Sorry if this is a silly question but can someone list out why someone would want to unlock their BL , and flash a mi note 10 rom?
I ordered a CC9 Pro that is supposed to come with all official google support (according to the seller). i DO need to have:
-Google pay
-Google playstore
-Gcam
Can I stay with the original CC9 pro firmware? I don't want to tinker too much since i've read some horrible stories of a bricked phone here...

I don't think you can use Google Pay on an unlocked phone. Something to do with security.

I'm not sure going to Mi Note 10 firmware will bring any benefits.
CC9 firmware has call recording built into the dialer, you'll lose that feature if you switch to Mi Note 10 firmware. I think you'd lose more than you'd gain.
What features do you want to gain?

Thanks, as long as I can use the 3 i mentioned, I"m fine with CC9 pro then..
I really dont know what features i COULD gain with a mi note 10 actually. is there a place to read up the differences?

Mi Note 10 comes with stock camera app, not GCam. I don't know if it's different to the CC9 camera app, but I doubt it's noticeably different to most people.
Mi Note 10 has Google dialler as oppose to CC9 which has MUIU dialer. MUIU dialer has extra features like call recording built in.
Mi Note 10 has Google Pay and it works as fine, I've used it myself.
I'm not completely sure if the CC9 works with Google pay or not, you could maybe try this out on your phone? Though I'm pretty sure that a phone with unlocked bootloader wouldn't work with Google Pay.

You can't use gpay on an unlocked phone with stock ROM. You would have to install TWRP and flash xiaomi.eu. It's a modded MIUI ROM with pre-installed Google Services + working Google Pay.
Hello,
I’ve an issue unlocking the POCO X3 Bootloader. Please help if you can.
Below are the device details:
• Model – Xiaomi POCO X3
• MIUI Version – 12.0.2
• Android Version – 10
Below are the things I have done:
• Setup Mi account with my SIM Card option
• Turned on all Sync options available – Notes, Contacts etc
• ‘Find my Device’ is also working
• Mi account is successfully added to the device from Mi Unlock Status page
• OEM Unlocking & USB Debugging, USB Debugging (Security settings), Install via USB.. these options are enabled in Developer settings
• After this on connecting the app to Mi unlock tool, I’m able to sign into the Mi tool, after clicking on unlock, it goes to 99% and then throws this error.. couldn't unlock please add your account in miui settings
• I have also tried factory reset, and I have also tried making another Mi account with another SIM card.. the situation is still the same.
Please advise!
Under developer options there is a section where you need to add you Mi account details. Have you done that?
There isn't an Indian variant for POCO 3 NFC yours is Poco X3, it's another phone.... Sorry

Are you sure you did it? It is 2 options below the OEM unlock option in Developer section. You have to use mobile data only and you have to receive an ”your account is bond to your device” (or something like this) message.

I was waiting for someone to create a thread. I am also facing the same issue while following all the steps and it saying "Added successfully. Mi Account is associated with this device now.".
Mi Unlock Tool throws an error at 99% and complaints the device isn't bound to my Mi Account.
Also, one more interesting thing I have observed is that instead of a device name in Mi Cloud like "Redmi 5", it shows "M2007 J20CI" which is not Poco X3 ?
I have tweeted ( twitter.com/vasanthdevelop/status/1318798136987430913 ) to Poco about allowing us to unlock the bootloader and releasing the kernel sources.
i am also having the same issue device is added sucessfully to mi account over mobile data but mi ulock tool gets stuck at 99% saying bind your mi account to device.

Poco X3 NFC aka surya model number is M2007J20CG. On the other hand the Indiana varient aka karna model number is correctly M2007J20CI. On my international model it also displays my model number instead of device name in MI Cloud so that is not the issue I think.
Try use mi unlock tool mod version or old version.
There is a bug with trying to unlock Karna (indian version)'s bootloader.
A fix is apparently coming, I'd suggest you join the poco x3 official group on Telegram, and you should be able to get updates.

I tried joining a Poco X3 Telegram group where they just made fun that I couldn't unlock the bootloader ? is there another group? Could you give me the link to join the group? ?
This is now resolved I believe
Yes karna bootloader bug seems to be fixed
My karna got instant unlock 2 days back (probably because I tried to bind account almost a month back)

I also still can't unlock it. Did you unlock? I'm on latest 12.0.5.0 and have same error. Is Xiaomi/Poco aware of that problem? Did they respond somehow to it? Somone mentioned any reason? They promised launch day kernel source realase (another story) but what is the use of it bootloader is locked? Pathetic
We should spam this people to make themb do something with that
I have read that the indonesia version of the ROM for Poco F2 Pro is more stable than the EEA one.
I also read that the indonesia version has the call recorder.
Are there any other differences? Network management type?
Thanks.

Use the INDO V12.0.4.0 version which is super stable
I am now on INDO V12.2.2.0 and it has many bugs, GPS does not work, recent app, battery discharges fast ...
I will return to INDO V12.0.4.0 and disable the update so as not to update.

Will I lose anything by going from EEA to Indonesian ROM? Like bands or languages or anything?
I'm in a process of unlocking the bootloader and downgrading from Android 11 to android 10 and I'm wondering which ROM is the best. I think a call recorder is a nice feature to have. I had it in my Zenfone 6.

I'm using a very strict banking app and I'm afraid they wouldn't like each other. Many users of my bank's app complained about that, but their developers always know better. Sometimes it doesn't even work with stock ROMs on some devices stating that they are rooted.

The main reasons why I'm going back to Android Q are:
the full screen not working in A11 (status bar always visible),
phone not streaming audio to the car head (stopped working after upgrade to A11)
and annoying animation when minimizing an app and going to the home screen (can't be switched off)
Are these bugs fixed in the eu ROM?

Couldn't find the answer there, thanks anyway.
I guess I'll stick to the stock Android 10 ROM, so the question still stands: what is the difference between Indonesia and EEA ROMs except for the dialer and message apps?

Edit: Just installed the 12.0.4.0 Indonesian ROM, all seems to be ok
good afternoon, i did try to unlock the bootloader of two devices I bought and unfortunately i was unable to. i watched a few videos regarding the unlocking, downloaded the unlocking app and the waiting time doubled after my first try.i must have done something wrong but i dont know what. the only thing I am wondering is if i have to leave the sim in the device while im waiting for the 7 day period for example? have any of you got any suggestions and would you guys mind helping me and guide me step by step on what to do. i dont understand much and this is my first try. the poco f2 pro is with two SIM cards and the global version 12.2.5.0(rjkeuxm) and the redmi k30 is again with two SIMs with 12.1.6.0(rgicnxm)
thank you in advance

Hello,
anyone managed to enable any kind of call recording on Poco X3 Pro? I see there is no Indonesian firmware available at the moment, i hope it's only temporary and they'll release it soon, anyone got some information in this matter?
It should be possible to make your system read write able using my script and then simply replace the stock phone dialer apk with the Indonesian one. I'm pretty sure even the X3 NFC one would work on the X3 pro.
@lebigmac
thank you for your reply, however i think that flashing indonesian firmware was way more straightforward and it was possible to relock your bootloader after flashing it. How about your script? is there a possibility to lock BL after messing with system apps?
You mean relock bootloader after making system r/w ? This could be possible. If you're lucky the system will still be r/w afterwards. Nobody has tested this yet. You would be the first person in the whole world to test it.
Yes it's probably easier to simply download Indonesian firmware and extracting dialer app rather than waiting for some random person to upload Indonesian dialer app for you
To be honest i wasn't thinking about extracting the dialer app. I've flashed the Indonesian firmware on european version of Poco X3 NFC and all the functions i need work just fine. I hope there will be the same option will be available for the X3 Pro, if no i'll have to return it, because native call recording is an must-have for me.
Could you please send me the link to the Indonesian firmware (for X3 NFC or X3 Pro)? The version doesn't matter. Thank you.
Please find the link below:
POCO X3 NFC (surya) Indonesia (ID) Fastboot & Recovery ROM | XiaomiROM.com
Xiaomi POCO X3 NFC (surya) Indonesia (ID) official ROM, include stable, weekly and beta MIUI firmware which can be updated with Recovery and Fastboot …
xiaomirom.com
there was even an XDA topic regarding the call recording in Poco X3 NFC.
Does Indian firmware also contain call recorder app or only Indonesian one?
I've been using Boldbeast Android Call Recorder which I purchased through the Play Store a/b a yr ago after switching over to Android 10 and it has been working like a charm since. Just be sure to follow their instructions

I'm not sure, in case of Indonesian firmware there is an MIUI dialler app and built-in recording works very well.

Hey, i've dont it on my Poco X3 NFC, that's why i hope it will be possible with the Pro version also. Someone said that you have to be careful with flashing older version of firmware over the recent one (there's something like AntiRollback protection level), however on Poco X3 Global and Indonesian firmware were labeled in different way (version numbers weren't the same). Maybe someone more familiar with the subject will be able to tell you how it is with this ARB?
Can anyone with Indian firmware confirm there's an call recording option?
Another option is flashing the Xiaomi.eu ROM, which has call recording builtin, within the dialer app.

I was able to manually install the Indonesian stock messaging app into the European stock MIUI. I used my systemrw script to mount system as r/w and simply copied the app folder to /system/priv-app/
I tried to do the same thing with the Indonesian dialer app but without success so far.
Have you tried the India ROM? in my old Redmi Note 8 Pro (came with Europe rom) I installed the official India ROM and then relocked the bootloader withouth any problems, I'm like you I like the native call recording possibility, without losing the security that only the locked bootloader provides.
In the poco x3 pro, I'm still waiting 98 hours to unlock the bootloader to test other roms, so please take my words with a grain of salt, I have 0 experience in the POCO. BTW it's India ROM it's supposed to support native call recording, at least in my experience with RN8 pro.

Google dialer has recorder, but will notify the other side when recording.
MIUI dialer has recorder without notifying other side, but may not be in EU official MIUI ROM. Indonesia ROM and Taiwan ROM has MIUI dialer.
MIUI has either MIUI dialer or Google dialer, so should have record call by default.
Hi all,
So I am interested in buying a Realme GT Neo 2, however I will likely buy the Chinese version as it is easier and chaeper for me to find and purchase (Aliexpress).
I see most stores say they will open the box and flash the Global ROM for you before shipping. Not sure how true this is, but anyways...
I wanted to find out if with the Chinese ROM, does it have the same issues as Xiaomi / Redmi with the Chinese ROM where when the device is locked you do not get messages.
For example, with the Redmi Note 11 Pro (Chinese ROM). If I am using Whatsapp or Telegram, it works fine but once I lock the phone after a minute or so when the phone is in sleep mode I do not get messages or any whatsapp / telegram calls.
I have to unlock the phone before those messages are downloaded and come through to my phone - is this the case with the Chinese ROM on the GT Neo 2?
If so, will this be fixed by flashing the Global or Indian ROM? I know with Xiaomi, if you flash the Global ROM then this is no longer a problem. It seems that the Chinese ROM for Xiaomi is very aggressive with how it manages apps when the phone is sleepings or when the apps are running in the background.
This is my main concern and the only thing stopping me from buying this phone now.
@KD6-3.7 Maybe you can give me some advice, you seem to have a lot of knowledge with Realme and the GT Neo 2.

I do not know about that kind of screen off issue. But my Indian Variant one has no issues whatsoever. [ edge lighting is also great! ]
TBH, the neo 2 with Chinese Rom is getting frequent updates + it has access to the RUI 3.0 Beta application.
Whereas the Indian market users of neo2 are stuck on an update which is 2 months+ old...
Also, with chinese rom, you can unlock the bootloader! No such thing as of now in global/Indian ones...
So it is on you entirely, if you want updates faster or not. Also, from what i have seen, MIUI CN usually is always better than the buggy global one. Not sure how realme works.

Alright thanks.
MIUI CN is great, just the way it handles apps in the background / when phone is locked is a problem for me. No Global ROM for the Redmi Note 11 Pro, only expected sometime in Q1 so I had to sell mine unfortunately. My girlfriend has the Redmi Note 10 Pro, global ROM and works as expected.
Tempted to pull the trigger on this Realme, thinking I might ask the supplier to flash to Global ROM just incase. I imagine they'd need to unlock the bootloader and I could always flash back to the Chinese ROM to play around with if need be.
I just cannot afford to have a phone which does not allow for IM apps and their messages / calls to come through when the phone is locked.
This will be my first Realme device, so not familiar with how they work and do things.
If I am able to flash between the various ROMs, I might even flash to the Indian ROM if that has newer updates compared to the Global ROM.
I assume Indian ROM & Global ROM are quite similar and both have Google Apps and English as a language?

Indian is, i think global only, heh.
Also, i dont think that you will be able to unlock the bl once global rom is flashed, although i can be wrong.
If you do use google applications, then yes, you indeed need the global rom.

Hmm, I was thinking and hoping that the supplier will unlock the bootloader, flash the Global ROM and then the bootloader will remain unlocked for me to flash the different ROMs as I wish?
It seems there is really not a lot of info available and most people who are on forums and using these phones seem to be using the Global or Indian version and not the Chinese version - which so far seems to be able to do more and has newer updates.
I can order the Chinese version and ask them to not update to the Global ROM, but then I run the risk of maybe still not being able to unlock the bootloader and having a phone I cannot use properly.
If I can get confirmation that Realme does not have the same issue as Xiaomi do on their Chinese ROMs then I am more than happy to stay on the Chinese ROM.

Hmm, I was thinking and hoping that the supplier will unlock the bootloader, flash the Global ROM and then the bootloader will remain unlocked for me to flash the different ROMs as I wish?
It seems there is really not a lot of info available and most people who are on forums and using these phones seem to be using the Global or Indian version and not the Chinese version - which so far seems to be able to do more and has newer updates.

CN variant will always be ahead in terms of updates.
As for your supplier, he will lock the bl. He has to, cuz if he doesnt, then your play store wont be certified. He will flash and lock most probably.
you can i think ask the seller himself about such stuff, he knows much more , heh.
Im currently using GT Neo 2 China varian rom.
Maybe this is my first time using Realme UI, so some of my problem may not really a problem
Here are some of my experiance for using China variant rom
1. A lot of China bloatware, most of it can be deleted
3. Unable to backup system setting, sms, call log at google account. It will showing error. You may need to backup your data to the realme chinese cloud. Contact and Calender are able to sync with google account.
4. Some of the banking apps are unable to set your device as digital otp token (maybe will fix later)
5. Cloned whatsapp have notification issue. It solve after reinstall.
6. Play Store will not automatically searching new updates and scan hamful apps. It require manual clicking.
7. Unable to use Google Location History function (it not affecting google map fuction)
8. Unable to trasfer my old phone data to new Realme phone using Phone clone app. (maybe have bug for phone clone app)
9. Great battery life. Apps are not allow to run in background by default. (i'm not sure is it Realme UI default setting)
10. High frequency system updates. You may check the latest updates news at Realme GT Neo 2 China Community.

Actually is depend. If you very rely of Google ecosystem, the China variant rom might not your best choice.
So I have not pulled the trigger yet and was wondering what the latest software is on the Global ROM vs the Indian ROM?
I am wondering whether I should speak to the seller and see if they cannot put the Indian ROM on for me instead of the Global ROM as I may get updates sooner than on the Global ROM?
I assume the Indian ROM works fine with apps running in the background and when your phone is locked you can still get Whatsapp & Telegram messages and do not need to unlock your phone in order to receive those messages like with the Chinese ROM?

我用的是cn。
我得到的唯一问题是 CN 应用程序，但您可以卸载/删除然后使用 ADB 或手动卸载，呵呵
这就是为什么CN版本是所有版本中最好的！

Hi all,
So I am interested in buying a Realme GT Neo 2, however I will likely buy the Chinese version as it is easier and chaeper for me to find and purchase (Aliexpress).
I see most stores say they will open the box and flash the Global ROM for you before shipping. Not sure how true this is, but anyways...
I wanted to find out if with the Chinese ROM, does it have the same issues as Xiaomi / Redmi with the Chinese ROM where when the device is locked you do not get messages.
For example, with the Redmi Note 11 Pro (Chinese ROM). If I am using Whatsapp or Telegram, it works fine but once I lock the phone after a minute or so when the phone is in sleep mode I do not get messages or any whatsapp / telegram calls.
I have to unlock the phone before those messages are downloaded and come through to my phone - is this the case with the Chinese ROM on the GT Neo 2?
If so, will this be fixed by flashing the Global or Indian ROM? I know with Xiaomi, if you flash the Global ROM then this is no longer a problem. It seems that the Chinese ROM for Xiaomi is very aggressive with how it manages apps when the phone is sleepings or when the apps are running in the background.
This is my main concern and the only thing stopping me from buying this phone now.
@KD6-3.7 Maybe you can give me some advice, you seem to have a lot of knowledge with Realme and the GT Neo 2.

I am CN that this is not the case, there are several options in Settings-Notifications, one of which is to receive messages and reminders and display them on the lock screen, if not, then it is probably because the process of app has been forcibly stopped by the power protection system, to solve this problem, just select not to optimize in the battery optimization interface. The relevant solution may also be in the long press of the icon in question-Application Details-Power Consumption Management)

Well its the whole packed up rom. Depends on how it was compiled.
Interesting
I have Chinese version too.
I think the only deal breakers that i have with the Chinese version are missing notifications and bloatware. I am not sure how it works but it never delivers notifications on time, either they are delayed for 5-10 minutes or hours
I flash global version and really happy with it. Gpay doesn't work but my bank app does
