Q&A
Does TWRP from that chinese forum presist after flashing ?
No. Phone will go back to original RECOVERY after 2nd restart.
Does that TWRP is functional with REDMI NOTE 8 PRO ?
Some functions may work, some not.
Installing root with this TWRP will cause bootloop.
When something go wrong....
If you end up with BOOTLOOP, for any reason ( Magisk etc. )
Just flash boot.img from FASTBOOT + RECOVERY+BOOT and bring your phone back to life.
This boot.img was extracted from firmware linked above.

Yes, I have also done it with Mi flash tools.

So, I guess we have found a way to install twrp and it persists after flashing.
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?

i was not able to install magisk, tried it several times yesterday.

Ok, thanks for reporting. I guess that Magisk just does not support our phone yet.
I have also tested Magisk v20 and got bootloop.

Are you using the note 8 pro?
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.

I think that you have to unlock the BL first before you can access fastboot flashing, even with mi flash.l

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.

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.

Click to collapse
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

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 !!!)

If possible then how to revert back from MIUI 10 Pie to MIUI 10 Oreo

Hi all
My note 5 pro is Global ver, 6gb/64gb. I was on Oreo last ver, just before few days I received notification for Pie, so without a 2nd thought I downloaded and installed that. The Pie ver is stable 10.3.1.0 PEIMIXM and now regretting why I did that. The battery drain is horrible, it drains like crazy, on Oreo my battery used to last at least 2 to 2.5 days whereas this one just dies in 1 day, the usage is less then the previous usage in Oreo.
Now the question is how can I revert back to Oreo from this Pie, if at all possible.
The phone does not have TWRP but the bootloader is Unlocked.
Any help is appreciated.

Download oreo fastboot file and flash it with mi flash tool(select clean all if u want to keep bl unlocked)
U can flash recovery rom file and flash it via twrp.but fastboot flash is recommended
Will this not brick my phone as trying to go back to previous ver of ROM.. and due to this Anti-RollBack policy?

its been awhile since i have flashed anything on a phone. last time i did it was on my note 4...anyways, i also want to do this since my battery doesn't last long and dual apps for Pokemon Go, isn't working like i had it before.
my bootloader is locked. I know i have to unlock it via MUI website and write the reason i wan to unlock it. how long does it take for them to unlock it?

also, im confused on what model my phone is. i checked my model name: its M1803E7SH
i checked online and it says that its the redmi note 5 as well as the redmi note 5 pro..so im wondering if this method will work on my phone. pleaaaase help

You dont have to write any reason to unlock bootloader.
visit en.miui.com/unlock page login with your mi account and proceed with unlocking procedure, you may need to wait 360 hours before unlocking bootloader (depending on your mi account activity)
your's is Redmi Note 5/Pro model name WHYRED. you can download Redmi Note 5 Pro ROM package and flash it on your mobile

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.

thx for clarification it was in white box with global rom installed. but is it possible that a Chinese device may have shipped with global rom installed by manufacturers.

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.

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

Flash from Chinese rom to Global rom.

Hi, my redmi note 5 Pro (whyred) is in Chinese rom v11.0.2.0 PEICNXM,
I tried Miflash flashed with Global v11.0.3.0 PEIMIXM but encountered error " antirbpass error".
Bootloader was Unlocked.
With OrangeFox recovery.
I have checked the anti value of current rom =4.
And the Global rom I am flashing is also =4.
They are of same equal value.
What could have gone wrong?
Please advise /help
Thank you.
nobody able to advise or help?

This forum just basically dead, almost none of them use RN5pro anymore.
You need to flash dummy image before flashing the rom to bypass that error, search on miui forum or others to get that dummy image, i forget where to get it.
Thanks for the information.
Try to flash 11.0.3.0 via custom recovery and let me know if it works

First you have to downgrade to Android V9, i don't remember which MIU Version that is.
@mxpower, this is strictly not true, I have been able to install Pixel Experience ROM straight from the Global ROM V12.0.3.0.QGGMIXM A10 without needing to downgrade first.
I followed this CFW migration guide correctly (method 2) with no bootloops and all working correctly.
@perlene You probably flashed the wrong TWRP version, to be safe, Flash full MIUI firmware from SP Flash Tools or via fastboot and start over again
Same problem, I have tried few different twrps since yesterday, same keep bootlooping!! every try after flashed with full Miui firmware from Mi flash, still the same.
