Is this possible?
If yes, how?
Thanks,
If your device shipped with EEA then you can't. Because you're not able to switch from EEA builds to global builds. Iirc you can go from global stable to global dev through updater app with locked BL.

I see. Bought mine from Amazon Italy, doubt it's not EEA. That's unfortunate having to wait 15 days to Unlock BL. Thank you for the info,

Yeah it's definitely EEA then. On the plus side: EEA has Widevine L1.

Hi all, my mi 9 currently has the Chinese rom which I would like to replace with the stable EU/US. Can I do so without unlocking bootloader? thx!
No way to flash miui eu rom because it without fastbootrom.
So you just can flash MIUI EN Global stable ROM by fastboot method.

Yes, you have to wait for 360hr then Xiaomi unlock app allows you to proceed unlock bootloader procedure.
Hardware is identically bet chinese and Eu mi9. Modem.

That's because it's not a global phone. It's a Chinese phone with a fake global ROM. Go to this post to get an official ROM https://forum.xda-developers.com/k2...irmware-10-3-8-0-9-6-13-t3939647/post79726515
The second post in the thread has a guide on how to flash.
Thanks

Most sellers on AliExpress give the option to buy either a factory sealed phone with the original Chinese ROM or to buy one with an unlocked bootloader and 'global' ROM.
Hi sorry it this has been asked before but I've recently received my mi 11 ultra global version from Vodafone UK. Like the phone but some issues that are making me debate whether to keep it. Touches missing, battery life and sub par camera. Because I'm on the global version I'm on MiUI 12.0.2. I was wondering if anyone knows if I can flash the EU rom onto this to try out 12.5 to see if I want to keep the phone. I highly doubt we'll see a global release for 12.5 before my time to return the device runs out. Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks
You need to apply for the bootloader unlock process ( takes around 7 days ) and then you can flash the fastboot xiaomi.eu ROM on it just fine.
Good luck !
Brilliant thanks for the reply mate
So my bootloader is unlocked. I got Chinese model with global flashed. Can i flash EU rom via fastboot itself?

Of course you can especially by fastboot. You can flash EU custom ROM or EEA The only problem is you will have Chinese Bands no matter what ROM you install.

Flash it by twrp, not fastboot. Just in case. It's much safer by twrp. And of course, you'll need to track down a Vodafone ROM to return it if you do but I doubt it after flashing EU. And don't worry about the bands as someone said, you'll not miss out on anything.

I am assuming you mean stock. That would actually be the EEA rom. The Xiaomi.eu rom, which is the China rom. minus Chinese bloat and Google services added in must be flashed using TWRP.

He could flash the earlier one by fastboot
Why would flash a rom from over a month ago? The last fastboot rom was issued 5-13.
Hello together,
i got an Mi 11 Ultra 12.0.2 RKAEUVF. Is it possible to debrand or switch to an "clean" Rom RKAEUXM without unlocked bootloader?
Thanks in advance

AFAIK you should own the UK version, as the UK is no longer a member of the EEA (European Economic Area).
Got my Mi 11 Ultra from Vodafone in Germany... afaik the updates by Vodafone are realy bad - have to wait for updates for 5 months to be on the same stand like the "clean" Europe/Global Roms.

But global ROM is far behind the EEA (EU) and CN (China) roms...
Latest global is 12.0.2.0.RKAMIXM

Thats right, my Mi 11 Ultra has now "MIUI Global 12.0.2 Stabil RKAEUVF" it is the EU Rom with Vodafone branding afaik. Is there a way to flash it on 12.x.x RKAEUXM (Rom without Vodafone branding)?
I've no direct experience, but I suppose you need to unlock the bootloader and use a tool like this:
XiaoMiTool V2 - Modding of Xiaomi devices made easy for everyone
XiaoMiTool V2 is a easy to use tool to install rom on your Xiaomi device. Modding made easy for everyone! Download it for free now!
www.xiaomitool.com
But ask for more information before proceeding.
@Maximowic have you done it? Did you encounter any issues with it? I'm on the same situation as you, wonder if you figured it out.
I have been on EUVF, too and flashed to the custom EU Rom. I would suggest to flash it via fastboot first and then upgrade to the latest version.
hi,
is there any chance to download this version anywhere as a backup to relock the bootloader in the future?
regards
p.s.
am just not sure if with my current rom 12.5.6.0. RKAEUXM stable i would easily relock the bootloader..
my original rom was vodafone uk 12.0.2.0 RKAEUVF
please
I think you can only relock your bootloader with the original rom you had when you unlocked your bootloader or at least of the same branch

If you want 13.0.7.0 flash it with miflash.(not global but EEA).

If your device is Chinese do not lock the bootloader.

You can upgrade with OTA , but you can't use Miflash with a locked bootloader.
You cannot upgrade from global to EEA without unlocking the bootloader.

This may be due to settings or you did not format the data before the flash.
