This is not like the reviews I've seen... I thought the 2 has been released already...

You may be thinking of the Mi MAx 2

Yes. I have just seen that. I really need to calm down

What is this little red light that keeps on flashing at intermittent intervals next to the earphone speaker? A nannydemon spring on me?

It's the status LED letting you know the NSA service is running

Schweet.... This : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/dark-background-light-text/?src=search

Telegram's sorted. Whatsapp, google stuff and others need to be sorted out.

Been moaning a long time regarding googly stuff that still insists on having a white background.

I do wish that the interface was more customisable, but that's a gripe with Android in general and not just MIUI.

Anyone remember the days when we used to still get Nokia's XpressCovers? And those little stickers that you'd plak near the antenna that would illuminate as you made or took a call. Good times

 

[The_Librarian]

Oh yeah, those removable covers was teh shiz!

This looks promising, but requires root access/rooted device.

Char is one heartless mofo

EDIT: Looking at the responses to my Google Forms shows a lot of Note 3 users here. More than double compared to the next popular model, the Note 4 SD625. Now fess up, how many of you spammed the WeChat site to grab it when it was on special for R1899?

Seems like there may be some issues with MIUI 9 on the Redmi Note 4, if the comments on GSMArena.com are anything to go by:

Substratum is king Been using swift black with it for a long while. No complaints at all.

Only did just now :crylaugh:

Sometimes it do help to peruse the comments.

Will try it out on a huawei device that's rooted and got nova installed, and on an s4 mini with lineageos.

Well I just checked and my Note 4X picks up the update.

Also still on Miui site for Note 4X http://en.miui.com/download-321.html

But I recon the problem is with Note 4 (MTK) as that one shows MIUI 8 only http://en.miui.com/download-309.html

 

[CamiKaze]

I didn't get the update on my Mi 6.

You will only receive the update if you are running a Developer ROM , you will manually have to load the MIUI 9 developer ROM if you are running a Stable ROM , Download link = http://en.miui.com/download-326.html
