A locked or unlocked bootloader is what gives you access to *********root.********* *********Root********* is another big word in the Android community. If you *********root********* a device, it means you have *********super user********* access or *********administrator********* access to the operating system that runs on your phone.

Oh root. I see. Doesn't seem like too bad then. So it's just because cn there sell cheaper than other areas with global rom, that's why they sell cheaper here?

Once rooted means you got to cautious of your device security yourself. Some shaddy sites will try to install apps into your system to gain access. If not sure of whatbis to be done, better dont root.

cn set supposed to be sold for domestic market, definitely cheaper than global set. only more leche to use for cn cause all in chinese + no google play store, nid to install via china app.

so ppl root the phone to install global software but u nid to unlock the phone "bootloader", flash it with global rom, then lock back the phone. if left unlocked, ur phone is open to any hacker attack.

Once rooted means you got to cautious of your device security yourself. Some shaddy sites will try to install apps into your system to gain access. If not sure of whatbis to be done, better dont root.

yeap, root liao must lock back the bootloader. then safe.

I find this quube app bugged as fug and really stupid. Search for an item and it displays all available listings. But for some of them when you click and go into the listing itself, you get error message saying its either sold out or not available currently.

Also, when you add item to cart and want to checkout, sometimes they will charge you an insane amount for delivery(like 16-17 coins) even though the listing states free delivery. You will have to clear and re-add to cart a few times before the correct delivery charge is shown.

Lastly, items from different sellers cannot be combined into a single cart/transaction. Meaning lets say you have 5 items you want to buy from 5 different sellers, you will make to make 5 separate transactions. Feels quite dumb and too much of a hassle.

You can't lock back the bootloader for xiaomi china set already. You will bricked the phone. Xiaomi don't want people to install global rom on china set as china set is meant for their china markets. So you will have to stay with unlock bootloader if you get a china set.
