Oh.. i didnt know this was possible.. i thought recovery rom can only be flashed through mi recovery..

Tools shows error ?? Which tool you are using to flash Miui ROM?
it's better to flash using mi flash while returning from custom ROMs
9.6.4 is the latest global stable ROM

by the way thank you for mentioning pixel experience
i just flashed PE which is on Android P and it was super smooth and wasnt laggy as RR , playstore updated apps quickly, better resolution than LinageOS
however I miss the controls RR offers, PE has limited controls .
may be i will try CRdroid

Hi.. I flashed via redwolf recovery and it was a success.. Except that the recovery remained the same.. Is there any option I should know about so that the stock mi recovery remains after flash..

1 YOU SHOULd do fastboot boot redwolf.img to just boot recovery
however if u wana bring back the stock recovery!
download the Fastboot rom (2.2gb) of same version!
open miFlash
connect usb to device (when device is switchoff) - press all 3 buttons volumes +power while connect usb!
this will put device in EDL (emergency download mode) , qualcom driver has to be installed! (mi flash installs it)
check connection on miflash and Extract and further extract the fastboot rom , it will 7gb of data ! and follow instruction in the miflash to select the RIGHT folder (extracted) so that it will start flashing the device!
it will take 10 mins and device will be flashed clean! and recovery will be re instated
(all data will be lost in the internal storage)
however!
you can also try recovery.img from one of these folders! put it in your sd card
boot redwolf (fastboot boot redwolf.img) and click install image, locate recovery.img and select it, redworlf will ask you to install this file as what? , select RECOVERY.
wola!

Write to device failed
While installing twrp it shows write to device failed... please help me...

MIUI 10 Update. Questionen.

Hello,
I heard about a new Miui Version. Can i update without Data loss?
Maybe there is an OTA link anderen i do not lose any Data.
Is it possible?
An If, is my updated phone as quick as when i so Clean full new Installation?
Thank you!
http://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.0.1.0....roGlobal_V10.0.1.0.OEIMIFH_98721c9743_8.1.zip
this is the download link
i am going to flash it via twrp! (from Omnirom) so my internal storage is not Encrypted!
but if you are coming from miui9.6.4 etc then chances are your DATA partition is encrypted and twrp might not able to flash the flashrom (link given above)
however ! i bought on RN5p on 9.6.3 when OTA came, i downloaded and flashed it via twrp to 9.6.4 , that time i didnt face any encryption error!
encryption is mostly set in place when you enable screen pattern with fingerprint sensor! (even if you remove it later on, the partition stays encrypted and twrp wont able to flash recoveryrom!
then only oneoption
either save this file as UPDATE.zip and flash it via updater (miui's own recovery-image)
or download the FASTBOOT VERSION of miui 10 and make it via MIflasher! (you will loose all data )
also you may flash REDWOLF recovery, it has power to wipe partitions for RN5pro after asking for decryption pattern from you (as password) , i flashed RR and OMni last time via redwolf recovery after giving correct pattern while wiping /data /system /vendor partitions!
OK thank you.
So when in download the link .zip above and install it via official xiaomi updater installed on my Phone i wont loose Data?
Is this possible?
By the way, i have redmi Note 5 global Version (whyred)

There is no indian version. Its all whyred. There is only china/global.
OK, and i heard the Update has stopped because of problems and now there is a new 10.0.2.0 version instead of 10.0.1.0.
Is this right?
If yes, i will wait to Update.

1. try with twrp , or redwolf (wiping partitions (accept internal storage) , if it wipes successfully then OK, flash the miui10
2. if it gives error then boot into miui 9.x.x and save the miui10 file as update.zip in internal storage Download folder and open updater and call that update as "update from zip file" and try to do that
REMEMBER! REDMI NOTE 5Pro has code 4 ANTI ROLLBAK ENABLED!
if miui flashing change that anti rolback code to 5, then YOU CAN NEVER DOWNGRADE to MIUI9, if you try! you will FRY your motherboard
you can check your status
connect RN5p in fastboot mode, open minimal adb & Fastboot, and type
fastboot getvar anti
and enter
if it shows 3 then you are OK , but if it shows 4 then you can never flash any MIUI rom which came older days!
so be sure! plz ! read log of miui10

Okay so did you have try to update with this method ?
I have a Redmi Note 5 Whyred but when I have unlock my phone I wanted to install Xposed (in the STOCK ROM) and after the reboot... Bootloop and I have download an flashable ROM file .zip from the official Xiaomi website but now I don't know if I have install the wrong version or if the root may be corrupt something but my update software don't found the Miui 10 update but other people already have Miui 10 without ROOT with the official method (start the update app and download Miui10) so I don't know if this is a good idea to download this ZIP and use it in the update software. So i want to know if :
-i will lose data if I do this update like this ?
-the update software will work after the update in Miui10 ?
Thank you for you answer (AND NO I DON'T WANT TO USE THE BACKUP APP BECAUSE COPY APK DON'T COPY APP DATA !!!)

How about magisk? Does it still lead to bootloop efter following this process with twrp?
And how do we do a system update after at have twrp installed?

If yes, then it is fully supported by mi flash? I think it's the safest way to flash stock rom right now because you don't have to unlock the boot loader just to flash global or china rom.

The ROM is based on the Chinese beta version 9.10.17 Miui 11 and the Magisk is integrated into the ROM. Just flashed the archive with ROM from TWRP. I do not have a direct link to ROM - I downloaded it from the OTA server. You need to ask on the developers site.

Rooting chinese version with global rom.

Hey there are tons of guides and threads about rooting, installing roms etc. and I really don't want to brick my phone(was close once) so can someone please tell me how to root cn version of this phone with global rom installed? Or at least link me a guide which worked for someone in the same situation as me.

I am also searching for a solution. My phone was chinese variant and flashed global rom and tried to flash twrp and it didn’t get flashed rather it got a bootloop. I fixed that by unrooting from twrp but now i Don't have any recovery, my system recovery also don’t work now

Dude, flash miui fastboot ROM like this (search on YT):
HOW TO FLASH MIUI via FASTBOOT - REDMI NOTE 8 PRO
tha channel name is Konah the Begonia Guardian
*chose your version like pggcnxm
buddy how do you know that you have Chinese version with global rom.
i have this device but not sure if it is global or not
I'm using cn and moved to global.
Here is what I have done:
- Unlock
- Flash fastboot global rom (Only A9 available)
- Update to latest
- Flash orangefox
- Use TWRP's guide to flash vbmeta to disable and avoid tripping AVB (see TWRP thread)
- Boot to system once
- Reboot to recovery
- ...
- Profit
The trickiest part is when flashing recovery. If you don't enter the recovery after entering "fastboot reboot" command, your recovery would likely be replaced. Hold vol+ when entering command.
Be carefull when updating. If you have not flashed a MIUI full rom on orangefox, you cannot do incremental update, so go with full rom once. Also I have bootloop once, and fortunately escaped. Here is my solution (need someone to test, since this is my daily driver)
- Vanillafy everything (uninstall magisk, restore stock boot.img, restore stock recovery)
- Update
- Customize everything
OR
- After flashing update, dont reboot to system. It will likely to trip AVB. Flash vbmeta once and try to reboot.
If you have tried second update method and succeeded, please do tell.
Hope this help.

From the packaging, if you have a red box, it's chinese. If white, it's global.
From rom version. If it says someting like "QGGMIXM", it's global. If it says "QCGMIXM" or something like that, it's chinese.

can you guide on how to install MIUI 12 global on RN8Pro global currently on MIUI 12 China Beta ROM
I'm not enrolled as Beta tester (i know the warning issued by Xiaomi)
tried directly installing via TWRP over MIUI 12 China
but after finished install, the internal memory got all erased and replaced with weird names of folders and wouldn't boot to the system, kept rebooting to TWRP
reinstalled MIUI 12 China beta via TWRP

pretty simple bro, just return to miui 11 first because I fear you can brick, after that, just flash any twrp for a10 or a9 (depending of your android version) then wipe dalvik, cache, data.
**miui is problematic flashing in different versions, in my video I recommended donwgrade first

Hey there are tons of guides and threads about rooting, installing roms etc. and I really don't want to brick my phone(was close once) so can someone please tell me how to root cn version of this phone with global rom installed? Or at least link me a guide which worked for someone in the same situation as me.

I have the same situation.
Mine was worst. I didn't know my phone was chinese with global rom, 'cause the chinese sold me 'global version', and sent it in white box, but it's the chinese version with global rom.
Well, I tried following a few tutorials, but all after fastboot twrp, close AVB, install ROOT and reboot, started bootlooping and I had to flash global rom again with mi flash. Can't get root access / magisk.
Did you solve that? Please, guide us.

I'm using cn and moved to global.
Here is what I have done:
- Unlock
- Flash fastboot global rom (Only A9 available)
- Update to latest
- Flash orangefox
- Use TWRP's guide to flash vbmeta to disable and avoid tripping AVB (see TWRP thread)
- Boot to system once
- Reboot to recovery
- ...
- Profit
The trickiest part is when flashing recovery. If you don't enter the recovery after entering "fastboot reboot" command, your recovery would likely be replaced. Hold vol+ when entering command.
Be carefull when updating. If you have not flashed a MIUI full rom on orangefox, you cannot do incremental update, so go with full rom once. Also I have bootloop once, and fortunately escaped. Here is my solution (need someone to test, since this is my daily driver)
- Vanillafy everything (uninstall magisk, restore stock boot.img, restore stock recovery)
- Update
- Customize everything
OR
- After flashing update, dont reboot to system. It will likely to trip AVB. Flash vbmeta once and try to reboot.
If you have tried second update method and succeeded, please do tell.
Hope this help.

From the packaging, if you have a red box, it's chinese. If white, it's global.
From rom version. If it says someting like "QGGMIXM", it's global. If it says "QCGMIXM" or something like that, it's chinese.

If I'm on Global ROM on CN(red box) version phone and decide not to install root or custom recovery and keep everything vanilla with unlocked bootloader, can I do incremental updates?

You can, working flawlessly. But once go global, never lock your bootloader.
You can use below TWRP Thanks LR Team. (I tired Miui 12 with CH Device)
install TWRP in fastboot
Reboot TWRP after Advanced >File Manager > delete "system_root/system/recovery_fromboot.p"
Again Advanced > install root
Finish.
https://mega.nz/file/7E5QhS6Y#hzCpPWwxO4104R0oJRTv0L1_-lNb5D1pgYp9h4oJfVM
if bootloop restart TWRP>Advanced>Remove AVB 2.0
Advanced >File Manager > delete "system_root/system/recovery_fromboot.p"
Again "Advanced > install root"
can not pass saftynet ctsprofile

i just flash the MIUI 12.5.8 ROM even though it was orignally MIUI 12.5.11?????
i will try on linux because miflash can never detect my phone for some reason. only xiaomitoolv2 can detect
After you become root on linux, you can install it with the command ./flash_all.sh

im curious to know if you did that from the live cd of the distro you picked or if you installed linux
Not a live cd. Fully installed on the drive. Had to dual boot.
Just try different versions of the rom but same region where you bought

Thanks..i did install fastboot rom then dod the same way but i sodeloaded pixel os and it starts in first chance..but awoken os was not booting or I don't know it wasn't flashing !! And i have another question is Android 13 firmware is same for every rom ?

Question Installing Xiaomi.eu from crDroid

I'm currently on crDroid 8.7 and i'm thinking of trying Xiaomi.eu to see if the battery life is any better. I dont want to make a mistake flashing the ROM and so I just want to check the procedure before I do.
Am I correct in thinking that when on A12 Xiaomi.eu can only be installed via Fastboot and must not be installed via TWRP?
These are the instructions on the Xiaomi.eu website;
Xiaomi devices on Android 12 via Fastboot only:
- Download our ROM zip file
- Unpack downloaded zip file in the PC using WinRAR
- Reboot your device to fastboot mode (press volume down + power)
- Connect to PC via USB cable
- Run fastboot installation script from unpacked zip according your PC operating system:
--- For Windows OS - windows_fastboot_update_rom.bat
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You don't need WinRAR. It's just a ZIP-file and Windows supports that.
Don't do "Update ROM", you're switching ROMs. crDroid and Xiaomi.eu are quite different from each other.
You might get away with "Update ROM" when switching from one AOSP ROM to another very similar, and not having to erase Userdata, but I don't recommend it. Flashing ROMs in itself is very dangerous, better not play with fire. Especially in this case, I'm certain you otherwise do a Hardbrick.
So use Clean Flash. Also make sure your PC and the USB-connection are reliable, in that they wouldn't randomly disconnect. What I do before a Flash, is copy big video-recordings to see if the USB-connection is stable enough.
I solely say this because my AMD-based PC is plaqued with USB-issues (which are widespread amongst AMD motherboards) and it caused Hardbricks for me in the past.
But you should first flash the Stock ROM, then clean flash Xiaomi.eu. You can get it on the official MIUI site or xiaomifirmwareupdater.com

Yes, that too! Personally I've never used this route. In the past I've always used Fastboot Mode and PC.
But using TWRP seems straightforward, so you could give it a try!
With TWRP:
With PC:
Format data and flash Xiaomi.eu via TWRP. Firmware will be installed so you don't need to do that. That's it.

The fastboot version in Xiaomi.eu stable appeared before skkk twrp that supports android 12 encryption and there is still no stable version update that will appear as a recovery package. If you want to flash Xiaomi.eu on Poco F3 via twrp it is only on Xiaomi.eu weekly beta 22.8.3 for now or wait patiently for the next stable update that you will be able to flash in twrp.
