Ladies and gentlemen.. I am happy to report that errm Oneplus is a good devices and the OS is a good OS. But I am happier to report that errm ayam coming back to miui as soon as my situation will allow.
Miui is playing chess while this one is a ludo grandmaster

Why the change of heart so soon bro? Other people that have used both OS have given me the impression that One Plus is the next best thing after sliced bread. angry

My gcam capture button doesn't work. Instead, it'll just flash some light. I also noticed "flash" displayed on the camera each time I open it (as seen in the ss).

Any way to correct this or I should uninstall and reinstall?

Let's be serious! When last did you update you torch phone? You transferred data to it and effected a restart like you normally do on smartphones after an update, and you expect it not to update?! Biko, Don't vex me this early ọjọ àìkú.

Seriously, this issue is subjective. You can only be sure of your experiences; if you haven't experienced it, you will likely not believe it.

I still maintain the fact that all ISPs do zapping. Why and factors that make a line eligible grin is what I don't understand because why is it a random thing??!!

Very well said. Not some folks forming shareholders of MTN.

In like manner I maintain that Glo offer the best value with respect to data offerings then maybe Airtel for those not experiencing extortionist zapping.

Las las everybody should stick to what works for him or her

For flash. Set it on auto or turn it off.

For capture button, 'force close' the app or reboot or try another build

Yeah, Glo offers the best value but it's a known fact, their network is bad. If Glo can just fix their network and stop assuming that nothing is wrong with it, then their subscribers base will large.

Although, some people have good network in their area, out of 100%, I can say only about 20% enjoy the network. Although, the statistics is not confirmed but that's what it seems. For my house, ordinary 2g signal, I no dey get for Glo. Not to talk of 3g and 4g.

In fact, in my area, nobody wey no dey complain about them to the extent that I've come to the conclusion that no one uses it in my area.

Maybe it is just my biased opinion sha. I can't make a strong objective case but miui feels smoother. Maybe the problem is that I'm comparing mi 8 to oneplus 5 sha. Maybe cos I've gotten used to miui but i felt like embracing my mi 8 after using the op5 for about 2 days.

What's happening with Airtel?
I wasn't given any bonus data even after sending MIFI to 141. I just got the double data...only.
It's a new SIM

I was thinking of buying their 4g router plan before but I'm sure they'll rip me off
genius43:


The night I download avengers Endgame of 921mb with night plan the four times wasn't enough which is theoretically 1Gb, I had to complete the remaining 50Mb with my Glo data. That was one of the highest they have cheated me in night plan.

When Night plan was 500Mb for #25 it was fairer, I usually use up to 490Mb

You are used to miui and its kind of addictive, fact. You surely must feel the difference between both processors too, Oxygen OS is definitely smoother than miui.

The charger is okay. From 0-100% takes about 2hrs or so.

You don't need a fast charger for Redmi 7. The charger that comes with it is okay.

I did o. I sent GET and MIFI next...no show. Just a text message saying they will activate it shortly. I later got a successful message. Upon doing 1k data, this is what I got...



PS. I don't ask me what the exipired data is. I just got the SIM new from their office today and just loaded N100 to activate it and later N1000 to get the supposed data. So, I'm as confused as you are.

I think mine is more than 2 hrs. I'm charging from 16% now. Let me see how long it will take to get to 100%.

Brotherly I used to feel like that too but for the past couple of months I won't lie, Glo has been bae. I had to switch after MTN started making me sub 1k at least twice a week.

If your location is one of their good locations I'll say give em a try.

Their SIM is just 100 bucks, comes with data & call bonuses. For 2,500 I get 13gb data & 10k call bonus for all networks. I must add the zapping bug has not infected them so much that it becomes obvious. Not forgetting the data is shared with wifey & still averages +- 3 weeks.

Now tell me what beats that?
