Can BlackShark 3 pro watch Netflix HD? - Xiaomi Black Shark 3 Pro Questions & Answers

I'm currently using a Blackshark 3 pro with Widevine L3, I heard that the global version of the rom has L1 which enables Netflix HD. Can someone clarify this?
also if thats the case, which rom do I need to flash to get that Widevine L1 to play Netflix HD?
thank you all!

You need global rom, MP3 is the latest

your phone originally is global or cn version?

It's originally the global version. Or at least that's what the seller claimed. It's a tad more expensive.

I changed my ROM from CN to Global but it is still level 3...

I guess the conversion is not 100%

I'm late to the party, but I owned the Global version with Widevine L1 and it still was unable to play Netflix in HD which is one of the reasons I sold it after it. I was disappointed but I think if the Netflix site doesn't list it as a HD supported device it probably won't work regardless the Widevine security level.

Meizu M6 Note port Google Camera with HDR+

Meizu M6 Note uses Snapdragon 625 and runs Android 7.1.2 Nougat, however, I don't know if Camera2 API is supported by this device. I would surely buy this thing if it can do HDR+ using modded Google Camera app! I still have the original MX 4-core and the MX5, and I really want to add this to my collection (good thing it has full manual control as well!)
do you have updates on this ? i would be interested to buy as well.

Do I need a custom recovery installed on my phone before I can use the magisk module? I don't believe Meizu phones have that

You got the device pretty early
The device launched two month ago in China so MEIZU hasn't even released this device firmware.
That means no TWRP recovery yet
MEIZU also going to launch this phone globally in a few months so the best thing for now is wait.
(They announced that they going to launch this phone soon in Greece)
I really believe this device would get a good community support as SD625+Sony IMX 362 makes a great combo.
The camera really destroys even the Mi6 sensor in some ocations and the phone only cost 140€ for the 16gb version.
Also don't forget the quite superior front facing camera .
I was going to get the mi a1 but when I saw this bad boy I knew this is the phone I'll get.

I can't understand what you wanna say
If I understand you're talking about the M6 Note community.
There no global release for the device yet .
Even MEIZU hasn't released the device ROM on their website so no bootloader unlock or custom recoveries yet.
MEIZU will launch the phone soon in EU so we'll have to wait for a global ROM , bootloader unlock tool and kernel sources

You're talking about the device specific forums
A couple of days ago I asked in the device request section to register this device on the forums.
Before we had to post on the General section
Now we have the device description,section and tags
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/meizu-m6-note
As I said the device released a couple of months so we have to wait
Looking forward for the Google Camera Port to this cheap IMX362 sensor! Hope it got great performance.
I have this phone now for a week with the latest Flyme update (6.1.4.3A). Phone has amazing battery life and realy good camera but.........it lacks B20 support. Even the site of Meizu says it's support B20 but it does not https://www.meizu.com/en/note6/spec/. I hope in future they can enable it by software but I'm afraid it's hardware related. I have modelnumber M721Q whisch should be Netcom Public version (whatever this means). https://reameizu.com/meizu-product/m721/

Just ordered this phone myself, can you tell me what this means and how did you notice? Will I be able to use it effectively in Holland and Belgium where band 20 is used!?
Was just looking forward to throw away my old 4s. :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
Maybe you can tell me where did you buy it? Thanks!

I bought it at Lightinthebox. I checked several sites for Band 20 and they confirmed it. Prior to this phone I had GalaxyS5 and LG G3 and both had 4G in my area. The Meizu did not receive 4G. After installing the app Network Signal Guru I discovered no band 20 was supported on my Meizu. I have KPN as proviceder and they use Band 20 for G4. In crowded areas like "Randstad" they also support B3 which the Meizu supports and confirm that 4G is working on B3 but not B20. The support desk of Lightinthebox will check this with Meizu.
Update: I found out you need model B721H Global version

Latest Google Camera app to test on the M6 Note
Google this:
Google Camera 5.1XX apk with Working HDR+ [Mod]
On the stupdroid website, under Download section there are 3 links.
Can someone please try the 3rd link and see if the Gcam work?
PS: I don't have the M6 Note yet and I don't know if the website, the links and the app is trustworthy. Otherwise I would have tested it myself and share the good news.
Not working at all. Sorry. App crashes.

Shall I wait for Global Model?

I want to buy this tablet, but I am concerned about it's Chinese nature.
I know it doesn't come with Play Store, which makes it a non Google Play certified device. Also, it bundles a ton of pre-installed Chinese apps, which are useless to me.
What do you guys think? Would just flashing the Global ROM solve everything for me?
EDIT: I don't care about LTE
Get the cheapest one. You can install the play store manual easily. Take a look at http://en.miui.com/thread-724110-1-1.html and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izlSUCbQ63o
Not sure if this is the best offer but you can buy one at geekbuying with the 10% voucher ADNDROIDPC for about 190€ (smallest version). I am waiting for the LTE Version, also i am looking for the 4GB RAM version.
I'll wait for the international version. This has more than one reason:
- official language support (German is not supported in the Chinese ROM)
- the hope for widevine certification (which isn't present on the Chinese model -> no Netflix support for example)
- the price should drop a bit until they release the international version)

There is no official global ROM. Xiaomi states that this global ROM floating around for the Mi Pad isn't from their development.

I just received my Mi Pad 4. It has MIUI 9.6.8.0 Stable.
Even though I had to install netflix through apkmirror, it worked perfect and the image quality is crisp HD. Same for Amazon Prime. Am I missing something?
I got mine from the "Online Xiaomi Store" on aliXpress (it's not an official store, despite the looks), and it came with a version of MoKee (android orea 8.1) instead of MIUI, with the play store pre-installed.

So far it's been very stable, though some things like the camera are are unoptimized for the screen. Some of the assistant features also have the "this will take a few minutes" page forever.
As far as I know it's just "yet another" custom rom, here's a link to it.
I have got my, today.
MIUI Stable 9.6.8.0.
Version EN/CHINA
I have installed Google Installer.
And it works very good.
But still wait for Global or EU version.
I am on the China latest stable ROM (9.6.26.0), with Google Play installed (via apk) but am having trouble with syncing my Contacts and Calendar properly.
Same thing, Netflix doesn't appear in my Play Store and I need to install it separately (via apk).
The newly launched Rootless Launcher on Play Store works brilliantly on this as well, so it looks stock.
So far am loving the table (screen, battery life, responsiveness) other than these minor quirks.
Will hop onto a global ROM when/if it is ever available.

For the contacts and calendar sync issues, give all the permissions to the concerned google apps in the settings.

DRM Info shows L1 but still no HD. I guess they didnt whitelist this device on their end.

I bought realme 3 pro from Pakistan and device is on widevine L3, is that region specific?
Am not sure about that..But may be Because ur device don't have that...But now I think since Wednesday I think so I am able to stream in full hd that is 1080p in Amazon prime video and , in Netflix I checked 20 days back...So currently am able to stream in HD in both Amazon prime video and Netflix...
There might be different versions of the device out there. Maybe a global and a Chinese etc.
Chinese devices normally don't come with L1 but L3 as they use other ways to protect digital content in China.

Teclast M40 - is there any Widevine L1 fix?

Hi everyone, I just bought a Teclast M40 tablet and was wondering if anyone has found a Widevine L3 to L1 fix for it yet. I tried with the file posted here but after authorizing unknown sources installation it still says me "app not installed". Is there anything else I could do? SD Netflix is ok but can't see why I can't see it FullHD since I regularly pay...
Thank you!
P.S.: the tablet has not been unlocked or anything, has stock settings/software.
There's no way? :-(
Also bought the teclast m40 and IT arrived today. I also searching for a solution.

The fix patch is only used to restore Widevine L1 certification on those devices that already possessed it before installing a custom ROM or enabling root.
The Teclast M40 was born with the L3 certification and will die with that. Certifications are awarded based on the hardware of the device, which cannot be changed.
In any case, I assure you that on that type of screen watching Netflix or Prime Video in HD or SD does not change much ...
Well it doesn't just depend on hardware since there are phones, like Realme 7 Pro, that have been dwngraded from L1 to L3 with update patches... was hoping in some software trick to make the tablet look like another device or something :-/

Hi, sorry for the late reply.
Widevine L1 certification is issued by Google.
Since certifying a smartphone by a company has a cost (which can be considerable), the smartphones of small or modest Chinese companies such as Teclast are assembled and sold with a stock AOSP ROM installed or slightly modified with proprietary applications, in order to limit production costs.
Often the Roms are not fully compatible with the installed hardware, as you can see from the M40 tablet, which has an Android Stock Rom with numerous bugs (see known bugs such as microphone, camera, wifi, brightness) and it takes several months before the manufacturer finds a solution.
On the other hand, companies like Realme (previously part of Oppo), are real giants compared to companies like Teclast, and can afford to have their devices certified by Google.
The Realme 7 pro you mentioned was born with Widewine L1 certification and following an update bug it was downgraded to L3. The problem was solved with subsequent updates directly from Realme.
To date, there is no way to give L1 certification to a phone that is born with L3. The only way was to use a modded netflix apk that enabled full HD even on non-compatible devices, but I don't know if there are any working apps out there. Over time Netflix has made them obsolete one by one...

11.0.2 but no Widevine L1? Seriously OnePlus?!

After updating to 11.0.2 I checked Netflix to see if anything changed. As I suspected, still on L3 with SD playback. We all know this phone can easily play a 1080p video.... Gotta love it. My fingers are crossed, maybe someday
we need custom rom to fix the widevine L1 for our nord n10

Nord N10 just have not been provisioned for Widevine L1, no OTA released by OnePlus (or custom ROM) can fix it, as key provisioning has to be done at factory.
