kiyosaki

Bogle points out that in mutual funds, you, as the investor, put up 100% of the money and take 100% of the risk. The mutual fund company puts up no money, takes no risk, and yet keeps 80% of the returns. The investor gets back 20% of the gains, if there are gains.

Warren Buffett Agrees
Warren Buffett is regarded as one of the greatest investors of our time. He is a capitalist. He is an entrepreneur. He is not a managerial capitalist. This is what Warren Buffett has to say about these corporate money managers, managerial capitalists, most of whom are "A" students from great schools.

He says:
"Full-time professionals in other fields, let’s say dentists, bring a lot to the layman. But in the aggregate, people get nothing for their money from professional money managers."

If this is true, it might be stated another way: Those who choose not to become financially educated or play an active role in their investments and, instead, turn their money over to professional money managers, are abdicating responsibility for their financial future.

Any comment on this?

I've read enough not to take "Quotes" from people seriously.

If the bodly is true, the only logical thing to do would be to pull out the funds and do what those managers are doing, bear 100% of the risk and keep the 100% profit to yourself right ?

The question now is, can you ?

Even if they stretch the validity to 30days, it's still expensive IMO.

Chilling with Swift till i see a better plan.

Lavoca:
My redmi 5 plus always shutdown when battery level is at 15%, could custom rom (AEX v6.1) be the culprit?

I think they fixed it in AEX 6.2, try flashing the latest update.

I used 6.1 and now on 6.2 and I don't experience that.

Ejadike:

Goosebumps.
