How to check if you are using the latest vendor??

Just wipe everything than flash the latest vendor and then go on with the latest Pixel Experience rom. That's it.......

You don't have to wipe anything to flash the vendor or the update to the ROM. Don't go about giving wrong advice.

To flash the latest version of CM, be sureto have updated your phone officially to Stock Marshmallow. If not latest CM will not flash. You an error.
I'm guessing your phone is Indian version? Anyways go to the huawei website of your country. Download the marshmallow software file there and upgrade it through force update like i recommended here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/help/gr5-help-t3443573
I think you should go into your current custom recovery first and wipe data/factory reset. So u don't get bootloop as a result of CM files being on board currently.
The firmware in the link above is not for your country/device but for Egypt KII-L21CUST185.
So get the correct file for your device for your country's huawei website as mentioned above.
After flashing successfully, you have to flash custom recovery, again. Remember the whole 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img' process then flash SuperSU in custom recovery to root? Yeah do that.
Now you can flash latest CM build again. Cheers!
Note: If your country doesn't have marshmallow (6.0.1) available, don't bother with the process as latest CM build will not flash.

Hey guys, it's been awhile again, and I've yet to flash as accordingly taught. So is there already any easier method than flashing stock MM based EMUI and flashing again to custom?

Need 9.2.15+ dev firmware without flashing whole room.

So after checking the Xiaomi firmware site (didn't work, flashing the weekly firmware just appeared as stable) I haven't been able to get the developer firmware.
Does anybody know where I can get a hold of it without the MIUI ROM.
(It's needed for the latest Pixel Experience update and it isn't included with the update)
Title is meant to say MIUI ROM not room, autocorrect sorry.

Always go here for latest vendor firmwares
https://mirror.akhilnarang.me/MIUI/beryllium/
and never use beryllium-V10.1.3.0-9.0-vendor-firmware.zip - this is an older version, even though the version number is higher than 9.

First flash new vendor mirror.akhilnarang.me/MIUI/beryllium/ latest atm is 9.4.25 i think. You should ofcourse clean wipe before doing the vendor. After flashing the vendor the rom should no longer give error 7
Thanks bro i will try
After flashing this can i flash miui 10 rom also??

Personally i don't play pubg but some of the people in telegram group do so support is in the chat group if needed some seem to change kernel to gain some performance but i think it performs good enough unless you have touch issues that some fts users have
I would not recommend flashing miui through twrp as many have reported that it bricks the device or maybe they are just doing something wrong
Twrp is best for custom roms
Use mi flasher for flashing miui

You don't have to flash any vendor zip if you're going to flash MIUI 10. If you wish to flash MIUI 10 for example from en.miui.com the global MIUI 10 then you can just flash the MIUI zip following magisk if you wish to have root then just reboot. You will have to flash the vendor zip if you wish to flash custom rom as custom rom don't have vendor firmware in it. Flash vendor first then the custom rom zip following with gapps and mod optional.
And yeah, if you flash custom rom and then flash MIUI back you might get region locked where you cant change the region, but I've solved that by flashing cust.img from global image zip using fastboot, this is because the cust partition isn't installed properly. It's the best to flash using Mi Flash, but it will encrypt you device. Do it on your own risk, im just simply sharing from my experience and im not responsible if your device change to iOS.

Yes you can flash any Miui Rom via TWRP Download The Flashble Zip Not the Fastboot One.
But When You will flash Stock MiUi 10 Rom Via TWRP You will Loose All Of Your Data.
You Need to Flash DFE After Flashing Stock One.
If You want To Flash Custom Rom
Flash Vendor
Flash Rom and Gapps
If You Want To Root Flash Magisk.
And Then Any Custom Kernel.
Reboot to System.

Updating the phone after rooting

I'm on official miui 10 version 10.3.7 and I have twrp installed and rooted with magisk. I wanna keep the root but also upgrade to 10.3.8.
How should I do this?
You can install the globe rom from this side.
https://mi-globe.com/miui-firmware-rom-builder-features/65/
Click on miui 9.6.27 and then select the 10.3.8.0 stable version.
Configure what ever you want and flash it with twrp.
