Because you don't have to... The updates are not being rolled out at the same time in every region (by that I mean, Eastern/Central and Western Europe has both C432 and in Central Europe, I have noticed that we get the updates with a noticeable delay). Plus, sometimes you need the firmware because you need to unbrick, reflash, or extract something from the ROM image, this thread serves for these purposes too.

My model is VNS-L21C185B130, double sim, can i download an d update to this version

OTA rollout seems to be very slow-paced, here in Italy (region C432) people is still stuck to B131 and IIRC B151 came out more than 15 days ago.
I'm quite happy someone is publishing firmware updates her on xda

Considering you only want to update, and you have a correct firmware version, extract the UPDATE.APP file to a folder called "dload" (without quotation marks) that you create in your internal storage. After that, reboot your phone.

Just installed with TWRP and all fine!
Seems to be faster!

What s new?:d

Whenever you flash a new update, you lose root and recovery. The bootloader remains unlocked, so just flash twrp again and root again.

I just updated my phone from VNS-L21C432B130 to VNS-L21C432B151 and I dont know am I wrong, but it seems that the battery discharges faster on VNS-L21C432B151 then on VNS-L21C432B130

B151 is Sing Sim?

Hi guys, feedback from the update?
Changelog and battery Life?

ROMs Compatible with Pokemon Go

Dear All,
I realise this isn't really a priority issue but I was wondering which of the ROMs currently available are compatible with Pokemon Go.
I personally can confirm that the official ROMs available on en.miui.com are compatible, but I believe that may be because I didn't need to unlock the bootloader to install them
Which brings me to my follow up question: If I unlock the bootloader, can I then re-lock it? How would I go about doing that?
Thanks!

Hello,
I think it is possible to relock it, so I didn't try it but I saw in another forum (xiaomi official, you can find the link below) a way to relock the Mi5 and I hope it is the same with Mix. You just enter in fastboot mod and type this command on your computer through fastboot "fastboot oem lock" and everything will go one. I don't know what will be happen but I advice you to not lock your bootloader with another rom running that an official.
Thank you, I hope I helped you.

Thanks! Having read through that page, it seems the problem is to relock with a custom BOOTLOADER, not a custom ROM.
In any case, I would appreciate it if people who are using custom ROMs try Pokemon Go and let me know the results

Hi,
I think it will work If you rom isn't rooted. I didn't try yet with my mi mix (Im running epic rom),but with my other phone I can't play since the famous update against rooted devices (I have cyanogenmod rooted).

The game check for the locked bootloader, unlocked and it wont run ... doesn't like rooted devices - due to the rampant cheating that went on via having access to gps and other file data.

Unlock Bootloader

Hello, previously if we wanted to unlock bootloader we should first create a zuk account. I want to ask if now it's replaced by lenovo account at passport.lenovo.com
Also I want to ask if I can unlock bootloader with a shop-rom or I should first flash stock rom with qpst?

You don't have to create any account, just give your email address and they send you all the stuff.

I'm waiting for my Zuk z2 pro to arrive. If it will come with a fake shop rom can I unlock the bootloader immediately or I should first flash stock rom?

I saw something to relock any Xiaomi phone with a fasboot command but never tried, I let another user with more experience reply

You'd have to flash stock rom via miflash tool to re-lock the bootloader.

I'm pretty sure that you can't downgrade pal. There is a BTA8 lineage rom that just came out.
I too tried to downgrade, but you cant. Your flashing an older bootloader, which wont work.
If i can remember correctly, if you look at your firmware package the 5th number indicates the bootloader version. for example:
You said your device is on BTA8 which is G973FXXU4BTA8 ( NOTE THAT THE 4 INDICATED THE BOOTLOADER VERSION)
The reason for your error is that your probably flashing G973FXXU(3)ASII : Notice the 3, its an older bootloader. You cant go back, and you must simply find the rom that has G973FXXU(4)BTA8.
Hope this helps
