I have a spes which has no NFC, I want to install custom aosp roms but im not sure if i should flash global rom. I'm worried cause global rom has nfc afaik.
In short will flashing global rom to spes cause anything bad?

Spes also has Global ROM, both, spes (without NFC) and spesn (with NFC) comes with Global ROM, so probably you already have a Global ROM, unless you have the Turkish, or Indian version.
The NFC versions has a slightly different firmware for Russia, Europe or Indonesia.
Anyway, you don't need to flash a specific ROM, to can flash some AOSP based custom ROM over.
Every custom AOSP based ROM work for both; spes, and spesn.

It's safer to stick with vendor and firmware that match the phone, so China in your case.
Use the latest TWRP from mauronofrio.

Thanks, I will flash the China firmware
Hi all,
First Xiaomi phone should be arriving in a few days, currently on a OP6T.
Looking to flash a new ROM being from the UK and need to run mobile banking apps and google pay. Also wanting to debloat the apps associated with the CN version.
I understand I need to unlock the bootloader on the device - that's fine I'll do that ASAP.
My query is... Which ROM is currently considered the most stable and user friendly for UK users? I've seen there's the .eu version based on the CN rom, the global ROM, EU and EEA roms?! Just a bit confused which one to go for. Not too fussed but would enjoy updates OTA.
Thanks in advance!
Hi dear.
You can flash latest global rom Fastboot ROM through Mi Flash Tool or flash xiaomi.eu (custom ROM)
Thanks for your reply. Is the global ROM best for UK? What's the difference between the global ROM, EEA ROM and xiaomi.eu ROM?
Can i put with fastboot the CN ROM V12.5.3.0.RFACNXM in my EEU mi 9?
There are problem about?
I just did it. It is a bull****. Chinese everywhere, no google services...
Switched back and waiting for something global
If you want to use the CN ROM, just use the Xiaomi.eu ROM from their stable branch
Hello everyone
I have a simple question out of curiosity. I have a global version of a Mi 11 Ultra that cane with a preinstalled MIUI 12.0.1.0 global ROM (RKAMIXM). After unlocking the bootloader I firstly installed xiaomi eu of which I was very disappointed and then moved to the official EEA firmware on MIUI 12.5.3.0 (RKAEUXM) which is my current Daily driver. I would like to know since my device came with a different global rom if the use of the EEA firmware may create a compatibility issue in terms of internet bands and connection speed and in that case if you recommend to move back to original global (which now is available in version 12.5.2.0)

The EEA and Global rom is virtually the same. The reason you can't flash the EEA and then flash the Global is because of anti-rollback code in the flash-all.bat file of the roms. Remove that (usually lines 4-11 in Notepad++) and all roms, regardless of version are flashable. So you can actually try and see which one you like best.
Are you sure I have to do this? Because I flashed EEA 12.5.3.0 over Xiaomi EU 12.5.7.0 without doing that. Did anybody tried both EEA 12.5.3.0 and the new global 12.5.2.0 and tell me the difference?

There's literally no difference Between the EEA and Global rom. The MiFlash tool usually gives someone an error code because of the anti-roll back section in the <flash-all.bat> file when a downgrade is attempted. If it was successful for you, Congratulations! However, it wasn't successful for me and the rom wouldn't successfully complete the install until I edited the script.

Why then the two versions? Which version do you use? I am curious to try the global and see if there is any improvement over the EEA I am using now (especially for 5g speed), even though the one I am using now is blazing fast, but on the global changelog it says performance is 20 times faster (now this might be true already for the EEA version I'm using now)

The reason there are two versions is that they use different radio bands in Europe vs in other areas for example, so the radio bands may be slightly different. Adverts for that region may also be different. I am on T-Mobile here in the US and am running the Xiaomi.eu rom, which is based on the CN rom with Google services baked in and all Chinese bloat removed. This rom (weekly) has many more features that the EEA and Global rom doesn't. Such as the ability too use the rear display for video, which you the EEA and Global doesn't have as yet.
Well I am more interested in the efficiency of the 5g here in uk and what woukd be the best rom. I feel like my stock global was slightly better than this EEA I have now. I might format and flash it to check it out. It's just annoying every time you have to flash you loose all of your data and progress. Still on my current rom I am doing some debloating testing for idle battery improvements
Like I said, it's basically the same with some minor changes specific to the region.
I think I have to try it out myself if I want to be sure

EEA 12.5.6, I expect to come next week or the following to global
Can I flash official rom from one to the other one?
NO as far as i can see their is no difference but no you cannot flash china rom on global phone or global on china it wont boot
I tested the global and EEA global rom in china device and can be used normally
There is, chinese version (cammelia) has dual rear cameras while global version (camellian) has triple rear cameras.

This is nice to hear that. I flashed my M2103K19C with Indian ROM version (POCO M3 Pro) as it is also Camellia, but it did not boot. Then restored back to Chinese one. If you assure this works I will try as well.
i think that with bootloader unlocked it's possible. maybe the camera will not be fully function (in my case it's not a good idea flash china over eea). boot i'm quite sure phone could boot. many european users have buyd online china device, and converted to eea flashing official firmwares
