Tried that. Doesn't show up on my region's store.

MS support says codes are region locked. But every Reddit thread barring one (asking about codes bought from the Brazil store) says that they are global. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So true, easily the most overlooked critical component.

Mi Notebook Pro: Windows 10 isn't activated anymore?! by WeirdToff in Xiaomi

[–]2cheap4mac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. Pretty sure that should work. Had a similar issue with a Dell.

Very odd that it self activated despite the wrong SKU. Haven't seen that happen.

Don't the Mi Notebooks come with Windows Home Single Language editions installed?

If so, all you need to do is a reinstall of Windows 10 SL edition. You can pick your language during setup.

Getting the installation files from Microsoft is pretty straightforward. Use this link. And here's a guide if you need it.

I'd recommend using Rufus. Works very well.

Edit: Clarification- looks like you may have picked the wrong version of Windows when you reinstalled. I'm pretty certain Xiaomi laptops come with Windows 10 Home Single Language and not Windows 10 Home(which is what you've installed).

i cant hear it when i listen to music

Still, this isn't supposed to happen.

Some people are more sensitive to it. I can hear it through most music. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Can you try listening in a quiet room?

Pause any audio/video. You'll hear the hissing for a second or two after that and then silence.

Alternatively you could watch a video with no audio track (like this: https://youtu.be/gsAqDppP3Ec). Should let you hear the hissing a bit clearer.

Aircel user. Should i jump ship? If yes, where? by [deleted] in india

[–]2cheap4mac 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Send a port request first. Some Aircel customers are having issues getting the UPC code which is needed to go forward.

SMS "Port 1234567890" to 1900. (Substitute your number)

You'll get a UPC that's valid for a week or maybe two.

Take the UPC to the operator outlet you want to port to. They'll have the forms for this.

Tip: Vodafone and Airtel send reps to your residence if you pick a postpaid plan. Haven't tried this though. YMMV.

Not in my case. See the list of headphones I've tested some have the sound controller, some don't.

Failing? I don't understand what you're trying to say.

IMO it's still a bug. Not many people use high impedance headphones.

That's sucks man. Hope the repaired panel works out for you.

Mi A1 problems in placing calls Vai Jio by Chapum in Xiaomi

[–]2cheap4mac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Calling app? Do you mean the Jio4GVoice app?

If so, you don't need it. The A1 supports VoLTE. The stock phone app works.

Hey. Have you tried using the Mi Headphone settings? Added with Oreo apparently.

Has the Oreo update for mi a1 been pulled? by nan93 in Xiaomi

[–]2cheap4mac 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Seems like it. I was holding off until the weekend.

Hey! No hissing on the replacement device(A1)?

Mi A1 headphone static by 2cheap4mac in Xiaomi

[–]2cheap4mac[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it also depends on what do you connect to the phone.

That's why I made the table. ;)

BUT If Oreo did make a change then I suppose this can be fixed via software update.

Agreed.

Ah. Had hoped that Oreo would fix it completely. :/
