So finally there's MIUI 11 officially announced in China. XDA recently provided the links to download recovery ROM based on MIUI 11 for certain devices here- https://www.xda-developers.com/download-miui-11-beta-now-for-13-xiaomi-devices-changelog/amp/
These ZIPs are chinese beta builds and my question as a xiaomi.eu 's ROM user is-
HOW CAN I FLASH A CHINESE BETA ROM USING TWRP WHILE CURRENTLY I'M USING XIAOMI.EU ROM?
Thanks in advance ;p
u don't. I tried them. they have anti-rollback feature. u will be stuck in them. u won't be able to flash twrp. fastboot will reject everything saying anti rollback hszghsjcklsj........ like something. I tried. my phone got bricked. but somehow fastboot was on and I unlocked bootloader then in edl mode flashed stock ROM. I must say that I was not able to access even recovery.
in short, the way to go back to using custom ROMs/recoveries are destructive and could brick ur device and u may not be able to recover it anytime soon.
So, I risked my phone and tried (that was the only option I had). Here's how to flash Chinese beta (or official MIUI) when your Xiaomi device is running unofficial MIUI like xiaomi.eu's MIUI or even a custom ROM-
Again HOW TO FLASH OFFICIAL MIUI CHINESE/GLOBAL ON A XIAOMI DEVICE THAT IS CURRENTLY ON A CUSTOM ROM
DISCLAIMER: THE BELOW MENTIONED METHOD IS WHAT WORKED IN MY CASE, I thought to help if someone needs help in this case because I didn't get any
Step 1. Make a backup of your data and wipe every partition (except Internal storage, USB OTG & SD card)
Step 2. Since MIUI has anti-rollback, you've gotta flash the recovery ROM with a lazyflasher like tool. (Lazyflasher didn't work at all in my case. So use Dm-verity disabler, Force encryption by @Zackptg5).
Note: You don't need this tool while flashing xiaomi.eu ROM or custom ROM. YOU DON'T!
Step 3. As mentioned above flash both zips and reboot to system.
Want to confirm before proceeding, I find this instruction.

Yes. I patched my boot.img with magisk, then flashed it using "fastboot flash boot_ab magisk_patched(boot.img file name).omg"
Caveat: I bricked my device like many others after unlocking the bootloader and flashing xiaomi.eu ROM. I had to have a authorized EDL account holder flash a factory ROM (in my case I had a China variant flashed with the Global ROM), after which I flashed xiaomi.eu latest stable ROM and then rooted it.
does google pay still work after root?

Seems it was an issue with setting the active slot in the installation script. Solution is described here and since then it looks as if no more bricks occur

I flashed it separately on the second attempt for 12.5.3. The first time I tried flashing the patched boot.img I was greeted with an error.
Hi! I have the latest xiaomi eu weekly installed (21.6.23) as well as unofficial twrp.
I would like to root the phone with magisk, but I don't understand a few things.
Magisk manager require patching the boot.img file from the zip firmware.
I can not just simply install magisk zip file in twrp to root mi11 ultra?
If not, I understand that I have to patch the boot.img- but do I have to do it every time I want to install update of the latest xiaomi.eu firmware?
The second question is about data.
Am I loosing the data by rooting the device by this method?
EDIT:
Ok, I managed. So those are the steps that I did:
I unpacked the boot.img from the xiaomi.eu firmware in my phone. Then I patched the file, and copy this file to the adb installation folder of my pc.
Later it's easy- usb debugging needs to be active in developer options, then connect your phone by the cable to your pc, accept usb debugging in your phone, start CMD in the adb folder in your pc and write the command:
fastboot flash boot_ab nameofthefilewhatmagiskgenerated.img
then
fastboot reboot
And done, root works. Data are untouched.
I did it easier, boot into twrp and flash magisk.zip done
Also I'm on official EEA firmware, with original stock recovery, so doesn't matter what rom you use. On xiaomi EU you don't even need adb because you already have twrp injected
Is there anything to worry about when you update the phone while having root access?
Is the following order right?
1) update Rom over twrp and delete dalvik&cache
2)flash magisk.zip again
3)boot into system
Right ?
I have the latest EU Rom 12.5.7...
Just take this bat with decrypted Star twrp 3.5.1
unzip and klick Install-Star.bat
fastboot boot star.img are the commands in there

Hello to all,
I tried 1 year ago to root my POCO M3 Pro 5G but could not succeed to install TWRP unofficial for this model because of the problem of non-existent recovery partition (see https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...oco-m3-pro-5g-redmi-note-10-5g.4474375/page-2) In short I bricked my device several times and then I had a boot with a weird screen that disappeared when I updated to MIUI 13.
Today I am on Android 12 MIUI global 13.0.3 and I would like to install magisk manager without the help of TWRP and I have the default recovery of MIUI with which I can not install anything.
I had also followed the procedure described https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...urself-and-optionnal-debloat-privacy.4337693/ but without success impossible to flash on A or B : error messages : too many links, the partition does not exist (see screen shot in PJ), no emulator etc
The bootloader is still unlocked
I would like to root my phone and use Magisk manager modules such as Skvalex without damage or install root apk with spyware and trojan.
Do you have any solutions for me?
Thank you very much for your answers.
ROOT GAINED !!!!
THIS METHOD WORKS on both: POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 5G hey guys.. wonderful news.. been trying here and there and IT WORKS FINALLY i gained root of POCO m3 Pro 5G ! i'll write in steps how it works and post all files i've been using...
forum.xda-developers.com
Ok tx I'll try this method and let you know
install magisk via fastboot is the easiest way for rooting. and more safe than using custom recovery. follow the guides with more attention. bad twrp can damage bootloader. bad flash of stock can damege device
i think the twrp have broked your boot, and i suppose u have flashed a wrong stock rom.
before made other damage, if can enter into fastboot: be sure to download right firmware. and flash it without relock option. if u dont do this, the risk is a serious hard brick. for who is not able to do a simply procedure like rooting, an hard brick is impossible to repair . be carefull
I have rooted my phone with magisk without any recovery, you just have to modify boot.img and flash it using fastboot.
I followed this method- https://www.getdroidtips.com/root-poco-m3-pro-5g/
Good evening
Thanks for your 2 answers.
I finally succeeded in laboriously rooting and patching on A and B but the modops on https://www.getdroidtips.com/root-poco-m3-pro-5g/ are incomplete and/or inaccurate. For example it is necessary to specify that it is necessary to download not the recovery version of the ROM but the fastboot version which is not underlined in the text of the link and other details of this type which avoid wasting time other example to find in the repertory the file of the patch.img even not hidden difficult to find even with the way and invisible via the directory of windows.
I have the root and I have installed modules on Magisk manager finally after the first attempt 12 months ago.
Cheers
On investigating the Xiaomi MI Flash tool there are 2 conflicting statements:
1/ Xiaomi MiFlash Tool is a flashing tool developed by Xiaomi Inc. This Xiaomi tool allows the users to flash the Stock MIUI 8, MIUI 9, MIUI 10 etc. all the older and latest versions of MIUI ROM on any Mi or Redmi Phone.
then
2/ The MiFlash Pro tool only supports devices powered Qualcomm Chipset.
As my phone has a MediaTek chipset I assume the Xiaomi tool will not work. In that case how does that affect the other tools like Magisk, do they support MediaTek chipsets?
I have unlocked the bootloader but I am now unsure how to proceed? Any help appreciated, I wish to install the stock global ROM over the Chinese ROM.
The official Miflash tool supports all Xiaomi, Qualcomm and MediaTeck devices.
You can also flash a Fastboot rom without using Miflash, use the .bat scripts included in the extracted folder of the TGZ file in Fastboot mode.

(IMHO) MiFlash Pro is no official tool, you don't care about chipset on official Xiaomi MiFlash.
So I flashed the pixelexperienceplus rom on my Redmi note 9 (Merlin) a few days ago.
Everything was working fine except the Volte on my networks were not working so I decided to roll back to the original rom (MIUI 13 stock) and flashed the fastboot Rom of it. It then showed sucess on the MI FLASH TOOL and device booted and stuck on the redmi logo and not going anywhere. (I have all the adb drivers and all installed on my pc as well as on the phone)
Did I do something wrong in my flashing process. How do I fix it? I'd really appreciate if you all can help me with that
Could you post the Miflash log?

Tried the above and again greeted with the sucess result but the phone is still stuck on Redmi Logo and not booting
Also before it was showing sucess even with long names and outside the miflash folder. But the phone was not booting
with the above method with shorter names and inside folder it is no difference for me.....
