Guys, for the fingerprint sensor
Is it similar to redmi note 3 (no need to press the power button to unlock it)

How do you plan to get it delivered here?
Consolidate service or agent?
I do see other stores selling it, with hiked up prices

Anyone with mi5 experiencing app crashing with Snapchat, whats app, play store?

Have you got it fixed?
Also, may I know your average SOT?
Seems like it really varies, on youtube, techtablets getting around 7 hours while s7yler gets +5 hours

Care to comment on your average SOT? obviously it also depends on your usage

Also, is it true the charger provided is only QC 2.0?

Estimates have to wait a year.

Expecting that long ah,
What about when mi note was released before?
How long was it officially sold here once it goes thru sirim approval?

Seeing how it took 2 months for redmi note 3 pro to be sold by xiaomi msia after passing sirim approval back in february

I wonder if they have plans to sell the mi5 pro version as well, probably can get more discount if it's sold on gemfive/lazada laugh.gif

the waiting game is a painful one indeed... while you can see others places have it and you can only dream of it...

The easiest way would to be import or get imported sets from shops at a more expensive price sweat.gif
The waiting game is indeed to cruel for us

Mi5 already sent for SIRIM approval last month, so expect it to launch soon, maybe next month or mid of the year.

Do you think they'll also sell the Pro version?
Or are we limited to 32/64gb version only

How fellow user here, may i know what kind of rom version you are currently running? Mine previously was 7.2.4.0 global version, connected to Miui Suite via recovery, i got a notification and updated to 7.2.11.0, however it turns to china rom version, Playstore FC, took some time to fix including contact sync.
*
How did you fix it and was it difficult?
Any difference using dev rom and global rom?

LoL that's is hogging to max...

That's my Nexus after 2 days n install majority of the apps I want...
I only used 66% of the available ram... shit how to use all...
Btw some one did a bend test for Mi5... the worst is HTC M9, Nexus 6P and this now...

That's pretty much expected with miui
Which is I always prefer aosp/cm builds

I'm using one for my power bank. Charging is not as fast as the original cable. Proven by using Ampere app as well to measure the current runnnig through it. which tops at around 1000mA, but mostly below as compared to the original which can go up to 3000mA

Now that oneplus 3 is out with much better specs.... 6GB of ram, Double the mi5's! Sigh... Bought this phone a little too early I guess.. Maybe should've waited a little longer...
*
Were you using powerbank with qc 2.0/qc 3.0 suppported?
Otherwise it's just normal charging

Sorry I misspoke. I meant I use the USB converter for my Powerbank use. When tested using the charger included it gives a very low current as compared to the stock cable
*
Which 3rd party cable do you use?
I've used remax usb type c cable and charging time was pretty the same with using original cable

Remax C cable is not Benson leung certified smile.gif u can google about safe approved C cables.

Read about how a bunch of usb c cables are not really up to standard
For chromebooks/new macbook can't be used I guess, works fine for charging mi5
Got both cables for cheap, like rm5 after applying those no limit coupon from lazada back then laugh.gif

Non standard C cables can be dangerous for any device. https://www.amazon.com/gp/cdp/member-review...ostRecentReview

Is there like a list for certified C cables?
Makes it easier to purchase one on taobao since there's lots of options there

Hmm, the charger support quick charge?? Heard is charger 2.0 vs hp 3.0... Need user to verify
*
It's QC 3.0 but qc 3.0 itself not really a lot faster compared to qc 2.0

I've tried with both qc 2.0 & qc 3.0 chargers and both reach 100% at more or less the same time (+1hr 15-20 minutes)
