Hello

You can use "MTK Extractor" to extract system.img and other files, you can then modify them, and flash them using "SP Flash".
I recently uploaded a clean stock ROM (LEAGOO_T5_OS2.1_E_20180116) to Mediafire and Needrom.
I've also uploaded a carepack if you are interested in the new ROM, or even for a custom.
The command for fast boot is: fastboot oem unlock

Do you mind sharing please? I'd love to get a working custom rom on this device.
I still can't add links yet, so you will have to Google search: "MTK Extractor". Download it, and then download the latest official ROM, which I have uploaded to Needrom and Mediafire, Google search: "OS2.1_E_20180116".
Extract the "system.img" file from the stock ROM using MTK Extractor, you can then go ahead and make your customization's. System apks are signed and locked, however they can be replaced.
When you have finished, you can use MTK Extractor to create a new system.img file with all of your modifications (including root, if you add it). The size for system.img is 4096mb.
The MTK Extractor tool uses a slider bar and text input for the partition size, the slider is limited, however enter 4096 into the text box (don't delete the text, it bugs).
Enter fastboot (Power + Volume up), third option, then using ADB with command prompt, type the command: "fastboot oem unlock", and then accept.
Now you have unlocked the phone, you can run your custom ROM. In a factory locked state, ROM's will install, but not run.
I forgot to mention my Needrom pack contains MTK Extractor. If you can make roms, there are 3 stock bugs that I would ask you to fix.
1: If the navigation bar is hidden, there is a window transition blip (bottom of the screen) if you swipe to recent apps.
2: If you select the first (bottom left) icon from the lock screen (voice, usually), you get a grey background.
3: Bluetooth scanning sometimes bugs (MAC instead of name), once paired there are no issues.*
* This may be due to my headset, but I remember my TV also displaying a MAC once.
Also, can you align or remove the 4G icon that shows even with data turned off.
Ok... So far this thread seems to be the only one on xda-dev about leagoo T5, which i just buy.
By the way thanks Ferather for pushing the rom on need rom.

Need help
Hi, could you please share the Mediafire link?
Since the last rom update (LEAGOO_T5_OS2.1_E_20180822 aka OS2.1_E_20181025) I post on needrom a moded rooted boot with magisk.
i have this leagoo t5 running this newest e_20181025 but im getting a problem with my front facing camera only displaying like an upsidedown image of the rear camera. please advise on what i can do to fix this
Maybe inconsistence between differents partitions (like boot and system)
If you know what you are doing I will advise reflashing all principal partitions.
But i don't think the phone came like this when new, so someone must have messed something.

LEAGOO_T5_OS2.1_E_20181025.zip -- Original Leagoo T5 ROM
LEAGOO_T5_OS2.1_C_20181025.zip -- Custom Leagoo T5 ROM
No issues, other than the one I have mentioned, which is just an app default.
Enjoy!
hey cool rom bro.
Thank for sharing.
No problem, I thought I would start the ball rolling for customization of the rom, since adding ringtones does not work with the stock rom (media storage app issue I think).
You can permanently edit the rom yourself, which I found very easy. If you want to add apps, simply install them from sdcard or store, then navigate to "/data/app", you will find your installed app or update, with odex files and libs, if any.
I created a temp folder on "/data" called "Working" and copied everything into it, and then setup the correct permissions, and renames, and transferred to either "/system/app" or "/system/priv-app", depending on the app.
A better way to do it, is to use "Lubuntu" from live USB or DVD, and then mount the image and edit it as root: "sudo *file explorer*", in this case "sudo pcmanfm-qt", then create a folder in "/mnt" called "ROM".
Next copy "system.img" to "/tmp", and mount it "sudo mount /tmp/system.img /mnt/ROM", now you can do whatever you like, but make sure to "chown" and "chmod" all your modifications.
Make sure you delete anything you will replace when you transfer, else you might get old unused files (folder merged and non-replaced items remain).
----
If you make edits on the phone using an app, and want to make your own "system.img", use the readback option in "SP Flash Tool".
physical_start_addr: 0xe000000
partition_size: 0x100000000
----
Note: Most non-stock apps *do not* support the triple (3x) camera setup, and will either use the wrong camera or crash.
Yeah I encounter problems too to add custom ringtone and wallpaper but i manage to get over it by changing some files permissions
By the way I am "456456" on needrom, the boot img with magisk is from me
I know the time needed to make a custom rom and I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one trying to mess with this not-bad-at-all cheap phone
There is a possibility of an Oreo port, there is a Leagoo T8s with the the same chip that runs Oreo 8.1.0. I have checked over the rom and it looks possible (based on my basic knowledge).
Cygwin + Cmder, for Android. I made the pack myself, and thought it might help others using Windows who want various Linux tools.
I added Cmder for better console support and easy admin: ---- http://www.mediafire.com/folder/lzsf7xd2wwsm4/Commander
Quick update, will now self configure "/home", added ADB and Fastboot.

Hi, Running your ROM with no other mods, it's certainly better than original. Just curiousis there anyone working on an Oreo based ROM ?. ... J
Thanks, I did not manage to get the Oreo from the T8 to function, due to hardware changes.

Hey there, I own a Mi5S Plus with MIUI Stable 9.2.1 (based on Android 7.0).
For a bug that gives me a terrible battery drain (3 hours of screen usage tops) I decided to install Lineage OS 15.1.
I've got last version of TWRP (3.2.1-1), Unlocked bootloader, the phone has ben rooted.
As explained on the official guide:
- Factory reset with TWRP;
- Install *.zip file with last LOS update, positioned in /sdcard/
- Returns ERROR 7, I do exactly as suggested online
so:
- I delete “assert” strings from “updater-script” file and I zip it back up;
Here I have 2 different outcomes:
1) Invalid zip file format (I used both OSX and Win, using both native apps and third party ones);
2) Missing file “updater-binary” even if it is right in the zip.
What if, being the string after “assert” referring to a specific MIUI version, the problem is due to my installed MIUI version? It makes no sense, I know.
Here's what I'm talking about:
ui_print("Target: Xiaomi/natrium/natrium:6.0.1/MXB48T/V8.2.4.0.MBGCNDL:user/release-keys");
What should I do? I've tried them all!!!
I had the same problem installing the AospExtended 5.3 and I solved flashing the 8.1.4 modem.

How to install MIUI 12 onto Xiaomi devices?
Download the MIUI 12 OTA update or Recovery zip file from above.
Transfer the update zip to phone storage in the root directory. Meaning, outside every folder. If that doesn’t work, place the file in the folder ‘download_rom’.
Launch the updater app on your Xioami phone. Or go to settings > about phone > system updates.
Click on three dots on the top right corner and choose “Choose Update package”
If “Choose Update package” option desn’t show up, tap on the MIUI icon several times and check again.
Select the MIUI 12 ROM package from phone storage.
Your phone should reboot and update process will begin.
Once done, reboot to system.
Note: Don’t stop the update once started. If stopped, you will need to do the operation again right from downloading the firmware file again. This will not erase any data in your phone.
wait for eu version coming soon ?

Thanks for posting.
I returned my phone to stock by flashing the latest global fastboot image in MiFlash. My bootloader is still unlocked.
When I try, it says "Can't verify update. You're allow to flash the newest develop version published by MIUI forum from stable version only". (spelling mistake theirs).
Would I do better flashing TWRP and flashing it from there?

I flashed it via TWRP and it worked fine. Visually, it looks the same as v11 to me.
I wonder how stable the v12 .eu betas will be. I only just got my device, so I've been flashing AOSP ROMs. I was going to go with the latest .eu, but I might wait until the first v12 beta .eu is released before I set it up.
I posted a mini review of MIUI 12 on the Whirlpool forums, so I decided to post it here, too. In a nutshell, I'm not a fan of the direction Xiaomi is taking with MIUI.
--
I flashed the MIUI 12 beta build from yesterday on my Mi9 Lite. While Realme made RealmeUI more stock-like than ColorOS 6 was, Xiaomi appears to be moving MIUI in the opposite direction. I didn't mind MIUI 10, but I didn't like MIUI 11 so much. MIUI 12 is worse than ColorOS 6.
These screenshots are with the display size changed from the default of 392 to 411 to make things smaller, but you'll notice that the text is still large, and very bold. If I reduce the font thickness, it reduces the overly thick headings in the various menus, but the smaller text becomes too thin.
You'll notice the quick settings have been replaced by a near full-screen control centre, which, in my opinion, is worse than any other UI available. Luckily, there's an option to disable the control centre. I've included a screenshot of this toggle.

MUI 12 Beta all Devices
Hi guys,:good:
MIUI 12 Beta for all devices in MIUI.eu posted today :fingers-crossed::laugh:
Downloading right now (globe rom version).
Anyone tried yet?
edit:
Okay, installation is done. Here are some first impressions:
- First boot took quite long, almost thought I had a bootloop.
- I needed a second reboot, as the new gestures weren't working right after reboot
- Some animations (especially sending app to background by swiping up = hombebutton) dont feel as smooth as in MIUI 11
- Instantly disabled the new control center. Honestly looks like a cheap iOS rip-off
- I couldn't find those new "planetary wallpapers" with the zoom in effect that were mentioned in some news about MIUI 12. May be that's because it's xiaomi.eu rom
- New camera UI looks quite nice
That's it for now. Will update if I find any problem etc.

Hi ! I got a Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G from someone who couldn't use it since it's a chinese model that doesn't support Google services. I unlocked the bootloader and installed Xiaomi's EU ROM but this phone isn't Google Play Protect Certified so I can't get apps. I'm sorry guys for this newbie thread but I'm a bit confused with my next step, I could try another OS but Google might remain inaccessible, maybe someone have some experience with this model or know what else might work ?
Thanks for any insight you might have !
Use Yalp Store instead of Googe Play Store:
Yalp Store (Android)
Download any of Google Play's APKs

U could try installing a custom rom that comes with gapps
Don't know if it's gonna work but it's worth a try
As far as I know, for the stock rom of this model, you just need to download & install the Google Play Store apk in order to run Google Play.
Curious to hear if you found a way to install gapps as I have nearly the same problem with my Chinese version. Came with gapps installed, but latest MIUI update disabled it and I don't have any exp flashing anything! Seriously need help in NYC!

I experienced the same - after update v12.0.3, Gapps stopped working. I then searched for solutions and was able to flash it back with ROM version before the update. What I did was:
1. Enable the Developer Options on your Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G.
Go to Settings>My Device>All Specs>Tap 5 or 6 times on the MIUI Version/ Build Number until you see a pop message that shows you “You are now a developer”.
2. Head to the Settings>Additional Settings>Developer Options>enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlock.
3. Go to Settings>Developer Options>Mi Unlock Status and then:
a.Agree to Permission
b.Click Add account and device
c.Turn off wi-fi and use mobile data
d.Your device will be "binded"
3. Using a computer download Mi Unlock tool. In my case I downloaded it from https://www.gizmochina.com/2020/02/11/download-xiaomi-mi-unlock-tool/:
a. The version I first downloaded is miflash_unlock-en-3.5.1128.45.
b. Install it. In my case, the USB driver for my device was also installed.
Another website to download the unlock tool is https://en.miui.com/unlock/download_en.html. This is the version miflash_unlock-en-5.5.224.24. In my case, it was the first version installation where my USB driver was installed. But the second version was the one I used to unlock.
c. Run the unlock tool.
d. Enter you Mi Account credentials. You may need to enter the code sent to the Phone number registered to your Mi Account.
4. Power off your device. Long press the volume down and power button until you see the Fastboot screen. Connect your Device to the PC and then:
a. Click Refresh. Unlock tool shall now show your device and then click unlock.
b. After a short while, you will be advised to unlock after few days, in my case it's 7 days. (It is important at this point that you already creatde a Backup and copy it to your computer. Copy separately the DCIM Folder).
5. After the waiting period:
a.Power off your device. Long press the volume down and power button until you see the Fastboot screen. Connect your Device to the PC.
b. Run the unlock tool.
d. Enter you Mi Account credentials.
e. Click Refresh. Unlock tool shall now show your device and then click unlock.
6. Download Mi Flash Tool. In my case, its MiFlash20210226. unzip and install it.(Note: download the Mi Flash Tool in advance so you have it ready. You may download it same time when you download the unlock tool).
7. Download the Rom Version before the update. I downloaded it from https://xiaomirom.com/en/rom/redmi-note-9-pro-5g-mi-10t-lite-gauguin-china-fastboot-recovery-rom/. In my case, It is a history Fastboot Rom since it is a rollback. It is gauguin_images_V12.0.11.0.QJSCNXM_20210219.0000.00_10.0_cn_01867c5953.tgz. Unzip it and place it in drive C of your computer. (Note: download the Rom Fast Boot in advance so you have it ready).
8. To prevent anti roll back error, I edited all the .bat files. I renamed them to .txt and deleted a portion that restricts roll back. In my case, I deleted the portion after the 2 lines that starts in "fastboot %* getvar..." The portion that I deleted starts with "::check anti_version" and followed by 4 lines of "if..". After delete, you will see that all the lines now start with "fastboot %* only. I then rename it back to .bat. You may want to check out this youtube video:
8. Run the Mi Flash tool and then:
a.Power off your device. Long press the volume down and power button until you see the Fastboot screen. Connect your Device to the PC.
b. Click Refresh. MiFlash tool shall now show your device.
c. Click Select button and find the folder of the ROM in your Drive C. VERY IMPORTANT: at the bottom of the flash tool window,you must select "Clean all" before you click flash button.
6. Wait patiently while flashing. After flashing (about more than 500+ seconds) your device will reboot. Note that the flash tool may say error (something about lock) but in my case, flashing was successful even if it said error. Your device will now reboot. MIUI may take a while to load. Wait patiently. You may need to register again using your MI credentials. It may be in chinese text but you will know because it is shown first after boot. After that, it will all be setting up like its a new phone (you can now choose English language).
IMPORTANT ADVISORY: It is important that you create a Backup and copy it to your computer. Unlocking already deletes the data of your phone. After flashing, you may copy it back to MIUI>Backup Folder>All Backup and use it to restore your contacts and other settings. Also always make sure your phone battery is 80% full if not 100% when unlocking or flashing. In my experience, China Rom is still best to use for Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G because it maximizes the use and features of your phone.Other ROM (India or Global may cause bugs and camera issues). Only caveat is, you can no longer update your MIUI. As the updated MIUI is the one that stops the Gapps from running in the first place. After all this, you will appreciate how unique, special and one of a kind phone is Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G.
UPDATE JUNE 1 2021:
Guys, just right now, after checking, my phone showed MIUI 12.5 as available update. Fingers crossed, I updated my Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G to MIUI 12.5 (v12.5.2.0), and like a blessing from heaven, all my doubts, fears and worries of not being able to use GMS are gone. After updating with v12.0.3 before, all my Gapps stopped working. But with this update, you just have to go to Settings, Accounts and Sync, Basic Google Services (this is new) and just enable it. And just like that, all that nightmare about Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G China rom not allowing google apps is gone. MIUI 12.5 is so smooth and awesome, so feature-rich. For me, sticking to China Rom (english language though) is still the best for China rom phones for you to be able to maximize and enjoy all its features. Flashing other roms may cause bugs and camera issues. Salvation has come! I have no idea about other models but I think K40 also has available update already.

This Guide is for any Xiaomi device with any 'Stock ROM'. Please do the following steps carefully, especially from step 7 to the last step:
Check the current MIUI version on your device, and to do this do the following:
Go to settings> About phone> you will find the version number next to MIUI Version.
You will need to download the same version, so go to the XiaomiRom website.
In the search box above, type your phone’s name, and download the ROM version with the same number you have.
You must make sure that the ROM you are downloading is Recovery version and not Fastboot and it is the same version that is currently on your phone
Now, following the same steps, download the appropriate Indonesian (ID), or European (EU) ROM for your phone with any version number you want but it must be the same Android version.
For example: If you currently have Android 11, the other ROMs must also be Android 11 as well
Now you have two files, the global ROM which is the same as your current version, and the Indonesian ROM that you want to flash.
Go to Settings app > About phone > System updates. Now by pressing the three points above list select the phrase “choose the update package” or the Select Update , the Package .
In case you don’t see this option, simply click on the MIUI logo for 10 consecutive clicks, then the option will appear.
Now, you will choose your “current” official Xiaomi ROM and a message will appear: Your phone will restart automatically with the button: Reboot and update, Leave it and don’t click on it now and leave this page as it is and don’t close it!.
Go to the home screen > file manager > Downloads > then go to the official ROM file that you chose in the previous step and copy its current name “long click with the option to rename and then copy the file name”.
Did you copy the name of the global ROM version? Now delete it!
Again, go to the Indonesian ROM file you downloaded, and rename it, then paste the name of the ROM you copied in the previous step, and do not forget that the file extension is .zip for one time and not duplicated.
Now, go back to the page that I told you not to clos in step 7 and hit the restart and update button.
Now, the phone will reboot, and start installing the Indonesian ROM or any other ROM you downloaded in the first steps on your instead of the global one.
So, what have we done here?! Simply, starting from step 7, the phone told us that we will install the global version of the ROM, so at the same time the system Decrypt it to find out the data of the Zip file of the ROM that you chose, and thus the OS skipped here the stage of making sure that this version is compatible with your current phone.
Then, in step 9 and step 10 we deleted the ‘System Approved’ ROM and renamed the Indonesian ROM to the same name as the ROM the phone approved in Step 7 – so the phone went straight to it since it’s the same name.

Yes it is safe. But I used this method to downgrade from 12.5.5 Global to 12.0.4 global. As there are news that MIUI 12.5.5 is causing an issue and people's devices are getting hard bricked suddenly.
Thank you in advance, I'm new on this forum. Doing this process, do you lose any data?
Thanks

You should have recorded a video of this process. There could be some after effect. Like OTA and trying to get back to the main stock Rom

thank you.will i loose any data?i want to go ID for enable call record
Is google play certification passes with this method? Are Playstore and other google apps work after switching Rom's area for instance Global to Indonesia or EU?
If it helps anyone who comes to this thread and interested in the answer: I Switched from 12.5.7 Global to 12.0.3 Indonesian rom. After restart a data wipe was needed. I haven't signed in any google account yet but google play protection says that my device is certified.
I have 12.5.4(RJUEUXM) EEA, could I flash 12.5.7(RJUMIXM) Global using this method? I assume so, but my question is, will it need a full wipe?
Also, can I flash a xiaomi.eu recovery using this method, or is it silly to even consider it?
I installed MiUI 12.5.4.0 indonasian on my Global Poco X3 pro after unlocking bootloader. And now I have Upgraded it to MiUI 12.5.7 Global using this method. By doing this, my data was not erased. Everything seems to be working but after few hours I noticed that some apps e.g SMS is not opening. I am resetting my device now as I have already backed up my data.
Thanks for tutorial. Munchy's video helped a lot as well.
My phone with Android 10 and also MIUI 12.0.5 and I want to change to ROM MIUI 12.5 and Android 11 can I change or not?
I try to go from Global_V12.5.4.0.RJUEUXM to xiaomi.eu_multi_POCOX3Pro_V12.5.7.0.RJUMIXM but it didn'r work for me.
Boot locked here.
