Flashing Global Rom from Russian Global Rom

I just received my phone today and it came with unlocked bootloader and Russian global rom V9.5.14.0.OEARUFA.
Question is, can I download the updater ZIP file of Global Rom V9.5.13.0.OEAMIFA and use the updater app to flash instead of using Fastbook/Miflash Tools. Is this a safe way? Will it work? Thanks in advance!
Note : It is China Mi8 device.

I also wait for solution... Buy online and got russian rom and unlocked bootloader... What suitable twrp version for this rom because i scare bootloop will happen when install the unsuitable version... And does anyone here already try the miui pro rom from miuipro website.. does it good? Any feedback is appreciated..

The latest recovery-TWRP-3.2.3-0806 will do the trick.

Flashing with twrp is probably the safest way as mi flash you can accidentally re-lock your bootloader.
Since the OP phone is china mi8. It's compatible with all the rom in this forum (EU, global, etc) with unlock bootloader of course.

I do not wish to change my recovery to twrp. So it's the only way is to use miflash tools? No direct zip flash global from from updater app from phone ?

To my knowledge you can't change channel with updater app. With channel I mean Global stable, Global developer, Chinese stable, Chinese developer etc etc.

So global and global Russia can be used with updater app ? Is that correct?
But if can't, it will only show error and nothing will happen to y device right?

Magisk is probably tricking the firmware to see the bootloader is locked. For purposes of online banking and stuff? I believe bootloader is still actually unlocked.

Flash OFFICIAL Xiaomi fastboot rom via Miflash (take care, don't relock the bootloader!!!!) and reinstall TWRP 1102 or 1227 if you take the latest DEV version and not the STABLE.
TWRP 1102 or 1217 for Stable rom
twrp 1227 for latest DEV weekly rom 9.2.15

You are on OFFICIAL XIAOMI rom, that's was needed to refresh your phone.
This rom is full chinese without ANY GOOGLE application.
two options:
you stay with it and install GOOGLE PLAY on it or FLASH a custom modified EU rom with all the western stuff like Google and translations.
You need a modified recovery (TWRP) to flash a custom rom.
Your decision!

Do you know if it exist an ROM europeen (french) on miui10 ? With the Google service or possibility to install the gapps

Read well the first and second post and you'll be on the right track.

That's only what is well done with french language and under MIUI 10 Android 9.0

Thanks, but doesn't exist on fastboot version ? Because I have try to unlock my bootloader and I need to wait 360 hours but i doesn't this time, do you have a link like the first you have send to me but for an fastboot version and europeen, whatever the miui version. Thanks

No way and no possibility to flash custom rom out of TWRP usage.
That's the problem you are facing to wait in order to unlock the bootloader.
You must do it or stay with chinese ROM. This was like that when you bought this 100% chinese phone. And for me the same, so I waited 360 H and unlocked the bootloader for having TWRP available...
You have time to learn on how to do it.

As said before, this is a Chinese phone not sold "normally" out of CHINA.
It comes with CHINESE STABLE rom and no GLOBAL rom version ('for international sale with GOOGLE applications and all languages) is available and never will be!..
Sorry.
Anyway this phone is the best size/weight/features/price/performance/design RATIO in all XIAOMI phone range.
Tha's why I bought it to replace my MI5.

Question Need help to set back stock ROM

Hello,
I have bought a Mi 11 yesterday version M2011K2G,
I found out that the bootloader was unlocked on it, but when I check it has a global ROM installed already on it,
the thing is that it's not making any update, so I guess it's not an original ROM ?
I want to put back the original ROM and lock the bootloader back in order to have updates,
can you please help me on how I can do this without breaking the phone ?
or I'm I not getting the updates just because the bootloader is unlocked and if I lock it I will get them back ? I'm just scared if I lock it back the phone will break,
or you think I should install back the ROM and lock it back to get everything better ?
Thanks !

What version of ROM do you have?

here it is attached,
when I check updates it says no update available

Normally an unlocked bootloader has no affort to the update. How did you get notice about that? If your bl is really unlocked I would stay with that.
Are you maybe on latest version? Can you take a screen shot of settings - my device - All secs

I know it's unlocked cause I see the unlocked "padlock" when I restart the phone, other than this I don't have any idea of what modification could have been done to it since I'm used to use my phone the way they come with, thats why I want to get it back to stock ROM or get the updates to make sure it's all good

Here is the latest Rom for eea.
It's interesting that rkbeusf is nowhere to find.
Well unzip the fastboot file put the fastboot files from miui into it and try the installation without locking

if I use the Mi Flash and I don't lock it after flashing it, I won't get the upcoming updates will I ?
I mean, is there any way to lock it back ?
I kind of want to make the phone as it went out from factory

I never used mi flash, sorry.
My first step on new phones are always to unlock the bootloader so I can flash root and restore the apps with titanium.
And I got always updates through Ota.
I switched to xiaomi.eu rom, because it was faster with miui 12.5

thanks man, I will try install this ROM you gave me, I have noticed that when I make "download latest packages" it directly says "impossible to download..."
I wonder why it's doing this

Sorry if I misunderstood you, but you will have to scroll down until you see fastboot then a bit more to 'full rom' and click on the blue button
Edit:
Tested it right now and it works fine for me (download started)
Edit 2:
Seems to work with MI flash tool too:
Found on the mitool side:
Step 1: Download the correct Fastboot ROM on the Windows PC by double-checking the compatibility. Then extract and get the workable extensions on the PC (use the Rom above)
Step 2: installation bla bla
Step 3: too
Step 4: too
Step 5: Then attach the ROM file
Step 6: Switch Xiaomi device into the Fastboot mode. So turn off the device and simply take a long press and hold the keys of Volume Down and Power keys
Step 7: Then connect the device to the PC with a proper USB cable which is in the Fastboot mode
Step 8: Now you can enter the tool interface and check whether the device is connected
Step 9: Then select the most suitable flashing option from all three “Flash all”, “Flash all except storage” and “Flash all except data and storage”
Step 10: Hit flash from the top of the window and wait for several minutes
Step 11: Once the process is done you can reboot and finalize the process successfully.

thanks bro it worked, it now checks the updates and make them when they're available, my wife won't ask the divorce finally haha
one last question and I leave you,
my phone is a 12gb 256 (chinese) if I install that same ROM I installed, will I get autoupdates on it or that version can only update on it's chinese ROM ? any idea ?

For my understanding it will work too. The 12 GB ram is EU is not available but it's only additional ram and does not have an other rom.
... So if you can install and use your phone with that rom you will have no issues with updates

Be careful, don't lock bootloader with a global or EEA ROM on CN hardware, you will brick your phone.
Take care when using Miflash with CN flashed to global. Now you are on production software, best to stay there unless you want to install custom ROMs. OTAs should work now. 12.5.1.0 is the latest for EEA.

Isn´t all Mi 11 CN = China hardware ? I think it is safe to relock bootloader if you are on original ROM. Do you mix hardware and rom with each other.

Question Mi 11 Ultra China rom to EUROM/Global queries

Hi guys! just a couple of questions. I have been reading some of the Q and A on mi 11 ultra in the forums and have some questions of my own for clearer info for me.
I will be unlocking my bootloader today so here's my questions.
1. If I'm flashing a eurom (flashable rom from xiaomi website), do i need to follow the guides in flashing a twrp? or just the usual mi flash tool and eurom for flashing?
2. If I'm flashing a global rom, (i watched in a video that for flashing global rom) do i still need to edit the .bat file and delete the 8 lines pertaining to rollback?
3. currently i have a 12.0.9 chinarom, i haven't updated it yet to 12.5.3 (there is an update available), because i will be unlocking my bootloader. Do i need to update it first before unlocking? or just proceed to unlocked?, then change the rom to my preferred one either eurom or global?
thank you.

1. so i do need to follow the steps in flashing euro with twrp?
3. i've read that chinarom should be updated to latest, before any flashing do i need to do that also? or just from 12.0.9, directly flash a 12.5.3 eurom in twrp?

i have flashed an updated eurom thur twrp. do i have to format after installation of rom?

Thanks for the reply. You leave the bootloader unlocked, or relocked it in EU version? Are you able to use bank and payment apps without security issues?
And, what is the main differences of the Chinese and EU system?
Thanks

The bootloader remains unlocked, you cannot lock it via dev options. However the ROM works as if it is locked by its design. All bank apps work, may be you might need to delete the empty twrp folder but most don't require it.
It is based on Chinese stock but with so much added. So you get updates quicker on a much better ROM. I'm not going to list the vast number of differences but if you want to read them all, pop over to the Xiaomi EU forum's 11 Ultra's download page for all the info.

EU ROM ram management sucks, nothing I open and I leave without killing it in the background , then I return to it from recent, nothing work, always fresh open. Tried battery management, tried ram management, tried many things, same result

No, you only need to format your storage when you are going from one line to another, such as China to EEA or Xiaomi.eu, but all you need to do for an update is a dirty flash via TWRP or if you are running stock rom, all updates should be relatively seamless, requiring only a simple click to initiate the process and is handled within the OS.

hi currently running on eurom.
there is latest update on eurom when i checked for updates. is it ok if i installed the downloaded updates directly on phone?
or do i need to download it in browser on my pc, then transfer it to phones drive and install the updates thru twrp?

You can do it either way. Personally, I find it quicker on my PC to download the rom and then to copy it to my internal storage, but you can download via OTA if you want as well.

so i downloaded it ony my mi11u, faster download time.
when i click the "check md5 & install" on "updater"
*best to remove the lock's first, else a chinese welcome note on twrp will prompt to input the password, need to change the language first.
it restarts and bootups on twrp. click install and need to search the downloaded "usually in internal storage, with other files and folders, on the bottom since it's a zip file"
install and reboot "system reboot"
done.

Question twrp, magisk, boot.img on miui 13.0.5.0 SKAEUXM???

Hi
Kind of in a pickle here, I have upgraded to the EU version of the rom and then updated to the above 13.0.5.0 SKAEUXM. Now the issue I am facing is no matter what version of twrp I install or boot into it doesn't show me the internal storage and neither can I copy anything there for some reason. ( That's TWRP out of the question trying to flash magisk or trying to extract the phones boot.img? )
Neither can i get hold of miui 13.0.5.0 SKAEUXM zip file where i can extract it and utilise the boot.img either as its no where to be found aka the full rom?
How do I root with magisk on my mi 11 ultra miui 13.0.5.0 SKAEUXM. Any suggestions or links would be greatly appreciated.
Regards

You can only root via adb fastboot using the fastboot version of your rom to patch the original boot.ini. AFAIK there are no fastboot versions of these roms quite yet

okay i managed to find a twrp and use the following command
fastboot flash boot_a twrp.img
that worked fine and i was able to see the storage. flashed magisk canary which then sent the phone into twrp loop.
restarting again installing the eu 12xxx rom which i will update to 13.0.5.0 SKAEUXM and then re do the procedure with normal magisk and see how that fairs. when i do normal fastboot flash recovery twrp.img i get a failed message.
will update

Use unsupported version of twrp with miui 13 (A12) can brick your phone, remember that
Still no working twrp for miui 13 (A12)

everything's been fine I been testing various roms and trying to get boot.img from miui 13 eu rom but while being careful on one occasion i forgot to check clean all and instead it was sat on clean all and lock and it locked and now i have fast boot only no recovery and boot loader is locked, I don't get why they would design this software to auto select clean all and lock rather than nothing so you get to select before you can even proceed unless it was malicious and done on purpose?? I done the unlock thing last night and have to wait 134 hours.
pay for a phone and still be at the mercy of the manufacturer, no, fk that. this phones getting flashed back and sent right back up the Chinese where the sun don't shine.
anyways what option do i have apart from now being at the mercy of another foreigner who just wants you to pay him before he even wants to talk to you or answer any questions or ask any about your issue.
all i got was pay no refund pay no refund from one dude in india no questions no nothing. i asked questions and he couldn't even answer one of them apart from with a maybe and a ? (Wont take any names)
so this is where I'm at fastboot with locked bootloader, no recovery or data. cant twrp on locked device cant set to edl mode via fastboot nothing.
any attempt has rendered cant do anything on locked bootloader. I can see the phone on mi flash and try to flash it but keep getting the locked error.
I have tried a global rom a eu rom a chinese rom hell even a engineering rom all the above give cant erase on locked stae error while the engineering one gives Antirollback error, and yes i have deleted the section of anti rollback check still get some other error?
Over to you guys.

EU isn't rom variant. They call that EU because full name is xiaomi.EU
Remember official rom branch: global, global EEA, global IN, china
Xiaomi.eu is just china miui with some mods for working with global user
