what a pain in the dick

huh, thats precisely the opposite of what I was hoping

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

or is some of that shit hardwired into the phone?

unlocking is pretty draconian

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

wat

took like three weeks

yes

how

i dont speak chinese

what the hell

i found a form letter

there

welcome to globalized hell hole

we chinks now

ni hao!

I got the G4 read global version

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

*G4 ready

ill go with the unofficial way

this was a year and half ago or something

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

mine took 2 months

haha

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

i'm slowly becoming the ultimate degenerate

tell us about it

how do you know if your phone is unlocked?

does it say "unlocked" in the settings somehwhere?

you get root boy-o

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

i'm piercing my navel

also I am purchasing a spinner

what is your goal here haso? you want to install some kind of global miui? or do you want to get like cyanogenmod or something?

priecing navel -> normie level goes up
spinner -> autists level goes up

nice balance

i haven't bought a phone in a year 😦

no idea what the "scene" is up to

actually threatened?
