Hi I'm going to buy an Xiaomi Mi5 and I have a question: I read on Internet that some Xiaomi phones have some problem with airwatch enrollment.
Someone have some experience about it? And the enrollment give the possibility to use the fingerprint to unlock the device?
Thanks

Hello Everybody,
I will have a Z2 soon and I was thinking maybe possible to change the NVRAM values and unlock some LTE bands.
Is there anybody who has experimented with this one?
Is there any hardware (RF?) limitation?
I have seen some threads in the past where the users made experiments with Qualcomm based phones to turn on some LTE bands and for some of them they were be able to do it, so who knows, maybe we can also turn it on.
I tried that with my Xiaomi Mi 5 for a few weeks. And although I had electrical engineering in college I was unable to get it working. Also visited the Xiaomi forum a lot but in the end someone told me that it has been disabled by Qualcomm, the SD820 that Xiaomi gets from Qualcomm has it somehow disabled. Not sure if it is true or not but I never got it working. Sold the Mi 5 at some point and bought a ZUK Z2 Pro.
So, don't be surprised if it doesn't work but still good luck to you and your effort.
You can try it and melt the modem or get cancer. It isn't worth doing so just get the Pro.

It's not so important for me, so I will stay with the Z2, it was just an idea. Who knows, maybe possible.
Is there any difference between the 8GB Pro and the Explorer Edition?
I had assumed not... but I'm reading some reports that suggest the Pro just has infrared face sensing while the Explorer Edition has 3D sensing face detection. Anyone able to confirm this...?
You are right. I'm an owner of Mi8 UD (so called Mi8 Pro edition), and the only difference between Mi8 EE and Mi8 Pro is just the face sensing(As confirmed by Xiaomi staff in ShenZhen China). Mi8 Pro uses infrared face sensing only, while Mi8 EE uses both infrared and 3D sensing
Can I ask? Which ROm are you on and do you think, there will be any development for Mi 8 Pro? I mean any treble project ROMs? Thanks
Would also be quite interested which ROM you are on and how your experiences have been so far.
I really wanna buy a Mi 8 Pro but am quite unsure how the China version works with a global ROM as I have never bought from China before.
I am on xiaomi.eu ROM 10.10.18. I am satisfied, but would like to see some more development for Mi8 Pro.
Hello! I am thinking about getting a Mi 9 after a Huawei Mate 10 Pro hardbrick.. How good is the development support from Xiaomi? Are they more open and kind to developers than Huawei? How big are the risk of bricking a Xiaomi phone, and how are the chances of recovering from the bricked state if it would happen?
Thanks
I wondering the same thing as well. Im from the United States and this would be my first Xaomi Phone.
Currently using a Oneplus 5t and its still running great.
The development is going steady for a phone that has recently launched, and that didn't have a simultaneous worldwide release.
There are one-click tools to unbrick this phone already, and AFAIK haven't seen anyone bricking a phone beyond a point it couldn't have been recovered. So, fiddling with it is safe.
Im big fan of my Mi8, but i get a Huawei P30. I didnt open and try the P30, i just read reviews. It is upgrade, or better to stay by Mi8? Who have experience, please let me know your meaning about that. Thanks
I would stay with Mi8 and sell P30. There is no big advantage of switching to P30
Hey guys,
I was looking for a new phone in the last weeks, and I found the Mi 11 Ultra.
My budget's 700 ~ 800 dollars
But I was looking in the Aliexpress, some announcements and I only found the Global ROM. After a search, I discover that this version can not work with some bank apps or the NFC.
This is true? Do you guys have some seller that sells a MI 11 Ultra without the bootloader unlocked? I need a phone with the Google and bank apps working.
Do you guys recommend other phones that are in the budget that I mentioned?
Thanks!

Chinese devices are not so interesting today
For the apps to work, you will need to root the phone and use Magisk hide or install a Xiaomi Eu rom.

Xiaomi 12 pro
Or buy a second hand worldwide version, that's what I have. Non rooted, global rom, banking apps fine, widevine and safetynet pass so google pay/wallet etc works too. NOWTV app doesn't work though :/
That's because of the the second screen. The app thinks it is casting or something. I tried to get sky to put it on the exception but they wouldn't. I bet the new galaxy fold with second screen will have same problem.
As a global version user (not global rom). It worth every single dollar I paid for it. No regret not even slightly
The China rom one can easily use nfc and other apps... I own one so I should know
