I applied to allow my account access to unlock last night, wokeup this morning to find a txt saying my account now has permissions.

My bootloader is now unlocked TWRP is now installed along with xiaomi.eu rom installed.

Happy days.

[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] StoneTrapper:
After deciding to go for the Mi Note 2 instead of the Mi5s Plus I ordered from FlosMall for UK delivery. This thread was a lot of help to me when I was looking to get the Mi5s Plus so I'm trying to give back with this.

The prices seemed to be amongst the best plus there's a 5% discount off your first phone purchase when you sign up. Use code QZ1L06I1DG5I at checkout (not a referral code AFAIK - at the very least not mine).

The "VAT insurance" was the cheapest I've seen and unlike some of the others it's a full refund of the amount (i.e not store credit)

So if the parcel does get stopped, and you have to pay just email them a copy after for a cash refund.

They have a registered business address in the UK too if things don't work out so well for you.

Plus after seeing a phone number on their site I gave it a try, working number, someone picked up immediately and with respectable English and told me their current stock level (accurate to the website but gave the quantities which aren't listed) and if I paid now when I could expect to see it shipped.

Anyway since it's the Mi5S you're interested in:

Final price delivered via DHL (3-5Days) including VAT Insurance:

Mi5S 3GB/ 64GB - Silver - $358 == £226

Mi5S 4GB/128GB - Gold -$398 == £317

Now I just have to wait for Monday/Tuesday to make sure I get my dispatch email.com.

Probably works out similar to some of the AliExpress prices if you use a cashback site but personally I'd just rather pay less in the beginning

If you find it helpful feel free to thank me, otherwise I'm all ears for other suggestions.

Oh and since you'll be charged in USD you'll want to be using a Revolut Card for that. Look into it and contact me if you want a sign-up bonus
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] Veidas:
Quick question for someone who has better knowledge than me. Is 4g really going to work with mi 5s plus in uk and other europe countries? Cause everywhere i check online, it says partially supported, some bands are supported, some not. So if for example operator has 2 lte bands, but 5s plus only supports 1 of them, will it still work?
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] patoberli:
It will work, as long as this operator has an antenna in the place you want to use it with this frequency.

The main missing band is 20 (frequency 800 MHz), that is used by most operators for the long distance coverage of 4G. That means, as long as you're in a larger town you probably have 4G, outside of them 3G.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] silverblack:
4G or H+ depending on location with Three and EE in the UK.

3G/H+ on Voda ,O2.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] Veidas:
Thanks for the info. I currently use nexus 6p, its a really great phone, cant really say any bad things about it. Maybe battery life could be better. But i want a new toy now, and if i sell 6p on ebay, i could buy mi 5s plus for virtually the same money. What do you think guys? Should i go for it? My main concerns are camera and overall build quality. Everything else seems just as good on mi 5s .
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] Klanac89:
The Mi5s Plus is a beast. 6p is great but u get 6GB/128GB/821 for the same price and with xiaomi.eu ROM this is unreal fast. Battery time also very good, even on 100% SB thanh 6p.

I think my 5s got delievered to my parents house today. Bought from banggood
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] StoneTrapper:
Ended up ordering a Mi Note 2 instead of the Mi5s Plus but strongly recommend FlosMall.

Mi5s Plus is roughly $400USD (4GB/64GB)(~£320/€375) shipped or $455 (6GB/128GB) (£365/€424)

Discount code for 5% off first purchase is QZ1L06I1DG5I (not an affiliate code) and that includes all the customs and everything to get it into the EU. (Make sure you tick the EU customs warranty box)

So far their customer service has been excellent and I did have a slight issue with the payment but a 2 minute phonecall and it was all good.

They only advertise what they have in stock at the moment so you actually do get your phone 3 or 4 days after you order. Just been really impressed by them.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] mrpurplez:
I ordered a grey Mi5s (3GB/64GB) from them when they became available, it seems they don't actually have stock but they let me order anyway. Good communication from them so far, fast replies, they told me they don't have any stock in grey but they have silver (I specifically want grey to avoid the ugly black bezel around the screen) but not necessarily true that they only advertise what they have in stock.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] ermacwins:
Looks like an amature website...
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] mrpurplez:
Update to this, they messaged me today to say that the grey version is now in stock and they'll be sending me one asap. The grey is now available to buy from their store again too. I'll update again when it's despatched/arrives.

I installed twrp, flashed eu rom but seem to be in a bootloop. What was your process
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] licht77:
CECT-Shop <-- bought there: sharp prices, very fast delivery - and: incredible support (exchanged my device within 1 week because I ordered the wrong version)
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] patoberli:
Received mine from Topone Digitalstore on aliexpress. Had (so far) not to pay any customs, was sent to Switzerland. Used DHL as the mail service. Asked for original ROM and it's arrived with an unmodified one :)

Sadly he didn't pack the presents (plastic cover, screen protector, power adapter), maybe because I also ordered a cover. Also it seems the package was opened in transit, so maybe they fell out.

Will inform the seller tomorrow about that. Otherwise I'm really happy with it, fast shipment, arrived in perfect condition (was very well packed).
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] ermacwins:
Did you ask?
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] patoberli:
I asked, we are still talking. I guess first video didn't go through to his WhatsApp (probably chinese great firewall), so I uploaded it yesterday to YouTube.

Then again, it's "gifts" and he clearly states that he doesn't accept disputes for them in the selling description.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] fpsazerbaijan:
Android pay?

Does android pay work on the original or xiaomi.eu rom please? Pre-ordered one from BangGood :)
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] patoberli:
Update to my situation, he watched the video and will resend me the screen protector, power plug and plastic case :)

"Case" for me closed.

[MENTION=7891850]fpsazerbaijan[/MENTION]

That's a question for it's own thread. In any case, if your country is Android Pay enabled by google, it should work with the original Chinese ROM. You just need to change the Wallet in the NFC settings once you installed Android Pay app. Don't know about the xiaomi.eu rom though.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] StoneTrapper:
Won't work with the xiaomi.eu rom as installing it requires unlocking the bootloader. With an unlocked bootloader Googles SafetyNet is broken so no Android Pay.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] patoberli:
True, but what I don't understand, in the ROM table here: https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/6-11-24.36315/ the Mi 5s is listed as Locked Bootloader = Yes. Does this mean it works after the bootloader has been locked again or does it mean that the bootloader first needs to be unlocked to get it working?!?

[Edit]

I think I found the answer now. It means, although it's a Xiaomi device, I need to unlock first before I can install it.

Good afternoon all,

I have a Bush Spira B2 8 inch tablet which is another name for Archos 80 Oxygen.

I want to know what can happen if I install the TWRP version recommended in the section for another Archos device?

To be exact: http://teamw.in/devices/archos80cxenon.html

Can this action brick the device (either soft or hard)?

Many thanks,

Ice

[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] vsriram92:
Huawei Honor has now officially confirmed that it will launch its Honor 6X smartphone on October 18th. The company has begun sending out invitations for the launch event in China.

The Honor 6X phone is expected to have the following specs:

1. 3GB of RAM just like the 5X

2. 5.5-inch 1080p display

3. 32GB of internal storage

4. Kirin 650 processor

5. Rear fingerprint scanner

6. USB Type-C port

7. Dual-SIM support with Dual Standby (Hybrid SIM Slot)

8. Dual Camera

9. 13MP Rear Camera

10. 5MP Selfie Camera

11. 3270mAH Battery

These hardware specifications may not be the same during the launch, but the handset is getting up to be another appealing mid-ranger.

The Honor 6X is expected to retail for around the same price as the 5X, which launched for $200 / £135 / Rs.12,999 last year.

Another variant for 4GB RAM and 64 GB internal will also be released it seems.

All the exact details will be known on October 18th during its Launch event at China.

Here is how it looks like

[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] PalakMi:
This seems promising
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] vsriram92:
Update - 13 MP rear camera with 2MP Monochrome camera.

Hope so this year Dual Camera rules the Honor.
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] PalakMi:
The only thing it lacks is OIS
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] vsriram92:
It doesn't have dual flash. Its having a flash like Honor 5c.
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] PalakMi:
I don't see any huge difference between a single tone and dual tone flash
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] MaRtYy01:
Kirin 650 is the cpu of p9 lite and honor 5c.Doesnt seem to be worth upgrading from honor 6,I have done side to side p9 lite vs our honor 6 both on emui 4 and the only difference is that p9 lite opens the apps just a little faster.

I expected something with kirin 9xx series cpu but meh...at least its cheap ;)
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] PalakMi:
Also, the kirin 650 is available on honor 8 smart, which is released today in india
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] vsriram92:
But the pricing is double than that of 5C. Its going ruin the name "Honor 8" :(

Another 5.5 inch. someday soon 5 inch phones which are perfect will be extinct
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] PalakMi:
I don't think so, manufacturers are still producing flagships in a size less than 5" (like apple and sony)
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] goldfinv:
Flagship yes. Most mid range phones are 5.5 inch.
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] PalakMi:
All I hope is sizing phones will stay like the present
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] goldfinv:
Same here. My hands won't be happy if 5.5 is the the norm for phones.
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] vsriram92:
Already some of them are manufacturing 6 inch phones.

Me too... My hand feels good with 5.2 inches. 5.5 is little difficult. Even my pant pockets feel difficult to hold it.

The size of Honor 7 and 8 is 5.2 inch which suits perfectly in my hand. But 5X won't.

Especially while accessing apps from the top left corner :(
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] PalakMi:
5" for small hands, 5.5" for big hands (like google did with pixel) with no hardware compromises. That'll be perfect
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] vsriram92:
But except google no one did that one I think.
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] PalakMi:
Yup, it's the only one
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] vsriram92:
Honor 6X launched in China. Like its predicessor, it is expected to launch in US and in other regions. Check its spec here - http://xdaforums.com/honor-6/general/honor-6x-released-specs-fair-pricing-t3483031
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] PalakMi:
I don't think it will be popular as the 5x
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] vsriram92:
I hope so it will launch 6X like its predecessor 5X and 4X.

5X was launched at Oct 27th 2015 in China and later it came to other regions. Hoping the same to happen for 6X.
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] PalakMi:
I didn't mean it will not come, I meant it won't IMO as popular as the 5x
[Honor 6, 6 Plus General] vsriram92:
Seems that now the trend is Dual Camera.

5X was advertised with its metallic design with low cost FP sensor. Similarily, 6X can be advertised for its Low cost Dual camera.

So that people can adopt the flagship dual camera trend at low cost.
