Anybody on Global Beta 7.5.19?

Problem : When I play back video from WhatsApp, it lags. Anybody encounter similar issue?

Updated to Global Beta 7.5.25.

But still got the same issue with playback of video from WhatsApp. Any of you encounter this too?

I've just joined the club...and flased 7.5.11 on the phone. New to Android 7.0.

When I tap the menu, it shows a list of recent apps, after which I can tap X to free up memory. However, it doesn't show the RAM available at all.

Is this normal? My older MIUI7/Android6 phone shows "1.xGB of 3GB available". This new phone doesn't.

Big welcome, bro!

Hi friends, wanted to check please. I've never used a dual SIM phone before this one, and will be travelling. Next week, using a travel SIM. Is it possible to have both SIMs on, receiving only calls on one and data on the other?

Edit: or for that matter, have both SIMs inside but activate only one?

Can.
You can choose which SIM card to use for data. The other will auto be only used for calls.
To be safe, disable data roaming as well.

Will disabling data roaming do so on a global/ whole of phone basis, I.e., also affect the one for which I want the data on?

Thanks for sharing! The intent here is different though - I actually want my local SIM to be calls only, whilst for the other I'll use the starhub happy traveller for the data.

I assumed your "travel sim" is a data sim from that country.
The phone will be able to tell if your "Travel SIM" is roaming or not. So if it's a SIM card from the country you are travelling to, disabling data roaming will not affect your usage.

If it's a SG SIM with roaming data, then don't disable data roaming.
Just choose the SIM to use for data will do.

Actually, Mi Max camera is damn cmi in low light. However, in day light, indoor or outdoor, It can be damn good! I have no complaint about its camera quality in that scenario.

After all, most of the time (95% of time). We take photo in "High" light , be it indoor or outdoor!

Auto mode (Outdoor):




Auto Mode (Indoor):


Auto mode with Auto-triggered's HDR upon detection:


Auto mode with manual triggered HDR:

Yep, sorry I wasn't clear there. Intent is to plug a Starhub SIM into the phone and use it there. Thanks for the insight!

On a side note, not sure if I've discovered a bug or otherwise. In using the Google search widget I've found that I can't actually type in the link, or the widget crashes.

Anyone has done any research on whether is Mi Max 2 worth it? As in comparing to MI Max 128 GB at 319 vs Mi Max 2 at ard 419 (after discount etc).

Main tussle is whether is it worth the cost difference. Thanks.

Mi Max 2 has a better camera, stereo speakers, higher battery capacity and a better looking bezel. All boils down to preference

Thanks for this. Have this issue of Spotify refusing to advance to the next song unless I open the app, wondering if it's an app issue, or a phone issue, or otherwise.
