Custom ROM to MIUI - Redmi Note 9 Pro Max Questions & Answers

I recently moved from latest miui 12.5 (android 11) to pixel experience plus (android 12). I installed pixel experience using their own recovery. Now I wanna switch back to miui 12.5 (android 11). I came across two methods from youtube. First one is the recovery method, and the second if the fastboot method using the mi flash tool. I came to know that is first method is not so reliable. So I prefer to use the fastboot method. But I have a doubt that is there any problem because I'm gonna downgrade the android too? Please guide me. Im facing many issues with the pixel experience plus ROM.

Revert back to 3.2.4 from 3.5.2 community build

Hello. I'm currently running on 3.5.2 community build.
I have stock recovery and wanted to go back to 3.2.4.
I had hoped this would be a simple affair but there a few posts which state that having tried to sideload the stock rom using stock recovery the process halts at 47℅?
I had assumed this would be a straight forward process to revert back to stock?
Can anyone advise the process please?
I'm running a one+ 3 and I'm totally unrooted.

use this recovery.
This won't work.
You've to flash completely stock from Naman thread
Then only u can flash any oos based rom or cm 13 rom.
Coz in latest beta built od oos firmware is changed.
So until you flash old firmware you won't be able to flash.

Can I install MIUI 8.7.26 (MIUI10) without worrying about ARB?

I have a Redmi Note 5 Global with MIUI 9.5.19, and I want to install 8.7.26 (MIUI10) because I can't unlock my bootloader yet (14 days to go).
My question is: can I do that safely without bricking my device? And can I go back to MIUI 9.5.19 if I wanted to?
Thanks!
I did same thing and it worked flawlessly.

You have a locked bootloader? You used a recovery ROM or a fastboot ROM (MiFlash tool)?
Thanks!

Just update through the phones settings with the zip file. You might need to try different MIUI 10 versions. There is always only one version you can go to from your current MIUI 9 version. Took me 4 tries but now it's working great

I flashed MIUI 8.7.26 through the method you mentioned without issues, but it has so many bugs, especially with notifications on lockscreen that bother me so much. Do you know if I can revert back to global stable MIUI 9 with the same method without issues with ARB?

How to install pixel rom on redmi note 5 pro?

Hello everyone.
I would like to install the Pixel ROM in my redmi note 5 pro, and I have some doubts.
I tried once to install this rom, at the time I used the MIUI 10 Android 9 beta and a version of TWRP for Android 9, but it gave an error 7 and I gave up.
Now I'm with MIUI 10.3.1.0 and I'm booting the TWRP pc with version 3.3.0.0. I would like to know if with these versions I could install the latest version of Pixel ROM.
I am also with ROOT, if I install the Pixel ROM I will need to do ROOT again? My root is with Magisk.
I used Google Translate to make this text. If you have any errors I apologize.

TWRP for MIUI 11 Global Android 10

I had no trouble getting TWRP to work on MIUI 10 11.0.6 Global or lower. I was using LRTWRP. I upgraded to MIUI 11 yesterday and can't find any TWRP that doesn't bootloop or black screen. Does anyone have any suggestions on TWRP that works with GLOBAL MIUI 11. THANKS!

Hi, this twrp work well with android 10, you can't decrypt data in first boot but return to encrypt data in the next boots... I don't really why....
Search in youtube: How to flash TWRP and ROOT Android 10 - REDMI NOTE 8
You have the link of TWRP 10 LR Team link (G drive)
EDIT: I have tried again and the decryption works perfectly, it was a problem with an application to modify the selinux, without installing, everything is perfect.
If automatically re-encrypts your data, the password is your phone pin.

Thank God and to you people..after one whole day of struggle... Successfully installed Android 10 update indonesian rom and rooted and twrp installed... i am happy now
I have been struggling all day long with getting my N8P rooted - ever since I decided to give Android 10 a try there is no option to get it done.. I tried everything - all TWRP versions I could find both official and unofficial.. MiFlash, Fastboot, ADB.
I tried also that method when you patch the file (boot.img) with Magisk mngr. I watched thatKonah the Begonia Guardian's famous video numerous times. I even "clean all and lock"ed my phone by accident at one point. No way it works with MIUI 11/Android 10. Android 9 - no problems. What's weird - the same version of twrp (I flash them with adb/fastboot) once works flawlessly, then I can't flash it at all - phone softbricked.. back and forth.. what the f?? I guess I need to wait for another root/twrp/Android 10 rom - unless you have any ideas??
Can you explain the steps you have followed?

By what way did you upgrade to Android 10 with your rooted Android 9 phone? Did you upgrade by twrp or other means?

Is the ROM booting up or are you bootlooping?
It was bootlooping each time I tried to install Magisk via TWRP.

your problem sounds more like data partition incompatibility
use CLEAN flash first (format data, not wipe) follow this tutorial
if it dosn't work, then start playing with FW
FW links
RN8 : https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/firmware/ginkgo/
RN8 T : https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/firmware/willow/
you can flash any region fw, (flash with recovery as normal zip)
just don't make mistake flashing ginkgo FW on willow or willow FW on ginkgo
you will break the phone !
