I brought my phone back to greenfone to try to flash to the original China rom but they failed to do it even by following the step-by-step guide. Now I suspect they failed because they didn't use the original RN3 cable but I can't be sure about this. Maybe if I have the time I'll go back to them and ask them to use ori cable this time around.

Anyway their pc managed to detect my phone fine. This is bcz their pc was using Windows 7. My pc is still on XP. The problem is my phone is missing its USB drive, which is needed by XP to detect a phone. Windows 7 doesn't need the phone's USB drive to detect a phone.

If on windows 8/10 need to enable driver authorisation or something in the advanced setting
Seems to be the case for mtk drivers

All bro n sister wan to ask in confuse on purchase on redmi note 3 16gb variant n the asus padfone s which one better ...679 699
*
Spec wise, it's actually quite great running with snapdragon 801. But if you prefer larger battery capacity (4000mah vs 2300mah) and fingerprint sensor + extra 5 mp front camera you should go for redmi note 3.
I'd recommend to get the 3gb/32gb storage since there's no expandable storage.

Will it redmi note 3 perform to poor if compare to asus padfone s .. bdget problem 700 max budget already 3gb version 899 on satu gadget
*
It should perform as nicely as snapdragon 801 (based on the benchmark anyway)
If you don't care much for extra storage, you could grab the 16gb version at lazada for less than rm700 (with discounts coupon applied)

Unless you want to use its docking, as former user of padfone s plus, i would recommend for RN3 for its finger print scanner, intelligent screen and big capacity battery
*
Take it from ideaplus
Better to get the phone for its features rather than the warranty.
RN3 got 2 years warranty as well minus screen warranty though (like 96% of phones sold anyway)

Hi I'm looking to buy either a note 2 or note 3 today. Anyone here have tried the both models? What's are the pros and cons? Thanks.
*
Only difference is battery capacity, metal body and fingerprint sensor. Redmi note 2 has more custom roms though since it's been out quite a while.

Just got mine today, the fingerprint scanner is quite fast.
Definitely something to compensate for the lack of offscreen gesture on redmi note series. Gonna try update to the latest version.

based on what i read from china miui forum, nothing much and they claimed that version 16 and 19 drain battery faster.

and most of them waiting for the developer version which come with more new features and battery performance better.

Got battery delay issues with 19? Might have to hold my update then. Wonder what's taking so long for them to release Dev ROM

mine doesn't comes with any because I bought direct from Mi china... so I can't elaborate more on this but from what I observe most people bought from our local re sellers does come with some funny apps like APUS and they can't update via OTA summore. I think there are more of these shady apps hidden in the OS but idk since I don't have one to look at..
*
Those seem fishy
The one I from dfaro shop has no bloatwares other than the usual xiaomi apps.

Yupp.. Frost cover. Only black and gold is available. I dont ask about tempered glass. Maybe after new year more seller will sell the cover hopefully.

Yesterday, i bricked my phone after trying to downgrade with official china rom(mine is 7.1.1.1). Not even can switched on or fastboot. Demn.. Still can detect with pc i if I fastboot (even the phone screen is blank). Lazy to take the risk, just send back my phone to the shop, no question asked and replaced with the new unit.
Hehehehehe...
*
That non existent firmware version? Greenfone is it?
Other users should be more cautious about this before flashing the original china rom
Which method did you use?
Btw, did you mean you can still get it detected on fastboot mode or not?

Mine is satu gadget unit. Flash using flashtool as stated in the forum

Still get detected on fastboot mode. But dont dare to take risk using miflash to unbrick etc2.. My 2nd phone got bricked plus its atill new.
*
Fastboot is your last resort if you phone doesn't boot properly, definitely saved my mi3 from brick mode last time. Since I couldn't restore my twrp backup because I mistakenly replaced it with stock recovery sweat.gif

What's your 2nd phone?
