        • hi again, checked. the 4+64 GB version is OOS status now, so delayed some order. new stock will arrive the day after tomorrow

        • Thanks for the reply rep, yours is much more helpful than the customer support email I got yesterday.

          That said, will it result in further delay? I'm not really pleased that my order which was well within the time and stock limit turns out to be a backorder. I'll send CS another email and see what they can do

    Watch out for the unofficial global roms as there are reports it will brick you phone if you update

    • Mine did an update and it is now bricked. Having to go through PayPal because LITB is full of excuses.

      • was it the OS auto update or did you manually update it?

        • +1

          Any updates from those that have updated their phones?

        • I bought it for my son. He has told me he just plugged it in to charge overnight. When he woke up it was boot looping.

  • How long does processing usually take?

    • the 4+64 GB version was OOS status before, so delayed some order. new stock is arrive yesterday, will start processing. normaylly 1-3 days, all order will matched and send out

      • When will my order be ahipped out?

  • Are any of your orders on this shipped from China yet

    • +1

      Picked up from Hong Kong yesterday. In Brisbane today. Should be delivered tomorrow. I selected the Expedited Postal(7 - 14 business days) $9.20 option.

  • Just got mine delivered in Brisbane - Expedited Postal (7 - 14 business days) $9.20 option

    Came with free rubber case, sweet

    • Did they send the official global version or custom Multilanguage version

      • Got it yesterday. It was unsealed. MIUI Global 9.2 Stable 9.2.3.0 (NEGMIEK).
        Guessing that's the official global ROM.

      • MIUI Global 9.2 Stable 9.2.3.0 (NEGMIEK) as mentioned above

  • My order still has not been shipped out yet. I ordered on Jan 24! And paid extra for fast shipping and insurance. 10 days later, it still has not been shipped! I ordered this ad a gift for my family and I will leave Australia on 15th! I'm sure they will not be able to get it to me before that date.
    Such a shame!

      Try to PM the store rep, he is very helpful.

      • They already cancelled it, as I assume they are not sure when they will ship my order out.
        When did anyone else placed their order? I did on 24th, too late?

    • Same here. Ordered on Jan 23 and still delayed. Disappointing

    • I also ordered on 24th, at around 7am Brisbane time.. received it on 2nd Feb..

  • My order has been canceled. Hopeless pricks

    • +1

      i see what happened with my order
      We are sorry to tell you that due to the oversize of the package there is extra shipping fee charged by the courier company. Please understand you need to repay the difference AUD61.3, if you agree to keep the order. In addition, we are trying to improve this so next time when you place new order everything will be made more clear. Thank you for your understanding in advance.
      they want an extra 61 bux for shipping lol i choose the $9.20 option

      • That's a load of bs from LITB. How are we supposed to pay the difference if they can't package it properly?

  • Disappointing here too. Paid on 23rd Jan but not shipped it out yet. Purchased as a gift for mom on her birthday but long gone now.
    Good to see some got the phone delivered last few days.

    Everyone who received phone, please do NOT update untill you check here (http://en.miui.com/download-340.html). This is OFFICIAL Miui Rom site for Redmi 5 Plus, if your phone comes with the version as same as on that website (either full rom pack or older version), that means you are on official global rom then safe to receive and update from Miui. if your phone's rom version is different as that website, that's mean LITB installed their rom (not official), please do NOT update, otherwise will become brick, you have to manually download official rom pack and flash tool to flash the official ROM.

    • Thanks for the heads up. Wish I read this comment earlier. :(

      • Anyone tried unlocking the bootloader and flashing to the official Global Rom?

    • +1

      Did software update yesterday morning, where phone bricked. Sent message to LITB on way forward.

      • How frustrating.

    • Mine says MIUI Global 9.2 stable 9.2.3.0 (NEGMEIK) Android 7.1.2 N2G47H
      Should I update? This version is not showing in older version on the link you provided………also do I need to unlock bootloader?
      I tried fastboot method but keep getting "flash modem error" in MiFlash tool
      aaarrrrrrggggghhhhhhhhhh

    • Can we use either one of the three flashing method on the MIUI website? I'm not familiar with flashing and the system update method sounds easiest of the three

  • +1

    Hi guys, just received my phone and confirmed my ROM is not the official one. May I ask if I have to unlock the bootloader before I can flash the official ROM?

    Can I download the right ROM and upload it to my phone, then manually flash it over the LITB ROM instead? Or bootloader has to be unlocked before I can do this?

    Thank you.

  • Ordered one, received today.
    It's got seller rom which I cannot update grrrrrr…

    • Better you know that before you update.

      • Ta heaps

  • The box has grease and dirt on it.
    Dodgy and unprofessional.
    Obviously it was opened to install their malROM/spyROM.
    Not really ideal to gift.
    Grrrr….

  • Rep what options are you providing for the people who have purchased this phone and now find that the OTA update are causing the phone to no longer boot?

  • +1

    Received mine on 2nd Feb, came with official global rom. I gifted it to my father who was here in Australia with me that time. He has returned to his country now with mobile. Auto update today has bricked this mobile now. I have raised ticket at LITB and asked for refund but not expecting them to reply based on few comments above. Looks like I need to lodge paypal claim later on.

    • Just posted (using tracking) bricked mobile back to China. They won't refund until it arrives. Wish me luck!

      • So they provided no solution to fix the brick issue to you at all? It might have to go through Xiaomi officially to get it fixed then. How many of you had the bricked phone? Did you all send it back to them already?

        Btw, PJAus, did you have to pay for shipping cost yourself?

        • I pushed for the refund. They'll cover postage however let's see what happens.

      • Last week I raised ticket at LITB and first they asked me for photo of the bricked unit issue and after sending photo they said they have contacted supplier and will get back to me on this issue in 2-3 working days, lets see what they say now..

        Can we make Paypal claim to get refund and still keep the bricked phone. Mine is with my father who is living overseas, bit of hassle for him to send bricked unit back..

  • Does anyone have any trouble flashing the phone?

  • +1

    Phone arrived today with global rom 9.2.6. Must be my lucky day!

    • Mine arrived this week and I also got the global rom 9.2.6… I guess sometimes you get lucky (those who got fast shipping got the shit rom batch).

      • Yeah, never thought I would be happy with slow delivery.

  • +1

    So can we get a clear answer on the rom situation? Which version are people getting that bricks if you try update it?

    Has anyone here received and successfully updated the phone software from this batch order?
