Xiaomi MI 6X in europe?

Hello everyone. First of all, I apologize if this topic is not in this section, since I am new to the forum.
I write because I'm considering the purchase of a Xioami MI 6X. I live in Europe, and I know that this phone is a Chinese version. As it is not yet known if the international version will come out (Xiaomi mi A2), I decided for this phone. Why?, because the design, processor, memory, etc ... I know that the REDMI NOTE 5 is very close but I still prefer the MI 6X. The question is, since I live in Europe, and this phone goes with a Chinese version, how difficult would it be to put an international ROM ?, that is, given that on the xiaomi website the international ROM of this phone does not exist, I can install a ROM of any other phone? or it is imposible? And second, is it so serious that it does not have an 800 band for 4G? I have seen that the phone have the other two European bands for the 4G, but not the 800.
Thanks.

The only European store avaible are in France and Italy but they don't have that version of the phone for the moment and maybe they will put it in the future because is recent, for the band this are the supported band: Quad Band (850/900/1800/1900). Becuse isn't avaible the 800 band I suggest to change the model to buy for another from the same producer but with the features that You need it.

Hi,
For this phone it exists a translated rom from xiaomi.eu for each european language, I'm french and I'm not yet decided to buy this phone but I think I will. 290 Euros 6G 128G red version.
Xiaomi.eu uses chinese developper version, debloat it, add playstore and many features.
Updates comes to your phone through OTA weekly the most of the time!
It's very easy and fun, each week an update.
As the phone is updated weekly the phone seems to be more stable with this rom than... Stable global rom! ahah!
To install the rom you have to unlock the bootloader and install TWRP.
The most difficult is to unlock bootloader if you haven't xiaomi permission for your MI account. I had to use a browser trick with a chinese proxy to obtain this permission but you have to do this only one time for your account and can unlock three phones by month. For each new phone, you have to wait 3 days after linking a phone to your MI account in order to obtain authorisation to unlock the bootloader of the new phone.
[Edit] For the 4G problem, it isn't a real problem and sometimes it's an advantage to not have B20 (800Mhz).
In France, I live in a little village without 4G, most of small towns around me have the 4G with the B20 only. I've got a MI5C (withoutB20) and a MIA1 (with B20). The phone without B20 is more efficient because in small towns it turns automatically in H+ or 3G and I've got a very good connection whereas the MIA1 is in 4G with a very bad speed because all people are connected in 4G!!!!!!
When I go in a bigger town I've got 4G without B20.
Conclusion: Without B20 the internet connection is better because you don't use the same antennas as all other users!!!!

Aliexpress Global store has 6x global versions with B20 here

That model also shows FDD-LTE Band 4. Seems like a typo. Only mi 6x listing that has band 4.
Unless there really are different mi 6x versions/models.

4G should not be a problem
Now the A2 and the A2 lite will soon be available in Europe. I would recommend getting one of these devices. - You will pay a bit more, but You will get warranty. Nevertheless, I recently bought the 6X for my GF, she does not mind MIUI, which is the major difference between the 6X and the A2. You can get the 6X from China, and flash an xiaomi.eu ROM, and it works very well.
The major concern about 4G should not bother You that much. Check what bands does your operator use and support either on their website or on wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks_in_Europe
if Your operator uses only B20, then the phone is not for You - the A2 should support it, tho.

Hi,
I am looking for your solution but does the xiaomi.eu ROM support well OTA common update and major MIUI version update through OTA ?
Thanks

Mi 6x stable in Europe
hi guys, I've bought a Mi 6x in China in May. (128GB/6GB on stock English MIUI 9.5.15.0) It's stable in Europe, almost 100% on 4G, because one of the bands is missing it switches to 3G in certain area's. I like the phone but want to turn it into an A2, haven't found out how to do that. If anyone knows, please let me know.

Hello, thanks for your info, I have recently bought a 6X and I would like to switch to french, could you please let me know if it's possible and how , I am an amateur in this field

French is not available at the moment, the only European language available is English currently

You can search at xiaomi.eu there You can find muli-language transtated roms, and I would say regular ota, plus beta miui builds.

Hi to all
Do anyone flash A2 rom on mi 6x?
Is it possible?
Please share your experience...

i do. already two weeks for daily use and its ok. but i dont know if its OS run fast or slow because my previous phone was iphone 5c with ios 10.3.3 and the far i can say is the OS Android One 8.1.0 is not slow like i feel the same with ios 10.3.3

According to the thread on miui.com OTA updates doesn't work. It also bricks you device if you have anti_roll 4

true but...

Question MI 11 Ultra Chinese's Version QUICK help please

Quick help please
Im trying to buy it here in UK MI 11 Ultra Chinese's Version
What is the difference is it worth it
Can i install global firmware on it
Will i get 5G on it im using UK network
Thank you

https://www.wondamobile.com/mobile/xiaomi-smartphones.html. You pay no import tax with wonda.
You will need to unlock the bootloader to change ROMs to other. That takes 7 days. If you want global, why don't you search more local? Then you won't need to unlock the bootloader?
Yes, 5g works but depending on your network and availability. Check your supplier in your area and check the band's available on the phone for fullness before buying.
I'm in the UK, can't get 5g, none around me but 4g is dam fast. I am using the Xiaomi EU ROM, it's a custom ROM based on the Chinese but fully Google and safteynet supported. Pop over to the Xiaomi EU forums for more info.

Question Rooting possible? Oneplus 10 pro 5G/10T 5G

Hello everyone I live in Canada and I use a Koodo network (part of Telus wireless). I am Interested in trying a oneplus phone because I came from a samsung galaxy s8 and in Canada mine is boot loader locked. My s8 model # SM-G950W and it seems like many sources say its not possible to root. I am interested in a one plus 10 pro 5G (https://www.oneplus.com/ca_en/10-pro) or a newly released oneplus 10T 5G. Are either of these phones rootable? And if so, has anyone done it? Is rooting stable? Does it have many failures/bugs/errors? Can anyone confirm which oneplus device is best for rooting and is rooting partially done or fully rooted?
Many thanks!!

skip oneplus. it's not worth the hassle. buy a s22 or pixel instead

You seem to support oneplus in your signature and also, in north america s22 ultra, s22+ or s22 seems to be bootloader unlocked, alot of them are im not saying all of them but most are. Should I wait for the next pixel 7, pixel 7 pro or revert back to pixel 6 and pixel 6 pro ? Thanks for the info

Pixel 6a is worth? As 6 and 6 pro not available and not supported in India.

Get the Motorola p90 pro.
I'd even look at the nothing phone 1 if you could get it, looks great, uses a 788 SOC I think, plus it's cheap and that glyph lighting is brilliant.
Rooting shouldn't be a problem but there won't be many if any custom ROMs.
The pixel 6 does have a couple of custom ROMs but they're far and few between the days.
I couldn't recommend a Sammy device as the bloat and weird convaluted OS is just horrific.

If you have the global or eu OnePlus 10 pro then yes you can go nuts with unlocking it and rooting.

do you know op 10 is also sd 8 gen 1?
my op 10 pro and samsung tab s8 ultra are both sd 8 gen 1 and both rooted

from what region did u buy those devices from ?

Also what is the model version for your rooted oneplus 10 pro ?

Question Which phone do I have?

So I purchased a Redmi note off eBay a few days ago. The seller believes it's a 11se, but I think it's just a 10 5g.

It's OK. Compare models on https://phonedb.net

Chinese 10 5G is the same with 11 SE. Xiaomi just updated design and selling it as a new model.
