Hello,

I am sure I am using the correct indian rom fast boot tgz file. What I am doing wrong?
Which rom are you trying to flash?

The rom I am trying to flash
http://bigota.d.miui.com/V11.0.1.0....KINXM_20191022.0000.00_10.0_in_a5e104919b.tgz
few days back i ran into similar problem
my device is raphalein (K20 PRO INDIAN)
and i flashed miui 11.0.2 China FASTBOOT Rom.
later when i tried to install Indian FASTBOOT ROM
it said device and vendor missmatch in MI flash.
i fixed this problem by firstly flashing RECOVERY orangefox( its an entire process so...do it carefully)
than wiped everything , DATA ,CACH, SYSTEM, DALVIK CACHE, VENDOR
and then flash this https://downloads.akhilnarang.me/MI...al-V11.0.1.0.QFKINXM-10.0-vendor-firmware.zip
and now u can flash FASTBOOT LATEST INDIAN ROM.
hope it will fix it.

I am trying to boot the device with global rom now but it is just stuck in miflash for 30min, how long it should take?
There was an easy solution to this. All you had to do is change a couple of lines in the installation script and flash it with Mi flashtool. I also got the error and did a simple Google search and figured it out.

Is possible I think, before change to pie, make sure .zip file of pie must include kernel. I guess recommend flash via miui recovery / TWRP and wipe data. Because update different version of Android, 8.1 to 9.0
I never try Pie because my Arb=4. U can try, if bootloop you can flash this stable version again

What will be ARB level after installing this MIUI 10.2.3 or 10.2.5 ODCCNXM ROM?
Currently I have MIUI stable stock ROM 9.6.6.0. If I upgrade it to 10.2.5.0, than can I downgrade to MIUI stable 9.6.60 again?

You can I found the method in a Russian website, but the Bootloader will remains on 6X. But technically you can install AndroidONE again, btw for updating you need to use alternative ways. ( Due to the 6X Bootloader)

I tried but did not help. When I reboot system, MIUI 10 formats storage with encryption again. I tried following scenarios:
1) Opened TWRP and format data. Reboot system
2) Opened TWRP and format data. Reboot to TWRP again. Reboot to system
3) Opened TWRP and format data. Reboot to TWRP again. Flash magisk. Reboot to system
All has same affect. and TWRP asks password again and again.

Your Data partition can mount in TWRP?
if TWRP ask password, probably because install TWRP with active password lockscreen in system. When install recovery make sure deactive lockscreen pasword first
Try this recovery: https://sourceforge.net/projects/pitchblack-twrp/files/wayne/

I can't mount data partition in TWRP. TWRP asks for password. I did not flash TWRP. I just boot TWRP from fastboot when I need with fastboot boot twrp.img command. I tried pitchblack recovery but the result is same.
Hi,
I have the Mi 9T Pro global (not EU, China or India), and the only ROMs I have been able to boot are Xiaomi.eu. I've tried flashing HAVOC, Syberia Project, Evolution X and C-Droid following their instructions, the results are always the same: black screen, and TWRP becomes unaccessible, even if I try reflashing TWRP from Fastboot, it won't let me. Then I have to boot into Fastboot and flash stock ROM using Mi Flashing Tool, and flash TWRP from Fastboot again. What am I missing?

Exactly the latest one from mauronofrio, no other, as I even tried flashing Orange Fox and it never got into it, forcing me to reflash stock again to flash mauronofrio's TWRP.
I followed instructions from the ROMs I tried, none of them seem to work.

Same here. I can install eu miui roms but cannot install any aosp based roms. Goes straight back to fast boot. Went back to using eu miui roms as of now.
Can anyone suggest what is going wrong. Seems like once you install an EU rom you cannot go back to any aosp roms.
I'm thinking about the vendor. I remember a post saying that our firmware or vendor are weird and try to revert to stock, and need to be patched. But I can't find that post anywhere. I've tried all suggestions: format /data, flashing Magisk, flash ROM and GAPPS and wait for boot to complete to flash Magisk (never got that far).

Also, is there any risk to brick or lose bands if flashing a Chinese vendor on a global phone? I don't want to lose the only LTE band in my country (700 b28)

if I remember correctly I left the device for at least 20-25 mins, coz I watch slot of videos while it was stuck.
I'll try to leave it for longer in the morning and post results
After updating, device name change from note 7 to mi 8
Maybe stupid question but does this rom have app drawer instock mi launcher?
Before we start, I am on an unlocked boot loader with Stock EU rom along with twrp/magisk installed.
So I went ahead and downloaded the latest full rom from c.mi.com and proceded to flash it via twrp, but before that, I made a nandroid backup just for safekeeping. Everything went well but when I tried to install magisk it gave me cannot mount system error. So i tried restarting Twrp but the whole storage was now encrypted even though I took of pin/password from the previous MiUi version. So I googled a bit and tried different Twrp version but none of them even booted but the original version so I gave up and just restored the nandroid backup and this is where the boot loop problem started.
In the end, I went ahead and flashed the whole thing using miflash which went smoothly but not without me being utterly depressed the whole time thinking that I might have hard bricked my device.
Is there any way I can avoid all this headache in the future when Miui 11 and android Q comes out cause I am pretty scared to even try to flash anything atm.
You need to wipe data after flashing TWRP otherwise you won't boot and also the phone will restore the stock recovery on reboot if you don't flash dm_verity

If you have, only latest orangefox 1.0.0.7 or Mauronofrio's TWRP working for this device. Abhisheks or LR TWRP doesn't work on Mi 9T Pro.

Yup Mi9t Pro user here, and yea for me only latest Mauronofrio's twrp works, but not sure if it will work with Miui11/Q when it is released sometime today
Just googled the orangafox recovery you mentioned, is the one with OrangeFox-R10.0_7-Stable-raphael name?

I think it will work. Because I'm on indian Q Firmware with LOS 17 and there was no issue with Mauronofrio's TWRP.
Yes that's the right orangefox version. I didn't remember the exact name. I tried it once but went again back to TWRP because i grew up with it. :laugh:

Thanks for the info regarging Twrp. everything will go smoothly this time hopefully.
I also wanted to ask that did you format data after installing twrp via fastboot? I was reading on Twrp thread that if you get encrypted after flashing twrp then you will have to format all data for it to disable encryption. This is the only thing that I am still confused about and I really dont want to format my internal storage again . Can you maybe list steps that you took to upgrade to Android Q? thanks

The problem was that no matter what recovery(apart from one) I tried including Orange fox, after flashing them via fastboot I always ended up being stuck at Mi logo ( even tried fastboot reboot recovery command)

I have Mi 9T pro like you and flashed Orangefox recovery version _07 and no problem at all, i also flashed disable_dm_verity just to be safe and i believe this is where people get stuck on mi logo, if you flash this file it blocks your system from restoring the stock recovery on reboot and makes your TWRP/Orangefox permanent.

Hi All, it's time i clean up my K20 Pro as i have upgraded to a F2 Pro.
The K20 Pro has MIUI 10.3.17 CN ROM from about 10 months ago, bootloader unlocked, magisk etc.
When trying to miflash it with a MIUI 12.0.5 CN latest fastboot rom in order to get back to factory, the progress bar completes in 1 second, and status is green and success, BUT the phone does not reboot itself. Using miflash 20181115 with clean all option.
After i unplug phone and reboot it manually nothing was flashed - everything is still on there.
Any ideas?
Thought i would try doing factory reset from within the system and at first it appeared to be going thru the reset - however upon reboot, everything remains.
The other things is i have TWRP on it, wondering if i should do anything there?
Looking for assistance on what the correct procedure is...

That might work or maybe use newer version of mi flash tool

Hi, how can one flash without miflash? and the miflash no believe is the last version I think.
Would prefer a miflash completely to get rid of TWRP too.
any other ideas why this is happening?

Xiaomi Flash Tool - Official Mi Flash Tool
Download the latest and Official Xiaomi Flash Tool from the Official Xiaomi Flash Tool Website.
xiaomiflashtool.com
try downloading latest flash tool from this website
if not then try flashing without flash tool and u will not be able to retain twrp if u flash fastboot rom by any means.
if flash tool doesn't work then just extract the zip i have attached here and paste all files of fastboot rom folder in this folder and run the flash_all.bat file and it should work if u have all drivers installed.
The newer miflash worked! thank you so much Ezio!
Would you happen to know if there is any way to get Google PlayStore onto a K20 Pro?
I saw some threads on 'just flash it with a global ROM' - which wasn't the case back a year ago when i had last tinkered.

yes i have an Indian k20 pro and i tried miui global rom it works fine except nfc didn't as Indian k20 pro doesn't have nfc hardware.
So yes u can do that if u want but do note that global rom has dialer and contact as well from google and not mi one.
I remember when I treid it a year ago it didn't work. The phone recognise the rom as for non-chinese and said the version was wrong. Are you sure?
Is the process same as fastboot flashing?
Guess of it doesn't work I should be able to fastboot flash it back again?
Thanks, I just found https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...Vaw1k6QstZklCOzbLJO2p_18T&cshid=1607339448068
I just have to remember not to lock the bootloader.
