Mine arrived unlocked (for testing purposes), and I fiddled a bit with it, but the magisk manager didn't work, had to reflash a soft brick

Still no custom recovery available, right?

I got 72 hours, but I suspect that my account status had something to do with it.

Exactly that, it's a bug that has been seen on MIUI 12 a lot, no biggie, but it gets the users quite riled up as they assume they're missing on an update.

Typing that on my X3, and so far really impressed (especially since it was a prize from a comp). The unlock is straightforward, just got to be lucky on the "lottery" on the waiting time. Loads of bloat, but all removable, and the thing flies.

Glad to say I'm now on the MIUI 12 EU beta, and it still works like a charm, the second format is really the charm :D

Yeah, possibly that, no clue. Don't get me wrong, it's not a biggie, as I always have an OTG mouse setup just in case that kind of stuff happens, just weird. On the whole that phone is a bit of an odd duck, not sure I'm going to stick to it, too much inconsistencies, both hardware and software.

Though NOW the issue is that the recovery (either TWRP or Orange Fox) won't work with touch, which is a bit of a pain.

Thanks for taking the time to order it, good job :D

Have at it with my blessing, at the moment I'm super swamped with Xiaomi comm stuff, and I get a bit obsessive about making threads JUST RIGHT :p

I know, was thinking exactly the same. It can't be a case of encryption, that's long gone, or security, but for some very weird reason that worked when a dozen more established ways failed miserably. Ah well, sometimes I'll just take the whole ''my phone isn't a brick'' over understanding why

steff_1964 r0n8 Saw that you Steff had solved it, just in case for others stuck in there, here is a walkthrough I found on an old post (it was for the note 5 :P ) on miui eu forums, from the user Danmue : put your (mi note 10) into fastboot mode - open command prompt in your fastboot folder -...

Exactly the same issue, and tried all the usual. And now can;t even use the xiaomiflash as it does the usual 1 second flash trick (probably because it's not seen by ADB)

Thank you very much, one of my main issues with the old lem was the client to link it to my main phone drove me crazy, and I swore off buying smartwatches that ran android themselves compared to wear or proprietary clients. Might take a punt on this then :)

Hi guys, At the moment, I'm on a Honor 10, which I love, BUT the small (for me at least) screen is driving me bonkers, and really would like to get a second phone for when I'm in a suit (and therefore not limited size-wise). I picked the 10 for a few reasons,after all it IS the best mid-ranger...

Thanks, I'd be interested to know how you're going on with it when you do grab. As for sim compatibility, it's a complete crapshoot, the dm98 was fine with one card from 3, but not another (despite than both worked fine in a proper phone). I always thought that little plastic door put some weird...

Mine intercepted the corner of a metal door handle, and it went through it like butter. I guess it sacrificed itself to save my wrist. Happy with the DM2018 so far?

Exactly the same, but in the UK. Asked an honor guy, basically the spaces are limited to 100 per country, and they were snapped up way before all of the articles about it came out, so... You can buy your way in via funky huawei, but frankly it's going to be costly just to get onto a beta, that...

OK, but as it's an instant test (and not a proper discharge one), it only tells you that the battery has the wrong coding attached. That, or Maze somehow is so good at power optimisation I need to buy that company (as they're for sale) and make a fortune with their revolutionary code :p

I know that Chinese manufacturer have a tendency to take the piss, inflate the batteries and photoshop bezels away, but not on that one, esp since 1k mAh would make iphones look like marathonians :p

I really doubt that, as mine, when I was using it, gave me the best battery life I'd seen in a long time.

Daft question, but have you tried longpress on power? If that doesn't work, you might (with the usual provisos) just let it run out of battery, then charge and boot it again

The joy of chinese companies. Ah well, nice handset, shame about the people...

In the UK, and despite plenty of others having said they had it, no sign for me. I wish Maze really got their finger out and posted the bloody update file.

Decent, nothing exceptional. Still use it as part of my rotation, which is not bad for a phone that price, mainly as I like the in-hand feeling (no case helps, and despite dropping/sliding it a few time, still pristine), and the whole unrooted (I went there but flashed stock again as really...

Same problem here, had to go back to stock, rather frustrating. And nothing at all development wise, seems there is no traction whatsoever and now with the Alpha X coming, we're stuck. Ah well, it was cheap at least.

Short of rooting and really remapping the home button (with xposed), you're pretty much stuck. Before I did that, I remapped the home button as short press-home / long press for open programs, and put the google assistant on the desktop (with nova launcher) as a system action. Pain in the arse...

Sadly there are only that horrid checkered case, which breaks within seconds, or sticker-back wallet ones. And the problem is that, because of the samsung alpha, most of these are probably just wrong but badly tagged.

So far it's a rather nice piece of kit for the price, but one thing really is annoying, the only case I could find (the checked one) is a dreadful POS, not only ugly but the plastic it's made of is crumbly as hell, and after just a few days one of the corners has flaked off. Problem being that...

It seems (take with a pinch of salt) that VoLTE is supported, but then most sites that announce that also make mistakes on other specs, so...) As for custom ROMs, so far the square root of bugger all, but the consumer phones are just filtering in, so give it time.

Is there any difference apart from the jump to 6GB?

Sorry, clicked on the first email notification which was the second answer, my thanks too

Genius, thank you so much :)

I can't seem to find a setting to invert the capacitive buttons like on stock, muscle memory is screaming :P

Now on RR, loving it, thanks again :)

Thanks a thousand times, I completely forgot that bit. All good now, once again, most grateful for the tool, and I'd echo what others said about a contribute tab.

Cheers, that one installed. Still not working when launched from the toolkit, I tried to launch it separately, it seemed to work, as went to flash success, but the BL is still locked as hell. And when I tried to redo the whole thing, flashtool just tells me that it can't find the script. Argh...

Afraid all that is popping up when running the installer is this

When unlocking bootloader on a G model, it goes to miflash, (followed instructions re drivers), phone is recognised as com, load the unlock package, but the status goes to ''class not registered, 0X80040154''. Any clue of what is happening, as my search proved unsuccessful for that specific...

Worked with KingRoot, but then you have a root that cannot be used for things like flashfire, so a tad pointless (and so far the scripts to exchange for super su haven't worked, as KR's new version really digs deep. Not to mention is full of adware crap.

Sadly not, this specific recovery stopped functioning two updates ago, it just either goes to the chinese stock recovery when using the keys, or when ADBing, reboots to android.

Not quite sure what you're asking, is it about using fingerprints to lock apps? If so, that's sadly not something the original OS supports, and as most of the custom ROMs simply do not work when it comes to the FP sensor, that leaves a gap.

Yup, hardware buttons, and fingerprint reader missing. Which to me are the main points of the Iron Pro

Weird, thought I had replied. Yes please, really missing the form factor, 7 inches are just perfect for what I do.

Put in a request, and yes, it would be nice to get the folk on here to do the same, but I'm not that hopeful, I'd assume that most have moved on. (I know that my poor T7 is in a drawer, with the rest of the tech that didn't quite make it)

Just installed N-ify (xposed module), and with a few extra tweaks it really is giving me that ''new phone'' look. Not perfect, of course, but with Umi too busy pushing new phones every week, I'll take what I can.

Yes, sadly a very common thing, but I have to admit that they really take it to extremes, friend bought a umi touch, and about twelve seconds later their new super came out... It's a shame, I really like their hardware, but I know I'm not going to buy from them again simply on that. (especially...

Damn, Meg you're being kind on spammers. Anyway, any news? That notification made me realise how long it had been since we had any hope for our phone.

Sadly not, seems pretty much gave up on it. Which is a shame, cracking piece of kit. Certainly the last cube product I buy.

Actually, found another thread, this time saying the pro occasionally comes with the same issue... bit more info http://community.umidigi.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=2604&extra=page%3D1%26filter%3Dtypeid%26typeid%3D102
