Mi 9 - This MIUI version can´t be installed on this device - Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers

Hi all,
i hope someone has an idea how to fix my phone.
The Story:
I bought the 12GB/256Gb Mi 9 Transparent Edition (just sold in China) - it was unlocked by the seller and flashed with official EEA Rom. I bound it to my Mi Account and installed TWRP and then formatted the Phone. I tried xiaomi.eu MIUI 11 rom, but was not happy. So i thought i get the official Global version and flashed it with miFlash Tool. Unfortunately (And i hate myself for it, as i flashed loads of Xioami Phones before), i forgot to change to Clean all - instead it was set to Clean All and Lock - So now the Bootloader is locked again.
And now i own a 600€ pile of junk.
I tried to Unlock again - but mi_unlock told me that "Current Account is not bound to this Device" - and i should go to the Developers Option to bind them. - Well, i would do so if i would not stuck in Recovery (This MIUI version can´t be installed on this device) or in Fastboot Mode.
Is there any chance (beside EDL method, which i do not have the courage to do) to somehow fix this?
I really appreciate all help!
Thanks

If you still have warranty where you bought, take it to them and they'll fix it for you. If not, your only hope left is tespoint EDL.

Did you try to flash latest Chinese Stable rom? Probably you have the message because you cannot flash the Global version as it was Chinese only.

Well yes, i tried, but MiPro Flasher is telling me ''you are allowed to flash the newest develop version published by miui forum from stable version only''
I loose my hope already
Thanks

So flash that, the latest China Beta then, take it from there.

So when you try to flash the Stable version it says something about the Developer version? strange! try the official tool maybe ( Miflash).

Thanks, i tried with official tool, but to flash via it, Bootloader has to be unlocked - and as written in my 1st post, i locked it by accident. I contacted the shop where i bought it, they said it could take up to 3 month (Back to China...) -
Cannot believe that there is no other way tough.

beside EDL- u can connect with Mi Flash Tool -- only can install China ROm i had sam prob with Mix 2s i did same and i tried many many times with mi flash tool finnaly its done

Did you try to push the rom using fastboot command? you can try this maybe:
https://in.c.mi.com/thread-334-1-1.html
But I still don't understand why, if you try to flash the Stable version it says "you are allowed to flash the newest develop version...".

Flash Global Developer via Recovery locked Bootloader

Hi everyone
First, I didn't find an answer form my question via search. Sorry if there is already one.
I'm now with an Global Mi 8 with Global ROM MIUI 9 9.6 (9.6.4.0 (OEAMIFD) and locked Bootloader. That's how my MI 8 got out of the box (so, the official Global version).
I want to flash the Gloabl Developer ROM 8.8.30 from the official MIUI Homepage (http://en.miui.com/download-346.html). As there is also a ZIP ROM Version for flashing via Recovery I want to ask wether it's safe to flash this. The verification process said no problems, just that all Data is erased. This is ok.
Is it safe to flash this way or is there a danger for a brick if the Bootloader is not unlocked?

It's safe to switch from global stable to global beta rom thru the updater, it won't brick your device.

Hello,
I was in your case with the same version.
No problem for me, I downloaded the version like you via the link then going through system update of the phone.
My bootloader is not unlocked
I'm currently on China Stable (miui9), bootloader isn't unlocked yet, what would happen if I flash globlal beta rom (miui10) (zip) via updater recovery?
It worked. Thanks

If your device is Chinese, you gonna brick it without unlocked bootloader.
So unlock it, flash then stay unlocked.
Is it possible to downgrade from 10 beta to stable 9 with recovery rom?
For the people who did. Did it erase everything on the phone? I am thinking of trying miui 10 but am too lazy to re-setup everything

Yes, it erases everything, back up all your data first, and save it on your computer
Hello,

You can easy change rom, download official global rom and update via 3 dots in updater, if there is no choose option just click miui 10 in updater 5-10 times

When i try that it comes up with "ROM's network carrier type is different from that in the recovery package" It looks like i need to unlock the bootloader then install through recovery? I have seen some people saying google pay doesnt work if your phone is unlocked?

Ok, I believe you have global version (not chinese global rom) right? You can try flash global rom via fastboot (mi flash tool), I believe it will flash without unlocking bootloader, if not unlock bootloader, and flash global rom with lock (mi foash tool) so gpay will work because bootloader will be locked again, BUT IF YOU HAVE CHINESE DEVICE WITH GLOBAL ROM THAN DON'T! LOCK BOOTLOADER AGAIN, OR IT WILL BE BRICKED.
---------- Post added at 04:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:52 PM ----------
P.s. if bootloader is locked with global rom it means it's not chinese device so you are safe
I've the same problem like you Can you be more specific? Please. Thank you
How can change the Russian rom 10.1.3.0 in stable rom with OTA? I want to receive, by OTA, Android 10 and MIUI 11.

Flash OFFICIAL Xiaomi fastboot rom via Miflash (take care, don't relock the bootloader!!!!) and reinstall TWRP 1102 or 1227 if you take the latest DEV version and not the STABLE.
TWRP 1102 or 1217 for Stable rom
twrp 1227 for latest DEV weekly rom 9.2.15

You are on OFFICIAL XIAOMI rom, that's was needed to refresh your phone.
This rom is full chinese without ANY GOOGLE application.
two options:
you stay with it and install GOOGLE PLAY on it or FLASH a custom modified EU rom with all the western stuff like Google and translations.
You need a modified recovery (TWRP) to flash a custom rom.
Your decision!
Do you know if it exist an ROM europeen (french) on miui10 ? With the Google service or possibility to install the gapps

Read well the first and second post and you'll be on the right track.

That's only what is well done with french language and under MIUI 10 Android 9.0
Thanks, but doesn't exist on fastboot version ? Because I have try to unlock my bootloader and I need to wait 360 hours but i doesn't this time, do you have a link like the first you have send to me but for an fastboot version and europeen, whatever the miui version. Thanks

No way and no possibility to flash custom rom out of TWRP usage.
That's the problem you are facing to wait in order to unlock the bootloader.
You must do it or stay with chinese ROM. This was like that when you bought this 100% chinese phone. And for me the same, so I waited 360 H and unlocked the bootloader for having TWRP available...
You have time to learn on how to do it.

As said before, this is a Chinese phone not sold "normally" out of CHINA.
It comes with CHINESE STABLE rom and no GLOBAL rom version ('for international sale with GOOGLE applications and all languages) is available and never will be!..
Sorry.
Anyway this phone is the best size/weight/features/price/performance/design RATIO in all XIAOMI phone range.
Tha's why I bought it to replace my MI5.
Thanks, so do you thinks I can found an traduction to all my mobile ? Before to install the chinese i having the miui global 9.5 stable 9.5.10.0 oebcnfa, it was the original ROM installed on my mobile when I have but my phone, I would like to refind here...

How to get back to stock rom like when i bought it

Hello all !
I've bought a MI9T pro on Rakuten 2 weeks ago, i unlocked the bootloader successfully, then i installed some mods like V4A etc, then i installed the 72hz mod that bricked my phone, after 2 hours, i
I managed to flash a older stock rom that i found on the web, but after this it was writed "Redmi" and not "Mi" on the bootup screen like it was before, then i installed LineageOS but i saw that there was many translation issues with french language so i installed MiUi 11 with TWRP but now the FP Sensor doesn't work.
My question is, is it possible to return to the latest version on MiUi that is available on MI9T Pro so i can do all the updates on the phone directly like when i bought it ? Can you tell me when i can find the rom ? And how can i get back "Mi" rather than "Redmi" on the bootup screen ?
I still want to get root, and bootloader unlocked, i just want to get an official stock rom like before.
Thanks guys for helping me, and excuse-me for my bad english, i from france
you need to download the correct fastboot ROM for your device and flash it with MiFlash. You will have either the Global or the EEA variant.
EEA ROM: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.3.4.0....KEUXM_20190923.0000.00_9.0_eea_65ad59b1cb.tgz
Global ROM: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.3.2.0....XM_20190911.0000.00_9.0_global_a11e2330ec.tgz
MiFlash: https://www.xiaomiflash.com/downloads/MiFlash20170425.zip
Do you know how can i know if i need to flash the global or the eea version?
After this, i will je able to do the miui updates normally like before? And it will be back a mi9t pro and not a k20 pro like now ? Because i had to flash something from india to flash the lineageOS.
Sorry for those questions, thanks again!
created new thread, since its different problem

Follow this guide. If you read it on a mobile browser, you will need to view it in desktop mode.
It has links for the Mi Flash Tool and the fastboot ROMs on the page.

Should i flash official miui to completly reset my phone ?

Hi guys,
i flashed tons of roms since i got my phone. Now i want to revert back to miui 10 android 9 ~v10.3.17 - xiaomi.eu, as miui 10 always was best with battery life for me.
Should i first flash the official stock rom from c.mi.com with fastboot mi flash tool to get rid of all my mess i have done in those years or can i just flash xiaomi.eu via twrp ?
I have the chinese version redmi k20 pro 8gb 128gb raphael.
Thanks.

Flashing Xiaomi.eu will only replace the system. It's probably better that you first re-flash the complete stock, also MIUI 10/A 9, to have the clean situation like in the old days
@zgfg thank you very much for your answer.
May you can tell me if i should prepare anything to get the bootloader unlocked again easily or is it the same procedure like requesting the file from mi.com ?
And maybe you can tell me if i can flash eea or global rom aswell as i live in Italy/europe or china is required ?

I suppose your BL is unlocked since you were flashing.
You can check in Fastboot:
fastboot oem device-info
Regarding how to flash the fastboot firmwares, see (I didn't use myself):
How to Flash Xiaomi Firmware using MIUI Fastboot and Recovery ROM
Ever since the dawn of affordable smartphones in countries like India and China, the demand for more has increased. The consumers now, more than ever, are
www.getdroidtips.com
Long ago, when I switched from stock to Xiaomi.eu, I switched from EEA (but AFAIK, Xiaomi.eu guides nowhere require to be coming specifically from EEA, Global, China, Russia)
Yeah im unlocked, but if i recognize it correctly flashing stock will lock bootloader again.
Need to do further research tomorrow than if i can prevent that somehow .
Thanks.

Take a look to the screenshot from Mi Flash in the guide, there is the option Clean all vs Clean all and lock
That is a common issue, people leave on default: Clean all and lock and if anything goes wrong while flashing (wrong firmware or something) they hard brick their phones and since they locked them, they cannot flash again (and must ask for the paid EDL support)

Thank you so much for pointing that out, i surely have missed that.
If i can keep it unlocked may i stay at stock and will do a lot of debloating and optimization as i wont update it .
