    pre-installed whats app stuck and can't remove or replace. Help!

    I have a Redmi 3 with MIUI 8 stable 8.0.1 (LAICNDG). There's a version of Whats App that I've been using for years that I think came preinstalled (It has a lock on the icon). Problem is that now it opens and stays frozen on the Google Drive backup page. Then it won't let me backup (I'm not able...

    How To Update Stable Rom?

    Thanks Kicksomeazz. Using the unlock tool I applied to unlock my phone as you suggested. It's been almost 2 weeks and I haven't heard anything from Xiaomi. Does anyone know if that is because I have an unofficial ROM on my phone? Will they tell me if I've been rejected? So, if that doesn't...

    Is Redmi 3 Fake If Box Has No Authentication Label?

    I recently bought my Redmi 3 pro phone at a legitimate store. It came with a fake ROM which I eventually got updated by the store. Now I see that there can also possibly be a fake phone. There is no authentication label on the Redmi 3 box. Does that mean it's a fake phone? I ran the MI...

    Hi I want to install the latest stable ROM for MIUI 8 on my Redmi 3 pro which I understand is xiaomi.eu_multi_HM3_V8.0.1.0.LAICNDG_v8-5.1.zip available here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591000424961218. Is that correct? So far as I know, my phone is locked and not rooted. How do I...

    New Redmi 3 Pro Problems

    Thanks for all the help. Ok, so I went back to the store and screamed at them :-) a little and they agreed to install a better ROM. For some reason they installed MIUI 7.4 by Manhlt 6.5.12 Beta. Everything seems to be working well. What a difference!They apparently used Super SU to do it because...

    New Redmi 3 Pro Problems

    Wow, that sounds mucho complicado. I'm hesitant to try it. I see above that fmcouto recommends: Unlock your bootloader first Install TWRP Install the HM3 6.6.30 rom available in Rom download tab Has anyone had success with that approach?. If it works, is there any downside to not getting an...

    New Redmi 3 Pro Problems

    Miiquelbrazil thanks for responding. So with the ROM I have now I can use MI PC suite to flash and install the last official stable global ROM and then everything should be fine after that?

    New Redmi 3 Pro Problems

    Thanks for the response. If I try to install a new ROM is there any chance I will ruin my brand new phone? What does "not very official" mean? Is my ROM produced by MI? Is it bootlegged? Do I need to unlock the bootlocker to download an official global stable from MI? Also if I manually...

    New Redmi 3 Pro Problems

    Hi I found this thread and am in exactly in the same position as Goran. I bought my Redme 3 pro last week from a legitimate store and have exactly the same bugs! The only thing I have to add is that my phone is full of crapware. In settings under MIUI version it says MUIU 7.9 Stable 7.9.2...
