Xiaomi Mi Max

[1982-1994]

Nope!

An official china rom is a proper one in which it is for the chinese domestic consumers.

It will get official OTA updates wherever you are.

Crappy modified China or global rom are unfinished, unpolished and unpublished rom of Xiaomi. In most cases, the phone has got be to rooted for such installation and that's no good for the security and stability of your phone.

ok then. my 7.3.14 still receives latest update. V8.0.3.0MBCCNDG, just saying.

download miFlash, install it.
and download the ROM for your phone from the dev forum.
off the phone.
hold volume- and then power button together, without release and connect the cable to your PC.
your PC should detect mi max, look at the miFlash and navigate to the ROM you downloaded. click refresh.

Can you check does your unit has any gaps on the sides. Especially the side button areas. The unit I gotten from them has gaps and the screen seems to pop up..

Yeah. Been eyeing on it ever since. But the price was always around 300 for 32 gb.
Wanted to buy from Taobao after the China price cut for Xiaomi, but saw Lazada having promo with 10% discount ($25) and free delivery. Even cheaper than China! So I quickly search and saw this post. Decided to buy and be poisoned! Loving the gold.

sekali, lazada stop selling export sets, and concentrate on local xiaomi sets as their agreement.

technically, can get $210. Last week, $249+ free shipping, less 10% code ($224), or less SCB code $30 ($219/, less 4% shopback -$9 (if new lazada customer).
If consider your ccard rebates (6%), phone costs less than $200.

249 for 32GB cheapest
how to get teh 10% discount on lazada ar

 

[kelvinti]

Bro, intend to get a 32G export set. 1st time buying this china brand, could u help to name a few trustworthy online sellers ? And what is the current miui ROM for this 32G ? Thanks

IMHO, Smartcell has been the most trustworthy!

Currently the Gold color is out of stock.

The silver one is available.

Remember to use a voucher code to further reduce the price. For that, do a search for lazada discount codes or promo codes... It can be as much as $30 discount.

[dcrinz]

What he say is right.
Get the 249 from smartcell. I got gold before it sold out.
Then use their every Friday for this Oct 'Kiasu10' to get 10% capped at $40 for electronics.
Pay through Cashback and get extra.

I think many pages back, some members had mentioned it but never show method. OK la, I will do up the steps now for the benefits for all members.

Basically it is to put the phone to EDL mode (Emergency download mode) and flash using miflash beta. I believe the shops do it this way to flash the phone to "global rom". OK info as per below.....

==============================================
NOTE: TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK.

1. Download the preferred official fastboot rom for the XiaoMi MI Max.

2. Download and install the official miphone aka miflash from here. This will install the neccessary drivers for detection.

3. Download and install the miflash beta from here. This will be used for flashing the fastboot rom. The installer will installed as XiaoMiFlash

4. Unzip the fastboot rom

5. Run the XiaoMiFlash as administrator. Click on select and point it to the root folder of the unzipped fastboot rom. e.g. C:\fastboot_rom_folder_name. After that on the bottom right, check on "clean all" options.

6. On your phone, get to developer mode to enable USB debugging. This step might not be necessary though, but before my phone gotten into boot loop after flashing from Mi PC suite, i did enable.

7. Turn off your phone. Press and hold vol+, vol- and power button to get to EDL mode. Note that the screen will not show anything, you will know it has power on as it will have vibration upon bootup.

8. Connect phone to PC, wait for it to detect and install the necessary drivers. Refresh on XiaoMiFlash and your phone should show up, e.g. COM1. If it does not show up, try refreshing a few times, else disconnect and reconnect your phone.

9. Click on flash and wait. This part a bit scary, you can only see the progress on your computer as the phone screen won't show anything!!

10. After success, unplug and reboot your phone by holding on to the power button. The phone will be setting up itself to the new rom. After which, enjoy the newly flash rom.

==============================================

Cheers!

Thanks..........bookmarked...
