thanks in advance
You can flash latest miui EU weekly to go back to miui (it doesnt lock the BL), you can flash almost anything (Lineage OS, RR,...) and flash eu weekly to go back to miui. BL will get locked upgrading/downgrading android LP to MM or MM to LP will lock BL and some roms also lock BL (like multirom stable 8.1.0.0, some custom roms,firmwares)
I always ended with brick if flashed official miui tbrough twrp and have tried cofface twrp,zcx,..

OK ... what you say is i can use twrp to flash CM 13 OR CM 14 Or AOSP ROMS or MIUI EU ROMS all from twrp any time and every thing will be OK as long as i will not flash OFFICIAL MIUI
and here i will not need any PC even when i am on CM 14 OR CM 13 then flashing any MIUI EU from TWRP ZCX
AND what about if i restored my STOCK OFFICIAL TWRP BACKUP ??? will it be OK ??
Thanks in advance
Yeah you can flash CM13,CM14,Lineage OS...
But some custom roms also locks BL(it would say so usually)
Also multirom 8.1.0.0 locked BL and official ROMs...
I do that: Use ZCX twrp, clean flash always (have all partitions backed on sd and all files for flashing on sd)
Wipe all except sd, flash CM13/14 or any other rom that doesnt relocks BL. Then if I want to go back to MiUi, just wipe all again and flash EU ROM (it does not lock).
So that way you can switch ROMs without PC...
If it flashes and turn off after flashing it means BL got locked, you must go in fastboot and unlock it with MiUnlock.
I think restoring official will also relock BL...
Just be sure to have backup of all 44partitions (EFS,Modem,radio..) in case you lose radios or imei...

How to do that i did full backup from zcx from my first stock miui once i flashed it ... is this what you mean or zcx can't make this special backup?
and can i make this backup from any rom that is working with me or i should return to stock again ?
AND If it flashes and turn off after flashing it means BL got locked, you must go in fastboot and unlock it with MiUnlock.
can i do this once i put the phone in fastboot and use miunlock and open twrp then flash another rom - or i have to first go back to stock miui then RE unlock bbotloader then flash new recovery ...... bla bla bla
Yeah I use zcx to backup all partitions also Alka can do this too. So if you did full backup with Zcx you are good to go
If it blinks and turns off, BL got locked. You must only go in fastboot, connect with PC, log in to MiUnlock, click unlock and reboot. No need to flash stock miui with MiFlash...
When i try to restore the backup, on rebooting, it shows wrong password. Same problem with both CM and MIUI roms.
Try without restoring data
Error "Couldn't check device security info miui.eu ..... how can i get over that
and i can't enter twrp again
You must be connected to internet while loging in on initial boot up...sometimes server is offline, try multiple times, reboot... Or try flashing miui eu weekly 6.11.3 first
How are you booting to twrp?
You must turn off device
,hold power and volume up, when mi logo appears, release power and keep holding volume up until you see twrp.

i think my bootloader is locked and i did restor flash from the beginning edl mode and i am booting now from stock again ... nice to do that and thank you for your concern
i will unlock again and flash twrp again
the question is why is that happened i was in rr 6 then i wipped and flash miui.eu ( i flashed the same version before and it worked fine )
any way thanks a lot you are my teacher here >>>>
edit its OK now i am on stock MIUI 8 .
So what now
What should I do to flash cm 13 and cm 14 Roms and flash miui.eu Roms without mistakes I will go and try again
my problem was i forgot to reset factory settings after each change from cm to miui
but i think there is another solution instead of wipping all internal data every time i change cm to miui and miui to cm romsss
Hi ,
I have to revert back to latest MIUI ROM from CM13 ROM [ locked Bootloader]. I have read other threads too but theres never a clear answer.
First of all I dont have any backup of any MIUI roms. I want to do a clean install of latest MIUI build.
What do I have? : Alka TWRP, CM 13 with locked bootloader I think.
Can someone please tell me what do things I need to revert back with steps?
Do I need to unlock the bootloader first then flash the lastest build of MIUI with MiFlash tool? or the bootloader needs to unlocked later after the flash?
Or can I install MIUI recovery rom? with ALKA TWRP?
Flesh miui rom via edl method using mi flash tool.
download fastboot rom and flash via mi flash.
it will lock ur bootloader so unlock it via mi unlock again if u officially unlocked.
off course this method requires a PC.

In the developer mode settings, enable advance options to restart. This will give you the option (on long pressing the power button) to reboot into recovery. If by this method you can get into recovery it would be alot easy to flash the MIUI ROM (which you can get for your device from the official miui rom download site).
If you can't get into recovery, you will need a PC/laptop.

Most probably yes.
But you could try( before unlocking) booting into recovery as i have mentioned above.
Greetings,
I am planning to get a pocophone f1 and install lineageos 16 stable. Questions are:
1. Will it be possible to revert to the stock rom (to prove warranty or if i were to return it)?
2. How do you revert?
3. Is there a flashing tool for doing it?
4. Anyone done it?
Kind regards
1. Will it be possible to revert to the stock rom (to prove warranty or if i were to return it)? Yes
2. How do you revert? Use Mi Flash Tool and fastboot ROM
3. Is there a flashing tool for doing it? http://en.miui.com/a-234.html
4. Anyone done it? Many times, if you don't want to lock bootloader while doing it, don't choose clean all and lock
Cheers!!!
Thanks for answer.
I've found that to flash lineageos you need to flash a pie vendor. wondering in case of a revert, whether you need to flash stock vendor. I guess it gets flashed if I use flashtool and flash fastboot rom, correct?
secondly, if i relock bootloader, to reunlock, do i need to repeat same process as first time unlocking? or is it just a "fastboot oem unlock" command?
thirdly, should I be worried about xiaomi "anti rollback" feature? will it just prevent downgrade?

Yes, the tool would take care of it.

Same process as before, fastboot command doesn't work on Poco.
thirdly, should I be worried about xiaomi "anti rollback" feature? will it just prevent downgrade?
No, there is no "anti rollback" for Poco

Ans1 , yes you can revert back anytime, manytimes (always take backup because Miui encrypts data partition and custom rom has to wipe it so chances are you will loose you data .... but last week i flashed MIUI 10.3.4 Global Stable from lineage and then flashed havoc. i didn't loose any data (used latest twrp and magisk19 beta)
Ans2. there are 3 ways, download recovery rom and simply flash it via twrp ( which is the most common), OR download fastboot rom and flash it via miflashtool (by putting fone in fastboot mode) BUT this way you will DELETE ALL THE DATA and there is one button on MIFLASH called "flash and LOCK" if you by accident didn't uncheck it, chances are your boot will be LOCKED, so becareful. ---- the third method is EDL but you will never use that, it involves putting fone in edl mode (back panel is remove and two short points are touched via wire on motherboard and usb cable is plugged in and then fastboot rom is FLASHED by miflash tool, this usually done on BRICKED Xiaomi fones and MIFLASH asks for AUTHORISED ACCOUNT , which usually only few members have ,,, so this third method you will not use! ...
Ans3.. the popular tool to flash fastboot rom in fastboot mode and edl mode is MI FLASH (latest came out during May2018) but
(a) if your redmi/mi fone is mediatek base then you can try SP FLASHTOOL also! (never done)
(b) if your redmi/mi fone is qualcom snapdragon like redmi3s/ redmi max / redmi6 series / redmi5 series (snapdragon 430/625/660 and now Poco f1 on snapdragon 8x) then you can use QUALCOM's OWN Flashtool https://www.qpstflash.com/ ... i flashed lenevo via qualcom flasher once and it was successful! BUTTTT its HIGHLY NOT RECOMENDED!!!!! ,,, for poco f1. just stating here for your information
Ans4. recently bought Poco so NO, but i have flashed my REDMI 3s via miflash tool (EDL MODE) and then Redmi Note 5pro, i have flashed in fastboot mode so it works but you have to patience, REDMI/Mi is UNSTABLE devices (unlike Sony or Samsung) , and can easily be bricked and many time there are no solutions on miui forums for strange errors coming / poping up in miflash tool... like "cannot send zero packet data" etc etc
summing up..
anything can go wrong even if you are flashing ! so whenever you are flashing any custom rom or miui via twrp/miflashtool ALWAYS "cross your fingers"
I'm currently using Pixel experience
I want to go to Stock MiUi Room
Please Tell me how to!!
My phone is a Pocophone not Poco F1(is there any difference?) Global Edition
I'm curious about how you managed to flash a custom ROM but now you don't know how to flash the stock one ???
Follow this guide dude
just download the RECOVERY ROM from
https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/how-to/xiaomi-poco-f1-unlock-bootloader-custom-t3839405
and flash it via TWRP !
and you are DONE
wana root?
- after flashing ROM, reboot, signin , settle and then come back in twrp and flash magisk19 and reboot
why?
in my xperience the setup wizard takes forever to signin to google if you flash magisk,, i have no explaination why! but it happens with me many times !
The method described above will lock my boot loader again?

I don't know but flashing via mi flash tool can clean all + lock boot loader , it's an easy process .
For this process all you need is mi flash tool + latest miui build+ universal adb drivers .
it would be best to flash xiaomi.eu rom via twrp. No hassle with bootloader, recovery etc
If you want to go back to stock ROM you have two options. First one is via installing stock ROM from recovery and the second one is via fastboot mode. If you search MIUI firmware on chrome and then you have to open the first site. Then search POCO F1 and you will get the ROMs for recovery and fastboot mode. Then follow the instruction on "Munchy" youtube channel.
To install Stock Rom download the recovery Rom and the latest Magisk.zip
Boot to TWRP click install and select the recovery rom then hit add zip and select magisk.zip and swipe to install.
You are done twrp will remain there along with root.
What's the way to achieve this? I'm scared to just go and install MIUI because of anti rollback protection, so I'd like to ask:
1. What's the reliable source to download MIUI from? Global user here.
2. What are the exact steps to safely install MIUI?
Download mi-flashtool, download MIUI official fastboot rom and flash via mi-flashtool
DON'T FORGET to backup everything before, If you choose "clean all" option before flashing
And, There is no Anti-roll back in Redmi 5 plus aka Vince
