If you bought from Chinese reseller (I'm guessing you didn't buy it direct in China :)) then it will most likely come with a "shop" ROM. It is the Chinese ROM with GooglePlayStore and multilanguage sideloaded onto it. So when you boot up, it will have Italian language. And Google. No problemo...

Just a thought - have you set up with your supplier to receive LTE? I know with the supplier in my country when I have a new 4G device I have to log in to my account to "activate" the 4G feature that is supplied with my contract for the device. Me encantaría hablar español, pero no puedo, lo...

All depends on your network provider and band. Generally speaking in Europe there is slow but high coverage 4G (800mhz) and faster small coverage 4G (2600). Check which ones your provider uses and which antennas you have in your home/work areas. The Redmi 4 Pro does not support 800Mhz (most...

Does it have full sensors (gyroscope etc)? A lot of cheaper devices miss out on this, but at 75$ if the 4A has all the relevant sensors and Qualcomm, then its gotta be a sweet deal. :edit: Its coming in at 124EUR, so deal is less sweet... :( :edit2: So I checked the specs and it looks good for...

Things like your apps list and contacts will be synced with your google account (if you sync). Things like SMS history will be lost. Saved games will be syned with the game login (if you login to the game). Photos and music will be lost unless you are using a backup service (google do a good job...

At a guess I would think that the store you used is official Xiaomi. How do you know it is? At the very least I would expect a large company to change the contact details person "Mr. Xiaomi Sales". ;)

Thanks for the good tips and quick response. From what I understand, the EU ROM requires flashing to update - it does not have OTA because it is not official. So I have little to gain from flashing it compared to the "fake" ROM on the phone. The phone is for my lady - she will not understand or...

Please could you give more detailed info on how you resolved your issue. I have a "fake" rom on my phone and will need to remove it when an offical global ROM becomes available (I see little point in risking a brick just to get an EU ROM from here that will not get OTA). How did you check if...

Presently the 3S has better support from the custom ROM community because it has been out longer and also has an international version. So it is the better of the two phones today (based on the fact the phones are basically identical). It runs the same version of MIUI if that is your build of...

Better to buy redmi 4 prime/pro if you can as it has a better/newer SOC and 32GB/1080 screen etc for only a few more $. The other Redmi 4 are not so interesting or an upgrade from redmi 3, so there is not much interest. Only buy a 3s if you are on a budget, and even then you may be interested...

Danke for the advice. I will see how the user gets on with the device before I consider unlocking and flashing, because at the moment it is looking OK. At the moment I see little need to go to the trouble of installing the miui eu rom when it will not gain me anything with regard to playstore...

Well the phone has arrived and on boot it gave the option of French as language and also has playstore installed. I can not see any bloat apps visible. It seems to be running OK. The rom running is Miui 8 Global MBECNDG. So I have 2 options: 1. Try to install the miui.eu ROM and risk bricking...

this is redmi 4 section. you should be posting in redmi NOTE 4 section. peace!

They weren't on gearbest only a few days ago. :( At honorbuy it was 9.69 for flipcase, 7.75 for tempered glass and 15.52 for shipping. total 32.96.

I've spent about 30EUR including shipping on an offical flip and a tempered glass screen. It seems the prices are dropping and it is becoming easier to find accessories, but until Xiaomi do a proper global release on the phone, it will be expensive to get any stuff.

I've got mine coming from oppo mart and I was worried it would have malware, so I just wanted to check if you ordered from the same. I think you will be able to recover your phone, other models have had same issue. Check on en.miui.com.. Something about entering "EDL" mode. (I'm a noob with...

which site did you buy from?

On reviews I have seen they have shown that the only option is time-lapse. Therefore no slo-mo is available current rom / camera app. I do not know if the hardware is capable although I would certainly hope so. There are camera apps on the playstore that have slo-mo function...maybe they work?

I saw same review, and the reviewer seems legit. This is clearly due to software optimisation - many other 625 phones get great reviews and good Antutu scores. In theory this phone should be a solid mid-range phone, at budget price. I have already ordered the phone, so there is no going back. It...

Maybe you are getting mixed up with the Redmi Note 4 pro. I am sure many tech sites get confused. Even a quick google search for "Redmi 4" will bring mainly Redmi Note results. Maybe Pro/Prime is just a translation issue? As far as I can see there are 3 versions, Redmi 4, Redmi 4A and Redmi...
