Hello everyone
I just bought 2 xiaomi MI5 phones, one for me and one for my girl. Both are the 32GB versions with 3 gb ram, one gold one normal. I bought them from 2 different vendors in bucharest (because of the color, of course).
Now, the issue is this:
- gold phone has MIUI global 7.3.4.0.0 (MAACNDD) stable
- black phone has MIUI by xiaomi.eu version 7.8.11.0 (MAACNDB) stable
I lokked out this 2 versions and i found out that they are not official also they have some crazy **** apps like 9apps and mobomarket and a weird keyboard.
Now i tried to update the gold versions to the latest version and says no update available via the iupdate manager from settings. Same to the black one.
The gold one has an signal issue with Telekom Romania and the black one has a masive WLAN battery drain (43% ?!). I google the WLAN battery drain and found a related post from Redmi note 3 that said it's some kind of ROM issue that masks another app that is usign the phone like hell.
I applied for the unlock from Xioami, now my question is:
Should i wait for the unlock and add the latest stable official update or go to another rom (before i had note3 and S5 from samsung and rooted them both)?
If your advice is to go to another rom, do i need to wait for Xiaomi to unlock the devices or it s a go without it?
Look forward for some help, i really love this phone, is perfect for me and my needs.
Best regards
Mihai

Hi,
First of all, I don't own mi5, but I had the same problem when I purchased my Redmi Note 3 Pro (Snapdragon version)
It was loaded with unofficial MIUI ROM
(you can figure if it is unofficial or not by checking the version, OFFICIAL ROMS are MIUI x.x.x.x and UNOFFICIAL ROMS are MIUI x.x.x.x.x or so I was told)
So, my phone came with locked bootloader, the same as yours as I understand.
Problem with locked bootloader is I can't install ROMs or custom recoveries from fastboot.
Flashing OFFICIAL ROMs I downloaded from their official website using Updater App is a no no either, since I was on unofficial build (the updater app always return can't verify package error everytime I try to flash official ROM)
So the last resort seems to be applying to permission for unlocking bootloader ....
Until I found out that it is possible to flash OFFICIAL ROMS from fastboot without unlocking bootloader.
The trick is going to EDL (download) mode when you're in fastboot using ADB. After you're in EDL you can use mi flash tool to flash official flashboot ROMs.
You can search the forums for how to do that, and since I don't own mi5 I never tested it, but from what I understand the mi5 have EDL mode, just like Redmi Note 3 Pro, because it is Qualcomm thing.
I was able to get back to official ROM with this method much sooner before my permission was granted (took 8 days before I got approved).
And please remember above method only if you want to go back to official build, don't flash custom ROMS (idk if that's possible) at least until you got your bootloader unlocked, flash custom recovery (twrp) then from there you can install custom ROMs.
Hope this help
Cheers.

Glad you've gotten it sorted, should have MIUI 8 now too as that's available, great phones once you get the vendor crap from them, mine (Mi5 Pro White 128GB) was the same purchased from EGlobalCentral

Hi all,
I am kind of very frustrated with my new Mi Note. I have wasted the whole day today trying to find out how I can archive the following:
1. Get a Rom with supports either Germany or Ireland as region
2. Root
I have tried various things such as TWRP and CWM but I am not making progress. Status as of now is that I a have MIUI 7 Global 5.12.10 Beta and TWRP 2.8.5.0 on my device but root checker say *no root* and still the regions I require are non existent. Basically back to were I started.
I hope anyone of you can help. Thanks in advance.
Take a look here http://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/6-1-7-11.29342/
Its 7/1/2016 version that has bootoloader unlocked.Try to flash with TWRP 2.8.6.0
Get a better TWRP version from this post and use it to flash a Xiaomi.eu ROM. European language translations and root access are included by default. I've been using their version 5.12.31 (with some changes I described here) and I can confirm it's been working well. The newer version 6.1.7 seems to have no significant changes so it shouldn't introduce any new errors as well if you use that instead. I'd avoid any later versions for now until the bootloader lock-related problems clear up.
So I have reviewed the excellent threads on unlocking, installing TWRP and rooting the Mi Mix.
Including these
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-mix/help/to-getting-mi-mix-t3504613
and
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-mix/how-to/guide-flash-global-china-rom-root-gapps-t3510592
I've also reviewed http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-mix/development/recovery-official-twrp-xiaomi-mi-mix-t3498960
The problem I can't get around is frozen screen TWRP. I assume I have a TWRP/ROM mismatch as I have no issues with Minimal FB/ADB and actually flashing TWRP. But no combination that I have tried has given me working TWRP.
Any advice or recommendations would be vastly appreciated.
Just to be clear, I have unlocked the boot loader, I have Developer mode and USB Debugging activated. I have tried this with the most recent CN Stable (8.0.11.0) and CN DEV (6.12.8) ROMs and I have tried both TWRP 3.0.2 AND 3.0.2-RC1
Frustrated as this device is near perfect, I just need to get rid of the crapware and make a few Root requiring tweaks
Thanks

If you're on the latest EU ROM (weekly updates),you need the latest (EU) TWRP RC2 (link is in the OP) :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-mix/development/recovery-official-twrp-xiaomi-mi-mix-t3498960
Read the entire thread if need be,you'll see myself & others had the frozen TWRP on the Dec2 EU ROM (weekly) update & it was remedied by the RC2 update to (EU) twrp
If you're running anything else,IDK,I switched to the EU ROM ASAP & haven't looked back,it's gonna be my daily driver until CM 13/14 (hopefully) becomes available.

Thank you brother. I saw you posts when you mentioned having the same problem. Unfortunately I'm having this issue on the CN Stable ROM. Can I install the EU Weekly through the Installer app on the MIX? Or do I have to use the MIFlash tool?
Thanks

@RMXO had a similar issue when stuck w/an unresponsive TWRP & managed to get his phone/TWRP functional again before @jcadduono updated the EU TWRP.
Take a look at @RMXO's posts in that thread on how he got back to a working TWRP.

I'm starting to wonder of the current CN Stable TWRP is unable to work with 8.0.11.0 much like the problem you had and RMXO had with the last EU release. I had backup of the stable CN ROM that works for me for now, but I'd really like to get Adaway and Titanium Backup working

I had China stable 8.0.11.0 and I managed to get it working, you need to use built-in updater and download EU rom manually and put it in your device. Then use the updater to update. I had to do it twice as first time i still got China stuffs which i didn't wipe. So if you have problem, update it once to EU, then wipe/factory reset the phone and flash again to make sure it's all clean.
A good indicator of success will be google play store, after flashing EU rom, if you don't see google play store, it means you have to wipe and flash again.

I tried to manually install the EU Rom (xiaomi.eu_multi_MIMix_6.12.8_v8-6.0.zip) through the Installer and I received a "can't verify" error. Is this the EU ROM you mean? If so did you have to do anything special to get it to flash?

I've used nothing but TWRP to install ROMs on this device,once for the initial switch from the Global (vendor) ROM to the EU (weekly) ROM & twice to update the EU ROM.
FWIW,my MIX was bootloader unlocked out of the box.
Sent from my lithium using XDA Labs
I've unlocked my phone, installed twrp recovery and lineage os 14 latest build.
Now I'm selling my phone and I want to return to stock mode, so latest global stable and stock recovery.
Is it possible? And how can I do?
Inviato dal mio MI MIX utilizzando Tapatalk
Of course you can. Download the fastboot ROM (Stock Global or Chinese), decompress it into your C: drive, download and run the MiFlash tool, select the path where you have placed the decompressed stock ROM, select the ''Clean All' option from the MiFlash tool and press 'Flash'. You should be back to complete stock and ready to sell off your phone.

But be sure to uncheck relock bootloader.
Hey guy's,
I'm late joining the Mi Mix party - I've been using android since the original Samsung Galaxy S including Galaxy Notes and Nexus devices.
Since those early days when everything had to be done without toolkits I've also got myself employed and have just not had the time I once had due to no longer living alone.
Because this phone has been around a while I've noticed that a lot of the guides are a bit confusing/conflicting so just wanted to ask a few questions..
I am on MIUI Global 9.2 Stable (after I got the phone I did an OTA update.)
Here's what I want to do ....
Unlock the bootloader
Root
Install TWRP
and finally after that pick out and install a Rom.
So firstly do I have to install drivers before doing anything else. And on one guide it had 2 sets of drivers, Qualcomm & USB ?
Then do I just download adb & fastboot tool
and then the Mi Flash Tool and that's it ?
Source:
https://www.getdroidtips.com/unlock-bootloader-mi-mix/
or is there a newer more detailed guide with newer files ?
Just to add that I was going to try and unlock the bootloader via the official route but got a little confused when setting up the Mi/MIUI accounts before doing some more research and realizing there's an unofficial way.
The last time I used adb/fastboot it was a huge package compared to the now couple of files.
Also is there anything I need to do when first installing TWRP regarding choosing the partition options.
Thanks for reading and any response - Ps I'm in UK and have 2 Sims in phone and do I need to worry about the recovery phone number/details.
Thanks in advance.

Go the official route to unlock, miflash comes with the drivers, don't think there are any updates from the ones in the guide,not sure what you mean with the Sims, are contacts saved to Google if so nothing to worry about. You will only need miflash to get back to stock unless you got vendor ROM which doesn't seem to be the case.
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 see.
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?
Thanks for all.

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*.(?)
Thank you man

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.

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.

On some lower end phones yes. But Note 10 Pro MIUI comes with Android 12.

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.
