Hi y'all!
I'm really having trouble flashing an official stable rom on my device. The rom archive is miui_HM3_V7.3.2.0.LHPCNDD_6a5e1bc33c_5.1.zip.
I downloaded it and copied it to a folder (downloaded_rom) on the internal storage of my redmi 3. After selecting it in the updater app I get asked whether it's OK to delete all data, because the rom I'm updating to is older than the one installed. My phone's miui version is MIUI 77. Stable 77.1.1.0 (LHPCNCK). The doble 7s seem odd to me and may be part of my problem (I bought the phone like that). Then, the device is rebooting and I can see some kind of progression bar for a couple of seconds on the botton of the screen but then it just reboots into android and nothing changed
I also tried to flish it via Mi PC suite. Here, after connecting the device in fastboot mode, I got the message that my device isn't supported.
I also believe that the bootloader is locked and I already got the "permission" from xiaomi to unlock it but I had no luck with this either. The Mi unlock tool is telling me, that the "current account is different from the account info on the device" which wasn't the case after I double checked.
Am I missing something here?
kind regards

yes.
because you are currently in modified rom (rom supplier or seller, etc, etc) you cannot update or do anything about it
flash the official rom using miflash method
after that you can update using updater program

I'll try that and report back. Thanks!
Okay, finally I managed to flash my phone with the newest miui.eu rom. What I did was:
- Flashing the official Xiaomi Rom (MiFlash package) via MiFlash (1st try in Win32 wasn't working. 2nd try on Win64 did the job)
- I had to update to the newest official stable OTA, because somehow, I wasn't able to unlock my bootloader with the older version.
- I unlocked the bootloader using the MiFlashUnlocker.
- Updated to the official MIUI 8 dev rom using updater app on my phone
- On dev rom I granted root acces to flashify and flashed the twrp recovery image on my device (which gets wiped from my device every time I reboot - anyone knows why??)
- Reboot into recovery and flash the MIUI.eu zip which is now running on my device.
Thanks for the help guys!
Hi.
I am having the same problem, with pre-installed rom: MIUI 77.1.1.0 Stable. The updater app obviously doesn't work (now i know why) and the MiFlash software doesn't seem to work either. It doesn't recognise the phone, browsing to the downloaded rom does nothing. Am i missing something?
Update, it now recognises the phone, but miflash is saying it can't find the file specified (0x80070002: Execute flash_all.bat)
Thanks for any assistance you can give.
Update 2. Just found out you need a different version of the Rom for fastboot. available from http://en.miui.com/a-234.html for anyone searching.
Okay so Miflash began the process when i had the Fastboot rom, but failed at about 2 percent as the device is locked.
Although i have permission the Mi unlock tool won't unlock my phone as it says the accounts don't match that on the phone, although i have quadruple checked them.
Research suggests it might be a problem with the custom rom on my phone, or that i need to be on the China Dev rom to unlock?
But i can't flash the China Dev Rom!!!
Is there any way to get my device to stock rom?
Sorted.
For the benefit of anyone searching, i followed the instructions here: http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=redirect&goto=findpost&ptid=242867&pid=4510751
hey freinds.......i have jst got my new kenzo (sd).........i have applied for unlocking permisions and got approval also......................but whenever i try to unlock my phone using unlock tool it shows id mismatch and gets stuck at 50%..............................:crying:
im on stock miui 7.5 global stable rom (lollipop)...............du i need to flash any file/ dev rom/ chinese rom before unlocking...............................
this method worked for me when i was on V8.0.6.0.LHOMIDG MIUI8.
1- you need to switch from global stable to global developer rom, download the latest global developer rom on android lollipop(5.1).
unfortunately xda won't let me include links,so google this : miui_HMNote3ProGlobal_6.8.18_d0da79d09e_5.1.zip
2- after downloading the rom,rename the file name to Update.zip then copy to internal storage(in downloaded_rom folder).
3- open updater app, select choose update package, go to downloaded_rom folder and select Update.zip. It will verify your rom and install it.
4- download the latest global developer rom from en miui , repeat the steps 2 and 3.
5- sign in to your mi account on your device(enable find device),also on i.mi.com(to check your device). enable developer options,OEM unlocking and USB debugging.
6- download the latest version of MIFlashUnlock tool and log into your account
7- turn off your device and go to fastboot (press and hold volume - and power button at the same time), connect your device to your PC, click unlock(on MIFlashUnlock tool), after your bootloader successfully unlocked, click on reboot.
It is simple

I don't think so, If you're already on dev - you need to perform the steps 5 to 7. If it didn't work,try to log into your account with your phone number(for account on your phone,i.mi.com and MIFlashUnlock tool) - also check your mi account info, the country you choose should be the same as you phone number, don't choose another country!

I understood that from your first reply,no,you don't need to downgrade.It's recommended to do this unlocking process on the latest rom. just follow my last comment,specially logging from your phone number not your email into your account...also perform factory reset just to be 100% sure.
for comprehensive information about the unlocking process,check the forum on en miui and look for the following threads :

This error(on updater app) happens if you're trying to switch from global stable(lollipop) to global developer(marshmallow),follow the instructions. Download the latest global developer on LOLLIPOP and try. After you successfully switched to global developer then download the latest global developer(marshmallow).

How can I know that a ROM is based on android 5 or 6. en.miui.com is very confusing.

The Ultimate Guide for Redmi K20 Pro [Raphael]
Fake Global ROM to Chinese ROM to Global ROM/EU/Mi-Room
ATTENTION!*All that you will do with the phone is guided by this guide - it lies in the area of your personal responsibility only.*Neither I nor other members of the forum, not the administration of the forum are responsible.*
If you do not understand something and the written guide below - contact the LS to knowledgeable colleagues, as I did!*Hide created for the Chinese version of the phone K20 Pro - Global ROM.*(for India it will not work!)*
I will explain in stages what to do, giving my comments in my simple language: what?*What for?*Why?*Don't be scared that there are a lot of points - I tried to chew everything up.
So what do we have?*
• K20 Pro - Global ROM (Installed by the Chinese firmware, with no updates, poor translation, with not working Gpay)*
• You must create an official mi account and link the device to it.*
What do we need?:*
• Installation Recovery - Orange fox (Advanced replacement of standard Recovery, and installation of any firmware) - Wildly necessary thing!*
• Installing the firmware MI Room 9.7.4*
• Proper operation of the GPAY through the patch*
Introduction)*
So, you got a phone from China.*What do you have in your hands?*This is the device on which the Chinese put the left firmware and at the same time did not unlock the bootloader officially - which is not compatible with the transition to any, really good firmware.*
Before we begin - the most important thing!*(further quote from the forum):
ATTENTION!*CHINESE VERSION REDMI K20 PRO CAN BE BLOCKED ONLY ON THE CHINESE FIRMWARE!*Before carrying out any operation, read the materials that are referenced in the header themes, check Search by topic, and if not found the answer to your question, or do not understand something, ask more experienced users.*
Do you understand?*Now read again 20 and memorize this phrase!*
INSTALLATION OF THE CHINESE OFFICIAL FIRMWARE AND LOCKER DOWNLOAD AND UNLOCK!*
What for?*Your phone needs to be unlocked officially.*To do this, you must put the official firmware and file for unlocking officially.*
What is needed (all in the header):*
•Firmware file - *10.3.6.0 China Fastboot
• Program MiFlash 2018.11.15.0 (we need administrator rights) - a program to install Fastboot-type firmware and lock the phone loader.*
• Driver for computer - ADB Driver Lite
• Program - miflash_unlock*
• Phone*
• Type C Cable*
1) Download all of the above and check that everything downloaded*in the right “size”.*
2) Install MiFlash 2018.11.15.0*on the C drive:
3) Go to MiFlash 2018.11.15.0 - it will offer to install the drivers.*Do not hesitate to install everything - exit the program!*
4) Install ADB Driver Lite (by default it is set by MiFlash but will not be worse if you additionally install the latest driver from the header)
5) - CORRECTLY unpacking the firmware 10.3.6.0 China Fastboot!*By default, you download it with the extension .tgz!*The file you downloaded will be called raphael_images_V10.3.6.0.PFKCNXM_20190516.0000.00_9.0_cn_ed862b8182.tgz*
- Unzip this .tgz file and get a file with the .tar extension.*The full name will be - raphael_images_V10.3.6.0.PFKCNXM_20190516.0000.00_9.0_cn_ed862b8182.tar.*
- Unzip this .tar file and get a folder named raphael_images_V10.3.6.0.PFKCNXM_20190516.0000.00_9.0_cn.*Here we will work with this folder in the future!*You need to move it to drive C:!*It is important!*
6) Switch the phone to debug mode via USB.*(I think there will be no problems here)
7) Transfer the phone to FASTBOOT mode.*Turn off the device.*Clamp the power button + volume rocker down.*If there is a hare and the inscription Fastboot then everything is OK!*
8) In MiFlash, press the Select button, specify the path to the folder with the firmware raphael_images_V10.3.6.0.PFKCNXM_20190516.0000.00_9.0_cn and click ok.*
9) Something like this should appear in the line:*С: \ raphael_images_V10.3.6.0.PFKCNXM_20190516.0000.00_9.0_cn
10) Put a clean all and lock checkbox at the bottom.*This parameter means that the*
phone will be erased while all data is erased, and the bootloader is locked.*(only for the Chinese version of the phone)*
11) We connect the phone (in fastboot mode) to the computer through the official drawstring.*And without any USB hubs and adapters!*
12) Press the Refresh button.
13) If everything is correct then a line should appear with the id of the phone and the status ready.*
14) So, the phone is recognized.*The path to the folder with the firmware is specified.*Galka clean all and lock costs.*Press the flash button.*
15) The phone starts to sew!*Do not unplug the power cord!*don't touch anything at all.*Do not breathe!*The firmware time is about 10 minutes.*
16) At the end of the firmware, complete will appear in the line with the execution status and the phone will restart (up to 10 minutes) to the initial welcome screen.*Disconnect the phone.*
17) Hooray you flashed to the Chinese firmware and officially blocked the phone.*Let's start the activation and application for unlocking.
18) The first thing that will meet you is the screen in Chinese.*With two button in Chinese.*Push first you are asked to enter something ... This is the password from your mi account.*We enter.*
19) Tap on the second button connect to the Wi-Fi or skip.*
20) Choose the English language.*Customize your phone.*
21) Transfer the phone to the developer mode.*In the settings of the developer, we go into the unlock status (I don’t remember exactly how to speak English).*We see the closed lock, below we see the button.*Click on it!*And we will register the phone for the official unlock (Wi-Fi should be turned off and mobile networks on).*
22) Next, go to the mi account and check that your mobile phone is tied.*Are you convinced?*I recommend to look at the corresponding topic on the forum with the video.
23) On the PC, run miflash_unlock.*Log in to your mi account.*The phone is transferred to the Fastboot mode (point 7) and connected to the computer.*Press the unlock button.*At the same time, we confirm a bunch of times that we are sure that we want to do this.*All your data will be destroyed.*
24) The PC starts to unlock and at some point gives a message that the unlock failed and should be tried again after 168 hours.
25) Congratulations, you activated the counter before unlocking.*You walk with the phone 7 days on the Chinese firmware.*Is it hard?*Well no.*You can take the apk with Google services from the page on this forum and install what you need.*
26) It's been 168 hours, and you're ready to unlock.*
27) But before you do ... Update your phone over the air to the latest version - nowhere on the forum it is not written (I have not seen) but this is important.*I will explain later why!*Remember this item.*
28) Start and repeat paragraph 23. And lo and behold!*The unlock process has begun.*And at the end there is an inscription that the phone is unlocked.
29) Now, when you boot your phone, you should see Unlocked.*Check out what it is!*
30) Configure the phone again.*Turn on USB debugging mode.*
31) Further, in my opinion the most dreary, because the forum has a lot of conflicting information.*I will tell you how I did.*But before continuing, I can say that since you have already received unlock, it is almost impossible to turn the phone around (but everything is possible)*
32) So, download three things:*
- TWRP-3.3.1*
- OrangeFox R10.0 Recovery*
- MI Room 9.7.4 firmware
33) Everything that you downloaded in the zip archives.
34) Unzip -TWRP-3.3.1 to drive C. Transfer the phone to Fastboot (item 7) and connect it to the computer.*We find in the unpacked folder TWRP file with the extension .bat.*in different versions of TWRP called differently.*I called Flash_twrp.bat*
35) And before*proceeding, I’ll*remind you about clause 27).*The fact is that I could not install TWRP without updating over the air.*Therefore, you must first install the update.*And on the firmware 10.3.6.0 China Fastboot.*- It will not work to put TWRP and you will have to do a lot again*
36) Start and get the menu in my Russian language, where we select the auto installation (1).*After a couple of seconds, your phone should reboot into TWRP recovery.*There we choose the language if asked.*
37) And
so, we are in the main menu of TWRP.*We need to take a series of actions*(in a strict order)
38) Go to the Wipe point and select FORMAT DATA -> svayp -> type yes.*The formatting process takes a couple of seconds.*What does this item do in my understanding?*He decrypts the data on the phone, which is necessary to throw on the phone firmware and Orange fox.*
39) Exit the main menu by clicking REBOOT Recovery.*The phone should reboot into the main menu again.*And on the PC, it should be defined as a phone with Internal storage.*Go to the Internal storage on the PC.*See the TWRP folder?*If yes, then everything is OK!*
40) On the phone, go to the Wipe point and select Advanced wipe -> svayp -> select all the items*except System and OTG* svayp
41) Exit the main menu, press REBOOT -> Recovery.*The phone should reboot into the main menu again.*
42) On the PC, go to the phone -> Internal storage and next to the TWRP folder, throw the downloaded OrangeFox R10.0 recovery directly into the zip archive.*
43) On the phone, go to the Install item and see our Orange Fox.*Choose it.*AND THERE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT!*He will ask you to install two checkboxes before installation: one of them Verification of the ZIP signature (in English) and so this checkbox must be removed, otherwise the error will be.*We start the installation.*Your phone must reboot into Orange FOX.*
44) So what is Orange Fox?*This same TWRP is simply much more convenient and stable.*
45) On the PC, go to the phone -> Internal storage and next to the TWRP folder, throw the downloaded firmware to the worlds.
46) In Orange Fox, select this firmware, also remove the checkmark ZIP signature check (in English).*And start the process of installing the firmware.*
47) Hooray you got the best, in my opinion, firmware)*
48) Disconnect from the computer.*Customize your phone.*
49) Installing a patch for Gpay is easy.*Straight from the phone, download the patch file.*
50) Put the phone in orange fox recovery mode.*Turn off the device.*We press the power button + volume rocker UP (not to be confused with the power button + volume rocker DOWN for Fastboot boot mode)*
51) In the Downloads folder we see our patch and install (also remove the Check Signature ZIP checkbox).*
52) Congratulations!

Yes, you can flash it with TWRP. That's the multilanguage rom with Google Play preinstalled and without the bloatware of the Chinese version.

Hi. I really appreciate the post.. just one question though? What are the firmwares for? Coz if I am not mistaken, to be able to install twrp and root, all I need is to unlock the bootloader then flash the twrp.img. Please enlighten me.. thank you..

Also, will bootloader unlocking and installing twrp wipe everything I have in my internal storage?

The firmwares are the stock roms, should you need to recover the phone. The fastboot ROM is the absolute failsafe and flashes almost all partitions. This can be updated using scripts within the package or using the Mi flash tool. The recovery roms will just update the system partition and flashed using recovery, either stock or TWRP or any other recovery.
Installing TWRP won't touch anything on the phone except the recovery partition. However bootloader unlocking will perform a factory reset. In theory the internal storage should remain untouched, but best to back it up.

Hi all from Noob member.
I am wanting to update my Redmi Note 4 Snapdragon from stock MIUI Global 11.0.2 as no OTA updates for a long time.
Having searched the forums I see a lot of guides are from 2017 so need up to date help.
I understand first step is to install unlock bootloader and install TWRP.
Q1 I need a recommended guide for 2021. I have found this but the advice is slightly different from that on the TWRP Redmi page e.g. regarding how to deal with DM Verity. These terms are all new to me and somewhat confusing.
Q2 Will I be able to backup the factory ROM in case it all goes wrong and I need to get it back to the current state?
Any other advice gratefully received.
Hi. I have recently installed LineageOS 18.1 on my Redmi Note 4 Global (Snapdragon) and have written a detailed guide for myself, in case I would need to do it again. At first, I had problems with fingerprint not working even though I have installed everything correctly. I have fixed that issue with the help of LOS 18.1 main tester, and I have also written myself a guide for that fix.
If you would like to install LineageOS on your mido, I could share the guide with you.
Regarding your question 2, you can always make a backup of your current ROM before installing customs ROMs, and usually backups work fine, although I do not have any experience with that yet, so your mileage may vary.
Also, if your device is not bricked after tinkering with custom ROMS, you can always use latest fastboot MIUI ROM for your device, and flash it with official Mi Flash tool to get back to MIUI.
First step, as always, is to unlock your bootloader with Mi Unlock tool, which you can find here:
Apply for permissions to unlock Mi devices
en.miui.com
Read this FAQ as well:
https://c.mi.com/thread-2262302-1-0.html
By the way, bootloader on my mido was unlocked instantly with that tool, I did not have to wait at all.
Hi Rigadelt
Many thanks for the reply. I would indeed be interested in seeing your guide if it is not too much trouble.
Everything working correctly including the fingerprint reader would be a must for me. Glad to hear you fixed it.
Good to know you can make backups - I'm assuming this is via TWRP?
Appreciate the tip about fastboot MIUI ROMs - I think I have found them before on the official site when I searched a year or so ago about flashing a new ROM. It seems things are a bit more developed now.
Thanks for getting me pointed in the right direction!

No worries, just a disclaimer - I am not responsible if you somehow break your phone while following this guide.
I am also a noob on custom ROMs, but I have done the exact same steps, and my phone appears to be working fine, so you should be all right too. After all, these steps are almost identical to all custom ROMs installation instructions, the difference is that this time you will need to use OrangeFox recovery instead, because LOS 18.1 works better with it.
I have written this guide while following OrangeFox recovery guides, and getting help from Redmi Note 4 users on Telegram groups.
First install ADB + Fastboot in your PC (I assume you use Windows 10).
Download these files:
SDK platform tools: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
Google USB Driver: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/usb_driver_r13-windows.zip
I am not sure if Google USB Driver is necessary, but install it anyway because I had it installed too.
For installation instructions, use the attached "ADB Fastboot installation.txt" file.
You can check this video for visual guide as well:
After that, unlock your bootloader with Mi Unlock tool.
Confirm that bootloader is unlocked on your Redmi Note 4 via ADB + Fastboot, following this article (go to PC section, ignore Android phone):
How to check if bootloader is unlocked or locked on Android
How to check if bootloader is unlocked or locked on Android
www.addictivetips.com
At this point, if everything is working fine and your phone is indeed unlocked, I recommend backing up important data (photos, videos, documents, SD Card, etc.) from your phone to PC, Cloud or other safe storage.
Next, download these files and put them in your SD Card or internal phone storage (for example, Download folder). I recommend formatting SD Card and putting the files on it, but you can use internal storage as well.
OrangeFox recovery (R11.0) for mido:
https://dl.orangefox.download/5f14b74f26d98d90b476a532
Latest mido firmware (you will probably not need it, but have it just in case): https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/d...4XGlobal_V11.0.2.0.NCFMIXM_83170d3e3a_7.0.zip
LineageOS 17.1 with 4.9 kernel (you will need to install it first):
https://github.com/zeelog/OTA/releases/download/28.0/lineage-17.1-20201215-UNOFFICIAL-4.9-mido.zip
LineageOS 18.1:
https://github.com/zeelog/OTA/releases/download/31.0/lineage-18.1-20210107-UNOFFICIAL-mido.zip
GApps (FlameGApps "basic" is recommended for LOS 18.1):
https://sourceforge.net/projects/flamegapps/files/arm64/android-11/BETA/2020-12-29
I will continue the guide in the next message.
Now, make sure that your phone is charged and has more than 80% battery (just to be safe).
Also note that after the following step, you won't be able to boot to MIUI anymore, so make sure you have made a backup of your files.
Install OrangeFox recovery using this guide:
Installing OrangeFox Recovery
wiki.orangefox.tech
Then, follow the instructions written in the attached "Readme - LOS 17.1 and 18.1 installation" text file.
If you installed LOS 18.1 successfully but your fingerprint does not work anymore (although it worked fine on MIUI and LOS 17.1), then you will need to go back to latest mido MIUI ROM with Mi Flash tool and then follow the instructions in "Fingerprint fix and MIUI errors" text file.
Good luck. If you have any questions, I recommend creating a Telegram account and joining discussions on Redmi Note 4/4x groups.
Thanks for this !!!
I was going to ask about the orangefox option, as some guides I have found suggest this.
I had looked on the LineageOS page and see their listed version for Redmi note 4 is 16.0, so looks like you are leading the way with your method.
I'm going to take my time and digest all this excellent info you have provided.
Great tip on the telegram group !

You're welcome.
Just wanted to let you know that the main tester of LineageOS 18.1 as of recently recommends using FlameGApps "basic" instead of NikGapps. Apparently some users experienced failed OTA updates (bootloops) due to problems associated with NikGapps.
Download it here:
FlameGApps - Browse /arm64/android-11/BETA/2020-12-29 at SourceForge.net
A Google Apps installer package for devices running on arm64 platform
sourceforge.net
Also, I have updated the installation instructions a bit, so I recommend re-downloading both attached text files above.
Some new info regarding LOS 18.1 updating:
Dirty flash method
1) Download the latest ROM udpate zip file and save it in phone's internal storage or SD Card.
2) Turn off your phone and reboot to recovery.
3) Go to Wipe and wipe:
Dalvik / ART Cache, Cache, System, Vendor
-- DO NOT WIPE "DATA" or "INTERNAL STORAGE" --
4) Ignore "Reboot System" option.
5) Go back to OrangeFox recovery, select latest ROM Update zip and flash it.
6) Ignore "Wipe Caches" and "Reboot System" options.
7) Go back to OrangeFox recovery, select GApps zip and flash it.
8) After flashing, tap "Wipe Caches". Wait for it to wipe and then ignore "Reboot System" option.
9) Go back to OrangeFox recovery, go to Menu, tap on Reboot, then Reboot to Recovery.
10) When the phone successfully reboots to OrangeFox recovery, go to recovery Menu, then Reboot, and Reboot to System.
OTA Update
1) Do not change anything in OrangeFox recovery OTA update options, leave all settings default (OTA disabled). To check if OTA is disabled in the recovery, do this:
1a) Turn off your phone and boot to OrangeFox recovery.
1b) Go to OrangeFox recovery Menu, tap on the Gear symbol in the upper right corner and select OTA & ROM.
1c) Make sure that OTA is disabled (enable OTA is greyed out)
1d) Go back to OrangeFox recovery Menu, then Reboot, and select Reboot to System.
2) Go to Settings, System, Advanced, Updater.
3) Tap on three dots in the upper right corner and select Preferences.
Preferences must be set like this:
* Auto updates check: Once a week
* Delete updates when installed: OFF
* Mobile data warning: ON
* Update recovery: OFF
If you can't disable "Update recovery" option in Updater preferences, then do not worry and leave it enabled. The stock recovery won't be updated (replaced) with LineageOS recovery even if this setting is enabled.
***--- OTA PROBLEMS ---***
In some (rare) cases OTA update might fail (usually due to GApps issues) causing your phone to bootloop, i.e. the phone gets stuck at LineageOS logo loading screen for a couple of minutes, and then reboots to recovery.
To solve this problem you need to install the update manually using Dirty flash method.
The downloaded OTA update file is in this location (in recovery):
root/data/LineageOS Update folder
You will have updated ROM without loosing any data.
Also, you can change GApps from NikGApps to FlameGApps or other GApps every time when you are using Dirty flash method to update your ROM.
Hi all,
please find attached the Havoc OS 3.8 custom ROM, Olivelite version, and Magisk 20.4 which you will need for installation also.
I am neither the creator of this ROM or anyhow involved with the team, nor do I take any responsibility for everything which might go wrong during installation.
How I got it to work:
1. Unlock your boot loader (you will find appropriate instructions here in the forum and elsewhere on the web, also on YouTube).
2. Ensure that you have the XiaoMi Flash tool and the latest stock rom available, to be able to recover you phone when you encounter issues.
Both can be found on the Xiaomi website.
3. Get the "minimal ADB and Fastboot" tools. You will find in the web.
4. Get TWRP (you will find out what this is and why you need it here in the forum). Take care that it is a version for your phone model, else worst case it will not work.
5. Put the attached files to an external SD card in your phone.
6. install TWRP. Boot into "Fastboot" mode and install TWRP with command "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img".
7. Boot into recovery mode - if yoiu did everything right, should be TWRP now
7a. Wipe - Format data - confirm with "Yes", then go back to main menu
7b. Wipe - advanced wipe - select all except the last 2 (expecially NOT "external SD" if you put your files on there),
go back to main menu
7c. Install - select location where you've put the "havoc 3.8 update.zip" and select the file, afterwards wipe Cache / Dalvik (TWRP will give you this option after install), DO NOT REBOOT
7d. Install - select location where you've put the "magisk v20.4.zip" and select the file, afterwards wipe Cache / Dalvik and then reboot to system.
Now, hopefully, congratulations and enjoy
If something happens and it will not work at all, search the web first for solutions and, if still does not work and you do not get along with it, do not worry. You can always go back to the Xiaomi original ROM with the XiaoMi Flash Tool. Phone must be in "Fastboot" mode for this. In the flash tool, select your ROM location (ideally in the root of your drive as this tool cannot interpret spaces in paths), then confirm and ensure that you have ticked "Clean all" in the bottom, NOT "clean all and lock" - else you will have to do the unlock procedure again.
Sometimes, you need the "permissiver v5.zip" which you will find on the web. In case the above does not work, you can try to install the Permissiver. I never needed it, and I'm using 2 Redmi Olivelite.
I just tried this and had a success message from TWRP about the Havoc 3.8 flash but the Majisk file had an error from within TWRP first time & then it installed after reboot. But I still go straight into TWRP after rebooting.
Right now I have TWRP on the device & a micro SD card to get files onto the device but no OS on it & no backup as one way or another I want a ROOTed OS & it was the Chinese version when I got the phone so useless to me anyway.
What's the best approach from here to get this thing running again?
Thanks!!! Thanks!!! Thanks!!! after trying to get a GSI rom run on my daugthers olivelite i finally got a new rom working. I don't know why last guides didn'twork for me actually a recently requested a boot.img patch but i managed to patch it myself after dealing with python. Now will try to update it to 3.12 i suppouse it iwll have many improvements. But this worked right out of the box for me. Just followed each step and good to go.
For anyone interested. its de 2Gb/32Gb Global Version. with 12.0.3 latest MIUI updated applied trough fastboot. I used OFOX to test it and it worked fine by now.
If you have guide to update HAVOC please point me in the right direction.
Thanks again
I got off .Havoc precisely because it did not have voLTE support & BT HS 's didn't work. Has anyone had any luck on these 2
I absolutely thank you for this rom, I can now miraculously play Asphalt 9 on high settings at 30ish fps while on miui it struggled on lowest settings, the UI is flawless but I only have one problem I can't send nor receive SMS and the phone sometimes reboots randomly but that cannot make me go back to miui since it's too heavy for my phone.
IS THERE any fix for not being able to receive or send SMS
I have a black screen [FIxed by installing OrangeFox recovery]
