I got the A2 on T-Mobile USA today. It did one update for a security patch but that was it. The phone is still on Android 8.1. I thought this phone was updated to Android 9 or was that only for the Asian or European market?
I'm a technician , you have to manually flash it via pc. Looks like xiaomi removed the ota upgrade from oreo to pie . This week I had to upgrade manually three mi a2 lite and one mi a2 for some customers . I don't even know if when android 10 ota will be available the upgrade from oreo to Q would be possible

Hello guys, who have opted in for Android Pie beta update on Mi A2, could you please share what is changed on the phone and any issues you faced while using the device with the beta update here?
[
Hello guys, I commented that installing MIUI 10 in me Xiaomi my A2, I had the drawback of upgrading from MIUI 9 via OTA and I can not go back to Android one, according to and read in and asked in XDA, the forum MIUI and Telegram, there is no way to do it by the system Anti-rollback of MIUI and the fact that the A2 has the bootloader with a/B partitions and in MIUI occupies only one
Still no method to return to Android one?, I have ARB 4 and I'm in Miui 10. I am aware that there is a method to bypass and skip the anti-roll back system. Also that there was a tutorial in the MIUI forum to convert the 6x to A2 (from Miui 9, without ARB).
With those 2 elements you may be able to return to Android one or not yet possible and why not?
From now on, thanks for the support. I]
Any idea? Or method still working?
I have miui 10 beta 8.12.20 and really want to back to Android One!
i have good idea , you can brick your phone by downgrade MIUI 10 to MIUI 9 and Go to Mi Center and they will change your main board Congratz!!
you are now Android One again

I'm on the latest pie with December patch and everything is stock (locked bootloader and no root) so i wanna go back to stock oreo with keeping everything stock (without unlocking bl). I'm not a noobie i used to have galaxy s6 and have a huge experience about flashing stuff but it's totally different here with the mi a2, so I'd be pleased if anyone helped me

Hi elprince.
There is a workaround on this forum saying it is possible if you unlock bootloader and critical using MiFlash. Here:
How to revert back from stable pie to oreo?
However, Xiaomi blocked downgrade capabilities from Mi A1, A2 and A2 Lite on Pie Update and doing this could even brick your phone:
Xiaomi disables downgrading from Pie to Oreo on Android One devices, Here’s why
Warning: Going back to Oreo after upgrading Xiaomi Mi A1, Mi A2, or Mi A2 Lite to Pie may brick device
If you are an experienced guy/girl, take your time to read those links and downgrade if you think it is worth it...

They are wrong here, none of that is true and you'll always be able to roll back using mi flash

I'm using Redmi K20 Pro (Raphaelin) with locked bootloader. Recently I've got miui12 update but for some reason I didn't update it and now I want to update to miui 12 from miui 11.0.6 but the there is no update showing on system update. What's wrong?
It's an opportunity missed!
Just kidding. Probably blocked by new India's chinese website blacklisting. Try vpn or manually downloading the rom and flash using updater.

Tried vpn but no luck. Have to download miui 12 manually. Can someone provide correct OTA download link of miui 12 Raphaelin?
Bro wait till 13th july its the end date of rollout for k20pro in india...if still u dont receive the update then update it manually ..i too facing the same issue
I'm using Redmi note 7pro.Today I got a notification of miui 12 update. But I couldn't complete the update due to the unavailability of internet. When I got data, the update have have gone. What to do now??
Update disappeared
Same problem, Mi Note 10 lite global, any solution??
You just wait till it come again, xiaomi update with batches
I have been waiting for the miui 12.5 update for my xiaomi mi 9 lite (EU) since July 2021 anyway. only the gobal and russian version have already come out and i'm still waiting now and since miui13 on android 11 has already been announced for mi 9 lite i have a feeling the 12.5 isn't coming. Is there anyone here who can tell me if the update is coming or if I can switch to the global version without losing all my data?
I have a European sim card and it should still work! I've heard stories about xiaomi phones with EU SIM card that all work with English as language
The bootloader is unlocked.
Unfortunately EEA roms are always hit or miss when it comes to updates due to EU regulations. I wouldn't hold my breath for any updates past the last one we got way back in early 2021 (MIUI 12).
I highly doubt this device will receive MIUI 13 as it has already reached EOL (and was never really a popular model, sadly). You should be able to flash the Global version of MIUI 12.5 or a custom rom like Xiaomi.EU though; there are guides on the forum that you can follow.
I can switch tot gobal but works my simcard ? And is it a update? Or is my data gone?

Your SIM should work without any problems, however you will need to wipe your device clean to switch roms.
