Xiaomi Mi 4i

[lolipop]

I'm still pretty used to default andriod having an "app" button like windows start button where all newly installed Application goes.

Desktop should be like quick launch instead of miui dumping everything in desktop.

Any means I could get back similar to regular android way of sorting apps and not everything dump to its main?

Install 3rd party launchers like nova, but like I said, miui doesn't play nice with them.

together with phone is 2A.

Okies, thanks.

And is there a way to show WhatsApp notifications on lock screen? Seems like only new SMS notifications are showing on there.

You need to activate it from settings > notifications > manage notifications > WhatsApp and enable lock screen

Why the sticker at the back never take off?

I'm surprised at the build quality sia. The phone feels quite solid for a plastic phone, almost like the iPhone 5C, Nexus 5, and Moto X. Except the SIM tray though, that still feels pretty cheap. lol. The screen is also good looking too. The phone feels very nice in hand. Still like phones that are 5" or less.

Now to see whether the software is good. I've used it to play Real Racing 3 for a while, but never got too hot or anything. Just slightly warm. But can see a bit of dropped frames in the game. :/

Don't see such option :-(

EDIT: I also have issues with the float notification for phone calls. Sometimes it works, but most of the time it doesn't - it will just take over the entire screen like pre-Lollipop. Any idea why?

it's the "show floating notifications".

I just found a problem - i don't seem to get line notifications for incoming messages... i only get flooded with all the messages when i click on line... anyone got this issue?

Okay, guess I can't turn off the float notification but want it to appear on lock screen, like how I can with Lollipop.

The call floating notification didn't seem to work though I turned it on. Furious!

Regarding LINE messages, I had the same problem. I allow it to autostart and that seems to resolve the issue.

Starting to miss the simplicity of stock Lollipop

anyway way to preview whatsapp notifications in lock screen? It just show how many messages u have in the chat. Eg. "2 messages"
