With the kind permission of @joytest, the TS of Note 2 thread, I reproduce some content with some combination from previous thread which is relevant for us.


1. Strictly no discussions on warez/cracks or pirated apps. Please keep the thread CLEAN from such illegal stuff
2. Do NOT ask for links to such apps or links to get free apps which need to be paid for
3. Do NOT post links or references to such sites that promote downloads of pirated, cracked, warez apps
4. Any requests or demands for apps specified under points 1 to 3 will be outright ignored and will attract warning and suspensions from the mods. The community will help in the policing.
5. Please be civil and polite in your posts. Saying "Please" goes a long way.
6. Posts / assistance given in this thread are on a voluntary basis by the members and please respect that.
7. Readers are advised to try out any suggestions at their own risk.
8. Learn to use "Search Topic" at bottom left of each page before asking. Do not blame others if you don't know how to form a search term.
9. Read the first page if you have a question. Then read for 10 pages, AND the last 10 pages of a thread BEFORE YOU ASK ANYTHING.
10. READ UP THE BASICS BEFORE YOU START ASKING HERE!! BASIC QUESTIONS WILL BE POLITELY DIRECTED TO PAGE 1, or not so politely directed elsewhere...
*However, if, after reading Page 1, the first and last 10 pages, or simply lurking, has helped you solve your problem, it will be appreciated if you can post a "Thank you" in the forum since we do not have a "Like" button or "Thanks" button*

If need to add anything into 1st page, please directly PM me, so I can add it up ASAP..

Congratulate TS for V13.

Anyone try to download full version 23 firmware ? 500+MB, not sure still need to download as I already downloaded the 11.4MB patch yesterday ?

I'm on Dev rom, so I'm not really aware of this really, but some forumer said that the v23 update has been pulled off from OTA yesterday.. might be replaced with bigger 500mb update? soon someone will respond

Grats on V13!

under the useful information. I think can put this. just imho.

Q: when never i upload a pic in instagram, it will end up a black blank picture.
A: Go to settings in Instagram, camera and turn off "Use high-quality image processing".

Q: whatsapp could not send picture, fb messeger could not send audio.
A: Go to Security app (the green one), go to Permission, Manage App Permission, go to App tab, find the application that is causing u problem, choose Trust this app. Reboot ur phone and try again.

Q: in messaging app, sms from same contact creates 2 message thread.
A: Install Number Fixer and add +6 to all contact numbers. Then when u sms the contact, ur message will appear in both of the separate message thread created earlier. Now it's fixed. But you'll need to sacrifice 1 message thread and delete it. Future sms from same contact will not create a separate new message thread again.

what else can add guys?

if we can just avoid those scalpers post, we can just having fun here discuss about our gadget without worry.

silent reader too.. whichever useful information will be taken to 1st page.

lets see for the next v14..

should I put in 1st page?

thanks for your support.. while Im not here

The Xiaomi Global vice president Hugo already mentioned that it will be a OTA release. Also, I checked the miui forum just now, v23 is not available in their download section. The miui mod also don't say anything about it. In short, there's no full version 23 firmware available at this moment.

done.. anything else?

Thanks for this Number Fixer, I am finding such apps some times.

about CM11, not sure. Coz I dun use it. Can include too I guess.

But I'm looking at stuff like FAQ. Some common app question asked by mi3 users. Waiting for other users to add on what to put in FAQ. Maybe others can contribute too. So far I can only think of these 3 problem.

welcome~ Just sharing some app that is useful for most of us.

Even though I don't own mi3 but still would like to congratulate kamikraze for v13

Done fixing all my phone number prefix. Appreciate.

CM11 is not official, so better not, avoid confusion.

no, no need to congratulate me, it's fellow forumer who contribute here, I only organize information which ever I could..

Got woh..

[attachmentid=4088282]

At least you did it brilliantly. First post with full information you gather either yourself or forumer. It is helpful for my move to Redmi Note soon.
