Guide: Reverse-engineering Xiaomi OTA Updates to Find Unreleased Versions - Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Guides, News, & Discussion

This is something I've been looking into in order to find newer, older, and unreleased updates for the Mi Mix 2.
Ideally, I'd like to figure out a way to get Xiaomi's nightly builds, which go out to only beta testers. I think I'm close, but any help I can get would be awesome.
I currently have two methods. One of them is rather difficult, the other is rather easy. Let's start with the easy one.
Method 1: Example 1
http://update.miui.com/updates/mi-updateV6.php?v=MIUI-7.9.21&c=7.1&d=chiron_global&b=X
This is a URL which asks for an update to the unreleased MIUI 9 7.9.21 global edition.
If you visit this URL, you get the following response:
Code:
{"UserLevel":9,"LatestVersion":{"type":"rom","device":"chiron_global","name":"XM-MIMIX2-GLOBAL 7.9.21","description":"MIUI\u5347\u7ea7","descriptionUrl":"http:\/\/update.miui.com\/updates\/updateinfo\/7.9.21\/chiron_global_0_7.9.21_4494ccfcc506caca9904efb74b489e0a.html","md5":"7f94ca393fae77c6171e6c7a551bea2e","filename":"miui_MIMIX2Global_7.9.21_7f94ca393f_7.1.zip","filesize":"1.6G","codebase":"7.1","version":"7.9.21","branch":"X"},"UpdateList":[{"type":"rom","device":"chiron_global","name":"XM-MIMIX2-GLOBAL 7.9.21","description":"","descriptionUrl":"http:\/\/update.miui.com\/updates\/updateinfo\/7.9.21\/chiron_global_0_7.9.21_4494ccfcc506caca9904efb74b489e0a.html","md5":"7f94ca393fae77c6171e6c7a551bea2e","filename":"miui_MIMIX2Global_7.9.21_7f94ca393f_7.1.zip","filesize":"1.6G","codebase":"7.1","version":"7.9.21","branch":"X"}],"IncrementalUpdateList":[],"MirrorList":["http:\/\/bigota.d.miui.com"],"Signup":{"version":"","total":"","rank":""},"AuthResult":0,"ForceUpdate":0
We can piece together looking at this that the update file can be downloaded at:
http://bigota.d.miui.com/7.9.21/miui_MIMIX2Global_7.9.21_7f94ca393f_7.1.zip
Method 1 Example 2
It was announced today that there was a new Chinese stable release pushed only to some phones called 8.5.7.0.NDECNEF. We can modify the parameters in the URL to get this:
http://update.miui.com/updates/mi-updateV6.php?v=MIUI-V8.5.7.0.NDECNEF&c=7.1&d=chiron&b=S
This returns the following:
Code:
{"UserLevel":9,"LatestVersion":[],"UpdateList":[{"type":"rom","device":"chiron","name":"XM-MIMIX2 V8.5.7.0.NDECNEF","description":"","descriptionUrl":"http:\/\/update.miui.com\/updates\/updateinfo\/V8.5.7.0.NDECNEF\/chiron_0_V8.5.7.0.NDECNEF_a9374e7e6aa4f38a22fd58aae29337ce.html","md5":"487f34ee14e84d0eb9ed280a059bcc65","filename":"miui_MIMIX2_V8.5.7.0.NDECNEF_487f34ee14_7.1.zip","filesize":"1.4G","codebase":"7.1","version":"V8.5.7.0.NDECNEF","branch":"F"}],"IncrementalUpdateList":[],"MirrorList":["http:\/\/bigota.d.miui.com"],"Signup":{"version":"","total":"","rank":""},"AuthResult":0,"ForceUpdate":0}
And that lets us know that the update can be found at:
http://bigota.d.miui.com/V8.5.7.0.NDECNEF/miui_MIMIX2_V8.5.7.0.NDECNEF_487f34ee14_7.1.zip
So now that we see that we have a way to query for downloads, let's look into some of the parameters.
At a minimum we need the following:
v=MIUI-V8.5.7.0.NDECNEF - This is the version with which you are querying.
c=7.1 - This is the build of Andoid. It's Android 7.1 so we put 7.1
d=chiron - This is the device. For Chinese Mix 2 firmwares it's chiron. For global it's chiron_global
You might also notice this:
b=S - S means stable. X means weekly. Actually, there is a whole list as follows, but not sure how accurate it is:
Code:
«S» — monthly build
«X» — weekly build
«D» — daily build
«E» — emegency build
«F» — stable build
«A» — experimental build
«I» — internal build
«T» — top secret build
«U» — unstable build
On top of this, there are more possible parameters. I will get around to these when talking about Method 2.
Right now, I can't access anything but weekly and stable builds, so there are not really any undiscovered/unannounced/internal builds that I've been able to find. But I think we are on the right track to being able to find them. I'm hoping that other people can continue looking using this information, and we'll see if we can find anything. Stay tuned while I update this post with Method 2, which is much more complex and much more likely to yield results.

Isn't this link (http://bigota.d.miui.com/7.9.21/miui_MIMIX2Global_7.9.21_7f94ca393f_7.1.zip) global miui 9?
I say because Chinese dev rom (miui 9) is the same miui version (7.9.19 which is a lower firmware number)

I used sdat2img.py to convert the system data to something flashable. Then I looked up which partitions need to be flashed where by checking a flash-all.bat file, and followed that format using fastboot to flash each partition.
But... there's no reason to flash this. It's not a public release and it doesn't really do anything better than other choices. I think flashing xiaomi.eu is a better choice.

Caveat is, I think it's actually older than the most recent developer build.

The global dev builds will always be newer and include the most recent bug fixes and security patches, so that's no surprise the stable was built before any of the recent developer ROMs.

This has been answered and mentioned several times unfortunately. Please use the search function before posting threads
You cannot go from STABLE to BETA without unlocking the bootloader, and you especially cannot do it from the updater. It must be flashed. I'm going to assume that you are trying to "update" to the new version with Android Pie. The Mi Mix 2S just a day or two ago received stable MIUI 10 with 9.0. Be patient and wait for the update for us as it should be arriving soon. Beta versions were intended for developers and for testing purposes and may have bugs. It really is not worth the trouble of unlocking the bootloader and jumping to a test version for a newer version of Android even more so when a "stable" version is just around the corner. Most things will remain unchanged from MIUI 10 based on 8.1.0 to MIUI 10 based on 9.0. People have been bricking their devices due to little experience with Xiaomi smartphones, and it would be terrible to see another one join the list.
How long we wait?

Sorry for the late reply. I believe it may possibly have a vendor ROM. Your phone should have updated over a month ago to MIUI 10. At this point I believe the only solution would be to unlock the bootloader in order to flash the latest version. Unfortunately this takes about 30 days after the unlock is requested.
That's the 3UK version of global.
No updates as of yet,either be patient or unlock bootloader and flash global stable of Pie.
Yes. And to be honest, DO NOT rush for 9.0. There is severe battery drain on 10.2.2.0 and 10.2.3.0. I used to get 6+ hours of SOT (screen on time), on 10.2.2.0 I would get about 5hrs, on the latest 10.2.3.0 I get 4 hours. Others have complained about the same. In my opinion, the added features aren't worth the battery life lost.

We have 3 Mi8's in our house
Personally I am using the Mi-Globe version " globeROM_v10_dipper_9.3.21_cfg" it is fantastic! It has all of the features such as dark mode, AOD options, face unlock, charging animations, the best themes from all over the world and zero ads.
On the other 2 phones we have the official 10.2.3. While its not as good as 9.3.21 the battery life is still about 8 hours SOT.

Upgrade to Pie Global Beta from Global stable (locked bl)

Is it possible? I could on Mix 2s easily via recovery.
It is possible. You have to download the latest Oreo based beta version, which is MIUI 8.9.7, and install this package via the software update section in the settings. Once you are on the Oreo beta, you'll get the newest beta via the software updater.

I can confirm that it works. Started from Global stable 10.0.3.0, flashed the global beta 8.9.7 and then updated to beta 8.10.25 and the last step was to beta 10.11.2

Hi @ricpicpr, what is best way to run Global beta, with twrp and root? In my theory is the always before install new beta, flash back stock boot.img, than install update and than again flash twrp and root. Is it correct?

Well im trying to understand this, because since my Mi8 is unlocked and rooted for the first time i have to update it with the weekly update. I received OTA notification and i have downloaded the OTA update (8.12.7) but when i confirm to Updater to apply the weekly update my phone restarted in twrp and the update failed. So yes maybe the way is to restore the original recoevery, flash the last weekly version and then flash twrp and root (with magisk in my case): I don't like very this, a bit too complicated but for now i can't imagine better and shorter ways

If you have TWRP, you can just install the FULL ROM ZIP of betas or stable and flash with TWRP without issues. Just download them from the official XIAOMI website. You cannot install the incremental updates that come from the internal ROM updater software. It only downloads the difference in the ROM versions, and it will fail because files that need patched have changed and fail the validation process. You might have to re-root and install the recovery after you flash.

I'm worried about coming back from beta to stable. As I read on web with ARB u can't make downgrade (from newest version to older). So in my theory is possible to came back from beta to stable just in one case and that is little bit...
Example:
Last beta version was released on sunday 15.5.2018
Last stable version WILL/WAS be relesed thursday 19.5.2018
So u have 2 days for make jump from beta to stable because on next sunday 22.5.2018 will be released another beta which will be again newest than last stable version or dont make any update of beta after release stable version.
Ofcourse I can be wrong

Uhm...i think the ARB check the Android version only. So if you are on Pie you can't go back to Oreo. Only this

11.0.3.0 Mi9T Pro OTA update

Does anyone else received this update on the Mi9T Pro? I have an EEA version and the update just popped up today. It looks like the update to Android 10 and miui 11 in one go. Just wanted to know if anyone else installed this. The current version is good enough for me now not keen on the update, specially if it brings bugs.

Yes, me too, going to install it later today, when I'm off work, make sure you do a full twrp backup first.
Yes, I saw on a facebook group that some EU users already got it. But no feedbacks yet.
Still no OTA for global the version.

Installed and rooted via patched image a few hours ago and everything is working smoothly. The setting menu is much more streamlined and the fingerprint scanner works much better now! I haven't installed TWRP since I don't know which version works, maybe someone here can share which version works for them.

First I would like to thank you your comment and advice. I was planning to upgrade but not just yet. However I don't think you would have to be that drastic and your comment may also scare others.(don't have to be a scaremonger) No one will hack my device or steal my data just because I wait on an update?!!
I have already tested miui11 on my prev k20pro and I found lots of bugs. I know this is an official update, but we all know this can still be full of bugs. I do like xiaomi (otherwise I wouldn't buy the mi9t pro) specially because they provide frequent updates. However this isn't my first xiaomi device and taking my previous experience with buggy updates I just wanted to be extra careful before rolling out the update, mainly because my BL is locked and couldn't flash the downgrade immediately if I find the new version unusable.
Luckily others already provided positive feedbacks so I'm sure I will do the update shortly.

based on my exp, if you using twrp you must clean (wipe system and data) install the miui 11 zip file because miui 10 and miui 11 are different android based. will be much problem if you just flash the zip file without wipe the data partition.

I think it is the chinese version.
I have installed the android 11 version you mentioned above. But i have gone back to the original android 10 because the developer android 11 is not ready for daily use. But it works.
If you like to install, copy the file to the root directory, then enable the developer option and use the build-in updater to choose the file manually.
But be aware, all data will be lost.
Enjoy it!
Does anyone know if this device is still getting software updates?
Looking to buy a charger 44w for this phone. No luck

Appreciate that you keep updating on this. I've just bought a used nex 3s and would like to install the latest android available, doesn't matter official or custom ROM. I've search around and this post you made seems to be the only discussion I can find about Nex 3s ROM. Any advices on the latest stablel android for this phone please?
Thank you!

the links are dead, can you please re-upload the latest ocean version? it is kinda strange that on vivo cn's website, the latest DL link is still for non ocean version, where as for nex 3, latest DL is ocean version.
or, if you previously downloaded 7.6.6 off vivo's server, do you have the last 10 digits of the zip file, if yes, will try to see if i can grab it off vivo's server, many thanks.

How do you make a FastBoot file?
Hello! Thanks for making this for us. I have a China version of Mi 11 Ultra. i am currently running the EU version 12.5.17.0 (xiaomi.eu_multi_MI11Pro_MI11Ultra_V12.5.17.0.RKACNXM). I wanted to install the enhanced version as well. Can I install it directly? Will I loose all my data if I do so? If there is a way, could you explain the proper way (steps) to install this rom you provided on my version of the device please?
Thanks and regards,
Siddhesh

Hi! Thanks for your humble reply! I have done enough research already. I asked from the point of view 'if I can install this fastboot version' since I have a higher version of the ROM (but which is NOT Enhanced version and is also an EU ROM). So basically, can I upgrade from EU version to this enhanced version you posted?
Thanks,
Sidd

If you change ROM branch ( move from your Xiaomi EU version to any other, EEA, Global, Stock Chinese etc etc) you MUST format data after flashing or you may find you get stuck in a boot loop until you do. This is due to possible partition differences between the ROM branches.

Don't forget, first boot on any new ROM will take ages, so as long as you see the boot logo, just wait. Don't be tempted to stop or reboot, just sit back and wait
