Official global rom is available for Xiaomi mi mix 2, even if it's not listed on the miui website yet.
This is the download link: http://bigota.d.miui.com/7.9.21/miui_MIMIX2Global_7.9.21_7f94ca393f_7.1.zip
This is the recovery version, fastboot version is not out yet, so there are only two ways to install it:
Method 1 (works on both locked and unlocked bootloaders):
- Download the rom on your pc
- Download and install my tool on your pc: www.xiaomitool.com/latest (read more about it here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5/how-to/tool-xiaomitool-xiaomi-rom-changing-easy-t3627081 )
- Plug your device to your pc, launch the tool and use it until you reach the rom selection view
- Select "show advanced options", then "Official Miui rom (.zip)" and then select the file of the rom you have downloaded before
- The tool will install it automatically
Method 2 (works only on unlocked bootloaders):
- Download the rom and supersu zip on your device
- Install twrp to your device
- Install the rom file through twrp
- Patch the rom by flashing supersu
PLEASE NOTICE: if you use this method dont update your device because this will soft brick it. You need to flash manually from twrp the rom and supersu if you want to do that. This method is for those who want to try the rom, not to keep for a long term. If you want to keep the rom, use method 1 or wait for fastboot rom.
FAQs:
Q: This link is official and how did you get it?
A: It's official (just look at the download url) and I have it by emulating an ota update call
Q: Have you tried installing it on your device?
A: I have not mi mix 2 so no
Q: This may brick my device?
A: It may brick it, I have not tried yet. This is to tell you to do on your own risk, I'm not responsible
Q: Why I have to flash SuperSU?
A: Official rom are not compatible with twrp natively, your device will not boot if you don't flash supersu.
Q: What is the difference with your tool?
A: My tool uses stock recovery to flash official roms, so there is no need to unlock bootloader to install twrp, neither to flash supersu
Q: This method(s) doesn't work!
A: Ok, sorry to hear that, leave your feedback. This methods are not tested yet with mi mix 2, so there is the chance they might not work. Just leave both positive and negative feedback about it.

Would you care to share the ota update call for those of us too lazy to use wireshark?
Should i continue?
i tried the tool with a locked bootloader but it says i cant flash it with a locked bootloader.
I have unlocked my bootloader.

Works for you ? And which option did you choose .. And did you do anything before ?
Didn't work for me, see my previous post
Hi vic20nl,
So you continued but had no luck ?
Or did you abandoned the flashing ?
If you decided not to proceed, I might say that installing a custom recovery is an easy thing.
And I cannot recommend too much to install such a custom ROM as it will allow a lot of things, especially to back-up before installing a new ROM or to install a custom ROM like Mokee or EPIC ROM.
Regards.
Heading has come up on the MIUI ROM download page for the Mi MIX 2 Global, so it should not be long for an official ROM

Yeah just noticed that. Shame it's still miui 8 not miui 9.
Maybe soon for miui 9 global.
Did somebody manage to flash the developer ROM (that is what is what mentioned in first post) as that is suppose to be MIUI 9?

Yes, I did. You need to use fastboot.
Hello Guys!
First at all, thank you @franztesca for your great work on the flashing tool and bring us early the Global Dev Rom for Mi MIX 2.
I would like to ask and/or bring in this discussion here an other aspect to flash the Global Dev.
First an unlocked bootloader is requiered. I used this method at another Xiaomi, the Xiaomi Mi 5.
I am actually on the Xiaomi.eu Rom and i would like to change to the Global Dev. My bootloader is open. I flashed the Xiaomi.eu Rom with TWRP, but i dont install TWRP, i just boot into TWRP by using the commend : "fastboot boot twrp.img", just booted not flashed! After the boot i flashed the Rom via ADB Sideload an performe a Data Rest befor.
In this case i am able to keep the original Recovery, but i could also have an Custom Rom.
Now i want to change my Rom again, to your brought Global DEV.
Iam loking and asking me, how could i flash it the easyest Way, without loosing any Data and of course without any Bootloops and with regular Updates for the future.
So i think you musst Add a Variant Number 3, please correct my if iam wrong, but for me it is the easyest way with an unlocked Bootloader.
1. Download Rom and TWRP
2. Set Mi MIX 2 in Fastboot Mode
3. Boot via Fastboot iside TWRP (fastboot boot twrp.img"
4. Flash the Rom an reboot
Now you have Global Rom with offical Recovery for futher upadates!
Greetz
Thanks, I cannot do it via the updater app from Xiaomi by coying the zip file to the device and then choose the package in the updater?

You can't go from the China ROM to the Global ROM via the updater app. You'll have to use fastboot/Mi Flash.

So if I get it right:
- Unlock your bootloader trough a Xiaomi website and wait for an sms.
- Use fastboot to flash the global rom. (Do I need to wipe before using the Mi tool to flash?)

I didn't have to go through getting permission, my account already had it from previous Xiaomi devices. If you haven't yet, then yeah wait to get permission.
Mi Flash gives you the option to relock the bootloader upon flashing or not. There is also an option to keep data, but I would advise not doing that when switching to the Global ROM.
Also, after getting permission to unlock your bootloader, if you relock it again, you can always use the Mi Unlock tool to unlock it as much as you want since you already got permission to do so. When I had the Mi5, I can't even count how many times I unlocked/relocked the bootloader.

Once re-locked can you use banking apps etc?
Wrong recovery
When I try with method 1, he tells me I got the wrong recovery. Bootloader is open ..

i'm little bit confused about unlocking the bootloader on an mi5 device. I read somewhere that it's not needed if you use the updater app on the phone. i think this is only true for official rom's which came from en.miui.com it self?
can i use the updater app if i want to install the official en.miui.com 8 global rom without unlocking the bootloader?
if i want to install an xiaomi.eu rom, i will have to unlock the bootloader first?
does root on an official rom need an unlocked bootloader too?
there are more then one way to flash an rom on an mi5 device, updater app, fastboot and miflash tool, twrp(which is not preinstalled i mean?). but i read something about an edl mode, but cant find out what this does mean? is this maybe the fastboot and miflash tool mode?
many thanks!
best regards
adnan
Hello there,
what ROM are you running currently? Broadly speaking, you have 2 tools to change the ROM on Your device: the updater app and Fastboot (miflash uses fastboot too, and twrp requires fastboot to be installed). The updater app allows you only to upgrade your current ROM to the newest version. Fastboot (and the related tools) allow you to change ROM completely (e.g. switching from China Stable to China Dev or from China Stable to Global Stable or from China Stable to miui.eu Stable), and will also allow you to root your device through TWRP. To use fastboot, however, you will need to unlock Your bootloader.
Regarding EDL mode, it is the Miui stock recovery mode, which can be used together with the Xiaomi desktop application to flash new ROMs. It is not a widely used method, because the desktop app is quite buggy.
hello
many thanks for your replay.. i'm currently on miui 8, the global alpha version, so i already do an flash.. your answer is toop, again thanks for that!! but there are some new questions, edl is the miui stock recovery mode, does this mean the recovery as i know it already in a form from recovery.img? if i also want root i will have to flash twrp, this would then mean that the miui stock recovery (edl) wouldn't work anymore? so if i want to go back to an official global rom, do i need to flash the stock miui recovery first? the way to do that would be through fastboot? where can i get the stock miui recovery?
have an nice day!
So you bought a shiny new Chinese model, and want to convert to Global or EU version?
I had bought the Chinese version also, and couldn't find a solid method for converting to the Global or EU ROMs. I was worried i would brick my device like so many others! After finding bits and pieces in lots and lots of xda threads, MIUI forums, and finding some mis-information, i decided to put a working method all in one place!
**WARNING***
I am NOT responsible for anything that goes wrong or you have issues with the information i have provided, it worked for me and proceed at your own risk!
FIRST
Unlock your bootloader locked Chinese version phone! (It's a LONG wait)
see official unlock page here-->http://en.miui.com/thread-246705-1-1.html
After Bootloader Unlock
1.) Download TWRP from the page here-->https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-8/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-3-0-mi-8-t3837745
-- RENAME YOUR DOWNLOADED RECOVERY FILE TO "recovery.img"
2.) Download the DM Verity Disabler here-->https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=3700668719832238534
3.) Download the Region Fix here-->https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=1322778262904000068
4.) Download a Global ROM / EU ROM of your choice!
Installing the TWRP Recovery:
Make sure you have a working copy of FASTBOOT on your computer compatible with Mi8 (I used the one in the directory from the Bootloader UNLOCK program)
1.) Copy all of your downloaded files to the Bootloader Unlocker main directory (or a directory with the Fastboot.exe file)
2.) Open a DOS shell prompt on your computer and change the directory to the Bootloader Unlock directory (or Fastboot.exe directory)
3.) Put your phone in to Fastboot Mode (Turn on phone and hold the Volume Down while also holding Power Button)
4.) Connect your phone via USB cable to your computer
5.) In your DOS shell prompt enter this between the quotes "fastboot.exe boot recovery.img"
6.) After your phone boots up with the TWRP, copy the recovery.img file to the main directory of your SDCard
(Your recovery should allow you to open your phones internal storage on your computer)
7.) Install from the TWRP recovery menu (choose IMG file on bottom right, and select the recovery.img from your storage, and choose the Recovery partition to flash to)
8.) After successful TWRP flashing to your recovery partition, Reboot to RECOVERY
Preparing & Flashing Your Downloaded ROM:
1.) Format your data (must be done from the wipe directory where you have to type the word "yes")
2.) after the format, once again reboot to your RECOVERY
3.) Copy your chosen ROM zip file, recovery.img file, Region Fix file, and DM Verity disabler file to your internal phone storage
4.) Install your chosen ROM (flash through TWRP)
5.) Flash your recovery.img file again! (choose IMG file on bottom right of screen, and select the recovery.img from your storage, and choose the Recovery partition to flash to)
6.) Flash the Region Fix file
** Optional of flashing Magisk (v17.1) now if you want **
7.) Flash the DM Verity disabler file
8.) Format DATA again (this removes all of your file from internal storage, so copy them back if you want after the format is done)
9.) Reboot to SYSTEM and Enjoy!
Some steps may be redundant or not needed, however -i spent countless hours in bootloops, reflashes, testing. This method works, and is what i follow every new ROM i install. I am now on the latest Miui10.8.9.6 Global.
Additional Notes:
DON'T downgrade versions of ROMs (ex, miui10 to 9, or miui9 to 8) Anti-Rollback isn't enabled to brick yet (it's only "1")
If you don't flash the Region fix on a Chinese phone, it will constantly reboot, during initial rom setup or won't even make it that far (wish i knew this before, it would have saved me many hours in bootloops)
If you want to STAY on Chinese rom versions with the bootloader locked, you CAN flash miui Chinese developer edition (ex miui10.8.30) using the internal software updater without issues (i did this while waiting for unlocking delay).

Great job ! A good idea for us
Thanks a lot.
I finally could install miui.eu.
Unfortunately i flash magisk but it doesn't root my phone.
Two questions:
First do i just have to flash magisk and dm verity after?
Then for flash another rom do i have to do all the steps again?

Yes, you have to flash dm verity after magisk. After you are booted, if magisk is installed did you try to update magisk from the app? It worked on global ROM for me.
I would forward all steps again, but up to you. If you report back a shorter method that works j can modify instructions.
I am also working on a fix for the Chinese region that keeps coming back with reboot. I know what needs done, and have fixed mine, i just need to modify the region fix zip.

Thanks for this as it really saves time reading bits of information. I took time to change the ROM as I didn't want to brick my phone. Some knowledgeable people on here will even be annoyed if you ask for clarifications and tell you to read! I basically followed most of the steps mentioned.

Unfortunately, Xiaomi made a stupid rule, which is that you can't lock global roms with chinese phones. Starting with Mi 8.
Is this goin to work for phones already unlocked by seller account? Is it possible to use my account after this procedure?
@HugoYe
I thought it is solution for lock after flash CN -> Global.
@johnny1836
What do you exactly mean by fixing the problem. I'm still trying to find a solution for this. Keeping the BL open is really bothering me, as I am using the Official Global rom.

no, that is a 9.0 beta, i wouldn't touch that one right now. I edited my post above with 8.8.31 ---still 8.1 based.
@Agimax So with your step I can't lock Chinese mi8 variant with global stable or dev rom ?
So finally there's MIUI 11 officially announced in China. XDA recently provided the links to download recovery ROM based on MIUI 11 for certain devices here- https://www.xda-developers.com/download-miui-11-beta-now-for-13-xiaomi-devices-changelog/amp/
These ZIPs are chinese beta builds and my question as a xiaomi.eu 's ROM user is-
HOW CAN I FLASH A CHINESE BETA ROM USING TWRP WHILE CURRENTLY I'M USING XIAOMI.EU ROM?
Thanks in advance ;p
u don't. I tried them. they have anti-rollback feature. u will be stuck in them. u won't be able to flash twrp. fastboot will reject everything saying anti rollback hszghsjcklsj........ like something. I tried. my phone got bricked. but somehow fastboot was on and I unlocked bootloader then in edl mode flashed stock ROM. I must say that I was not able to access even recovery.
in short, the way to go back to using custom ROMs/recoveries are destructive and could brick ur device and u may not be able to recover it anytime soon.
So, I risked my phone and tried (that was the only option I had). Here's how to flash Chinese beta (or official MIUI) when your Xiaomi device is running unofficial MIUI like xiaomi.eu's MIUI or even a custom ROM-
Again HOW TO FLASH OFFICIAL MIUI CHINESE/GLOBAL ON A XIAOMI DEVICE THAT IS CURRENTLY ON A CUSTOM ROM
DISCLAIMER: THE BELOW MENTIONED METHOD IS WHAT WORKED IN MY CASE, I thought to help if someone needs help in this case because I didn't get any
Step 1. Make a backup of your data and wipe every partition (except Internal storage, USB OTG & SD card)
Step 2. Since MIUI has anti-rollback, you've gotta flash the recovery ROM with a lazyflasher like tool. (Lazyflasher didn't work at all in my case. So use Dm-verity disabler, Force encryption by @Zackptg5).
Note: You don't need this tool while flashing xiaomi.eu ROM or custom ROM. YOU DON'T!
Step 3. As mentioned above flash both zips and reboot to system.
Want to confirm before proceeding, I find this instruction.

Caveat: I bricked my device like many others after unlocking the bootloader and flashing xiaomi.eu ROM. I had to have a authorized EDL account holder flash a factory ROM (in my case I had a China variant flashed with the Global ROM), after which I flashed xiaomi.eu latest stable ROM and then rooted it.

I flashed it separately on the second attempt for 12.5.3. The first time I tried flashing the patched boot.img I was greeted with an error.
Hi! I have the latest xiaomi eu weekly installed (21.6.23) as well as unofficial twrp.
I would like to root the phone with magisk, but I don't understand a few things.
Magisk manager require patching the boot.img file from the zip firmware.
I can not just simply install magisk zip file in twrp to root mi11 ultra?
If not, I understand that I have to patch the boot.img- but do I have to do it every time I want to install update of the latest xiaomi.eu firmware?
The second question is about data.
Am I loosing the data by rooting the device by this method?
EDIT:
Ok, I managed. So those are the steps that I did:
I unpacked the boot.img from the xiaomi.eu firmware in my phone. Then I patched the file, and copy this file to the adb installation folder of my pc.
Later it's easy- usb debugging needs to be active in developer options, then connect your phone by the cable to your pc, accept usb debugging in your phone, start CMD in the adb folder in your pc and write the command:
fastboot flash boot_ab nameofthefilewhatmagiskgenerated.img
then
fastboot reboot
And done, root works. Data are untouched.
I did it easier, boot into twrp and flash magisk.zip done
Also I'm on official EEA firmware, with original stock recovery, so doesn't matter what rom you use. On xiaomi EU you don't even need adb because you already have twrp injected
Is there anything to worry about when you update the phone while having root access?
Is the following order right?
1) update Rom over twrp and delete dalvik&cache
2)flash magisk.zip again
3)boot into system
Right ?
I have the latest EU Rom 12.5.7...
Just take this bat with decrypted Star twrp 3.5.1
unzip and klick Install-Star.bat
fastboot boot star.img are the commands in there

I'm planning to go from stock 13.0.2 A12 to Xiaomi EU 13.0.10 A11. Based on what I read, this is what I have to do:
- Unlock bootloader (which will factory reset the phone).
- Start fastboot mode.
- Connect to PC.
- Download the ROM (Recovery for RN11, since it's downgrade I'll have to factory reset but it'll already be done during bootloader unlock)
- Run first_time_installation.bat (or something like that).
Are these steps correct? This will be the first time I flash a ROM and I really don't want to mess it up. Thanks in advance!
The first step is correct, you must unlock the booloader. However, you can't install Xiaomi.eu ROM on fastboot mode, that's only for stock ROMs. If you try to do that using a custom ROM, it could brick your phone. For Xiaomi.eu (or any other custom ROM) you need to install first a custom recovery like TWRP: first downlaod the custom recovery file, then copy it into the storage and then install it. You can do the last 2 things with CMD commands . Then copy the custom ROM file like any other file into the phone's storage, restart the phone on recovery mode and install the ROM from the TWRP interface. I did it like a month ago, I don't remember all the details though. Just look for a tutorial, it's not that hard.
Good luck.

Haha thanks for your reply! This came a bit late, it has been exactly a month since I flashed but I hope this could help someone else. Spes/spesn is listed as recovery on the list but the Android 11 versions only come in Fastboot. When I unlocked bootloader, I had already prepared Pixel Experience and Xiaomi.eu ROM. PE's recovery gave me bootloop so I used the next thing available and flashed Xiaomi.eu .bat file.
I was a bit worried when it was stuck on the same screen for 15 minutes but then it loaded with no problem. Not really sure if I did the right thing or I was just lucky
