1) Yep. You need proper drivers along with Windows 64 bit though.
2) Theoretically you should be able to but it doesn't seem to be working for 99 percent of the people. However you can flash it through mi flash.
Hit thanks if I helped you ?

le max2 X820 How to change modem?

How to change/ flash modem on eg 28s
I currently have 19s and I do not catch LTE at all.
And whether the change of ROM is at once a change of the modem or two separate issues, i.e. changing the ROM itself will also change my modem, do I have to change the ROM separately and the modem separately
I am asking for a step-by-step instruction
Heyyo, only EUI ROM comes with the full firmware with the ROM.
If you use a custom ROM not EUI ROM based? It will not overwrite device firmware.
I always recommend full firmware packages instead of just modem so all the device firmware have matching version numbers.
to change firmware? Just download the desired zip and flash via TWRP and reboot. Same procedure to switch firmware if you wish to try a different version.
To flash different full firmware I have links on my LineageOS 15.1 for X2 thread for the main different versions.
30s and 466d are the latest two. Try each and see which one offers you the best overall experience

mi a3 Rom question- about EU rom and global

Mine is running on 10.3.13.0 PFQEUXM or Europe rom. Im trying to install custom recovery and root it later. I'm in the process of downloading the files like the fastboot rom just incase i have to go back to stock or if something goes wrong. I also prefers to use global rom since im not in the Europe region. My question is if its okay to flash Global version or will it brick the device?

I heard somebody accidentally flashed EU ROM on global version of the device when restoring the device using MiFlash.
While it did not brick the phone, the wifi Mac address get messed up. So I don't recommend you to try this.
It is better to flash the ROM that correspond to your device varient, just in case something goes bad.
Switching between EU/GLOBAL works fine, it doesn't brick anything. When I tried it I had to perform factory reset, otherwise the phone did not boot up. So far no one came with confirmed list of differences, it is being speculated that EU ROM has better privacy protection due to more strict EU laws and that headphones volume is limited to conform the EU laws. But again, there hasn't been provided a single proof for these claims and it seems that they are functionally the same, sharing the same features (and bugs). In the past months, Global version received OTA update few days in advance of EU, but the latest update arrived at the same time. Personally I don't have any problem with the EU ROM.
Thanks guys, i was able to install global rom and twrp + root without any problem. One thing i noticed is that EU is on v10.3.13 and global is 10.3.12,but both of them has the December security patch so no worries.

Global Rom Installed On China Version

Hi
Couple of years ago I bought redmi 5 plus which is china version but it got global miui stable version installed. (probebly by retailer)
now there is miui 10 and 11 available for my phone but I can not update using system update in setting. it says no update available.
so what should I do?
my own idea is to go back to china stable rom, but I don't know what method is harmless and easier to do so?
you have to unlock your boot-loader only then you will be able to flash latest global or chinese official MIUI rom. it is safe process, use xiaomiflasher softawre in PC.. watch more instructions in google or youtube.

Question Needing the latest Chinese rom. Does anyone have it available?

I'm trying to back to Chinese rom from Global rom due to needing a locked bootloader and non-root.
Myogui has CN rom on the Google drive in flash thread
Where is the flash thread?
