share link, thank you

---

can we flash this to current rn3pro? or will we all get the update normally?

---

If it's identical and same hardware specs then good news. There should be no problems flashing it.

---

I hope that will be possible with software update. Then RN3 will be unbeatable

I don't have the firmware. Later I will try to get it from MI Downloads page over VPN (Taiwan).

Does this mean band 20 is on route?

---

He might be talking about different links. The screen shot shows the Chinese global 7.3.6.0 running android 6. I couldn't find any links like that. It might be a custom rom(unofficial) in that screenshot.

It's 100% the same specs like the normal RN3 Pro and with FDD B20.

Thanks for the links, although they both seem to be just our regular RN3s without band 20.
Reference - http://www.mi.com/note3/specs/
Double Netcom is mediatek version
Full Netcom is SnapDragon version
Special Edition should be the version with b20...
However, the ROM from special edition might appear on that site, so a nice find sir!

---

Did someone try the Rom?

The rom wont have efs in it. Its probably miui 7 on android 6 tho

I am trying to install it via TWRP, but it is stuck at 'Patching system image unconditionally...' for quite a long time, so I think it somehow failed.
Anyways, the fastboot version can be found here: http://tw.miui.com/thread-24965-1-1.html
Direct link: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V7.3.9.0.M...DE_20160523.0000.23_6.0_global_f7170696d8.tgz
Cheers.

Would you mind uploading the modem file NON-HLOS.bin out of /images?
