Buy a xiaomi 11T chinese version for use in France ? - General Questions and Answers

Hello, I am a simple user.
I have already tweaked my android phones a bit to install custom roms on a nexus 4 and oneplus One.
I am French, I use a translation tool to write to you.
I'm considering buying a Xiaomi 11T on Ali.
This is Chinese version with global rom.
Normally the 11T has all the 4G frequencies of my operator in France. Unlike the Oneplus 9 that I'm also considering...
Here are my questions:
- aren't the global roms from Chinese vendors spoofed?
- is it possible to install a rom Xiaomi.eu ? without losing the Google Pay payment? or rooting the phone and unlocking will no longer allow payments?
- do I have any risks with the European banking applications that I use?
I hope I am posting in the right place and that my questions are clear.
Thank you in advance for your help.
edit: I see that there seems to be few roms for this cause mediatek chip, should I suddenly consider the 11T but which is more expensive?

No or little development for mediatek soc, no
Xiaomi Eu rom.
Buy a phone with an equivalent Chinese version or a global version with a Snapdragon soc.
I have an 11 t pro rom Xiaomi eu and I regret my Poco F2/K30 pro a little at the development level.

Hello,
OK thank you for your answer.
If I take a xiaomi, it will therefore rather be the 11T. I still hesitate with the Oneplus 9.
On the other hand, as I have no confidence with the roms installed by the resellers, and what the Chinese phone with global rom will support an official xiaomi EEA (europe) rom downloadable there: https://c.mi.com/ oc/miuidownload/detail?guide=2
Or is the material different depending on the market and the installation will not necessarily be possible?
Finally, especially if I change the rom, I have to unlock the bootloader, root it and install the rom? Will this not cause me to lose NFC contactless payment via Google Pay for example ??? (very important for me I use it all the time).

11t 5G?
I see.
If you unlock the bootloader and root the phone you will need to use magisk hide for your banking apps to work and the playstore to be certified. why root?
Unlock the bootloader, flash the rom and relock the bootloader.

@NOSS8
Yes it will be a 11T 5G version.
I admit that I haven't flashed such a device for a long time, and so in my memory the root was necessary.
If I can flash without root it's better because I want to keep as much as possible an official thing so that it is compatible with banking applications, NFC, GPay etc...
With this method it seems that we can flash the rom without having to unlock the bootloader: https://c.mi.com/oc/miuidownload/detail?guide=1
But then are all the official Xiaomi 11T roms compatible regardless of the origin of the phone (i.e. are there hardware variants according to the regions of the world on this phone which mean that only certain roms are installable?)

understand that with a mediatek soc you will be limited to the stock rom.

@NOSS8
Hello thank you yes that's what I understood also we can update the rom without unlocking the bootloader.
On the other hand, can we change from a global rom to the EEA (europe) rom without problem ?
I think we can if the material is strictly identical. But I don't know if xiaomi produces specific variants according to countries / region of the world?
Target product now Xiaomi 11T Pro

No Chinese rom for the 11 t pro but Xiaomi EU custom rom based on global version and probably later AOSP roms.
Global rom are better than EEA rom.

Not really, some Chinese phone have a different modem for example, what is important is the code name which must be identical.(post #2).

I am French too, I try to buy Xiaomi in global version but sometimes like on the 11 t pro it is an EEA version, the first thing that is done is to install a global version.
Never had a problem with this so called data protection.
Despite this implementation, google is not a hindrance for the exploited and then our technocrats have to justify their salaries by leaving bogus legislation that is strictly useless.
Just good to tax us.

Question regarding Honor 6x/Huawei Mate 9 lite

Hi everyone, I just received a Huawei Mate 9 lite as a gift which I'm aware it's a rebranded Honor 6x for (as far as I'm aware) Latin America. I understand that many 6x rooms work for it but have no idea how to get started since model numbers are different.
I have the 32gb/3gb ram model single sim and the model number is BL L23, I'm on marshmallow with EMUI 4.1.3 and I want to update to the official nougat release, I've seen official nougat rooms for this model but they have a different build number, does that matter?
It's a carrier-locked phone, but if it's possible to install a stock, non-carrier room on it like in other phones I have no issue with that...
TLDR version: I have a mate 9 lite and would like to upgrade to nougat, model BL L23 and build number C43B121, and no, carrier does not have update on OTA.

I found the huawei firmware finder on google play (translating the russian forum that appears on your sig) and there are quite alot of firmwares for my model, but does the build number matter? or does it only indicate the build number of the software andit shouldn't affect installtion? my build number is BLL-L23C43B121, I'm sure this is just a carrier specific version, but I want to make sure because this is the first time I own a non-flagship phone without a lot of support (like the Galaxy S2/S4, HTC One M7 and LG G3 which I've owned before).
Found a post on xda where it showed all the country codes...
The post shows that C605 is Colombia, and my phone was bought in Uruguay, I checked and Colombia uses same LTE bands, can I use a rom labeled LL-L23C605B364? or Do I have to unlock bootloader or something?

Nope you can not. Unless you flash the oeminfo file of L23C605 then only you can do this. We dont have the oeminfo file of that model yet. However if you just want to update the version, we can do via dload.
Great, how do I do that?
Update to nougat without having to change oeminfo?

Using dload. Let me check and give the links.
Yours is BLL-L23C43B121 OR BLL-L23C432B121?
There is a difference of 43 and 432.
Thanks for the quick reply, I have the update.zip from the c605 update, the big one (around 1.6gb), is that good? I didn't download the one that actually has the build number, the one specific for the c605..

Oh alright, so it's hopeless now? Should I wait until there's a method to update this model? I read that certain stock and custom roms fromtje honor 6x work with the mate 9 lite since it's basically the same phone...but if that's true, I don't know whichmodel of the 6x would be equivalent to mine,or if it is safe to do that...

Bumping the thread. Have you found any solution for this? I keep searching everywhere but nothing, I can unlock it and seen that I can probably root it too, but I can't rebrand it because as you mentioned there are no oeminfo files for the BLL L23. I've seen in another forum people withthe standard unlocked Mate 9 lite just updated through OTA and everything went fine but I cannot do that due to mine being a carrier-locked version.
I have the C605 update in my phone, I haven't flashed it because I was told not to since it might brick my device. Now, when I do the firmware check on Firmware finder it says "approved", should I trust that even though my firmware says C43B (not C432) and B121 (software version...?).

One final question, I used to have a galaxy S4 years ago, I remember I could install any other region of a rom as long as it was the same HARDWARE model, I had an international/Americas model and I managed to install a russian stock rom whixh had other updates, it was the same hardware model but different region...
Is it different with huawei's?

Little x3 Hard Brick ??
Hello, I have a bit x3 nfc global version, I had the bootloader unlocked, and I had rom xiaomi eu 12.0.7 android 10, download this version "surya_global_images_V12.0.1.0.RJGMIXM_20210602.0000.00_11.0_global" install through my flash and It gave me the error: "xbl error" computer when restarting no longer turns on anything, it does not recognize fastboot only recognizes when connecting to the pc: "Qualcomm Hs usb qloader 9008 (com 10)". Any solution? Thank you.
You will probably need to use EDL mode, but you will need permission to use this mode.
Only xiaomi repair centers and some developers have this authorization.
Or try here.(It's not free but it works)
The problem happened because you flashed an android 11 stock rom on a xiaomi EU android 10 rom. The safest procedure is to reflash the stock android 10 rom and then the stock android 11 rom.

Hello, thank you very much for your help, base rom had 12.0.7 global rom, install 12.0.7 eu, update 12.0.8 eu ota.
The correct procedure would be:
Flash global rom 12.07 or 12.08?
Update android 11 with global base rom.
My mistake was not checking the antirollback?
Sorry so many questions .
Thank you.

It is not a problem of anti rollback.
(12.08 set version=2 and 12.0.1 set version=2)
Did you use the latest MIflash ?
On which site did you download the rom ?
Did you selected clean all with Miflash? because by default clean all and lock is selected and this is the most common mistake.

Dont care about version(i use the one)but you can download the lastest

Question Chinese ROM vs Global / Indian ROM

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?

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.

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.

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.
Im using cn.
The only problem Im getting is the CN Apps but you can uninstall / remove then using ADB or manual uninstall only hehe
Thats why CN Version is the best of all version!

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

Hi guys.
Yesterday i bought gt neo 2. Om on

RMX3370_11_A.07...​

Anybody can help plz.

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

Question Global ROM for Neo 3 basics info wanted by total newbie

Hello all,
Total newbie here, and I purchased two phones with the Chinese Rom, hoping to flash to the global version when it came out (which is released today).
I have the RMX3560 (8 GB Ram, 128 Gig, 80 watt charging) with the build number RMX3560_11_A.31
So I have a couple of novice questions
About how long after the release date will I have to wait for the Global RAM version?
From what I have seen the Indian version is RMX3561 and there is also RMX3563 What is the difference? Can I only use RMX3560? or will other variations work?
Thank you in advance, I look forward to growing in knowledge
i am RMX3560 user too, not sure this phone can flash to RMX3561 firmware or not .......
I purchase RMX3562 Chinese version at April. The RMX3561 global version just luanch at Jun. Normally, wait 2month around could find the ROM.
Do you know where I can get the RMX 3562 stock rom, I need to flash the Chinese version to unlock the bootloader. the European version RMX3563 does not currently support DeepTesting.

Do you even understand that u need to unlock bootloader BEFORE u can flash other roms? and what is the point of unlock it if u already have the global version? no one want to make rom or custom recovery for mtk chip, ppl unlock to flash global rom since they bought the chinese variant, fyi they (realme) dont sell globally all of their phones some sells only in selected countries and regions

I need to unlock the bootloader to be able to root magisk... I can't find any way to do it on this gt neo 3 150w device... I think I just have to wait for an update of the deeptesting apk
There have a no free way can have the rom. Google search gsmmafia. There have RMX3561,80W charging and RMX3563,150W chargeing. I think 3560 China = 3561 Global, 3562 China = 3563 Global.

Do you know how I can flash the rom RMX3562_11.A.34? I don't have bootloader unlock. and I don't have the scatter file of Dimensity 8100
To be careful, you should backup your data before unlock. Your phone will fully erase after unlock. Unlock the phone is the minimum requirement for flash "ROM" or "ROOT".
I found RMX3561export_11_A.06_2022050613370200.7z that might be load scatter by SP Flash tool v6 (IMAGESS/download_agent/flash.xml)
But seems still no available bypass auth ... Any one can help?
the export for our processor has not been developed yet. On github, you can follow the corresponding branch. We have to wait a little, everything will be fine)).
I am asking, just to be clear on this... As I bought Realme GT Neo3 12+256 RMX3560 from China, with China ROM, will I be able eventually to install Global or EU ROM? With China ROM, Android auto, notifications on always on screen are not working!

Many people are interested in this question. I have the same model. To change the region, you need to bypass authorization, and now it is not yet possible to do this. The exploit has not been developed yet. The forum describes the experience of OnePlus Ace firmware on OxygenOS. In any case, it's better not to experiment yet.
I also buy china version rmx3560 12+256 and flash to India version(maybe global).
Maybe i can post a tutorial later.
Give some tips.
1. Unlock bootloader
2.get the india version full update payload.bin
3.dump the image
4.use flashboot to flash 38 image
5.erase all user data
6.reboot

Question RN 11Pro+ 5G Peux Is it worth the risk to change region?

Hello everyone! I've read several of the posts in here to understand the different procedures (newbie here on xiami things). I've got the Peux version, which doesn't have the MIUI14 released yet. From this, I've got questions for everyone here.
For the ROM part
1) Is it worth it to change the region to Global for the updates?
2) Can you tell me about your experience with the XiaoMiTool V2?
3) Is it better to do all steps as stated in the How-to guides?
For the Firmware part
I just checked, and in the firmware, there is already the V14 for Redmi Note 11 Pro/Pro+/Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G/Xiaomi 11i 5G/Hypercharge, India version, which I assume is my phone.
But, if the firmware is V14, will it update everything in my phone but the MIUI? Or if this is a misconception, I think I haven't fully understood the difference between firmware and ROM. (I'm reading from Firmware V14.0.3.0.TKTINXM)
Thank you all for your help to teach this newbie.
2) Can you tell me about your experience with the XiaoMiTool V2
This tool is unofficial, use Xiaomi official tools.
For a precise answer, please indicate the model of your device (my phone/characteristics/model).
Example:2201116SG, 2201116SR, 2201116SC, 2201116PG,21091116C.
Thank you for your answer!
If I get it then, as an unofficial app, is it wholly discouraged?
My phone's model is 2201116SI

One more question: Soc Mediatek or Qualcomm?
Edit:
Currently no Miui 14 Android 13
If you want to change version:
1/
Unlock bootloader
Xiaomi Community
new.c.mi.com
Apply for unlocking Mi devices
en.miui.com
2/use Miflash with a fastboot rom (TGZ).
(I'm reading from Firmware V14.0.3.0.TKTINXM)not for your device!!!

I really thought that because of the V14.0.3.0.TKTINXM it was for mine. I think I don't yet get how the firmware work then.
Qualcomm SD695
I do get how to change. My real question is about security, benefits, and updates. I understand that changing ROM region is a risk, so I want to evaluate and advice in order to do so.
This firmware (to simplify: serves to make the connection with the hardware), which is specific to each model is for a Xiaomi 11i / Hypercharge India, code name (pissarro).
The basis of the stock rom is the same, the only differences are:
Themes, GDPR/GDPR for the EEA, call recorder for Indonesian/Taiwan, and some region-specific apps.
You can re-lock the bootloader on all versions except Chinese.
The missing 4g bands on your version will always be missing regardless of the version you install.
The only risk is you.
Thank you so much NOSS8 for your answer! I think I will change to the global version just to get the MIUI14 updates.
Thanks for explaining firmware, and throwing in the 4G bands part (which was a concern too).
Thankks!!!
I know this has already been answered but I wanted to drop a quick tip;
You shouldn't search for firmwares based on market names cause Xiaomi uses similar market names for different devices in different countries. You should instead use device codenames.
The rom you were planning to flash was for "pissarro" and it's a different device entirely.
The device you have is "veux" , the Indian version might be called "peux" but you don't have to think to worry about the codename differences, it's inherently the same device, the only difference is it lacks NFC and Xiaomi has been doing this thing for a long time, releasing variants with slight hardware differences depending on the regional market, they also build the same rom that's flashable on both variants of the devices (nfc/non-nfc model).
You can flash Global Miui 14 whenever they release it for this device, there won't be any problems except that you won't be able to pass the safetynet whether you lock the bootloader or not, you'll have to rely on the safetynetfix Magisk module from Displax to pass the safetynet.
