Mi3 WCDMA news and updates

[dec simons]

I am one of the first ones probably that managed to buy MI3 WCDMA device (managed to buy on 24 Dec). I will get my hands on it next week as it is being brought in by my friend from China, I would like to know how I can install Developer Version or at least root the phone. It looks like we cannot use TD version ROM that is regularly updated here and also on en.miui (look at this post http://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/help-me.23184/#post-193061).

• Any suggestions on how we can root? Does vRoot that is used for Hangomi work for Mi3?
• Any insights on when we can expect developer versions?
• Finally, any info on when we can expect 4.3 for Mi3?

I googled for all all three questions above with have had no luck.

Lets keep this thread to share info related to Mi3 WCDMA version updates. Thanks.

GOD with you... WCDMA version was released only 31.12...

Dev ROM will be available tomorrow (4.3 probably) but untested as we doesn't have this device yet...

Thats scary because the WDCMA version of Xiaomi M3 was just release on december 31st.
I am afraid your friend is bringing you a Tegra version of it.

Nopes, it's WCDMA and it's 64gb. I just double checked on Xiaomi site where I placed the order.

So? Mi3 wasn't supposed to have LTE... So no problem at all...

 

[vagyula]

but the 8974AB support it.

This doesnt mean that if you have that CPU you will get LTE out of the box. There was no LTE in MI-3 from beginning.

Mi3 has 8274ab.. no lte

according to this:
http://www.qualcomm.com/snapdragon/processors/800-600-400-200/specs
the only difference is LTE / No LTE support.
according to this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snapdragon_(system_on_chip)#Snapdragon_800
there are some differences in the GPU core and memory bandwidth, both of these will have some impact on the overall performance of devices based on the two SOCs.

You can't because it's not yet available.
Only 16gb version, and yes we know it sucks (uhum)
