No. If you have a china rom and you flashed global rom or xiaomi.eu rom, you will find yourself in a screen 'System is destroyed' and only service centers are able to fix that.

I mean after successfully flash unable to relock? Leave its unlock forever?

If you have a global phone with different global firmware, yes. if you have a China phone with a Global firmware, no.
So what firmware was originally on your phone?

Then no, you have to leave it unlocked or you will brick it. Good luck!

Yes. You will have all global updates over OTA.
Don't know why to lock bootloader, it's gives you a lot more freedom.
btw you will have to wait a week to unlock it, after sending request for permission.

Try to read this :https://forum.xda-developers.com/Mi-9/help/eea-stable-global-stable-t3916135 , the only thing I know is that EEA is made because of some Euroupe laws.

EEA or global

Hi,
I don't remember if i have a global or a EEA device. Now i have a custom rom, but i want to revert back to stock.
Is there a way to know if it's an EEA or global device?
Thank you.

You can put your IMEI into an online IMEI checker, which should tell you what region that phone was registered to.

I think the most important acronym in the firmware. EU. Flashing the RKBEUXM should therefore not be a problem. Even without the bootloader unlock. OR only means that provider-specific functions are built in. If you don't know them or are unimportant, the XM works just as well.

You think i can flash the rom without unlock my phone because it's the same base ( EU ). i must use flash_all.bat ?

If you had to unlock the bootloader to flash the XM, I wouldn't relock again. That would surely lead to a brick.

Hello! Can you tell me what method you used to do it? I have a Mi 11 lite 5G, the ROM that came from the factory was a Vodafone EU and I changed it for a Global EU ROM, specifically this one: renoir_eea_global_images_V12.0.8.0.RKIEUXM, but in the process with My Flash Tool the bootloader had to be open, now I have this ROM working perfectly, but I want to close the bootloader to use Google Pay etc. So I am very interested in your method to achieve it.

Don't relock your bootloader with EU rom. Your chinese phone will be bricked.

How to relock (didnt flashed anything)

Actually l unlocked Mi6x bootloader but didnt installed/flashed anything. I later learnt about ARB so I decided to just relock it and don't want to mess with it it has China ROM and hardware is also Chinese. How to re-lock it?

Question Does ota update works if i flash global on Chinese device

Just ask this because i don't really want to brick my phone.
Nope,since you cannot re lock the bootloader and must root it to have a certified device.

To change version, use Mi Flash (does not lock the bootloader).

Normally yes, anyway the bootloader is unlocked and in case of problem you can use Miflash to recover the phone.
EEA have restrictions, notably maximum sound volume.
