Gurus in the house please weigh in on this:

As a xiaomi user, does one really need MI cloud backup assuming one is already backing up stuff to Google account.
Also, it appears some stuff like SMS messages, call history, etc don't backup to Google account.

Absolutely, which would you prefer using?
Google cloud backup or
MI cloud backup or
Combination of both?

What other options are available if any?

Asking for a friend................

MI cloud back up for me is 80% Google 10% local Back 10%

Mi cloud makes changing of phone easier, wifi password, Call history, sms, Notes, and many more even User settings wink

I am yet to understand the meaning of this popped up message. Immediately this message is popped up, the device will start acting up. It will start blinking by interchanging between Menu page and blackout. Used to apply Restart Button to correct it. Kindly advice.
Update your device if there is any availability update or download the rom manually and flash.

I'll say Google because it's easier restoring on a non xiaomi device and even iOS. Just connect to the internet and your contacts, calenders etc update automatically.

For now, it's only my phone number that is linked to it.
Did you activate 'Do Not Disturb' on the line? If you did, then you might want to deactivate it as that could be the problem.

first paragraph is light years from being correct.
Express shipping is limitless. It's just that there's no Salah's performance for the price of Ahmed Musa. All versions are available on express so far the buyer can afford it (still cheaper than d likes of DHL tho). It was the common aim of price friendliness that make express shipping looks like it's for Chinese rom/versions only. In most buyer's words, "after all, I can always move to the global rom instead of the price difference".

The options are many, each with its price tho
AliExpress (regular shipping), price is long delivery period
Express (global rom/Chinese rom), price is global version
Express (global version), price is money
AliExpress (expedited shipping), price is money

Fact is dt Chinese OEMs/technologies aren't for anyone that can't pay any of the above prices.


Why are you not advertising the global versions of phones instead of Chinese versions for express? You know the price would scare potential buyers away right? Am not here trying to piss on your parade or your hustle but what you still don't understand is not anyone can afford the extra 1k-4k.

Given the Nigerian situation of uncertainty of life after school, the probability is close to zero. There will never be a right time unless the individual wants to continue living on hope

the list will become redundant if each version, color has a space on it. That's how online ads are conventionally: d cheapest option takes d ad slot. Just as AliExpress sellers won't choose black colour and DHL shipping for u by default. Doing so will deny those that are ok with the base deal the right to know dt dey can buy it. Do you know y now? wink

It is still not tantamount to limitations, is it?
Nth like pissing on hustles at all as all versions are available on express and have previously been gotten for ppl. If na hustle, then erry way na way, whether express o, or AliExpress. In fact, some ppl requested for d Chinese version(running on Chinese rom) with AliExpress shipping. It's all about individual situations n needs
@ the boldened, I'm not sure I've pitched my tent with d 1-4k thingy. Why you concluded that I didn't understand that fingers are not equal still baffles me sha because none of my statements meant such

But then Google doesn't backup SMS and call history. Unless you want to use Truecaller for that.
