Boss that your guy is a suspect, sorry to say it. That phone is likely stolen like mine. If that's the case, thanks to miui, that phone is already useless, security it not breakable for now, you might even be tracked down, be careful.
he buys phone when he travels out for official duties at low prices then sell here in nigeria.

the issue has being resolved thanks guys,
but my default music player is not working,
though I switch to Google player as default now

thanks bro

Come to think of it, how did you even update? The most conventional methods of updates don't normally request you to activate an already logged in Mi account.
it was unlocked without even Mi Account (the guy removed it)
that "updater app" since has being showing me update available just last week I decided to update...
then after reboot it showed me that mi account stuff...

chatted with the seller, that is not even his account,
so na to dump the phone, I haven't even used 5%

GrandMufti:
The otp to reset the password can also be sent to the mobile number attached to the miui account. So if the guy claims he's on the go and can't access his email, at least he has his phone with him. I don't think there is any other way to retrieve the password other than to reset it.
no hope for now from the guy, d sim number linked with the phone is in Nigeria, I don't know when he is coming back
i only chat with him tru BBM,
so do I have to flash it I don't mind, I can't be waiting to use my phone (important mails need instant replying).

@OP I got your point but if XYZ company can't bear the heat/stress in conducting recruitment with their name then It should be outsourced.

Login with PC, and click forgot password, so you change the password from your email.
Yea, that is the idea I told the guy(I bought the phone from someone, he travels out a lot)

he can't access the mail used for the phone, so I need another option...
thanks bro

Pls guys help a brother, I bought the phone early Jan this year from a friend, but refuse to do an update till am very sure that the update won't cause issues.
fast forward on Sunday I decided to update it since the "updater app" is showing me new update since.
After the update (6hundred and something megabyte) the phone rebooted then started showing me

Activate this device picture below...

the guy removed the Mi Account before handing over the phone. I even double checked and since then I didn't create my own (no need).
I called the guy he didn't remember the password, and He said he deactivated it (which I saw him do).

please which way from here,
urgently needed.
it's a Mi4 phone

Science/TechnologyRe: $13B: Most Expensive War Ship Ever Built Finally Hits Water(photos). by Zetra(m): 2:14am On Apr 11, 2017
Explorers:
Even missiles that are not nuclear or torpedoes can hit and sink her.

But do you know the only problem here?



Hitting her......


She will detect threats from hundreds of miles away, launching fighters jets, Apaches, destroyer boats, even missiles or torpedoes to counter the threat.

Though is likely there's a technology that can blind or hack her radar.
also the body design comes into play just like the stealth plane in moving almost undetected.

Somebody is surely benefiting from this darkness..
1. The petrol Stations: They bribe "Nepa" Station close to them so as have influx of customer, directly increase in profit.

2. The importers: Including FG(check annual budget on fuelling/Generator N2b+)

3. The manufacturers: China/the rest... steady power means low production/out of business

4. "Nepa" themselves: Steady light means no "egunje/extra cash" from all of the above

My dear sister, the bolded shows you knew his character before you married him. because a person cannot plant yam and harvest cocoyam.

he happens to be the verbally abusive type and honestly, this is a cross you have to bare in your marriage.


However, the only way I see is - talk to him about your feelings on the issue, and hope he changes.

All the best!
I do see some parents calling their kids all sort of names when the kids misbehave... my point to them it's normal to them, they are just trying to express themselves.

Solution is talk about it and how it's affecting you. When you endure it and do nothing, he may act same towards your unborn kids.

Jobs/VacanciesRe: Company Got All My Details Without Me Submitting Application. by Zetra(m): 9:03pm On Mar 22, 2017
fratermathy:
I've reported the website to its domain registrar and hosting company (Namecheap). I know they don't tolerate scams and fraudulent schemes. Expect the website to be taken down soonest.

Here's what I sent:

"Hello,

There has been multiple complaints about this website: (https://www.comooilandgas.us) on this Nigeria's Nairaland forum: https://www.nairaland.com/3698060/company-got-all-details-without. This website has been reported by many Nigerians as a fraudulent one. The fake website is posing as a legitimate USA company website (www.comooilandpropane.com). The scam is based on the payment of "verification fees" of $3 per person for an interview opportunity. Payment is made online and card details may even be compromised. There also may be other hidden payments in the whole dubious process.

Many people may have fallen victim already and more will eventually do if this is not investigated and the website shut down immediately. I trust the integrity of your brand and expect a swift action on this matter."

Just to add this

Jobs/VacanciesShocking Errors On Federal Civil Service Shortlisted Names (edo State) by Zetra(op):
Check Edo State list
Education Officer II No.11 - 18 (the list is ok because the numbering and the names are accordingly).

Then check Foreign Affairs - After number 6, then straight to number 11, the No.11 - 18 is the same with Education Officer II(there is an error with the filing of names here).

You can apply for different position, but what is the probability of having the same names/courses, typed/ complied with the same number (no.11-18 for Education Officer II) applying for two positions being selected?
I am not against anybody success but I think there is error in the "Foreign Affairs" list (imagine the number of slots wasted because of computation/filing error) .

Note: The interview date is fixed already.
I may be wrong / just assuming about all these I pointed in the list below
Or...


You can take your time to go through your state list too

Jobs/VacanciesRe: Federal Civil Service 2016 Recruitment by Zetra(m): 6:21am On Mar 20, 2017
Went through a "state list".
An error occurred or maybe not, but I feel if intentional then it's so wrong because someone else is deprived of it.

Don't want to say State before someone from ministry review it, then the owner of the name will call me bad belle.

GBAM

for those seeking to teach in a private school read the letter very well, ask questions from insider or around before you sign the appointment letter because it's better you don't sign, because you can't resign immediate, they will refuse to accept it, you may have to pay them or work for free for a month before you can leave

They don't care after all if they sack everybody tomorrow other people will take the job even with a lower pay.

All those saying he didn't do this/that,
know that some private school you should not fall ill, you can't do home-lesson with their student, if they find out its - dismissal,
you come to work on Saturdays/Sunday and you will be informed on Friday(so your weekend plans is shattered), failure is minus N1000 (in their mind, shey we are paying you monthly).
pension is must (if you were fired - you won't be paid), tax is must (if they remit it is not your business) Salary N20k-N45k
You ask/challenge a decision in school-meeting you know would even affect the student you are given query / threaten with sack

During OBJ tenure, billions were allocated to development projects and they disappeared. He even used government resources to make his own farm.

Jobs/VacanciesRe: 10 Reasons Why You Are Still Looking For A Job by Zetra(m): 8:24am On Mar 16, 2017
Good points
But when I see some of these writeups I feel some don't address the real issue about Job/business in "Nigeria".

Why hustling to get Jobs / do-business in Nigeria seems like climbing Mount Everest but when we leave to other countries we make marks/excel (legitimately) with even lesser energy than what we put-in in Nigeria.

Nigerians are hard/smart and resilient, we don't let negativity kill us, we don't look down-on the jobs/pay/business, we still hold on and excel in that little we see/get.

thanks sis,am very grateful for your reply.but I may ask maybe you know why?!
you can,
if opera mini (mobile)
- just tap on the picture and the options will pop out,
- select save image.
- check you gallary / download folder for the saved picture

if default browser(mobile)
- after saving it, use a file explorer to open the location of the file
- the rename the save picture extention to filename.jpeg, or .jpg, .png

example the file name of the saved picture is 37fdfj3688fjpghv.047ef
- open your file Explorer to locate it
-press down on the picture to bring out the options you will see rename. then I the file is now 37fdfj3688fjpghv.jpeg

(some phones like blackberry it's property you will select instead of rename option to change the file extention)

Ogun State (Agbara) Omonile is something else. Imagine them sending their sons/touts to block a route the various of companies in that zone use, just to force the to pay for one rubbish party jam in the Zone unto they are omoniles.
These companies pays taxes/securities and even a build a Police Station on that same route. The policemen did nothing. end of the day to avoid issues they where settled.

In Lagos the latest I hear was market Iya Oya forcing people to pay for upkeep of Iya Oya monthly, environmental dues (you are the one still doing this duty) etc after paying the normal lockup store levy. If you want to renovate your shop(roof/tiles etc) even as a tenant you will pay, if not some of your items will be seized, or you will be sent out of the market.
That's the reason every crannies of Lagos outside the market shop/kisok is being built because the only dues you pay is lockup shop tax yearly, union and security(monthly)
