I wonder o. The update should be as large as 1.7Gb and when you are using a phone for the first time it requires alot of patience. People just start panicking for no reasons. Am sure he got to a percentage and it stopped moving and he taught something was wrong not knowing it is still going and the next movement of the progress bar might be to 97-99%.

same thing almost happened to me when i was updating my RN5 recently (Oreo to pie )which was around 1.6gb ,it took do long than usual to instal even longer that when i did similar update (miui 9 to 10)but because i use to see don't turn off while downloading even in other gadgets then i kept my calm and it all went well .always exercise patients

priceaction:
Na wa ooo. It's like you wanted to sleep and you ate belle full only to wake up feeling hungry and start saying but slept belle full last night na? So you don't know phones are running on energy which is your battery? You should be happy that's it's not mtk kind of phone that 25% of the battery would have gone overnight.

i worry for some people oo,just 1% and he is complaining

genius43:
What is your definition of portrait mode, because even my Redmi Note 5 supports portrait mode.

some people thinks that portrait more is some kind high feature

anonymousey:
Available. WhatsApp 08057407671

bazkid24:
Same here, bro. I was feeling kinda unique on getting the Mi 9t soon as its not yet that common. Only for me to be seeing people ordering the phone anyhow

so you want only you to be using the phone abi? Lol

Cynsee:
have done that sir,but I'm still seeing 3g here ,even my mtn line is browsing on 4G

maybe it has not been activated,it happens sometimes with even my newly bought airtel,but when i re-registered it,it started working well

fibonacci2526:
Mini review of the redmi airdots and the mi band 4 coming soon. My Mi band 3 available at a give away price, PM me.

will love the review because am kind of confused on which one to buy based on durability and sound quality (bass and treble)

saint2ace:
We appreciate ur efforts oh jare, at least we know have better understanding and can run a comparative analysis with other products, the Mi A3 ticks a lot of boxes for me and am seriously considering it, Stock Android and Band 28 especially. Call me old skool but am not in tune with the inscreen fingerprint scanner and then that screen resolution ahhhhh

the main turn off i had with A3 is the screen resolution

olayinkajnr:
I swear, you are right. Very very right.

Although, the chipset is better than the one on A20. But everything wrong with A20 is what is also wrong with the Mi A3.

Shitty Amoled display on a 720p screen.

If I'm to go with performance and aesthetics, I'll go with the A3 though. But if I'm to go with value for money, I'll pick the A20.

In fact, right now, I'll pick the A20.

WTF! Who is comparing a20 to a3,thats treason

genius43:
They will. They have said the Note 10series would be the last set with 12/16Mp cameras.

Afterall the A80 came with a 48Mp sensor.

what am saying is that charity begins at home,they should have tested all those MPs with their phones before others,is as smoke as they know MP doesn't equate to better picture quality

2kurupt:
So who else has tried Dark Mode after the last update on RN5? All system & Google apps now switch automatically like it's originally designed to, must say am impressed.

Other app Devs need to bring their apps up to speed

but mine drains more battery than usual

Umunri:
Bought Xiaomi mi 9t from slot for 118k. The phone na wonder

i dey jealous you oo

genius43:

ubev01:
stated by who?

by his ancestors lolz

nwaobitex:
note 8 is better abi

yes lolz,so Nigerian Arny is better than American army

abdsamad:
Which picture are you hiding? Maybe your phone is tired of being an accomplice

lolz,bubble busted ,i have seen it

Please guys ,I used to see hide feature in my picture gallery when i got my phone new (RN5,MIUI 9)but after the update to MIUI 10 i stopped seeing it but i can still access all the pictures that i hid

maclawrence02:
Same here
Disable navigation button and use full screen gesture one of my most loved feature on MIUI.eu. Novice dey confuse when they try to use my phone.

lolz love that gesture

HolyTitus:
mine brought 1.6 gig update - same 10.3.4 ooo

maybe you haven't updated to pie so it added the pie update and latest monthly security patch update

genius43:
Contact Lovexme, he was able to unbrick his and another persons. He is in Lagos though.

Fake Unlocked bootloader, that was the cause of most bricks for those updating from Oreo to Pie on RN5.

same reason why i was afraid to update mine but las las i was lucky,when it took long to reboot,i damn panicked lolz

genius43:
You are welcome. Enjoy, RN5 still a rugged phone

i swear,if am to upgrade it will be for mi9t pro or better device

I have successfully updated my RN5 to android 9(p),thanks to genius43 for his help and encouragement because i was afraid of bricking my device based on some peoples experience

Gptech:
Ok, since na type B port, I dey sure say na Redmi 7 u see, not note 7.

don't mind the guy ,he is busy making unecessary noise,they are the ones that sammy has used to enrich their pocket while selling them overpriced phone

Myllz:
Samsung get better fones but they are over priced. D RN7 is better Dan d A50 in real life comparison. I love Sammy but Xiaomi offers value 4 money, Personally I think Sammy is overpriced. I'll take the Huawei p30 pro over the S10+.. I no dy use fone cos of name but wetin d fone get to offer me

you are damn right,i was gunning for A70 and when mi9t came out i weighed both phones and found out mi9t is better whereas both has nearly same price

Whizpeter:

You people thought you'd gotten rid of me ba?
IN your dreams! In all your dreams!

I jumped from oneplus 5 to galaxy a50 but the love of miui never left my heart. The full screen gestures on this a50 is like punishment. So I went to download miui gestures app jejely and now I'm feeling like I never left the xiaomi gang.
Ui
I'll manage this one until I can finally put money together to get mi 9t pro

To be fair, a50 isn't all bad: I like the grip and the lightness. Mot a ton of bloatware too.
The indisplay fingerprint was designed to raise someone BP. I just had to settle for face unlock.. Which is fine. Battery and Ram optimization are other sources of headache. Me I'm not sure that they counted the 4000mah complete.

Did I say I would keep it till I get mi 9t pro? Sorry I meant to say: "help! Pls I'll manage poco phone if you dash me

lolzzz

Born2smile:
Preferably keep it on a table. If you must keep it on your bed, keep it around where you place your head.

But if you want to sleep very well at night, your phone should not be around your bed.

i once slept on top of my RN5 till morning but to my surprise nothing happened to it

2kurupt:
Are you using a smart TV? Ordinary TV can't be connected to show what your phone is displaying

OK,because am using Samsung flat screen

genius43:
Am not expecting that, and am also not interested in getting that phone. My eyes are somewhere else.

Only Interested to see how the phone will fair in the market after its release.

Like the Redmi Note 6 pro the RN 8/8 pro is an experiment, my opinion though.

that note 6pro though,it was near flop ,rarely an upgrade to note 5

tidedroid:
i've never really understood how infinix and tecno release phones in the 60-80k price mark and still avoid the mtk helio p60-70 like a plague even with brands like xiaomi,nokia and huawei being more involved in the Nigerian midrange market for the past 2 years

because they base their main market is mainly Africa especially Nigeria where many dont care about chipset or that but moderate camera and battery life

oyepaulkay:
Settings >> Wireless Display

after that what will i do to the tele or any device to connect it to

oyepaulkay:
A very big yes....even my Redmi Note 5A prime does

how can one do it on RN5
