This has been answered and mentioned several times unfortunately. Please use the search function before posting threads
You cannot go from STABLE to BETA without unlocking the bootloader, and you especially cannot do it from the updater. It must be flashed. I'm going to assume that you are trying to "update" to the new version with Android Pie. The Mi Mix 2S just a day or two ago received stable MIUI 10 with 9.0. Be patient and wait for the update for us as it should be arriving soon. Beta versions were intended for developers and for testing purposes and may have bugs. It really is not worth the trouble of unlocking the bootloader and jumping to a test version for a newer version of Android even more so when a "stable" version is just around the corner. Most things will remain unchanged from MIUI 10 based on 8.1.0 to MIUI 10 based on 9.0. People have been bricking their devices due to little experience with Xiaomi smartphones, and it would be terrible to see another one join the list.
How long we wait?
I've got a global mi 8
It's mid march, latest update is 8.1 Oreo Android with 9.6.6
I keep searching for updates and shows none

It's global stable rim
Android 8.1
Miui 9.6.6
Model m1803e1a
Bought on eBay all works fine just can't upgrade
If I download a zip file and try to install under system update - choose file it says the this rom isnt valid for carrier type or something like this.

Sorry for the late reply. I believe it may possibly have a vendor ROM. Your phone should have updated over a month ago to MIUI 10. At this point I believe the only solution would be to unlock the bootloader in order to flash the latest version. Unfortunately this takes about 30 days after the unlock is requested.
That's the 3UK version of global.
No updates as of yet,either be patient or unlock bootloader and flash global stable of Pie.
Yes. And to be honest, DO NOT rush for 9.0. There is severe battery drain on 10.2.2.0 and 10.2.3.0. I used to get 6+ hours of SOT (screen on time), on 10.2.2.0 I would get about 5hrs, on the latest 10.2.3.0 I get 4 hours. Others have complained about the same. In my opinion, the added features aren't worth the battery life lost.

We have 3 Mi8's in our house
Personally I am using the Mi-Globe version " globeROM_v10_dipper_9.3.21_cfg" it is fantastic! It has all of the features such as dark mode, AOD options, face unlock, charging animations, the best themes from all over the world and zero ads.
On the other 2 phones we have the official 10.2.3. While its not as good as 9.3.21 the battery life is still about 8 hours SOT.
Is it possible? I could on Mix 2s easily via recovery.
It is possible. You have to download the latest Oreo based beta version, which is MIUI 8.9.7, and install this package via the software update section in the settings. Once you are on the Oreo beta, you'll get the newest beta via the software updater.

I can confirm that it works. Started from Global stable 10.0.3.0, flashed the global beta 8.9.7 and then updated to beta 8.10.25 and the last step was to beta 10.11.2

I think you can't because the beta versions are based on Pie and the stable on Orea, so i suppose the ARB can give you some problems

the beta version stable doesn't exist. Beta or stable. I prefer beta because i have weekly updates, more functions, and more bugs solved
And how is the battery? Better or worse?
Now that the last stable version is based on Pie, do you think it's possible to go back from Dev Rom to stable?

Hi @ricpicpr, what is best way to run Global beta, with twrp and root? In my theory is the always before install new beta, flash back stock boot.img, than install update and than again flash twrp and root. Is it correct?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Well im trying to understand this, because since my Mi8 is unlocked and rooted for the first time i have to update it with the weekly update. I received OTA notification and i have downloaded the OTA update (8.12.7) but when i confirm to Updater to apply the weekly update my phone restarted in twrp and the update failed. So yes maybe the way is to restore the original recoevery, flash the last weekly version and then flash twrp and root (with magisk in my case): I don't like very this, a bit too complicated but for now i can't imagine better and shorter ways

What do you think about recoveries which are posted on miui forums. I don't remember names and don't have read entire threads but from my understanding this recoveries are able install "update".zips. This friday come my Mi8, I know about +1 month for unlock bootloader, but I want to be informed and be ready

If you have TWRP, you can just install the FULL ROM ZIP of betas or stable and flash with TWRP without issues. Just download them from the official XIAOMI website. You cannot install the incremental updates that come from the internal ROM updater software. It only downloads the difference in the ROM versions, and it will fail because files that need patched have changed and fail the validation process. You might have to re-root and install the recovery after you flash.

I'm worried about coming back from beta to stable. As I read on web with ARB u can't make downgrade (from newest version to older). So in my theory is possible to came back from beta to stable just in one case and that is little bit...
Example:
Last beta version was released on sunday 15.5.2018
Last stable version WILL/WAS be relesed thursday 19.5.2018
So u have 2 days for make jump from beta to stable because on next sunday 22.5.2018 will be released another beta which will be again newest than last stable version or dont make any update of beta after release stable version.
Ofcourse I can be wrong

Uhm...i think the ARB check the Android version only. So if you are on Pie you can't go back to Oreo. Only this

...I am trying to flash the latest version of the MI9 Miui Dev-ROM but get always the massage
" You're allow to flash the newest dev version publishedby Miui forum from stable version only"
currently I am on V10.2.12.0 on my global Mi9 (bootloader locked)
Any idea how to change to the Dev-Rom
Thx for your support!
If I'm not wrong, you have to unlock the bootloader first and then flash it.
Thx for your reply, but ROMs released from Xiaomi don't require an unlocked Bootloader..... Normally!

Taken from Xiaomi official side:
Note: You can upgrade your phone by Local Update method without unlocking your phone. The method suits for the situations listed below for sure: Update to Global Stable ROM from Global Stable ROM, Update to Global Beta ROM from Global Beta ROM, Update to Global Beta ROM from Global Stable ROM and vice versa. If you encounter the issue that the reboot page keep loading for a long time after flashing, you can choose to wipe all data via entering Recovery Mode. You can turn off your device and then hold both Volume+ button and Power button at the same time to enter Recovery Mode.
I think the problem ist an other one.
You have not the real Global Rom - its the GLobal EEA Version - some like the Russian or Indian Version of MIUI.
This time the also release e EEA Version for the European Mi9's.
It could be that there never will be a Devloper Rom for Mi 9. So it musst be called MI9 EEA Global beta.
I think the real Global Version will be released later for markets like Malaysia or Hong Kong.
Dont like that, cause im also effectet, but i think thats it These time.

Make sense, as there is an "EEA section" with a stable ROM on the MIUI page and a "global section" for the Dev-ROM...means I need to wait until I can unlock my Bootloader to switch!?

Yes but be careful, if you Flash via unlocked Bootloader you can't relock. if you do, you get softbricked.
Also with unlocked Bootloader you cant use GPay without Magisk and with Magisk ist also a bit tricky These days.
And i also think without Global EEA Rom you will los Widevine L1, but i cant confirm this, but i think so.
So better you wait to see if there will come a EEA Global Beta or you better stay with the Stable one.

Thx for this advice.....most likely I am moving to Xiaomi.eu anyway, and right after changing the Rom I will never re-lock BL.

Hi! i am very new to the xiaomi community. i have just bought a pre-owned xiaomi mi 9.
it was shipped to me via POST mail, when i opened the phone it is a xiaomi mi 9 chinese version. :crying:
i want to flash a new rom on it, and currently i am torn between the three roms.
i just want to know your opinions on these three roms in all aspects (battery life, performance, gaming etc...)
1. miui eu
2. global rom
3. RevOS
***i have seen the miui eu vs RevOS (here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/Mi-9/help/revolution-os-vs-xiaomi-eu-one-recommend-t3934804) but i want to know how they are versus each other and the global rom.
how are the updates on these roms (miui eu, miui global, and revos) delivered? do i need to reflash every time? or i can just update just like a regular stock miui chinese rom? (a.k.a. by going to the settings and clicking the update button there and rebooting)
thank you. :angel::angel:

Hello. xiaomi.eu rom is based on the beta or stable rom of china. she's stable for everyday use. it benefits from news before the global. the beta rom is translated into several languages and updated every Friday. I use it now and I prefer it overall, it is much smoother. on the other hand it is necessary the bootloader to unlock.

that is for when i am flashing the rom newly,
i am asking about when i update.
I was on global rom and battery was very bad, but beem a week on revos its very clean amd good battery.
I recommend RevOs.
I have the Global EU (NOT xiaomi.eu) and i have good battery life (over night max battery drain of 5%), its buttery smooth and no bugs. Its official by Xiaomi but i heard updates are not as frequent as the China Global. Also since Global EU is stock you can just flash that over without unlocking bootloader if i am correct. The XiaoMiTool V2 somewhere here in the forum could be helpful for you if you want to stay stock and dont want to unlock your bootloader.
Edit: Also the Global EU has Widevine L1 which you need for Netflix HD. Dont know if the pther ROMs have that.

I don't have any ads then. Seems the Global EU doesn't have all this Chinese preloaded apps. It has some xiaomi apps which can't be deleted, but otherwise I never had any problems. I was thinking of getting the xiaomi.eu so I can have notifications visible all the time and not just when they are incoming but that's all. I guess soon xiaomi will release an update for the global eu which will add this functionality back. Honestly this Rom is already so much superior than any other Phone I used and I think I can wait a couple of months for updates instead of having to deal with bugs and updates every two weeks with the xiaomi.eu
Hey guys,
I have to wait the stupid 168 hours so I can unlock my Mi 9 Lite.
However when I try to install the latest MIUI 12 Beta it does not say sth like "Not authorized" but:
"Youre allow to flash the newest develop version published by MIUI forum from stable version only"
Does this mean that when I get hands on the newest MIUI 12 beta I can flash it even if unlocked?
All the best
Rob
Is better to not flash this, you can hard brick your device.
