Hello everybody,
I have to unlock the bootloader of this phone and then flashing global ROM with Xiaomi software.
Is it possible? I'm asking this cuz of the new information, that Xiaomi was blocking that operation.
Thanks.
sirius doesnt have global rom
Hi ! I have a noob question
They had three models of mi 8 the 64/128 & 256Go storage and two various models Global Version & a Chinese Version.
But really they had only one version per models of mi 8 but different Firmware of mi 8 ? Exemple for the 64Go model storage this is the same hardware of mi 8 and only the firmware change ? Chinese version or Global version ?
Thank you

Ok ! Thank you. Never lock bootloader on custom rom.
But I can lock it if I use Global rom.
Have a good day.

Ok thanks for response.
But I see with link if you use Global phone you can't use miui china version ?
If I unlock my BL and flash Custom Rom Xiaimi.eu based on China miui version Rom !
They had mistake if I make Ota update of Xiaomi.eu Rom ? No risk lock it and brick it ?
Ps : Yes I understand just don't flash the chinese stable or dev Rom and vise versa !!! With Custom Rom no mistake just if you use miflash don't lock.
Thanks.
You can have every custom rom you want.. for example xiaomieu,it doesnt mean something what kind of source it is. You can use xiaomieu based on china rom with your global version smartphone!
Btw xiaomieu doesnt have ota updates you need to flash manually from twrp every time.
Hi All,
I recently purchased a new Redmi K20 Pro off a friend who by mistake bought what I believe to be a Chinese ROM phone due to opening up apps in Chinese...
I have unlocked the bootloader and am ready to progress to flashing a new rom. However, I have seen in videos and read that you need to flash the correct rom in order not to brick the device. You can create issues by not using the correct vendor rom?
I have searched and I am unable to find a correct guide that will work for the device I bought...
Can anybody please point me in the right direction with what I need to do in order to get my phone to a global rom where all apps are in English please?

I've been looking and found this guide - May I confirm this will be what I need to convert to a global rom and not brick my device?

Thank you in Advance !!!
This is forum for 9T and you have PRO.
If you've unlocked bootloader you are good to go - flash twrp and enable usb debugging. See what model do you have in settings - it can't go wrong if you stick to specific device

Hello everyone.
A few days ago I was trying to downgrade my realme 8 4G to Android 11 when I accidentaly downloaded an indian rom file, wich led to me loosing NFC. If any of you could provide a global ROM and instructions on how to flash it it would be really nice of you.
Kind regards.
