How to get rid of ****ty miui :(

Hello,
Today i got my brand new mi8 (from china).
Unluckily, it has some ****ty custom ROM with no actualisation feature. I can't even install offical global rom or unlock bootloader.
So I need to flash my device - and here's the question.
How can I flash my ****ty rom to a offical global rom? as this post says it's forbidden https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-8/development/firmware-global-china-stock-firmware-t3818194
So should I flash to a china rom, than unlock bootloader and than install official global/some xiaomi.eu? Any simple solution would be great.
Thanks for help
UPDATE : I found hidden update app and installed global miui 9.6.1.0(OEAMIFD), but I still have ads in MI browser, etc. Will reseting phone to the fabric settings work?

Redmi K20 Pro - China Rom Convert to MI 9T Pro?

Hi All,
I recently purchased a new Redmi K20 Pro off a friend who by mistake bought what I believe to be a Chinese ROM phone due to opening up apps in Chinese...
I have unlocked the bootloader and am ready to progress to flashing a new rom. However, I have seen in videos and read that you need to flash the correct rom in order not to brick the device. You can create issues by not using the correct vendor rom? I'm wanting to flash a global rom in order to not have a chinese rom with Chinese apps...
What I am hoping to achieve is to flash a global or rom that is in english with google apps ready to go.
I also want to know if I will be able to lock the bootloader once I have flashed the new rom or do I not worry about locking it? I assume if I lock the bootloader, I will be able to use google pay etc?
I have searched and I am unable to find a correct guide that will work for the device I bought...
Can anybody please point me in the right direction with what I need to do in order to get my phone to a global rom where all apps are in English please?

Look here for the fastboot ROM
https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/supported/miui/
Choose the fastboot ROM for either European or Global raphael
Use this guide to flash it
https://c.mi.com/oc/miuidownload/detail?guide=2
View the page in desktop mode if viewing on a phone.
IMPORTANT
You must not lock the bootloader. You will brick the phone if you lock the bootloader with any ROM other than Chinese.
The default flash option in the Mi Flash Tool is to lock the bootloader when flashing. You must change this.
In step 5 of the guide make sure you change the flash option to 'clean all' in the Mi Flash Tool before hitting the flash button.

I guess you can only use this method if you bought a global phone that shipped with a global ROM (not CN ROM) from the outset?

This new rom is an EA Global so I think it is safe to flash only if you have the same base!

Question Just bought a Note 10 5G & have a interesting question

So I just got a Note 10 5G off of eBay....Looking at the MIUI Version & I am puzzled. It just updated to 13.0.4.0 SKSEUHG & I'm not finding SKSEUHG Versions anywhere....Someone have an idea other than it's obviously an EU Version? Is it a specific carrier phone that has been unlocked?

yes, it is a carrier phone. it is possibly branded as Hutchison Telecom if im sure
also, im pretty sure its impossible to get your hands on a carrier rom, as they come flashed by default with their bloatware installed and some tweaking they did, only on region roms (global, eea, indo, russian, taiwan and turkey) but not carrier roms
Hmmmm...That is about what I thought.....It has done 2 updates so far (came with 13.0.2.0 & now is 13.0.4.0), so it looks like I'm getting OTA. What would be a good path to change over to a generic EU or Global ROM? Or is that not a good idea?
Probably is a branded firmware. I suggest replace it with global or eu version. If u like miui dialer install indonesian. If u dont want unlock bootloader, u can install only eu firmware, because u have a branded eu

note that this will erase all of your data, so make a backup if you need
install MiFlashPro (attached)
now, download any EEA MIUI ROM of your preference (miui 13 or 12) from any website, you can try mifirm.net that downloads alot faster than any other website i know of
after downloading it, you must extract it to the dir C:\, or Mi Flash wont detect the ROM for some reason (atleast for me)
open up mi flash pro, click on the "Mi Flash" tab in the top, and install the drivers pop up
connect your phone to fastboot mode by turning it off, pressing VOL- & POWER buttons at the same time till you see a orange text displaying "FASTBOOT"
on mi flash, click "select", open up the dir C:\ and simply select the ROM folder
now, click refresh to detect the phone in fastboot, and simply clean "flash" besides it.
Thank You....Much simpler than the LG G8 I owned before (LOL)....you had to use QPST with Firehose to change a vendor phone......Take a look at this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/tutorial-crossflash-bypass-opid-mismatched-error.4345963/
Lots of fun (not)
And I would "assume" a Fastboot ROM instead of a Recovery ROM?

yes, fastboot
recovery ROM is only used to update your phone with the same ROM region from miui updater
