Help me flash LOS17 - Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe

Hey,
So I am new to this and I want to make sure I don't break anything.
I have the Mi 9T Pro with MIUI Global 10.3.3.0 (PFKMIXM). I am not sure if its the Global or the EEA Version (?) How can I see?
I did not yet get an option to update to MIUI11 unlike many others either. I did unlock my bootloader.
What steps in which order do I have to take to get LOS17? I also want to have root and TWRP.
Can someone guide me through this step by step? Would really appreciate.
The "instructions" in the LOS17 thread are pretty minimal and not very detailed.

The ROM is global, so I assume the phone is too. In PFKMIXM look at characters 4 & 5. MI = global. For EEA these would be EU (CN = China, IN = India).
I don't think MIUI 11 has been released for the global ROM. AFAIK this week was only the European ROM that got updated to 11.
To install LOS you would need to install MIUI 11 firmware & vendor first (these can be flashed on there own or you could install a fastboot MIUI 11 ROM)
The LOS 17 OP recommends keeping these as the original region of the phone. In this case you will need to wait until global MIUI 11 arrives.
However, you would, in all probability, have no issues if you went with European MIUI 11 ROM/firmware instead.
The decision is yours, if you want to keep things 'proper' then wait for global MIUI 11 before proceeding. If you're happy to go with EU firmware then we can give you an overview of the process.

Thanks for the reply, very helpful.
Is there any information when MIUI 11 will be released for the global version?
Also can I already install TWRP? That should not have any effect on the ROM flashing process, right?
If so, how do I do this correctly for my current configuration?

I've not heard anything about the global release, but as someone that doesn't use MIUI I don't go looking for information, so there could be some info around. Apparently there's no noticeable difference between EU and global versions for this phone, so now the EU version is released I don't think it would be too long for the global version to appear, but that's pure guesswork.
You can install TWRP now, it requires adb and fastboot. If you don't have these on your PC then search the xda forums for 'minimal adb'. The official post will give you all the details. Ordinarily whenever you boot MIUI ithe system checks the integrity of the recovery partition and, if it has changed, it will restore stock recovery. Therefore immediately after installing TWRP you'll need to install Magisk, which will then automatically protect the TWRP installation.
Copy your Magisk installation file onto the phone
Boot the phone into fastboot mode and connect to the PC.
To make life easier, copy the TWRP image file to the same folder that has adb and fastboot and rename the file as TWRP.img
Open command prompt and navigate to the adb/fastboot installation folder.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
If you're using PowerShell then you'll need to qualify the location of fastboot and TWRP
Code:
.\fastboot flash recovery .\TWRP.img
When that's finished and still in fastboot mode.
Press and hold the vol+ and power buttons.
Keep holding both until the phone vibrates and the initial splash screen appears.
Release the power button, but keep holding vol+ for a second or 2.
You should now have booted into TWRP if everything went OK.
Go to install and select the Magisk installation file on the phone.
Confirm the selection.
Once that's finished you can reboot the phone.
If all's OK you should now have TWRP and Magisk installed.

Alright. Thanks for the instructions, I will try this.
Just to make sure: Is this the correct TWRP image: TWRP 3.3.1-22 Unofficial by mauronofrio ?
Where can I find the correct magisk files for my device? Do I need magisk or magisk manager?
Would be sick if you could link me the correct ones
Cheers

EDIT: JUST READ THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH MAGISK 20.1 AND MIUI 11.
DOWNLOAD MAGISK 19.4
That is the correct TWRP.
Only ever get Magisk from here
https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk
There are no device specific versions, just one size fits all. Download the latest 20.1 Magisk installer zip to flash in TWRP. It will install Magisk and Magisk manager at the same time. Also download the uninstaller zip at the same time, just in case. If, for any reason, you need to uninstall then it's there ready.
If you need to know more about Magisk, follow the link on github to the xda official thread, it has very good information.

Chinese Mi8 to Global Instructions

So you bought a shiny new Chinese model, and want to convert to Global or EU version?
I had bought the Chinese version also, and couldn't find a solid method for converting to the Global or EU ROMs. I was worried i would brick my device like so many others! After finding bits and pieces in lots and lots of xda threads, MIUI forums, and finding some mis-information, i decided to put a working method all in one place!
**WARNING***
I am NOT responsible for anything that goes wrong or you have issues with the information i have provided, it worked for me and proceed at your own risk!
FIRST
Unlock your bootloader locked Chinese version phone! (It's a LONG wait)
see official unlock page here-->http://en.miui.com/thread-246705-1-1.html
After Bootloader Unlock
1.) Download TWRP from the page here-->https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-8/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-3-0-mi-8-t3837745
-- RENAME YOUR DOWNLOADED RECOVERY FILE TO "recovery.img"
2.) Download the DM Verity Disabler here-->https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=3700668719832238534
3.) Download the Region Fix here-->https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=1322778262904000068
4.) Download a Global ROM / EU ROM of your choice!
Installing the TWRP Recovery:
Make sure you have a working copy of FASTBOOT on your computer compatible with Mi8 (I used the one in the directory from the Bootloader UNLOCK program)
1.) Copy all of your downloaded files to the Bootloader Unlocker main directory (or a directory with the Fastboot.exe file)
2.) Open a DOS shell prompt on your computer and change the directory to the Bootloader Unlock directory (or Fastboot.exe directory)
3.) Put your phone in to Fastboot Mode (Turn on phone and hold the Volume Down while also holding Power Button)
4.) Connect your phone via USB cable to your computer
5.) In your DOS shell prompt enter this between the quotes "fastboot.exe boot recovery.img"
6.) After your phone boots up with the TWRP, copy the recovery.img file to the main directory of your SDCard
(Your recovery should allow you to open your phones internal storage on your computer)
7.) Install from the TWRP recovery menu (choose IMG file on bottom right, and select the recovery.img from your storage, and choose the Recovery partition to flash to)
8.) After successful TWRP flashing to your recovery partition, Reboot to RECOVERY
Preparing & Flashing Your Downloaded ROM:
1.) Format your data (must be done from the wipe directory where you have to type the word "yes")
2.) after the format, once again reboot to your RECOVERY
3.) Copy your chosen ROM zip file, recovery.img file, Region Fix file, and DM Verity disabler file to your internal phone storage
4.) Install your chosen ROM (flash through TWRP)
5.) Flash your recovery.img file again! (choose IMG file on bottom right of screen, and select the recovery.img from your storage, and choose the Recovery partition to flash to)
6.) Flash the Region Fix file
** Optional of flashing Magisk (v17.1) now if you want **
7.) Flash the DM Verity disabler file
8.) Format DATA again (this removes all of your file from internal storage, so copy them back if you want after the format is done)
9.) Reboot to SYSTEM and Enjoy!
Some steps may be redundant or not needed, however -i spent countless hours in bootloops, reflashes, testing. This method works, and is what i follow every new ROM i install. I am now on the latest Miui10.8.9.6 Global.
Additional Notes:
DON'T downgrade versions of ROMs (ex, miui10 to 9, or miui9 to 8) Anti-Rollback isn't enabled to brick yet (it's only "1")
If you don't flash the Region fix on a Chinese phone, it will constantly reboot, during initial rom setup or won't even make it that far (wish i knew this before, it would have saved me many hours in bootloops)
If you want to STAY on Chinese rom versions with the bootloader locked, you CAN flash miui Chinese developer edition (ex miui10.8.30) using the internal software updater without issues (i did this while waiting for unlocking delay).

Great job ! A good idea for us
Thanks a lot.
I finally could install miui.eu.
Unfortunately i flash magisk but it doesn't root my phone.
Two questions:
First do i just have to flash magisk and dm verity after?
Then for flash another rom do i have to do all the steps again?

Yes, you have to flash dm verity after magisk. After you are booted, if magisk is installed did you try to update magisk from the app? It worked on global ROM for me.
I would forward all steps again, but up to you. If you report back a shorter method that works j can modify instructions.
I am also working on a fix for the Chinese region that keeps coming back with reboot. I know what needs done, and have fixed mine, i just need to modify the region fix zip.

Thanks for this as it really saves time reading bits of information. I took time to change the ROM as I didn't want to brick my phone. Some knowledgeable people on here will even be annoyed if you ask for clarifications and tell you to read! I basically followed most of the steps mentioned.
Hi,
Can I relock bootloader after change from chinese to global version?

Unfortunately, Xiaomi made a stupid rule, which is that you can't lock global roms with chinese phones. Starting with Mi 8.
Is this goin to work for phones already unlocked by seller account? Is it possible to use my account after this procedure?
@HugoYe
I thought it is solution for lock after flash CN -> Global.
@johnny1836
What do you exactly mean by fixing the problem. I'm still trying to find a solution for this. Keeping the BL open is really bothering me, as I am using the Official Global rom.

I just used the official Chinese ROM link, back then it was miui10 8.8.30 and let the updater in the phone do it.
here is the official CHINESE DEVELOPER BETA of Miui10 8.8.31-->http://bigota.d.miui.com/8.8.31/miui_MI8_8.8.31_b99e4f5263_8.1.zip

Yes. I patched my boot.img with magisk, then flashed it using "fastboot flash boot_ab magisk_patched(boot.img file name).omg"
Caveat: I bricked my device like many others after unlocking the bootloader and flashing xiaomi.eu ROM. I had to have a authorized EDL account holder flash a factory ROM (in my case I had a China variant flashed with the Global ROM), after which I flashed xiaomi.eu latest stable ROM and then rooted it.
does google pay still work after root?

I flashed it separately on the second attempt for 12.5.3. The first time I tried flashing the patched boot.img I was greeted with an error.
Hi! I have the latest xiaomi eu weekly installed (21.6.23) as well as unofficial twrp.
I would like to root the phone with magisk, but I don't understand a few things.
Magisk manager require patching the boot.img file from the zip firmware.
I can not just simply install magisk zip file in twrp to root mi11 ultra?
If not, I understand that I have to patch the boot.img- but do I have to do it every time I want to install update of the latest xiaomi.eu firmware?
The second question is about data.
Am I loosing the data by rooting the device by this method?
EDIT:
Ok, I managed. So those are the steps that I did:
I unpacked the boot.img from the xiaomi.eu firmware in my phone. Then I patched the file, and copy this file to the adb installation folder of my pc.
Later it's easy- usb debugging needs to be active in developer options, then connect your phone by the cable to your pc, accept usb debugging in your phone, start CMD in the adb folder in your pc and write the command:
fastboot flash boot_ab nameofthefilewhatmagiskgenerated.img
then
fastboot reboot
And done, root works. Data are untouched.
I did it easier, boot into twrp and flash magisk.zip done
Also I'm on official EEA firmware, with original stock recovery, so doesn't matter what rom you use. On xiaomi EU you don't even need adb because you already have twrp injected
Is there anything to worry about when you update the phone while having root access?
Is the following order right?
1) update Rom over twrp and delete dalvik&cache
2)flash magisk.zip again
3)boot into system
Right ?
I have the latest EU Rom 12.5.7...
Just take this bat with decrypted Star twrp 3.5.1
unzip and klick Install-Star.bat
fastboot boot star.img are the commands in there

Question [Solved] Mobile won't boot anymore ! :/

Hi guys, i just flashed (with a light wipe) the last rom for my Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra (obtained on the update section of parameters) and i first lost all my config.
So, i decided to restore the backup i made just before flashing and here is the drama, it boot directly into TWRP and i can't seem to find my storage anymore (tried file manager)
TWRP also tells me that no OS is installed, please help, i'm desperate
I think the first step is to recover access to internal sdcard, and maybe then i can restore a backup
Thank you !
simply, Fastboot and install official rom using mi flash tool.
thats one of the penalties you'd pay of installing eu rom.

Thank you very much, sir !
Will try this and post the result, maybe with a little tuto if it's not already everywhere ^^
So, tried 5 times and not once a good result, the better i can obtain is 12.5.7.0 global working, flashed with xiaomitool. TWRP ok, and i will try Magisk next.
Every other tries solded by an sdcard/os/data loss T_T
That's a mystery. I ran on 12.5.17.0 all fine before this incident and i cannot get it work anymore :/
I obtained rom from https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=321331
TWRP from https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=14943124697586336381
Also tried this method again (this was my first method and it worked like a charm till this 12.5.20.0... )

The problem with global is it seems to be greatly outdated (patch from 2021.09, that's a huge security risk to be months backward nowadays, let aside bug correction, new functionnality, etc)
I can't seem to find a more recent global version (updater within settings tells me there's no more up to date version).
Do someone have an idea, please ? :/
What i'm doing :
1. put device on fastboot mode
2. launch xiaomitool and flash 12.5.7.0 global rom
3. reboot into fastboot
4. launch xiaomi unlock and unlock device
5. boot TWRP with fastboot boot twrp.img in cmd (command returned all ok)
6. into "soft" TWRP, One Key Inject TWRP
7. into "hard" TWRP > install and give it the .zip rom file
8. after the rom installed, all broken again :/
Hi,
there is no TWRP-ROM available for the Ultra - it's still in fastboot-ROM phase.
Flash via fastboot. Unlocking is just needed once until relocking with orig. ROM.
(Optionally) Copy boot.img from ROM-folder to phone.
Use Magisk to patch boot.img
Flash patched boot.img to boot_a and boot_b via fastboot.
Wait until TWRP-compatible-zip's for the Ultra to begin to appear.

Thanks for that ! ^^
That sure seem a simple task
You're telling me that i can, from my 12.5.7.0 global, patch the boot.img (90mb) from the 12.5.20.0 eu with magisk, flash this with fastboot and that it will work ?
Seems too wonderfull to be true XD
EDIT:
My bad, you said "optionnally", not "alternatively"
So, i'm stuck here, i don't know and can't seem to find the fastboot cmd to install the xiaomi eu rom in .zip format
Do you know it please ?
In all the 11 Ultra A12 weekly EU ROMs, the format is fastboot only. Just extract the .zip file to a folder on your desktop, connect your phone in fastboot mode, power on and vol down and then click on the update bat file. If your coming from a different branch, click on the update and format bat file ( the bat files will be in the upper most extracted folder). It is a simple as that .

How To Guide Install TWRP for Xiaomi 11T Pro

Perform this at your own risk. You might LOSE all data on your phone.
( I'm not responsible for any damage to your device )
//
Update: OrangeFox Recovery Project for Xiaomi 11T Pro (vili) with the same installation instructions.
Caution: this recovery is intended for use with MIUI vendors ONLY, even having the flashing capability of MiLahaina based system, do not try to boot it on MiLahaina ROMs, as the builds aren't compatible.
Bugs as for now:
- Vibrator
- MTP (adb works fine)

Not 100% sure but it's probably because your device is encrypted which is the default behavior of miui when you setup your lockscreen method.

Not yet, we still don't have recovery rom yet, the current eu rom is for fastboot.

How can I remove it? When I put my password it decrypt tho, should I keep it like that (keep putting password whenever I open twrp) or remove it? Which is better?

It is better to enter the password every time as this will enhance your security in case you lose your phone they won't find the password is decrypted therefore they can't access your data.
But still there is another way they might access your data and that if your bootloader is unlocked usually the best way to protect yourself is to leave the password in twrp and lock your bootloader.

What issues? Could you be more specific? I have both and I don't have any issues...
i have Tried as below:
Option1: Tried to boot Twrp after that go to Advanced > Flash Current TWRP > Done Magisk was missing so flashed Magisk from Twrp.
Not booting on system
Option2: Flashed TWRP on SLOT A & SLOT B and now messed up
This unofficial version of TWRP + Magisk root seems to cause network problems for me as the mobile connection dropped from 4G(LTE) to 2G(EDGE).
Using Magisk root without TWRP works like a charm.
Anyone else facing this issue?
I flashed the latest magisk on this TWRP and no problem facing.

It won't as it might brick your phone so make sure you install this in 11T Pro (vili) not 11T (agate)
Good morning, I use it with the 11t Pro, and no problem! great everything.
But now they updated to Android 12 and Miui 13, and it doesn't work anymore...
The developer will update the recovery to work on android 12??
First of all, thank you very much for the hard work you do.

i got help from the discord server and here's what i did:
> launched TWRP > Advanced > ADB Sideload
> installed the newest platform-tools on my PC
> then flashed a recovery rom with version 12.5.10
>> NOTE: if it crashed at 47% - 49% that's fine, it's an ADB bug so 47 - 49 means 100%
> rebooted to system
after all that my devices was working again.

Only the stock global rom is for recovery, xiaomi.eu rom is for fastboot.
I can boot the twrp.img, but I can't navigate in the main menu. It won't do anything

Probably twrp is not yet compatible with the new android 12 firmware, some users also reported the same problem.

Thanks for the quick reply
I'm updated whiteout format data. Everything looks ok.
Alright, so I was previously rooted on 12.5 (global), non twrp. its not necessary for rooting.
I did the ota update to v13 miui (global). but as its a switch between v11 and v12 of android its not possible to install magisk into an empty a/b slot.
I tried to fastboot flash your global miui boot.img after patching it with magisk and it did not work.
I suspect the boot.img to not be compatible with the global rom.
So I opted to flash the Eu fastboot version of miui 13, I set up the phone.
Then patched the stock boot.img with magisk and fastboot that. Done phone is now rooted on v13 miui. and passing safety net check.
phone data was lost as i had to switch from global to eu.
Can anyone confirm that we get widgets and other features that are not found in the miui 13 global I want to make the switch but I want to know what would still be missing
The global fastboot rom is now released. follow same steps above to have rooted global non twrp.
V13.0.1.0.SKDMIXM (https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/vili/stable/V13.0.1.0.SKDMIXM/)
-Edit-
Ive also updated to the latest via ota V13.0.2.0.SKDMIXM (Stable beta). but as it detected the boot.img was modified it downloaded the entire recovery rom. Installed. Lost root access.
I then fastboot re flashed the patched boot.img from the V13.0.1.0.SKDMIXM and it works.
so im rooted/ safetynet check passed on V13.0.2.0.SKDMIXM (Global)
roms can be found here https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/vili/
Downloaded the latest EEU vili_eea_global_images_V13.0.8.0.SKDEUXM_20220224.0000.00_12.0_eea_38cc4dcea7.tgz
but the only .bat files I see are
flash_all.bat, flash_all_except_storage.bat and flash_all_lock.bat

This thread is about XIAOMI EU custom rom
This phone is so ****ty, I'm trying to do OTA update via 100mbit/'s network in netherlands from about two f***NG weeks and it can not be finished. I can't belive that I have paid 800€ for so big ****!
Hello
For the ROOT it works perfectly (without TWRP, just with magisk)
You unlock the bootloader and wait 1 week, you extract the boot.img, you modify the file with magisk and do the command wtih adb with the modified boot
Very simple
(If you want to extract the rom file by yourself you can just extract with a little tool after your download the rom
, you can extract the fil with the payloaf file, for that, just have a look in the method 3 in this link)
