Thanks look tempting ! I thought my 12hr of SOT is impressive enough and you got 24HR !!!!!!

Just to be sure, we will be flashing this:
xiaomi.eu_multi_MIMAX2_V9.0.1.0.NDDCNEI_v9-7.1.zip (Noticed it's still 9.0.1.0 and not the latest 9.0.3.0 base?)
or
sourceforge xiaomi.eu_multi_MIMAX2_7.12.21_v9-7.1.zip (is this 9.0.3.0 base?)

I've TWRP and rooted, so just format data, and install the zip and supersu/magisk after that for root ?

I have just bought my Mi max 2 from qoo10 - Newstar ,

Xiaomi Mi Max 2/ 6.44 inch display/ 4GB
+64GB/2.0GHz Snapdragon 6...
Color:Black (RARE) / Capacity:4GB+64GB(+S$10)
Safety Mark Approved Plug::Yes(+S$4.90) / Case:Rubber Case Transparent(+S$8.90)/ FREE Tempered Glass:Yes / Warranty:Free 1 Month Store Warranty ,

self collected for $292.80

You could use that as a benchmark to compare
the casing and the plug was optional , the $10 was for the colour black ,gold will be cheaper

there is one at shopee for black 64gb at $275 with no add on but comes with 6 months warranty export set

I'm a light user. just browsing the internet and listening to music. even browser I'm not using the default one,I'm using UC mini ver 8.8 as it consumes much lesser RAM and power.

for the ROM, the file name is xiaomi.eu_multi_MIMAX2_V9.0.1.0.NDDCNEI_v9-7.1.zip
copy it to your phone storage and flash. I factory reset the phone before flashing. and install SuperSU after that.

Wow it's a little extreme right :)

How is the GPS accuracy ? It claimed to be optimized for Europe. I use my phone to navigate a lot, so can't do without it.

my usage all along is light.
about Google components, I don't really rely on it that's why I find it irritating to run in the bg.unless I want to grab/uber.
and
GPS should not be a disappointment.

Did you restore the TitaniumBackup folder into internal storage?

This is what I normally do:
restore TitaniumBackup folder into internal storage
install all my apps
only choose to restore data via Titanium Backup

Question is can they still get the spare part by that time.
My friend ASUS PC also under their extended warranty. One day the SSD cache module bad an PC unable to boot. They just remove it and let the PC boot but much slower speed. They will not replace it, as PC is workable.

Hi, anyone can recommend any tempered glass screen protector that covers the whole screen without the dots? Have some credits left in Qoo10 after purchasing giftcards to buy Mi Max 2.
