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?

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.

Will I be getting the regular OTA updates?

I recently installed MIUI 12.0.2.0 my redmi k20 pro from http://bigota.d.miui.com/V12.0.2.0.QFKINXM/miui_RAPHAELININGlobal_V12.0.2.0.QFKINXM_f009b4b446_10.0.zip . Since this isn't the official way to update the miui version I doubt whether I'd be getting the offical OTA updates that Xiaomi will push in the future or I have to regularly download the latest version from https://www.xda-developers.com/download-miui-12-stable-update-rolling-out-several-xiaomi-redmi-mi-poco-devices/ thread. I am using a xiaomi device for the first time so I dont have any idea about this.

Did you install the .zip through the Updater app? The update has been rolled out, hence why you were able to download the .zip and if you updated through the Updater app you will get future OTA updates.

Many XDA threads and other reputable resources link to the official MIUI downloads.
The link above is the official link for the 12.0.2 India recovery ROM. It might not be the "normal" way to update, it is still an official way to update. You will still get the normal OTA updates.

If you have flashed this with custom recovery, ota may not work. Otherwise, it should get ota and update normally.

Question still firmware global 12.5.1 no update?

hey !! just got my mi 11 and love it ,i change my s21 ultra for it.
better screen and very much more smooth then the galaxy (my opinion)
my question is i saw thers a new firmware for global 12.5.3 but i still got the 12.5.1 why i didnt got the update ?
im from israel and got the global version. does it takes times to get the firmware ?
thx !!!

There is a Chinese version upgrade, but I think global is still 12.5.1.

go here:
[Firmware] Xiaomi Mi 11 [venus] [Auto updated!]
Xiaomi custom users face a problem with firmware updates. As there are many devices with no one to provide the newest firmware update every single release, and developers who provide updates to devices may forget or be busy sometimes, so releases...
forum.xda-developers.com
and update it yourself

the eu version is still on 12.5.1.0
welcome to xiaomi where a new device gets updates every now and than or maybe never

Whats in the new update that makes you want it?

I remember the good time with my pixel3, every begining of the month i had an uptade.

well you can have that experience (frequent updates) on your xiaomi by switching to xiaomi.eu weekly ROM
but surely not all of those monthly pixel updates were good? some of them had to have had annoying bugs which made the whole experience somewhat sour
stock phone hardware and software is so good now (for the most part) that there really is no need to update them so often (excluding the security patches)
just enjoy the phone as is - Mi 11 is blazing fast + feature rich and, at least I, find no need to have it updated regularly (especially after MIUI 12.5. update released recently)
the only feature I wish for on my Mi 11 is the option to choose 90Hz refresh rate in settings (without having to download 3rd party apps to do so)
120Hz is kinda overkill and just drains the battery much faster - 90Hz would be a happy medium between 60 and 120Hz on offer in MIUI

12.5.2 is out.

What is your Build Code ? 12.5.1.0.RKBEUXM ? or 12.5.1.0.RKBMIXM
If you have EUXM it's a EEE/EEA (European Version) and it's actually the lastest build.
If you have MIXM it's a Global (International Version) and actually 12.5.3.0 is the lastest build.
So depending yourRegion Code, you can download the Fastboot ROM and install local update easily.
My Mi 11 Claud White was EUSF (because an EU custom by my carrier) and i have unblock Bootloader (waiting 168 Hours - [1 week]) and migrate on MIXM Glabal International for have more recent update.
I have tried also Xiaomi.eu ROMS (Chinese ROMS custom / Translated) but thez have a lot of bugs (MMS don't work, Black Theme issues, Theme Manager in Chinese / Google Translate, Some Google Apps unstable like Phone)

Question 12.5.20.0.RKDEUX

Hello good people,
was trying to install new version 12.5.20.0.RKDEUX manually
but it will not install doesn't pass 0%
thanks

I installed 12.5.20 manually as well. No problems, but I updated from 12.5.16, not from 12.5.19. It's strange, becouse 12.5.20 was published earlier than 12.5.19. There was no 12.5.19 when I installed 12.5.20.

can i install Xiaomi 11T Pro Global on my m11 t pro

Just casually looking through post's on this forum I gathered that you've changed release branches from STABLE to BETA by installing 12.5.19 as it is a EU BETA release number. It won't let you update as it's not really an update to the software you currently have on your device. And it means nothing that it says stable in your device info panel. That's just how Xiaomi does things. You can flash .20 through fastboot but you'll most likely have to format data to not end up in a boot loop. You'll be back to STABLE branch but with the phone basically reset to stock. At least that was the case with other MIUI devices I've done this with.
Always read carefully what and how to flash when you decide to do so, to not end up bricking your device.

Xiaomi push the beta version to all 11T Pro?
The last OTA update I got is 12.5.19.
I never change settings to beta branch.

No they don't but it's a logical conclusion. As antykat said the next update from 12.5.16 in stable branch of EEA ROM is 12.5.20 not 12.5.19. There's a thread by yshalsager on this forum with MIUI Updates Tracker. You can see the update history for 11t pro there and 12.5.19 is marked as beta release.

Hello. I bought mine two weeks ago and came with EEA 12.5.19 out of the box. Downloaded 12.5.20 recovery rom and updated without any problem.

Question Can RN10 Pro SKFINXM Firmware be Installed on RN10 Pro RKFINXM Devices?

Hello guys, my device is Redmi Note 10 Pro India (RKFINXM). There has not been an MIUI 13 firmware update for RKFINXM devices but MIUI 13 update is present for SKFINXM devices. For this, I'm stuck on backdated rom. So, I was wondering, whether it is possible to install SKFINXM or SKFMIXM firmware on RKFINXM devices.
Note: Both SKFINXM and RKFINXM share the same codename i.e., Sweetin whereas the codename for SKFMIXM devices is Sweet.

Redmi Note 10 Pro India (RKFINXM) have a Miui 13 A12
https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/sweetin/

First, your device's codename is called "sweetin" because it was manufactured in India. Meaning the ROM you will have to download from the shared link above is MIUI 13.0.5.0 SKFINXM. Make sure to download the Recovery Rom. After that, open the updater in the settings, find the Install Package option and find the zip file you just downloaded. It should update to the latest MIUI 13 build. SKFMIXM build is for the Global version meaning it is incompatible with your device. Updating to it will cause major issue like battery drain and camera tint so be careful when choosing the file.

So basically what you are saying is that I can flash SKFINXM rom on a RKFINXM device, right?
The dilemma I'm facing is that there are two different version of roms (SKFINXM & RKFINXM) for the same codename 'sweetin'
