China rom I assume it's original rom for the China market. So bought ap unit.

Vendor rom? Referring to flashing own cm, remix, etc?

its not noob question

we are just finding a good deal like u

Thank you guys

just saw Redmi Note 3 Pro (import) on sale at Lazada RM978, 3gb ram 32gb rom , what does it mean by import set?

drooling already to click buy, ahah

Mean it is the Redmi Note 3 Pro but is Import from Mi China by local reseller. If you are not tech savvy flashing Global ROM, buy local Mi Malaysia for a peace of mind.

Hi, where to get the Global ROM for MTK version as MIUI website was showing MTK China. Thanks.

i do not think there will be a MTK China... as they are not selling any MTK model out of China, Officially...
hence they do not need to generate a global ROM for that...

Is this mean, if I flash the MTK China there will be no Google Apps and only in Chinese language?

Sideload the Gapps are very easy
China ROM are English ready, just like the Global ROM but only with extra Chinese MIUI Apps which you can't use outside of China.

I see. Can we uninstall those China apps? Sorry i'm newbie to MIUI.

Some can, some can't. Hide in folder or use 3rd Party Launcher with Apps Drawer to hide it.

Thanks for the clarifications. Is MIUI 7.2.x running on Marshmallow?

nope... N3 still on lollipop...
only Mi5 have v6.0 now

Haha...I tot all v7.2.x was Marshmallow...

that is the reason i think twice now before getting Xiaomi midrage phone...
although a lot of others manufacturer still same but last time my Mi3 were promised with lollipop for almost 6~9 months it nv been materialize so i sold it off... after 1 year+ also no sight of it... but i heard about mid of last year they push it out already...
i do hope they promise to upgrade as per schedule, not drag and left user asking after 6 months also no reply...

Actually not only Xiaomi, I can say majority of China phones having ROM update issue...promise and let you wait. If you like to flash ROM then is OK to get a China phone and if you are the type that die die want OTA then you have to slow slow wait...

yeah


all not popular china phones are like taht

promise OTA updates and latest OS

but never happends ...

Not only unbranded China phones, big brands also the same. My friend's Huawei Mate 7 waited for almost a year for Lollipop.

best is still the Oneplus, Samsung, Sony, HTC and maybe few more... not need to mention is Google Nexus lo...

that is why you should get a phone with "community" support. Lots of mod provided by third party like cynogenmod or paranoid and so on.

XiaoMi phones ok also then... haha...
i like OnePlus 2... but the chipset, worried about heat... about RM1.5k reasonable now...
