Global rom for the Mi Pad 4 Plus? - Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus Questions & Answers

Hi,
I just got my Mi Pad 4 plus today.
Unfortunately there is no Google play store installed and there does not seem to be any way to change the language settings beyond Chinese, Indian and English so far.
I know it is a fairly new product, but is there already some kind of global/international rom?
PS: I saw an article somewhere that it should be able to display Netflix in 1080p. Will that change with an open Bootloader or the use of a global rom?
Best regards
Chris

Greetings,
As far as I'm concerned there is no official Global ROM for the Mi Pad 4 Plus.
But, you should ask on the Mi Pad 4 Plus Forum here, since Forum is only for Mi Pad 4.

Ty, I already flagged my Thread for moving, haven't seen the Thread for the Mi Pad 4 Plus.

Actually it will receive the global rom! I was looking for answers and read that the mi pad 4 and 4 plus share the same ROM. So in my opinion I will try to flash the global variant of the mi pad 4.

Global rom / flash / warranty

Have you got any sources, that it will receive the global rom?
I am kind of nervous flashing the mipad 4 global ROM. Since the Mi pad 4 Plus would be a gift, i don't want to lose its warranty claim.

while waiting for the official global ROM, you can just side load apps to have Google services run on your Mi pad 4 plus.
and side-loading google apps will not terminate your warranty, since it doesn't require you to unlock bootloader or root

im planning to buy one but have read it does not support hd in streaming services such as netflix.. is there any way that it could be fixed by installing a global rom or something? kinda disappointing tbh

Sure, I already did that since I need the Google Playstore. But I prefer my OS in other languages than English for my daily use..

The rom for the Mi Pad 4 Plus is the same as Mi Pad 4
Xiaomi.eu made a global rom

I'll try that as soon as they are willing to let me unlock my device. Not my first from Xiaomi but having to wait 30 days seems to be new...

Netflix does work. However you cannot install it from the playstore. But if you download the APK from Netflix all works fine

@Edwin184 but it does not support hd right?

@jupcan,
Don't know how I can check for sure. However I have a standard HD account and if I play in Ultra HD it seems to work fine.

Now I'm running the MIUI 10 Global Beta and sometimes its buggy with the power management for however reason and when I return to the homescreen from watching streams in Amazon prime, netflix and so on.. For sure these are not critical problems and its useable as a daily driver. ??
It's unlocked and rooted with magisk, there are no issues with the fingerprint or faceunlock. And I frosted some draining and anoying applications.
Thanks to the site I found the MIUI 10 rom, TWRP, magisk and the flash Guide. God bless you xiaomi.eu ??

As you can read in the thread - yes.

Interestingly enough...I just got the 4 Plus from an Chinese eBay seller. Great! I started it up. I booted right to the lock screen (no password/lock on it), a quick swipe and it opened up and was running. Hmmmmm.... And it's running MIUI 10.1.1.0 (ODJCNFI). It looks like the box was opened up as there's no security tape at all on it, and then updated and put on a shelf until I bought it.
Looks like tonight I get to see if https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-pad-4-plus/how-to/guide-mi-pad-4-plus-lineageos-15-1-t3893264 will work for me =D

MI Note Pro - ROM

What is the actual need of installing a custom ROM for a MI Note Pro device outside of China for a basic user. Does the original ROM provided by Xiaomi not stable one, I believe the Google services can be installed in the original ROM itself. Does the inbuilt ROM not support English within MIUI skin.
Appreciate the feedback
Regards,
Nibin
I have been using the original rom since last August and managed to install all Google services. So far very stable and have not experienced anything wrong. It does support English.
So I don't see any reason you must use a custom rom, but because android is an open platform and the fun part is to modify things to make it more "you" so people like to have options to install custom rom.
That's my 2 cents, and yes, I am Chinese and I do have other xiaomi devices so I don't mind the Chinese apps, xiaomi accounts, etc that pre-installed on the device. If I were a nonchinese user, I would probably just move those in a folder called "not used" and forget about them.
I use the Chinese rom and yes it does support English and works really well the only thing with modified rom you will get is probably improved GPS and thats about it

UK too, I had GPS problems like once but the reason for that was miui update. So instead of downgrading I installed a modded rom and it fixed it

Hi Mr. Kahun
I see you are an experienced user of Mi Note Pro
I have received my Mi Note Pro for few days.
I dont have root and I can not install TWRP on my phone due to the phone had been upgraded to 7.1.5 and 6.1.29 before I got this phone
I researched some forum that 6.1.7 can be rooted. I managed to install on 6.1.7 Chinese Dev Rom via Updater. But it does not root
Can you share me something that I can root my phone
Thank you

MIUI update UK model

Hi there. I have a Xiaomi Mi 8 (from Three) which I have currently got the region set to India, mainly so that I can use Face Unlock, Theme Store, etc.
What I'd like to know is, if I continue to use the Mi 8 under the India region, will I still get the MIUI 10 update when it's released, as its not set to UK?
Thank you for any help on this matter.
Unlock your BL, install MIUI EU and you can freely choose any themes you want without any stupid restriction from Xiaomi.

Thank you for your response, but I haven't a clue how to unlock the BL and where I'd get a non hacked version of MIUI EU from.
I'd probably end up bricking the phone. lol
I'm just worried that if I keep using it under a different region, I won't receive the update.

Usually updates are pushed to phones based on the build number. If yours is a UK variant then it'll have a UK variant build number (most likely). I wouldn't have thought the region setting you put in when first starting & setting up the phone would make any difference. But don't quote me on that...

Many thanks for that.
I initially bought this phone as a work phone, but I actually enjoy using it more than my S8+, plus I've heard that MIUI 10 (plus Android Pie) is way better than MIUI 9.6.
Thanks again.

I'm actually not an owner of the phone myself (yet) still torn between this and the Honor 10. Hard to choose between such good budget phones these days.
Glad I could help though.

I can confirm that MIUI 10 based on Pie is WAY better. Just the "OK Google" hotword detection to fix and it'll be pretty much perfect.
I'm in the UK, use mine with both my work and personal SIM in - I'm running the latest ROM from Xiaomi.eu (MIUI 10.2 - Weekly 8.11.23).
It's great.
Also have installed the custom GCam for it, which is superb! I use the Xiaomi cam for video and portrait mode and the Google Camera for everything else - night mode is seriously impressive.

I bought my daughter the Honor 10 for her last birthday. It's a great looking phone with a very good camera/cameras. The back of the Honor 10 (blue) has to be seen to be believed, it looks amazing.
I must admit, the Xiaomi does have the edge when it comes to the screen, but it is a close battle.
I do love the camera slightly more (it's very close) on the Xiaomi too, but everything just seems a little more stable with the Honor 10 and it's EMUI skin on Android 8. I've had a few older apps that have refused to run on the Xiaomi.
That will hopefully change on the next Xiaomi update.
How

As no one is not giving a answer, so I'll try to help you out.
It's no matter what you have chosen, if you have the stock recovery, you'll always receive OTA updates. You can not change the stock recovery without an unlocked bootloader which can be achieved by the official tool provided by Xiaomi, for further information, use Google.
Unlocked bootloader gives you access to all functions of your device, and this means that you can use even a Pixel device Android "mod", and it's the closest to the native Android.
If you are using IM apps too often, you'll notice that your notifications are not being delivered just in time. also, MIUI has tons of bloatwares and limitations that won't allow you to use your device freely, and appearantly Xiaomi is collecting some "not innocent" data from your phone, so you might want to consider your privacy. These are just my perspective as an user that was on Android for 7 years, I hope you will enjoy your device.
Have a great night.

Perhaps you will need to update it manually. Get the very first Android 9 release from official forums, and try to sideload it.

Rooting chinese Mi 8 with unlocked bootloader and global ROM

Last week I purchased a Mi 8 from a mexican version of eBay, and I come from the legendary Mi A1.
I wanna have faith and think the seller did not have any bad intentions when he sold it to me, because it's a chinese version with MIUI 10 global ROM. It obviously has its bootloader unlock.
I'm aware of:
China Mi 8 + GLOBAL ROM + Unlocked booloader = safe
China Mi 8 + China ROM + Locked booloader = safe
China Mi 8 + GLOBAL ROM + Locked booloader = BRICK!​
To keep it short, I wanna be able to use Google Pay and Netflix, so I wanna root my Mi 8. As far as I read, I don't need to flash MIUI.eu, only root and use Magisk tricks.
I downloaded this TWRP: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-8/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-3-1110-t3869729, and another one from a site that I don't remember.
I didn't want to flash it because I don't want to risk bricking it ot bootlooping it. With the Mi A1 I needed to boot into a "temporary" TWRP and then flash the real thing, so I tried the same thing. The TWRPs didn't boot at all. So, is it safe to flash that latest TWRP? If I root and tinker with Magisk, will I be able to bypass Google's certification?
It is safe to flash that recovery. I'm afraid that you might have to decrypt your phone by formating data. Otherwise I really recommend you to flash Xiaomi.eu, it passes SafetyNet and it has less bloatware, you don't even need to flash Magisk. I was on Xiaomi.eu since RN3 MTK as that ROM is originally from my country and it was the best option and I still consider their ROM as one of the best if not the best.

So, the TWRP is only flasheable and not bootable? I don't mind the bloatware,as I find it actually useful, except for the Mi theme and app store (which I already uninstalled). Is the EU ROM aat the latest version? The day I got my phone I got the 10.2.1.0 update and installed it normally.
To root I have to do the verity dm thing, right?
Lastly. I only want to root and not flash any other ROM for the time being, because I like to edit root/system/media stuff and some build prop lines for fun. That's what I did with my A1 to entertain myself.
EDIT: The formatting data part is really a bummer. It took me a day to set everything up and I don't wanna do it again.

You have to flash twrp recovery > reboot to twrp recovery > root device with magisk and then reboot to miui.

It's safe. You can install each custom you want. You must remember only one thing. It's not allowed to install global miui and lock bootloader.

I am on official LOS 16 and it's very good and stable ROM for Mi8 but other custom roms are good as well. If you can buy Mi 8 much cheaper than Mi9 or k20pro that will be ok. If not I would prefer k20pro (mi 9t pro)

It depends on what are your preferences. If you will be use any custom rom there is not any reason to pay more for global version. Remember that if you would like to has locked bootloader you can use only chinese miui rom ( Chinese and English language only) on Chinese version.

[SOLVED] NO NFC on Redmi K20 PRO

Hello XDA Developers,
Any help needed, pleeaase.!
Probably I'm doing something wrong, or there is serious problem with my phone - no NFC. Not sure if it is ROM related or related to the phone itself.
Any help, troubleshooting, workarounds, mods will be really appreciated.
FYI: I Did not change the ROM, was the original with the phone, see details bellow:
Phone Tester says following:
No NFC support
This is what Phone Tester says about the ROM:
Model: Redmi K20 PRO
Device: raphaelin
OS Release: 9 - Pie
OS Build: PKQ1.181121.001
Firmware: V10.3.1.0.PFKINXM
Bought on AlieExpress, Seller: mi global store
(don't mix up with another seller XIAOMI mi store)
Update:
At the end and thanks to XDA Developerz I changed the ROM with TWRP and xiaomi.eu version. It fixed the issue. Now I have good ROM with TWRP recovery!
I'm not sure what that company did but here's what shows up for me.

Hello, Did you get your phone with Developer ROM, or already preinstalled Global ROM?
and also what Phone Tester says which CPU you have?
My Phone Tester says I have Qualcomm Technologies Inc SM8150
Also if you go to Phone Settings -> About the phone I have this:
Model number Redmi K20 Pro
Model Name M1903F11A
Kernel version: 4.14.83-perf-gf578f07
What are yours?

raphaelin is the device name of the Indian version of the K20 Pro. This hasn't been released yet, so there shouldn't be any official ROM's with that device name. This suggests that it isn't an official ROM. Did you buy it with a pre-installed global ROM?

Yes, I did. However what I found from 954wrecker is that he is is using Firmware V10.3.11.0 mine is 10.3.1.0
not sure if this where the problem is. Is there any hardware bus scanner available as an apk?

I know nothing about hardware bus scanners, however it would be recommended to install another ROM from a legitimate source. Your phone will most likely be unlocked already. The xiaomi.eu developer ROM 9.6.27 has had a few people say that it's stable. I'm still waiting to be able to unlock the bootloader, so haven't tried it myself yet.
Thanks guys, you almost convince me that it is a ROM issue. My phone is unlocked, which is obviously very good news.
Now, the question where to get the FULL ROM, and not the updates. I'm on V10.3.1.0, some people have 10.3.11.0 here.

Now, the question where to get the FULL ROM, and not the updates. I'm on V10.3.1.0, some people have 10.3.11.0 here.

This thread lists the official and xiaomi.eu ROMs
https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/how-to/redmi-k20-pro-firmware-10-3-8-0-9-6-13-t3939647
I'm guessing you want a global ROM, so it's the xiaomi.eu ROMs, these are listed under EU. Looking on the forums there seems to be an audio issue with the latest stable release.
Please flash xiaomi.eu firmware k20 pro supports NFC and it works well.
Sent from my Redmi K20 Pro using Tapatalk
Mine support it , yours too , just factory reset it
Thanks to everyone. At the end I flashed xiaomi.eu 10.3.12 and it fixed the issue.
I have the same issue.
Received my k20 pro yesterday and spent hours and hours to configure it properly (tons of apps and settings)
But no NFC...
Rom MIUI GLOBAL 10.3.1. 1
is there a way to update firmware without erasing everything??
Thank you

Good question! Not sure, better to ask not in this thread, but in separate thread will be much faster response. Are you planning to install TWRP? Because if you plan to do so, ask how you can try to do this with TWRP.
I can confirm that xiaomi.eu 10.3.12 fixed my issue with NFC and also I can tell that 10.3.9 chinese rom does not have issue with NFC either (why Chinese ROM you may ask? - because it is full image ROM, and initially I made mistake with TWRP did not decrypt the filesystem, I did not know the password at the that time which was my PIN, so I flashed it twice) Avoiding my mistake you can go directly to xiaomi.eu 10.3.12 with TWRP.
I have found that Redmi k20 pro has hardware related touch problems. Please check and confirm that.

Yes touch issues only activates when you use more than two fingers at a time.
Eg - while playing games or when playing pubg

Hello XDA Developers,
Any help needed, pleeaase.!
Probably I'm doing something wrong, or there is serious problem with my phone - no NFC. Not sure if it is ROM related or related to the phone itself.
Any help, troubleshooting, workarounds, mods will be really appreciated.
FYI: I Did not change the ROM, was the original with the phone, see details bellow:
Phone Tester says following:
No NFC support
This is what Phone Tester says about the ROM:
Model: Redmi K20 PRO
Device: raphaelin
OS Release: 9 - Pie
OS Build: PKQ1.181121.001
Firmware: V10.3.1.0.PFKINXM
Bought on AlieExpress, Seller: mi global store
(don't mix up with another seller XIAOMI mi store)
Update:
At the end and thanks to XDA Developerz I changed the ROM with TWRP and xiaomi.eu version. It fixed the issue. Now I have good ROM with TWRP recovery!

Call recording in Xiaomi redmi 9 EEA

Hi! I have a xiaomi redmi 9 bought from Romania, with eea version miui 11.0.4.0. It seems I cannot record calls because this system app doesn't exist here. I tried with another Google play apps, but it cannot record calls but a hiss, the ambiental sounds or a silent audio. Do you think there is any chance to make possible on this phone to have a working call recording app? I read some forums saying that the China or India roms should have this built-in app.
So... Can you help me, please?
ALso when i install miui dialer, it crashes. There is any way to install original miui dialer, and making it work?

Hi Rizelgeorgel,
Hope You're Doing Great !
1st Of All You Have To Unlock The Bootloader (Official Bootloader Unlocking Timing From Xiaomi Is 07 Days). After That You Can Flash Redmi 9 Prime ROM & China ROM. These ROMs Have Builtin Call Recording Feature And Its Very Good.
Hope This Will Help You.
Thanks,

There Is One Thing Which I Want To Bring It To Your Knowledge. China ROM Is Available In MIUI 12 With No Google Apps (But You Can Install GAPPS) While Indian ROM Has MIUI 11 With Google Apps, So Decision Is Yours.
In Addition To That, Never Lock The Bootloader Till You Have A Serious Problem
