Hello, i just bought Xioami mi pad 4 for 150eur in europe, i have been told that its from England.. I tried to verify authetification on xioami site, but it says
"Thank you for choosing Xiaomi!
However, the device you purchased is not an official global version and user experience may be affected. Next time, please purchase the official global version of the device through officially authorized channels."
Can anyone explain what this means? I heavily use tablet for 2 days, and everything is great. Just curious about message..
Also can someonw tell me if ita instaled last version of system?
Thanks in advance.
Mi Pad 4/Plus hasn't Global version. Only China version with xiaomi.eu like ROM.
Many China sellers use fake global MIUI as base system for sold devices. They unlock bootloader and install own rom. You can find some old posts about it and hints to replace this fake rom with any other custom rom or original MIUI. Maybe you have this rom in your tablet.
Xiaomi never offered this mi pad 4 official outside of China.

Hello,
I got this amazing phone about a month ago. Since then I am stuck with MIUI 7.1.3.0 (EU version) and no updates. I really thought that Xiaomi are good at ROM support, but I can only see they update the Chinese version. Will they ever release updated global version of 7.2?
I even doubt that they will release Android 6.0 on Redmi 3. What do you think?
you will get a miui with 6.0 , don't worry
just don't wait this to happen soon
first they will update the flagships (mi4/mi5/mi note) then the redmi's phones
if you want regular (every week) updates then you must have a dev rom , this rom updates every week , the stable , obviously, needs more time
Your MIUI 7.1.3.0 (EU version) is not official ROM, your seller just flashed some custom build for you. Xiaomi has not released Global ROM for Redmi 3 at all. And when Xiaomi will release Global ROM you will need to flash it manually, it wont get OTA update since your current ROM is not official.

I bought it from HonorBuy. But this is not the cheapest place you can find it. I chose it because they ship from EU and there is no bothering with customs.
Sorry for answering after a month
Hi a while ago I've imported a redmi note 3 pro from China to Canada. Everything else is working fine but I've had this for a month already and the updater app tells me that I have no new OTA updates which is rather weird, since we're supposed to get miui updates very often. Do u guys know why it's happening? Is it die to a locked bootloader or the wifi here in Canada doesn't work well with the Chinese servers? By the way I also tried to flash a ROM from the miui website for this device but it didn't work either so please help
What's your firmware version? You might have a reseller firmware, in that case you would have to flash the fastboot rom
I live in Brazil and bought a Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G due to it's good price on Aliexpress, on the Mi Official Store. I will receive a open box, because they will reflash the ROM from Poco X3 GT Global Version to it.
I'm afraid about my security in buying a phone that it is previously handled by them. What can I do about it? Is that a legit concern? What is the difference between a reflashed rom and a global version?

This phone only exists in Chinese version and it has flashed the global version of the poco so that you have for example a multi-language version because the original version is only in Chinese or English and without play store.
With the unlocked bootloader you can install custom roms.
There are two security, the bootloader and the Xiaomi account, you only have one left.

Do you think I will have access to Google Services with the Poco Global ROM?

yeap but some services(google pay) and apps will be unavailable due to the unlocked bootloader resulting in an uncertified play store.
Good morning
I bought a Mi Pad 5 Pro Wifi version (without 5g) by ebay and it arrived with the bootloader unlocked and a global rom with my language (Spanish). I know it is not an official rom from Xiaomi. The problem is that it does not support OTA updates.
I would like to find some help about where I can find roms like the global one I have and instructions to flash it, or instructions to flash the CN version if needed, or Lineage OS .
Thank you very much for your help.
@radriarevlo Try this ROM. My device is Mi Pad 5 Pro 5G. I've flashed GSI ROMs but got many problems with hardware. So it's best for now to stick with Stock ROM which is CN version. With CN stock ROMs, I can still read and write in my local language by using Gboard. But the UI can be only Enlish or Chinese. No worry about Google Play Store. You can install it easily with GetApps that comes with the stock ROMs.
Hi I'm sorry for interrupting but I really need help in here:
So I have a Redmi 10 2022 Global and I tried looking for the Chinese ROM and I find it but for the Redmi 10 which makes wonder is it the same? If so and if I proceeded with the flashing process will I still get updates after switching?
This the rom I found https://mifirm.net/model/selene.ttt#
Hello,
I would understand the opposite, but what is the real need for switching to Chinese version ?
I would stick to the original version, but here is a trusted website

My problem isn't with the Rom it's about the ability to receive updates after switching to the Chinese variant so I'm just wondering is it possible to get updates after switching to the Chinese variant ?
If you did switch from the Chinese to the global version, were you able to download updates via updater without any issues?
