Dear all,
I got a mi5 with a ROM Global Stable 7.2.8.0.0 (MAACNDB)
I tried to change it to the latest official one.
I read on Internet that i can upload it without unlocked the bootloader, via this way (MiPCSuite - China) :
en.miui.com/thread-309629-1-1.html
Unfortunattely, after the transfer, my Mi5 reboot and I only got a black screen with MI logo...
rebooting in recovery mod is not working anymore, but fastboot yes.
What should I do ? Waiting for the approval to unlock my bootloader then flash it via MI Flash / Fastboot ? Or Is there any otherway to proceed ?
Thanks in advance,
Hi i think you have a fake Rom as your Rom has 5 digits (7.2.8.0.0) for global stable you should have only 4 digits and 3 for dev rom. Check in subforum i think someone has the same fake Rom issue

Hi all.
My Mi5 arrived today with MIUI 7.3.2 Global Stable ROM installed. I'd like to unlock bootloader (Xiaomi granted me permissions already) but I am unable to on this ROM.
I need to flash China ROM but "adb reboot edl" just boots me back into ROM.
Am I right in thinking EDL is blocked on 7.3 and newer? How else can I unlock bootloader ?
To rub salt in the wound, opening contact or dialer crashes the app.
Cheers.
After some more fettling I have managed to solve this. I unlocked my bootloader with the 7.3.2 Global ROM.
I factory reset the phone and rebooted. During setup I skipped everything except the Mi account.
Once at the desktop, I rebooted into bootloader and fired up the Mi Unlock tool and this time it worked.
From there I flashed TWRP and Xiaomi.EU ROM.
How did you unlock it on global stable ROM?

My mi 5 pro is on its way. Thanks for the info as I want to run the same ROM and twrp.
Attention!
I had lots of trouble unlocking my bootloader, tried everything, but nothing seemed to work. Finally i managed to get i working.
To unlock bootloader on Global Stable ROM do the following:
Download Latest Global Development ROM (not stable rom). I used the one from here http://en.miui.com/download-299.html
Put the ZIP on the downloaded_rom folder on the sdcard. If folder is missing, create it.
Use the updater app on the phone to flash the zip you downloaded.
Be PATIENT, flashing takes TIME! Once it's done you can boot into fastboot and proceed with unlock tool as usual
The eu rom is awesome!!!!
Thank you!

Yes! This worked for me too. Soooo much easier than trying to flash China dev roms with the various methods that don't work... Thanks a ton.
Hello!
I bought Xiaomi mi 8 China version with Unlocked bootloader and installed global rom. I have install Xiaomi eu - i go to fastboot and flash twrp - works. I download ZIP with Xiaomi eu and install from phone storage on twrp - works. I comeback to global with miflash. I download global rom for fastboot from miui website. I flashed - compleed without errors, but phone its restsrting to recovery - twrp is deleted, in recovery i see mi recovery. On bottom i have Red message "This miui version cannot work on This device". Now, when i flashing with miflash i see error "erase boot error". Can fix it?

Hello! Xiaomi is really against people flashing global on chinese phones - that's why this happened.
Flash twrp to recovery via adb (search up on youtube its easy)
and flash a custom rom - they're better than miui anyway
Also if you use miflash tool in the future DO NOT click lock bootloader because it might brick your device which is a headache.

No you can't if your bootloader is locked.
I think you should talk to xiaomi about this issue directly and ask them whats the best thing to do.
The thing I can think of is to try and flash a chinese rom and get it to work - after that you can apply for unlocking your bootloader again
with the mi unlock tool (you'd have to wait 15 days though - xiaomi has ****ty policy on unlocking BL.
I install china rom, but its not work - miflash: erase boot error. On MI PCSuite China version app downloads global rom files, china files its not works, bad veryfication.
there are already some threads with some possible solutions, but if on the first run when you used the miflash tool and DID NOT UNCLICK lock bootloader than it looks like you fkkd up.
What is fkkd? In mi flash i checked clear and loock and did not work. Erase boot error.

Hello friends ,
I need your help because I'm already lost , openning many threads , and I dont know what to do.
I have mi11 Pro with eu rom+ TWRP bootloader. the boot loader is unloacked.
I dont know what I did, but I played with the settings of the phone and the TWRP and currently the phone is running with the eu rom , but I can not install a new rom because the TWRP does not recognize the zip file of the rom .
i tried to fix the problem in the twrp , but failed .
All I want at the moment is to go back to the original Chinese stock rom of the device as on the day I took it out of the box along with the fastboot recovery, so that I ll be able later to install any rom .
Is this process possible without causing a brick to the device?
Is there a link to the original Chinese stock rom with its fastboot recovery and how to install it without using TWRP?
thnx a lot
Just download fastboot rom for Mi 11 pro (google it), and flash in fastboot mode using miflash
Nothing brick, u can relock bootloader if u want there
I have the model M1902F1A that had the MIUI V12.0.2 Global ROM and tried to upgrade to V12.5 Global.
Problem is, while the flashing was successful, I learned that my device was not compatible with the MIUI version that I flashed so I can't boot the device. But I didn't notice the "clean all and lock" was activated when I was flashing. Now I can't flash a new ROM because my device is locked, and can't unlock my device because I can't boot to allow in the Mi Account Settings.
I can still access Mi Recovery and Fastboot, but after 6 hours of searching I just couldn't find a solution that worked for me. Does anyone have any ideas?
