On a Sunday? In Aiur? Nee sies man, have some respect!

I may be understanding it wrong but was it propped up on its side and then it fell down 90* onto it's screen?

Exactly.

Cape Town.

Should I now courier it to Mia in JHB or is their a repairing service in cape town for Xiaomi?

I moved my audio system below my computer desk then I had to insert the wires for the speakers into the speaker plugs, but it was too dark to see anything.
I then used the torch and propped it up against the receiver, made the speaker wire straight then the phone flipped 90 degrees on it's face. When I checked again the bottom half of the screen was cracked.

Like wtf man???? I have wooden floor, it isn't even a hard floor.

Interesting that MIA don't have the Redmi Note 5A, Redmi 5A and Redmi Note 4 on the site anymore.

Maybe making way for the 6 series of devices? Their site is a mess. I really struggle to find my way around it some days

My RN5 Pro has been at customs since last week Wednesday with no movement since. I sent through the invoice to Aramex, but I just got told to be patient :(
 
I hope so they do finally bring in the 6 series of phones before I make the change to Nokia.

I think Aramex are doing Amazon deliveries hence they are bogged down at customs.

Clearly SA customs is the biggest ballache in all of this :wtf:
 
Have any of you sent your phone in to be repaired with a custom ROM running? Or do you usually go back to stock before sending it in?

Power button on my Note 4 is faulty AF. Tried working around it, but old habits die hard.
