just let it be if you have no intention of using custom rom or rooting. It is more secure that way.

True, will see how long i "tahan".

On the bright side, this N3 battery life are so much better compare to my previous Note 2. Overnight just drop 2-3% compare to 10% on my N2

I played around and rooted my previous Samsung J5, got Cyanogenmod on it. Then accidentally deleted ori google keyboard. I'm such a klutz.
With this RMN3 I don't think I wanna play around with it laugh.gif it works fine

Any idea if i can download and update 8.1.6.0 on a locked bootloader?

My 1 week old Note 3 Snapdragon 2/16G, many time the waze took forever to find GPS, google maps too. Have to reboot the phone only ok. Hope the update will fix the problem.

You don't need unlock bootloader to update V8.1.6.0.MHOMIDI.
Download the Redmi Note 3 full ROM using your phone's browser or PC, then launch Update app from your phone and select 'choose update package' and locate the .zip file. Confirm the update and wait it to complete.

Thank You sir.

how often do you get the waze problem? I have not notice this problem on my phone that is running 8.1.1.0.

I only had this phone for about 5 days, and having this issue since using.

Did you enable "Manage apps battery usage"? and let miui restrict the activity?

Having this problem before with Waze.

Solution: Set to No Restrictions for Waze (Background Settings) and Allow (background location) in the App Battery Saver Settings. Previous default settings is MIUI Battery saver

Solve my issues with Waze GPS lock.

Thanks, will give it a try.

Updated to 8.1.6.0, waze work slightly better now. It can find the GPS without reboot the phone but waiting time about 1-2mins. Will try golok recommended setting.
