Hello, today, or maybe tomorrow, I'm buying the RMN3 Pro 3/32gb, and I have a few questions so I know what to do when I get it( btw I'm getting it for 150 euros, used in perfect condition with warranty till the end of 2017). I've seen there is official Lineage OS? Does it have some bugs? Is it better than MIUI? And then here goes all the other questions, how is the battery on both roms, performance, camera... Is the speaker tiny like on the Redmi Note 2? I've had the RMN2 Prime, and it served me well... Thank you in advance and have a good day!
Great phone with good performances (78000 in AnTuTu), very fast : open apps in second ! The camera is not the best but it is enough and for the battery I get about 6/7 hours with normal use (some games, facebook, etc ..)
BUT
The rom MIUI is bad and will undoubtedly remain under android 6.0 .1 and contains a lot of bugs which will take a long time to be corrected, for custom roms I invite you to look in the ROM (Snapdragon) section of the forum. But overall they are all very good.
Hope it help
Probably don't even think of staying in MIUI when you have Lineage.
In all performance aspects its better. Along with lineage you can also install radon kernel and sound mods and you will make it a beast.
Bdw i got 87k antutu score with radon and battery is probably sweet.

150eur used kind of sounds like a lot, doesn't it?
In india redmi note 3 pro was officially around 140 euro. Brand new. . btw phone is a beast. Just camera is not good. Other thn that battery, performance, build quality, speaker everything is best . an custom rom development of this device is among best on xda.
Hope this helps
Thank you all! I'm definetly switching to LOS, and yes 155e is a bit too much, but here where I live (Serbia) it costs more because the only way to get it is to order it from China, and that's why the prices here are outrages! Oh yeah! How do I find out if my bootloader is locked or unlocked? I think I will have a hard time unlocking it, because my PC is dead anyways, I got the phone, and by far it's the fastest one I ever had... I had the Huawei P9 Lite, LG G Flex 2, Galaxy Note 4 and nothing comes close to RMN3's speed, camera is okay, but the battery is so damn good...
Redmi Note 3 is very powerful device no doubt about it, my phone scores 89000 antutu score in this rom-- https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/development/rom-t3612905 But this phone was launched in 2015 you should buy a newer phone.
Wait till snapdragon 660 hits the market, it will take a month at most. It is built on a 14-nanometer process and has custom kryo cores used in snapdragon 820.

Well yeah I probably should, but I had 160 euros, and this phone was the best for the price... Other options were Samsung Galaxy S5, Nexus 5, iPhone 5s, LG G3 and a few other really crappy phones... I think I didn't make a mistake when buying this phone
everything is great about rn3 except it's ****ty camera...
go for a device with amoled display and good camera.

all the versions used the same camera.The front shooter is amazing...
Just did a photoshooting with this device... wonderful even the zoom works
Coming from a Redmi Note 3 this is a huge upgrade, also better then Honor 6,One Plus,Iphone 6 camera
zoomed to 5 x before taking the picture.
@Supertitan, that looks real good. The comparisons I've seen so far made me doubt a purchase though... Currently running a Nexus 6p so I'm afraid it will be a downgrade, pure on specs of the sensor that could be the case.
P.S. grey cars sure seem to be hot over there

I dont know what you mean ? okay Nexus has the first grade software support from google, but Snapdragon 810 vs. 820 no comparison here.
Also the Charger (measured) pumps out with 2,27 Amp. on Xiaomi device which is top level on Charging.

I only meant picture quality, not the specs of the chipset etcetera, obviously the Mi5 zooms past the N6P on that front. I will await more photo comparisons, Xiaomi markets heavily with the quality of the Mi5 camera so hopefully it does not disappoint.
This was taken with the Fish Eye mode, otherwise it wasnt possible to catch the Details.
Two More Pictures, this time in Airport:
https://goo.gl/photos/nbLpHJt1gdTxveTCA
Uploaded few more to the Google Photos... only issue is in the dark, otherwise best camera phone that i had.
Initial shots with my recently arrived Mi5
Mi5 and Huawei Mate 8 both have IMX298.
Mi5 has more same, but better camera app - more usability and better a picture shots.
Hope huawei fix it

The quality is so close now so...for me there is no reason to use MIUI.
Hi Everyone! In this thread I'll try to gather information related to Xiaomi Mi5 phone.
Before we start, let's review the specs of Mi 5 in brief:
- Snapdragon 820, up to *4GB RAM + 128GB UFS 2.0 (*For Mi 5 PRO ONLY)
- 600Mbps 4G+ download speeds, VoLTE
- 3D *ceramic/glass body, weighs 129g (*Ceramic body for Mi 5 PRO ONLY)
- 5.15” 16 LED light display, 3D ceramic/glass body
- Front fingerprint sensor
- 16MP 4-axis OIS + 2µm-pixel 4MP camera
- 3000mAh battery, Quick Charge 3.0
- Full feature NFC
- MIUI based on Android M
- Available in Gold, White, Black (*Mi 5 PRO only in BLACK)
Display
The Mi5 comes with a 5.2-inch display that the company says is extraordinarily vibrant. It has used special technology to increase the contrast and vibrancy. The brightness of the phone is 600 nits, which is about 70% more than most phones. The display uses special sunlight detection technology that automatically enhances the colors when it senses outdoor conditions.
Design
The Mi5’s design is a continuation of the subdued aesthetics of Mi Note. “It was only natural to inherit all the beauty. The phone is built with high-grade Zirconia ceramic material at the back. The material scores about 8 out of 10 in hardness, double the score of steel. Ceramic is about 75% more expensive than even high-grade glass, Barra said, and has been manufactured in a 16-step process.
Camera
The camera has a more advanced optical image stabilization, which negates not just static shake, but also transverse movement, which results in better quality photos in high-zoom situations.The company showed the 4D OIS in action by comparing the picture of a shaking Mi5 with an iPhone 6S.The sensor is Sony IMX298 with 16 MP resolution and PDAF support and deep trench iteration. The model is one of the first to get the IMX298 sensor. The front camera includes a 4 MP sensor with 2µm-pixel.

Can you do a gaming review?
I have not seen any gaming review yet. Thanks.
Cannot wait for it to be released in India.
They also tested gaming. Snapdragon 820 is a beast for gaming ! Maximum temperature in gaming is about 39°C in a particular zone of the back of the phone.

Bootloaders will be locked. You need to go through unlocking it on the Xiaomi bootloader unlock site to so so. They will give you instructions after a few days.

I unlocked my redmi note 3 before I got my mi5 and it took a matter of days...
I used to have a z1 but after lollipop update the camera lagged like hell (happens on all z1 after lollipop) then I upgraded to a m4 aqua but it's so slow.
I want to know guys how is the z2, the camera lags on lollipop and if there is any problem with this phone, don't post "get a z5" I don't have money lol

Lollipop on yhe z2 is great, not sure about which lag are you talking about tho. There is no lag in the camera interface although there is small shutter lag, les in SA, more in manual mode, but tollerable. Think its a little less than on KK. All in all the best camera and android experience I had till now, tried a lot of 2014 and 2015 phones, IMO Z2 is even better than the SG S6, maybe not camera quality but experience amd OS smoothness is better, Z2 is still a flagship worth considering at a right price.
Totally agree with your opinion @5ageman
Yup, still won't get a new phone myself after owning one almost since release, it's well worth getting for the low price available now.
Thank you guys, enjoying my new z2!

Congratulations! Please can you test camera on kk and lp because I bought a new one 10 days ago and it came with lp not kk.
Darknessmc, download Flashtool and flash rom what you want. But if you downgrade, please only with full wipe.
Odoslané z D6503 pomocou Tapatalku
The only thing "missing" on Z2 is fingerprint scanner, but you don't need it if you use smartwatch to unlock or NFC to unlock. (I just implanted ntag216 glass tag in my hand, wich is very convenient for unlocking, but worked better on KK due to LP security restrictions, to be honest).
It has everything a top phone needs to have, including basic things like sd-card that some top-phones don't have
The only cons in my opinion are (and they are not exclusively z2-specific):
-No qi-charging (but magnetic "plug" possible!)
-Battery is fix (but new one costs less than 15 bucks on ebay if you can change it for your self)
-Fingerprint sensor missing
-No Dual sim (a lot of phones don't have one, though)
Qualcomm 801 is of course not as good as a 820, but honestly: there are not a lot phones yet with an 820, a lot have 810 or 808 or whatever...
Note 7 has reduced battery capacity to only 3200mAh with code N935F instead of N930F. :highfive: :highfive:

I saw it in my Facebook news feed. Looks promising. I welcome a refurbished Note 7 with smaller battery capacity, if it means safer device. 3200mAh is a fair compromise. I'll just bring along a power bank.

I suppose you could.
But I don't think anybody can guarantee it will work.
Unless Zack, from Jerryrigeverything tries this. But I doubt he has the Note 7 any more.
If your note7 is running well like me then why you just need to swap it's battery I m using my note7 with hydra Rom without any heating issue and if you don't have any problem with your device I suggest you to not change your battery and be patient because we will get soon an update for our beloved device

I agree but the first run note 7s wont get any updates.
The refurbed units will likely run new firmware all together and could possibly be nougat.
Whether that firmware can be flashed on 1st gen note 7s remains to be seen.

There's no way Samsung will release this firmware meant for refurbished Note 7 for the originals.
In fact, I highly doubt it will even be called Note 7. It will most likely bear a different name.

Will they released before or after Note 8?
Release before and diminish potential Note 8 sales? Or release after but not expect much returns?

Thats a good question and both points have merit.
I would think they would want to get them on the market and sold ASAP..having them sit in a warehouse isnt making them money

Too costly in India, it won't be as hot as was expected, almost 40% less sales most probably.
Price is similar to one plus 7 so not worth it.

Guess I start expecting too much intelligence on XDA.
One plus 7 and one plus 7 pro are different devices with different price point, is that too hard to understand?

OP7 starts at INR 33K for 6+128 configuration. K20 Pro costs INR 31K for 8+256 option. How exactly is that "similar"?
Also, why do you feel it's "too costly" if you are willing to pay significantly more for a OP7? Just because it has clean OOS?
Is there any info. on the LTE basebands on the Indian device? Is it the same as the Chinese hardware wise?
My question is if we can buy it from AliExpress and flash Indian ROM on it for Band 20 if they're the same hardware wise.

No, there is way better development scene in op7. Used op3t and still use it more often then Poco when I'm not gaming, it just feels better in hand.

I am using OP3 as my main phone til this day, so yes while the development scene helps, i feel MIUI is not bad itself minus the ads. I am still on OOS stock ROM, with a custom kernel only. I feel Android has reached to a point where custom ROMs won't make much sense expect for when the device has lapsed its original official software update window (2 years). I am still using OOS Oreo on OP3 and it works just fine.
