Miui Beta Anti-Rollback Question - Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers

Does anyone know if the anti-rollback protection impacts all devices, or just the Redmi Note 5? I had flashed 8.7.5 and upgraded to 8.7.12 before I knew about these issues.

I think it's just Redmi Note 5. You should be able to check by running entering fastboot and running: fastboot getvar anti
If it returns 3, we're good. If it returns 4, then the anti-rollback is implemented

I was wondering if only devices with locked bootloader are affected or it does not matter?

It should be just RN5, as other devices were not mentioned.

When I run this I get an error saying invalid variable

Some people on this thread are saying the last beta (8.7.17) seems to prevent them to flash TWRP.

"For anyone who encountered the non-booting issue on MIUI 10 8.7.16 or later, please try this:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Xh...RpHQw-TdhVYgei
This version is built with kernel from 8.7.16. If this worked, I'll release a new version after the next MIUI dev version release.
This version does not contain the vibration fix, so vibration is not working."
it is working, I have already used it

Can we flash this via twrp?

i tried flashing android 7.0 beta with twrp, ended up in a bootloop
I'm currently experiencing a flash issue as well.
I usually run MIUI EU but I can't find a solution to flash it to my 4X.
I've tried every TWRP I could find and I also tried every single release of EU MIUI for the 4X, I always end up with a missing partition and a force close as soon as I boot my device. However I had no idea latest 02.24 was based off both Android 6 and Android 7, that is probably why I'm facing this missing partition issue. Do you guys had a similar experience? Any advice you can share?
Thank you
EDIT: I'm quite sure the EU ROM is based off Android 7. It will work like a charm once I restore the China Dev based off Android 7.

has anyone tried flashing this via TWRP and Flashing SuperSU after?
this step has worked for me when they leaked the Mi Max beta rom based on Android 7
but I think Redmi Note 4X has some stuff that needs to be dealt with for this to work.
coz, I have also tried Mi-Globe ROM, cannot boot peacefully into the system. always error in UI.
unlocked BL, flash twrp and other stuff to no avail.
I'm planning to buy the redmi note 4 snapdragon version available in India in the next sale on march 8, and was wondering if anyone here could tell ne if they have the beta version of the nougat based MIUI running on their phones(snapdragon ones), and if yes, whether it is a daily driver ir not. Screenshots would be very helpful

I'm in the same situation as you but I've tried to flash MIUI EU instead.
I've tried every possible combination of TWRP and MIUI versions but I had no luck so far.
I think MIUI for the 4X is based on Android 7, but I've tried both Android 6 and 7 versions but I always get the same issue after boot and I can0t even set it up.
Please advise!!!

Currently I'm on miui 8 7.3.2
thats for the fastboot flashing. but these other roms needs 3rd party recovery like TWRP. when you start flashing NOte 4X with 3rd party recovery. things get messy. no TWRP can crack the inside of the device to install new system. i dunno the proper term for that. *lol*

It doesn't say anything about nougat.And if you consider that mi2s is going to get miui 9, a phone that definitely not gonna get nougat is in the same list with redmi 4 prime you can't assume anything, only that is going to get miui 9.All these sites that reproduce the fact that is going to get nougat are making the same mistake you guys did assuming miui 9 = nougat.Don't have high hopes, we may get android 7 but for now we can't be sure.

Still can't see that they mentioned MIUI 9 will be on nougat based on your link
Going to say it right now, I don't think we'll ever get official Nougat. Xiaomi always cripples their best "bang for the buck" products. We have a very well built phone with great performance and battery, having proper updates increases the phone's value, which is something they don't want to do right now when they released newer, more expensive or otherwise less valuable alternatives (like the 4x).
MIUI9 will be launched 26th July!
First devices will be MI6 and HMNote4X... Other devices will be released in batches later..
Note: Its change of MIUI version, not Android version..!
Every device with our MIUI8.6 will get our MIUI9 also..!

Oreo Beta EMUI 6 feedback

As most of us have not been able to partake in the Oreo Beta program it would be nice if we could get some feedback from those lucky users that were able to get into the beta program.
Have you been able to unlock and root the Beta firmware?
What problems have you had?
Which new features do you like?

Unlock yes, root no.
Going system root might work. Systemless will be tricky as the boot partition is split into a ramdisk partition and a kernel partition. And some files that used to be in ramdisk could be in /system now, I haven't investigated much (this is the case with OPO3 Oreo).
But I like Oreo so I hope Magisk will work with it in the future.

Thanks for the feedback.
Well I only need root to get rid of garbage app Huawei and other vendors install. In any case I can't imagine that SuperSu and Magisk won't figure it out.
I joined the beta program maybe 8 days ago got accepted but still waiting for the update to come on the phone....

I downloaded the Huawei Beta App here:
http://consumer.huawei.com/en/support/fut/
Have applied, according to the app I am 4/500. The App looks very professional and well-designed. Looking forward to trying out Orea early, bravo Huawei. I'm not a rooter etc, will be using as a regular heavy user.
I rebranded to L29C636 from L09C34 a few weeks ago and just applied for the Australian Mate 9 Oreo update. Was 5/500, get in quick people
I am on Oreo since a week approx. and I am experiencing a limited responsiveness of the touch screen, especially on the bottom part esp. when navigation bar is hidden....anybody else making this experience?
Currently downloading B321a for C432. Going to check if I can get magisk working and if it's like OPO3 Oreo where stuff was moved from ramdisk to /vendor...

I now have root on my android o. It is emui 8 not emui 6.

I have no problem with android o so far. However I have not used all features available with android o. I do not really care for the new features of android o or emui 8 (picture in picture, hide navigation bar, floating dock,...). In fact I like the settings of the emui 5 better.

Yes, for whatever reason there is no 'a' mentioned under build number. The a is in the internal Huawei build number so FunkyHuawei shows it like that.
Under further review, the phones do report the 321a to FunkyHuawei's server as the installed version regardless, so if you finished the install it is 321a. Nothing to worry about.

Android O for C636 exists, but it's an older version from September, branded as EMUI 6, before they decided to make it EMUI 8. Probably newer beta one coming soon. There are new ones for C900 (hw/normal) branding, Latin America branding, Russia branding... I just haven't released them.

I didn't install it yet, just downloaded update.zip and those. Mainly to check vendor image without installing it...
Edit: oh, duraaraa already answered
I got all the three Oreo files too via the HiSiute method, since even with a correct DNS setting, wherever I could stick it I got "Package information download failed". Installed via the HWOTA successfully though. The Oreo test build is quite buggy when it comes to Wireless tethering and LTE speeds. Feels much slower then my N European 194 build so far. Shows "Phone Overheating" a lot too, something I never saw on my N build either. Have yet to see how long the battery will last. See few differences in the camera, maybe added zoom in raw mode. Still no Monochrome Raw, or 1080p Timelapses.

MIUI 10 Global Closed Beta Leak

http://bigota.d.miui.com/8.6.14/miui_MIMIX2SGlobal_8.6.14_9cc38e37db_8.0.zip
This ROM was leaked in the MIUI Forum. The one who leaked this has his post deleted.
Even for the beta team this ROM has bricked one device, so, do it on your risk.
Booted perfectly flashed with TWRP on mine. Thanks.
Could anyone test SafetyPass and GPay on this beta? Of course with Magisk installed. I'm wondering if this functionality has been fixed with this build

I just flashed and Wifi is not working. Is this happening to anyone else?
EDIT: Looks like I didnt update firmware. I used MiFlash instead and its now working fine.
So whats the benefits besides it being MIUI 10. From what I have been reading not much. Just trying to do a cost / benefit analysis on upgrading...

There are a few themes on the theme app that have lock screen notifications. These are old themes so they cause other crashes though.

It’s probably a programming item in MIUI 10... plus the fact that no themes made for 10 with notifications exist yet (or are very limited). My notifications light works so not a big deal. We’ll see what the next release gives us... I would assume they will try to drop a new beta weekly or bi-weekly. Haven’t been following how fast the China releases came out. Did anyone also notice or maybe it’s me... notification shade doesn’t change either with theme?

By the way, the android p version that you have flashed is a beta version and rather outdated. I'd suggest you to flash LineageOS as it is much more stable and functional.
