Redmi Note 8. For those Note 9s geng 'peppering' us, we dey ground!

Danator:
Good, that's jst what I wanted to be sure I wasn't the only one who observed that.

But why note 8 come cost pass redmi 9 wey be say na only camera wey note 8 take better pass redmi 9.
That got me wondering.

Not a surprise if you have been following this thread. Same thing as Redmi Note 7 and Note 8. Note 9 'gas' bring in the dollars for Lei Jun. Moreso, Note 9 is mediatek.

Danator:
So from this, do you conclude that the redmi 9 is better than the note 8 in terms of device performance? Let's keep the camera quality aside.

Dude, you still asking? Of course G80 is superior to SD 665 but less optimized for mods. If you don't care much about custom roms, modification, hopping from one rom to another, kernels flashing, playing with your device os G80 it is.

Danator:
@genius43

Between the G80 used in the Redmi 9 and the SD665 on the note 8. Which is the better chip?

On the other hand, given the features on these devices, can you compare the redmi 9 to the note 8?
I looked online out of curiosity but can't seem to draw a conclusion.

Akonice007:
Don't say that again, I use note 8 and I av never av any complain whatsoever since I bought it in January. The phone is very much okay.

Nah. That can't be a remedy to it... I am not complaining it is closing... I am complaining that I am not usually notified for new mails

Open your mailbox, go to email settings, click on notification, select all.

Make sure auto sync is on, can easily find that icon on notification drop down. If you re on battery saver, you will have to manually refresh your mailbox to see newer messages.

You can say that again... Shine on!

Someone called out their SoC as relics, savage!

New update is out for redmi note 8. I tried hard to download the previous update but it wasn't possible. I tried to clear the cache of system app updater as I was instructed, but whenever I opened the system app updater, I never see any option on how it can be cleared. Pls, how can one clear the cache of the system app updater on redmi note 8?

Settings>Apps>Manage apps>click the three vertical dots by the top right hand>Select show all apps>scroll and look for system app updater>click clear data>select clear cache

Mark9854:
The battery isn't defective bro, the update is 100% the cause of the battery drainage. You shouldn't have updated but now that you have, my advice is that; you accept and manage the battery life as it is and always update as soon as you get notified... Since an update caused the problem, hopefully an update will fix it.

Nah not the update, the network is! The network graph has 'coat of many colors'. That sim is not what you should be using in that location of yours. Do as genius43 said.

AirVaans:
I got this Update, it was 184Mb oh

I haven't done like two updates that popped up before 11.0.8.

Dolliz:
hv click reboot but still desam or is dia anything I should click

State precisely the actions you did before getting stuck at custom recovery. @Gptech @Grandmufti @Olayinkajnr would help out. From the look of things, prepare to loose data. I have long repented from looking for what is not lost. #teamstockfornow

Dolliz:
I updated my phone just now and dis is what I got.how do I recover back pls

Click reboot as stated by the poster below your post, between you sounded perplexed (at bolded) having a custom recovery. Can't tell me you are swimming in the pool of custom recovery + rom and sounding that way. Nice recovery by the way...

AirVaans:
Ah, 2.2GB for what?, this has to be based on Android 10. Check am well

Not Android 10. Still waiting...

Fuckdem:
thanks.... Glo SIM make I don throwaway inside bush

Different strokes for different folks. Glo ever blazing in my location.

Page 7000! Whoa!! Been seeing other thousandth pages in the past, I wasn't a true Xiaomi owner even though I have felt the rom, ported to my former device. Lei Jun, we re in this together!

GrandMufti:
Reflash the rom if you have the file or reboot several times

You wrote sometimes ago, if one's present rom has no issue whatsoever and if the changelog of a pending update has no resolved related issues to one's rom, there's no need updating. I have been on 11.0.3, my battery is a monster and no issues at all. Though my security patch is still reading Nov, I'm only waiting for the 2nd update of Android 10 before I update.

Mckandre:
where's is it?

This?

uptimum123:
I am trying to download the new update on my redmi note 8 but the thing no dey gree download,e go just stay 0%,any other way to do this pls

Rocking my 11.0.3.0 with Oct security patch. No android system drainer issues. Everything smooth! I downloaded 11.0.4.0 kept in a folder to cool off. The only time I will update is the 2nd update push of Android 10.

Timothyehijie:
Hey guys I just got the redmi note 8...can any one help me with any working gcam link for it

See page 6741 for links and steps in installing Gcam for RN8.

willsonsemilore:
I swear was expecting the call recording feature, have tried different apps but none records clearly.

Default ain't bad though. Each time I see the hunger for call recording I smile andnremember airtel's ads about having trust issues.

TrebleChamp:
Yea me too when i downloaded it, sadly no call recorder for now. Something about EU regulation ish, Xiaomi did promise to bring it back before the end of the year though.

I was only curious to see if the call recorder feature would be present. I know about the EU regulations. I have never used a call recorder before I rather cherish screen recorder to the latter, I'm used to dialer not recording. Rocking the Google dialer.

Gptech:
And note 4 get am .

Gptech, you feeling fly now? Lol. Lemme burst your bubbles small. Note 8 has it after all.

PS:
Double tap to wake only works with default theme and the device has to be in locked state before it wakes or sleeps.

TrebleChamp:
Reboot you device and it will start working well, mine also crashing when i first downloaded it until i reboot my device. Try it and see

It worked after reboot. I thought the call recording feature would be present since it's Mi dialer. Thanks all the same.

jboixxx:
Mi Dialer for RN8

↑↑↑ Link to the Mi dialer for whoever needs the dialer. Mi message doesn't work yet, though it's a diff app. Will try from other Redmi models and see if I'd be lucky.

It will be added to the compilation.

Still crashes Bro #RN8

Buzx:
Can I have the links to this your version of gcam, please?

See page 6741 for instruction on how to go about it. I might be banned for posting links.

IdeeEsperanza:
Then it's the same version

Let's see a few sample shots.

IdeeEsperanza:
Then it's the same version

Yes

Eberejesus111:
I stay around ikeja area, please who has games. Good games that are offline. I use Xiaomi

THE reality is, most good games are now online. You can try apkdlmod . com (remove space) for modded games and play store for original version.

olanreyman:
I don't seems to like the selfie of this gcam version

Well I have tested selfies but not as much as shots of the back camera. The two I took ain't bad at all. I'm not the selfie type.

IdeeEsperanza:
Please check your GCam app info. I want to confirm if I'm using the same version. This is my GCam info

Here is mine.

Modified.
