current gen phones are quite hard to permanently brick

2017-04-15 10:43:42 UTC  

from my experience

2017-04-15 10:44:35 UTC  

good to hear. so there's always some kind of underlying system that the phone falls back on when the ROM is uninstalled?

2017-04-15 10:44:46 UTC  

most of them have

2017-04-15 10:44:52 UTC  

samsungs have specialy good one at that

2017-04-15 10:45:18 UTC  

im searching about the 4A and seems like flashing it is hit or miss

2017-04-15 10:45:21 UTC  

getting all the chinkshit off my redmi 3 pro was enough for me to just avoid xaomi

2017-04-15 10:45:30 UTC  

what a pain in the dick

2017-04-15 10:45:46 UTC  

huh, thats precisely the opposite of what I was hoping

2017-04-15 10:46:08 UTC  

isn't it just about uninstalling the MIUI and installing a pure android instead?

2017-04-15 10:46:18 UTC  

or is some of that shit hardwired into the phone?

2017-04-15 10:46:49 UTC  

unlocking is pretty draconian

2017-04-15 10:47:01 UTC  

you have to write an email in mandarin asking for permission to unlock

2017-04-15 10:47:06 UTC

2017-04-15 10:47:08 UTC

I got the G4 read global version

2017-04-15 10:48:25 UTC  

there is an official way to unlock, through xaomi, and an unofficial way

2017-04-15 10:48:36 UTC  

*G4 ready

2017-04-15 10:48:47 UTC  

ill go with the unofficial way

2017-04-15 10:48:51 UTC  

this was a year and half ago or something

2017-04-15 10:49:01 UTC  

just write that your phone is bricked and need to unlock it, always work

2017-04-15 10:49:22 UTC  

mine took 2 months

2017-04-15 10:49:35 UTC  

haha

2017-04-15 10:49:45 UTC  

what if it was just "300 confirmed kills" in mandarin

2017-04-15 10:49:53 UTC  

i'm slowly becoming the ultimate degenerate

2017-04-15 10:50:03 UTC  

tell us about it

2017-04-15 10:50:06 UTC  

how do you know if your phone is unlocked?

2017-04-15 10:50:15 UTC  

does it say "unlocked" in the settings somehwhere?

2017-04-15 10:50:17 UTC  

you get root boy-o

2017-04-15 10:50:58 UTC  

You can use an app called "Root Checker", works well.
