16Gb is NOT a problem at all.
Can't comment on Windows 10, but I also faced similar problem on Windows 10.
Then I used Widows 7 on same PC, Flashed 5.6.11 ROM via MiFlash Tool and everything worked well. Give it a try.
You can use your friend's Windows 7 PC.
All The Best.

Can you able to enter fastboot ?
If yes then go with MIFLASH TOOL
or else If you have flashed any custom recover.
Then enter it and try to flash any custom ROM using OTG it will work

AT&T HOX Sense 5 update problem

I am from Israel . I own an AT&T HOX and can't get the OTA update .
I am using windows 8.1 64 bit and the RUU keep fail at the same time (Error 170/1) .
I don't know what should I do, I preffer to keep the stock ROM .
PLEASE HELP !
You probably need to find a PC with an earlier version of Windows, anything below Windows 8 should be OK. Windows 8 has no compatible drivers for fastboot.

Fastboot won't work with windows 8.1. You're gonna need either an older version of windows or some kind of virtual machine I guess

Honestly, don't bother, the chances of you getting fastboot working on 8.1 are so slim. You'd be much better off investing your time and energy into getting hold of a PC with win8 or below on it.

The same problem still persists even in Windows 10 Anniversary Update. The solution is documented in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-s/general/guide-fix-fastboot-windows-8-1-t2858337
I tested yesterday and it works (I made the registry change directly).

Be sure to using a small 1/2gb sdcard fat32 filesystem. If you still having troubles try marchnz [PX3 & 5] [OTG] - No Headunit Mod, recover or flash a SOM with a simple USB cable

Lumia W8.1 last version

Hi!
I'm trying to update my phone to Windows Phone 10, but first I have to update it to Windows Phone 8.10.14219.341 (mine has 8.10.12393), does anyone have the image to flash it to the last version of W8.1?? I tried with WDRT, OTC Tools, changing .reg, and so on,
Plz help.
I had the same issue . Do a factory reset using WDRT. Install with default features and wait for an hour. Make sure phone is on auto update it will be updated automatically to 8.10.14219.341
However after I upgraded to windows 10 the keyboard did not work so had to revert back to 8.1

Thanks but, I did more research about that version, it's called Lumia Denim, and as I understood the minimum firmware version is around xxxx.xxxxx.xx51.1xxx, but mine has xxxx.xxxxx.xx24.0xxx, I went to lumiafirmware . com and what a surprise, all the RM-877 models with "LTA" in the name doesn't have the requeried firmware, does that mean that with my carrier I can't install the last firmware without lossing my mobile functions?
If anyone knows how to tweak someway the firmware or something I'll be pleased.

Cannot upgrade to 12.5 MIUI

I have a Russian (thanks Amazon !!) Redmi 9a 32Gb/2gb. It is currently running latest 12.0.x ROM version, but i would like to upgrade it to 12.5.
I see on xiaomi ROM site there is currently a 12.5.x version for Russian version, but the OTA never arrived and if i download the recovery zip file and install it manually, it fails verification and stops.
Is there a way to install 12.5 without unlocking the bootloader ?
Is 12.5 supported on this specific redmi 9a ?
thanks !
mmm... spflashtool might work, but Ive only ever used it on a bircked device to unbrick it, never on a functional device to just change the ROM version, but if you really wanna do it without unlocking bootloader thats your best choice.
I will say anyway, its probably safer to unlock bootloader install recovery and install the rom from there, its your call tho.
Heres how I unbricked my device

Thanks
Right now I cannot unlock the bootloader, maybe in the next months I might try (I want to wait for the warranty to expire). My concern is that my version of Redmi 9A with just 2G of Ram is actually not compatible with MIUI 12.5. The 12.5 rom is actually available, but OTA will leave me in the 12.0 branch and verification fails if I try to install the ROM manually. I would not want to brick it by installing an unsupported ROM.
My phone model is M2006C3LG and the ROM I have right now says I have 1.8Gb of available RAM, I don't think you have a different device from mine.
Im a total n00b so I may be wrong about this next thing, but, I think the only difference is what version of MIUI they were sold with since the hardware doesn't allow downgrades further than the stock ROM that came with the device.
There is always antirollback after MIUI 10, but I think its even further locked for the original stock ROM that came to the device, but yeah, this is all my own speculation due to a bricking incident I faced.
The model number is the same, but the 9A was available with different sizes of RAM 2 or 3 or 4 Gb. Mine is the low end 32/2 which is the model still on sale today. If you still have 1.8 Gb of free RAM you very likely has the 3 or 4 GB model.
Maybe you are right, the OTA allows only for updates within the same MIUi version; I saw several guides on-line and i think i will try the miflash tool and switch to the global version. I have to find a way to unlock bootloader without Xiaomi account (no way in hell I'm signing up for that) and without sim card (this phone is used as a smaller wi-fi only tablet). There are some tools for an offline unlock, I will try those first.
It is incredible how Xiaomi is making it complex just to update to a stable official ROM; given also how much bloatware is shovelled with the stock ROM, I'm not sure I will ever consider Xiaomi again.

In my opinion, DON'T UPGRADE. I upgraded it with recovery and fastboot and my phone got an message everytime when I boot it : dm verity corrupted and I will need to press power button again to work. Maybe i didn't did that correctly ( I have Global 12.0.20 32/2gb)

Thanks for the info. So you upgraded to latest 12.0 without moving to 12.5, any reason for not trying 12.5 ? The phone is currently barely usable with Android 10, maybe Android 11 is even heavier, but why not give it a try ?
I saw several youtube videos and guides and by using MI Flash with a Fastboot image (scattered tgz) it should be a total reflash of the phone.
