[ROM] [MM] Chinese CM 13 (Unofficial) Redmi Note 3 (SD)

I created this thread because this ROM is been discussed in lot of others threads. So let's give it a separate dedicated place .
This ROM is for for advance users only. If you don't know what you're doing, don't even think of trying. Proceed at your own risk.
Problem you may face:
Will relock your bootloader.
You may not be able to restore your previous backup.
It is working great for some people and for some people it's a nightmare.
You tell me.
Why you should install it, there are 2 reasons.
You miss Finger Print Sensor
You miss Finger Print Sensor a lot.
Fingerprint unlock performance is amazingly faster than offical MIUI. And in case you don't miss Fingerprint sensor , I don't see any point of flashing this ROM. Instead go here [CYNOGEN MOD 13 ]and install my favorite ROM from one of my Fav developer @Santosh
Working:
RIL
Audio
Camera
Infrared
Finger Print Sensor
And everything except things mentioned in "not working"
Not working:
GPS
May be some other things.
Here's the offical thread. It's in Chinese language so you may need to use Google translator unless you know Chinese.

I've issues on this ROM so I reverted back to MM 6.01 CM 13 and now I can't access the security options in settings and neither set a password,pin or pattern. Any idea what's going on?

Mirror for 31st Build?
Cant download from yunpan.

Don't install this if you don't wanna get problems... It's better wait for a stable release

flash a miui rom then reunlock, you need to replace the emmc_appsboot from here with the one in 5.1.1

Can you explain step by step, if you don't mind.

safest way would be to dl fastboot ROM from miui, flash it via miflash. then simply unlock BL again using MI unlock, flash recovery as you did before and you re good to go. fastboot rom will revert everything on ur phone like it was when u bought it. rooting/unlocking you'll need to do again, but hes everything will be working as it should.

It looked like you was only asking on how to install it.
I've not tried it sorry. Have been happy enough with the LOS and Havoc GSIs.

Yes, the fixed AndyYan made for his LOS GSI has been added to Havoc. It works well. The only issue is that the camera will pop-up when booting.

No, I don't think anyone has got that working yet.
The FP is as bit slow and only recognises your finger half the time, but that is the same for all GSIs on this phone.
Hopefully these issues will improve soon, when more devs get this phone.

I'm glad you were able to try GSIs. I heard k20Pro will be release officially in India tomorrow. I hope devs would start developing dedicated roms for our device.

Back from LOS to MIUI

Hi,
I'm not fully happy with my LineageOS because I need to push a button before using the fingerprint. That's why I want switch to Xiaomi.eu MIUI 11.
Can I simply flash the ROM with TWRP or is anything else to do before?
Thanks a lot...

I think you need to wipe data and system and then flash miui.eu rom, but wait for more replies to be sure ?

check my guide bit.do/raphaelguide

Just flashed the LOS ROM yesterday and this is also annoying me.
Why does the Fingerprint Sensor not work with the screen off like with MIUI ?

It seems to be an exclusive feature from MIUI, i don't know why. That's why I'll give MIUI another try.

I followed your guide, but now I'm in a bootloop to recovery. It seems I've now to flash a fastboot ROM? How can I determine, which one I need?
Is there a way to flash it under linux or do I need a windows computer for that?

Question Owners of the Chinese version who have upgraded to the European.

Please, everyone who could upgrade your Chinese Mi 11 Ultra to global or European firmware, please describe the sequence of actions:
1) what version of phone you flashed - 8/12/256 or 12/512
2) what soft did you use to unlock bootloader
3) what version of new firmware you choosed - Global or EEA (European)
4) what mode of ref lashing did you use - "three dots" via upgrade menu (recovery) or fastboot
I think this thread will be beer useful for many of us
Thank you

i don't know of a person that has successfully done this yet.

there is none in the whole 52 pages topic on xiaomu.eu? Im also curious about your questions. I wanted to flash my phone in next two days after unlock bootloader.

I done it today, didnt check my version though before flashing. I updated with the OTA yesterday and flashed the latest stable 12.5. There is safetynet issue with that at the moment due to Xiaomi not certifying it but i fixed it with magisk.
Rom is much better

I'm on EE.
Its this one https://sourceforge.net/projects/xi...12.5.2.0.RKACNXM_v12-11-fastboot.zip/download
And its better as no Chinese text, everything working android auto etc. My news widget isn't freezing and attachments now work fine. I had issues on Chinese rom

Yeah it's working

V12.5.2.0.RKACNXM is chinese ROM, not EU or global ROM but it's good think to know than even on CN, it's possible to have multi languages and Google apps support integrated.

Isn't safety net broken so Google pay and banking apps? Won't be fixed until Xiaomi does something right??
If true I'd rather stay on China ROM until that if resolved. I have no issues at all with my China ROM.

Good thread ! We need it for now.
So first version of global rom is not safe !
I was reading all that 54 pages and I noticed that you have to update your phone software via phone settings. After that it should be compatible with xiaomi Eu rom (flastboot flashing). Also don’t use that miflash...do it
Via standard command prompt method.
(The XiomiEU Rom is based on a Chinese rom but it have such a big change log is crazy ! Is polished so well that is better than global)
thats what I understood from all that pages....but again I would wait a little bit....

Hi Axel, got your pm there too. (MobileMadeSimple) I didn't do anything special. Made sure was on latest update. Unlocked bootloader. Skipped through setup etc. Went to fastboot, ran the bat as administrator.

Question How to unlock Redmi note 10S without mi account?

Hello everyone, i am a redmi user who wish to install custom roms on my device. So i have to unlock bootloader of my device again and again. But is it possible to unlock my device without the need of mi account and mi unlock tool. Please mention if its so. I would be very gladful.

why you lock the bootloader ? just leave it unlocked, when flash firmware use the option clean_all DONT clean_all_and_lock and the bootloader will keep unlocked

I need to lock bl for security purposes, as you know fingerprint stop working after bl is unlocked, thats why.

fingerprint wont stop working after unlock bootloader, i use with unlocked bootloader, if you are consenrt about "security" just leave your device full stock, nothing else will give a miracle solution

I have same issue from Sep. I tried to flash a different version of official rom (latest version) last month and still no luck. I have youtube premium and not only loading often got stucked at the beginning of video, but also have randomly sound stuttering with screen off.
Not fixed for me.

Bro you should flash the miui 12.5.15 and after that update through the updater app. It will install the new update properly.

Thanks for kindly advice. I had this problem since upgraded from MIUI 12 to MIUI 13.
Most people who have this problem after upgraded to MIUI 13. Why didn't you receive MIUI 13 update? My version number is 13.0.10.0 .
Seems we are not on the same page.
DO NOT UPGRADE btw.

I think you didnt understand bro. I think yours one is global rom. Everybody have different solutions to this problem. I preferred you the simplest way by which I solved the problem

Mine is the indian variant. I think it would be resolved with next patch.

Mine is the Taiwanese variant. Current version is different from global one. 13.0.2.0 as I remember. I have this problem after upgraded from MIUI 12 to MIUI 13 . Not solved after two months. So I tried so-called Global Stable ROM (which is 13.0.10.0) with my fingers crossed. And the problem remained.
Not only youtube but also spotify have audio shattered problem. quite annoying.
Thanks for your kindness bro. Wish you all the best.
