I just installed Global Stable after testing Xiaomi.EU rom, but after install the sensors gyroscope accelerometer, magnetic etc are not working.
I used MiFlash to flash global stable.
Any way to fix it? :crying:
Tks!
Hello, it's a common issue, you have to flash the persist.img file that is included in the fastboot ROM
You need to flash it via TWRP because the file is write protected via ADB

I had the same problem, I had to unlock back the phone, flash a Chinese TWRP and flash the persist.img as an image into the persist partition
Edit : I'm gonna send the right TWRP for that
Edit 2 : here you go, you can flash the persist partition with this one

Yes you can, and you can relock the bootloader using MiFlash as you said It will be completly stock
But I have to warn you that doing that broke my Widevine L1 certification, and I haven't find a way to get them back yet

I think sensors don't work it's worse than if they're not certified.

Even if the original system is installed yeah, but it doesn't seem to be the case for everyone, some people still get the Widevine L1 even after flashing the persist.img
That's what I tought too
Well, I flashed and now phone works Perfect!!

As Widevine L1 is a key to unlock advanced features in commercial video streaming it might just not be that simple to restore the protected key when it has been corrupted or deleted. The whole point with it is to protect from use of the advanced video on hardware where the makers do not pay for it.
So, restoring might have to be done at a service point.
Your best bet is to keep in touch with _Nexus8_ here because he is looking very deep into this problem!

Global/EEA firmware : L1
Chinese firmware : L3
Check your firmware version first !
which version i could not understand

Ok, i see. You have a global firmware and it looks like the Netflix issue found in the previous android version is still present in Q.
I'm not using android 10 yet. Wait for a fix from MIUI or try a custom rom !
If you want to use Android 10 with Widevine L1 working. I suggest using a custom rom, I am using a crDroid official rom on my Mi 9 Lite. It works perfectly, SafetyNet is passed and I have Widevine L1. As you can see here with Netflix.
If you have not flash to the PERSIST section, there is no problem. If the installation is done, there is no ROM use l1
Did you relocked bootloader again? I think it is mandatory on Global/EEA rom to have L1.
yes i locked again but l3

Yes. If you use the Mi Flash Tool do not lock the bootloader, you will brick the phone. Make sure you choose the 'clean all' option.

You can get the latest fastboot ROMs from here

If you change your mind and want to go back to the Indian ROM get it from here

Here's the flashing guide from the official MIUI forums
https://c.mi.com/oc/miuidownload/detail?guide=2
You will need to view the page in desktop mode if viewing on a phone. Make sure you change the flash option in step 5 to 'clean all' before flashing.
Here's some detail from the official forums on when you can and can't lock the bootloader when cross flashing.
https://c.mi.com/thread-2584760-1-0.html
Global here means all versions that are not China.
Many users have cross flashed Indian phones with a Chinese ROM. The only problem will be if you forget to change the flash option and lock the bootloader.

Use this guide for flashing the MIUI 12 beta ROM.
https://c.mi.com/oc/miuidownload/detail?guide=1
Again it needs to be viewed using desktop mode if on a mobile.
I'm not sure if you can flash directly over Indian MIUI, you might be able to. To be safe you could fastboot flash the latest China stable ROM first. Or ask in the MIUI 12 beta thread if it's safe to flash directly over Indian MIUI, maybe someone has already tried.
I'm using k20 pro indian varient as my primary device.
Note: I don't have any secondary device.

The Mi Flash Tool always defaults to 'clean all and lock', which will lock the bootloader after flashing. You MUST change this to 'clean all' before flashing, otherwise you will hard brick the phone. If you remember this, then it's safe, if you forget then it is not safe.
Because you can not lock the bootloader with the Chinese ROM installed, SafetyNet will fail and banking apps will not work.
In order to get around this you will need to install Magisk.
This guide tells you everything you need to know on passing SafetyNet and getting banking apps working.

Hi All
Pulled the trigger last night and ordered a 256GB 11 Ultra from Wonda. The wait for the next couple of weeks will be painful haha.
This will be the first Xiaomi I've used having previously used Samsung and Oneplus etc. How easy is it to flash the EU rom? Does it need to be rooted or unlocked BL first?
Thanks

Xiaomi phones are allowed to have their bootloaders to be unlocked and welcome custom ROMs. There is one previso, you have to wait a week ( 168 hours). You must agree and fully bond your phone with your Xiaomi account first. Then using the online or mi unlock tool you start the process. Once successfully started, you wait a week and then go back to the online or tool and actually do the unlock. This reboots your phone and formats the data, so have an off phone back up or data source.
Once unlocked, you can install custom ROMs like the EU ROM, which I will use when Available. 2 methods of flashing custom ROMs, fastboot via a PC or TWRP recovery. When a TWRP recovery is available, this is the easiest method but as this tends to be a while after the phones release, you tend to have to update by pc and fastboot for a while. To replace stock recovery with TWRP recovery, you again use a pc and fastboot the TWRP over your stock recovery and then boot direct to it and flash a TWRP .zip ROM when available. Of course you don't need to format each update, only if you change ROM branches. The EU ROM has a stable and both weekly ROM versions. Both are based on stock Chinese but made more like a global ROM. Their ROMs are the best choice if you want a good custom ROM based still in Xiaomi miui system.
You don't need to root to do any of the above. If you want to see my guide I wrote when the 10 Ultra was released, take a look at my guide here... https://mega.nz/file/fIoWUD4a#q1S3wYoOltgaPcchAiXc3dHal7Sf31k5BZQBM4xy6NE
It takes you through ensuring your phone is bonded with your Xiaomi account, unlocking, flashing by fastboot, installing TWRP, flashing by TWRP, updating and changing ROM branches. I will release a 11 Ultra version later this month when mine arrives but it should be no different in process.
Just don't expect kernel sources to be released complete...
But after changing to the global rom, will it update automatically?
Or do we have to do it manually?

You need to do it manually with the batch file. As long as there is no TWRP for that model OTA will not work unfortuantely.

Thank you for the replay. Thats is the only reason i will have to wait for the global variant.
Thought I read it someone if one flashes stock eu rom over China rom using mi flash too jar... you can lock bootloader back and it will receive OTA.
Is this information wrong ?

Guys someone successfully flashed Global rom on CN version phone ?
I have updated to the latest MIUI Global 13,0,2,0 and I NEED ROOT ACCESS, how do i go about it now?
i know it cant be done via trwp but fastboot...
i downloaded the miui_STARGlobal_V13.0.2.0.SKAMIXM_eecc15ab63_12.0 but there is no boot.img inside??? (that is the rom version i currently have installed)
PLEASE help me root my device
1. Yes and it takes 168 hours to complete and ends with a format. Use official mi unlock tool.
2. There is only one custom ROM. It is the Xiaomi EU ROM and available on that forum or via mifirm.net
3. Safetynet will not pass while on a rooted ROM. Unless you use magisk. My question is why do you need root? The Xiaomi EU ROM passes safteynet and all you banks, gpay etc work fine without root. There is no working twrp on A12, all A12 updates on Xiaomi EU ROM are fastboot.
4. Plenty of guides in this or the Xiaomi EU forum for 11 Ultra but obviously there is always risk in flashing but even when bricked, these can be brought back to life with the help of anyone with an edl account.

Awesome, thank you kindly for that great reply,
2) is that custom Rom any better than stock or has some sort of advantage over stock? Extra features, programs, tweeks...?
This custom rom come pre-rooted?
3) i don't need root for anything in particular, I've always had root on every single Android I've ever owned, once in a blue moon it comes in handy, i do plan on using magisk,
- from memory mine came with Android 11 Global, will twrp work on that?
5) That 1 custom rom, does it receive updates or voids warranty? And it is possible to revert back to stock but not downgrade Android versions...?

2. We call it "custom" but it just stock miui China rom of 11U with some mod for working in global area
As u know if u unlock phone, some app will not work normally (like banking, Google pay, Netflix...) they already fix almost all of the problem like that. And every default app can be uninstall easily (but xiaomi already have the way to uninstall thêm too).
And it isn't pre-rooted
3. If u dont want to do anything with root, i recommend u to stay away from it.
A11 is working fine with twrp, u can find official twrp in forums
MIUI 13 (A12) isn't.

You mentioned if I unlock my phone some apps won't work... You mean if I root my phone right? There's magisk hide that Helps to bypass these restrictions...
If there's no custom ROMs or special mods then I don't see the point in installing twrp? Unless there's advantages of twrp on Xiaomi phones?
Can I root the current stock firmware that's installed now on my device ?

with me, i just need twrp when i want to use xiaomi.eu rom, they usually realease recovery zip file for update rom. But now still no working twrp with A12, so they realease fastboot rom, and i dont want to use xiaomi.eu rom anymore so i dont care about twrp
yes. u can always comeback to stock with flash fastboot rom (or recovery rom with working twrp)
i prefer fastboot rom because i just think it's cleaner than recovery (LOL)
And with fastboot method, u can relock bootloader if u want, just need to carefully pick the right rom of your phone original. (eg: global unit can only relock using global rom, eea with eea rom, CN with CN rom)

If I want custom rom, i will go for xiaomi.eu
And here i talk about official fastboot rom, thanks
You're misinformed.
They offer the official rom, all they do is to pack it in a fastboot installer.
Again, official rom, repacked. I'd advise a fact check because you are active in answering people, but your knowledge is obviously partial.
