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!

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
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

No
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.

Hello,
First of all, I'm sorry about newbie questions. I'm new here and haven't unlocked and installed custom rom ever.
I have xiamoi global 12.5.2 version but there are lot of bugs like expand screenshot, google dialer, spotify music control and list goes forever. I want to boot to .eu rom but i have tried following this - tutorial - Waiting for 168 hours to unlock bootloader.
I want to ask, what about updates? there wouldn't be any automatic update as we have now (although in last 6 months Mi haven't released any update on global version), and UI is full of bugs.
Also, is there any con of leaving my official rom and changing to .eu rom? any specific tool which wouldn't work after this? like maps, gps or android auto etc?
Also, what's the gaming experience on .eu rom?
One more noob question, what is difference between Recovery and Fastboot? , I'm looking to download rom from here https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/star/

Lol, i will stick with with Global.
EU base on CN rom, so it will be updated faster. But original CN rom is not for global users so u almost cant use it normally
EU fixed that problem. But it has more bugs than official global. And some people reported that Android auto didnt work
Global lastest beta stable was releases in September, so stable update coming soon.
I dont need fast update, that need a stable rom, everything works. So i prefer global rom

I don't need fast updates . I definitely need a stable rom, So do you have any fix for these issues like google dialer (call recording beeps announcement), missing spotify music control on notification bar? and if possible for scroll screenshot.
If these small and minor bugs are addressed . i would be happy on global version too. I've posted these issues multiple times in service and feedback in xiamoi but no one replies and they remains unaddressed everytime.

- call recording beeps announcement: it's the must have function of google dialer, cant do anything unless u change it to miui dialer
- spotify music control: u should try to set Battery saver function of spotify to no restrictions, and if the problem still happen, u can try to lock spotify in recent apps
- scroll screenshot isn't available with all app, and it isn't a problem of miui only

I've one secondary galaxy s20 FE and OnePlus 7 pro and scroll screenshot works super fine with them in all apps. It's exclusive problem of MIUI.
And can i root and install miui dialer? Any tutorial? Without interferencing with rom?
As you have been told, you'd better stick with global ROM, EU ROM is either more buggy and lacks performance as well. The latest global is 12.5.6 and you can push the update manually. If you want to try a different branch you must consider EEA ROM which has recently gotten the enhanced version
For long screenshot I've purchased screen master app, it works excellent. Solves one bug.
Google dialer is only major concern for me right now.

I tried it didn't work.
Anyways, i found alternative app for call recording that serves the complete purpose.
Fixed scrolling screenshot with screen master.
Spotify with lock screen app permission.
And call recording announcement with call recording tool , i tried about 10+ , only one worked out of many. In all we could listen to our own voice but not other party.
Only issue left is unresponsive touch screen sometimes specially button buttons. But i believe that is fixed in 12.6 as many users have reported here so I'll wait for that update without changing rom or anything. I can bear that.
I was warned by many experts for MIUI and that turned out of be true.

i just bought the redmi note 10 pro and it's working just fine, but my friend told me that the EU ROM is much better and it has more features on it.
which one is better global or EU ROM?
I use the xiaomi.eu rom. It does have more features and is less bloated.

But this is with root right? I use a lot of finance and trading on my phone, how secure and safe are those roms?
Now i have stock EEA firmware, they go by GDPR and EU rules. No ads and you will need to accept a prompt on every instance where they would collect data. I like this only problems EEA gets updates a bit slower.

Actually root is not required. Only requirement is unlocked bootloader. On android devices only trusted apps should be granted root then most of your financial/trading apps will be safe. Because other user apps won't be able to access financial app's data which haven't been granted root permission.
