Xiaomi Mi9 M1902F1A - Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I bought 3 years ago a new Xiaomi Mi9 M1902F1A with unlocked bootloader and global version installed. This model is a China version with 8Gb RAM.
My question is if it possible to relock the bootloader ( Global version remaing ) because some apps ( ex Google Pay ) not accept unlocked bootloader.
Thanks

Nope,if you lock it with this version of rom, the phone is bricked.
Root the phone and use Magisk.

Maybe you misunderstood.
If you root the phone and use Magisk, the play store will be certified and Google pay will work (normally).

I understood exactly. How many versions of Magisk stopped working and an update was needed . I know what is Magisk is and I know the challenge from Google certification and Magisk cheating. This is a never ending story. And you know why I stoped using root and Magisk. Because exactly when I needed moustly the Magisk stopped working.

Well, well, if you change your phone, check that it is compatible with at least a Xiaomi Eu rom.

Android Pay on rooted Mi Mix? Possible?

Hi Mi Mix fans!
Does anybody know how to run Android Pay on rooted Mi Mix?
I have tried Xposed + Rootcloak and it doesn't work...
Is there anybody who run Android Pay on Mi Mix with unlocked bootloader and root installed?
Even restore an app with the configured data doesn't work. After the app is started Android Pay clear the settings and want me to set up the payments cards again. Then after click on "Add card" it displays the message "You cannot run Andoid Pay on this device, because root...." etc. etc.
Any help will be very appreciated!

until we get kernel sources and are able to patch the bootloader with SultanXDA's safetynet patch, no android pay on root

Does SultanXDA also remove the other security requirements of android pay? Last I tried android pay it says, either I have unlocked bootloader, custom firmware or device is rooted.
Also, my company requires me to use MobileIron's suite of apps for email and such. It won't activate w/ Root and also usb debugging (WTF). If any of you guys are in IT and have the ability to recommend software, stay away from that POS.

I think you would need to hide root as well with suhide or an equivalent.
the unlocked bootloader is the most important piece here, once that's done the rest is easy.

I'm hoping AOSP would come out sooner or later and then I would "relock" my bootloader if necessary.

Thanks for the info. Seems it a bit long way ahead.
I come from Galaxy S7 where it wasn't an issue and I had unlocked bootloader with root, xposed etc. and fully working Android Pay...

I have not unlocked or rooted yet and Android Pay is not available. Did it work before you unlocked?

Sure I read will on work on stable China ROM,
Not always though Google signed the stable ROM but not Dev.
I'm on China stable just tried it and said bootloader unlocked, which is true.

Unfortunately I didn't try before unlock and root so I'm not sure it worked before...
Can anybody confirm it was or wasn't working on locked bootloader, please?

Did you check wasn't already unlocked. Even TWRP will stop it working, although I did read the last 2 stable ROM s it didn't work.

I had the exact same problem. it wasn't just google play. any NFC payment app would have the same or similar message
I got the phone with China stable rom, no root nor bootloader unlock. Android pay works fine.

Over on reddit, I was chatting with someone who was using Android Pay on his Mi Mix straight out the box but it was a vendor ROM. He flashed one of the official ROMs and it stopped working but that was because he'd unlocked his bootloader in the process.
After trial and error (and nearly bricking his phone), the conclusion was that it will work on the China Stable ROM, provided your bootloader is locked and you're not rooted.
I'm going to switch back to stable and re-lock my bootloader this weekend to see if it works for me.

Thanks for a quick summary. Let us know if this check to relock bootloader and installation China ROM works.

I got a feeling that it works only when Google had approved of the rom. When I flash the china stable when I got my phone, it was newly updated and hence not approved by Google yet.

Seems to have worked - at least it let me set up a card etc.
Just need to use it to pay for something for 100% confirmation but I doubt it'll be an issue.
Downside is, I'd forgotten how China-y the Stable firmware is after using the Xiaomi.eu ROM.
OK, final update.
The app works on China Stable up to the point when you try to make a payment, that has never worked for me - it simply doesn't interact with the POS system.
Android Pay was about the only reason to go stock, IMO. Given it doesn't work, I'll probably switch back to Xiaomi.eu.

Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Unlock security risks

Hi everyone,
I've recently unlocked my Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 that came with the chinese rom so that I could install the global rom.
I've been using it for a while and when I opened a banking app, I get the following message:
Warning
It seems your device has had unauthorized modifications to its operating system. Using this device for your banking could compromise the security of your personal information.
I didn't think unlocking the phone would be this much of a risk. I don't understand too much about the technology behind this so I wanted to see if anyone could explain whats happening and if I should refund my phone.
Thanks!

You are probably using the global dev rom which doesn't pass Safetynet for various reasons. You shouldn't have any issues with the global stable rom.
Don't listen to the guy above. Flash Global Stable ROM if you haven't already and lock your bootloader. From then on all will be good.

I said pretty much exactly the same thing as you?
It won't matter whether he uses Dev or Stable if his bootloader is left unlocked. He needs both Global Stable and a locked bootloader.

U don't need to lock the bootloader to get it to work, I'm on the global ROM with unlocked bootloader - safety net passes.
It also passes on Xiaomi EU ROM with unlocked bootloader. Just flash one of those ROMs, install magisk, and set magisk to hide.

I am running Miui 9 global with unlocked bootloader and rooted with Magisk 14.3 and it passes safetynet and Android pay works just fine.
Guys, I know this is XDA but come on. Guy just wants a working phone without the hassle. He didn't ask for root or methods to bypass Safetynet with Magisk! Locking bootloader on an official Global Stable ROM is all he needs.

You forgot to mention they also didn't ask for locking the bootloader either.
Do you really think someone who says this really cares about bypassing Safetynet?

+1, installing magisk is definitely the easier fix. Won't need to wipe data or anything
@ssojyeti2, locking bootloader doesn't wipe data. Stop spreading misinformation. Also how is it easier if you have to flash (or at least boot TWRP) and then flash Magisk zip? To lock BL you need to run one command (fastboot oem lock) and you're done.

Ssojyeti2 just clearly said that flashing magisk doesn't wipe your data or anything. Nothing about locking bootloader...

Well said. I just got my phone and it's on the Chinese rom. I'm not a rom/flash xda member and I'm leaving my phone on the Chinese rom and stock. Bloat removed or frozen already with a 1.5gb update pending for download tonight (a nice option miui gave me) and a smaller update installed as I switched on the phone. I intend to keep this phone for a few years and I'm not f*cking with anything.
Gapps installed and working perfectly, including contacs sync which was an issue at some point. I haven't tried nfc yet but everything works including irrelevant apps asking for nfc access (lol). Nah, I'll stick with the Chinese rom until there's a compelling reason to change it.

flashing eu rom

Hi i bought a Chinese version of k20 Pro with unlocked bootloader and indian rom installed. I've already got twrp and magisk installed. I use nfc a lot for payments and was wondering if i could just flash eu rom through twrp. Will it brick my phone?

Yes you can install it, no you won't brick the phone. Have a look at this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/k2...xiaomi-eu-rom-fix-gpay-t3946342/post79859363, the last part is for getting Gpay working, so may also be relevant for other banking apps that use NFC contactless payments.

Question Can I relock the bootloader to use GPay?

I had the Chinese model and flashed the EU Rom from this thread
Oneplus 10 Pro Global Rom India / eu
Can I relock the bootloader so I can use Google Pay or is this going to brick the phone?
Thanks

You don't need to...I use gpay and banking software whilst rooted and with mods installed.
Just install the universal safety net fix module for Magisk and systemless, click on zygisk as well.
Then you're done
Thanks for the replies guys but I really want a stock android with no root or mods. Just wanna know if I can relock the bootloader without bricking.

If you have root right now. You need to go to magisk and tap unistall. Then full uninstall. Phone will reboot. Just to be safe. Then you can lock the bootloader.

Question how to relock the bootloader?

hi guys ,
i want to make my oneplus 10 pro 2213 model back to store condition
how can i lock the bootloader?
i cant find any answer anywhere and im not sure if fastboot enhancer is the solution
my device is fully work btw
thanks
it's highly recommended that you don't do that. Most of the devices I've seen get brincked in that operation.
But if you wanna proceed with that, you have to flash the stock image back again, there must be no changed image (boot, recovery, system...).
And then you can run the command "fastboot flashing lock"
what about msm tool
anyway to do that with the tool ?
There is no tool current available to O10PRO, all there is require username and password.
A lot of people, myself included, are waiting for a msm tool so we can fix our devices.
OK
so if my bootloader is unlocked any problem for gpay ota ect?
It may not work .. Netflix doesn't work for example. Gpay as I don't use can't say for sure

No unlocking the bootloader will not effect gpay or any other banking app. Now if you are rooted then yes gpay and banking apps will not work. You will have to use Magisk to fix that.
Well I'm not sure

That could be the difference between the 2213 and 2215. I got my 15 from OnePlus carrier unlocked. That's the first thing I did was unlock the bootloader. Now my gpay, paypal and my banking apps all work. I'm not rooted yet I'm just waiting on a full rom update to get the boot.img. But I see that OnePlus is going to post oxygenOS 13 today. I might check it out. OnePlus has really done a number to the 10 this time. As for as Netflix I think there is a thread in here some place.
Hi guys
Anything new in the MSM tools?
Or maybe any other way to lock the bootloader?
look on GitHub for fastboot enhanced works really great as long your in de bootloader you can do every command with just a click i was thinking on doing that my self to but then i saw something's what i want to try out and there is also a fastboot ROM in the forums maybe that you help you too
Thanks !
I will read about that!
i have the same question.
I have a NE2213, unlocked and rooted and now want to sell it.
So my plan was to uninstall Magisk with all Modules, do a factory reset, update to NE2213_11_A.16 and then relock the bootloader.
since i am only rooted with stock rom - the only changed image should be the boot.img which will be stock after i update zo A.16.
Should be right, isnt it?
since my only other option ist to contact the support for a online MSM-Tool, which i need to do anyways when it does not work - i would give it a try...

Fastboot commands for restoring to stock worked for me.
OnePlus 10 Pro Fastboot ROMs (and how to make for any device)
First of all and most importantly, I want to say that this is not my work. This is a port of the work done by @abhinavgupta371 and @HELLBOY017 for the OP9RT. I merely made sure there weren't extra or missing files and edited the .bat and .sh...
forum.xda-developers.com
FYI - Was able to lock the bootloader on my OP 10T, A.06 Oxygen OS.
