MIUI 10 China Stable ROM to Developer ROM

I have recently purchased my first Xiaomi device (Mi 8) and so far I am impressed. I currently have a locked bootloader but have only got 15 days or so left until it is unlocked. In the mean time I was interested in upgrading my current ROM (China Stable ver 10.0.9.0) to China Developer ROM (ver 8.11.15). From what i have read I was under the impression that changing between a stable and developer/beta rom of the same region (EU, Global or China) was allowed.
I have tried doing it by the local update method which didn't work and then via XiaoMiTool to which I got to the very end of the process and was left with the following screenshot (image below) which states that I need to unlock the bootloader in order to update to China Developer ROM, is this correct? Does anyone know of any way I can install the latest China Developer Rom via another method without unlocking bootloader? Could I sideload it using XiaomiADB?
Any help would be appreciated.

You can update from china stable to china dev. Just download the latest china dev and select it from the phone`s updater. You don`t need unlocked botloader for this. I did it on my mi5 and mi8, but this will format your phone.

Thanks for the reply. I found out that it had to be the latest China Dev Oreo rom which I need to flash via update. I was then able to update to latest Pie.

Hey, I'm having the same issue. Can you point to where you downloaded the latest Oreo Dev ROM? Can't seem to find it.

I may have installed a wrong version, or maybe I changed my firmware region, idk...Please help me...

Hi There!
Same situation (well maybe, i bought my phone used so i can only assume its the same):
i have 10.1.0.132 on my Pro Plus.
Hisuite says that i am on the latest official Developer version (!!!).
I found this YT movie that sounds promising only that the download offered is for P40 Pro (no +).
But maybe it gets us into the right direction...

Okay, i have got confirmation that the seller of the phone DID do a downgrade in order to install GMS.
Hi then somehow failed and diceded to erase GMS attempts.
So thats why my phone is on the version it has now ( 10.1.0.132 ).
Here is a screenshot what HiSuite has to say, it seems to think that i am on a developer version.
(Maybe thats true, i do not know what kind of versions are / were used for the downgrade).
Screenshot basically says:
"You are now using the latest official Developer version" and then states the version number as:
Current version;: 10.1.0.132(C432E2R3P3) (Official).
As theYT video above states there seems to be some magic USB FW version taht is able to upgrade the phone to a version thats again OTA compatible.
Oh i wish i woul dhave that version for my P40 Pro Plus
Anyone?

Hi all
I can indeed confirm this is the version to manually install if you are on Tencent device with CN finger print.
Much of the Chinese gunk is now gone too....

How... Ive been trying and it just fails to update.

Download to root folder and restart phone when check for update... That's all I did

Tried but it just fails when i click on the notification

Have you previously had a custom rom and then reverted back or is the phone stock.
My CN version is the Tencent one, which is using the official CN software (Obiwan) and it's number matches the number for the software posted.
If you are the same then I'm not sure why it's not working, hopefully someone on here can help.

you have the same issue like mine, my phone also is a tencent that has WW software, so all updates are manual, you need to download the latest update per build number, have done around 3 updates to reach android 11, and so on for 12

ASUS ROG Phone II troubles

Hello! I have a problem with ROG PHONE 2, I bought it from China with a global version, but I think it was flashed there by the Chinese to the global version and I can't update it to the latest global version. Currently the version is PKQ1.190414.001.WW_Phone-16.0640.1908.12! What would you advise me? I also have the following problem when unlocking the pixelated screen and I have to turn it on and unlock from the button 4-5 times to fix it. https://photos.app.goo.gl/m6deeo8xnQsFNJwF6

do you mean the automatic updates in the system? you can manually update your phone by downloading the latest firmware (Make sure to select WW version if your phone is global) in the official site and saving it in the root folder (Just inside the internal storage) and it will be detected by your phone, if not just restart your phone (you can see in the notification that the phone detects a new update)

I've already tried it gives an error! Maybe I should go through another lower version first?

Question Redmi Note 12 Pro Plus 5G does not work with NFC if it is running MIUI Global.

I updated my smartphone to MIUI Global just to have access to NFC technology, the android detects the feature but when registering the card the google wallet returns a message that the phone does not meet the security requirements.

Is the bootloader unlocked?

Smartphone came with the original china rom with the bootloader unlocked, I already updated to MIUI INDIA, but as we know it does not support NFC, as soon as the global MIUI came out I opted for the update in the hope of NFC working, it appears however when registering the card it returns that error.
Note: Smartphone does not have ROOT access.

The bootloader is unlocked, that's why.

Is it just blocking the bootloader then ?
But if I block the bootloader, will I have to stay in the device's original ROM, which is China?

Indeed, you cannot lock the bootloader on a rom other than CN.
The solution,rooter+Magisk+zygisk+safetynet module.

Is Bootloader the same thing as Root?

Technically not, but for your problem, the phone is considered not to have all the required security.
Root+Magisk+zygisk+safetynet module are undetectable, moreover all rom users other than CN, use this method to have a certified device.

I have the eea. If i unlock the bootloader and install the global i wont have nfc?

If you have a Global version phone (model 22101316G) you can install any stock rom (except CN) and lock the bootloader.
EDIT:
All models( 22101316G, 22101316I, 22101316C) of this phone support NFC, but with an unlocked bootloader, the addition of payment cards is refused for security reasons.
