There is a default auto generated one but one can set a personalised one too.

Result:

After about four hours, my unlocked and rooted mi max 2 was locked by xiaomi after simulating lost mode on i.mi.com (Pictures attached)

I was online via a VPN. It would require my xiaomi registered phone number and network to unlock the locked device.

Conclusion

I can say with utmost certainty that Xiaomi rocks when it comes to remotely locking a device after it has been stolen and rendering it just an expensive brick in the hands of the thief.

Recommendations

Xiaomi could improve on the response time after activating the remote lock feature. I got a response time of about 4 hours. I wouldn't know if this is dependent on the Internet network availability /strength.

Esure one of the very 1st steps you take after loosing ur fone is to do a sim welcome back. Otherwise you gibe the thief enough time to come up with alternatives and explore all options.

Ensure you register an account with xiaomi and link your device to it, as soon as you buy a new or used phone. Keep your password very safe and don't you dare forget it .

Never ever save your mi account password on your phone browser. Some browsers have this feature automatically set up. Once you open the browser, the username and password is already keyed it and all one need do is just to click on log in. If a thief should open your browser in the stolen phone before you remotely lock it, he can access your mi account and even change the password.

Upcoming Experiments

Remotely wipe a stolen unlocked and rooted xiaomi device
Test if truly the find feature is inactive in an unlocked rooted stolen xiaomi device.

Stay tuned ladies and gentlemen. Lolz

Which of these options is 3G ?

bigtt76:
Nice but I love mine dark and simple. No to much decorations of icons

Did you enable the full screen display option? I did and I'm enjoying it to bits gives me more screen area.

StrafordSTONES:
well the phone is sleek...with a nice user interface, the battery is also good. But the camera like all Xiaomis is wack, I'm even thinking of rooting and installing Gcam. Summarily the phone minus the picture software is nice

Lovexme:
Interesting...

What happens after sending the message?

funkyjms:
I've not been able to send text to my contacts unless I delete the contact first and manually inputs the number. I know someone addressed this issue months back that it has to do with First "0" of the contact number being deleted but I can't recall the exact solution given.

2nd, One app has been turning on my WiFi automatically.
I have restricted all the apps under the "modify system settings" and "change WiFi connectivity" but it persists.

Kindly help.

Even China post ordinary small packet plus is a scam ,I have used it twice but in both I didn't get my order, it is advisable to use registered and trackable mail, without that , you are on your own.

It wouldn't tamper with your app data.

Go to settings and use the search bar

Pls guys, does this mean my item is ready for pickup? Or should I wait for "attempted delivery failed" message? I haven't gotten any call from Nipost tho.
