Ic. If local set still got hope. China set, i think it will be hard for xm sg to help.

Maybe you have to buy 'original' battery from china sites anyway...

I am hoping Singapore XM will be willing to sell me a piece. But to be safe I also ordered one from tmall le, picked one with higher seller rating to be kiasee. Hopefully the air shipping can reach me fast... :(

The power-on button is not responsive. Have to press and hold for sometime. But it works. I wonder is there a setting for this or a hardware problem ?

Seek your opinion / advice. My buttons (power and volume) need to be pressed harder for it to respond. Should I send it in for repairs ?

this is the worst mi phone i've bought.
the three keys on the lcd screen failed to work twice in about 2 mnths, luckily still under local warranty.
and the battery life is terribly poor.
no choice but bought the redmi note3 from official store.

Just checked. I am still on 7.3.1.0

You can download the official 7.3.3 Global Stable ROM from the official link three posts above. Then use the Updater tool and select "Choose update package".

Anyone updated to 7.3.3 already? Any comments?

I have upgraded since Monday. No issues for me.

But then again I am a fairly careful user. I only install mainstream apps, no weird ones, and I don't click on random browser links.

Some have received the OTA update for 7.3.3; the above is only necessary if you are not one of the "chosen" ones but you would like the update now.

Just remember to delete the downloaded ZIP file after the update by using the Explorer app. It takes up about 1GB of valuable space.

Thank you for your reply. Can you help me to confirm if the music player is shown when you pull down the notification bar?

7.3.1.0 somehow removed it...
