Hmmm.... About my order with Simder.. Something is wrong.

I called the guy in the shop. He said don't know anything and beyond his control about purchase via Lazada..

So, I called Lazada. Lazada said the item was indicated as Picked Up on 26th December by Ninjavan... But after 4 days from 26th December, I see no ninja until know and that my order status remained as In Processing! This conflicting information/status from both sides really confused me! Cannot be taking so long for ninja to show up, right!

Called back simder again to tell them what Lazada has told me...

Now, both sides are investigating my order....WTF lor..!

At the same time, my ah girl is breathing down my neck, keep asking me where is her Mi Max 128 is going to be delivered... Siao liao...

the most you can only disable certain system apps,only on miui 7.
if you're on miui 8, you can't get to disable it.

unless you root the phone.


and for those who want to try root, you can try Google for kingroot. do it on your phone. try it at your own risk. can be able to do full unroot.

i tried kingroot. didnt work. haha

You should just deal with Lazada CSO.
My MiMAx also from Simder, is quite similar. Only show In Process, and suddenly one day the ninja guy appeared at my door step. Next the tracking status change to Delivered. Totally skipped the shipped status.

Ahh! I see..

WTF leh.. Simder or Ninjavan never follow proper SOP..

Now, I'm waiting for Lazada to conduct its investigation and reply.

Aliexpress...Not the cheapest but...don't bother too much about those tiny differences lah!

This is the 0.3mm clear tpu case hat I have ordered. Left Shenzhen already and on its way to Singapore now!

0.3M TPU Clear case

got it too! nice

 

[yusoffb01]

don't think thin cases protect much if it falls

 

[kelvinti]

don't think thin cases protect much if it falls

Not for heavy impact fore sure!

However, it does provide good protection against knocks and light drop if the impact points is at the sides and the at the four corners and yet keeping the slim profile of Mi Max as much as possible.

Ah Max give me headache most of the time...I used to charge phone only when battery low to 5%...this Ah Max... I charge every two days.. But somehow it still left more than 15% till 11pm after two days of usage... Very headache indeed..

I suggest you should leave the screen on whole day,

Ahh! You are a BBF.......Bad Friend Forever LOL!

I suggest you should leave the screen on whole day,

Mi Max IPS screen still can leave on whole day, you try that on AMOLED screen phones confirm burn in. I use my previous Note 2 for timer only end up burn in the timer circle.

1) download the recovery for xiaomi.(rename the filename to recovery)
2) if your PC does not have the adb folder, download the adb driver.

put these files under same adb folder.


3) download the supersu zip and transfer it to a SDcard instead of into your phone storage.
4) download the xiaomi unlock tool and install it.

5) under your phone settings, switch on USB debugging and OEM unlock.
6) hit volume down and power button at the same time. then connect the USB cable to the PC.
7) open the xiaomi unlock window ,log in with your xiaomi account and then unlock. maybe you have to wait a few days for the unlock code from xiaomi.

if no problem,
8) over at the adb folder,open the windows command line by hitting the shift key and right click your mouse,type
1)fastboot devices
2)fastboot flash recovery recovery.IMG

by now, you should have flash the twrp recovery into the phone.
hold volume up with power button till the phone vibrates.
if the display shows a normal phone logo with black background, means your bootloader is not unlocked yet.

if not, congrats.
go ahead and swipe the button to allow modification. go to install, choose the SD card storage and locate the supersu.zip

after that, reboot system.
go playstore and download root checker to check is your phone rooted.
