OTA Update with Magisk

I've Mi 9T Pro with Global MIUI 10.3.3.0 and magisk installed (i patched and flashed the boot image). I don't have a custom recovery installed.
Now i see that the last version of firmware is EMUI 11.0.3.0. My phone notify me only the OTA for the MIUI 10.3.4.0, so how should i update the phone without breaking or bootlooping? I supposed:
1) Flashing stock boot image of 10.3.3.0 (is the right way to remove magisk? I would reinstall later)
2) OTA to 10.3.4.0
3) Maybe OTA to 11.0.3.0 or installing manually
4) Flash Magisk patched boot image of 11.0.3.0.
Is the correct way? I'm missing some step? I don't want to reset the whole phone..
Thanks in advance.

Someone can help me?

If the update MIUI 11 is not shown from your system:
• Download the correct recovery ROM from here[/b];
• Put it in the folder "downloaded_rom" in the root of your internal memory;
• Select local update and then the ROM you placed in before;
• Install Magisk with the method you prefere (I suggest to modify the boot.img from a fastboot ROM).

But what about the current rom with Magisk installed, should i remove it first? Can i overwrite the boot image?
Flashing the full firmware (about 2.5gb) will erase my data partition?
Grazie.

It's not needed to uninstall Magisk before, because when you'll install the update through recovery, it will overwrite the boot partition. With the stock recovery you should be able to keep all your data and settings, but I suggest you to perform anyway a backup! Just in case.

Thanks again for the info. But just to be secure, here is reported the way to apply OTA with Magisk: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/blob/master/docs/tutorials.md
There talk about uninstalling Magisk and restoring boot image, A/B Partitions, non A/B Partitions, and i don't know which partitions my device have. Moreover it talk about to don't modify the /system but i don't remember if i touched something, maybe the build.prop...
But, based on your previous response, i deduce that this instructions are valid only if i flash incremental update. Instead, if i flash the full rom there should not be problems, i'm right?

Do not care about A/B partitions, as the Mi 9T Pro is a single partition device. So no problem related to installing files/updates to both partitions
Anyway, if the system detects that you have Magisk installed, simply uninstall it from the Magisk Manager, than proceed to the update

Recovery ROMs must be flashed in the recovery and have .zip file extension; fastboot ROMs must be flashed with MiFlash tool and have .tar.gz file extension.
First of all, identify you device (global, EU, China, Indian...) looking in your device information. You have to remember these two letters in the label of the ROM:
E.g. PFKEUXM, that indicate your phone vendor, while the first letter indicates the Android version.
In few words, you need the recovery ROM. You'll need the fastboot ROM if you want to install Magisk without TWRP (search in Mi 9T Pro forum for: "Install Magisk without TWRP") or if you want to perform a clean flash with MiFlash tool.
Last thing: you need to download the ROM, not the firmware.

Thanks. I've the European version, PFKEUXM. Anyway yes, after the upgrade i want flash Magisk without TWRP. With previous rom i've extracted the boot image from the update archive and patched with Magisk.

- Tried to install 11.0.3.0 with local update from updater but it say "flash to this stable version is not allowed".
- Tried to install 10.3.4.0 with local update from updater, the phone reboot in recovery and start flashing but at 1% say "update.zip is corrupted". I tried also to download and install this update downloading directly from the updater but same thing happen.
I've uninstalled Magisk from Magisk Manager app: i clicked Uninstall and then Complete Uninstall, not Restore images.
Any suggestion?

The updater app can only install updates for the same region. Your OP suggests you have a global phone, but it looks like you're trying to flash an EEA update. Currently 11.0.1 is the latest global version.

OK, yes you have the EU version already.
I don't know for sure, but I guess it won't jump from an Android 9 - MIUI 10 ROM to an Android 10 - MIUI 11 ROM.
You could try updating to the last MIUI 10 build first, and if that works, see if it will then update from the last 10 build to MIUI 11.

Hi, will Google Pay work on this ROM with unlocked bootloader?
I have a Mi11 with a preliminary Global ROM but it's rooted and unlocked and GPay does not allow me to add cards. I managed to unroot (removing /system/xbin/su) but GPay still does not allow me to add cards, so I believe it's the unlocked bootloader.
Is there a way to lock bootloader safely?
I have MiFlash but I've heard that flashing ROM with clear and lock option may brick device.
Thanks

As I said, I have a Mi11 with a MIUI 12 test build: the ROM is rooted and bootloader is unlocked, I managed to delte root removing "system/xbin/su" but Gpay still refuses to add cards

I just unlocked bootloader, no root ! with root it never worked.

Could it be that for test ROM that I have, which comes already rooted, even if I remove manually root, something remains in the system that make safetynet not pass?

maybe that there are some root files or something...
you can try, if you install the xiaomi.eu rom with full wipe/format data.

Is xiaomi.eu working fine? Any drawback? Is iit based on MIUI 12.5?

for me iit works amazingly well !!!
no problems so far. everything is smooth and fast.
yes it is Miui12.5 based

Ok, on device 1 I reflashed MIUI 12 test build, I removed root manually, root checker says I am not rooted but safetynet checker fails, maybe because it's not an officially approved Google ROM yet and it's stil an internal XIAOMI test build... After all XIAOMI engineer told me that if I lock the bootloader phone will even stop working (and that is why my 3rd sample got stuck in fastboot: will have to unlock now...)
Will test xiaomi.eu on device 2

I didn't face any problem after locking bootloader. Just download 12.1.2V fastboot rom and flash using MIflash tool. You can lock bootloader that time or not. It's your own choice. if you retain unlocked, playstore would be uncertified. after you flash 12.1.2, you will get OTA update of 12.5.1 wit a size 700mb~. it will update and you will have 12.5 on the way

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... )
[ROM][MIUI][star/mars] Xiaomi.eu ROM for Xiaomi MI 11 Pro / Ultra
How to install Xiaomi.eu ROM for Xiaomi MI 11 Pro / Ultra We will release fastboot ROM versions until TWRP for star/mars is released TWRP RELEASED Steps to install xiaomi.eu ROM for first time from China ROM (All your data and files on...
forum.xda-developers.com
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 .

NOTE FOR ALL:
Make sure to always extract and move the stock rom folder in root of c: drive (this helps avoid flashing errors)The path should look something like this:

Also make sure the same to unzip xiaomi.eu rom folder in the root of c: drive:
C:\xiaomi.eu_multi_HMNote11_YourVersionHere
Then flash Xiaomi.EU according to instructions above.
Alternatively If you want you can flash india , eea , turkey , etc variants of stock rom instead of global , then flash xiaomi.eu according to the instructions above. But keep in mind that the release date of stock rom that you are flashing should be closest to the release date of xiaomi.eu weekly rom.
Must do all the process again if flashing a new rom
If you get a error like this: assert failed _dynamic partitions package_extract_file(dynamic_partitions_op_list) ERROR 1
Then go to the guide here and re do all the steps in the guide and when it comes to flashing twrp, then use twrp 3.6.1 to flash rom then flash twrp 3.7.0 according to the process in guide (if the rom you flashed is a12/a13) or use shrp 3.1 instead of using twrp after re doing all the steps and then flash rom.
If mtp not working or device not getting detected as a portable device in any recovery then watch this guide here: GUIDE
Do not replace the recovery or try to update recovery that comes with roms. This can cause problems such as reboots, apps crashing,etc as recovery is integrated into boot partition in which kernel is also integrated.

Hybrid ROMs: The End of Recovery/Fastboot ROMs
During this Chinese New Year holidays break from building ROMs, we could put some time into research and have developed a new format for our ROMs. We are proud to announce the Hybrid ROMs. Why "Hybrid"? Well, because those ROMs are both Recovery ROMs and Fastboot ROMs, all in the same package...

Updated ! Thanks !

what is your experience after flashing the ROM. The system eats 18GB of space (is this normal or just my phone?) and I don't know why and even though a lot of spam is going away with this rom there is a lot more

So you used first install.bat.
I don't have this device but on my 12 pro the system takes 13GB (Xiaomi Eu rom).

Does anybody have a lag issue in the control center? 90Hz feels like 60Hz

Big woop. I don't want stock MIUI crapola. The whole point of XDA is better choices, not encouragement to return to the stock, bloated, ad-engorged OG software. The whole reason to buy a Snapdragon'd phone is ROMing. This will not make me go back.
EDIT: changed supposed stock MIUI users on XDA (everyone) to proven (me).

This is your opinion but not that of the 781 users of this version, for example.

I also don't want the xiaomi crap but I also want to use my phone in a usefull way, not having to deal with all the issues other roms introduces.
In my old phone (xiaomi 4x) the miui.eu rom was quite good and you could improve on it by deleting xiaomi system apps that you didn't want to use. I don't know whats the story now, but Im trying to learn.
Somebody said that the A/B partitioning scheme bloats the GB in the system but still 18 seems a lot to me.
Im still a bit scared to flash magisk which is annoying because i really want to root my phone to get rid of ads and stuff

Why are you scared to flash magisk ?
Btw , are you getting issues in which your device randomly reboots (with animation) sometimes and apps crash unnecessarily ?
I have no nfc Indian 6 64 variant and I get this issue in all .eu roms for my device .
These issues are nowhere to be found in other custom roms .

Magisk installs a bit funky with the RN11 since I stayed on the crDroid recovery. I recall I had to do the adb sideload method. Go under the Add Update section. You still need the boot.img and vbmeta.img from your installed ROM.

Actually, the recovery would not recognize the external SD. Nothing changed on it. I did freak a bit until the sideload worked from PC. Still won't read it in the stock crDroid 9.2 recovery but every other place it does.
Edit: it is just the recovery that fails to read it. Apps within system read it fine, and it mounts. "unsupported filesystem exfat" as seen in recovery. I did not format in exfat, though.

No I had no such issues , I have the version with NFC. I finally got magisk and adaware so now I will cool a bit before trying something different. LineageOS seems not supported anymore and from the other custom roms still not sure if you get more issues than miui.eu
