Hello... Any one help me i have xiaomi mix 2s... I bought it from a store online.. But i came to know it was stolen... I am in china right now.. Now this phone has unlocked bootloader when i locked the bootloader to obtain OTA updated it stuck on system destroyed screen.. Then i downgraded the system to miui 9 then it was adking xiaomi cloud lock (FRP).. Then i go to repairing shop to solve this problem.. Now the phone is running on miui10 with unlock bootloader..

Follow the instructions installing twrp here
https://twrp.me/xiaomi/xiaomimimix2s.html
After that...installing a custom rom to your liking, should be easy

What will happen after unsuccessful flash?

It al depends what you are flashing. But if you can get to twrp still (recovery mode, hardware buttons power and volume up at the same time at startup), you can flash whatever you want

Mi Note 3 Associated With Another Mi Account

Hi guys
Bought my phone at AliExpress with Global 9.1.4.0 installed
I was trying to install Xiaomi.eu ROM when I found out that my phone is associated with another Mi Account, presumably my seller's, so now I can't go on with installation.
Is there any way to solve this?
Return the phone if you can.
it basically means that your phone was unlocked by your seller, global rom installed and then shipped to you... theres no way to undo this at least to my knowledge...

TWRP and root MIX3 Global version.

Hi everyone.
I'm just bought a new Mi MIX3, its global variant and pre-installed with MIUI Global 10.0.11.0 PEEMIFH.
I want to root my new phone so i can put some modification on it. But anyone can confirm that the TWRP, magisk version that work on CN variant work on my phone or not?
If not, what method should i use for root? I'm only need root atm so TWRP is not matter.
I'm not new to Xiaomi or android phone, just wonder because no global fastboot rom available atm, so i afraid cannot unbrick my phone with miflash in case anythings goes wrong.
Thanks.

Can't root global yet.
It's almost impossible to brick, If you manage it and somehow manage to not get into twrp then fastboot the Chinese one without locking bootloader.
Once that's done flash twrp, flash global zip again

Hmm, okay, since very little ppl here own global unit, i'll test on my phone with different method and see which is working for global variant.
Any idea where a global zip can be found?

I'm new to the world of Xiaomi, so I appreciate any help in this matter if you can!
Since you say that you can't root the global version yet, is it safe to assume that the TWRP that's available will definitely not work? I'm near certain it won't, but just want 100% clarity.
I just purchased a global variant of the Mi MIx 3 and am eagerly awaiting to root/install Magisk. I'm glad YouTube vanced and GCam doesn't require root, but I do want a center clock more than anything. If we get TWRP/Magisk to work, can I install the center clock module that's found on this thread without any issues? I hope there won't be too many issues with flashing modules between the global/eu/chinese versions.
Cheers! I can't wait for my Mix 3 to arrive.

I think root now works on phones that ship with global so just need to install twrp and flash magical. Just take backups etc.
Chinese to global seems to cause the root issue. Might be different now just not tested it.
Modules should work ok
After testing and research, this is the root tutorial for MIX 3 global edition, please remember that this is for global edition, not china edition. Please check carefully that your phone is truly global, not china with global rom pre-installed by seller.

I dont know, since i dont have any CN version to compare.
But i read somewhere that CN version can only run China and EU rom.

Not true because China Mix 3 run perfectly Global rom.
The problem is rooting that.
And afaik there is no difference between models. At least on system specs screen.

Welp, trying to get into TWRP has caused me to bootloop. I screwed up a thing or two and now I need to learn how to use MiFlash to somehow flash a Chinese ROM so I can get into TWRP to flash an EU ROM. I originally was aiming to flash an EU ROM coming from the global ROM, that may have led me to screw something up eventually.
I'm glad fastboot still works. Just learning of the world of Xiaomi now.. I have to admit, there's a lot I didn't know about EDL and what not. I'll be using the 6T until I can figure out how to get things back up and running I guess.

Don't need to use miflash, just reflash twrp and once in flash ROM and format data

Which ROM exactly? I mean.. I try to sideload the EU ROM and it doesn't let me. I can actually sideload Arrow or Pixel Experience but then get stuck in bootloop again.
Appreciate any help!

What happens when you try and install the EU rom by copying it to twrp then flashing it instead of sideloading it?

When you say ADB I'm assuming you mean fastboot command line as you don't need ADB for twrp.
All latest drivers installed and all usb ports tried?

Dont worked any of the advices. The only method i have seen is to pay a s- unlock account (20-30 $) but i certainly need a china rom, and dont exist any for the RN 6 Pro, so i guess i have a paperweight instead :crying:
Hi guys, i need to tell you that i could flash via MiFlash with succeed. The problem i have right now that the phone is in Bootloop, even if i Flash again with newest MiFlash version. I have to say that im unlocked bootloader, what you recomend?
Had the same issue. Went to the service center and they flashed it and gave it back within 15 mins
As i have read in the article from the link below, even for EDL you have to have account approval from Xiaomy (which is paid i assume)...

Well.... after thousand of tries, i could bring back to life my device, only flashing Beta Pie Official rom via MiFlash 2018528. Only thing is that i missed IMEI
I have also watched before (maybe a year ago) some clips on YouTube how to bring back IMEI number (procedure for entering number, you have it on the box of the phone if you still have it).
Hope you will resolve it soon.
I will download MiFlash 2018528 and try to flash MIUI 9 to mine phone... I have read that MIUI 9.6.10.0 have ARB level 4, same as MIUI 10.2.2.0 so it should be safe to flash back to MIUI 9 (really hope it is safe [emoji53])

Well...i was.flashing 9.6.10.0 through MinFlash tool, and after some 130 seconds, some error has been reported (Failed to write - somerhing like that) and I'm stuck on Fastboot... Same thing is happening when i want to flash 10.0.5.0 or even 10.2.2.0 which was there in the first place...
Since it's stuck in Fastboot, i hope i didn't brick it... I have sent it to a guy which is an expert in these things, hoping to resolve ot successfully [emoji53]

please Help - Stuck in recovery Bootloop after downgrade from MIUI 12 V12.1.4.0.RFDEUXM to MIUI 12 V12.1.3.0.RFDEUXM via update app

Hello Android-Wizzards,
i am stuck in a Bootloop to stock recovery mode since i tried to downgrade my mi note 10 pro from MIUI 12 V12.1.4.0.RFDEUXM to MIUI 12 V12.1.3.0.RFDEUXM via the update app .
After the OTA update to 12.1.4. i could not make any calls anymore so i searched for a way to downgrade to 12.1.3, where the problem was not present. I did it with the internal update app and followed this instruction: https://www.world-today-news.com/th...evert-your-xiaomi-a-buggy-update-xiaomi-news/
Sadly i didnt make a backup before anf after the rom finished installing it only boots to stock recovery anymore. If i try to connect the device via "Connect with MIAssistant" it does not work.
I searched the forums but i cant find a way to install MIUI 12 V12.1.4.0.RFDEUXM again.
The tutorials mention that if i want to recover my phone i have to use MIflash or fastboot flash which both need a unlocked bootloader according to the tutorials.
Sadly i did NOT unlock the bootloader when the phone was working normal and i dont see a method to umlock the bootloader an a bricked / bottloped mi note 10 pro.
Its bad enough that cause i didnt make a backup befor i tried to downgrad i must assume that all my pbhotos i took this year with my note 10 pro are lost forever, Mi cloud backup is full since last year and i didnt bother to pay for more space, another bad decicion in hindsight but is there a way i can restore my phone?
Please help, i dunno what else to do to get my phone booting up agian.
Had a simmilar problem with an older mi phone of mine a few years ago and then it wasnt a problem cause i could easyli flash it with MIflash, but dunno since when you have to unlock bootloader first and since i didnt know that my phone has a locked bootloader, never minded to unlock it.

Did you try wipe data with the recovery?
or try this old method.
Did you try to flash the rom in recovery again?
