Hello, and have a good day - Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question

Hello, this will be to who may concern or know about this little issue that I have.
2 days ago I was downloading the MIUI lasted version, 12.0.2 and everything was ok until it modified my notification bar and other apps, for example I used to have the notifications from WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram, and others when I received plenty all together, but now it's all extended with photos even, I want it on the old way cuz extended occupies too much space when I scroll down notifications. I will attached 2 examples on how it was and how it is, if somebody could help me I would really appreciate it, my cellphone it's a Xiaomi redmi note 9s.
Thanks a lot.

Redmi Note 2 Prime vs Redmi Note 3
Redmi Note 2 Prime (32GB version):
-Better processor clock (2.2. GHz vs 2.0GHz)
-Better Price
-Bootloader unlock (-> Unofficial European ROM available)
-SD-card slot
Redmi Note 3 (32GB version)
-Fingerprint sensor
-Metal body
-Better Battery (4000mAh vs 3060mAh)
-Dual Tone LED
In my opinion Redmi Note 2 Prime is much better than Redmi Note 3 that isn't usable because it has got a locked bootloader.
~ Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 Prime ~
Id prefer rn2 over rn3 because of its price and its little development comunity. The only thing I like of rn3 is its metal body and better batery life (3000 mah vs 4000 mah), but for me it is not worthy.

In my opinion, you should also mention the dual tone LED flash and much bigger battery on the Redmi Note 3 in order to have an objective comparison.

I don't think that the RN2 battery will be enough for you.
We must be objective: RN2 battery life is short, compared to others smartphones with 3000 mAh (+/-).

It changes a little.
The only way to have a long battery is to avoid the use of Facebook and Whatsapp in my opinion (Facebook for sure).

Yep, hes right, rn2 hasnt a great battery life even its big battery, but it still being acceptable, it just could be better. However, i have heard in some video reviews that rn3 is even worst with battery, and there isnt any real difference with rn2.
And well, i have a rn2 with last developer rom from xiaomi.eu, and it hasnt a great battery life, some releases ago it was pretty nice, but since the last 2 versions its been worst. However, this means that the problem is from the ROM and not from the phone, and as they are getting optimized we will have better battery life, and even better when we get marshmallow since lollipop has problems with this and with RAM management.
I still thinking rn2 is better option , but you decide my friend.

It will, rn2 will get marshmallow, its confirmed, it will get it maybe in may of this year. And yep, is interesting, you should watch or read some reviews of it.
Marshmallow
The Redmi Note 2 has been confirmed to get Marshmallow in a few months.
Also, I do have my RN2 at the moment and a huge downfall is stock MIUI RAM consumption.
I'd say the RN2, bigger community and like someone said, unlocked bootloader.

Hi @SkiFire13, sorry if this is OOT.
I'm new with RN2 Prime, is it always compatible if we flash any RN2 rom into RN2 Prime?
Thanks.

AFAIK, there are no RN2-16GB-specific ROMs.
And considering that:
1. It's not possible to build a custom kernel for our phone, right now
2. As a result of 1, all custom ROMs use Xiaomi's pre-built kernels from official MIUI ROMs (which in turn, are designed to work on all versions of RN2)
..I don't think it likely that such ROMs will appear in the foreseeable future.

I'm also thinking about buying RN2 or RN3 and I found this post: http://en.miui.com/thread-202290-1-1.html
It seems that unlocking the bootloader in RN3 is possible now and actually not hard at all. Does anyone have RN3 to try this?
I have a Note 2 and I would prefer this. SD Card and removable battery are too much to lose only to have a metal unibody (that maybe will always covered by a cover)
May be redmi note 3 32GB is better ,battery 4000mAH
I have the Note 3 and regret it, should have gone for the Note 2 and my reasons are:
Pros of the Note 3 vs Note 2
- Battery
- Metal Build
Cons Note 3:
- Fingerprint sensor only has one use, which is to turn on the screen, you can't use with anything else...
- No expandable storage
- And the main one, that is driving me mad is the locked bootloader, you can unlock it, but you have to request the code on their website, but to get this code you have to wait a long time, some are saying 14+ days and you might not be selected, like if you have to be special to get it, WTF Xiaomi???
So if you don't care about the plastic build, go for the Note 2, it's cheaper, with expandable storage, faster CPU on the Prime model and a freaking unlocked bootloader.
Seems there's a way to unlock RN3 bootloader, I'll quote from Xiaomi.eu website:

Camera vs redmi note 2

Hello. I currently have redmi note 2 and I want to sell it to buy redmi note 3 SD. But I heard so many bad things about it's camera. I want to know if its quality is worse than redmi note 2. And if yes, how much.
Thanks.
Between Rn3 and Redmi 2 (not note), I feel Redmi 2 camera is better.

Honest opinion bro..
Dont buy, because redmi note 2 is also a good device. ( same camera result and day to day activities).
If you want to go for higher model (20000rs) ,then its good to sell.
But its not wise choice to change RN2 to RN3.
Better you wait more 6 months, and you will have many new options.
Take note that I love RN3, but i gave my opinion as you asked.
Thanks for answers. I'm just sick of mediatek! That's why I wanted to buy RN3 but I might wait...
Hey bro you are not right.redmi note 3 have 16 megapixel back camera while redmi note 2 have only 8 megapixel rear camera so the difference is that redmi note 3 camera quality is awesome than redmi note 2 and yaa also RN3 has finger print sensor ,it is slim,metal body and man believe man it's 4000mah battery life is amazing.
I made the same upgrade you want to do: redmi note 2 since September 2015... Redmi note 3 Snapdragon since March 2016.
My answer to you is a question: are you satisfied with Redmi Note 2 battery life?
If yes, then don't sell your phone. The upgrade is not in the camera department.
(imho both cameras are disappointing, same level... very low level... like a "good" 8 Megapixel can beat either Redmi Note 2 and RN3 SD)
If you want more battery life, then go buy the Redmi Note 3 Pro. The upgrade is incredible.
Same use (almost all 3G, 5% of the time in Wifi) with Note 2 It was very hard to reach 4 hours of SOT. With RN3 Pro I get 8 hours very easy, and sometimes even 9-10 hours of SOT.
So, no: for the camera performance it's not worth it. But for the rest, it is.
tq for those review, yep i think want to upgrade reno2 to reno3pro,
Reason want buy reno3pro 1st : battery life so tired, 2nd : feel mediatek version not getting marshmallow, looks like getting old android later, miui8 = 5.0.1 lolipop? huh..
3rd : fingerprint, 4th : Battery 4000Mah, 5th : looks like in cm got cm13 (marshmallow, With it not in reno2)
I wanted to upgrade because of
1. Battery
2. Metal body
3. Fingerprint scanner
4. Newer Android version and more custom roms
5. Mediatek cpu and powervr gpu had some compatibility issues.
If the camera is same level, so I'm OK with it. Thanks for replies.
here is a picture I took on the kenzo

Honestly I believe RN3pro camera is better. I have seen people complain about camera quality. If you really want good camera performance, use those camera apps that provides lots of manual settings. The default auto values in stock camera app are just meant for basic tasks. So for better picture quality, all you need to do is adjust the setting as per the surrounding. Set desired exposure levels, brightness, sharpness and so on...
Believe me, you will see a dramatic change in your photography.
In Well Lit conditions Camera Quality is great, Low light it struggles, RN3 uses Samsung s5k3p3 Image sensor which is good definitely better camera than Note 2,some pics took by me..

Wait for Redmi Note 5 or get Note 4 or A1 ??

Now I need a new phone as soon as possible. My Zuk Z1 crashed 3 weeks ago and I've been using my dad's phone from then which is a Asus Zenfone 2 with 2Gb RAM, 16 Gb storage and a Snapdragon 400. Xiaomi just held a conference in India launching the Y1 and Y1Lite, with the 435 and 425 respectively, other than that they also added a dedicated SD card slot. Other than this I don't really need much. I read a lot, listen to a lot of music and watch Youtube videos and need a lot of storage, I don't game or take pictures for that matter. The SD400 stacks up ok after 2+ years just lags a little from now and then.
Now as per trend, Xioami most probably will launch the Redmi Note 5 in January. And I personally love the Note 4 and A1. My primary concern is if I buy the Note 4 now, will it stack up well till mid 2019 or so, or should i wait for the Note 5 or should I get the new Y1 though the latter has an 5.5" HD and not a FHD display which I feel I need but the 435 might age well.
I've a question also - After rooting, can I remove pre installed apps and still get official updates ?
Any advice is appreciated.
Wait for redmi note 5 snapdragon.
want dual camera then wait for 5... or else our rn4 is ready to serve...though if you can wait it'll always be better...so if u can wait do so or else gget rn4 coz miui9 update is also here...as for unistallin bloatware, of course u can..updates come as downloadable zip files flashable through twrp
Go for the mi note 4 64gb to get good storage both internal and external but it will be with miui.
And if you like stock android and quick updates from google then go for mi a1.. But still almost end of 2017 i would suggest to wait for redmi note 5..

if you can wait for rn5
In case it's urgent:
Look if you need better camera and don't care about battery go for mi a1
And if you're a heavy user like me and an average camera is enough for you then go for rn4 also it has better development support for now.
Please hit thanks button if I helped!

Can anyone recommend a better phone for €240?

It's nearly Christmas and I'm looking for a gift for my mum. For the past 4 years she's been using a Samsung Galaxy s3 and has been reluctant to upgrade, though at this point it's become so temperamental that Santa's gonna put his foot down and get her a new phone
I love my pocophone, she loves the photos I take with it and I've got a chunk of cash burning a hole in my pocket. I've seen the 128 gb version new for €240 which seems a no brainer
MIUI is no harder to use than the antiquated junk on her s3 and she'll love the 2 day battery life
My question to you good people is:
I haven't been watching the other phones on the market. Is there anything that competes seriously in the same price range? I'd rather not get her anything second hand as Santa still doesn't recycle, surprisingly enough
Thanks for any suggestions
I was hoping for the note 10 / cc9 pro but I'd say other than the camera it is worse and costs 450€, like wtf. The only thing which the poco is lacking in my opinion is nfc. If she is not going to use it she'll be perfectly fine with the phone. Ah and ghost touches. Lets hope that there are no fts panels around anymore or whatever the reason for that is.
I would say the Poco F1 might be overkill. Go checkout the Redmi Note 7 or Redmi Note 8 plenty fast and also very good camera. Might be a bit cheaper and will work just as good.

I miss NFC too, but mum wouldn't know what to do with it! Agreed about the note 10. Wondered about getting her a Redmi Note 8, but I gather the camera lets it down

Perhaps you're right - any opinions of the camera?
I guess the battery life would be huge too, given the processor
The Moto One Action And One Vision are pretty good fones...

If she has an S3 now she will be over the moon with the Redmi Note 7 or 8 camera, my colleague was really happy with the pictures. A serious advantage over the S3 in darker wintertime etc. Also the speed of the camera is a lot faster. You can also install Gcam on them without rooting or modding them which is also great if you want to get her into photography.
When it comes down to battery life, yup, both phones are really amazing.
I also own a Redmi Note 5 pro and to be honest and fair, the processor in the Poco F1 is overkill for what I do. The Redmi Note 5 already handles everything more than fast enough without any waiting. Click and it's there, no frustration or lag. The 7 and 8 even have faster cpu's so no worries on that front.
Just some advice if you buy for your mother (my mother has a Redmi Note 5 pro also, guess how that happened ). What I did was order a glass screen protector and some cases. I guess for 20 euro on Aliexpress you are more than settled. Giving her the phone is really nice but giving it completely protected and usable is a must and she will really like that.
Redmi Note 8 pro or Mi 9 lite
I followed the above recommendations and bought a Redmi note 8
It arrived this week
It's great! She's gonna love it!
(Unfortunately I got it from an AliExpress seller meaning I was hit for another chunk of vat - should have bought it from eglobalcentral where I got my f1; they ship from within the eu)
Thanks for the advice peeps!
Interesting to note the feel of it - felt at least as well put together as my pocophone. Obviously a tiny bit of lag noticeable here and there, but it was minimal - though I saved it the burden of trying PUBG on it!
fones €240
Realme note 5 pro
Nokia 6.x
Mi8
xiaomi A3 (but ram is only 4gb , however xiaomi Cc9e chinese version has 6gb, camera result is not so good)
y7 (amazing camera)
and ofcourse
Galaxy M30 ! (or if you can go €300) (m30s 6/128 variant is something you should seriously check out)
Go with Redmi Note 8 Pro
As i strongly believe she doesn't require anything like Snapdragon 845

Poco F1 or Redmi ?

I know, on paper, its no contest, But I am trying to decide between Redmi Note 8 and Poco F1. The difference between them is only £40
These are the important factors for me, the first 4 are must haves.
Good Battery life
Good Custom ROM support (now and future)
Headphone socket
SD Card
Notification LED
Reasonable Screen
Reasonable performance, (no gaming and was content with Redmi 5 Pro 4Gb Snapdrgon 636 until it broke)
I know the Poco F1 is much higher spec, but I dont really like the look (ugly cut out at the top and big bezel at the bottom). Plus because Redmi 8 is newer, I thought maybe better support for custom roms, in the future.
What do you think ?
I just bought my mum a Redmi note 8. Gotta say, it's a really nice phone for the price. She loves it
The F1 beats it pretty much all round though - note 8 has (arguably) slightly better battery life, the ir blaster is a nice gimmick and you can get an NFC version of the note 8 (a feature which I really miss), though that one doesn't have a notification light
I'd suggest you wait a couple of months for the note 9, but I suspect you'd still be better getting an F1!
The Poco F1 wins on nearly every spec. CPU,Graphics, BT, Memory, etc. The only problem with it, is that huge notch, large chin and bezels scream 2018 (in my mind).
Thanks for letting me know about the Redmi Note 9, seems like its imminent
My fear is that all Redmi phones will follow the Redmit 8 pro and have a mediatek chipset, rumoured below. That will kill chance of custom roms,. noones interested developing for Mediatek,

That's true, that the note 8 pro has a mediatek soc, but it's supposed to be very good. If rooting is your thing (used to be mine but I just don't have time these days - plus I can live with MIUI on my f1)
Still it will be outperformed by the F1, plus the RN 8pro will likely cost a good bit more than the F1
The F1 is not likely to get more first party firmware upgrades though. If rooting is your thing, get an f1 and have fun for as long as the battery lasts (the specs should hold up for 3 or 4 years)
Or save up and get the F2 when it launches (assuming it's not a turkey)
I usually always go for function over looks. Just abit background, it was my Redmi Note 5 pro *(Whyred) which recently died on me. Its a 636 Chipset and had 4Gb of RAM. And for me, I had zero performance issues with it for 18 months. I guess I am a light user. Thats why, on balance the Redmi 8 might be better for me (looks etc).
Just a quick one, no definites of course, but the Redmi note 9 seems imminent ? i.e March ish ?
I do get what you are saying about custom roms and time. However, I dont mind,

I do get what you are saying about custom roms and time. However, I dont mind,

Poco X2 would be a great choice for you.:good:
Redmi note8 pro is on MediaTek Gaming chip! with more Ram,
both are on LCD
however poco has advantage of many Custom roms! kernels etc where i don't think with note 8 pro you will enjoy this !
check xda forums for note 8 pro for custom roms and kernel status!
Kcal is must on lcd to to fix color saturation!
