Tried flash ver JHCCNBE29.0 but can't install Google services (Google account service wasn't there)... have to rollback Global ROM....

here my steps....

1. Update JHCCNBE29.0 --> restart
2. Restart in recovery mode --> reset all data
3. Normal boot up

What is super jerky and slow? Give some examples please.

maybe but hard to say... but really the MIUI fault which slow the phone down like Samsung TouchWiz...
but at this price u have to bare with it lo... haha...

really??? change ROM will be better... but Global ROM really heavy...
lets say Mi3 when u download Developer ROM (340MB) with G apps only less than 400MB if not mistaken...
but Malaysia ROM is 510MB which is 100MB more, duno what to add in until that much...

SOT?? of course Mi3 will win cos it has 3050mAH (around 4+ hours)
then it might be R3, after that Zen5 vs SP already... although i would say this 3 quite close... (~3.5 hours)
ZR should not be far behind with MotoG (~3 hours)
lastly i think RedMi 1s already... i don get 3 hrs SOT on this device... but close, actual is around 2~2.5 hrs only...

BTW R3 where is budget device leh... n it has 2 battery which is 2600mAH each...


laggy lo... it is not super la...
if you just compare 1s to MotoG with the same spec, MotoG perform better...

the MIUI makes the phone slightly laggy just like TouchWiz of Sammy to their phones...

well,u answer all my question for battery,i asumed all the sot comes from heavy usage,for mi3 n moto g part,i get same sot as urs,i guess redmi not so battery efficient as i thought it would be.


but given redmi 1s bundle set got extra battery/charger,should get 5-6 total screen on time,sounds good for me.

Ps:im using mi3 right now,ex moto g users,aiming for smaller device now(sp,redmi 1s),thanks bro

SP is smoother and also bettery in battery management...
RedMi 1s is poor in battery management but u always can have the spare battery to extend the stamina, but the system UI is not that smooth...
your call lo... i also prefer something around 4.8" with Snapdragon 800 n 2G RAM, around 3000mAH battery and also 13MP camera... memory internal 16GB also ok, if got external mSD card support is better...

really my fren... my advice is keep your Mi3... u will miss the multitasking a lot when u swap to 1G ram device...
my history within 2 yrs... Samsung S3 > Pantech R3 > Xperia SP > Lenovo P780 > MotoG > Xperia ZR > Mi3 > Zenphone5 > HongMi 1s.... i would say smaller screen around 4.7"is a sweet spot... then RAM 1G is barely enough if you like to swap a few (3~4) apps around frequently...

finally someone revealed something i'm worried about 1s....sad

yea both got pro cons la. moto G is just a light skin over android, whereas 1S is heavy skin ( which provides so much more settings). I'd take those features/settings over that small improvement of UI fluidity and responsiveness. And moto G camera is slow and don't take photos and videos as good as 1S. anyway.... I think we are comparing too much on a 'budget phone' haha

well bro... different ppl got different requirement... but HongMi 1s speed is still acceptable...
but again if you are use to Mi3 speed then it will be jerky as some one said...
another catch is try to disable animated transition for windows in developer tab...

i also like what u mention, decent compact 4.7-4.5'' with decent spec,but i can't find any. most of 2012/2013 flagship(4.7'') is phrased out

i brought z1c for my bro,but its too small,though the battery is the best i seen in android(6 sot average without stamina mode)

suprisingly i found hongmi is a better phone compare to 1s. better BC, smooth and responsive...what's wrong with you xiaomi???

maybe mediatek work better/more optimize in miui than snapdragon 400? wait my friend 1s to arrive then can test see what its like

stats dun lie gua. antutu bench mark for 1s about 21k whereas hongmi about 16k

that is a lil too small la... maybe u can try Zenphone 5 also... i feel it is not as big as Mi3...
actually 5" is my maximum already, i do not prefer to have bulky phones in my pocket already haha...
got a few 5"also not that big...

Xperia ZR also not bad actually with removable battery, i sold off coz i got Mi3 already and my gf don let me keep too many phones... haha...
then u have a few MTK Chipset phones like Lenovo S660...


@suntzulee
maybe it just the optimization of the new MIUI system vs MTK/Snapdragon...
we don know yet...

you are correct... but the UI really a lil laggy... it is not that obvious but if you see properly it does...
try to off all transition animation, it will be gone... smoother overall...
overall in the games i play no lag or what so ever... Asphalt8, CoC, King's puzzle games also all smooth...
but sometime because of the RAM, app starting or closing back to home screen will have a slight delay...

that is just what i feel, i'm not complaining and say this is a SHIT device...
but i feel it should have better in optimization of software vs hardware...

over all HongMi 1s and Mi3 need to have better optimization on their software...
2G RAM is just nice for MIUI to run, 1G RAM is a lil too less...
with the software hogging the ram multitask of apps and also apps launching might have slight delay...

Agreed ~ But quiet hardly get flagship with 4.8" screen, i wonder its will bigger screen in future going...

well, then we need to wait someone or developer to perfect the software so that it can fully utilize the power of snapdragon. Antutu high score can give me happiness for a moment. but what if the phone has battery drain and also lag UI...chinese say, nice to see but not nice to eat...

so Zenphone5 or Mi3 lo...

Anyone knows if I put 1s into tv USB port, will it detect as a drive ? Can help test test ?

If can work as usb for TV, then I will likely get the 64gb card and make use as a thumb drive. Otherwise like no use get so large card (at least for me).

Thank you.

Can anyone help to tried this apps to expend the memory ?

Yes you can, go under Mi Market and search under Google. Use the Google app to install all the Google software.
