    Is there anyway to get my RedMi Note (Jellybean) to work this????

    I was gonna say update the ROM but there are all based on 4.2 unfortunately.
    http://www.needrom.com/category/xiaomi/redmi-note/

    The app does say 4.0 & up but I've seen 4.4 listed elsewhere as a minimum requirement.

    Xiaomi do make both products so you'd think they would be compatible.

    You'd think so, as the S1 before the Note is compatible.

    anybody got their miband from gearbest yet?
    I ordered it Dec 27th.
    They didn't managed to dispatch until Jan 7 which is very poor in terms of processing time, even for these chinese sites.
    Still hasn't arrived.

    Working under the assumption you went for the free 'slow' delivery... It can take up to three to four weeks for delivery (that includes the slow dispatch). That's what I and others found before Christmas with the Landvo deal.

    Use their tracking number for its purpose to find it out where she is.

    I used the "slow" delivery and it took 2 days shy of 5 weeks to arrive.I would advise anyone thinking about buying this to pay the extra for the NL post(I think its a dollar).I ordered another item form gearbest using NL post on xmas day and it arrived on the 12 January .

    I order this on Sunday, paid the extra 1.99 for a tracking number, and got a notification to say it was dispatched yesterday. Tracking no.still not showing any info yet, other than dispatched. Hoping it doesn't take a month to arrive anyway!

    I paid for singpost I think - is that 'slow' one?

    If you used NL post option I dont think it shows up until it arrives in Holland.You will have it within 3 weeks.

    07-Jan-2015 09:27 AM Departed Warehouse to Sort Facility.

    08-Jan-2015 09:27 AM Departed Sort Facility to IRELAND

    No update since.
    Looks like it may be going overland - could be ages...

    Ten days (dec 27 - jan 7) to just dispatch it is very poor.

    I think you might be expecting too much. Slow shipping and slow service is generally the way these cheap Chinese sites work.

    in fairness some of them e.g. fasttech are quite decent these days -> let you know on each item if it's in stock or when it would dispatch if not in stock. If in stock dispatches in 2 days. you'd have it in 2 weeks or less overall with singpost.

    so I'm not expecting too much in that some of the sites are a lot better than my experience with this crowd.

    Ordered mine on 27th Dec and choose NL post. Dispatched with a tracking number on 31st. The number didn't appear on the NL tarcking site until the 8th of Jan and then only as pre-advised. Seems to have arrived in NL this morning. hopefully will have it by friday but i guess monday is more likely.

    Customs shouldn't be an issue if you paid the going price and regular postage, well under 23 EUR. The item description on package may have them suspect it's more expensive. If they contact you looking for payment email them a link to the item on the website and a copy of PayPal receipt.

    No correspondence from them yet but hopefully they'll see it and just send it one it's way then as it's definitely under their €23 threshold.

    Yeah I had to do the same only a few weeks ago when I ordered a phone from China.

    Had to wait 6 days before when tracking said sent to Customs to where I deceived the letter in the post and it was released.

    Hopefully I won't have to wait that long this time!

    Battery life is amazing.
    Charged mine 31/12 and showing 60% battery remaining.
    Makes it easier to track your sleep if not having to charge every second night like other bands.

    Mine activates notifications for missed/incoming calls, new SMS or hangout and also when activity goals met. Also use the alarm feature daily. Paired 24/7 to my OP one via Bluetooth and no impact on either battery.

    What do I need to do to see the status now and how do I get the parcel from customs?

    (BTW - I purchased 2 MiBands - one for me and one for my missus. Total cost was €32.76)

    I'm fairly sure customs will send you a letter looking for a receipt showing the value of the item.

    School boy error. Two separate orders would have saved you the customs delay/charge.

    I had a look at the delivery while I was out and I see *Signed by Alan S*, so I'm thinking Wtf I'm not at home, I approach my house and I just see my front door matt haphazardly placed over a white parcel.

    Good old An Post eh?

    The packaging is ridiculously larger than it needs to be.
    Strange because xiaomi are normally very apple like in packaging.

    I've also picked up their piston earphones and several power packs.
    All well worth buying just take care buying only from reputable sources as plenty of fakes around.
