First of all, I'm really sorry if this thread would turn out to be a dumb enquiry. I am new to intrinsically customising my phone and only have been using this device (Redmi Note 9S EEA Curtana, MIUI Global V11.0.4.0. QJWEUXM 4/64 GB) for 10 days. I've successfully installed root and TWRP on my phone after having thoroughly researched relevant information. The only thing is all my efforts regarding the removal of force encryption have so far failed. I'm inclined to install a custom ROM, e. g. LineageOs or Evolution X.
1. Is it a necessity to have encryption permanently disabled so that the flashing process proves viable? Currently, I'm only aware of a method which has its effect limited to the the period the phone is in recovery. It involves formatting data and then installing Magisk and thus I need to go through the set-up again. At the end of the operation, encryption is enabled again. I have no clue why. I've tested loads of no verity opt files, none of them worked in a proper way either.
2.Will installing a custom ROM eliminate root acces (since it performs a reinstallation targeting the entire system, let alone the patched boot image)?
3. In case something goes wrong, what's the correct procedure to return to the factory ROM? Is re-locking the bootloader a prerequisite? (See this guide https://c.mi.com/uk/miuidownload/detail?guide=2, for example. Notice how each of the stable MIUI releases there are marked with ★ next to them, meaning they're locked. I didn't quite grasp the message they were trying to convey with that explanation though.)
I'm conscious that's a lot to ask in a single thread, however, unlike myself, the majority of users here are supposedly tech enthusiast and probably have encountered similar difficulties on several occasions.
I hope that I've provided enough information and the thread has been named reasonably.
(Priority: detailed answers within a month would be great.)
Cheers,
Hsjaai
Just format data: twrp->wipe->format data write yes->reboot twrp and flash rom.
If you got error(red lignes reboot twrp and format again).
or
delete all your lockscreen security before flashing but to install a new rom you must format the data before.
Thanks for your quick response, honestly I didn't expect anyone to be this early to react.
As I've already mentioned, in TWRP there's a workaround for temporarily disabling encryption using the first method, the latter one doesn't seem to function as intended - that may be the case on newer devices, according to an article I've come across.
One last request. Could you please (briefly) answer my two other questions as well? How do I reinstall MIUI if something breaks down? Is the flashing apparatus provided by Xiaomi reliable?
I'll keep you updated on my progress,

Use this tool who is reliable(if you follow the instructions). In all cases unroot before and reboot (if necessary).

Thank you so much once again for the help. What should I do if the worst-case scenario arised -essential parts of the file system got corrupted so that the phone wouldn't be capable of booting into system? Uninstall magisk via zip and then make use of the fastboot tool?

With Magisk app
I'm still unsure about something. Will the custom ROM be installed without hassle if I unroot Magisk at the beginning (meanwhile leaving the custom recovery intact, of course)? No guide seems to deem having root installed as a prerequisite. If you answer that, I'm really embarking on the flashing process.

Installing a custom rom (aosp or Miui) requires a data format (erases all data and creates a new partitions if necessary) which will remove root anyway, but sometimes root + twrp creates problems (can't mout the partitions) it is therefore to avoid this that I recommend you to unroot before.
In all cases (Aosp or custom Miui) magisk is installed last.
Which ROM do you want to install?
I'd like to install LineageOS first and see how compatible it is.

What device is Miatoll ?
Hello guys ! For some days or weeks, I see a new codename : Miatoll. I looked and search but I don't find what device is it. Can you helo me ? I wonder if I can flash my phone with a Miatoll Rom
forum.xda-developers.com
Miatoll ROMs are supposed to be compatible with Curtana if I haven't got something wrong... What's the deal with that?
I may consider flashing CherishOS instead, seems neat and the monthly updates appeal to me.

Don't flash magisk right away, check if the playstore is certified.
If not delele your google account and root with the Magisk app.
Of course, if you absolutely want to root your device for other reasons, ignore that.
***certified on redmi note 7
The installation of these should only differ (on a particular device) in the ROM that's being flashed az a zip, right?
For instance, see this guide. Could that be deemed to be applicable to any custom ROM?

Install the right TWRP
Be sure you have the right firmware.
If not flash it.
1)Twrp wipe format data write yes reboot twrp(if error reboot twrp and format again).
2)flash rom
3)reboot system
v11.0.4.0. QJWEUXM is a turkish rom(android 10)
V12.0.2.0.RJWMIXM is a global rom(android 11)Firmware base for AOSP
It is better to use Miflash and install TWrp after.(dont relock the bootloader).
Are you sure v11.0.4.0. QJWEUXM is the Turkish version? I thought it was EEA (the one tweaked for European countries). Installing the Global version seems alright, but why does the MIUI version has such a great effect on the outcome of the flashing?
Is that because both Cherish OS and the Global version are AOSP-based?

Hi guys,sorry for this stupid question but after the xiaomi's news about the bootloader re-lock that causes a brick...i'm not sure of anything...so i'im asking this
I bought a mi8 6/64 global version(bootloader locked) so i think that is coming with the global stable.
So if i want to put the global developer can i just download the package from miui website and then install it from.the system update settings on the smartphone without problems?
Like bricks,errors or something weird? ?
If yes...afyer that,can i come back to the global stable without issues?

Sorry but i can't find the answer to my question.
Ok for unlocked bootloader and china/global.
Ok for anti rollback for android 8/9.
But my question is about a Mi8 with locked bootlader and Global stable and developer

Context:
Over the few months i have seen many Mi 8 owners who tweak their phone end up with a bricked device, of all the cases, a huge majority of them is due to the lack of research and jumping into modifying their phones before fully uinderstanding the situation (I almost made the mistake too, taking for granted that all android phones have minimal restrictions)
There are two things to take note of (especially if you decide to tweak your Mi 8/SE):
1. Xiaomi implemented a policy that prevents relocking of bootloader if you install a Global Rom on a China Variant Mi Phone
What this means: You cannot relock bootloader if your Mi8/SE is a China variant and ou have Global Miui version installed (Developer/Stable)
Common mistake(s):
1. Avoid 'Clean and lock' option when using Mi Flash. Only use 'Clean all' or 'Save user data' option
2. Do not relock your Mi8/SE if you are on Global Beta or Developer or Any MIUI rom that is Global
2. Google implemented a policy that prevents rollback to older Android versions for Android Oreo and above Roms. This is for 'Security' reasons and affects MIUI.
What this means: You cannot rollback to an older Miui version (Below Android 8.0) if you already you are currently on Andorid Oreo (i.e Miui 10) and up.
Common mistake(s):
1. Do not restore an old backup with Miui that has any Android version less than 8.0 from Miui 10 ( Android 8.0)
2. Do not install Miui 9 (Below Android 8.0) after installing Miui 10 (Android 8.0 Above)
*Tip: Ask yourself if the Android version you are about to install is lower than the Android version currently installed, if it is, DO NOT flash it. (Applicable if you are currently on Android 8.0 and up)
Please keep all of this in mind before you start tweaking your phone as you will run the risk of bricking your Mi 8/SE. After which, your Mi 8 becomes a very expensive paperweight. I hope this helps to clear things up for many people! Do know that while I disagree with Xiaomi's new anti-consumer policy, i also feel that it is YOUR responsiblility in your own actions, especially when you decide to modify your device and when you do modify anything (not just phones), there are always risks involved. When in doubt, it does no harm to Google it or just ask around in the forums. Moral of the story: Proceed with caution!
For those already bricked:
1. Contact Xiaomi Customer Service and try obtain edl permission to peform Testpoint fix.
2. Bring your phone to a Mi Store and hope that they can help you with it.
*In the case where my information is wrong, please correct me so that I can update accordingly for the benefit of everyone!
Have a nice day ahead and all the best in your phone tweaking adventures! Hopefully I helped you in clearing things up

I have the bootloader that is locked and i would like to leave it locked.
Then, is it possibile to change rom from GLOBAL STABLE to GLOBAL DEVELOPER without unlocking the bootloader and making other "modding things"?
Then(only if the 2 roms have the same android,so not now) can i switch back from DEVELOPER to STABLE (with locked bootloader and only if they have the same android version)?

I see what you mean, so yours is the global version and you want to flash without unlocking, http://en.miui.com/thread-720781-1-1.html (google search). Yes u can, from my personal experience, upgrading shouldn't require data wipe, but if you downgrade be prepared to wipe data, thats the only drawback, but you can definitely do it without a bootloader unlock using XiaomiTool or Miflash as well. For upgrading to developer just use updater app and select package, if not possible then miflash. Be careful flashing, you shouldnt have any problems as of now as long as you stay away from China rom. Miui roms are all ARB:1 which means ARB not yet activated, so downgrade possible. Have a good day ahead and have fun with your new Mi 8, it is a great phone (apart from the EDL lock **** Xiaomi pulled)

you can switch from global to dev with locked bootloader. Just download the dev of Android 8.1 and install it via settings - choose package, this will format the phone. Then you will get the Android 9 8.11.8 update

Sorry guys if i bother you again.
But someone just told me that, yes it's possible to change from global stable to global developer but that i should have the same Android version (in this case right now stable is 8 and developer 9).
Otherwise i should unlock the bootloader and then i can switch...
What do you think?
Download http://bigota.d.miui.com/8.9.7/miui_MI8Global_8.9.7_fb7963a71d_8.1.zip and install it via phone updater.
That ROM was the last beta Android Oreo published.
After installing it, you'll receive an OTA update of the current beta ROM 8.11.8 Android Pie.
Done.
Hi xandreasx,
did you do it? Did it work? I tried and it did not work. If it worked could you send me the link where you downloaded it?

I have global stable 10.0.3.0 on global mi 8, locked bootloader. I downloaded 8.9.7 Global dev but the updater app says that it's not allowed to update to an unofficial rom. What version of oreo global dev do I have to flash?
Hi everyone!
I've bought a Mi Pad 4 LTE from Aliexpress and haven't already received it. (Specs says Oreo is installed).
I've read FAQs about Treble and still have questions :
1) From my understanding, I will receive a "A" partition style device, correct ?
2) When I get it, if I connect it to my WIFI Lan and update it to the latest online MIUI, will I be able to choose to upgrade to an "AB" partition style device (or not) ?
(FAQ says "For devices upgrading to Android 9, "system-as-root" is not mandatory"... )
Upgrading it to "AB" seems to be better as it supports seamless OTA updates & "A" is now considered as "old/legacy", isn't it?
3) Is it better to install a compatible ROM from "xda-developers / Project Treble / Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS"
examples: [9.0][GSI][Treble][ARM64/ARM][A/AB][Official]OctopusOS[20/11/2018]
[9.0][GSI][Treble][Enforcing][VoLTE][Official]HavocOS V2.0 [27/10/2018]
** OR **
a ROM from "xda-developers / Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 / Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Development"
examples: [ROM][9.x][UNOFFICIAL] CarbonROM | cr-7.0 [clover /MI PAD 4]
[ROM][9.x][UNOFFICIAL] Havoc OS v2.0 | [clover /MI PAD 4]
4) What are the rooting possibilities apart from Magisk? Can I trust Magisk?
My criteria:
Low draining batteries, GPS, BT output, phone, LTE/4G, sms, dark theme, 802.11ac simultaneous dual band 2.4/5GHz wifi, no bloatware or google spyware stuff, unlocked/rooted, open source ROM.
Any recommendation is welcome!
Thanks & Merry XMAS!
Ad. 1. You are correct.
Ad. 2. The device ia A style or A/B style. You will have to modify vendor, boot and add additional partition for B.
Ad. 3. Do you ask about... What is better ported rom or rom created for device? I suggest to pay attention to the no-gsi aicp mordiford. It is rom created in Japan by mi pad 4 owner for mi pad 4. Ported roms creates devs not owning pad 4.
Ad. 4.? I do not know. Do you know, your tablet has 20+ partitions. If you install custom rom you will have many apk from xiaomi on the not touched partitions. We have to trust the aps will not work and will not spy us. The magisk is 1000% more trustable.

1) What do you mean by "B"? (In the FAQ, they only talk about "A only" or AB). Is "B only" another type or it's just short for AB?
2) Do you think it's worth changing from A to B/AB?
3) Is there a procedure somewhere that I can follow "to modify vendor, boot and add additional partition for B"?
(since I assume that the MIUI online update from Oreo to Pie won't change my device from A to AB...)

Not really, I guess that this rom is "created for device"? : [ROM][9.x][UNOFFICIAL] CarbonROM | cr-7.0 [clover /MI PAD 4]
I've just read that "Porting" means shifting & modifying another android phones OS (Operating System/ User Interface) to your own phone.
For the moment, I don't see the point in choosing a ported rom.
I'm just looking for the most up to date vanilla pie ROM with maximum hardware compatibility inside a Generic System Image (no apk bloatware)
This rom isn't a "ported rom", is it? [9.0][GSI][Treble][ARM64/ARM][A/AB][Official]OctopusOS[20/11/2018]

The less apk bloatware, the better. Good to know that we can trust magisk.

Take Care
A/B has sense of 2 partitions for the same. You can fail during flashing A but you will have all time working B.
You have no option to change if you have A only device.
You have rom for device X but you want it for Y. You compile it and run on Y. Many things does not work. You fix it. If you have Y, you do it good if you do not have, your fixes will be blind, only with info abot results from forum.
The other way is if you own Y and want to prepare rom for your own use.
Ported rom brings only /system. Aicp comes with kernel. It will not replace all partitions, no chance. Especial vendor for treble is xiaomi's interes. We will have always some partitions not touched with xiaomi's content.
Sorry but this time, your explanations are not clear.
Anyone else is welcome to take part in this discussion.

From my limited understanding, if a device is A only, it cannot be "upgraded" to an A/B device, since the partition scheme is completely different. Since the Mi Pad 4 is an A device, that's what we have and that's it. That's still not the end of the world, since we can take advantage of GSI's.
The other point I think he was trying to make was that it is usually better to use ROM's that were created by someone that actualy owns the device, since they have more motivation to try to fix the smaller things, compared to someone who ports to a device they don't own. GSI's are an example of this, and although they seem to work pretty well, they are still not perfect. The best way it to test and see for your self! Happy flashing!

From my limited understanding, if a device is A only, it cannot be "upgraded" to an A/B device, since the partition scheme is completely different. Since the Mi Pad 4 is an A device, that's what we have and that's it. That's still not the end of the world, since we can take advantage of GSI's.
The other point I think he was trying to make was that it is usually better to use ROM's that were created by someone that actualy owns the device, since they have more motivation to try to fix the smaller things, compared to someone who ports to a device they don't own. GSI's are an example of this, and although they seem to work pretty well, they are still not perfect. The best way it to test and see for your self! Happy flashing!

No, you can force AB partition scheme by flashing MakeMeSAR.zip. Just do a Google search on MakeMeSAR.zip.
According to Xiaomi India, MIUI 11 "might" get out of beta on 16.10.2019.
On a personnal note, I don't believe the Mi 9 will receive the update first since there are now several models already on MIUI 11.
Aside from the A series without MIUI (Android One), I won't ever touch a Mi phone in the near future.
The ROM building is a disaster, the Mi 9 is en route to being updated last, EEA ROM still having notifications problems...
Bleh.

That's the same date what xiaomi is advertising since 2 days so it should be possible. And if you dont like the Stock Rom, switch to xiaomi.eu. All Bugs from Stock are not present there and if you dont follow the Installation Tips from most users you will never have any problems. Btw. Use lrteam twrp and not maronofrio. Even if its included in the xiaomi.eu Rom just Flash lrteam twrp after flashing the Rom and everything else you need. Its allways based on latest China beta (without bloadware and ads) All features are opend to every body even without a xiaomi Account. You allways get the latest Android Version, security Patch and miui Version that are existing. Sometimes you have to wait a week for a security Patch but thats nearly Pixel Niveau. For example Android 10 was there a few months ago (without Bugs) miui 11 is there for two weeks now (without Bugs) you get weekly Updates. And with magisk and/or xposed you can change the whole System as you want it even like Stock Android (except for the settings App). Xiaomi.eu is the allround Rom for everybody who likes to mod his System as Hard as you can(just if you want tofor sure) and stay up to Date with a Rock stable System. Just dont Listen to the dozend users Posting their bugs/problems on xiaomi.eu forum or here on xda, 99% of These problems are in Front of the Display and not behind it. If you need some instructions, Flash latest lrteam twrp (1001) Flash latest xiaomi.eu Rom (10.10.) Flash magisk (if you want to) and if you want allways working Backups (even over different Android Versions and different twrps) remove encryption (included in twrp "advanced" (rm force encrypt) ). After that just Flash lrteam twrp img again (just from within twrp) because xiaomi.eu Rom Installation will over write it. For updating the weekly you just habe to wipe "System (yes even if devs say you dont need to) dalvik and Cache" Flash Update, Flash magisk, rm force encrypt, Flash lrteam twrp img, reboot and you are happy forever. I am dirty flashing Updates for over 4 months now every week and never had a single Bug with this method. I know this Was maybe a little bit ot sorry for that.

A very clear write-up. I appreciate your time and efforts. I am using MIUI 11 (lastest version released last friday) and it is working very fuild smooth and also no bloatwares. I have customised to my taste and works better. I like xiaomi mi 9 for the simplicity in modding ourselves.
Are they releasing Global and EEA ROM in the same time or EEA ROM will came a little bit later after Global ROM?
Is anybody know this?!

Sorry, but that's just not correct.
You are right in the fact that some, or most, of the bugs in the stock ROM are not on Xiaomi.eu ROM, but it's a trade-off, you trade some bugs for other bugs and for some other stupid ideas from the developers.
Xiaomi.eu developers hard mod the ROM themselves, a lot of stupid choices going on there. For instance, the developers thought it is a good idea to remove the Message notification option from the settings, because they think SMS messages are just like any other notification, and their advice, if you want to have a different sound for SMS notification, is to go to App Info and modify from there. Of course, that DOES NOT WORK, the sound gets reset to default notification sound every single time, but they don't fix that or restore the freaking option in settings. And the list can go on and on.
Also, the stock apps are a mess, because they are not really the Global ones, but not Chinese versions either, they are also modded by the developers of Xiaomi.eu, so they work like crap or not at all in some cases. Forget about updating them, there is no way to do that unless you install the APK directly and then, in most cases, they works even worse.
Basically, xiaomi.eu is a pain to live with, it might be nice for those who just use the phone to look fancy and to take a few pictures, but if you actually USE the phone, it's crap.
That being said, the Stock ROM is no joy either, it gets updated once every 3-6 months and basically, like 10% of the features and fixes from the defunct Global Beta make it to the Global Stable. So yeah...for short, Xiaomi can make great phones, but they make crap ROM and there are no decent options of a good ROM, in my opinion.

Let's all buy a less powerful phone to get updates quicker.
No sense, I'm on Xiaomi.eu ROM, and guess what, choose miui 10 with Android 9.
Less bugs, way more stable.

What are you talking about? Mi8 alredy has android 9. So both Mi 8 and Mi 9 will get android 10.

I guess the wait for Mi9 is the android 10 update...
But i thought Mi9 SE is getting also getting android 10. Maybe it will get android 10 later?

Hi all,
I have unlocked my device and is currently running LineageOS 16 from OpenKirin. There are a few things which does not work, like the camera app that comes with the OS as well as the notch, where icons goes beyond the notch. Someone suggested I try the OpenKirin Rom and that is how I got that specific ROM on my device.
I was wondering are there maybe other ROMS for this device? Like the one's mentioned in the article below?
https://www.getdroidtips.com/best-custom-rom-huawei-p20-lite/
It took me a long while to get everything running on this device, Magisk and EdXposed. So I just don't want to go and wipe my OS just to try 4 ROMS that does not work. Sure you have app backup for that but it would mean doing everything over almost on the device.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Also I am rather new to custom ROMS so please bear with me!

There is nothing like perfect Custom ROM. It is highly dependent upon the requirement of the user and his likes/dislikes. Every ROM has its importance and downsides. You can try flashing multiple ROMs to find the ROM which is suitable and best for you. There is no Custom ROM that is 100% bug free (it depends, among other things, on model, FW built number etc. etc.).
If you don’t prefer EMUI,* choose Havoc OS , AOSP Extended or LineageOS.
If you "hate" Google and Google's bloatware (like me ) only, you can simply rebrand your phone to chinese Nova 3e (among other things, better battery life, lower data consumption etc.)
Or, choose Custom ROM based on Stock with KangVip settings ( to get away from GAPPS) , stable enough to be used as your daily driver.
Availability of custom ROMs for Kirin devices is scarce.

Hi,
No i have not tried one of the recommended in that list i provided. It took me a very long time to get the phone unlocked! Then more bricks, soft and hard through the process :crying:
Magisk was not as hard to install but EdXposed was, and I also got my device stuck on a boot loop trying to get EdXposed to run. So yeah I took me a while to get it working.

AB or A-only depend on EMUI version : 9.1 = AB, 8.0 = A-only.

Android 13 LineageOS 12 ROM
11-02-2023 (ported)
There's no guarantee nothing, don't use it if you don't know what you're doing!
SAVE your DATA before!
Make sure you have a custom recovery installed (TWRP is the preferred recovery. [I'm not using Fox recovery, I'm not going to give you advice.])
TWRP_SZANCSO.img is my work, included 4.9 kernel, included Midnight Commander (mc), fixed many factory bugs, working USB storage mode, and DT2W.
Boot into recovery
Wipe system, vendor, data, cache partitions to clean install.
(If your /data partition secured, maybe need format /data if you want to use this ROM.)
Flash Rom in TWRP (sideload or copy any storage)
Flash OpenGapps (Optional) [I'm not using GAPPS, I'm not going to give you advice.] (NOT TESTED!)
Flash Magisk Root (Optional) [I'm not using Magisk, I'm not going to give you advice.] (NOT TESTED!)
Reboot (If TWRP warn that there is no system, it doesn't matter, go reboot.)
First boot may take up to ~1-2 minutes.
DOWNLOAD
Known issues: -
Not tested: VOLTE, GAPPS, Magisk
Cool things:
-Include Midnight Commander (in adb)
-FM radio
-smart charging
-adb root
-24-25 days standby time (one charge)
-Enforced selinux
-Not encrypted
(I switched to this ROM from Ancient, it's terrible that some projects make many things mandatory (default encrypt, adb without root, etc.). It's sad that Open Source (AOSP) has come this far... They limit you like little kings... [email protected]!)
TWRP kernel source: LINK
OS source (XDA): LINK
ROM OS Version: 13
ROM Kernel: Linux 4.9 Source
ROM info: 13, system_root partition, Android quota removed (easier to go back to earlier 7.x-11.x ROMs), NOT encrypted
Created: 11-02-2023
Last Updated: -
I am not aware that it contains malicious code in the ROM, I have never put it in. This is a ported ROM, all its elements come from the Internet.

Hi szanalmas,
if you can please help me.
I have flashed lineage 20 to my Redmi Note 5A from the official site and I have these problems:
1. When I select the front camera I can only see a black screen. It seems that the camera works because I take photos which are totaly blacks.
2. The FM Radio does not work.
Both front camera and FM Radio worked properly and perfect with stock rom.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Sorry, I've never tried the "OFFICIAL" Lineage version, so I can't help you with that. It's pretty sad that it's so buggy.
I do not (and will not) use "retrofit antics" on my phone. The "retrofit" makes no sense in the case of ugglite.
My ported version is perfect for me.
(I don't even understand why ada12 is promoting it in this thread... It's pretty bad.)
