For those with the bootloader locked and are not beta testers, there is a way to update to newest MIUI 13 (android 12) without losing data. I got the European (EEA) version of Redmi Note 10 Pro, so the links will be for EEA version of ROMS.
Here are the steps to do it:
1. Go to settings - about phone - MIUI version and tap on MIUI 12 6 or 7 times until "additional update futures are on" will pop up
2. Download your current version of MIUI 12 ROM https://bigota.d.miui.com/V12.5.7.0...AGlobal_V12.5.7.0.RKFEUXM_03d5ef5aec_11.0.zip. Download it using a browser, do not download it with MIUI updater! It would be recommended to have the last version of MIUI 12, in my case is MIUI 12.5.7.0
3. Download MIUI 13 https://bigota.d.miui.com/V13.0.3.0...AGlobal_V13.0.3.0.SKFEUXM_73299ee316_12.0.zip
4. Put the 2 downloaded ROMS in the same folder, on the internal storage of the phone - for example: internal storage/download/downloaded_rom
5. Go to settings - about phone - MIUI version and tap on the three dots on the right upper side of the screen and select Choose update package, go to folder where your downloaded ROMS are, choose V12.5.7.0.RKFEUXM/miui_SWEETEEAGlobal_V12.5.7.0.RKFEUXM_03d5ef5aec_11.0.zip and wait until the notification " Your device will reboot automatically to update to MIUI version V12.5.7.0.RKFEUXM " appears, DO NOT HIT "REBOOT AND UPDATE" OR CLOSE THE WINDOW!! Simply go to home screen.
6. Go to folder you downloaded the ROMS using file manager and rename miui_SWEETEEAGlobal_V13.0.3.0.SKFEUXM_73299ee316_12.0.zip to miui_SWEETEEAGlobal_V12.5.7.0.RKFEUXM_03d5ef5aec_11.0.zip, all you have to do is change the name of MIUI 13 ROM with the name of MIUI 12 ROM you have selected in the update of step 5. TO be able to do that you should change something in the name of MIUI 12 ROM name, you can delete the last letters or add some numbers or letters.
7. After changing the name of MIUI ROM go back to update present on recent and press on "Reboot and Update", the update process has started by decrypting the update zip, after decrypt is finished phone will reboot. Now all you have to do is wait for your beloved Redmi Note 10 Pro to apply the new update.
First boot after update will take some time, don`t panic just wait. I did update my Redmi Note 10 Pro by using this method because I have a locked bootloader and I didn`t joined the beta tester program.
This method can be used on all versions of Xiaomi, Redmi phones and all regions (TR, ID, RU, IN, EEA, GLOBAL, TW) by downloading and using the correct ROMS. If your download a wrong version rom, for example if your Redmi Note 10 is using Indonesian version of rom and you have downloaded the global rom updater won`t let you to do the update, a message like Unable to flash Custom ROM will appear.
If YOU choosing to follow this guide, I am not responsible for bricked devices.
This is perfect, just installed it. However it still has old style quick settings, they might change some design in first official build...
Did anyone noticed that it changed the boot up screen? It no longer says Redmi when turning on but rather just the Mi logo. Same goes for the booting process, goes back to the Mi icon with the 3 dots instead of MIUI's letters boot up.
Yes boot up screen logo is new.
Also to anyone considering doing this, it's still in beta as it shows.
It's jittery, laggy and not at all optimized, you won't be able to downgrade unless you have your bootloader unlocked (which I don't because the phone is new so I have to wait 162 hours).
So flasher beware.
Would anyone be able to provide an answer to the problem that I expose below ?
According to what I read on the following French site https://www.nextpit.fr/xiaomi-miui-13-mise-a-jour-smartphones-compatibles, MIUI13 would be based on Android 11 and not on Android 12 ???
It seems to me really curious, even impossible.
Thank you in advance for your opinion.

I don't think you can downgrade, unless you have unlocked bootloader.
I'm running this beta for a few days now without a problem. There should also be official update this month and i'm sure most of the bugs will be fixed.
Hello,
Thank you, thanks to you I installed https://bigota.d.miui.com/V13.0.3.0...AGlobal_V13.0.3.0.SKFEUXM_73299ee316_12.0.zip, and it works very well,
then I installed TWRP twrp-3.6.0_11-0-sweet.img,
then magisk
and finally SystemRW/SuperRW (feat. MakeRW) v1.32.
everything is OK even the RW partition.
1000 times THANK YOU

Actualizado a miui 13 siguiendo el tutorial, sin problemas, ya tengo miui 13, todo operativo junto con android 12
If I install the beta version this way, then when the stable comes, I will be able to install it normally?
Bro I install miui 13 Eea Beta version 13.0.2.0 from recovery ROM . Now I want to go back to miui 13 Eea stable version is there to go to stable ROM without pc
Can confirm this is working. Tricked MIUI to update from 13.0.6.0.SJDEUXM to 13.0.7.0.SJDEUXM. Trying by updater app said "This rom is intended for internal testers". This is f*cking genius xD
Hi ,
I have 13.0.1 installed already on my phone and i want to install it again but get an error "the rom is intended for "internal testers" make sure your account has the required permission" , how can i bypass this ?
theres an easier way, in the updates section just tick the box for receiving updates sooner than everyone else, i had it ticked and it updated a couple week back to 13.0.13 EEA. Much easier than flashing. personally i wouldnt recommend it, my phone came brand new from Xiaomi already loaded with 13.0.3, everything worked great, but since it updated to a Beta the battery life is worse, and the phone gets extremely hot when charging and it does seem slower and laggier. i havent managed to downgrade because bootloader is locked and i really dont want to unlock it and ive never flashed a xiaomi so im not 100% on the process. If i had the choice i would stay away from anything above 13.0.3 until the issues are resolved.

Yes, plenty of videos online and posts regarding downgrading, however it can only be done officially and safely by unlocking the bootloader and flashing the rom you want to go back to and will wipe all your data. that is the only official way, you can upgrade without unlocking, but to downgrade you need to unlock it.

I hope I can get some help here. Today I started getting add pop-ups on my Xiaomi MI5 that's 3 days old. I installed a lot of applications, but they have all been previously installed on my HTC Desire 500 and my Nexus 7 and I never had any issues. The adds pop up after I unlock the screen, sometimes it's just a Home screen that's not responding (until I hit the Back button), sometimes it's a full add. Adds vary a lot and change from Pokemon training spam to Anti-spyware apps. On some adds it said it's sponsored by "StartApp". On one add there was an information button, so I got some message from "com.aqplay.mediation" about permission settings (nothing really relevant, couldn't uncheck anything anyways).
After scanning the phone with Avast, MBAM and Addons Detector, I got nothing. I also went through a crapload of forums looking for answers, tried to uninstall some apps that I installed today, but nothing helped.
In the end I noticed that the built-in application "File Manager" keeps ending up in my Recent Applications list, even though I never opened it. So I tried to stop and uninstall it, but with no luck. There is a process that looks suspicious so I would like to ask anyone to check if they have the same process on their device.
Under Settings - Installed apps - Running - File Manager there is a Service (second from the top) called "zdrhhriggx". Can anyone verify they have the same Service running?
Since it's a built in app, I can't Disable or Uninstall File Manager to be 100% sure, but so far I have found a workaround.
In the Security application I went to Data Usage settings - Data usage stats - System apps - File Manager and I disabled it's Mobile and Background data access. I am unable to turn off the WLAN setting for it though. But so far, no adds in the last 30mins.
If anyone has a good permanent solution to this problem (I know I can do a factory reset, but let's make that the last option) I'd be forever grateful.

I believe you are correct, stupid of me not to check the ROM version. Thank you very much.
You are using Vendor Rom maybe . Unlock your bootloader and flash Official Rom . If you are using root . Install adaway to make some ads dissapear .
Same issue with ads and massive wlan battery drain (vendor rom from xiaomi.eu). unlocked it, flash the official and worked like a charm.

Yup, same here with the WLAN battery drain. But the adds stopped for some reason the last 2 days. I'm planning on flashing it, just not sure which procedure to follow. Can you please tell me if you had to Unlock the device through the MIUI website request?
I've found this thread to be helpful: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5/how-to/xiaomi-eu-7-8-13-0-maacndb-t3412638
I'm just not clear on the difference between flashing with the fastboot update (MIUI flashing tool) or using Mi PC Suite with Full ROM?
Would you be so kind as to provide more precise steps on what you did to unlock and flash it?

Use the fastboot method as described on the MIUI website, that will work.

hence i downloaded the Global ROM from Miui for 5s - 8.0.3.0 MAGMIDI "normally". now while trying this, it says "i am updating to a older version & all data will be lost". is it possible to really have a newer version on phone which isnt there in MIUI website?
or something is wrong?

Since we are assuming you are on a fake ROM with ads, I'd certainly flash the official ROM, no matter what the fake one says.

i successfully flashed to GLOBAL ROM.
while i was doing this, there was no folder called "Downloaded_rom" for the ROM to put, i created a folder & put the ROM there. then flashing will go through normally. no need of Fastboot or anything.
Now no ads or any sort of issues

Hi,
Is there an easy step by step way of me installing the MIUI 10 beta on my UK Global mi 8?
I am using a Mac, I dont want to install twrp or unlock the boatloader.
Can anyone help?
Currently I am on 9.6.6.0 MIUI Global 9.6 Stable if this helps anything
Thanks in advance
I don't like MIUI, and i'm currently using Havoc OS (you should try it out, but you will need to unlock the bootloader).
Anyways i know the steps:
1.Update MIUI 9 to MIUI 10 from the update tab in settings.
2.Download miflashtool and install it
3.Download the beta rom (The fastboot version) from here
4.Flash it with the tool (there are many guides on xda or the miui website.
5.Profit
Download miui 10 global beta rom from en.miui.com.
Copy rom file (zip) to your phone.
Go to Setting>About>Miui Version>Press three dot>Choose package>Choose zip file.

So you should update to miui stable 10.2.2 then switch to beta.
These are the things I know,
1) if I try to download the update from the MIUI site, I usually get something like "cannot download" followed by "downloading"
2) I am still stuck on 9.6.6.0 MIUI Global 9.6 Stable, not been rude or racist on this but every single YouTube guide I have tried watching is usually done by an Asian person rattling through the process as quickly as possible.
When is the MIUI 10 actually coming out of Beta? and coming live to the phones?
Thanks
Hi all.
I've just bought this device. When I first launched it, it was on miui9, i updated to miui 10 stable 10.0.3.0 (8.1 Android) via ota. Then, I saw that I could also upgrade to miui 11. However, I've read that battery is worse than Miui 10 so I don't know If I should install it.
I've unlocked the recovery because I want to try some custom roms but I'm a bit scared of the anti-rollback.
Could you please tell me what should I do?
Thanks all.
Before you do anything you need to figure out which device you own. You bought it and you already unlocked the bootloader? That generally takes 360 hours, are you sure it wasn't already unlocked? If it was unlocked you probably have a Chinese device, and in that case be extremely careful about not relocking the bootloader. if the phone is not bound to your account ( linked to you personally) then you could brick it and have no recourse.
if you unlocked it yourself and you have a locked device , then don't worry about anti-rollback. So far it has not been implemented. Next, you heard wrong about Miui 11, its battery is equally as good. Although the best version of Miui and currently the most stable Android 10 overall is Xiaomi.EU which is a custom rom based on the china beta but globalised, with Google services.
Again do your homework, avoid extremely old posts that are no longer relevant. Never attempting upgrading your screen refresh and never flash someone else's persist image and you will be good. This community has tons of infor...read a lot and take your own notes.

Hi Thanks for your reply.
My device is global version (not just global ROM, I do know the difference)
I am unlocked the bootloader using the Xiaomi official tool, i had to activate the developer tools on the device and check the bootloader status and the button which was there ( U know what I mean). Besides, when I turn on the device it says unlocked.
I've read that miui 11 has kinda bad sot because of miui and/or the bug with WhatsApp. So I don't know if I have to update via ota and If I do that I don't know if I will have any problems while trying to install a custom ROM.
I've had a Xiaomi before so I know that I shouldn't install strange zips.
Thank you

Yes, the last build of Xiaomi.EU had worse SOT than usual ( about 5 hours. However, the issue was only with one of the weekly builds) I personally resolved that issue for myself by flashing the kernel from the previous build. Also, Xiaomi.EU is updated every Thursday so later today there will be a new build that will very likely resolve the issue. On the other hand the stable builds do not have an issue with SOT. At least not in my experience. I have averaged around 8 to 9 hours SOT.
I don't use Whatsapp, so I can't help you with that.
Since you were previously on stock you will need to backup your data, if you are still using stock, backup to MiCloud as well. This way if you use a Miui based rom you can quickly restored most of your data and partial settings. You will also need to format use storage (type yes, reboot to recovery)

I've just updated to miui 11 stable via ota.
BTW, Is TWRP the best recovery for this device isn't it? I've read that exist other types of recovery (not CWM but someones).
And my last question, I cannot find which version of gcam fits on miui 11 (Android Pie). Is there any thread, telegram channel?

Personally I use the TWRP that I posted here : I talked to a few friends / android developers on other devices and several of them believe that this a TWRP issue.
I have not had any more of these issues since using this TWRP https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=80952013&postcount=121
If using AOSP, you should use the official version.
The best Gcam ( I Think is by Sanity )
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-san1ty/
FYI the builds made for the Poco F1 and Razer 2 are also compatible.

As I've posted in the official twrp thread, I was able to install twrp and get to it but after power off the phone and try to get there again miui recovery was there instead.
I've installed the last build of twrp 3.3.1.1.
Maybe If I install magisk via TWRP I will have twrp *forever*.(?)

No problem.
After installing TWRP, you must initially install Root and then reboot to recovery.
Often you will see a message asking if you want to install the TWRP manager, click those boxes and then proceed to rebooting to recovery.
If you are using the full stock Rom, you must have root, so anytime that you flash the official Global stable rom, or an update, flash root again...unless you see via the Recovery terminal that Root maintained it's persistence.

Hello there!
I have a Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Pro, and yesterday I made the grave mistake of hitting that "update" button. What used to be a close to perfect smartphone turned into a pile of trash with about 10 GREAT functions REMOVED. Instead they added 10 new phone-destroying functions which make this phone close to unusable for me at the moment.
That being said, I obviosuly want to downgrade my phone to the version it came with apparently is V12.0.15.0.RKFMIXM (Global). Is it safe to downgrade to this version from the version I'm on now 12.5.1? Even if it's not safe, could you please tell me how likely it is that my phone ends up bricked?
Thanks! I hope this works!
If you have updated it using Official Updater app, then there is a high risk of bricking your phone. It depends on ARB index.
Try flashing Fastboot ROM using Mi Flash tool. If it's not safe to downgrade, Mi Flash will prevent you from flashing it.
Yes, I used the official updater app in settings.
OK so you're there's a chance? Because this 12.5.1 version is complete and utter ****. I REALLY want to downgrade. Please help me out here, this version is SO BAD that I have to buy a new phone if the downgrade doesn't work.
In order to use Mi Flash tool, your bootloader has to be unlocked. If you are not familiar with these process, I suggest you to follow this method instead.
This is how you go back to a previous version of MIUI: revert your Xiaomi a buggy update - Xiaomi News - World Today News
When we update our Xiaomi we run the risk that this new update contains bugs. Although Xiaomi tests each new version before launching it, like any other software there may be undetected errors that spoil our user experience. It is not the first time that an update released by Xiaomi negatively...

Warning: Someone else stuck in bootloop while tried to use this method. check this
If you are not familiar with recovering phone from brick, decide yourself whether it's worth the risk. Alternatively, you can wait for the next update, which might solve your problem.
Have you tried updating to the latest 12.5.3?
I'm stuck on this crappy 12.5.1 as well but I don't want to unlock anything or wait for the update... So my question is can I use the Mi Tool without unlocking the bootloader?

I have not, because I have not received the update on my device yet. However I don't expect them to fix these god-awful "updates" in the next update, hence I'd rather just downgrade, which I'll probably try to do tomorrow. 12.0.15.0 was absolutely perfect (the version it came with) and I KNEW I shouldn't have updated ((

I have another Xiaomi I don't care about which ALSO has the horrible 12.5.1. Since I don't care about this device I'll try downgrading it tomorrow, and if it works I'll do it again with my Redmi Note 10 Pro
I'm really curious about those features you said they remove and why miui 12.5 is so bad, I was just about to update!
Hi! I would also like to know what is wrong with 12.5.1 on the redmi note 10 pro. Mine has 12.0.6 (Russian version I think), and I'm trying my best to figure out how to update it to 12.5.1, but I've read many comments saying it is trash.
Can you tell me your biggest complains? What I don't like about my current version is the 10 seconds always on display, and not being able to select an icon pack for the system launcher. Do you have those features on 12.5.1?
My friend, the uptade to 12.5 did not ad or remove any aplications or funtions.
My be you collect them from any place.

So my question is can I use the Mi Tool without unlocking the bootloader?

No, installing a Fastboot ROM requires your device to have an unlocked bootloader.

DON'T update! Here's a list of the worst ones:
1) They REMOVED the progress bar from the media players on the lock screen, so now you CAN'T scroll through music and audio directly from the lock screen.
2) The screen automatically shuts off after 5 seconds after receiving a notification and there's NO WAY to increase it, making it impossible to read more than 1 notification.
3) When swiping/deleting the last notification the notification screen automatically closes REGARDLESS if you had a media player or something else you wanted to check out, so now they're forcing you to open it up again every time you close the last notification.
4) The notification screen now has a non-removable "No notifications" text, as if I needed someone to TELL me that. Completely unnecessary and ugly as crap.
Note that these are NOT bugs, but features, so if you update you're never getting these features back.
I use a smartphone when I work and this crap only makes things harder for me! Downgrading today!
EDIT: These are ONLY my main issues, the whole update is super buggy and laggy ALL AROUND, so be prepared to add aother 100 bugs and glitches to that list!
Are you sure that you had that options before, at last 2 one impossible....

In order to use Mi Flash tool, your bootloader has to be unlocked. If you are not familiar with these process, I suggest you to follow this method instead.
This is how you go back to a previous version of MIUI: revert your Xiaomi a buggy update - Xiaomi News - World Today News
When we update our Xiaomi we run the risk that this new update contains bugs. Although Xiaomi tests each new version before launching it, like any other software there may be undetected errors that spoil our user experience. It is not the first time that an update released by Xiaomi negatively...

Warning: Someone else stuck in bootloop while tried to use this method. check this
If you are not familiar with recovering phone from brick, decide yourself whether it's worth the risk. Alternatively, you can wait for the next update, which might solve your problem.

The recovery rom is for TWRP, fastboot rom is of course fastboot flashing.

I downloaded the fastboot load because it's easier to install. Great news, I downgraded my Redmi Note 7 without issue and it's working flawlessly! Then I tried unlocking my Note 10 Pro, but it's telling me to wait 168 hours. Can I use it during that time? Because I kind of need to.
Thanks!

I thought you were asking about the method that described in the link I shared, which needs Recovery ROM. If you have unlocked bootloader, you have plenty of possibility.

Yes you can. But don't touch any options in Developer settings related to unlocking procedure. Specially do NOT logout Mi Account.
If you are going to unlock, you should try MIUI EU ROM first, It might solve your problem.

Definitely won't be messing with developer mode any more this week, and yeah, I'm not logging out either. Thanks!
I'm waiting a week before trying anything else. According to xda-developers you have to wait if you want to unlock.

Sorry I mean after unlocking your bootloader, you should try EU ROM first (before flashing official ROM).
Hi guys, I bought my Xiaomi 11 ultra via an exporter almost 6 months ago and I have been using it happily.
I updated to MIUI 13.0.9 recently based on the phone OTA updates and I have been experiencing issues with dark mode and notifications. Some apps don't show notifications despite me disablling MIUI battery saver and enabled auto start.
Been browsing this forum for awhile and reading all the guides but can't seem to find one that allows me to root and swap to Global ROM without losing my data.
I have tons of pictures and data in my phone that I don't want to lose.
Can anyone be so kind to point me the directions?
Regards,
James
Simplest and only way, LOSE YOUR DATA!!!
The other thing you can do is back your data up over cloud (google or Xiaomi) and then restore your phone once rom has changed
Can the unlock bootloader / flashing of the global ROM or eu rom work with the latest version of CN ROM?

Global rom still 12.x so if u want to flash from CN 13.x to global 12.x U must change some line in fastboot file so can downgrade rom
EU ROM seems like it's on MIUI 13.0 already. Would you recommend me unlocking bootloader and flashing MIUI 13 EU ? I'm backing up my phone now, just a little worried about my Google authenticator and my other crypto defi wallet like metamask and etc .

EU rom is china rom with some mode to make it global. And miui 13 stil has alot of bug (im using it 1-2 months) and i will change back to global rom soon
With me, eu rom sometimes got so laggy, refresh rate suddenly change to very slow value. Never met it in global rom.
Unlocked and flash another rom is a must do thing if u dont live in china. So u can try global or EU, what do u feel better. I come from eu to global, then try eu 13.x and now really want to fall back to global now

I would also recommend you to use Swift Backup for App / Messages / Call logs / WiFi PW backups. It works for most of the Apps so that you don't loose anything. Usually with Banking apps the restore doesn't really work. But there is usually also no data to keep with it. I always copy the Download and DCIM folder directly to my Laptop and after local backup also the full Swift Backup folder. Then I'm ready to wipe. I do that on a regular base (every 4-6 weeks) as the daily updates of CN rom sometimes make the phone a bit unstable.
Don't forget that your phone will be wiped once you unlock the bootloader.
when you unlock your bootloader there is no other option then format. It happens without asking it is just mandatory. Like @RoughNeck1971 says... i also use Swift to backup and copy DCIM directly to laptop
Question though, I'm now currently on MIUI 13.0.9 on CN ROM through OTA ever since I got it out from the box.
Am I able to flash to global ROM from MIUI 13 CN to Global ROM MIUI 12?
I read that OTA doesn't work anymore after changing ROMs,
So the propery way is to
1. Unlock bootloader,
2. Flash Global ROM with TWRP
3. Then full back up with TWRP whenever I want to update it to a new version of global stable ROM?
Sorry guys I haven't been in xda for a long time, since the times HTC sensation was released I meddle with some roms and radio updates.
Appreciate your guidance.
Regards,
James

First of all - when you go back to MIUI 12 on Android 11 then TWRP is the right way to go as it supports it. Then you don't have to care about changing line in fastboot for downgrade. But as long as you have TWRP installed instead of the xiaomi recovery you can't do OTA. But you can just "update" with the new full rom version.
If you should do a full backup with TWRP - can't really say as I never tried to restore a full backup. I wouldn't rely on it to be honest. Better to have everything backed up and do a new install if there are issues.

I am really new to custom roms after using iPhone for a really long time and forgot how to root the phone.
I am fresh on CN ROM, on 13.0.9.
Can someone verify or guide if the steps I listed are correct?
0. Backup all files
1. Unlock "bootloader" with Mi Flash Unlock
2. Install ADB and flash TWRP Image
3. Install Global ROM (just to clarify, i can go back from 13.0.9 CN to Global MIUI 12 right?)
4. Check with Magisk that I am indeed rooted.
5. Restore backup from Swift / PC / Xiaomi Backup
You had it right. But you need to keep in mind that it takes usually 7 days until your bootloader will get unlocked! Sou you "apply" for it and then the counter starts from 168 hours to 0. Only then it will be unlocked. Unfortunately there is no way to get around that.
Hi guys, is it possible to flash the 512GB variant with a EU/Global rom or this can be done with a 256GB variant only?
You will lose data. You must format when you change ROM branch. I have Xiaomi EU ROM on my 11 512 Ultra now but did have global. Storage size doesn't affect ROM installation.

But he is now at miui 13, so he must change fastboot file to rollback to miui 12 fastboot rom first
Then unlock, flash twrp and do everything else
Ah - OK. I understood that you have no problem installing Android 11 when you have TWRP running. Only to install Android 12 via TWRP has issues.

You must format data when changing ROM branches. This due to possible partition differences between them. You may end in a boot loop until you do format.
