I just found that even if you are going the custom rom route on a Xiaomi device, you're not entirely free from MIUI, periodically you will need to flash a folder called firmware updates from MIUI rom updates, failure to do so may make your Xiaomi device to have bugs that make the phone unusable or even prevent booting. Normally rom makers have a work around for senarios like this but nothing beats OEM support. On the surface this may look like a bad thing but it's actually a blessing because Xiaomi are known to support their devices for long like Apple even if their devices only get a maximum of 2 android OS upgrade. A major problem Android phones have is long term support, custom ROMs can't really solve that problem because they only update top level Android system environment, the underlining firmware is as exactly as the Android OEM left it n so really isn't secure as you would assume. Xiaomi deserve over accolades for their support of device

na you dey scarrer and na you dey build up again. well-done sir

Israellionel:
Who Knows Whether The Redmi 5 Plus would Be Available On Jumia Come February Next Year.
or Would It Run Out Of Stock,
I Really Like The Phone And I'm Currently Saving Up.

wait till Feb na. If you ask us, na who will go ask?

Adegbem01:
Please I need to know (from those with the experience sha) if I can use small generator with xiaomi (redmi note 5) charger and it would not blow or damage it.

careful sha, that thing fit blow aeroplane, na charger e no go fit blow?

Olodo24:
what do they mean by global firmware? their shipping fees might make up for the Jumia margin.


I'm loving the Huawei honor 8c already though

global firmware means that it's made for people outside China

Olodo24:
how about the shipping fees I see on aliexpress?

this one is free shipping at 89k but you can even get it cheaper if you use sellers here. Eg noobody, protein0, macbeyland.

vower:
So nobody knows where I can get that oppo realme 2 pro?

India bro, check India

Olodo24:
where be that? tell me please. Nigerian stores no dey smile at all

check AliExpress

flexerking:
correct guy nor mind jumia 105k .

1st time I saw mi Max on jumia, it sells btw 120 to 150. Ended up buying it for 65 on Ali. Knowledge they say is power. I don learn since then to look Wella before I buy

Nothing wrong in their design choice, everybody does it. However, the price of that Tecno can get you the Huawei nova 3i if you know where to look.

Biscari:
Great............

Wait until your two year old picks up your locked phone and turn on airplane mode when you are expecting a very important call.

hmmm, I see your point there

Biscari:
I mean you can edit the quick settings icons even when the phone is locked. You can turn on or off mobile data, airplane mode, Hotspot, Bluetooth, Nearby, etc even when the device is locked.

Modified: screenshot added.

I still don't see the problem with that. It simply means I can use torch light without unlocking my phone as well as other things

noobody:
Even EMS rejected it the last time i tried using nipost,its so bad that they even reject phones with sealed batteries too.

They claim say somtin somtin radiation,

lol

fibonacci2526:
So my Pocophone is gone as we were robbed overnight, the thief got away with so many stuffs but i thank God for the perseverance of lives which is most important. God dey o.

God pass them, thank God for lives and sorry for the loss

2kurupt:
Do Nipost now offer delivery services? Just got a call about the availability of my package for pickup with the PO guy offering to bring it down to my Address.

they do that once in a while this days.

queenfav:
Thanks.. I updated my device at night though. The audio quality issue has been fixed.I also tweaked my audio settings a bit like u suggested, the audio quality with headphones plus Google play music is pretty amazing now. Thanks a bunch!

good to hear Ma'am. Justice to the original post then.

Agbi4:
How please? You should have asked me if I use the powerbank or if I was using the power bank to charge the phone. I should have changed the powerbank before now but I didn't the need to because since I bought the Redmi Note 5 I've hardly used it. I just need a powerbank now because I will be travelling during the holidays and the light situation may be worse there than here.

ok, noted

[quote author=repairpalng post=73383173][/quote]boss how far with the mi Max 2?

MrDoGood:
Something we talked about almost a month ago, just yesterday he started quoting me as if he just saw my comment. Trying to paint it as if he sold data to me, when it got to time of payment i started giving excuses and didn't pay him.

The dude is funny and not being straight forward

just let it slide man,

macbeyland:
.
Meaning the one crying foul is even the person meant to pay some money for data used up.

we will soon get his own version soon

Ifedith:
I guess different ear for different folks... Nk be someone just says Tecno of 3800 sounds better... Oh well? Wat do i know

na so sha. But I really love the build quality

macbeyland:
I really don't know why this issue should be trending. If he collected money and didn't give service, it's a different case entirely.

Scam is when someone pays for something and the service provider fails to deliver after receiving money. In this case, money never changed hands.

my point exactly bro

NigeriaBam:
God bless you Boss...

See the screenshot of data balance he sent to me and told me that, is not work..

I sent 4GB (4096MB) and used it to 3876MB..

He used 220MB.

another angle

Agbi4:
Does anybody have the Xiaomi 2c 20000mAh and can recommend it? My Aukey power bank is swollen and I'm looking for a new powerbank.

please modify your 1st post, it sounded as if the phone was crap whereas your swollen power bank was the culprit.

lovelani:
Thank you sis for this clear and straight forward review . I hope by now , those asking for what a premium device is would understand.
I'm done in this forum as I've gotten answers to what I am here for .

this is the Xiaomi thread, not the redmi note 5 thread. If you need a Xiaomi premium device, Go for mi mix3, mi 8 pro, mi mix 2s etc

Ifedith:
My experience over 4 years on Xiaomi... Only experienced ads once... Mi 4... Since den i never see ads for my phone maybe because i know wer to turn of ads. I have never seen ads anywhere in phone since mi 4, i turn off all recommendations and ads option.
For upgrades, i never pass up the chance to upgrade... Not in my lifetime... And I've always enjoyed all the updates.
For audio issues ehn... ... I go give Nokia coloud pop for 2k kpere and if u suffer bad audio ehn make i 24.

this your Nokia coloud? My mi capsule with just one working earpiece sounds way better. Currently using both

krattoss:
can sd 625 compare with heliop70?

as if any infix phone uses advice p23

MrDoGood:
Oga what did you ask for?

Please post the screen shots lets see our conversation.

Where you not the one that said my sim is ''provisioning sim''? and it's not compatible with data share to work on whatsapp.

And i told you i do buy data from other re sellers, but why is urz different?

I called you several times on that fateful day to see how we could fix it and you kept telling me that you are working on it. Only for me to check hours later and didn't see any data again. I called to let you know the data disappeared from my line, and wanted to know how come. You tried explaining and i couldn't relate with ur explanation and you said you were going to tell me on whatsapp.
You wrote me and said
''Have forwarded it to appropriate authority to disable it''

Did i call nor message you after the last message you sent me?

Yahaya Abdulfatai, pls respect yourself oh

what's up with you guys self? You needed data, he sent. Data didn't work and you have not sent money to him, he took his data back and you are still complaining. Same thing happened to be, he took his data and we are good.

peterveo:
I have done both sir, it's just blinking the red sensor light when connected to charger but won't vibrate or start.

you just spoilt your battery with fake charger. Sorry. Get a new battery and avoid charging with anyhow charger

GrandMufti:
Swap with what?

busted
