Guys please advise me on what to do. It's a matter of urgency. Two weeks ago i misplaced my redmi 8 to those one chance danfo bus drivers/conductors that i boarded to work and i was so pained due to my files in the phone. I had no option than to get another phone (redmi 9) the following week. Though I've not been feeling my new phone like i used to do with the old one. After getting my new phone, first thing to do was to use the redmi 9 to search for my old missing phone (redmi which i didn't see. But i still went ahead to lock it and i left some notes for whoever is with the phone including my new number to call Fast forward to today, an hausa boy called me saying that he bought my redmi 8 from someone at Alaba market for a sum of 35k and ever since then, he has not been able to use the phone as the only thing that comes up on the screen is the message i used to lock the phone. He said even flashing doesn't work. He said he want to return it to the person he bought it from despite the fact that he can't still recognize the seller face. I asked of the seller shop, he said the seller doesn't have a shop. That he bought it from those guys standing.

I've promised to give him 15k for the phone, He's insisting 25k. And I'm not financially bouyant at the moment. Please what can i do to get my phone back. My files are over important to me. Please advise me.

P.S: I've searched for the phone and it's showing me some distance away from where it was stolen (Abule Egba). And the boy told me that the phone is with him in Sabo...Abeokuta (While the phone was stolen in lagos and he bought it in lagos also). I don't know the one to follow if it's the location I'm seeing on my redmi 9 screen or where the buyer says he is. Please suggest a better way to go about it for me. I need it very bad.

Thank you in advance

Creating a Mi Account should be one of the first things you do when you get a Xiaomi phone it cannot be overemphasized.

Sorry for your loss. The only thing is to track it with police it will cost you and it takes time.

Charlie2020:
Thanks for your reply. I was able to log into my Xiaomi mi account. But I didn't see where I can track my missing phone. Can you assist please

error4040:

stephinnoyewole:

he needs to see the latest MIUI 12 from EU ROM... his heart will be blown off... the animation on 2020.11/11 weekly is madding
sold my phone yesterday, I could have attached some screensshots

festwiz:


I use the Note 9s and charge from 5-100% in 1:50 with the phone turned off. Check your average temps. Hopefully you're not charging it placed on a mattress causing your device to heat up and in turn slow down charging. Currently the ambient temps where I live is sub 28° in the evenings when I usually charge.

Also, the average quick charge current is 2.5A when it's sub 80%.

Point to note from my time with the device, when your battery temps hit 38° you'll be restricted to charging at .5A. Reduce heavy usage while charging not to hasten battery wear. Always try and keep battery temps within 30°, well since it's Nigeria, 35°. Battery temps around 40° will see your battery wear out about 20% more.

PS: I don't use a case on my device. Maybe it could be a factor, dunno.

ChocolateHigh:

udysweet:

alosbaba007:
Anyone have an idea what is making the stock call app to hang frequently on RN9S 4/64

Sometimes to pick a call na war or nowhere to pick the call and if a call is waiting while on a call it will hang as soon as the ongoing call ends.

Phone is running MIUI 12 and this issues started before mui 12 and still persist after upgrading.

Thanks

Dilly55:

genius43:


You are too far behind in updates, you have to update to the latest MIUI 11 I advise you do the one for 11.0.12.0 instead of 11.0.11.0

qloreal:


Alright

Dilly55:


How do I do that please. It's the 11.0.11.0 that's showing up

You won't get a mid range phone with that instead you'll get a bargain in entry level phones.
