I would love to but this is working so perfectly right now that I would like to use this for a while, at least in the time period while I review it. Probably won't have to wait long even after its official release

How did you confirm that it's 100% original?

Sent from my SM-A9100 using PW Forums mobile app

Checked it thoroughly myself and compared it against original one too. Plus got it from a trusted source.

How much ill have to pay for exchanging my s6 (9mnths warranty) remain. With s6 edge plus ??

Sent from my SM-G920I using PW Forums mobile app

1. G920I doesn't have warranty here.

2. I'd say about 20-25k at least. For a good condition, almost brand new kinda phone.

Source: I used to have an S6. Now have the edge plus.

By the look of things, probably never!

Local manufacturers (Actually assemblers) won't let Xiaomi enter in our Market...
As I stated earlier, no one would buy their ancient garbage MT6582s you see in almost all Qmobiles when consumers can get an upper mid range phone for the same price...
Xiaomi will literally wipe out the likes of Q mobile in a matter of months...
And considering the fact that each and every Pakistani Tech blog runs on funds provided by Q Group, Xiaomi's arrival is next to impossible...
I'm saying it openly that every comment I post against Qmobile on "WhatMobile" gets deleted within minutes by the site moderators! Same is true about various other sites, so apparently Q mobile fund these sites! Even PhoneWorld post mostly Qmobile reviews and and forget about rest of the brands...
Tells something about Q's monopoly and dictatorship, now doesn't it!
Q is like Pak Suzuki of smartphone business... Ever wondered how PS was proudly selling pathetic Mehrans at a premium price for two decades up until now when they're planning on replacing it with a 660cc Modern Car? They would've sold them for another two decades if Japanese Imports hadn't made their way in our Market...
Same goes to AHL Motorcycles... Now Japanese Yamaha is giving their CGs and Deluxe a tough time...

It's all monopoly, brother... There's a good reason behind why Kawasaki, Nissan, KIA, Hyundai and Mazda and a few other well known brands were kicked out of Pakistan! We didn't give them any sort of taxation relief, but on whose order? Whose directions?
Well, we all know who were behind all this!
Secondly, PTA hasn't approved Xiaomi Handsets so far, according to CheezMall... So, needless to say, we have Q's Black Sheep in there too!
Instead of National gain, we think about our own personal gain... The whole nation can just go to hell!
Good Day!

You stole my words bro
And u know I bought my Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 from ALLMYTECH but later on they removed Xiaomi mobiles from their website and the reason they told me was that PTA started homing on them and were given pressure to remove Xiaomi mobile from their website
And I m pretty much sure that these pathetic brands must have pumped PTA to start campaign against Xiaomi and ALLMYTECH

Appreciate it, brother!
As many of you would be aware, Daraz.pk is selling Xiaomi Accessories and Power Banks but not Smartphones! The reason is same, PTA...!
But we can't lay it all on PTA, it's our AWAM to blame too!
We see literate people praising Qmobile and raving about how they're offering Quad Core Smartphones at such cheap rates when compared to Samsung!
And majority of illiterate people are hypnotized by foreign celebrities on their advertisements and start to believe that the products are as good as their ads!
Hence, Q Group scored a hefty 10 Billion in profits, last year!
And we are well aware that money can buy ANYTHING now a days including The Law!

Now I'm not 'completely' dissing Qmobile, they've some good phones there too, like those rebranded Gionee's (You can spot them by their "Amigo Launcher" or UI) and these phones are definitely better than Sammy for the given price!

But when you look at a Xiaomi Phone's specs sheet, nothing comes close! A 12,000 Rupee Xiaomi can hold a candle against 28,000 Rupee Samsung J7!
Well, lets hope for the best!

Help needed: Mobile Infinix Hot 2
The mobile was running perfectly on MM for months. Yesterday there was a 5.5 mb update, I downloaded and installed it. It restarted and started to install the update but at the end it failed. The mobile was working ok till morning. I ran out of battery, when I charged and turned on, there was only black screen showing singals, battery and back button only. It is not doing anything else. I did facotry reset. After connecting to wifi (it is not giving 'skip' option) when I log in with google account, it fails saying that you have to use the id being already used in mobile. I am using the same id. I also tried 3-4 more ids but the same message appears and it comes back to screen where it asks for the google account.

Not so familiar with Infinix, but here is how i fixed stuck Infinix Zero 3 once. I tried a lot, but that was only one thing that actually helped.

http://infinixmobility.com/support/

Step 1 - open link and select Software updates
Step 2 - select Hot 2
Step 3 - Try wiping cache partition first (update guide for TF card explains how to do it)
Step 4 - reflash software using their flash tool.

Rest @vagabondpiper can help better.

It will not show skip option, since its factory reset protection system (re-activation lock). So it needs to verify your google account associated with that phone, but i think failed update corrupted something related to that due to which the bug is not letting to verify. Full flashing is required IMO.

[s15]

Reset password of that exact google account associated with that phone, maybe you are forgetting about id or password.

I changed the password. I also checked it on laptop. Id n password are correct. But I guess I need to flash new rom now.

Hahaha, it will still take a couple of days to compile. A few things that I can tell you so far:

1. Terrible camera.
2. Loud but pathetic speaker.
3. Excellent performance and RAM management.
4. Adaptable storage is a really good feature.

my friend is coming from China already he bought two flip covers and one battery back cover for my redmi note 2
Now I m thinking that I should request him to bring some mobile for me or my family so which one should I order ? Although Mi5 seems the most appealing option but none of us want to play games or some heavy duty requirements
So should I order Redmi 3 or Redmi note 3??? And remember Camera is my last rather least requirement

Redmi 3 is best then. Its more than adequate for your requirements. Rather than 1 MI5, getting 3-4 Redmi 3 are better.

[s15]

Note 3 is also equally better
