Order faster bro. The longer u wait, the longer it takes and longer to flash. Create a miaccount and get permission to unlock boot loader first.

I waited for the phone then cover then screen protector then unlock permission until I lazy to flash and use the hp. Sleeping in my drawer for more than a week.

Why need to flash after buying phone? Should be able to use right? Of is flash to latest rom better

If want to flash to Dev or China stable rom need to unlock bootloader?

 

[Snowblind]

If ur hp came with default rom, no need to flash. Mine was a vendor rom with popups appearing everytime I unlock the phone. On of the guys in the forum mentioned no need to unlock bootloader. I'm not sure if need or no need.

Last night, I unlocked, rooted, wiped out the os, went through many guides and finally flashed the correct os. 2nd time during after many many years. Will post the links later tonight. Finished at 2am last night.

Better factory reset the phone and make sure you are on official China rom.

I don't think you can use the vouchor. Qoo10 always give vouchor but cant use it on most of the things.

Yes that is correct. Just called Singtel. They are not able to tell whether the phone had make any call to malicious service. Guess had to wait for month end billing.

Confirm can use for simder. They are currently not on any time deal.

Gpgt. (Fyi i have not taken the $50 coupons thus using the $10 voucher to show that it accepts coupons.

 

[i1magic]

anybody feels that this phone works much better on 3g than on 4g?
sometimes i can be on 4g but there won't be a response when i'm surfing the net, on 3g the response is immediate

Somebody says that set the "Protocol" under phone APN to "IPV4" only will have better speed.

Could you test it out and feedback here?

seems like there'll be a different ROM for SD 650 / 652
any news yet on the model to be released for india (global)?

 

[maxlovely]

The link I posted is China rom , no global rom yet but I guess you are referring to the upcoming global rom as mi max releasing in India on 30 Jun.
I think flashing to global will clear the phone data but I not 100% sure about it.
If you upgrade from global miui7 to global miui8 through the updater, I quite sure data will not be lost.

Yes, diff processor have their own rom. My best guess is 16gb version sd650 for India market.
