MIUI itself has its screen lock widget called "Lock". Apply it on the Dock and you are good to go without the need of installing 3rd party app. :)

There are also many other widgets (for Toggle functions) that you can utilize them in a nice and uniformed icon size and shape. :)

How do you get weather info under the time and date?
I still do not know much about customisation. hahaha..

Also, I noticed that my Swiftkey does not auto cap the 1st word. It only auto caps after I place a period "." in front. Any idea what I should look at?

Firstly, open the weather app and set current location or Singapore as a whole.

Then, long press Menu key., then select one of the 2 Clock widgets that has a tiny weather reading below the time. :)

As for SwiftKey, you must enable it. See the 2 settings?

You can change the SwiftKey keyboard size, vibrate or sound typing and etc. :)

Please go play around with all the SwiftKey settings.

Thanks for the clock guide!

As for Swiftkey, I already have it enabled with the settings.
My problem is with the start of a new sentence. When you activate any field for typing, keyboard appears, but swiftkey is in small caps mode.

For example on a newly activated field, this will be what appears if I type (minus the ""):
"test. This is a test. Yay."

So for the first word "test", the first letter is in small caps. Only after a period "." appears, then the auto cap kicks in --> Letters T and Y are capped like they should -- "This is a test. Yay"

I don't know why this is the case. hahaha... :s22:

That's strange indeed! :eek: Very spooky ! :s8:

How about uninstall and reinstall the Swiftkey to see how it goes?:s8:

Anybody has opinions to get Mi Max 128gb from gearbest? it seems very cheap - $310+
Click to expand...

Gearbest prices are in USD, so don't be fooled.

I pre-ordered a phone from them in August, sent out only in November. End up the phone never arrive and I had to file a Paypal claim to get back my $ 'cos they said it's not their fault and don't want to refund me fully. Excuse given: "Shipper destroyed the item as it couldn't be delivered." Duh...
Won't be getting anything of value from them anymore.

But thanks to them, I ended up getting the Mi Max instead! :s13:

Thanks for the heads up, blur me it's USD...
So the cheapest place to get 128gb is Lazada with the coupons stacked?

Wah lau, I just change my phone case to a thin soft silicone one (weighs 21g) and weigh my phone again and it is only 238g!!

Bare Mi Max weighs 215g with 1 nano SIM and 1 microSD card.

The big bulky case which I use weighs a whopping 76g!!

Do I need to request unlock code from xiaomi first before I perform the steps on this link ?

http://en.miui.com/thread-305827-1-1.html

Also on the above link there are 4 roms listed. Should I use one of these roms or do I just find the global rom? Where can I download the global rom for 128gb variant?

Please bear with the noob questions. Paiseh much.

Sent from Xiaomi MI 4I using GAGT

I believe you don't need an unlock code for flashing.

And you can download the roms here: http://en.miui.com/type-94-736.html
