Sideload Official 9.0 Update?

Hey all,
I've got the Mi A2 global version but I'm using in the US and haven't gotten the 9.0 OTA update yet. Is there any way that I can officially sideload it or something like that?

Flash it through fastboot.

It really works! I tried 2 times and works. But I had to change my language to English (I'm from Brazil) to view all the apps mentioned in the video.

Root + Ota update

Hey I have p20 pro EU version 6/128
Today I got a new update about Google security.
I want every update run on my phone
But I rooted my device.
I wanted first to ask guys , I tried to update but was unsuccessful. I do not have twrp because of the method I used to root p20 pro didn't allow me having magisk and twrp recovery.
So now if I want to update have to do it manually ?
2 questions
1) which program do I use ?
2) where I can find the firmware Official WITHOUT BEEING CHANGED ANYTHING inside from someone third.
Thanks John

You need to flash the stock bootloader. If you are running Pie and Magisk, you have a modified bootloader. I don't know where to download the stock one. Could probably rip it from a stock Pie firmware.

Me to have twrp on my p20 pro and i cannot update my phone.. Have new update but when I try system update after download, its entering to recovery mode for install the firmware but it cannot coz working twrp and unsuccessful installation.
Me to look for stock recovery for clt-l29 pie

The apk from this post will allow you to download the latest firmware for your model from firmware finder and flash it without needing TWRP or having to flash stock recovery. You will have to re-root afterwards though

Download the current version you are using. Extract recovery_ramdisk.img and flash. Reboot and take OTA update. You will lose root, as I said you have a modified recovery and need stock to take OTA.
Edit - Once your done, patch the bootloader from Magisk and flash to get root again.

Have Anti-Rollback System In Mi A2?

Currently am on latest may update V10.0.9.0PDIMIFJ, i want to flash V10.0.2.0.PDIMIFJ but confusion about anti-rollback system. will i have any problem?

Bro, you need to delete de update.zip inside the flashing file. If you did this u are good to go without ARB4
*U need to erase this file update.zip on every att file

Mi 9 - This MIUI version can´t be installed on this device

Hi all,
i hope someone has an idea how to fix my phone.
The Story:
I bought the 12GB/256Gb Mi 9 Transparent Edition (just sold in China) - it was unlocked by the seller and flashed with official EEA Rom. I bound it to my Mi Account and installed TWRP and then formatted the Phone. I tried xiaomi.eu MIUI 11 rom, but was not happy. So i thought i get the official Global version and flashed it with miFlash Tool. Unfortunately (And i hate myself for it, as i flashed loads of Xioami Phones before), i forgot to change to Clean all - instead it was set to Clean All and Lock - So now the Bootloader is locked again.
And now i own a 600€ pile of junk.
I tried to Unlock again - but mi_unlock told me that "Current Account is not bound to this Device" - and i should go to the Developers Option to bind them. - Well, i would do so if i would not stuck in Recovery (This MIUI version can´t be installed on this device) or in Fastboot Mode.
Is there any chance (beside EDL method, which i do not have the courage to do) to somehow fix this?
I really appreciate all help!
Thanks

If you still have warranty where you bought, take it to them and they'll fix it for you. If not, your only hope left is tespoint EDL.

Did you try to flash latest Chinese Stable rom? Probably you have the message because you cannot flash the Global version as it was Chinese only.

Well yes, i tried, but MiPro Flasher is telling me ''you are allowed to flash the newest develop version published by miui forum from stable version only''
I loose my hope already
Thanks

So flash that, the latest China Beta then, take it from there.

So when you try to flash the Stable version it says something about the Developer version? strange! try the official tool maybe ( Miflash).

Thanks, i tried with official tool, but to flash via it, Bootloader has to be unlocked - and as written in my 1st post, i locked it by accident. I contacted the shop where i bought it, they said it could take up to 3 month (Back to China...) -
Cannot believe that there is no other way tough.

beside EDL- u can connect with Mi Flash Tool -- only can install China ROm i had sam prob with Mix 2s i did same and i tried many many times with mi flash tool finnaly its done

Did you try to push the rom using fastboot command? you can try this maybe:
https://in.c.mi.com/thread-334-1-1.html
But I still don't understand why, if you try to flash the Stable version it says "you are allowed to flash the newest develop version...".

Hi,

Does anyone have an step-by-step guide on how to do it?
THANKS

How to get back to stock rom like when i bought it

Hello all !
I've bought a MI9T pro on Rakuten 2 weeks ago, i unlocked the bootloader successfully, then i installed some mods like V4A etc, then i installed the 72hz mod that bricked my phone, after 2 hours, i
I managed to flash a older stock rom that i found on the web, but after this it was writed "Redmi" and not "Mi" on the bootup screen like it was before, then i installed LineageOS but i saw that there was many translation issues with french language so i installed MiUi 11 with TWRP but now the FP Sensor doesn't work.
My question is, is it possible to return to the latest version on MiUi that is available on MI9T Pro so i can do all the updates on the phone directly like when i bought it ? Can you tell me when i can find the rom ? And how can i get back "Mi" rather than "Redmi" on the bootup screen ?
I still want to get root, and bootloader unlocked, i just want to get an official stock rom like before.
Thanks guys for helping me, and excuse-me for my bad english, i from france

you need to download the correct fastboot ROM for your device and flash it with MiFlash. You will have either the Global or the EEA variant.
EEA ROM: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.3.4.0....KEUXM_20190923.0000.00_9.0_eea_65ad59b1cb.tgz
Global ROM: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.3.2.0....XM_20190911.0000.00_9.0_global_a11e2330ec.tgz
MiFlash: https://www.xiaomiflash.com/downloads/MiFlash20170425.zip

Do you know how can i know if i need to flash the global or the eea version?
After this, i will je able to do the miui updates normally like before? And it will be back a mi9t pro and not a k20 pro like now ? Because i had to flash something from india to flash the lineageOS.
Sorry for those questions, thanks again!

created new thread, since its different problem

Follow this guide. If you read it on a mobile browser, you will need to view it in desktop mode.
It has links for the Mi Flash Tool and the fastboot ROMs on the page.

Just noticed the link is missing
