The phone hasn't been shipped yet (march 10 is the availability date). My previous orders (tablet, RC stuff mostly) were shipped by singapore post and took 1.5-3 weeks to deliver to scandinavia.

I've ordered this phone from Geekbuying too, some weeks ago they had a lower price on it than anywhere else (219 usd for the 32gb version, its a bit higher now for some reason). They won't have it on stock until 10th of march, that may be some official launch date though. I ordered a couple of...

I've seen a site showing Redmi Note 4 with snapdragon 652 (has double as much a72 cores). I'd think it's just speculation but given the history with redmi note 2-3 it could happen.

I've had 52 orders on aliexpress, all delivered fine, about 8-20 calendar days delivery time, using free / almost free snail mail. The site has a rating system, one just needs to pick sellers with good track records.

After successful unlock, I couldn't install TWRP using the method described in this guide (it looked ok, but I still got into the xiaomi bootloader). The guide here worked fine for me also to install a working twrp: http://myandroidous.blogspot.my/2015/12/twrp-recovery-for-redmi-note-3.html

I'm stuck in twrp "Swipe right to unlock" but nothing works. Anyone has ideas? It happened to me on redmi note 2 too but then I could just remove the battery. Edit: vol up + power helps in such cases

You can't get to the request page again if it's already been submitted.

Turn off syncs you don't need. Also you may want to set this: wlan/advanced settings/only keep wlan on during sleep when plugged in. It multiplied my stand by time.

Indeed, it won't work without a successful unlock request. Ithink the chinese rom is not that bad. 80% of the chinese apps can be uninstalled, and the rest "hidden" in some folder. The google stuff can be installed by the google installer (from the chinese store app). The only thing I'm...

It doesn't have anything to do with the number of letters actually. I got that error message when I posted any characters that were not chinese. So I wrote my text in english, then google translated it to chinese - went through fine like that. Make sure all the characters are chinese and not...

Until further update, just request an unlocking code, then wait some days/weeks/months.

Does that make things more safe? I always had the impression it's the other way around: unlocked + twrp'd phone being less safe than a locked one - even if it's flashed with a custom rom. But it could be that I'm missing something. :) In any case it could be useful to at least consider...

I needed to verify my phone number twice: first when I created an account, then another for binding it to a specific phone. You can give this a shot, it worked for me. Log in to your account on your phone and verify it's found under devices. Then log in on the web, go to messages and click on +...

and/or flashing twrp. maybe that would make more sense :)

unlocking the bootloader seems to be hopeless... Can I install xiaomi.eu rom using this spflash?

I bought a note3 (from goldway) that's shipped with a custom rom based on the official dev rom. It's not that bad, but i plan to migrate to the xiaomi.eu rom eventually. Does it mean it's bootloader is already unlocked? How can I verify this / find out what steps I need to perform from this guide?

What is the codename of redmi note 3?

There is always a better phone some months later. :) The note3 will not turn into trash either just because ie some kickass helio x20 phone comes out next march. For me the metal is a not so good, because I often use my phone in cold, but still I like the idea of new battery size a lot. Maybe I...

Can some of you post prime geekbench results / rom version? With .16 i easily hit 1000/5000, while .22+ roms produce 850/4500. I'm not chasing results usually, but it seems like a quite serious performance bug in newest roms.. or I'm messing something up with my unit?

I got a lot of gapps crashes right after installing. It was resolve by clearing dalvik cache and cache partition, no other issues so far.
