An understandable decision given the circumstance. Sadly, a heartbreak for a few outstanding players worthy of Ballon d’Or this season, and perhaps a sigh of relief from the two GOATs. Realistically none even came close.. The battle resumes 2021, hopefully. COVID-19 practically sucked life out of 2020... It'll be impossible to forget the ordeals of this year.

Hushpuppi's cousin sister.

Abia State Governor, Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu has tested negative for coronavirus. (COVID-19).
It will be recalled that the governor who tested positive for the virus penultimate week has been in self isolation where he has equally been receiving treatment.

However, a repeat test of the virus on his samples carried out by the officials of the National Centre for Disease Control, NCDC Friday night has returned negative.

A brief statement by the State Commissioner for Information, John Okiyi Kalu on Saturday morning stated that by the new development, the governor is now free of the virus.

The statement read thus: “To God the glory of God, repeat COVID-19 test conducted by Nigeria Center for Disease Control (NCDC) on samples submitted by Governor Okezie Ikpeazu on Thursday, 2nd July, 2020, returned negative result on Friday, 3rd July, 2020.

“Governor Ikpeazu is therefore deemed free of the virus according to the extant guidelines of NCDC and the World Health Organization (WHO). Thank you.”

I knew it was definitely going to be an Igbo person. I don't understand why these people lack respect for their elders most especially their parents.

For fvck's sake, can you just address the real issue at hand.. Tribal bigotry will take you nowhere!

I am currently using a Celbro charger for about a year now. My OEM Charger is still there though my cousin uses it these days

Thanks bro. Can you share the Ali link

Hi guys,
My charger just got burnt this morning. Pls can someone recommend Original Xiaomi charger for RN5. Thanks ya all

micxwell:
I've opened mine. Everything I bought 3weeks after, all shipped by Small Packet Plus has arrived and Aliexpress Standard Shipping is doing nonsense. .

It looks like I must wait it out to the end. Just a couple of hours remaining. Did you wait for yours to completely run out?

micxwell:
Good day bro. Did you eventually receive the order?

Lol. Still nothing bro .. Dispute to be opened on Wednesday (27th).
Can't wait.

Poshguy2:
Make me sef join the anniversary train. I bought my RN5 from macbeyland last year. Can't remember the month though, either October or November sha. The phone still serves me well, but my battery drain almost 15% overnight. I suspect the new fast charger I am using cos this started last month or d month b4. I am back to d stock charger but d battery still drain the same way now. I will probably upgrade to N9 or N10.

Hmm. The highest my battery has ever gone down overnight is 2%, and it happens occasionally.

olayinkajnr:
Trust me, you won't.

I got both Poweramp and Blackplayer EX.

Poweramp is installed and Blackplayer just dey there.

The only thing Blackplayer got over Poweramp is beauty. That's all.

All those things he show in his screenshot, Poweramp got it and more. All!!!

Couldn't have said it any better myself. BlackPlayer has one of the best UI design and interface you'll ever find on android, but music isn't about aesthetics - it's about sound output, and that's precisely where PowerAmp thrives.
I can't believe people are still bringing this up, TBH. The music player issue was done and dusted threads back.

Today makes it a year since i got my redmi note 5. I bless those who recommended it to me daily. This past year, I have never had cause to replace any part or experienced any issue with it. The battery is still strong (7 hours SOT at least, on a good day I get 8 hrs 30 mins). For a phone I got so cheap compared to others I have used, I am still in love with it that I don't even think of getting a new one. Xiaomi RN5 has been my best device yet! No jokes...

Couldn't agree more. My own 1 year anniversary will be due in less than 3 months. RN5pro is a real machine in any sense possible. Will not be looking at any other device at least for the next 2 or 3 years. Now before you start thinking "it's not possible" or "we'll see about that when a better phone at a cheap price comes up", I used my Galaxy s4 for 4 years and 3 months before I sold it. Yes, you read that correctly. What's the point of getting a new device when the one you've serves you PERFECTLY?
Happy anniversary @queenfav.

2kurupt:
Very concise review.

I noticed you're on Xiaomi.eu rom on RN5, please what items did you wipe before flashing the rom?

Alright. Is your bootloader unlocked? Do you have a custom recovery installed? If yes is your answer to both questions, then all you have to do is go into your custom recovery (could be twrp, orange fox etc) and then select wipe from the menu and swipe right to confirm. The wipe won't tamper with any file in your internal or external storage... It's just gonna wipe user data, that's all. After that, you can install the rom. I can share rom link with you in case you get confused as to the exact one to download..

Shegun010:
Thanks. Would you say the battery backup is better on the EU ROM as compared to the regular Miui??

Yes! Just don't flash beta EU roms, wait for stable builds. I've always been on stable builds and I get more than 10hrs SOT

Shegun010:
Alright then, then one main feature I'm looking out for that I need to confirm first, which is "a feature that requires password or pin before the phone is turned off"
Is that feature available in the EU ROM?
And does the EU ROM support the normal Miui gestures to?

No, it doesn't have that feature, but it has something that does similar job. Just go to Settings - Lockscreen and toggle that switch off and you're good to go.
For gestures - Yes, EU roms fully supports Miui gestures.

Helloooo RN5 pro EU fans, stable Miui 11 just dropped. I'll be updating tonight. I'm giving Pie another try just because of Miui 11. Anything funny, I port back to Oreo. Pie display colour is awful in my opinion, not to mention the inability to use Wi-Fi & Hotspot simultaneously.
Tonight it is! I'll review after 2 days of use.

Alright. It's been over 2 days since I got myself immersed in Miui 11, and like I promised, I'm gonna do a review. That way, fam members who are still on Miui 10 or lower versions will get to know what they're missing or not missing.

For a start, Miui 11 is packed with some fresh and eye-catching features. Honestly it still beats me why some persons here opined that Miui 10 and Miui 11 are more or less same. I don't get it. Pls allow me to guide you through the new additions on Miui 11:

UI Design.
Perhaps, the most noticeable change on Miui 11 is the new material UI design. Although icons/UI look minimalistic, it's very bold, colorful, crisp and stylish. That of Miui 10 ain't bad to be fair, but it lacks the crispness of Miui 11. Miui 11 made major changes in the general looks of Rom's UI starting from the boot logo.

Effects.
Another new stuff is the transition effects - to be fair, it's quite pleasing to the eye and makes the whole Miui experience elegant and enjoyable. You notice these effects while opening/closing apps, navigating through settings and toggling the drop-down menu switches. Very sweet.

Screen time.
Miui 11 is equipped with a very special feature called "screen time". Now, if you're on android 10, then there's a big chance you already know about this. "Screen time" is very similar to Google's "Digital Wellbeing" feature (I personally think Xiaomi copied this from Google). This new feature basically tracks your activities, giving you an alarmingly detailed info on how much time you spend on your phone (daily, weekly, monthly), the time is further narrowed to apps, giving you precisely how much time you spend on each app. It even lets you set daily screen time limits for apps, individually. That way, you can control your addiction to certain apps and focus on more relevant things. I think this's a fantastic feature. It's one of my favorites.

Font.
Miui 11 also has a new font feature called "font weighting". It essentially helps you to adjust the boldness of your font without changing the individual font. Also, a new font (MilanPro) was introduced, and it's actually a nice font. Although it has a striking resemblance with Google's font, "Google Product Sans" - makes me wonder if Xiaomi got their inspiration from there..

Game Turbo. Quick Replies.
Good news for gamers. With major improvements, the Game Turbo feature is also available on Miui 11 under Settings - > special features. It optimizes the phone's RAM & GPU and readies it for any game, ensuring optimal game performance. There is also a new feature called "quick replies" which helps you to conveniently send instant replies on supported apps.

Status Bar.
Status bar icons such as network bars appear to have been reduced in size on Miui 11. Network Type symbols such as H+ or 4g now sits on top of the the network bars rather than the sides as the case was on Miui 10. Also, the 4g symbol disappears when you turn off the data (creating space for more icons) and reappears when data is turned on. This wasn't the case with Miui 10.

Battery.
The battery performance on Miui 11, in my opinion, is better than that of Miui 10. No lies - I was able to squeeze out a couple more minutes (somewhat 40 - 55 mins). I use RN5 pro - so it's very possible that the performance may vary across other models. Thus, my assessment is not definite.

To spare you some time reading this annoyingly long post, there're some other noteworthy additions to Miui 11 which I'm not gonna explain further. They include:

* Improved Calculator (calculator now supports picture-in-picture feature)
* Drop-down menu toggle button for Dark mode.
* New dynamic sound effects.
* Blur app preview (lets you blur apps on the "recent" menu)
* MiShare (Similar to Apple's Airdrop. For sharing apps/files seamlessly)
* Improved file manager (I still prefer the file manager on Miui 10 tho)
* Ambient Display (Doesn't work as I use RN5 pro)

Not sure if I'm missing anything, but these are some changes I was able to spot. The display colour I complained about on Pie is still there, but there is a slight improvement. TBH, with all the features on Miui 11, I'm not sure I'll be moving back to 10. It's just too much to ignore.
The guys complaining about Miui 11, especially the ones planning do downgrade, I wonder if they're aware of all these features or simply chose to ignore them. Miui 11 is a masterpiece and it should be forward ever, backward never. It can only get better.
Huge thanks to Xiaomi & to whoever came up with the idea of opening this thread. I bless the day left Sammy for Xiaomi.

micxwell:
Funny how it is the same time as well as day. Both should land together hopefully and if it's the other way round, I'm on to Redmi Note 8

Lol. I honestly don't want mine to land... I'm not interested anymore. Just waiting out the time for a refund.

Yay! I'm going to have another amazfit buddy
Don't you dare chicken out on me! Don't you dare!

Yeah, buddy! Can I DM my account number?

micxwell:
Baba, 30days processing time like how? Please explain.
I ordered a Redmi Note 7 on the 28th of September, it started writing despatched to overseas on the 4th of October and till now I've not seen any update. I even thought NIPOST tracking was down but alas, its fully functional.

Lol. We're in the same ship bro. Mine is Mi Band 4. I already gave up hope few weeks ago. Besides, I don't even want the band anymore. 24 more days till I open dispute and get my refund. Will be going for a full smartwatch when I get my cash back, or maybe a decent digital watch. Mi band is just a fitness band - I may have been swayed by the insane popularity and great battery TBH, but what I actually want is something classy, smart & watch-like - not a band.

Breathe of fresh air

Looking crisp. Not on EU yet. My fingers are twitching...Can't wait.

eby001:
My umidigi uwatch2 finally here, this choice exp is damn good. Better adult look than miband4. Better strap with an additional rubber strap if you don't like the chain type.

I agree. But MiBand 4 is a fitness band - not a smartwatch. We mustn't forget.

Mfunkynation:
it not yet in Nipost tracking system...

It should be. It has been almost three weeks since the item was despatched. Nig-bound items reflects on Nipost web track minutes after getting despatched.

Johnsonkelvin:
Men them, can I request for refund now..as delivery time go soon end??
Since sept 2nd

You'll have to wait it out. SingPost, right? Shipping has been extremely unreliable lately. Ordered Mi Band 4 from HK Goldway...Stuck on "Despatched to Overseas" since 4th of October. First time experiencing this kind of delay. I've always been lucky with fast shipping. My timing has always been perfect... but not this time, I guess.
I can't even track the item on Nipost web, getting "No Information, pls check your item identifier." Also first time experiencing this. I can track it on any site (17track, GlobalCiano, 24track etc) apart from Nipost. Maybe AE old-timers in the house can explain..

i was thinking mi band was like samsung watch and so i asked fr the difference n e told me....

God. You take jokes that serious? I'm appalled by your choice of words, TBH. My comments were made on the lightest mood possible, but it's unfortunate you took it that serious. I'm very sorry. Just took note of your handle.. I'll be very careful next time
