Hello dear friends!
I have Rog Phone 12/128GB CN Version, but i flashed the Global RAW ROM with locked bootloader. How can I change the fingerprint to WW without root access?
If you flash global rom over chinese rom with locked bootloader the screen refresh is always 60hz even if you switch to 144hz is that right or wrong?
Thank you.

hi all,
anyone ever use mi mix 2s global rom with 5 digits version of miui ? example 9.5.4.0.0 . is it the real global stable rom ? i checked the phone was unlocked shown on the bottom when i turned on the phone. Can i just flash to other rom with miflash tool ??? seem the phone bootloader is unlocked.
thank you for the attention.
That and the fact it came unlocked sounds fishy. You can miflash a rom for sure. You'll want to find out if it's truly a global model as well because if its a China model you will brick the phone if you relock the bootloader with a global rom.

thank you for the replied.
seem its china model because the phone was unlocked...so how could i flash the rom if i want a global stable rom like the real global version of mix 2s ??? TWRP is the last method???
You can use miflash to flash global stable ROMs, they will work just fine, just DO NOT AT ALL attempt to relock the bootloader unless you are back on China stable.
Also watch miflash... Down the bottom right you have the flash, clean and flash, flash and lock etc. Absolutely make sure it is not on a lock option. It's easy to do there by accident if you don't check.

Immediately try to flash official global stable !!!!!!
Like it was said DO NOT lock bootloader until you do get on official rom
You phone came with 3rd party FAKE miui (yes thats the name of this rom) it may contain malware and all kind of bullsh*t
My first Mi 5 came with it, I studied it so trust me. Flash global stable!!
You can flash twrp via fastboot and then flash miui eu weekly, that a way to get rid of this nasty fake crap!!!

Dude don't tell him to lock the bootloader.
Chinese versions of the phone only work on global with the bootloader unlocked, If he locks it the phone won't boot and he won't have any way of installing the chinese rom because the mi account isn't bound. So he'll end up with a hardbrick that could only be fixed with a special mi account and EDL mode.
Tl;Dr DO NOT LOCK THE BOOTLOADER YOUR PHONE WILL BRICK

Thank you for the useful information, i will remember it.
Im now in FAKE miui rom, so i just need download the global stable rom and flash over this fake rom through Miflashtool? Will it relock the bootloader? Im still not sure if my phone bootloader is unlocked or not. But when i turned on, i see unlocked msg on the screen.

I wrote "DO NOT LOCK" can you read?
And how are you sure he is using the china version? Cause it came unlocked ?? Every version of the phone can come unlocked if a 3rd party was doing stuff on it...

When you flashing there are clean and lock, DO NOT CHOOSE lock
Tell us the whats on the back of the phone, the model ?
Hello my friends,
i bought the rog 5 in china and it comes with global rom installed, any chance that the bootloader has not been blocked? how can i confirm this when the phone arrives?
If it is blocked and the only chance to unlock has already been used, is there any hope to be able to unlock it in the future?

If your phone is Tencent edition and global rom already installed, and your bootloader Locked . Then you can't unlock it by official mathod . You need to wait until someone drop edl flash mathod.

what is the easiest way when rog arrives to check if the bootloader is locked?
I had bought the tencent edition - but it came with the WW firmware, so I assumed it was unlocked and then locked. I was also not able to get OTA updates, so that confirmed that the phone was indeed unlocked and then re-locked earlier.
I was able to unlock it again using the ASUS unlock app which I downloaded from here : https://rog.asus.com/us/phones/rog-phone-5-model/helpdesk_download
But then I decided to return the phone, so I wanted to re-locked it again, since whenever I rebooted, a warning message saying "the phone is unlocked and that sensitive information should not be stored on it" used to pop up.
"fastboot flashing lock" did NOT work for me..
but "fastboot oem asus-csc_lk" worked fine... It factory reset and re-locked the phone back.

It's not showing any type of warning massage if the bootloader is unlocked ! And if your bootloader is unlocked then it's showing and warning massage " the phone is unlocked and that sensitive information should not be stored on it " like this. And if your phone is already unlock and relock again then you can check it by fastboot command.
my experience rooting was as follows:
I bought the rog phone 5 I005DA in china, in which the store changed the rom CN to WW version WW-18.0830.2101.86 and blocked the bootloader.
When my hands arrived I updated the firmware to WW-18.0840.2103.26 (the last one available).
I followed all the steps in this post and I was successful with root.
(Attention, extract the boot.img from the firmware that you currently have installed on the phone)

With Locked bootloader? Certainly not. Unlocking and then re-locking again is not difficult/will not break warranty, downgrading however does break Warranty if they found out.
If you decide to go with unlock/relock process, All you need to start is to look here: Poco X3/NFC index.
Before you begin though, first Connect your phone in fastboot mode and use:
Code:
fastboot getvar anti
to check Anti Rollback counter. The output should be 2.
If it is less than 2, then unfortunately you cannot downgrade to Official MIUI A10 safely. (There
are methods, but they cost money and/or carry a high risk of bricking)
My advice is to unlock your bootloader and flash a Custom ROM. MIUI A11 is not made for the Snapdragon 732G Chipset that comes with your device, it is full of bloatware and stuters at every corner. In comparison to the custom ROMs here on xda, which are very smooth last and longer in battery life. Most important of all, a lot of them pass Safetynet/are google play certified out-of-the-box.

Hello, I am planning to change my Poco X3 firmware region to Global.
If I install the global firmware and attempt to lock the bootloader, will it brick the device, or do I need to use the original region firmware to avoid this?
There is a very high chance you will brick your device when locking bootloader with rom for different region, I wouldn't risk it.
Hi,
I have unlocked my rog 5s using official app.
I did some playing with roms and installed official firmware by flashing RAW firmware.
I have locked the device using below command.
fastboot oem asus-lock
Now that my phone is in unlocked Rog phone list, I am not getting any updates nor Asus Unlock app is working.
I want to unlock my phone again and install some GSI roms as I officially don't get any updates from ASUS.
Any help is appreciated........
Maybe by changing the device rom and fingerprint back to Chinese version and hoping that the unlock tool will pick it up as a good match - Guess being that your phone is a CH>WW convert and not an original Global/WW version from factory.
Re-locking converted devices is a bad idea. It's posted and warned about so many times in this forum by other CN device owners...
