I didn't see it...

Okay..
If it was there that would have meant Qualcomm's noise reduction technology (Fluence) was active.
I'd have told you to disable it from a developer ROM.

When you record calls... do you hear what you say?

toludadon:
Can I go to collect my Xiaomi Note 4 prime now?

It's on the way to the nearest post office from Ikeja.

It's possible it's there but it hasn't been updated.
You can try.

When it shows "receive item at office of exchange" or "unsuccessful delivery attempt" then you most definitely know it's there.

Razael23:
Bros I updated it and yet it still persists.. I wonder word happening.. and also I notice I was able to record calls and fm radio are they using a different method of recording?

Yeah, newer phones have more than one mic.
The secondary is mainly for noise cancellation.
It's possible your phone is mistaking your voice for background noise and is blocking it.

Install ES File Explorer, navigate to your build.prop: /system/build.prop and see if this line is there:

 persist.audio.fluence.voicecall=true

Okay, tell me some features so I can check mine..

1. Grouped notifications: messages from a particular app are stacked together.
https://www.thurrott.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/7-bundle.jpg

2. Direct Reply.
You can reply messages directly from the notification drawer without having to open the app.

3. Multi Window/ Split Screen.
Samsung has always had this but now all OEMs have access to this in Nougat, don't know if Xiaomi implemented it in MIUI.
From your recents screen, you'll drag an app card to the status bar then the screen is split between that app and the previous app.
I doubt it's in MIUI considering the fact that recents apps are not in cards.

There are other under-the-hood changes.
If I remember more I'll add.

Memphisbleek:
Were you charged any extra fee like customs duty and stuff?

That's not my device, but, no.
You're usually not charged any other fee apart from a "handling fee" of ₦500 for packages above 500g.
The sellers write a lower price on the goods so you don't have to pay customs duty even when you ship via DHL .


PS have you been able to order for the Oneplus 3?

SALE BEGINS!
To end in 3 days.

blessedvisky:
Hmm. But is it a good idea? Rooting and the rest.

Depends on you.

My devices uses snapdragon not MTK.

Snapdragon makes it easier for custom ROMs.

What of bricking

You'll just have to be careful. If you brick then use Odin to flash your phone to stock.

blessedvisky:
Thanks Bro. I read somewhere online that it can support android 5.1, although official updates stopped at 4.4.2

Do you think it's a good idea to try and get 5.1 on it?

You'll have to use custom ROMs for that.
That involves rooting your device and flashing a custom recovery.
You can get up to Nougat (7.1.1) with custom ROMS.

blessedvisky:
how do I flash it please

Follow this guide:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/ambassador-guides-tips-how-s/499009-guide-samsung-how-flash-stock-rom-via-odin-new-interface.html

Get stock ROM of the same device and Android version from Sammobile or XDA

I just downloaded the App.. (Maybe I downloaded the wrong one) it has over 3million downloads but the app doesn't look like the one I downloaded last month. I can't even figure out where to register. Just full of adverts. Pls guide me

Press the menu button.
Select My Account.
You'll see the option to register.
You can register with your FB account, or email.

shakol91:
thanks 4 ur reply. But this $100 coupon is the problem that I have. The $10 deduction na something o.

This is anniversary period.
AliExpress is giving $100 million in coupons.

Check the app for various ways to get coupons.

blessedvisky:
Good evening house. I recently acquired a Samsung galaxy note 2. However it was writing Camera failed.
I changed the camera with 4K and the back camera is now working but when I switch to front, it writes camera failed again. The engineer suggested that we should reload the whole OS if the phone but that I'll lose all my data and it will cost extra 1k


Pls what other possible solutions exist?

Camera failed / cant connect to camera usually happens when another app is using the camera.
If you have a PC you can back up your device to it and flash it yourself.

Odunharry:
Thanks. How abt redmi note 4 or so.
Thinking of xiaomi phone with good battery life, 2gig ram n 32gig rom atleast

All recent Xiaomi phones from the Redmi 4A upwards have at least 2GB RAM.
Apart from the Redmi 4A the rest have at least 32GB RAM.

You can check GSM arena for specs or the AliExpress app for various prices of the different phones you can get.

Or you can post the specs important to you with your budget.

shakol91:
the reason why I'm going for the new Account is because my last order was done with 3 different cards and non was mine and I was able to scale through appeal. But now,I planned to use the card that has same name with my Aliexpress account name. I have the feelings that it might enter appeal because my card will be the 4th card I using btw feb-mar. This account was registered in 2013 and I've done appeal with my UBA Africa card then,not really sure if I've been rated. In summary I'm avoiding appeal because gtb is not operating here presently. Pls your advice

If you've used different cards without being asked to appeal then you may not have to appeal upon using subsequent cards.

You can stick with your old account if you can use cards without having to appeal.

Odunharry:
Guy how much be this your machine

That's the Mi 5. ₦70,000 - 75,000 on AliExpress.

Dam5reey:
Updated..

How's MIUI on Nougat?
Are Nougat features (eg Split View, etc) present?

shakol91:
I have an old account but I'm registering a new account on the basis of getting coupon. Do you know if xiamo store is partaking in the coupon stuff too

(Almost) All stores are partaking.
Just click the coupon icon.

Be careful with new accounts... appeal wahala.

shakol91:
Thanks for your wonderful explanation (I used alipocket before just asking if payment can be done directly now).

Payments can be made directly if the order is less than $100; the $100 per card limit hasn't been lifted as far as I know.

Pls can you answer my question on getting the $100 coupon. Last month the banner was $100 coupon when I checked today,I saw $200 coupon banner. I'm only buying something worth of $170

The coupon is for new users.
AliExpress is having anniversary sales as from tomorrow, and you can get coupons from different stores.

Secondly pls is there a way we can activate GTb master card for online transaction without going to bank.. Gtb bank in my area has been sealed.

For security purposes, you'll have to visit the bank physically with a valid ID card to enable internet banking.

shakol91:
Pls,do you guys still do funding by paying into alipocket or can we use our Master card directly now... Second question,pls I've downloaded new aliexpress app,I can't find $100 coupon there,what was on display was $200 and I read it that the promo will end on 30th of march(I don't really understand). Pls I need explanation on funding and how to get $100 coupon because I'm only buying redmi note 3 SE......... @ , pls can you send me the link to the store you bought the note 4 and the total cost in Naira. Thanks

I tried the mic test, it didn't work I'm on version 8.0.3.0

Update to latest version and retry.

Razael23:
Headphone with mic is working well.
Wen i try recording with the recorder it will make an attempt to record i.e the wave graph will rise and den it will stop, if I play the record I will hear the initial stage briefly and datz the end the rest is deaf silent..

Did you try the mic test?
Are you on the latest version?

Razael23:
rookidmart abeg help for this matter abeg

What do you mean by microphone isn't working?
People can't hear you when you make a call?

Eliminate the possibility that it's a software issue:
-Reboot
- Update to the latest version
-Do the mic test: Setting --> About phone --> Kernel version --> tap 4 times and start the mic test
-Factory Reset
- Force your device to portrait mode(take a picture or record a video) so it uses the main mic
-Use a headphone with a mic
-Turn off On Google detection
-Try to clean the mic (it's the small hole beneath the phone) with a pin

If all these don't work then it's most likely a hardware issue.
The mic chip might be detachable so you'll need to solder it.

Between this Ur moded whatsapp and jimtech own, which is better?

YOWA is the best.

sidwell:
I registered on aliexppress since 2013 and I want to make my first purchase of xiaomi redmi note 4 next week.I want to use someone else gtb card first to fund my alipocket then use my own gtb card for the balance. Hope this will not be problem as per falling into apeal.

You can try.
You most likely won't have to appeal, but be prepared, just in case.

Mckandre:
Good news guys, I just funded my alipocket without an appeal

Try to fund it again.
See if you can get up to $100

timidapsin:
let him give them their best food (boiled Rat)

My cats don't eat rat.

They don't eat anything they catch.
Always want to steal my meat/fish instead.

vower:
When I tried purchasing alipocket

Try smaller amounts, if it still doesn't work, select pay with another card and input the same card details.

Log in from a PC and appeal.

ennyhola:
