dear all.
I have Indian Redmi Note 3 ( Snapdragon version, 3 gb 32GB), I am on stock MIUI Global StableVersion 7.2.5.0(LHOMIDA) . I want to flash Global Developer ROM on this .
I have a few queries
Q.1- Can I directly flash global developer ROM through Updater App without any boot loader unlocked issue or should I unlock the boot loader first?
Q.2 How can I flash Chinese ROM? The reason behind this is that Chinese version supports CDMA data facility which is missing in my global stable version at present I am using TATA cdma SIM in SIM slot 1, wherein voice call and sms works without any problem but data is not working probably because MEID is missing in global ROM ,so i guess that Chinese ROM will solve this issue. )
kindly help
warm regards

With regards to your first query..You should go with the official way of unlocking bootloader thought it takes time ..some people who did the unofficial unlocking method ended up bricking their phones..I unlocked it officially then flashed twrp and flashed global dev rom
@vish9180- thanks mate. Is it necessary to unlock it?
Happy to help..It is...I didn't want to run the risk of bricking it like the other guys...so I went the official route...took me 4 days ..since I'm some what active on miui forum..participate in miui forum and they'll clear your unlock request faster.

It's definitely unofficial ROM flashed by the reseller.
Flash Global Stable ROM using edl mode.
Sent from my kenzo using XDA-Developers mobile app
I had 7.1.99.99 on mine, which is also a vendor ROM. Managed to install Global Stable 7.2.1.8, then got an OTA update to 7.2.3.0, but I can't switch to Global Dev, nor to China Stable or China Dev.
I also unlocked the bootloader when I installed 7.1.8.0, but now it seems to be locked again. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

You cant flash China Dev/Stable because they are different from global stable...you could flash from global stable to global dev and vice versa...but make sure take backup and then factory reset and then flash the rom..Do at your own risk you can dload from http://en.miui.com/download-301.html make sure dload correct version
I don't see why I wouldn't be able. Still, I can't flash the global dev version, either. Why would that be?
How do I flash using edl mode?
I installed adb and turned on USB debugging.
I ran the adb reboot edl and my phone reset and a driver was installed. I feel like I am on the right track, but I don't know what the next step is.

u can flash using the mi flash tool , the updater tool may or may not help. for the updater tool u will need a recovery rom and for the mi flash tool u will require a fastboot rom.
@cletusarrarr- is it necessary to unlock it first?
Yes you can! In my opinion, you unlock bootloader and flash recovery Cottage, than, you flash ROM zip over recovery.

no it isnt to install the factory roms, it is necessary to unlock only if you want custom rom or if you want TWRP and then a proper root
So that means that I can update to global ROM using inbuilt updater app.?
Kindly clarify once again as somebody in the forum said that it is mandatory to go for bootloader unlock before update?
I don't think you should unlock bootloader or install Chinese rom I have been using reliance cdma in redmi note 3 India without any trick just use sim slot 2 for cdma
Definitely it will work just make sure remove sim from slot 1 n after putting n reboot ing with cdma sim then only put any sim in slot 1
Hope this will resolve the issue
OK guys.. Here is an update. I flashed beta developer ROM easily over stable global ROM through updater app but my CDMA data issue was not solved. CDMA data is still not working.
I am in the planning to flash Chinese ROM . let me know if I flash Chinese ROM will it show MEID number as global ROM shows zero(0) in MEID field.
I also have the same problem. I am also using Reliance CDMA and the data is not working. I am still on MIUI Global 7.2.2.0 (LHOMIDA). I have not yet updated it to 7.2.2.5 because everything is working fine and the phone is in pink of its health. I heard that 7.2.2.5 is causing some WiFi related issue. If the data is still not working then there is no point in taking the risk.
I am still searching If there is any way to start the data in Reliance CDMA.
Hello everyone i've been looking for the last few days on the internet about the way xiaomi devices can be updated manually. I found out that phones with carrier specific roms (like my mi 8) do not verify pure global roms via recovery method. My questions is if there is any work around to flash via recovery a global rom "mixm" to a global but carrier specific rom "itti", because i don't want to unlock this phone and go with the fastboot method.
Thank you in advance
Hi,
I bought a Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G off ebay which was advertised as the Global model but it appears i have the Japanese Global model instead (M2101K9R) whereas the actual Global model is M2101K9G. Would anyone know if it is possible for me to convert this over to the proper RKIMIXM Global ROM (M2101K9G) and keep my bootloader locked in the process by just flashing the fastboot ROM for Global? In other words i would like to fully convert it across to the global M2101K9G model.
i have read that flashing a Global ROM on a device for a different region can brick the phone if the bootloader is then relocked after flashing the Global ROM but wasn't sure if this was more in reference to going from the Chinese version of phone to Global rather then my situation which is going from Global Japan ROM to Global ROM.
I understand I can do this if I kept the bootloader unlocked after the flash but was hoping the bootloader would accept the Global ROM and would still work after relocking the bootloader.
Thanks in advance.
Seeing that i have my Mi account binded to my phone, i will wait another 90 hrs to be able to unlock bootloader and will attempt to answer my own question. Atleast when i relock bootloader after flashing the global ROM and worse case scenario it fails i can unlock the bootloader again and reflash the original Japanese Global MIUI for the device
dont risk your device and instead use "xiaomi eu", that way you can upgrade your device without the risk of locking the bootloader in the process

Hey, since you have the Japanese model, is the camera shutter sound always on? Even if you pick a different region for MIUI? I'm considering the Japanese model and am also curious if it would be possible to convert to Global, though like you said there's a risk of bricking so don't do it if that's a real concern. If you do try it though, let us know how it goes.
Good news, after unlocking my bootloader after 7 day waiting period i was able to successfully flash MIUI Global RKIMIXM ROM. Also relocked bootloader with Xiaomi Flash tool and the bootloader had no issues accepting global ROM.
it should be noted there's been alot of misinformation regarding unlocking/locking bootloaders and changing regions. As long as the first unlocking of bootloader was performed by your own MI account binded to the phone then after 7 day waiting period is over you can unlock/relock bootloader as often as you want immediately with no additional waiting period required. So if you have the issue where you're stuck in recovery after flashing another region ROM and accidentally relocked your bootloader in the process, it's no big deal as you just load phone into fastboot mode and unlock the bootloader again then either keep bootloader unlocked and flash whatever you want or download the proper ROM for your region then flash and relock bootloader again to be back to official stock.
Only thing is model appears to still be detected as M2101K9R in settings. Unsure if this will affect future OTA updates etc. Will provide update when i know more.

It can be muted by setting.(Any ROM/Version/Model)
Setting → Additional Settings → 'Region'
Japan or Korea = Always On
Other = Can be changed from camera settings

I ended up flashing back to Japanese ROM as realistically i had no issues with it. Was more curious to see if i could fully convert it over to Global ROM but it seems the model number as shown in Settings is hard coded perhaps in the bootloader or somewhere else and still displayed M2101K9R so i wasn't comfortable using the M2101K9G global ROM.
As for the camera shutter sound on Japanese ROM i just checked and there was a setting in the camera app itself (Camera>Settings>Shutter Sound) and you can toggle it off to silence the shutter sound.
Please, did you notice any difference between the Global ROM and the Japanese ROM? I mean in terms of settings, speed, battery etc.

I am a Japanese user using Mi 11 Lite 5G. The difference in hardware is that it is equipped with Felica, a near-range wireless communication standard developed by Sony. This is used in Japan for payments on public transportation and in stores. The difference in the software is that it takes a long time for software updates to be delivered. As the ROM is optimized for Japan, it takes longer to receive updates than the global version.
I also have japanese version but I am from México and I am using xiaomi.eu beacuse of the publicity from xiaomi stock roms, and it works flawless and felica is not used in my country so, I am fine, but... One friend of mine has the chinese global version and the cameras look sooo diferent, better in Jaoan version, even video 60fps has more stabilization. Just to say.
I have a new Redmi Note 12Pro+ which has the Chinese MIUI ROM (14.0.3) installed. Is it possible to replace this ROM with the international version? If the answer is yes is an instruction post available?
Also for those who might know is this the correct ROM as refers only to Redmi Note 12?
To switch from Chinese rom to global one you have to unlock the bootloader first , the wait time for unlocking bootloader should be 7-14 days .
Also your phone is note 12 pro + and the note 12 is definitely different both hardware and software wise
Hope it helps.
Thanks for your reply. Just to better my understanding, unlocking the bootloader is the same as what used be called rooting the phone? Why 7-14 days?
Updated my search and I think this is the right one.
unlocking the bootloader need a tool called MITOOL,this tool do not work util the phone login a account and keep 7-14 days.
it is a rule set by the XiaoMi LTD
