MIUI 10 China Stable ROM to Developer ROM - Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers

I have recently purchased my first Xiaomi device (Mi 8) and so far I am impressed. I currently have a locked bootloader but have only got 15 days or so left until it is unlocked. In the mean time I was interested in upgrading my current ROM (China Stable ver 10.0.9.0) to China Developer ROM (ver 8.11.15). From what i have read I was under the impression that changing between a stable and developer/beta rom of the same region (EU, Global or China) was allowed.
I have tried doing it by the local update method which didn't work and then via XiaoMiTool to which I got to the very end of the process and was left with the following screenshot (image below) which states that I need to unlock the bootloader in order to update to China Developer ROM, is this correct? Does anyone know of any way I can install the latest China Developer Rom via another method without unlocking bootloader? Could I sideload it using XiaomiADB?
Any help would be appreciated.

You can update from china stable to china dev. Just download the latest china dev and select it from the phone`s updater. You don`t need unlocked botloader for this. I did it on my mi5 and mi8, but this will format your phone.

Thanks for the reply. I found out that it had to be the latest China Dev Oreo rom which I need to flash via update. I was then able to update to latest Pie.

Hey, I'm having the same issue. Can you point to where you downloaded the latest Oreo Dev ROM? Can't seem to find it.

Post a changelog (screanshot) if a more detailed one appears after you install.
Just finished the update.
Same line as I posted above in the "what's new" section
Here's screenshot of updated phone info
Just updated to this last night. No issues so far
You should really post that in news and discussion forum, not here. This sub forum is for ROM, kernel development, so this post got nothing to do whit it.
Puff... They didn't touched the kernel side from 8.1.2 same version, same signature. Will probably skip this one...
download link plz.

If you're still on miui 7 and you checked for update and it says you're up to date, there's a chance that your rom is currently running a fake global ROM. I had that experience with my Mi 5 before.
Check here http://en.miui.com/download-302.html , global ROM now for hydrogen is 8.1.4.0.

How to Switch Stable to Beta or Beta to Stable without Unlocking Bootloader​✒ Notes: Here haven't any risk but don't reboot your when MIUI rom is installing. You can only switch Global to Global or China to China (Ex: Global Stable to Global Beta). Only download latest public update rom from Xiaomi site. Sometimes rom verification can be failed then try again. Backup your all personal data because your all personal data will be erased.
✒ Requirements:
• Latest Public Stable or Beta rom
• Net connection
• 30% charge
✒ Download the latest Stable or Beta rom from Mi Community official site.

Is your bootloader unloacked? If you have unlocked your bootloader, you can flash the EEA rom or Global rom or flash TWRP and install a Xiaomi.eu rom. All of those allow for regional changes in setup.
I'd advise you to just get the Xiaomi.EU Rom. Just pick the Stable one IMO

Is there no way to resolve it without flashing the ROM? I am little apprehensive about flashing the ROM as I have not done the before
Have you tried more locale 2 app from play store? If not, you give it a try

It's the version of GMS that gets installed by some shops before shipping. It doesn't have location tracing and a few others and really is not much use if you are outside China. As others have said, get your bootloader unlocked, wait the 168 hours and change over to the EU ROM. Pop over to the EU forum for all the pro's and downloads but everyone here will help if they can and most users post on both forums. https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/21-7-21-22.62299/

Glad you have found a way around your country settings. You may well find other shortcomings in the mini GMS too. Only resolution is to flash a full GMS included ROM. But as long as your needs are catered for, it's all good.

ASUS ROG Phone II troubles

Hello! I have a problem with ROG PHONE 2, I bought it from China with a global version, but I think it was flashed there by the Chinese to the global version and I can't update it to the latest global version. Currently the version is PKQ1.190414.001.WW_Phone-16.0640.1908.12! What would you advise me? I also have the following problem when unlocking the pixelated screen and I have to turn it on and unlock from the button 4-5 times to fix it. https://photos.app.goo.gl/m6deeo8xnQsFNJwF6

do you mean the automatic updates in the system? you can manually update your phone by downloading the latest firmware (Make sure to select WW version if your phone is global) in the official site and saving it in the root folder (Just inside the internal storage) and it will be detected by your phone, if not just restart your phone (you can see in the notification that the phone detects a new update)
I've already tried it gives an error! Maybe I should go through another lower version first?

Question Redmi Note 12 Pro Plus 5G does not work with NFC if it is running MIUI Global.

I updated my smartphone to MIUI Global just to have access to NFC technology, the android detects the feature but when registering the card the google wallet returns a message that the phone does not meet the security requirements.

Is the bootloader unlocked?
Smartphone came with the original china rom with the bootloader unlocked, I already updated to MIUI INDIA, but as we know it does not support NFC, as soon as the global MIUI came out I opted for the update in the hope of NFC working, it appears however when registering the card it returns that error.
Note: Smartphone does not have ROOT access.
The bootloader is unlocked, that's why.
Is it just blocking the bootloader then ?
But if I block the bootloader, will I have to stay in the device's original ROM, which is China?
Indeed, you cannot lock the bootloader on a rom other than CN.
The solution,rooter+Magisk+zygisk+safetynet module.
Is Bootloader the same thing as Root?
Technically not, but for your problem, the phone is considered not to have all the required security.
Root+Magisk+zygisk+safetynet module are undetectable, moreover all rom users other than CN, use this method to have a certified device.
I have the eea. If i unlock the bootloader and install the global i wont have nfc?

If you have a Global version phone (model 22101316G) you can install any stock rom (except CN) and lock the bootloader.
EDIT:
All models( 22101316G, 22101316I, 22101316C) of this phone support NFC, but with an unlocked bootloader, the addition of payment cards is refused for security reasons.
