Yo I'm looking to buy this phone via Bluecube. Does anyone know if they restock already or do they always have stock? My location is Subang.

Many BlueCubes are out of stock except maybe the very remote ones. I asked a few and they all
do not know when they are restocking yet. It all depends on when Mi Malaysia is bringing in new stock.

Wow this is ridiculous. I've been following the Redmi Note 3 for awhile now and it's always out of stock. Seriously considering jumping ship and going for Honor 5x instead.

Okay so I'm gonna try and snag one tomorrow. Gonna try and find the 32gb version. If I cannot find that would mean I will have to buy the 16gb version. SD also.

So I have a question ah, please be as neutral as possible. Any better phones than the 16gb version? I think Lenovo K4 Note or honor 5x or oneplus x should be one of the better ones right?

price from directd 899 (849 + 50 more)
is it ori or ap set??
worth the wait for new set from mi store or just grab ready stock?
*
AP set with vendor rom. LHOCNCL version. Quite a hassle since you'll need to flash the global rom (No need unlocked bootloader), but other than that it's the same thing.

Took me two hours, because of some driver problems but it was well worth it. One of the fastest fingerprint scanners I've used.

oneplusone: sony sensor (imx 214)
redmi note 3: samsung sensor (s5k3p3), while front is omnivision sensor (ov5670)

imo, mi seems not properly optimize the rmn3 sensor it seems..it produce better quality when on aosp rom

Got samples for us to compare?

Hi, new to RN3 community. Just got one AP set SD version. Problem is what do I need to do to change from Vendor rom to the Global rom? Do I need to do a lot of steps? Mind to teach me? Pleaseeee

Thanks!

Here's the guide. Follow it to a T so you won't brick your phone.

who bought at directd? is it really 799rm? ugh still looking for one

I did. 799 for 16gb version. I recommend adding 100 more for the 32gb version cuz 1gb ram more. On some lucky occasions I only get 1.5gb ram free with nothing running. I have the 32gb one.

My screen feel warm like back of the phone and im using rubber case. Ipaky case.. Using xiaomi charger that come form the box. Aiyaaa. Takut screen burn and become yellowish
Tak macam ni. When restart the phone. And chrck ram usage. Dia tulis machiam ni

1.7 gb of 3gb available. (im using 7.1.8.0 version)

So if update to new version. It should be

1.95 -2gb of 3gb availabel since you cakap got abother 250mb -300mb ram.

Funny cuz my phone doesn't get warm from charging. It only does if I use it while charging. I use a Sony 1.5A charger, the one that came with the Xperia Z Ultra

I have 67.08gb free including the SD Card.

Don't know what to do with the space. Already installed lots of apps and games that I'll probably never use :haha:

Came with global ROM and did an update before using. 7.2.5.0 now.
Other than that everything is great battery life good

Reflash your phone. It's a bit weird because I myself have almost 100 apps and 20 of them are huge games.

i been inform that , redmi note 3 pro havent release on malaysia , if this is true , most of the shop is selling global rom , is it?

It has! Under the name Redmi Note 3. The reason why there's a Pro version is to distinguish itself from the MTK set, which is only available in China and certain other countries.

Mine's on 7.3.2 Global ROM. SD version.

So far so good. I noticed 200 MB more RAM and the camera seems to be performing better in lowlight situations. Phone's performing almost the same if not a tad faster. Some problems like aux output and fingerprint scanner not working (unless restart a few times) still persist. Other than that, no new problems yet!

I downloaded the OTA package from xda and used the updater app to flash it.

aesthetic - malaysia gold and grey for 32GB/3GB and silver for 16GB/2GB
internal - malaysia microSD support only up to 32GB while international(import) can support up 128GB

I'm not sure about Malaysia colour-specs correlation but for the second part, unless the international version and Malaysia version use two different chipset, I'd say they'll both support up to 128 GB.

I presume so. But if there are any future updates, then we need to do it ourselves I guess? Especially since I'm not from Selangor and can't go to their shop.  blush.gif

Once you flash to global rom you get updates OTA

for those who say rom different, rom hard to update

> I own a redmi note 3 ap set bought via satugadget
> it's basically the same hardware as mi malaysia set, same hardware, same LTE band, same screen (some might have different manufacturer), same camera sensor (samsung s5k3p3), everything.
> As long you bought the "pro" aka snapdragon version, not the mediatek version (mediatek only sold in china)

> For ROM issues, if you got vendor rom instead of global rom, just head to miui.com http://en.miui.com/download-301.html and download the global rom, flash via updater app.. factory reset..that's it.... you're on global rom now.
> Different obviously is the warranty, one is ap warranty, and one is official malaysia warranty.

If you got any trouble flashing the rom (especially SD/Pro version), drop me a pm.

You can't flash a global rom from a vendor rom, or vice versa. Because the rom versions are different, the updater app will deny the flashing.

That's why there's a very comprehensive guide written by the device team to flash using edl mode.

Anyone tried using this method to unlock bootloader for your note 3?

http://en.miui.com/thread-253680-1-1.html

What's really the difference compared to official unlock (request and wait)

You won't be able to flash miui roms. I got my bootloader unlock text in less than a week
