Hi XDA,
I want to ask about thread forum for Mi 8 EE (Explorer Edition - codename: ursa) why not available in XDA? I just see only Mi 8 (codename: dipper) and Mi 8 SE (codename: sirius) thread forum...
I hope mod/admin will make new forum thread for Mi 8 EE (codename: ursa) user. Thank you. I'm sorry if this wrong place for posting.
Warm Regards,

It would also be great if ROMs were multi Mi8 Flashable. The hardware in my Mi 8 Pro (codename: equuleus) is the same as the ursa, just without the 3d Face unlock - so ursa ROMs work great on the equuleus - however dipper ROMS are lacking the drivers for camera, in-screen fingerprint sensor, speakers which are visibly different on the ursa and equuleus.
By cooking all of the required elements and having an aroms installer or some clever scripting, it would be possible to have one ROM flashable on multiple Mi 8 devices.
Maybe that is th reason that there is only one thread (as well as the rareity of the Mi 8 EE (at the moment) not to mention the Mi 8 Pro (equuleus) which was released in China a few days ago.

That's a good question. All I can say is that my fingerprint sensor did not work when I flashed mi8 ROMS but it does work when I flashed EE ROMS. My understanding is that the only difference is the 3D face unlock missing.

I bought my Mi 8 Pro on the day of release in Beijing. The sale started at 10:00 and there were 2 units left when I bought mine at 10:20. When I arrived back home, I started the unlock process and realised that I would have to wait 720 hours as well. SO, I contacted the driver in Beijing who took me to the great wall and to the XIaomi store on my last day there - He was also a Xiaomi fans and only had Mi phones for the past few years. He kindly sent me his Mi ID and password, and all of the SMS verification codes he received, and bingo... I managed to unlock the bootloader of my Mi 8 Pro instantly!
Surprised that someone in China has not clocked on to this to sell this as a service. Try contacting someone from your seller (Aliexpress, small sellers more likely to help out) if they would not mind creating a Mi Account for you to unlock the bootloader - It may save you some waiting. Verified accoiunts in China can unlock instantly.

I wonder why all Mi 5x users.. even those who have a legit and official rom are affected by this so irritating upgrade. I need to unlock my bootloder asap and this update is killing me! It can be easily identify if a Mi 5x rom is authentic or fake.. so if you have a FAKE rom.. wait for the update to complete and for someone like me who have OFFICIAL and AUTHENTIC rom.. should not have to suffer with this inconvenience! This is not fair, and what Xiaomi doing to us is not right!!
For me my bootloader is unlocked since beginning september, with China Dev 7.9.7.
The single problem it's the vpn requirement.
If you downgrade to this version you can't unlock bootloader ?

Hello guys
Just got a quick question for your guys. I want to buy MI 8, and i am getting MI 8 Chinese model with bootloader unlocked and xiaomi.eu rom installed, now i want to ask that is it safe to buy that model? I want to install HavocOS or pixel experience, is these roms support Chinese variant?
It's completely safe to do what you want to do provided you follow the information on the threads here. I also bought a Chinese variant mi 8 and have installed numerous roms.

Thank you so much for your reply. I just got my hands on Chinese MI8 and installed xiaomi.eu rom as my first rom
SOLVED.
Please close this thread.
So here I've gathered some information found in the internet but I still have some confusions. Please help me.
RAPHAEL - K20 Pro - XXXCNXX - Chinese
RAPHAELEEAGlobal - MI 9T - XXXEUXX - European
RAPHAELININ - K20 Pro - XXXINXX - Indian
RAPHAELRUGlobal - MI 9T - XXXRUXX - Russian
RAPHAELGlobal - ??? - XXXMIXX - ???
Which region is RAPHAELGlobal and what's it called?
Which region has call recording?
Which region gets updates fast (except China)?
And lastly I know that the Indian variant has no NFC but I don't know if all the others have.
Just buy a k20 pro/mi 9t aka Raphael and install miui.eu for the best stock setup without ads, with nfc, call recording.
There's only two models Raphael and Raphaeli. The latter which is Indian and without nfc.

The global version is for all others regions that don't have a specific region ROM and is for the global version of the Mi 9T Pro. You might want to call it global Global.
Europe and global ROMs don't have call recording.
So far, for MIUI 11, India came first, then European, global has not got a MIUI 11 release yet. But there's no guarantee that will always be the same order in future.
All other versions have NFC.

Thanks for clarifying. I'm going to buy this device and was really confused about which to get. I'll go for the "global global" version.
@Robbo.5000 can I buy a Chinese K20 Pro and flash global rom in it? Is there any global rom for Chinese K20 Pro? As the global version is called MI 9T?

The phone is Mi 9T Pro outside of China and India.
Yes, you can flash any region ROM on any region phone. (So can flash a global ROM for the Mi 9T Pro onto a Chinese K20 Pro.) OTA updates will continue to work.
You need to unlock the bootloader to be able to cross flash ROMs from different regions and you will not be able to lock it after. You will brick the phone if you try to relock the bootloader with a ROM for a different region installed.

They only brick their phones because they forget to change the flash option and so accidentally lock the bootloader. I have pointed that out in my above post.

Thanks, where can I find all the fastboot ROMs? It seems Xiaomi changed "en.miui.com/a-234.html" this link, I wasn't active on the development side of Android for some times so I'm kinda lost.

These are untouched and taken directly from the Xiaomi download pages. Probably the best source for Xiaomi ROMs outside of official Xiaomi website.

The old global MIUI site had moved to the new Mi Community site. Check it out here https://c.mi.com/global.
The article you link to has been moved to the Mi Community site, but recently, within the last month or so, I've no longer been able to find it.
I believe I have posted links to the new version previously here, so if I searched my xda posts I might be able to find the link to it's new home.

Most people are saying that you should leave your phone to discharge completely, then plug it in and let it reboot by itself.
Also found this reddit post which seems to describe the exact issue you're experiencing:

thx... yea tried that with discharging the battery but it didn't work... I still haven't tried dismantling it (don't have proper tools to heat it up), so I'm trying to see options before that...
Redmi Note 9 and Redmi Note 9 are NOT same devices and they does NOT share roms.
The only difference is the 48mp Vs 64mp and the 18w Vs 30w on the note 9s and 9 pro respectively. Also isn't the 9s the Indian variant, while the 9 pro is the global one..?
So apparently the 9s is exclusively Indian, and the 9 pro has an Indian variant (which is the same as the Indian 9s) and an international variant (which is different to the Indian variants), right?

This thread is about the Redmi note 9.. the OP has asked about the redmi note 9 pro (eu model), to which i sent a link to the redmi note 9 pro forum in my third post. if you're not gonna help, then dont post here, if a mod decides to move or close the thread then he can do that. so far everything you've said is inaccurate:

u ok mate?
yes, the OP is not asking anything related to the note 9, but i already told him that, i dont think we need you to repeat my message thanks.
You don't need to flood the thread.
You don't need to repeat YOUR messages.
I hoped for answers and solutions and got the title discussion and aint nothing closer to solving my issue
MiForum has nothing as well ....
Just flash stock MIUI using SP Flash Tool, if you are on REDMI NOTE 9 (MERLIN).
@VD171 Can you read mate, he already said he has the note 9 pro, ive already mentioned the forum for that device, and havent repeated a single message.
(Also the note 9 pro doesnt have an mtk SoC, it uses a snap 720g..)
As the title says it all, Poco M2 (SHIVA) and M2 reloaded are identical (with M2 having 6GB RAM) running currently on MIUI 12.5.7 Android 11 Indian Variant.
Will Redmi 9 (LANCELOT) ROM work on M2 ? Or should I wait for LAVA ROM ?
I have seen posts saying Poco X3 Pro 9Bhima) rom works on Vayu units (one has NFC the latter doesn't)
I couldn't unlock my Redmi 9 bootloader, at first it said couldn't verify smth then I signed out and in again into my Mi account and now the Mi Unlock app on my PC says to wait 168h
Am I supposed to unlock bootloader before or after downgrading from MIUI 13 to MIUI 12?
Thanks
