Xiaomi Note 3 now R1899

[FlashSA]

I think it's under "Additional Options"
The ROM you just linked to shows up as "China" under locale.

Here we go:

Thanks... It's weird then that the so-called "Global" ROM on their website cannot be changed from "China"

I'd force an in store swap-out. Take your delivery document which is dated and be firm and keep mentioning out of box failure....

Remember: CPA is on your side - "customer is entitled to insist on repair OR replace OR refund"

Just spoke to my local branch. They will swap it out

I bought this but made the mistake of only opening a IC account after the purchase. (i thought i had one, i was wrong), now i cannot track&Trace the bloody thing

+1. Having endless crap trying to get the 3000 number from them... I was promised that IC Sandton would have it today and that I could collect the phone but nobody is able to do anything. Their service is shocking!

Yay FedEx is here

Did you get a confirmation email after placing the order, straight after making the payment ?

Nope . Just says successful in WeChat wallet

But I see the delivery can take up to 2 months according to the site

Yea that was my reaction when I ordered it.. A bit annoying but it's the only place I can find that sells nice cases for the Redmi Note 3

This whole thing reminds me of the Huawei tablet DSTV deal somehow

But nowhere in my IC account

I also didn't have one, oppened the IC account afterwards and the device was on there.....as if by magic :erm:

-_- mine is still empty. I can see this is going to turn into a very unpleasant experience.

Bought mine from geekbuying, someone on this forum somewhere said they deliver to him in around 6 to 7 days.

EDIT: See mine was orderred on the 25th, 8 days ago.

Ah, the joys of Adroid. Boot up the phone for the first time. Some google service stopped responding. Reboot the phone, all good. 2 min in the play store, play store has stopped responding.

Also, my device rattles at the top/back. Very annoying.

I see it's common problem. Meh

You have a dud. Return it.

So exchanged the phone. Guess what? This unit has the exact same rattling.

Can the peeps who got theirs turn the phone around and tap slightly on the back cover around the camera lenses and tell me if there is a rattle?

I'm already regretting it to be honest... I needed this as a temp phone and will probably end up using my S4 Mini.

Those of you who dont see your orders on the incredible connection site, did you use the same email address for wechat registration and IC registration? Did you get confirmation email when you placed order?

My Xperia X10 Mini used to do the same thing. It ended up being the camera module rattling. You should hear it actuate if you hold the camera lens to your ear while opening the camera app.

Used the same email address. No confirmation email
