No NFC on global ROM ? - Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe

I have the K20 pro, MIUI global 11.0.3 stable (11.0.3 QFKINXM) and for some reason there is no NFC option on my phone.
Is there any other official ROM that I can install that have call recorder and NFC?
It's super important for me to have the call recorder built in as I have at the moment.
Tnx for the help

I'm surprised you have the call recording feature--I've never had that available on the official Global ROM of any Xiaomi phone--although it's possible that feature is available or not based on the region you choose at set up.
You don't have an NFC option under connections and sharing?
It's there on the Global ROM on my phone.

Once again 'global' ROM causes confusion.
Depending on how you look at it, there is either 1 global ROM or 4 global ROMs.
For any ROM that is not Chinese, you will notice that it is referred to as global MIUI in the about phone settings page.
However there are 4 different ROMs that are labelled this way.
Indian
European
Russian
Global
The Indian phone does not have NFC hardware, therefore NFC is disabled in the Indian ROM. You have an Indian ROM installed on your phone.
The European, Russian and Global ROMs all come with the Google dialer app, which does not allow call recording.
If you want non-Chinese MIUI, with working NFC and the MIUI dialer app that allows call recording, then I believe your only option is the xiaomi.eu ROM.

Prior to the Android 10 update on the MI 9T Pro the Global ROMs on every Xiaomi phone I have ever owned had the Xiaomi Dialer and Messaging apps--Xiaomi put out a press release less than two weeks ago confirming the switch to the Google Dialer and Messaging apps on the Global ROMs.
I'm not sure why the OP would be running an official Xiaomi ROM that doesn't correspond to the hardware on his phone.

We're not talking about previous phones, we're talking about the Mi 9T Pro, which has the Google dialer and messaging apps, and has had them since its release.
Only the K20 Pro (both regions) came with the Xiaomi dialer and messaging apps.
All we know is that the OP has a K20 Pro. They may have the Indian version, in which case they have the correct MIUI ROM. Otherwise, they obviously don't want to live with the Chinese MIUI ROM.

Head to www.xiaomi.eu site and from the menu bar on left. You have two options. 1.Stable roms are not updated very frequently and are with lesser to zero bugs. 2. Weekly developer roms if you want to experience new features early but may have bugs.
Before flashing a .eu rom you will have to unlock your bootloader and flash a custom recovery. You will find all the related info and procedures in XDA development threads.

@fernoct much appreciated your help and the answer

I have a K20 Pro Premium Edition. Currently, there is only the China ROM available for the Premium Edition.
I was able to flash the K20 Pro Global ROM on it, then I discovered it doesn't have call recording (which I need). So then I flashed the K20 Pro Indian ROM on it and it has call recording, but missing Dual GPS and NFC. The mobile signal strength seems to be weaker as well, compared to when I was on the K20 Pro Premium Edition China ROM.
I know there are recording apps out there, but I prefer to run the native call recording if possible. The main problem for me is the signal strength on the Indian ROM. It sucks and I'm wondering if flashing a different region firmware will fix this? Can someone confirm?

Understanding the many ROM variations

So I have bought a Mi 9T Pro Global ROM version and I am a bit lost on the whole official ROM versions
My current understanding of the ROMs:
Chinese version - Stock from Xiaomi, has an English mode but also has ads
Global version - ???
EU version - Custom ROM but aims to be as close to stock but without bloat and for EU userbase
EEA version - ???
Russian version - ???
India version - ???
Could anyone help me understand just what all this means and what I should ideally aim to stick with as someone living in the UK and wanting the best experience possible (No ads)

All the same structure same base miui thing just little differences
as i know china come with call recorder w/o NFC
Eu come without call recorder but with NFC
Rest i didnt test yet but i guess with some with some without
xiaomi.eu roms work in Europe and the US, as a replacement for global roms with more features (See some here https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/9-11-14.53327/)
xiaomi.eu roms also come with TWRP pre-installed and OTA updates
Chinese ROMs come with features like call recording that may not be entirely legal in other countries, as well as ads, tracking, and a few other things
Chinese and Indian ROMs typically come on the k20 pro, which lacks the bands that the mi 9t pro has (notably bands 4 for US and 20 for EU)
EEA Rom is the stock rom for Europe, while EU rom is the xiaomi.eu modified ROM for Europe (and Global)
Global ROM is the stock for international, but xiaomi.eu ROMs work perfectly on Global as well (See https://www.reddit.com/r/Xiaomi/comments/bt6z7b/miui_global_rom_vs_eea_rom/)
Russian runs Global but with modifications for GPS, Privacy, and Language
Living in the UK, I'd suggest using a stable Xiaomi.eu rom with Magisk, which will give you root, no bloatware and ads, optimised GPS and battery, and OTA stable updates. I'm rather new as well so check this out for info on it, it could help! (https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/help/twrp-procedure-check-t4004531)
While all of the roms run MIUI, their stability, update frequency, bloatware, bands, and language can differ slightly.

Thanks for the knowledge! Been interesting learning about them all. What I will most likely do once my device arrives is to wait for the bootloader unlock and test the EEA and if I dislike it, jump to xiaomi.eu
roughavoc said:
Thanks...xiaomi.eu
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Good plan! Personally reason why I'm jumping straight to xiaomi.eu:
I don't think I'll DISLIKE Global, necessarily
But xiaomi.eu comes with TWRP preinstalled and root, and maintains Magisk even through OTA updates (Global/EEA removes TWRP and Magisk each time you update)
Just figured I'd share
If it's not Chinese MIUI, then Xiaomi label it as Global MIUI, as they all come with a full set of global language options.
Each version is then slightly modified for the region it is intended for. For EEA and Russia, I believe the modifications are more around complying with regulations, such as data protection, etc., rather than functional changes. For India, for this phone at least, the have replaced the stock launcher with the Poco Launcher, which has an app drawer (not sure if this is still true with MIUI 11), I guess this was in response to the popularity of the Poco F1 in India and the fact that this phone could be considered its successor there.
Xiaomi.eu are a collection of independent, volunteer developers, who make custom versions of MIUI. They've been around almost as long as Xiaomi themselves, from the days when MIUI was itself only a custom ROM, which only came in a Chinese version. The original aim was to add additional language translations. Now they add a full set of global languages, remove all ads, bloatware and non-essential apps, and add their own tweaks and customisations.
When it comes to EU, things get confusing. When it comes to naming MIUI versions, Xiaomi use 2 letter codes to distinguish the regions and use EU for Europe. Therefore you'll see people interchangeably use EU and EEA when talking about official European MIUI, this unfortunately leads to confusion as to whether people are referring to official MIUI or the unofficial xiaomi.eu ROMs

How to change background during call?

After upgrading my Xiaomi K20 Pro to MIUI 12, the background screen during calls is completely black. I would greatly appreciate if someone can give me a piece of advice on how to change that setting without using any third-party applications from Google PlayStore.
I've included an example in attachment.
Thank you
Any news regarding this, guys?

No such thing as "profile video for incoming calls" in sounds and vibration. Kindly check the attachments.
I must mention again, when I was using MIUI 11 everything was ok, after upgrading to MIUI 12 (12.0.2.0), the background screen druing calls is completely black.

I appreciate the effort, but the link you've recommended is for MIUI 11, while my K20 Pro is currently on MIUI 12 (12.0.2.0), so there is no "Profile Videos for Incoming Calls" option within Sound & Vibration submenu.

Are you on the Indian version of MIUI 12? I was on the Indian version of MIUI 12 when I bought my k20 pro couple of weeks ago. and I flashed EU rom and I now have access to the profile video setting. When I was on stock (Indian) version, I wasn't specifically looking for this setting but I am pretty sure it wasn't there so it might be the case cuz you are referencing that you are on 12.0.2.0 and I guess that is the latest version available in India (you can confirm if you look at the version for you it should say something like 12.0.2.0 QFKINXM, IN in the middle suggesting it being the Indian version, even though it might also say global too as mine it). Also, I could be wrong in assuming you are on the Indian version or something. I just looked at your version number and this thing kept popping up in my mind.

So you see it says its global version but its not. I don't know why it is so. You are on the Indian version of the rom (the IN in the build number indicates this, I have attached a screenshot of my phone which was on Indian version but is on EU version now (and as I have flashed the EU version of the rom, my device name has been changed to 9T pro (which is the k20 pro sold globally, no difference except it has NFC and different ROMs flashed)), and it says CN instead of IN because as EU version is based on the china version of MIUI 12, it says CN, there also an another Europe version I guess, I have seen it on some phones, that says EU instead, I think that is the global version I guess). My point being anyway is that the IN version doesn't have the feature you are looking for.

Of course, you can flash the EU version on your k20 pro. Don't need root to do that but you do require a custom recovery may it be twrp or orangefox which I am using or pitchblack (tbh all are twrp modified). Go on youtube you can find many tutorials on doing this. (search k20 pro miui EU install or something similar). Be warned though your warranty will be void, you will lose your data (take a backup) and your phone might get bricked. Also install the stable EU version which I think is the 12.0.3.0, Link for stable miui 12 EU 12.0.3.0 . The stable build is quite stable.

Question Can anyone share their experiences of Xiaomi.eu ROM vs Global ROM?

I own the Mi 11 with CN ROM and have been using it in North America. I'm thinking of flashing a different ROM to see if it will be a better experience. Has anyone in my situation flashed both the Global ROM and Xiaomi.eu ROM and can give an opinion on which is better overall? I'd be interested in things like speed, battery life, Play services compatability etc.
Thanks in advance!
It basically boils down to privacy vs latest updates.
Xiaomi will phone home as much as you let it, I think the EU rom is supposed to fix that but updates take a little longer.

Global is different to the Xiaomi EU one but many wrongly call the EU one global.
Xiaomi EU is based on the Chinese ROM.
Global is for outside China and has less features than Chinese and Xiaomi EU ROM.

I knew that the Global ROM (developed by Xiaomi) is meant for phones outside of China. I also understood that the Xiaomi.eu ROM is created by developers and is different (but based on) the Chinese stock ROM that shipped with the phone. I think you confused me by saying the "Chinese EU ROM" instead of "Xiaomi.eu" ROM which is what I usually see people say.
What I don't like about the Chinese stock ROM for Chinese users is that it doesn't seem to fully support all Google services and the implementation of Android 11 isn't complete (for example I don't see the Nearby Share feature).
What features does the Global ROM (created by Xiaomi for international users) lack that the Chinese ROM has? I think that as long as the Global ROM supports Google services fully I would be happy with it. If not then I guess I would flash the Xiaomi.eu ROM but it would be annoying to have to apply all updates manually.

Can't actually remember most of them but there was a few. A lot of the AI options like app pre loading etc
Xiaomi also confirmed the global Miui 12.5 update will be a "lite" version of the Chinese Miui so software will be more basic.
When I had the Mi 10 the EU version worked better than the global one with Google and notifications in general. Might of sorted that with next month's release.

Ok. Thanks for the info
I have CN ROM and had to tweak it like crazy to get rid of the China stuff and to get notifications to work. Turned off the battery saver for every app I needed notifications and enabled every option.
Now with EU ROM I didn't have to do anything like that, and have the google feed on the left. Everything is perfect with EU - well recommended.
Excuse me for jump in...I want to by Mi 11 Pro. I want Google Play, Google pay, banking aps, Netflix to work. Shell I stay on Chinese Rom or put Xiaomi.eu Rom? I am from Europe. Thanks!

I have already tried the latest stable MIUI14 from xiaomi.eu and it seemed quite alright
But I had one problem - which was rather annoying
I couldn't get my banking app to install properly. And I believe that is because the bootloader is unlocked. But my device was original CN, which I then flashed to xiaomi.eu (and locking the bootloader after that, is not recommended!)
So my question here is - if I install the Global ROM instead (which is xiaomi official, in contrary to the xiaomi.eu ROM), will I be able to lock the bootloader after flashing?

The EU ROM doesn't need to lock bootloader.
The EU ROM looks have a issue relate Google Backup.
Does anyone have the same issue?
New - Google Drive backup bug? Backup gone after reboot [updated]
[updated description below because it seems like backups dissappear after reboot] Not sure if this is from ROM or the Google Drive app. After a day or two my Google backup of my phone dissappears. Even though done successfully before and also shown in Google Drive, it dissappears after a day...
xiaomi.eu
One good reason to move to EU rom: it fixed stuff where China Rom doesn't!
For example, in China/Global ROM miui14.0.12 the AOD display will always turn itself off if it lay on a dark room for around 10 minutes. And turning off Bluetooth from android top down menu will turn off 24 hours only and not forever.
In Miui EU, this they fixed it by making it on always. Same goes to Bluetooth turning off when pressed from top drop down menu.
And many other translation jitter you can notice in China Rom if you were to restart your phone. For instance, calendar will show 1 second of Chinese before becoming english.

Question Mi 11 ultra - xiaomi.eu or global rom?

Hi, I have a 11 ultra Chinese version, after waiting 7 days to unlock and all of bugging twrp installation, I finished to put stable xiaomi.eu Rom on it. But somehow I find that eu rom now have a lot of small bugs.
Don't know that should keep it or go to global rom?
Xiaomi EU is overstimated, it may be good for west people who wants a debloated and translated china rom with Google services,but Global Rom is much better and also is faster

I didn't try myself the China ROM but I read it is more performing than the Xiaomi EU as well as Global and EEA stock ROMs
When I got my Mi 11 Ultra I started the process to unlock it right away since it uses the Chinese rom. However, by the time it was ready to be unlocked I decided it wasn't worth the hassle. The Chinese rom with the Google playstore installed does everything I need it to do. I don't really see any reason to change to the global or eu rom so far.

The Global Indian (IN) ROM is smaller in size as compared to the Global (IM) ROM and they are pretty much identical.
The IN ROM though has the Red Dot notification light displayed in the Rear Display when there is any notification.
T̶h̶i̶s̶ ̶o̶p̶t̶i̶o̶n̶ ̶i̶s̶ ̶n̶o̶t̶ ̶a̶v̶a̶i̶l̶a̶b̶l̶e̶ ̶i̶n̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶G̶l̶o̶b̶a̶l̶ ̶I̶M̶ ̶R̶O̶M̶
Edit:
So this option is available in the Global MI Rom but you may also have to enable another setting which might not be 'enabled' by default.
Notification Access > Rear Display > Allow Notification Access
A regular notification option is available but it is pretty limited. I think it is for Spotify integration (music control) and Answering the Phone.

Quite content with the Global MI ROM
By IN ROM you mean Indian? Because the standard Global is easily rootable
Chinese rom is the best one. 120Hz everywhere.
Latest patches latest updates but no Ok google and no android auto. (At least in old versions of software)
I didn’t like global rom because many apps including YouTube is not working at 120hz.
Obviously China ROM is more updated and more refined,

1. MiUi dialler & Contacts - Didn't like it. Prefer Google
2. MiUi power down screen - Didn't like it. Still prefer Global ROM screen.
3. Google Assistant didn't work from lockscreen. It has to be running in the background for it to work from lockscreen (fingerprint protected)
The CN ROM does have some extra neat animations (like Battery Charging animations) which I would look to have. But I can do without it.
In Global MI ROM, Google Assistant is a system app I guess. So it's in the background by default? It works well from lockscreen.
Red dot notification in rear display works on Global MI ROM but doesn't work on the CN ROM. The Xiaomi.eu's (CN) ROM.

I would love to test video. I don't quite know how to check the Hz. Honestly I haven't tested my phone yet.
How do you check how many Hz when watching YouTube?

IN as in Indian yes
IN ROM latest fastboot ROM is v12.0.2.0 and then OTA update to v12.5.2.0.
I didn't know if I would lose root so I thought Global MI ROM is better. Lot more fastboot ROM releases and perhaps some added features looking at the version number and size of the MI fastboot Rom.
I need a Chinese ROM without the Chinese programs only
Because I want to record the call without sound

Question Can I flash Redmi Note 11 running MIUI 13 Global RGCINXM with Indonesian RGKIDXM?

Hi all, I have recently purchased a Redmi Note 11 in India running MIUI 13 Global (RGCINXM). This ROM comes with a google dialer and I would like to revert to MI Dialer. I have flashed one of my older phones successfully with an Indonesian version to get back the MI dialer, however in that case, the ROM names were similar except for the country code (RGCxxXM for example).
I can't seem to find the exact same Indonesian ROM for my Redmi note 11 and wanted to check with the others if it would be safe to flash with the Indonesian NFC variant (RGKIDXM) to replace my current ROM (RGCINXM).
Could anyone please share their experiences?
Many Thanks.

According to the type of your rom your phone would be a redmi note 10 11 spes, models 2201117TG, 2201117TI, 2201117TL.
Could you confirm?

Thanks for your prompt response.
The phone is a Redmi Note 11 2201117TI. Not sure why would you narrow it down to a redmi note 10. Perhaps different model names in different geographical areas?

Many Thanks.

I wrote 10 but it's actually 11.
Don't bother with stock roms, install a Xiaomi EU rom that has the call recorder+playstore certified without root .

Thanks much. I was actually preferring to stick with stock ROM and not root the phone. If I were to stick with stock, would you or anyone recommend going for the NFC ROM from Indonesia (RGKIDXM)? I saw a couple of YouTube videos doing so, but wanted to make sure it wouldn't make things too messy.

The rom that I recommend does not require root
.
For the Indonesian rom no choice.
The bootloader must be unlocked(erase your data).
https://new.c.mi.com/global/post/101245
https://en.miui.com/unlock/index.html
then after 168 hours
Use this tool (read carefully, erase your data).
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/flash-tool-guide-use-xiaomi-flash-tool.4262425/
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do a backup with Micloud.
With Indonesian rom you will have to lock the bootloader with Miflash otherwise the play store will not be certified, which is not the case with the Xiaomi Eu rom.

Thanks, just read carefully. Makes sense to flash with the Xiaomi EU ROM that you suggested. Just a couple of quick questions. Given that these are third party, are they secure to use?
And I read that these are based on MIUI China ROM. So hopefully there won't be any issues with Play store?
And last question, if I were to flash with the stock Indonesian ROM, can I replace the RGCxxxxx (non NFC) verison with RGKxxxxx (NFC) version?
Thanks for your help again!

So ,you have a branded phone(Verizon).
Start by flashing a global rom (same if you install a Xiaomi Eu rom) without locking the bootloader with Miflash then the Indonesian rom by locking.
