KuliMart:


You can't get it via OTA.

You have to do manual flashing which is very easy.

OMG! Kulimart never explained this in details, i wouldn't have rushed for this note-2 prime purchase. Besides, why can't i get it via OTA? is it xiaomi policy?

Majority of the users are always complaining of boomerang following manual flashing which connotes doom. Moreover, was note 3 released with global china stable rom too or contrary?

However, i will exercise patience till users vet this global stable rom well. Pending that, how is manual flashing of this rom done?

It's simple to do.

I've been reading reviews on this xiaomi redmi note 2 and I've watched quite some video reviews about the phone also. I'm beginning to love the phone more and more. I'm still waiting for mine from gearbest. I was one of the lucky ones to purchase the xiaomi redmi note 2 prime for $79.99 which was around 17,800 naira during the black Friday massive countdown. Only 20 pieces were sold for that price and as i be sharp guy, i grab one grin grin grin They said shipping is going to take about 3 weeks to get it to my address but this 3 weeks feels like 1yeaar.

What could be the problem if it keeps saying zip file corrupted while flashing.

The best thing you can do to your Xiaomi phone is to flash TWRP on it.

Full details > http://en.miui.com/thread-152550-1-1.html


With this installed, there will be no issue flashing any ROM on your phone.

To flash is scary to me, I swear but this Chinese rom [default] is equally killing also! I need to port!

Which one is TWRP again self?

I am on MIUI 7 v7.9.6.0-default [on Note 2/prime] but which of these flashing methods; SYSTEM UPDATE / RECOVERY UPDATE / FASTBOOT UPDATE will be most situable to port to this Global rom MIUI 7 v7.0.12.0?

KINDLY HELP IF YOU YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY FLASHED!

I bought different stuff that day. Different post service were used in shipping my items. So far I've been able to track other items except the phone shipped ny Netherland post service. Gearbest Customer Service told me that the fault is from the post service in charge of the particular item. They haven't updated the tracking information.
