I bought my latest at Everyshop 2 years ago. They had it for R100 less than MIA, and included a screen protector and case, which MIA were charging ±R300 extra for.

This is way of topic, but I haven't heard the name Everyshop for months now, wonder how they are doing.

I'd like to try Lineage OS and others like it, but the bootloader unlocking process not keen to go through again (like I used to a few years ago) + I've not seen a single dedicated custom ROM for the Redmi 9T (not the Note 9T), last I looked ....

..... so don't want to brick it for no good reason while it's still pretty smooth & not causing me problems + always unsure if banking apps, for example, will work on a given custom ROM.


I hope mine lasts a year to two more (have had it around 2 years), but the 9T is notorious for "dead boot" - well documented in the relevant GSM Arena thread.

At least apps get updates, including security, for browsers (Brave, Chrome etc.), so though I'd like system-wide security ones, I won't ditch the phone because they've stopped (to now at least).


EDIT - looked at that GSM thread for 1st time in a while & someone commented on lots of ROMs available through Telegram, but I don't even use it so will continue with stock - less hassle (to me) all-round.

I used crdroid on my redmi 9T and I got OTA updates up until I upgraded to my new poco f5 on which I have also installed crdroid.

It seems sites don't get updated anymore and most are using telegram.

I'm guessing they have had to revert to only being an importer and distributor now because the physical Xiaomi stores, HifiCorp, Incredible, cellular networks etc were getting annoyed / are selling enough volume to make the online site redundant.

Pretty sucky. Recently bought a 10C from their site for one of my mobile fitment teams and delivery was quick and free.
