I've received the OTA notification on my device, too...
Other reports came also from North America
So we might say that the rollout is happening worldwide and both Global and EU devices are affected

It's dooms day for our units if you proceed.

in that case who responds for the phone failure, the my a3 that I have no longer turns on and I am in Colombia

How will XIAOMI resolve this, I'm in Portugal, this is totally unaceptable!

Update available also on eu rom (11.0.10.0)

I can confirm the the A3 of my cousin is bricked as well (Italy). I've tried everything to try to unbrick it (official and unofficial flashing tools) but nothing really helped. The problem now is that the phone is no longer covered by the warranty and it is really unpredictable what Xiaomi will do to solve this issue.
The only possible solution is to give a free unit to everyone after a huge recall.

incredible that on 2021 a company like xiami roll out a killer update without testing it before. It have the obligation to repair damage. In reverse they will lost credibility...

They already did

Yes, it works.
Issues I found so far :-
Slow charging
Chat bubbles not working

I've received the Android 11 OTA notification on my EU rom (italian device)
update performed successfully

Received a notification of the A11 update on my EEA MI A3 today, but after the update, the touchscreen is not working anymore, multiple reboots and a factory reset through the recovery didn't seem to work. Does anyone know if it's ok to downgrade to A10?

today indian version got 8.1 update. cant we get that ROM?
ive tried using vpn for china and mine still says system up to date ,mine is on 7.1.1 nov 6th security patch,i think its cos our phone has unofficial playstore app that it wont update. there is a mena firmware update which it says is for our variant on nokia 6 forum but nobody has said if it definitely for second gen ta-1054 ,if it is you could flash it and install all updates manually ,but im waiting untill someone lets me know if its legit has i dont want to brick my new phone
There was one rom in the nokia-6 MENA method, but I could not get it on my phone tho, also no reply on the topic for solution.
I sent back the chinese one, and ordered a global version from amazon.
But after a while there should be systems dumps, or updates to flash.
Anyone else tried flashing mena 2nd gen firmware from Nokia 6 link ?

Did you try it, or?
I've tried it numerous times always fails log says cannot flash locked device
Any progress?
Ive tried installing the latest play store APK as well as China VPN and India/Netherlands as they have started to receive their 8.1 updates (apparently) but nothing.
Im stuck on 7.1.1 and the Nov 2017 security update.
Also, has anyone else tried USB/WiFi/BT tethering...none of these are working (AUS on Telstra). Has anyone else tried?
It worked fine on Oppo phone so its not the carrier and I have checked the APN info.
Another Q..
If the phone is unlocked, would you be able to flash the RoW firmware thats currently being rolled out or are you limited to the (not currently available) TA-1054 only?
Nokia Model: TA-1054 is this version china or global
got a TA-1054 here today in China. Updated 6 times all the way to 8.1.0 without issue.
once bootloader unlocking is available you can flash global firmware just be patient bud
@safron35. Yep..but my reason for wanting the update is so i get tethering. Currently at 7.11 all the tethering (wifi, USB and BT) on my phone is broken. I've had to resort back to using my Oppo until I can get it working as I need this functionality for my work.
@pola..Thanks for the heads up..I'll try connecting my VPN to a Chinese server again and see how it goes.
Anyone know what they use as a check/verification for location?
The ta-1054 is Chinese custom ROM if its on 7.1.1 Nov patch and will not update until you unlock bootloader and flash original firmware ,no matter what you try
Ah..got it. Thx for the info.
Another Q if that's ok? ....if it's had a custom F/W flashed this would mean it's already had its bootloader unlocked yes?

(miui_WHYREDGlobal_V9.2.13.0.NEIMIEK_2c4578fa45_7. 1.zip) ota update.

i received this ota on my redmi note 5 pro indian model, but as soon i flashed this, my device got decryted!! now i am on the previous build, and it is not showing any ota, does anyone else experienced that?
Xiaomi are messing around. #rollback Companies upgrade from nougat to oreo they are rolling back to nougat. Hope bugs on aosp are fixed quickly specially camera for Indian variant so that i won't have to use miui again on the device
Got the update should i download it or not any advice??
I'm on stock rom with locked bootloader so no problem for me to download this update. Will just wait for the oreo update when ching-chong release it.

Fake Rom V9.6.6.0.OEDMIFD questions

Is there a procedure to relock and unlock bootloader safely? it worth the effort and the wait of 720 hours?
I am thinking on flashing LineageOS when avaliable so i need the partitions and all things ok.

Something odd just happened
Ok, strange story to tell.Not expecting it on my phone.I'm running an unlocked 9.6.4.0 ..theoretical dodgy rom on my Chinese 128mb machine.It runs fine , i've had no problems with it...All of a sudden , just now, i got an official OTA update to 9.6.6.0. - the quote Xiaomi " Updates to improve speed and stability." Downloaded it ,fearing the worst and questioning my sanity in doing this.Anyways, I applied it , closed my Eyes and waiting for the reboot , visions of locking the device and going into a interminable boot loop , bricking the phone.Now pleasantly surprised as it's rebooted fine, seems to work correctly and more to the point.....it remains unlocked ! Just thought i'd let everybody know.
Does this mean the 9.6.4.0 was indeed not a dodgy rom in the first place ?
That's exactly what it means and some so called "experts" here still don't get it...
Your experience shows an important detail we wasn't sure about - no we know global rom is not restricted to global device version!
This week is a week of surprises.Spent just 24 hrs on 9.6.6.0 (see the Previous Post)...last night I got another OTA update from Xiaomi.It was the Official Miui 10 Global Rom (10.0.1.0 - OEDMIFH - Security patch 1/9/2018) .Again its working fine on my Chinese 128GB model....and again it remains unlocked.

Maybe because this is still in Beta stage.
The official stable version is still not released they sent out OTA update of the stable version to some devices for testing and after the feedback it will be officially sent out to all devices, so be careful that with the official release it might lock the bootloader.

Question [HELP] Won't recieve any updates since I bought my Poco F3 on June 2021 !

Hi,
I noticed that none of security updates or system updates come to my phone since I bought it in June 2021.
It's a Poco F3, in stock Rom. No recovery, no root. Nothing. I've only debloat it with a tool find in this sub. Maybe it's the reason ?
Right I'm on V12.5.3.0.RKHEUXM (EU) with security patch from June 2021. I noticed that version 12.5.6.0.RKHEUXM is available since one month.
Why my phone won't update ?

I have the same phone (F3 with European software version) I continuously check on the sites that contain the packs of the roms and also on the official xiaomi site, unfortunately it is still stuck at the version 12.5.3.
Version 12.5.6 is a stable beta, so for the moment only some users receive it, if there are no problems it will be released to all other users.
We will have to wait a little longer to receive the 12.5 enchanced version.

Did either of u enable early updates? I usually get updates one week after beta is released... Currently not on EEA but if I switch I'm pretty sure I'd get the update instantly after enabling it

I am currently on xiaomi.eu, but last week I flashed 12.5.3 eea and I activated the option to receive updates first but I did not get the same, I also tried to download the zip but when I try to install it it tells me that it is impossible because it is an update dedicated to mi pilots , so I switched back to the eu
Try again guys, yesterday I flashed 12.5.6 via stock recovery, everything works fine with 12.5.6. Get full recovery rom (like 2.9 GB) and flash it (ofc it is for EU global rom). Also after installation it says that is global stable.

Unable to update MI 10T Pro to android 11 (12.1.X - 12.5.X)

Hi,
I received yesterday a new Mi 10T Pro and tried to update to newest MIUI. I'm on 12.0.19 MIUI and system doesn't see any update. I tried to install via zip file (3 dots etc.) but every file i download (starting from 12.1 an ending to 12.5.7) ends with package verification: "You cannot flash this stable firmware".
Like I said - phone is new, EEA. I tried lot of files, option with VPN, change Regions.
Can you help? I don't want to send for guarantee cause problem with update...
I sended for guarantee and they updated phone to the newest MIUI (but I don't know details where was a problem and how they solved it). On Monday phone should return to me and I will check with next updates if it helps. I hope there will be no problems with update to MIUI 13 when it comes.
Hey bro, same is happening to me with Mi 10T normal version, is stuck with miui 12.0.11 and i cant flash stable roms or get any ota i don't think is a unit problem, if you have more details that could help me it will be appreciated.

Apparently Xiaomi stopped the OTA from A10 to A11. You'll need to unlock the bootloader and update the rom, then relock it if you want.
