Please guys, a friend of mine told me something and I'll like to kjow if it's a lie.


He says new xiaomi phones don't connect to wireless gaming devices (e.g gaming pad) is this a lie or is he telling the truth?

Please update your device. It could be an issue that has been fixed in successive patches.

Your phone is so way out of date.

Update your device

It is still misbehaving despite the update. Is there something I can look on?

Backup and restore your device. Then watch what you install.

Whenever I delete contacts, I find out they don't leave my WhatsApp. And in no time, the deleted contacts somehow show again on my contacts list.
Again, I can't see options to check d contacts on my sim card. I can only see d emails and device lists.. How do I go about this?

Guys please, is the dust issue of the redmi note 9 series camera, true?
Several users have reported it so it's possible. Haven't had the issue yet though so I can't say it's false or it factually affects all Note 9 series devices.

Pls guys My redmi note 8 browser keep popping up even when I was playing game. It will pop up and my game will minimize. What's really wrong? Should I just delete it?
You don't need to delete it just Restrict data usage since you have another browser you're using.. App info → Restrict data usage.

Hello Xiaomites. Please who is still using RN4
I noticed mine is not as optimal as it used to be. Im not sure if it's Ram or age that is worrying it.
I mostly experience this when I'm using Chrome, although I notice it slightly in other apps.
I used to think it was.
I used to think it was cookies and browser history clogging up but after numerously clearly cache and browser history, I don't think that's the culprit.

Pls is there something I can do to make my phone faster?

Kindly remove d sim card, insert it into a small phone and select d number to delete or rename in d small phone...

I don't think you can delete contacts on your sim via Xiaomi phones...

To check d contacts on ur sim>>>click on Google folder, click on Contacts, click on settings, select import to see contacts in ur sim card...

Good luck...

My Redmi note 9s earpiece (not earphone) keeps failing i.e I won't be able to hear from my end when receiving. But when I reboot it by holding the power button it returns to normal.


The thing is this has been re-occuring and it is tiring, it would work for like 3 days then it would stop working until i reboot it.

Note the software is up to date, is there any long lasting solution to this?

Try another earpiece to check if the former one is faulty...

Earpiece is at the top of your device. It's the speaker that audio comes from when you're recieving phone calls. Earphones are different.

That's a serious issue although i haven't seen any Nigerian complaining of it and mostly the same two images every time. One person notice the problem the very same day he bought the phone probably from the factory. I guess if you didn't notice it within the first few days then your device is safe.

Get a good Case and clean that area of your phone often. And mind the surfaces you drop your phone.

It's internal dusts, Cleaning won't solve it. A technician is what solve it for the people who experience it although it still appeared later. Once the unit is defective i doubt a good case or cleaning would make any difference. It's an airtight chamber, under normal circumstances with or without cases dust shouldn't enter, not even fog. Fortunately it isn't that rampant and Xiaomi quality department have acknowledge it.

LOL. Two possibilities: First is they release A10 and MIUI 12 at the same time with the same update. This will take time and it'll prolly happen October/November. The second is that they release A10 first and then MIUI 12 later. Whichever happens, it's already late for whichever is happening. MIUI 12 has been in supposed beta testing since May or so.
