If you have flashed any Roms based on sathosh's sir's trees I.e unofficial RR,Aicp,Aokp and cm. Your bootloaders have been updated to mm bootloaders which are based on a leaked build. This bootloader is not officially supported by cm trees, thus if you flash a ROM when you are in this bootloader that is based on official cm trees,then you will get bugs like settings and security FC.
How do I fix this?
The fix is simple. Backup all your stuff.
1) If you have unlocked officially.
Then flash a miui recovery rom. Boot into fastboot, open mi unlock and unlock your bootloader.
2)If you have unlocked unofficially
Then flash via fastboot with patched emmc appsboot file. And type fastboot OEM unlock-go .
Do this if some bugs persist then post on the respective ROMs thread.
You will never walk alone
Keep it brah
Much needed guide. Thanks

Tell me if i am wrong
I am officially unlocked
Flashed unofficial rrremix 8th june build afterwards unlocked bootloader via mi unlock tool
Yesterday made a full wipe flashed unofficial rr remix 20th june built which i guess is based on custom cm sources as after flashing i checked if the bootloader was locked thru adb and it wasnt but i did not have any app fcs or any problems with the rom
Conclusion if i am right with my statement
If u r unlocked officially flash any rom based on miui sources after flashing unlock bootloader again if ur bootloader is locked
Then u can flash any rom with cm13 based kernel without flashing miui rom
Correct me if i am wrong
I have done it and the latest unofficial rr build built on 20th june is based on cm13 sources not on miui sources
My way will work only if u r officially unlocked

If you have unlocked your bootloader officially , when you install cm13 roms with locked bootloader you can directly unlock them using Mi-unlock tool . But if you have unlocked your bootloader unofficially and after installing a rom if your bootloader is locked then, you would have to flash miui rom via MiFlash tool then unlock the bootloader using that rom(so you will loose your cm13 rom).

Sir i know that
I was only refering to op that if u officislly unlocked and flashed a custom rom with miui resources and want to flash a custom rom with cm13 sources u dont have to flash miui rom again u can only unlock the boot loader on exsisting rom and flash a cm13 sources based custom rom and it will run bugless

Even Santhosh's CM can be unlocked via Mi Flash without going back to MIUI ROM.
You people have'nt realized the existence of two bootloaders. Unlocking is diffrent. both bootloaders can be unlocked. But Roms based on official cm trees onlu support the lollipop boot loader and not the bootloader from the leaked build.

I was on AOSP 5.1, backed up using twrp Alka before flashing Santhosh CM13. Then I wiped and flashed Bliss, wiped and flashed unofficial Resurrection Remix. Can I just flash a Xiaomi.eu ROM through twrp and unlock it through MiUnlock after and that's it?

Man cm based bootloaders need not be unlocked they r originally unlocked only the miui based bootloaders r locked all the latwst roms except i guess by santosh m sir r miui based so u know better only issue is that all latest roms r nightly if u flash updates only do a clean install and when ur rim boots up set up as new device and dont restore frm back up

Man. Punctuation. Please.
Is the new RR unofficial ROM based on cm source or xiaomi?
OK, so if I am understanding OP correctly, what we need to do is re-unlock our bootloaders and then do a clean install of the rom containing the CM-based bootloader.
No , once you install a ROM for example cm13 by Mr Santosh , then your bootloader will be automatically locked , therefore you need to unlock the bootloader and then install cm based bootloader ROMs for example RR official .

Yes. That's what I meant.
If we took a backup using Alka TWRP while our bootloaders were unlocked before flashing a rom based on Santosh's trees, can we just restore that backup and then flash a CM based bootloader ROM?
Currently I am on RR (Unofficial 20th June Build). I unlocked my bootloader officially. Now i am trying to unlock bootloader again with MiUnlocker but it gets stuck at 99% with unknown error. If I want to switch to another rom (based on CM), should I require unlocked bootloader??

Hii... I'm unlocked officially and rooted with xposed installed. Not custom kernel or rom. I read on miui forum tht installing mm causes bootloop. How can I ensure it doesn't. Thanks.

Can we update the ROM via ota officially?
Im on ROM Global Beta 6.11.10, so can I installed the TWRP 3.0.2.1 on it with no problems?
official TWRP - where to - web site
always go with the latest realease
(if not stated otherwise by author/maintainer) and use the one made for your phone (if available).
Remember the rules of the miui (and of the fora): read&patience ... then try or test ... and sometimes go back
So for the official TWRP you can go visit their website and have a look there (otherwise roam this forum -and other ones- for valid alternate versions).
Go to the source: the TWRP website > choose your device
and also read the info (important!) > here the FAQ page

If your BootLoader is unlocked, it should be possible.
But unlocking BL needs MIUI China Developer or the MIUI Global Developer.
And i think you don't have one of those if i read it correct.

But it seems easy unlock the bootloader, I know that the request will not be answered immediatly, but it Will be the time to the developers make a stable version ofi the CM 14.1. I only fear to try to install the TWRP and Brick the device, so my question is that if any Mi5 with the unlocked bootloader can haver the TWRP flashed without risks

In fact, yes.
But no one can give you a garantee that it will work.
But there are lots of people now with TWRP on Mi5 (including me) and no problems, if you follow the instructions closely.
But you will need MIUI Chinese Developer version OR MIUI Global Developer version.
And you need first the BL unlocked.
You can after that also first install CM13, which is pretty stable, and later switch to CM14.1 when it is stable.
Sorry to ask, but by Global developer version you mean the Beta version? Im on ROM MIUI 8 6.11.10 Global Beta.. so its fine to flash the TWRP?..One more thing, here on XDA I saw on the GUIDE that te more updated version was TWRP 3.0.2.0, but to Mi5 currently is the 3.0.2.3 correct? And the only way to update the TWRP is to flash it again?

You need the developer versions to activate the Root option, then you can go on with TWRP installation.
MIUI versions:

MIUI Download versions:

Just follow these steps for TWRP installation:

I had indeed Global beta pre-installed on my phone. And after a little explore i found out that is the same rom as Global dev. So yes, i did unlock my Mi 5 with Global beta and then flashed twrp and CM 13.
At least i understand that it is the same from MIUI forum.
And anyway it worked.

How I feel about CM 13? Great rom. Everything worked fine and smoother than MIUI in my opinion. Now I've moved to CM 14.1 and there are few little bugs but overall i recommend also that as daily rom.
Hi there, when I got my Mi5, six months ago, I've used Miui for a week, but soon as I can I switched to Lineage OS, because I was used to Google Stock I had on my previous smartphones (Nexus, OPO).
Now I would like to try the new miui (probably xiaomi.eu or miuipro), and my question is: I need to take some precaution or I just go in TWRP, wipe all I need to wipe, flash the miui 9 rom, magisk (I need root) and reboot the phone? Is that all?
Same if I would came back to LOS? Wipe data/system/dalvik/cache flash LOS, Gapps, eventually magisk and I'm done?
Or something more is needed when moving from MIUI to LOS and viceversa?
Thanks, I've tried miui 9 on a Mi 5x and now I'm really interested in try that again on my Mi5
@maicasajusta flashing LOS or unofficial Miui versions is pretty straightforward!
In case you need to go back to LOS, sometimes it's required you flash a dev firmware...
so in case you get the Error 7 message, here's the link

that's exactly what I wanted to hear, thanks! yeah, I'm aware of error 7, I got it in one of the update of LOS and solved just as you said
Keep back this thread just so ask: what if I want to move back to MIUI GLOBAL (Stable/Beta), from LOS, and viceversa? I've read that there's some risk to relock the bootloader, is that true? I would love to try the new notification shade.
Thanks.
u neeed to wipe internal for installing los 15 from miui official
for miui9 can be flashed via miflash tool
also i'd suggest try masik miui/ miui x over the above two. Updated a little less regularly but far more stable and polished compared to the others

Official ROM? Yes. EU? No. So just flash EU if you want to try MIUI and still be able to switch ROMs easily.

Any P custom rom. I'm on Ambasadii. There is also Ultimate.

I know on the N9600, you can Odin atleast 3 versions back before the bootloader blocks it from going lower.

You need P kernel for P rom.
Q kernel for Q rom.
Q bootloader for Q rom.
Q bootloader is bootable for P rom, so it doesn't matter if you can't downgrade. You mentioned that the phone has twrp, so just flash a P rom if you don't want Q(but of course custom rom only, not official).
I upgraded my phone's booloader to android 10(baseband XXU4DSLA) before I flash SuperStable rom(android 10) but a bit buggy so restore back nandroid backup of Ambasadii(android 9). So my phone is now with andorid 10 bootloader but Pie rom

Are you able to provide me with a copy of your nandroid backup? I'm willing to try anything to get back on the pie bootloader and a pie ROM. I'm almost to the point now where I am wanting to sell this phone even though I do not want to sell it.

?You can flash a custom Pie rom eventhough your phone has android 10 bootloader. Just download a rom and flash it through twrp.
