1. EU --> Things like google assistant, and Transalations and anything non-Chineese is better fixed here.
https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/how-is-this-different-than-miui-com.18629/
2. Available but issues currently, better stick with MIUI8 for exposed for now
3. Raise request with xiaomi to unblock bootloader --7 days wait at max --> unlock using Mi tool--> flash twrp -- > voila
4. Yes. You would need to flash superSU / Magisk in Xiaomi EU site everytime.

Thanks if i have other question i write here. Thanks

I have the xiaomi.eu rom.
I used TWRP2.x to flash:
1. miui_MINotePro_6.6.17_603d96bfe6_5.1.zip
2. superSU
3. boot loop!
tried booting into recovery: no recovery anymore, MI logo boot loop!
So i did:
1. unlocked my phone with MiFlashUnlock
2. used fastboot, flashed TWRP3.0
3. flashed miui_MINotePro_6.6.17_603d96bfe6_5.1.zip again
4. flashed superSU
5. boot loop!
finally:
1. fastboot, flashed TWRP3.0 again
2. used TWRP3.0 to flash the old xiaomi.eu dev rom
3. boot OK
does anyone know how to flash MIUI 8 when not being on an original MIUI Dev rom?

i know. i flashed the xiaomi.eu miui 8 rom aftereards and it's fine.
but i would prefer the chinese developer rom. the original developer rom allows to buy paid themes, while the xiaomi.eu rom only provides free themes in the theme store.
Impressions from the new Rom? Battery life?

If you have unlocked your bootloader, use directly MI flash in fastboot mode with fastboot rom.
I have flashed 5.11.26 via fastboot like on a guide on en.miui and it worked but the bootloader won't get unlocked. Can I flash Miui 8 and don't care about boot loader cause I don't want to put custom ROM or will I need to do unlocking even to flash Miui 8?

underlines, how do you do with Gapps when update to Miui 8? Is there a clean way to flash them?

Nope, I didn't try. Before I've unlocked my bootloader via the form on miui.com, I couldn't get the official ROM to boot, as soon as I flashed gapps + supersu. So I flashed the xiaomi.eu ROM which contains all gapps in the ROM already. But yeah, I would prefer to use the original ROM, since paid themes are only available for the official version, plus it contains the Mi Store with all the pirated apps.

So, did you get back to dev?
I have succeeded in flashing Miui 8 over an old version of Miui 7 then I installed gapps with an en.miui tuto but now I have problems installing superSu to fully root the phone and use Titanium to restore everything I had.
Any advice.?
Note if you try to unlock bootloader: it worked for me only after getting Miui 8.
don't bother with china rom, too much bloatware, location probably not working, chinsese functions not disabled. Use the xiaomi.eu rom, it's much better, it's the china dev rom but transformed into a global rom.

Don't tell what you don't know...
"probably"...
Word that indicates how reliable it's all you're saying.
Location works, "your" bloatwares deactivated with the simple native root of rom.
Use it before denigrate.
ho it seem that you have no clue about the differences (except languages and gapps) between chinese, global and xiaomi.eu rom,. have fun with the rom

I prefer the original chinese rom, it's less bugged, has the chinese mi store and the full theme store (i have mi credits and also use paid themes). but i'm on xiaomi.eu since miui8 came out. i'm just too lazy nowadays to bother with my devices for more than 1 hour, and this tinkering can take hours and hours. if xiaomi will not release an SD820 or SD821 device with 2K screen and at least 6" i will be out soon, but i will miss miui so damn much
They say it will be 5.5 inches I would also prefer 5.7-5.8 inches at least

[Face ID] [Magisk Module]

Note: Do not try on miui based custom rom or any other rom. You may brick your device that way.
Hey guys,
Face ID from Redmi Note 5 Pro was recently ported to Redmi Note 4. Now it's working on our device too ( Mi Max 2). I have packed this port in Magisk Module. I personally tested this on Global Stable 9.5.1.0. You can test on your phone running stock miui. Download the file from link given below and flash in Magisk manager. Reboot the device and check if "Add face data" is there in lock screen settings. If it's there you are good to go. Follow the instructions in that option and enjoy.

It's working on my eu latest stable rom. Thanks
Can I use it on Global Beta ROM?
I tried using in on global beta 8.3.22 but it gave me a ui error just before system ui could start....making the phone unusable. Then....I guess it’s not working on global beta. [emoji12]

You can uninstall magisk to come out of that error. Then again flash it with required modules.
Works great for 9.2.1.0. But in 9.5.1.0 china stable(mi globe rom) face id works but pattern unlock stops working. You cant unlock with pattern. Need to modify the flash file.

I had to dirty flash the whole rom to solve it.
Do I need anything else other than module itself? Isn't it self contained?

Thats what I thought. Then you weren't answering me when you wrote to flash it again with the needed module? That's why I asked you whether I needed any other modules.

Steps to flash Havoc 2.9 by snek? Do you NEED to unlock bootloader beforehand?

Title. I flashed another rom on another phone a while ago and unlocking it was relatively easy, but I read here that you need to *request* unlocking for the mi max 2 via your Mi Account. Is all that necessary to install havoc? another question I have is how similar is it to miui? Can you use the Themes app? or is it just gone then? I just don't know if I should go through aaaaaaaall the process just to jump to Android 9. I just wanna play a game that requires Android 9+, and the device currently shows as incompatible cause miui 11 is 7.1.1 based.

Yes you need to request unlock permission from Xiaomi to unlock bootloader and you would have to use your Mi Account. Havoc os is Aosp based rom so there isn't Themes app but you can use substratum for theming. And there are 2 other files you need to flash along with rom - quick charge fix and in call volume fix. If you are doing it just for a game, i don't recommend. Also the unlocking permission will take a couple of days. Plus the audio in pie roms is crackling in some roms so you will have to use Viper or Dolby and tune the settings for better audio.

MIUI 12 Redmi Note 8 {GINKGO} OFFICIAL GLOBAL RELEASE

Hi Guys,
Finally waiting is over. It was officially released MIUI 12 for Redmi Note 8 today
Download Link OTA
Let's discuss pros and cons on this Rom.
1. Performance
2. Battery
3. Features
4. Improvement
5. Found Bugs or Lags
Cheers
Downloaded via DownMi. I cannot install it as i get the message ''packet cannot be verified. Sorry flash to this stable version is not allowed'' . Do i have to install via Recovery Mode? Do i have to unlock bootloader?
It's for testers registered in program. you can sideload it via TWRP
When i click on update button in settings i get a 2gb update of V11.0.11.0PCOMIXM . I didn't receive the newest v12 update yet
Nothing Android 10 Gesture
Do you know when it´s going to arrive as an OTA update? i think this beta is only for the ones who are registered in the MI PILOT

Hello, sorry for this noob question. For sideloading (TWRP), what's the installation instruction?
I think this version is only for BETA TESTERS because I download and try to flash and I can't, always got different errors, so if you are registered in Mi Pilot sure you can flash, I have locked bootloader ...

Question Google play uncertified & next steps

I have purchased a mi 11 Ultra from CEX in the UK and updated as soon as I got home so I am now on 13.04 Global.
When I started to set up the device I noticed I can't add cards to google wallet or use Netflix because it isn't certified. I've checked and the device isnt rooted.
Can anyone help and advise how I resolve this?
I would advise installing the Xiaomi EU rom. That ROM passes certification.

No root required. Just need an unlocked bootloader and sounds like yours may already be unlocked. You'll be able to see from Developer options.
