Mi8 Change ROMS

Hello
I bought the Mi8 from China this summer and I decided to unlock it so I can try a few roms ( Xiaomi eu , Pixel 2 Port , Lineage etc. ).
The phone came with Global ROM and unlocked via the unofficial method . My friends advised me to install China Developer MIUI 10 8.8.31 then lock the bootloader and unlock it via the official method and I am waiting 720 hours . In about 10 days the unlock procedure will be finished .
So can you explain which roms can I install ? I will install for now the Global Stable 10.0.2 but I am not the biggest fan of MIUI so I will want to install the Pixel ROM for example in the near future but it's on Android 9.0 . Will I be able to return to MIUI 10 Global Stable with Android 8.1 from any Android Pie ROM or Xiaomi eu ROM ?
Thanks a lot !

Hi, what procedure did you follow to relock the bootloader?

I downloaded China Developer 8.8.31 Fastboot ROM and I flashed it via MiFlash and chose "Clean all and lock" .

Hello,
I flashed 8.8.31 china developer on my Mi8 with relock bootloader and I ended up with endless flashing. I think I bricked my device. The phone booted to Mi Recovery in chinese. Anyone help please

can anyone explain why should you lock and unlock with official method? I find this advice in several places, but noone was able to explain why.

If you have unlocked Mi8 it means the seller unlock it unofficial by using EDL method . So that means you can brick your device very easily . If you bought it from China you need to install China Stable/Developer and lock it . Then unlock officially with your account then the phone will be less likely to brick if you know what you are doing .

I was on MIUI Global 10.0.2.0. I rebooted into fastboot and flashed 8.8.31 fastboot china developer rom with MiFlash and "clean all and lock". The phone booted into chinese Mi Recovery without MiFlash finishing procedure. I couldn't use MiFlash again because the bootloader was locked. I tried Mi PC Suite in chinese and tried to recover my phone but it didn't work. I think maybe ARB bricked my phone. I don't know for sure. I had checked arb before with getvar and the result was "FAILED" so I was confident ARB was not present on my phone. When the phone booted in Mi Recovery in chinese... there was no text saying "This MIUI version can not be installed on this device". So I had not installed a global rom by mistake on my Mi8 china device. I don't know for sure what went wrong. Anyway, I unbricked my phone with an edl authorised account I bought at S-unlock and now I'm on china stable rom 10.0.5.0 and I am waiting 15 days to unlock my bootloader. If anybody might have an idea what might have gone wrong please share your opinion. Could it be the USB drivers on Windows 10??? I don't know.

damn, i really have no idea what went wrong. you pretty much did everything by the book and this shouldnt happen. do you remember if you ran getvar anti before or after flashing global?
im asking because as far as i know, official xiomi software should return anti 1 from day to present day. variable unknown suggest reseller tempered with bootloader (to unlock?). but when you fastboot flashed official global it should rewrite everything including bootloader so after it should return 1. i could be wrong on this because im still looking for any real info on this topic. but if you open any fastboot rom tgz and look into flash_all.bat, there is a line thar sets anti to 1. so it should be there from day 1. thanks again for you feedback, lots of people are flashing back to china and locking because other people say it is a good thing to do. your case proves it might not be such a good idea.

I ran getvar when I was on the global rom 10.0.2.0. I never got the chance to install TWRP or any rom on my Mi8 because I wanted to link my account to the bootloader first. When I opened the phone from the box It was on MIUI 9.6 and I updated to MIUI 10.0.2.0 via OTA and while I was using this version I ran getvar and then continued the flashing

Fake global

Hi.
Unfortunately, I bought a k20 pro in the global version (aliexpress).
What do I have to do to not have brick? log in to mi account on the phone and Install the original china rom in mi flash and tick Clean all "option (not lock). Then wait again for the unlock bootloader?
having a global rom from aliexpress I can flash twrp right away and change rom ? Non Brick?

Basically the trick is to make sure you never accidentally relock the bootloader.
This normally happens if you've stuffed something up and need to flash a fastboot ROM. When this happens ALWAYS remember to change to 'clean All' when flashing with the Mi Flash Tool.
I assume the bootloader is already unlocked. If so, then you're 7 days ahead of the game and can go ahead and install TWRP and any other ROM of your choice. As long as you do everything correctly then you should have no problems.

The only one I have to remember is that if I wanted to block bootloader again, I have to do it on china rom?

Yes you can install TWRP and change the ROM.
The normal reason to flash a Chinese fastboot ROM is when you have done something wrong and soft bricked the phone. But yes you would also do this if you wanted to lock the bootloader again.

I was in the same boat. Just flashed the official China ROM via mi flash including bootloader relock. After I applied for an unlock the official way, waited a week to unlock the phone again and finally flashed twrp, magisk and mi-globe Rom.

Wait, so you had the 'Global rom' model? Did they leave the phone associated with the Mi account originally? And where did you buy from?
Just curious because my 'Global rom' model K20 Pro arrives tomorrow. Unfortunately ordered the day before all this stuff came out :/

Sorry if this is a bit newby, but I ordered the same (K20 pro) from ali express, there is no way the global rom is official?
If it's not and the bootloader is unlocked, why is this a problem? Because the find my device won't be working? or is the security compromised if it is?
Is the global rom worse than the Chinese? And if the phone isn't disconnected form the Mi account they used to unlock the bootloader with, arn't I screwed?
Sorry for the salvo of questions..

At the moment there is no global version of the phone. So there is no official global ROM. The global ROM versions currently for sale are using a hacked/modified versions of MIUI. These versions are made by people unknown and could possibly contain malware, etc. which could compromise your security. Probably, the ROM will be OK, but you just never know.
Having the bootloader active unlocked isn't a problem normally and gives you the benefit of not having to wait 7 days. You can flash TWRP and install other ROMs with no problem.
But there are a couple of cases on these forums where people have had things go wrong whilst flashing a fastboot ROM using the Mi Flash Tool. They have ended up accidentally relocking the bootloader whilst also corrupting the system partition. Because they haven't unlocked the bootloader themselves originally, they are unable to unlock the phone again and can't install TWRP to install another ROM.
Some people are now choosing to flash an official ROM and relock the bootloader, to allow them to unlock the phone themselves with their own Mi account. So if they end up in the same position as above, they should be able to unlock the bootloader and easily restore the phone.
However some people, when restoring the phone to stock after messing up, have accidentally relocked the phone. When they've tried to go through the unlock process they have found that the phone is still linked to the sellers Mi account and they are unable to link it to their own account and so are unable to unlock it again.
If you never relock the bootloader, either accidentally or deliberately, then you will not have any problems. But if you end up needing to flash a fastboot ROM, then the Mi Flash Tool default option is to flash and relock, so it only takes a brief lapse in concentration to find that you've got a locked bootloader again. If this happens, I would guess that it's far more likely that you won't have any problems and you are able to unlock it again.

Just be aware that this option also comes with risks. Occasionally some people have found that the phone is still linked to the sellers Mi account, they are then unable to ink it to their own account and so cannot unlock the bootloader again.

Thank you very much for help. I have read both but unfortunately i can not UNLOCK my bootloader… when i was trying to unlock the bootloader through MI UNLOCK, it says "Current account is not bound to this device". Otherwise if this was succesful and i could unlock it, then it would be easy i believe.

Since you locked the boot loader, you'd have to flash (with fastboot) using the same flavor of miui which was installed. (example: chinese or eu variation), otherwise you won't be able to boot.

Yes, that i understood… There was EU variation with unlocked bootloader, which i do not know why, but okay…
But now i can not unlock it, it says, when i try to unlock it though fastboot with mi unlock, it says "Current acount is not bound to this device, ADD your acount and device in MIUI"s setting > developer options> mi unlock status.. but obviously i can not do it since i can not turn on my phone, its stuck on recovery mode.

I can help you
First of all you need chinese mi assistant
Second you need try three versions of roms(eeu , china , global) but im pretty sure that your phone is chinese version that bought from gray market and they unlock bootloader to install global rom
After you download these tell me, i guide you
Be sure download recovery rom (not fastboot)
It has .zip extension not tgz

If you know how to sideload the rom then everything is become okay dont worry
After successful debrick you must bound you mi account to your phone and wait for bl unlock then reflash with mi flash tool and global rom
AND DONT LOCK YOUR BOOTLOADER AGAIN

Yes, unfortunately i do not know how to sidload the rom... But when i have Chinese rom downloaded then what do i do with that? I connect the phone through mi assistant and there it can be flashed?

I had the same thing happen. You need to force a firmware flash ?
I had someone on xda recommend an excellent recovery tool.
It's called 'miflashpro'. It can be hard to find the English version. I did eventually but actually unbricked my Mi9 with the Italian version.
99% chance your cell can be fixed this way

bricked too
I'm having the same problem here, after wipe in twrp mode my phone restart and i'm blocked on bootloader screen.

I did the same thing with a Mi CC9 relocked the bootloader by mistake thinking it was like any other android phone. Did you have a Xiaomi account associated with the phone and signed into after enabling oem unlock in developer options.
If tha'ts the case you can use https://en.miui.com/unlock/ tool from where but it checks your phone number to see whether its associated with mi unlock.
Otherwise you will have to use EDL method which involves disassembling back of phone and shorting out two pins to initialize EDL data transfer but you need a EDL associated account this (belief xiaomi has revoked everyone access to these)

Hello all members.I had same problem and I open this phone with suport from youtube .I try clean some connector and worming cpu and motherboard. After change the battery with new. When close the phone they suprised me and working good.After 10 hours again close and bricked. I try sake and again open .So....the real problem its not CPU and motherboard but some connector dont touch good. Sory for my English. I hope some other find which connector have problem in this phone and pm me. Now my MI 9 working good but I keep bickerful ...

Question Flashed Indonesian Rom in Sweetin and relocked Bootloader😥😫

My friend flashed Indonesian fastboot Rom in indian RN10 Pro Max and locked the Bootloader, now he is trying to add acount and device to unlock it again but if fails everytime.
An error shows "Couldn't add. Device basic data verification failed"
Please see the attached screenshot.
Do you have any clue how to solve the issue?

you were should use only format data not all & relock.
There is three .bat orders:
one with erasing user data.
one with keep user data.
one with format and relock.
In your case you have to unlock it again.

Can't unlock, can't add account and device. Always shows the error mentioned in the post.

I had to abandon my previous xiaomi phone just for this reason. Accidentally locked the bootloader and couldn't unlock it ever. "The find device storage corrupted, your device is unsafe now".
Couldn't add miui account.

You did the same? I mean flashed another region's rom and locked bootloader?

I actually did worse. I was on non-miui Rom then flashed the Fastboot without unticking the lock option. Guess what though the sensors of my MI5 is all okay nothing works due to wrong persist file.

Could you please share how to flash? since bootloader is locked cant flash anything.

Maybe you did not get my point, we are stuck in another region's ROM with locked bootloader.

Try find Xiaomi repair support center and tell them to help you flash official Indian ROM for you.
You can boot into the system, and the device said it's locked and secure, so it's not hard brick. Should be fine for them to help out, if the warranty is covered under the policy.
Be prepared for data loss, so you need to backup what you want to keep.
Don't tell them you flash a wrong region ROM. Just say the phone seems a bit strange, so want them to help clean flash and update official latest ROM.
