[GUIDE] Mi Mix 2 stock MIUI - Unroot, upgrade to Android Oreo OTA, re-root

Disclaimer: I take no responsibility for your device. Use at your own risk!
If you have a rooted stock MIUI Mi Mix 2 running 7.x Nougat with encrypted data and wish to upgrade to 8.x Oreo via OTA:
Make sure you have fastboot on your PC. I'm not going to go into that here. Search and you will find it. If not, then flashing is not for you.
On your device: Open Magisk Manager and click Uninstall. This will remove root.
On your PC, download and install XiaoMi Flash Tool to install device drivers:
https://xiaomiflashtool.com/download/xiaomi-flash-tool-20170425
Download recovery.img to your PC from:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/bmz1xsqhb3v95mz/recovery.img?dl=0
Download this version of TWRP to your PC:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/nvrh79gbgrgio6d/Twrp+supersu_oreo.zip
Download no-verity-opt-encrypt 1.6 to your Mi Mix 2 from here:
https://www.nextgen-networks.de/de/...evices-recovery/29-no-verity-opt-encrypt.html
Download Magisk to your Mi Mix 2 from here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4450387&d=1521348853
Power off your Mi Mix 2 and boot into Fastboot mode by holding volume down and power.
Connect your device to PC with USB cable.
Open a command prompt and run
Code:
fastboot devices
to make sure your device is recognized.
Then run
Code:
fastboot flash recovery C:\recovery.img
making sure to put in the correct path to the recovery img that you downloaded from above.
Now reboot your device and go to Settings, About Phone, System Update, Check for Updates and install the OTA.
Your device should reboot and install the OTA and apply it.
Once you verify the OTA is installed, power off your device and return it to fastboot mode.
Open a command prompt and verify your device appears in fastboot
Then run
Code:
fastboot flash recovery C:\Twrp__chinese_Android8.img
making sure to put in the correct path to the TWRP img that you downloaded from above
After the TWRP recovery is installed, immediately boot into recovery (not system) by holding volume up and power.
Once in TWRP Enter your device passcode to allow access to device memory.
Flash no-verity-opt-encrypt 1.6 to prevent overwrite of TWRP by stock recovery.
Flash Magisk-v16.2(1620).zip to re-enable root.
Reboot to system

Thank you.

If you don't have an unlocked bootloader, you should be able to just accept the OTA upgrade and it will install properly.

Help! Bad Convert MiA2 to Mi6X

Try to install MIUI 10 Pie in my MIA2, I did all the steps well, even delete the Firmware Update files from the file, but when you pass it to the cell phone to install, pass the original and not the edited one, so install MIUI10 with the folder Firmware Update, which does not allow me to return to Android One, nor does MiFlash work, the cell phone works with MIUI without problems, but all the custom roms do not work, any solution? Or have I lost all hope with the AntiRollBack?:crying:

Check Antiroolback
Turn your phone to fasboot mode
Connect your Redmi Note 5 to PC with USB

General [X60 PRO+] Chinese variant - Official Stock ROM Collection

V2056A | PD2056 | 5G China variant
- PD2056B_A_1.11.13 HERE Android 11

thats good!
and how can i flash it?
My device is last week broken . is the rom flashable with fastboot? thx mike

How did you broken the device?

You can simply upload zip on device with adb command and flash by using stock recovery mode
adb push .....

I tried to flash my patched boot.img (via_magisk) with the MTKROOT V2.5.5 tool. -https://www.ayudaroot.com/root/vivo/como-rotear-los-telefonos-vivo-x60-pro-plus . The first problem was unlocking the bootloader. That did not make the tool. The tool failed .. I unlocked that manually in fastboot mode. After the bootloader was open, I tried the tool for the second time.
That was probably the serious mistake! The tool has transferred the patched boot img. So far everything was o. K. Then I booted to the Recovery Menu to clean the data and cache partition. (Factory Reset). Then restart system. Since then I have a bootloop and it was not possible to boot into recovery mode.
Then I flashed from the Indian Rom the boot and the recovery image.
Now the device booted again in Indian Recovery Mode (English). Then I tried to execute the recovery WLAN update. Unfortunately, the system has found no access points when searched.
!! F *** K !!
The next day I tried to flash the original CN-ROM with the QPST flashtool from https://www.needrom.com/download/vivo-x60-pro-plus/ ..
Here I had problems installing the Qualcomm driver for the EDL download mode or to boot the device in the EDL mode.
Without success!
Finally, I tried to flash all the items of the CN-ROM from Needrom via Fastboot. The Flash order of the items I had from the partition.xml file on the CN-ROM.
But I still have a bootloop ..
No access to the recovery WLAN Update-No networks are displayed ..
Do you have an idea for the EDL download mode?

My PC is over adb unautorized, after the Factory reset...

I managed to get this full rom from Recovery, there is a option to download the full last rom and burn. I use another phone with photo google translator to navegate in the menu.

I know this option with the update from the WLAN - but this option is no longer available to me - after the search for a network is completed, no further networks are displayed. He doesn't find any networks.

And the second problem was - I cannot import this Update.zip into the main directory because the PC is unauthorized.

It wasn't just the MTK tool that was wrong.
I think our mistake was you mixed recovery and boot of another Rom. I did that many years ago with Huawei but for me it was a hard brick. Better not mix!

yes i think thatat too. first step now- i try to put the phone in EDL download mode. Then I could try the Qualcomm Flash Tool -. .. But thank you anyway.

with which command did you unlocked the bootloader? I can't find a way.

@88user88 : i wish you the best.
Do you see a way to flash the indian ROM?

Question was not for me but:
I think i have a way that works. But for that I need the command to unlock the bootloader. Because none of the normal ones works.

hello i am a new user in vietnam, can you guide me in detail how to install . Thank you very much

I spent almost 5 hrs yesterday tried to flash from CN ROM, Origin OS to Global ROM, FunTouch OS. I used several methods including AFTool, QFIL, and QPST tool. None of them succeed.
AFTool - failed to flash because missing Fastboot batch file in the global firmware.
QFIL - failed to flash because, Qualcomm Driver 9808 not detected.
QPTS - failed to flash because, Qualcomm Driver 9808 not detected.
I like Origin OS but the reason I want to change to FunTouch OS is because Origin OS didn't come with Google Mobile Seevice package. In fact, 'Hey Google' also didn't worked out.

OK, if we manage to restore my device, I'll give you instructions on how you can unlock your bootloader. then at least I know that in an emergency you also have the option to restore your device.
otherwise it would be too unsafe for me ...
ok?-now you come!

Question Hard bricked

Hey (*´∇`)ﾉ
So I guess my redmi note 10 pro is hard bricked
Condition : Phone won't boot to fastboot or recovery. Phone won't turn on. Phone is on EDL mode by default and reads on 9008 port.
Case : I unlocked the bootloader and flashed custom recovery then loaded a custom rom on an external usb hard drive. I connected the usb to the phone OTG then flashed the custom rom from it through custom recovery. The flash failed for some reason and the phone hard bricked. (Didn't have root)
Solutions I have tried:
1- flashing fastboot rom with latest MiFlash and got edl authorization error.
2- flashing fastboot rom with old MiFlash and got edl authorization error again.
3- searching for Firehose file for the phone and I found none.
4- flashing fastboot rom with latest QFIL and no luck.
Any heads up for your brother and I'll be grateful.

which rom did you flash? sure it was for our device? (sweet)

1)Does the phone get to proper fastboot with logo? Or to something else?
2) Edl usually requires authorization
Unbrick Xiaomi using miflash | Authorization EDL flash Xiaomi | Authorized Account

3) Have you tried asking ROM creator for help?

Try flashing the standard Xiaomi MIUI Full ROM via MiFlash to see if you can boot the phone to System. Then go custom ROM from there.
Good luck.

Well, can see it's claimed but you can never be too sure about it can you? Or did you get that link from a trusted source. Unless it's from a trusted source I wouldn't flash it.

1- Unfortunately no fastboot with logo nor anything else but Edl.
2- So no work around?

Please advise whether I should give to the service

I also had the same problem every time, we can say that miflash tool doesn't work
I advise you to download the Roma in the fastboot version of your device, download the adb and fastboot tools then flash the file called install.sh I believe ( anyway there are three files in .sh one flash the Roma and check the bootloader, the other flash without erase the data and the last flash and delete all the data)
the command is, once the rom decompress to the same places as the adb and fastboot tools as well as the phone link to the computer in fastboot mode, /.name file.sh

Can't enter fastboot mode. Phone is dead, only miflash and qfil can see any device

I probably wasn't very clear then:
1. download the fastboot version of your rom here for example
2. install the adb and fastboot tools (there are plenty of tutorials)
3. unzip your rom in the same folder as adb and fastboot
4. put yourself in the same folder as your .sh files of your rom and
in the path bar of your file manager type cmd to open a terminal
5. connect your phone with a cable to your computer in fastboot mode
6. type in your terminal fastboot devices to see if the computer recognizes your computer your phone (if not install the fastboot drivers for your device there are tutorials on the net)
7. in your terminal type ./name of the file.sh and let it be, don't touch your phone any more in the meantime

To recover from hard-brick on xiaomi (qcom) phones. You need a authorized account (service center) or an exploit

Exactly. It's like a crappy bot message, right?? It's f*cking unreadable. I insist: if they don't speak english, why the admin allows them to post their poorly translated sh*t in here???

I think it's spam. I used "find in page" and seems like he just copied and pasted the lines.
