Hey guys, i just spent 3 hours getting my phone back to SG rom after flashing developer rom ( still flashing stuff now ) I wouldnt want it to happen to anyone so i warn all of you guys first, dont flash the developer rom if you have limited knowledge, AFAIK developer rom no gapps so if you flash from sg rom you will not be able to download stuff from play store and such. It will be a hell of a time to get it back to SG rom so i suggest not to try it unless you are prepared for the (possible) consequences

Lol same! I itchy backside flash developer at 11 and got playstore problem long story short spend until4am trying to flash back sgrom...


i manage to get playstore working by downloading the google app which install all the gapps files but what i dont like to the china built in directory in the phone app and also when i delete the default app it will auto install back when restart ,,,, knn itchy hand

 

[whoooo]

Looks like I should refrain from flashing to any ROMs except the official release for non-developers.

Yes unless u need the developer rom else no use as looking for headache only... I flash my note 2 a lot but this is first time kana soft brick

my lesson learn is, yes you can flash yourself, but don't waste time if you don't have a clear picture even after searching for 10mins.

head down to service centre, 10mins done, can still shop shop and makan walk around.

Worth giving up warranty to save S$49? Must make sure it's not TD version also.

 

[shichuanhua]

if u want buy from xiaomi taobao store, shipping will take up another $20 dollars since it's special goods

If its for Mi3, not worth.
It is readily available now...so not worth take the risk

I feel that it's wiser to just get from Xiaomi Singapore online store. Warranty's covered and it's for our local market. You get warranty here plus the support and sharing of many kind brothers to assist and give advice when help is needed.
