It's your lucky day pal!
MIUI 12 stable for Merlin just dropped https://bigota.d.miui.com/V12.0.1.0.QJOCNXM/miui_MERLIN_V12.0.1.0.QJOCNXM_86c4c0b217_10.0.zip
(Link from https://www.xda-developers.com/down...ing-out-several-xiaomi-redmi-mi-poco-devices/ )
Importantly though, that is the Chinese ROM - will have to wait a while longer for the global version

I just installed this, it's really good in almost everything except the control center.
Sometimes it lags when opening.
Google?

I see this is China, does it have Google Mobile Services? If not, is there a way to install the GMS ?

It doesn't have the google play services pre installed but, there is a really easy way to install it
Launch the Mi App Store
Search for Google
Scroll down to the bottom of the list and select this option:
Install Google Play on Xiaomi phone
Though the results will be in Chinese, you should be able to make out the Google Installer app
Select Install, then when it has downloaded tap Open
Hit the big blue circular button to begin installing the various components
You will be prompted to allow the phone to install apps from unknown sources - select Settings, toggle on the slider, then proceed with the installation
Allow any prompts for permissions that pop up
I'm waiting for an EU / global version of this - doesn't seem to be forthcoming...

I suggest to wait longer for global or Xiaomi.EU version better than ( Chinese ) because at most xiaomi rolling it for testing before the final touch
I suggest you to keep on stock rom firmware only.
Root it with magisk. Flash it with twrp.
And everything is fine.

Hi All
Has anyone got this working on the Mi 11 Ultra?
I've been playing with it for a while. You get part way through the introduction and get a generic error message saying it doesn't work:
"unfortunately this app is not working"
It would be nice if the eror message contained a permission request that had been denied so you could diagnose the issue, but no.
So far I've given it every permission I can see, but still the same problem.
I'm running Chinese ROM Stable 12.5.7
Thanks
Steve
I flashed Eu Rom weekly and it works with no problems. China Rom is just so problematic. I think it will always be unless Xiaomi decides to optimise it for people outside China.

The Chinese ROM doesn't have full GMS framework, so the covid and some other Google apps won't work fully. If you want them, flash the Global or EEA ROM but your best option to keep the best of all the ROMs is to flash the official Xiaomi EU ROM.
Hi both
Thanks for your replies. Time to unlock and root my new phone then!
Cheers

The EU ROM is approved by Xiaomi Europe and is based on stock updates, stable and weekly beta versions. But yes, via twrp install and format data on first install due to partition differences between them

I thought the Eu ROM was the only "unofficial" one in the world
But this is the first xiaomi device I've ever owned or modified
Yes I mean Xioami EU rom. I believe it's based on the China ROM, but much improved. I installed a few of them on my old Note 10 Pro and they worked well.
After a battle with settings and Xiaomi's Mi Unlock, I've started the boot unlock process so Thursday next week I should be cooked.
The bit that got me was there are 2 settings you need to enable in Developer Options, namely:
USB Debugging
USB Debugging (SecuritySettings)
OEM Unlocking
Without these set, Mi Unlock displays nothing, yes nada.
First port of call after rooting and flashing for me will be checking out camera2 api. I'd like to use 3rd party camera apps with all lenses.
Then hopefully the NHS Covid app will work.

You are in fastboot mode when starting your unlock? Also try a different cable if you were. Many issues with some usb cables not, for some reason, working fully.
Lucky you.... Be glad it doesn't work.... Don't promote these Chinese surveillance apps...
On the snooping side, the firts app I load on a new phone is no root firewall:
NoRoot Firewall - Apps on Google Play
Firewall WITHOUT ROOT. Host name name filtering, fine-grained access control.
play.google.com
By default, it blocks everything so you have to check it and manually enable apps to pass through it, keeping in mind, some apps might not work at first.
If an app is trying to contact a server in China via a secure port (443) it's blocked. I recently bought a Chinese printer and the driver wanted location data and tried SSL to China so that was blocked lol.
Well after much jiggery pokery I now have the weekly EU ROM installed and the UK Covid app is working fine.
On the China ROM.....
==============
You get to a point in the setup and get some generic error message saying it might be a work phone.
On the EU ROM
===========
At the same point as above, it asks you for permissions and exposure notifications. You grant them and it carries on and works fine.
I emailed the developers about the issue and with XDA users help, have provided more info ie that it doen't work on China ROM.

The UK covid app uses Google framework services. The Chinese stock ROM does not have Google (I think I'm right in saying that it's still band from mobiles) , the mini version is non standard and an unofficial add on. The same applies to location history, this does not work on the mini GM's that's added when the phone is exported.
The Xiaomi global and EEA versions have it built in as stock as they are for export markets.
I hope you have some luck but I doubt Google services will be allowed on Chinese ROMs for a long time yet but at least the suppliers put something on us to get started with.
Hi interesting info thanks I love these forums
hi guys ,
At last i ordered my mi 11 pro from china , and i want to prepare my self to the steps ill have to take in order to replace the chinese rom to eu.rom + "twrp"+ Saftynet Passed + OTA Updates + Widevine Level 1 .
please help me understand if these are the neccessary steps ill have to take :
1. unlock the device with xiaomi tool
2. instal the "twrp"
3. flashing the eu.rom
am i right ?
thnx
Why do you want to root it? The EU ROM has widevine L1 and safetynet in the ROM, no need to root to get that. Root can be more of a pain to hide from banking and media DRM apps. Unless you really need to, don't.
Hiding root is super easy. EU rom is buggish I would not recommend it

Is it unbearable?
I have Indian version ROM, facing bugs on Daily basis. Currently I need replace Google Dialer with Xiaomi dialer mainly for call recording and smart dialing.
Well if you don't mind a slower phone after spending 1 grand, it is ok

No, not by far. Unless you are gaming or super critical than X app loads in 6ms against 5 in global, then don't worry. I've been using EU for ages not only on this phone. The Xiaomi dialler and SMS app is so much better for dual SIM phones. Look, if you don't like it, you can always go back. No 9ne 8s forcing anyone to stay EU.
I just got my hands on the mi 11 ultra, few days back I made the switch from oneplus 7 Pro.
my major concern right now is notifications from Instagram, Whatsapp & messenger.
So far I have tried, Battery restrictions, auto start, lock app from recent taps & active notification (from developer options)
however I am still unable to get instant notifications on idle screen. sometimes the notifications are delayed by few minutes or they wait for my attention (till i unlock the phone or open the particular app)
since I run an ecommerce business these notifications are crucial for me.
Kindly if anyone has been successful do share what worked for you?

Unlock your bootloader and flash global rom. Best rom for 11 ultra.
I switch between china stable, eu, and now global. No bug and great performance
Global Rom is super performing as well as chinese especially if you play with root. Obviously chinese rom is kore advanced as it works under different regulations and also more updated

Unfortunately, I have never rooted or changed ROMs on any of my android phone. hence unfamiliar with the procedure to do so. Just based of my research I think to use another ROM unlocking the Bootloader & rooting is required & by doing so, I will loss out on a lot of local (middle east-KSA) apps which are of essential use to me.

If you flash the eu ROM all the banking, payment and finance apps work fine

Whatever you do you want get perfectly timely notification in china rom. Just switched to global rom that's only option.
Did you try to give full permission to Google play services and Google services framework? Also allow autostart to it. Check if by doing so whatsapp start working as intended. Afaik whatsapp relies on Google play services to function properly. On Global rom Google play services is a system app on china is a user app, the problem is that

Couldn't find auto start or permissions for both google play services and services framework.
If you could direct me to the thread on this forum with complete guide to switch to global rom it would be appreciated.

Whatever they did in this enhanced edition that just rolled out globally has absolutely wrecked my battery life. I used to be able to get 6 to 7 hours of SOT. Now I get like 4. And I'm not even using performance mode!
U are right... enchanted my ass
Enhanced it is
Very bad experience with battery life also... EEA
Same here my battery life has tanked
Did yous all did a clean start or just update? If major update its always better to start clean.....
I have no problems with battery, you can always also turn of 5G in preferred networks, and use only LTE, it stops device from constantly searching for 5G and saves battery.
Sorry for the small hijack but was this update pushed to your phone or did you have to flash it yourself? I'm intrigued to try it. Thanks.
3 days from update my phone and i didn't see any difference.
Only new logo when i restarted...

Sure, yes I am rooted. I also use banking apps and Google pay and they work just fine. Using it in the USA.
For the security app I was searching for ways to activating GPU settings, found several guides and none worked, since the flag is already set to True it wasn't a flag issue.
So I download the apk installed through a third party file manager with root access (I use mixplore) it also works with the package installer but some apps wont install unless is with a third party.
I managed to update many of my stocks apps like settings, security, notes etc. Some I have replaced with CN version and they all work fine.
Btw if anyone wants some cool themes I been using https://www.miuithemez.com/?m=1 themes from that site, they all have access to be download within the theme app so there is no need to import them.
