Hi All,
Anyone had any success/know how to rollback from the beta to the last release version? Ideally without bootloader unlock
Cheers

The official bootloader unlock guide here http://en.miui.com/thread-202290-1-1.html states that "If you're using Redmi Note 3 Qualcomm version or Mi 5, you can unlock on MIUI Global Stable ROM"
1- Did anybody succeed in doing so?
2- After unlocking the official way, can I still flash the latest global stable? (assuming that point 1 is not possible and I have to flash the china dev) I read warnings everywhere not to do so to avoid boot loop, is this warning valid even when unblocked through the official way?
3- If I flash the latest global, will my bootloader get locked again?
I would like to unlock my bootloader to prepare for CM13 and in the meantime I want to keep running the global stable ROM.
Many thanks

I'm on Redmi Note 3 Qualcomm.
1 - For me, it only worked with the Global Dev ROM. You can switch from Global Stable without erasing any data though. I had the usual "never works on the first try"-stuff though, so I tried a lot of things and I can't say if being on Global Stable was one of the main issues.
2 - I read similar things, but also that you can OTA update without any problems when you are officially unlocked. I think the posts warning of bootloops concern the unofficial unlock only and it will happen if you forget to delete emmc_appsboot.mbn before flashing an official ROM.
3 - Shouldn't happen. Haven't tried it yet, but what would be the point of Xiaomi locking the bootloader again, just because you changed ROM versions.
So, #2 and #3 is guess work on my site. Hope someone else can chime in and give definitive answers. As of #1, hope it helps to know that Global Dev works fine. Or was there any reason you wanted to stay on Global Stable?
Hi there!
I just bought for a relative a Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x from a well known Chinese seller and wanted to ask you guys how to determine if my device has the official Xiaomi Rom installed or something else.
I would like to have the official Global Stable Rom / unlocked and with OTA updates (localized in Italian).
This is the info I see in the "About phone" page :
Model number: Redmi Note 4x
Android version: 6.0.1 MMB29M
Android security patch level: 2016-12-01
MIUI version: MIUI Global 8.1 | Stable 8.1.10.0.0 (MCFMIDI)
Baseband version: -8953_GEN_PACK-1.7628 9.1.76815.3
Kernel version: 3.18.24-perf-g37635be
Build number: MMB29M
Thank you!
8.1.10 is not an official xiaomi rom. You'll need to unlock the bootloader (check if already unlocked), and flash the global miui rom.
Thanks for the reply empy16.
But to unlock the bootloader I have to contact Xiaomi: should I just follow the steps described in the following thread: http://en.miui.com/thread-565784-1-1.html ?

First of all, check if the bootloader is already unlocked. Some of the chinese phones with a tampered MIUI came with the bootloader already unlocked. Use this procedure: http://en.miui.com/thread-279195-1-1.html
If the bootloader is still locked, use the link you provided to unlock it. And yes, you will have to apply for a permission, which might take up to 10*days.
Just flashed it thank you for the pointers!
Have a great weekend!

Fastboot method is for you, and there is no need to worry about ARB, and after unlocking bootloader you'll also be able to install xiaomi.eu!
Hi community,
I want to unlock the bootloader of my BLA-TL00. It is now running EMUI 8.1.0.351(C01).
Android Security Patch is Dec 5, 2018.
Is there any possible way to unlock it?
Thanks!
At the moment no, there's no way!
I'm planning on buying Mi 10 from China, then convert it into Global Rom / EU Rom. Does anyone know if flashing global rom will allow the device to receieve auto updates on the OS? Also will I be able to relock the bootloader after flashing the global rom?
Has anyone tried this? Thank you!
If you lock bootloader with Global rom your device will brick.
Flash global rom without lock. You can receive updates without any problems.

Can I flash eu rom in my Indian Mi10 with locked bootloader? If can, what's the procedure?
Not possible to flash any rom without unlock bootloader.
Will unlocking the bootloader break the FP scanner like it has on 2 other android 10 Chinese phones I've had?
I just got a mi 10 Pro yesterday and now I'm scared to try lok
