Just try out backup feature in XiaoMi.
However, the data is 452MB.
How to remove it ?

Also, any way to store the photo taken with the camera into a SD card ? Couldn't found the setting after finding so long :s11:

Thanks.

After you put in the SD card, new photos taken should be saved to the SD card, no? To check, open the Explorer (like the file manager in MS Windows), change to List view and then select the storage you want to see by pressing the down arrow icon in the upper left corner. Photos taken using the camera are in DCIM/camera.

Is there a way to place a short-cut on the home screen to point to a specific directory or website ?

To add shortcut to a website, try this:

open default browser, go bookmark tab, long press the page you want to add, select Add shortcut to home from the sub-menu.

To add other shortcuts to your homescreen, try this:

Menu -> Edit Home screen -> Widgets, from here look for the things you want.

As I continue to use REDMI 1, I get frustrated by the lack of storage space. Forced to delete my apps which is essential to my work, not forgetting the games that I had made in-app purchase.


Was intending to pass this to my son, but now, I think only can give it to my dad who only needs a bigger button screen cos my son's game data is larger than mine.


Now waiting for Redmi 1S & Note. Hope these 2 models does not disappoint me.

That was one and important reason why I skipped the Redmi 1, waiting for Redmi 1S, if not, Note ~
#prayfor1S and also, #prayforNote

This is a known issue they are resolving it, for the meantime the workaround is either you delete off the previous OTP or set Google Hangout as your default SMS:D
