Thanks, I will just have to get a new micro telkom sim tomorrow.

So it seems the sim was the problem. After doing a sim swap, my 4X is working with my Telkom LTE data.

Great stuff Voodoo!

@Shaun108, how are you finding the Mi6?

 

[The_Librarian]

LTE = biggendataslurp = biggenOOB

But nice to have fast internet.

I remember back in the day (I sound like an ouballie) I used to keep my ye olde Xperia X10 Mini on EDGE every day and switch to 3G when I needed fast internet for downloads or browsing.

I also remember with my old Nokia 6234 I used to use the stock browser (no Chrome back in those days) with images turned off to save data as data bundles were unheard of in my circles

With those minuscule/nonexistent data bundles, you absolutely had to...

Mi updated this morning

At least 've got a baseline regarding battery endurance on my phone, if it lasts longer, then I'll be - otherwise I'll be if battery life is impacted.

I bought a phone from Gearbest recently as well as a screen protector and phone case. These items are all going to the exact same address but I received a message informing me that the city and zip code does not match on the order for the phone.

How do I know I sent them the correct city and zip or how do I fix this?

Then also, should I request an invoice for the items or how does customs work regaring their fees?

 

[PhireSide]

You can raise a support ticket on their website. I forget the exact spot where it is but it will be to do with your order info somewhere. I had issues using my actual zip code - 6045 - but I used the generic 6001 code and it worked.

I have never needed to request an invoice so I cannot give you any advice there! Good luck

i had the same issue recently, dhl is the problem, their system did not recognize the local areas zip code here in pretoria, had to reply to that email and just tell them to use the zip code for pretoria, so just give the the zip code for your city and not your suburb then it should move along

Interesting comparison...

 

[The_Librarian]

Battery life seems to be the same after the recent update.

Can anyone recommend a straight Android rom for the Note 4? Tired of the hassles I keep having with the Xiaomi one (apps not working properly, etc)

Baaaah, not. Will have to give it a bit of time to note any unusual patterns.....

I'm still getting the "media file doesn't exist" problem using WhatsApp dual apps. Anyone find a fix for this?

I think I sent a request to unlock many months ago, still waiting.
