Its a fully touch driven user interface no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

Hey ! Good job ! I tried building my own TWRP today but then noticed someone already did it ! Does encryption work ? I cant seem to decrypt the partition after flashing your TWRP.
EDIT : Couldn't wait, ended up formatting with encryption disabled via a zip + magisk
I've then proceeded to flash some GSI for Android 9 (even tried Q Beta 3) and if we want 9.0 one day, some heavy work will be needed : Cellular doesn't work; other than that, it all seems fine to me, camera is only 12mpx, front is 13mpx. Haven't tested more, i'm back to stock
EDIT 2: After comparing camera from stock and gsi, GSI wins easily. The camera is not as slow as stock.
Are there any decent ROMs yet for this phone? LineageOS would be fantastic.
@kgoerbig not to my knowledge. Maybe I'll try porting a 9.0 GSI soon.
I'm not sure if this is helpful or not, but Umidigi posts stock ROM on there forum. Can ROMs be ported based on there code? Or is it more complicated then that?

I have tested LineageOS 16.0 GSI Android 9.0 (and many others ...) and it works well, even GSM and Camera.
The only thing I cannot have is a complete root : I install Magisk 19.3 correctly, but applications cannot get root permission (Titanium Backup cannot have su permission)

If you use the stock boot.img with an GSI system image, it will not boot, you must first flash Magisk.zip before reboot!
It will disable dm-verity, and you can boot after.
If it continue reboot in bootloader mode, use spflashtool to flash a stock rom and all will be right
Or if you have a TWRP backup, restore all partitions except boot/recovery/cache/system/data and you can boot
@ dreambo Can you make a writeup of properly unlocking the bootloader/rooting? Or did you use these methods?

I should be receiving my Umidigi One Max in a day or so, and do not want to bork anything up! I have SPflash installed both on a Win10 laptop, and on a Ubuntu Linux machine.

You do not need to unlock you phone, mine is rooted with Magisk and have TWRP installed without unlock bootloader.
Just use spflashtool to flash a stock rom, but replace the recovery by TWRP and the boot.img by magisk_patched.img one.
Here how I do exactly:
1- in my running stock rom, I install MagiskManager and install Magisk by choosing the last option (patch existing boot.img)
2- give it your stock boot.img (extracted from stock rom) and it create for you /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched.img
3- use this to replace your stock boot.img and use also TWRP.img to replace stock recovery.img and flash the whole rom with SPFlashTool
Can you backup with TWRP with a locked bootloader? Isn't write access blocked with a locked bootloader?

Downloadable from: https://community.umidigi.com/forum.php?mod=forumdisplay&fid=211
UMIDIGI One Max V1.0

I have used the European one, UMIDIGI One Max E V1.0
So I just received my One Max today. I was able to patch the boot image, and root the phone. I also, installed TWRP, but I'm running into an issue. From TWRP, I formatted with a normal wipe, It asked "Do you want to do this, it wipes data encryption Etc". I typed yes, and it did it's thing. Rebooted. Setup my basic settings on the phone. I rebooted back into TWRP, and it immediatly asked for a "decryption" password. It also won't allow me to mount internal partitions or sdcard. This even after I rooted via a patched boot file, and verified root access while booted in android (with root verify app). What am I doing wrong for TWRP to gain access to storage?
"Couldn't wait, ended up formatting with encryption disabled via a zip + magisk"
How did you format without encryption? I try to format from TWRP, type 'yes' , to verify, and encryption is still active. I'd like to disable encryption, so that I can properly backup everything from TWRP.

Search in xda forum a zip that you can flash with TWRP before installing the Magisk zip from TWRP.
its name is disable_dm_verity????.zip, it disable in the boot.img the encryption.
After that format the data partition (format and not wipe, it's important!) and reboot normally, and your data partition will not be encrypted

I eventually found all the correct files to remove encryption. I also installed AOSP. I'm kind of torn between the stock and AOSP. AOSP has better performance, but one annoying aspect is that I cannot find anywhere in the settings to switch the navigation buttons in AOSP (Back button is on the far left, I like it on the right side). Seems trivial, but it's annoying. I can now fully backup & restore in TWRP, which makes life a lot easier.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/umidigi-one-max-custom-rom-modding-t3942521
This Rom
https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/releases
Do a complete backup of stock from TWRP onto microsd or USB first! System, data, modem, nvram partitions etc. That way you can restore from TWRP, and not lose os, data, or nvram (IMEI).
Specifically, system-arm64-aonly-gapps-su.img.xz
1. Download and extract file you downloaded, onto your phone.
2. Do a format (type yes)
3. Install from TWRP as "image".
So I tried to flash miui eu and my phone was unable to reboot. It goes straight into recovery.
This step by step what I've done so far:
1) unlocked bootloader with xiaomi unlock
2) installed ADB and TWRP 3.3.1-0
3) attempted to flash miui eu ROM, which resulted in boot loop/enters recovery now
I can go back and forth between bootloader and recovery. I was just going to transfer another ROM to my phone and re-flash.
HOWEVER, I can't access the files on my phone via my computer
The phone is detected but it' listed as an "unspecified" device on my computer. Drivers are up to date per the xiaomi bootloader unlocker app.
Any help is appreciated...
Format data?
And after reboot to recovery and flash rom
You have twrp?
Try following this guide I wrote for someone else, the other day, just substitute the version of Xiaomi.EU you want to use for Evolution (or the Xiaomi.EU rom used in the middle of the guide, that may work).
Bootloops on this phone usually come down to needing to *FORMAT* (not just wipe) data, or needing to have the correct vendor image; the one you can find in this little guide has been working fine for me with everything.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79909955&postcount=142
Had this issue before. Try format data typing "yes" then reboot to recovery.

this worked, thanks!
I've tried installing PixelExperience 10 on my phone (which is unlocked and with a custom recovery) and first it throw me Error 7, but that was because I hadn't flash the firmware and vendor .zips before PixelExperience, but even flashing that, the device bootloops until a certain point and then it boot back to recovery.
I've tried with dotOS, LineageOS, even MIUI, multiple versions of it, and non of it are working. The device just bootloops with everything.
Fastboot is accesible, recovery is accesible. I'm using OrangeFox Version R10.0_2, but I originally installed TWRP and I had the same problem.
Have you tried flashing TWRP, then using TWRP recovery environment to wipe EVERTHING, then use adb to push lineageOS (since you will have wiped internal data and lost your rom file)

OrangeFox lets me wipe the same partitions (even Vendor, which TWRP doesn't let me).
I'm not sure if I can install Lineage OS thru adb because it asks for MIUI firmware to be installed. If I wipe everything, I loose the firmware.
Althought, I haven't wiped the internal storage in I while, since I have all the roms and zips, there. I'll try with that.
Make "Format Data" - Yes after that wipe data, system, cache and vendor. Copy zips to storage and dont sideload.
Flash fw 9.6.27, los17 and opengapps. Must work.
The way these roms work you basically have to have previously installed a corresponding version of MIUI first. For instance, if you want to install los16 then you must have previously been running MIUI 10. If you want to install los17 then you need to install MIUI 11 first. I guess Xiaomi does some weird stuff to the internal storage between flashes. If you're stuck in a bootloop the easiest thing to do is use the official MiFlash tool to flash the ROM version of your choice. MiFlash uses fastboot rom files. This site has the best catalog of roms
https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/
MAKE SURE YOU UNTICK "Clean and lock" at the bottom or else you will relock your bootloader!
Hello everyone,
First of all, rom and recovery are not from me... I just want to make a full guide to help you
So let's go !!!!!
1 step: unlock bootloader
https://en.miui.com/unlock/
BE CAREFUL unlocking your bootloader will erase all your data (internal storage) so don't forget to make a backup
2 step: flash twrp recovery
Download the recovery image from here
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-1CSfT4lQwFZngu6RI9eowLA9CmEMEPw/view?usp=drivesdk
Be sure to have adb and fastboot tools on your computer ... If not take a look at here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
Past TWRP_umi.img on minimal adb and fastboot directory.
Open a cmd here.
Enable usb debugging on your device
Reboot your phone on bootloader (hold volume down + power), connect it to PC and tape:
fastboot devices
fastboot flash recovery TWRP_umi.img
Then tape fastboot reboot while holding volume up button on your devices to reboot in recovery
3 step:
At the first launch of Twrp You have to choose SWIPE TO ALLOW MODIFICATION
4 step:
THIS ONE OF THE MUST IMPORTANT STEP
In twrp menu you have to go in Wipe data on choose format data
Otherwise the ROM will not boot.
5 step:
Reboot into recovery from twrp.
6 step:
Connect your phone to your PC and paste the xiaomi.eu ROM of your choice (stable or Dev)
7 step:
Flash ROM from recovery
8 step:
REBOOT AND ENJOY :good::good::good:
Does Xiaomi EU Rom run either on encrypted and unencrypted storage?
I cant get this to work, ive been trying everything for hours. I am sure i am missing something stupid but if anyone has any new ideas please let me know. I unlocked my device today, flashed twrp via fastboot, rebooted to recovery, formatted data then went on to install xiaomi eu rom. Ever since trying this, i am constantly booting into recovery or hitting a boot loop. i have formatted data more times than i care to think of ha ha. ive tried flashing the latest fastboot rom via mi unlock tool to do a fresh start but keep getting ''flash crclist error". Ive also tried flashing miui stock via twrp and it also, doesn't boot. ive tried many combinations in between. My next option is to try the fastboot global rom (though i believe i have a chinese device), i am waiting for it to download. If anyone knows what i am doing wrong i will be eternally grateful if you can tell me what it is. I'm so frustrated, been flashing roms for years, never had anything take as long as this :crying:

I have followed the tutorials to perfection like 2-3 times and I still face the same issue
I always go back to TWRP after trying to boot into system.
I have tried 2 different recovery files
The experimental one asks for a password. and the other one works but keeps going back to recovery after flashing.
MIUI 11 rom
MIUI 12 rom
No matter what I do It keeps going back to recovery.
It's my only device so I truly need help.
I have tried re installing everything already.
At this point I just want to install stock rom and keep using it without flashing anything please help.
PHONE FINALLY REBOOTING INTO SYSTEM. I myself don't know what i did!!!
Bootloop (stuck on 5G logo) after flashing Xiaomi.eu ROM
Dear fellow XDA-dev community members,
Xiaomi Mi 10 (umi), coming from original stock ROM, MIUI 11 GLOBAL version V11.0.2.0.QJBMIXM.
Bootloader unlocked official way via MiFlash Unlock 4.5.514.47.
Custom recovery TWRP 3.4.1b-0313 installed via XiaoMiTool V2.
Tested root by installing Magisk 20.3 via TWRP, no problem, then updating to Magisk 20.4 with the Magisk Manager 7.5.1.
The problems started when I tried to install Xiaomi.eu Custom ROM : xiaomi.eu_multi_MI10_V11.0.25.0.QJBCNXM_v11-10
Downloaded the Xiaomi.eu ROM to PC, then copied to the Download folder of the Phone.
Started phone in upload mode or TWRP. > Wipe > Swipe to Factory Reset + Format Data.
When formatting data I erase all folders in the phone, including the Xiaomi.eu ROM copied in the Download folder.
Some tutorials suggest to copy the Xiaomi.eu ROM from PC to phone after formatting the data, just by connecting the phone in TWRP to the PC, by going to > Mount and enabling MTP.
Tried this method but when I send the Xiaomi.eu ROM file to the phone the progress bas doesn’t move.
So I restarted the phone, without installing the Custom ROM, went through all the screens of initial phone configuration. Lost Magisk and root (but I supposed that it’s not mandatory to install Custom ROM). Copied again the Xiaomi.eu ROM zip file to the Download folder. Rebooted to TWRP. This time I just did Factory Reset but without Format Data. Then > Install to install the Xiaomi.eu new ROM. Cleared Dalvik Cache then reboot.
PROBLEM : bootloop. Stuck with the 5G logo forever, waited more than 30 min, no change.
Still have access to recovery TWRP and to bootloader mode. I suppose this is a soft brick?
I did > Wipe, Swipe to Factory Reset + Format Data, restarted… no change.
Copied this time the Xiaomi.eu ROM to a clean formatted (FAT32) USB drive. As shown in some tutorials, you can us an external USB drive via USB OTG to install the Custom ROM via TWRP.
Factory Reset + Format Data, then I installed again the same Xiaomi.eu ROM from the external USB. Still stuck in bootloop.
Please I need help to fix the problem
I’m not an expert developer, but I’m not a complete noob either.
This is the first time I have troubles with a brand new Xiaomi Phone.
It’s the first time I get a very expensive phone, but had no choice (they are getting very expensive), because I always buy a Flagship Xiaomi to get all the community support possible.
And I had to change the ROM to Xiaomi.eu, because the Official Global ROM is full of bloatware I had a good experience with Xiaomi.eu ROMs with my old Xiaomi Mi 4 and Mi 5.
At this point I don’t mind going back to stock MIUI Global ROM.
I suppose that with access to boot loader I can flash the Official ROM from PC with MiFlash2020-3-14-0? If it’s the case can somebody show me detailed steps to do that?
For Mi 10 Official Global there is the Stable Full ROM (miui_UMIGlobal_V11.0.2.0.QJBMIXM_4f986c08cb_10.0 ) (2.45 GB) and Stable ROM (umi_global_images_V11.0.2.0.QJBMIXM_20200328.0000.00_10.0_global_09b168ff9e) (3.76 GB). Which One to flash from PC with MiFlash?
I can’t afford to hard brick the device
Thank you very much.

Hello,
i have a silly question about step 4:
someone says we should "Wipe Data", someone says we should "Format Data" ,
i don't see a real difference unless we want to change the filesystem type.
Advices ?
And also, when we format ( or wipe ) the "Data" partition, are we formatting the 256 GB partition ?
if yes, this is a really huge drawback for us who want to change ROM more frequently than other android users, because we have to backup a 256 GB partition ...
This is not fast to do online ( at least with my poor connection ) and it is not fast to do on PC or on a USB KEY.
So we have 256 GB and we need to format at each ROM change ? Too bad ...
In the good old times i did extract my microSD card and i was safe .
Someone could explain me please ?
thank you all for your patience...

Hello,
You have to format data the first time you flash xiaomi.eu rom because their rom is base on Chinese firmware (if you don't or just wipe it will not boot)
Each time you will flash a rom with different base (from Chinese base to global base or global to Chinese) you will have to format data !!
You format data to remove encryption.

Hello,
I tried to flash the latest miui 12. I followed all the steps...
But now I can't acess recovery nor rom.
Basically when i try to flash TWRP with bootloader it just goes back to fastboot.
Also note that the flash is successful. But I somehow can't acess TWRP, just goes back to fastboot
And when I flash the experimental TWRP on the dev thread it boots to recovery but asks for a password.. Impossible to flash anything.. Even after I formated data and everything
I tried flashing other TWRP I found but nothing boots even after trying a lot of time.
I tried <fastboot boot recovery.img> as well
I tried <fastboot erase recovery> and then flash the TWRP as well
I've been trying hard for the last 8 hours.
I also have a backup of when I had MIUI 12. But impossible to flash it with the only recovery I can boot to.
I feel so desperate. I'm out of ideas.
If you have any ideas, I'm listening
Thanks for the help guys.

an what is the latest miui12 u try to flash
Hi all.
Today I unlocked my phone to flash the crDroid rom. First I went into fastboot to flash mauro's twrp and that worked fine. Then I flashed the miui 12.0.3 full stock image from twrp, which might have been a mistake since I flashed the full image instead of an extracted vendor / firmware version. Then I wiped system, cache and data and flashed twrp but when I tried to boot the phone it went into an infinite boot screen. Then I wiped and flashed the whole stock miui image again in the hope that I would at least be able to boot miui but that also failed, since the phone kept booting back to recovery and there was no boot screen at all.
I have also tried flashing the stock image (ver 12.0.6) from fastboot but it fails because of the anti rollback check error. The image I tried to flash has an antirollback version of 0 while my phone has a version of 1, so "current device antirollback version is greater than this package" is what I got. Now my options are very limited because for some reason my laptop can't access the file system of the phone so I can't transfer files to the phone anymore and the ADB sideload feature from twrp is not working, so I only have fastboot (adb also won't recognize my device). What can I do to save my phone? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Flash the MIUI with MiFlash.
Had sort of the same issue...
Try using adbfastboot tool ( it's a java programme ) to swap recoveries.
I got the bootloop after installing the LOS recovery , installed twrp from adbfastboot tool and got it working.
Nice to have working recovery but since adb sideload is broken in twrp i needed LOS recovery.
Tried to reflash the LOS recovery from the tool and this time it worked
Flash with Miflash (the latest version https://xiaomiflashtool.com/ option CLEAN ALL) the rom that was on your phone when you bought it.
For the roms It is better to flash firmwares with Miflash because TWRP is not 100% functional.

Man I can't believe such a simple suggestion would work but it did thanks! Initially I did not flash with miflash because it prompted me to install drivers and it crashed when I clicked the install button, turns out all I had to do was create a folder named log in the miflash directory lol. So flashing the stock image works. And it definitely boots correctly to miui with the clean all and lock option.
But now when I try to flash crdroid or pixel experience I still end up with an infinite boot screen even when using exactly the specified firmware :/ Like you see crdroid and pixelexp boot animations correctly but it lasts forever. I must be doing something wrong with the firmware still because that's the only reason I can think of why it won't boot. After I flash the firmware in miflash I don't have to boot miui up first right? I'm using the 'save user data' option in miflash if that matters.
In my post, I specified CLEANALL, but anyway, you must format data before flashing.
Which rom do you want to install Cdroid or Pixel?

I'm now trying to flash crdroid. After flashing V12.0.3.0.QJKMIXM in miflash with flash_all, I formatted data in twrp (the one where you have to type yes) but also with a decrypt & normal factory reset I still get the same result. After the format, I flashed crdroid without magisk and gapps, and it'll just hang on the crdroid boot screen :/. The weird thing is, before I flash the crdroid rom it can boot in MIUI just fine and it'll show that it's indeed the correct 12.0.3.0 in the settings so I have no idea if it's just the crdroid ROM at this point.
Flash with miflash V12.0.3.0.QJKMIXM reboot system and go fasboot when affiche "devices is locked",flash chinesse twrp ,reboot twrp,format data reboot twrp,wipe all ecxept OTG reboot twrp,flash Cdroid format data,reboot twrp flash gapps,reboot system( take time ).
