Yes, if I've understood you correctly
I was on the stock nougat Miui (sorry, idk the version of Miui 10) with unlocked bootloader but stock recovery.
Updated to the new stable pie (Miui global stable 10.1.3.0 PEJMIFI) by downloading the firmware and upgrading with System Update through settings
No problems
Edit- said above I was on stock nougat Miui - slip of the brain - meant Oreo obviously, but you knew that!

I'm currently in Version of MIUI 8.0.4.0 Global (MBFMIDG) And i want to update to MIUI 8.1.4.0 MBFMIDI. Hopefully its enough so you can help me
You can update to the latest MIUI version 8.2.4.0 MCFMIDL.
Download is here available: h++p://en.miui.com/thread-508000-1-1.html
And here is a short tutorial, use recovery method: h++p://en.miui.com/thread-307744-1-1.html
Is this for Redmi Note 4 (GLOBAL MTK Version)?
I'm sorry! No this version is for Note 4X Qualcomm.
But just download MIUI 8.1.4.0 MBFMIDI version, the update process is the same!
Yea i know, But the thing I'm scared to update with fastboot and recovery and my Bootloader isn't unlocked so i have no idea what i'm doing,
You could try to update version 8.1.7.0.MBFMIDI via updater app. Perhaps this fixes your issue.
Download: h++p://en.miui.com/download-309.html#455
Well that's nice they pushed out a new update today.....
Updating right now, Hopefully it fixes most of the bugs in 8.0.4.0
I'm using Kenzo.
I unlocked bootloader unofficially
installed latest TWRP
Flashed N Firmware from https://forum.xda-developers.com/red...-kate-t3507789
Tried Flashing RR Oreo, Firehound, Lineage 14.1, Omni 7.1, facing bootloops with all of them.
Although It boots without any problems on Lineage 13.0.
Thanks, Any help is appreciated.
Your firmware link ends in 404 page.
So don't know what firmware your using, there is no such thing as N firmware for the device.
As MIUI never released Nougat rom for the device.
Edit: - A google search showed me out of date CM firmware.
Get official firmware from this thread: -

I tried with 8.2.8 and 9.2.4 firmware from your link, but still no luck.
With Oreo rooms after it's done with boot animation, goes straight to TWRP.
Btw this is the N firmware I talked about.

Did you also use an Oreo Compatible TWRP, check your rom pages for which TWRP and Firmware required.
A flash of latest MIUI Original fastboot rom in EDL mode maybe required to get your device upto date.
Your firmware linked is definitely way out of date version. (12.04.2017).
Is your bootloader unlock officialy, if yes then flash the version with includes emmc_appsboot.mbn
I was on MIUI 10 Global Beta which seemed to be slow. So i flashed the DotOS v2.5 which is an Oreo 8.1.0. Treble Status = Supported. After using a month i felt that the battery drains a lot quicker in this rom. I badly want to revert back to MIUI 9. I am on Orange fox 3.2.3 recovery. Will flashing the MIUI 9 hard brick my phone? Its a noob questions. Please answer me only if you have tried.
Worked for me
Hi there,
if you're using the tools and instructions provided by xiaomi you should be fine. Have fun!
Cheers

Read point #3 here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76885728&postcount=3
Off course you can, but be advised the custom twrp will be replaced by stick recovery
Use Fastboot method and your phone will be new and clean .
But you can try other Custom Roms, there a lot of Roms out there.
Just check for bugs and features accordingly
Don't flash any recovery, just install the rom from fastboot, everything will be stock after that.
Of course you can revert back. No way you can hard brick your device if it's a clean flash be it MiUi or aosp. If you listen to a ROM tester's advice I recommend you to flash latest Orange Fox recovery then Xiaomi EU ROM which are always good, trustable and bloatware free. They're stable and up to date. I'm highly against stock MiUi ROMs for several reasons for example Chinese or Google bloatware, lots of them according to which MiUi ROM you flash (Global or China).
Hi!
Before attempting anything I wanted to ask this here:
I have a non-rooted, completely stock Mi Pad 4 bought from Gearbest. It is the international version (Model name: M1806D9W) that came with Google Apps, already with english language, etc. It currently runs MIUI Global 9.6 | Stable 9.6.7.0.0(ODJCNFD) (Android 8.1.0 OPM1.171019.019)
I read online that MIUI 10 should be available for global versions which I think mine is? But yet system updates tell me there are no updates available.
So here's my question: What is the simplest most straightforward way to upgrade to MIUI 10?
I see I can download ROMs from threads here and other places online but I want to make 100% sure of which one should I get.
Bonus question: Any way of backuping everything so I don't have to re-install, reconfigure, re-place my apps icons, etc?
Thanks so much!
pretty sure the international version that your reseller claim is false.. there are no international version now.. they probably loaded an "international modified" rom .. highly recommend you to flash xiaomi EU rom already comes with prebuilt playstore if you ur bootloader is already unlocked. if not, flash official chinese miui 10 rom and they are many guides to get playstore on chinese rom as well.

Ok I see! So once I upgrade to MIUI 10 I will have OTA updates then?
This is the one I need right? https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-pad-4/how-to/rom-miui-10-xiaomi-eu-links-t3864882
Also is there any way of restoring my apps, settings, etc like it is on MIUI 9 right now? OR will I really need to start all over again?
EDIT: I don't believe my Mi Pad 4 is rooted. This seems like good instructions on how to root it and flash a new rom? https://en.miui.com/thread-3196420-1-1.html
Thanks so much!
i just flashed my mi pad 4 . It had the same rom, just modified rom to include the playstore,
The bootloader is already unlocked.
just boot to fast boot. volume key + power
flash twrp - i used twrp installer bat from here en.miui.com/thread-3196420-1-1.html
once boots twrp, then flash miui 10 - androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=281632
job done.

yeah the link is correct, with xiaomi Eu rom you can still get official updates, maybe just slight delay from official chinese stream. but that's the best support we have so far for international miui roms now. the check update seems to be quite buggy on xiaomi eu rom, sometime it downloads but fails on completion.. just try again.. 2nd try is the charm as always haha. if not you can download the rom and dirty flash no problem, i was on beta previously so maybe thats why.
highly recommend you to start from fresh.. migrating over apps may result in bug occurrence.
Would rooting and flashing a rom on my Curtana device preclude me from being able to upgrade to the MIUI 12 upgrade that is romoured to be released in September? Could there be an advantage to waiting for MIUI 12 before rooting and flashing? Perhaps in a future software update they fix an ongoing bug, or something? I'm familiar with rooting/flashing, but just wanted to make sure I wasn't potentially kneecapping my device before I root/flash. Thanks!

There's no inherent disadvantage to flashing/rooting before or even after the release of MIUI 12 (after, users will start waiting for Android 11 - and round goes the cycle). I would say that the decision to flash would rely on how you like MIUI 11. If you absolutely despise it then you can try a custom rom, if not then you could stay on MIUI. Nevertheless, you can always return to MIUI at any time by flashing the recovery stock rom or the fastboot one. I hope this answers your question. Have a nice day

After you unlock the bootloader and install custom Recovery you can Root/Flash any ROM you want. It won't stop you from getting MIUI 12 Update in your phone. After MIUI 12 Stable version is released you can simply flash it like flashing other ROMs and boom you will be in MIUI 12. Also there are MIUI 12 Ports for Curtana if you want to try MIUI 12 now but Ports won't have much stability so decide yourselves
- Thanks btw

Thanks, I believe I was overthinking it a bit. It makes sense that I could always reflash MIUI 12 or a ROM based off of it at a later date. Do either of you happen to know which method of rooting is the go-to as of now for Curtana?
Just do it! (root & flash)
You just use Magisk to root. SuperSU is obsolete.

1. Unlock bootloader
2. Flash custom recovery (LRTWRP seems to be most stable)
3. Flash magisk zip from recovery
