    Ram Utilization

    Good luck...I think availability will be very very limited for the unibody version...and likely have huge markups. When the mix 1 was first launched, 100%+ markup was common in Hong Kong for grey market imports.

    Ram Utilization

    Fresh reboot nothing open, I have usually 3-3.5GB free. I didn't check what was the RAM available after the fresh install though, but if there's 3GB available even with apps installed, I can only imagine the amount is more with 0 installed apps. Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think...

    Gps Lock Issues

    I find Mix 2 GPS much better than my old mi 5 which was on par with oneplus one. With GPS + Galileo + Glonass + Beidou, I get a lock pretty quickly with alot of satellites and much fewer random shifts in position. Of course if you're underground in a bunker lined with 12 inch steel walls...

    Fastboot Unlock Error

    I didn't need to use VPN on my PC for the unlock

    Indeed! And the global stable ROM is now in the MIUI site

    Mix2 is only sold in China as of today. That should change by next week when they launch in Taiwan and HK. That said, requiring a China IP to add a phone to mi account is indeed a bit strange...

    I used the super VPN hotspot on wifi. As to battery life, it's better than my (now 2yo) mi5, but i think it's fairly similar to the mi5 when it was brand new. 400mah more battery but also bigger screen...I think battery life for mix 2 is good enough, the first time I tried going from 100% to...

    I wonder if it's related to the 72 hour thing? Or is that strictly related to the unlock tool having to wait 72 hours for new accounts before you can unlock something?

    I had my MI account logged in already before doing the VPN. After you have the VPN connected, go to one of those check your IP sites and see if it's really showing to be in China? Or give the log in log out a shot...

    Yes this is the one. Are you sure the VPN has connected before you try and add the account? There should be something in the notification saying VPN connected.

    Yeah that's the first thing I checked, all enabled vibrate already.

    Born and raised here for most of my life :) Side note: does anyone have issues with vibrate notifications? I get them with most apps but seems Gmail and Line notifications don't have any vibrations, only the popup or notification icon. Whatsapp and other apps do have vibrations like normal.

    Follow the instructions. Go to the wipe menu, there's a further box you can click to FORMAT DATA. Do that and you won't have bootloop.

    Problem With Install Rom

    Mi6 makes nice portraits with the bokeh mode. But if it's the main shooter, I actually found the mix 2 resolving more detail. Read a review somewhere that says xiaomi tweaked some software optimization further with the mix 2 camera...although I'm not sure why they couldn't do the same with...

    Followed this, worked like a charm! FYI I'm in Hong Kong and adding the account didn't work even from here (error 10008 check API thing) until I used the super VPN hotspot into China. I used to use global ROM on my MI 5 but that's not available yet for the mix 2 so trying xiaomi.eu out!
