Call Lazada hotline to "complain". That will help to push the delivery.

I have experienced that before too. In most cases, it is the delivery guy that take their own sweet time for their own convenience as long as they can meet the deadline of last day of delivery as promised by the sellers.

That delivery firm got a earful from Lazada after that and I have got a $10 Lazada "Apology" voucher for that.

Must be the Ninja Van?

Yes, just use edl mode for reflashing back to official miui rom, it will be clean clean (it will wipe out the twrp). Else if updating xiaomi.eu rom or flashing other customed rom, just use the twrp.

If you don't want root then don't install the supersu in twrp.

OK. Noted that. Thanks.

Finally received my 4/128 mi max from Newstar!

MIUI version:
MIUI Global 8.0 l Stable
8.0.3.0 (MBDMIDG)

The phone prompts for update available to
MIUI V8.1.9.0.MBDMIDI l Stable l 1.3G

Should i go ahead to update? Not intending to root etc..

Tia !

Anyway, I'm surprise why is that those who have gotten their new set with 8.0.3.0 don't get prompted to the latest 8.2.1.0, but instead prompted to 8.1.9.0 only...?

dennizm51 you got yours from newstar too?

kelvinti mine is the same as above(dennizm51) if I go ahead and update to 8.1.9.0, how do i update to 8.2.1.0 later?

I have done the upgrade to 8.2.1.0 successfully. I used the instructions at the en.miui.com from site.

I downloaded the 8.2.1.0 and copied to the downloaded from folder in Mi Max. Run Updater and choose the ROM in the folder. The rest is automatic. Remember to backup your important files first.

Hmmm.....must see if the Mi Max Security / Privacy settings for this app can be changed to bypass the prompt liao.....

You go play around with this app security settings...Start from Security App, then Other Permissions, go to AXA app, and see what can you play around with the security or privacy settings..

Good job! Shib!

Basically, just follow this steps:

> Download the zip file (Recovery rom 8.2.1.0) onto you pc.

> Copy it into the "Download" folder of your Mi Max and then select "Choose update package" from the 3-dots menu in the System Update.

> Browse to that "Download" folder on your Mi Max and follow the next instruction.

Try to install TWRP (twrp.img) to my Mi Max Prime (Bootloader Locked).

C:\adb>Fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'twrp' (16394 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.519s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: Partition flashing is not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.531s

What has gone wrong or missed?

I must unlock bootie first is it?

The app can still install and work as it is. Just that I am uncomfortable with the message.

Pardon me for this question. What does bootloader unlock at en.miui.com/unlock do? Is it same as rooting the phone?

Just got mine last night and flashed it to the latest global rom. Loving it so far except the low volume while on earphones. Any solutions?

Play around with the eq. If still low for your liking no idea liao. Andriod phones the output low especially for headphones.

Compare to iPhone iPad iPod so loud sia. Lol.

at least mine is loud. no need EQ.
even when two earphones are plugged into my phone via the connector, volume is as loud on both.

Must unlock bootloader.

Chey! No wonder lah.

Anyway, mission aborted! Waiting for official 8.2.3.0 since Beta version for Mi Max (Non Prime) is pushing out to random users now...
