How am I Meant to open Xiaomi Redmi 4x?

WTF?

I just received this phone from the lightinthebox deal (took 15 days btw) and the instruction manual is all in Chinese, how am i meant to open the phone? I looked up a YouTube vid and the guy was using a stanley knife. Is it really so difficult i need tools to open the phone? How am i meant to put the SIM card in? WTF?

  • so you can never change the battery?

    edit: also ,my phone doesnt look like that, the 4X i bought has a different slot and im struggling to find a way to fit it in

    • Yeah, a lot of the phones these days do not have removable backs or batteries.

  • Also, Australia is not a region covered in the phone? Antigua & Barbuda is, but apparently Australia is too exotic? What TF is this?

    • Xiaomi haven't officially launched their phones in Australia, so it isn't offered as a region on the MIUI software. Just set it to Hong Kong.

      • so.. too late, i set to US, so .. my time is buggered.. also is there no way to remove security? I dont want to have to enter a pin every time i use my phone, i hate doing that, im the only one who will ever use it

          MIUI is a custom android skin, so the settings might be differently arranged but for most android phones the menu is something like settings > lock screen & security > screen lock / PIN

        • @enceladus94: thanks heaps ! u were right, i appreciate that

    How am i meant to put the SIM card in? WTF?

    Sim drawer, Set the locale to Vietnam, use the finger print scanner for security, no need to enter a PIN.

    Why are you so surprised throughout this post? Did you not do any research prior purchasing this phone?
