I don't know how to restore/fix IMEI as I never had that problem before sweat.gif

but you can try to find some clues over Xiaomi official forum: http://en.miui.com/forum-86-1.html (RN3 subforum)

here's some thread I found, I did not dig deep.

Hi. Can i ask, where to buy the snapdragon version ya? Thanks. smile.gif

It's better to wait for official lunch next month.

If you insist to buy to buy it now, 88sales88 is the first forumer who got the RN3P, from Adomax at RM1099 for the 32GB.

https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...&#entry78971975

That price, I can say it's normal, since even in china market are hardly to grab 1. Else it's better to wait for official.

hi guys, is it advisable to get them from lazada? export set. any issues or factors to consider?
*
it is recommended to waiting for official lunch set, since the official 1 will be SD650 version.

all those import set you can found over lazada is mediatek version.

i can say sd650 ver is 2x better than mediatek version, meanwhile the price different just ￥100 in china market.

you get wrong line edi.. go read again what's his question carefully... we never mention is it sd/mediatek .. sweat.gif we are talking is it 16gb/2gb or 32gb/3gb model comes.

and no need to "feel" it anymore, it is already confirmed we will get sd version.

aiyaaaahhhh! i totally zero about flashing root etc. there any problem if i use stock phone? no flashing etc? gonna buy it from 11street. maybe they will pre install google play store . like directd,1gadget hmm.gif
*
vendor rom most likely unable to OTA update.

of coz google play can be side loaded.

china rom sometime you want to open a link, it open with mi stock browser instead of the google chrome you installed. and receiving apps notification from mi music, video, games, app store, etc which personaly I, me, did not use at all.

there is no international rom for RN3. RN3 only available in china, only china rom, no global rom.

all those seller claim to say come with global rom is actually vendor rom, "modified". that's why can't OTA update.

*
redmi note 2 could be your perfect choice then.

16gb version just between rm500-550 from lazada after voucher discounted.

not sure how much 32gb cost.

oh forgot to mention, it's import set, again, of coz. if you want truly original can buy from mi malaysia.

what disappointed is the mi malaysia price is okay okay only.

you see the RN2, china price ￥800,

if purely currency exchange it cost about rm550,

if you're lucky enough to get some good working voucher, you can purchase RN2 within rm550 from lazada.

but mi malaysia selling RM650.... .. ..

Hi Guys,
Thinking of getting a SD Redmi Note 3 from China. Just worried that it won't work in Malaysia as they seem to have 2 network standards for each model.
See
2. 选择网络制式
in the xiaomi link
http://item.mi.com/buyphone/note3
I think this is the Snapdragon 650 version. Can anyone help confirm this & let me know which network to select?

Thanks
*
双网通 is mediatek version

全网通 is snapdragon version

in simple, the higher price that 1 is the sd ver.

does the performance difference between Helio x10 and sd650 really differs in day to day use such web browsing, YouTube and other casual applications? Or Helio x10 is sufficient enough?

Does the increase in 2gb ram to 3gb ram version worth it?

in short, recommended buy RN3P.

he already say that he will ask her sis to test the phone at there. if ade prob then just return.

"I'll be asking her to test the phone out first there though."

New Xiaomi phone come with bootloader lock so you better be ready on how to flash. No Playstore also unless it come with vendor rom which full off China bloatware.

flash to official global rom oso need unlock bootloader? i dun think so. hmm.gif

QUOTE(tongaz86 @ Mar 13 2016, 11:41 PM)
You seems to care about after sale service so better get local warranty. Unless shipping from here to China is not a hassle for you.
*
ya agreed with you on this 1.

but previous there are user able to claim china warranty at here. forgot what phone edi. macam is redmi series~

not sure now still can or not, since RN3P are going to be officially available here.
