[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] supercowz:
hi, im the ower of mi note 2 128gb CN version and i have 2 friend in usa who have mi note 2 global (from spemall)

(i check with them and they have all band )

i ask them to extract NVram, and efs partiton with twrp

what i can say is Nrvam from Cn version and global version are different !

Mi note 2 Cn version Nvram :

Mi note 2 Global version

now about what i tested

1) flashed global Nvram on my CN version, result not all band a actived (and with signal guru, no extra band) then i got no signal on both sim, and all my Imei still the same, of course i did erase partition modem and persit before flash nvram, like i do with my other qualcomm phone when i want to flash nram/imei

2) flashed efs partition from global version to my CN model, same no bands added no imei changed, and no signal on both sim, sim not working, didnt ask pin code

3) i did try to find imei on Nrvam, buth i cant find any imei

4) tried to edit my nvram with all the detail on frist page, but no bands added (checked with signal guru)

this phone seem not reacting like other qualcomm phone, for editing nvram or changing imei

i suspect those are stored i other place, or idk

here is the partition layout just for info :

i would love to add all bands on regular CN version like the global, and i really think Cn and global are the same hardware

i will be ok to share thoses Nvram, but first need to see where thoses dam Imei are located, for my Imei i dont care, but i promise to my friends to not share is Imei
