Hi, I'm trying to update my MIUI version to MIUI 13 however nothing is working, I am aware I've got a locked bootloader which is why I'm only trying to update via the Updated in Settings an odd thing is that my MIUI version is different from any version I've seen downloadable.
My version is RJBEUSF
EEA version is RJBEUXM
What to do?
Thanks

if you can't update via settings
reset device and try again if fail
then bootloader should be unlocked to try the 2nd official way
unlock bootloader with "mi unlock" on any pc or laptop
then download your desired ROM and flash it with "mi flash"
you can also relock bootloader again while flashing with mi flash

If I want to relock bootloader do I need my specific device's MIUI ROM? I'm trying to download it via the Settings but I think it's a "carrier" based MIUI rom and it's really limiting.
Only reason that I would want this is for resell value. Easier to sell a stock device than an open bootloader one.
Thanks btw for answering.

you can only flash with pc or laptop following way
requirements
1.pc/laptop with adb drivers
2.unlocked bootloader device
yes you need fastboot rom flashing with "mi flash" to relock the bootloader
Official Roms for Mi10 (UMI) you can download from here and select fastboot while downloading not recovery rom
extract downloaded rom in c drive
download latest mi flash and extract this in c drive also
run mi flash select rom, attach your device in fastboot mode by pressing vol down + power down
and hit flash button, attaching screen shot also
hope this will help
i have same device, and this mi flash version worked good for me (MiFlash 2021.2.26.0)
i was getting problems with latest version

I have the Redmi note 3 pro 2gb snapdragon version I have unlocked my bootloader officially. I cannot seem to be able to root/flash recovery onto my phone.
I tried the Miui India toolkit - I get an error message: error unhandled exception has occurred in your application blah blah blah Could not find file c:\1.txt
I tried following this guide, and it worked once but it also broke Wifi - wifi refused to turn on
http://xiaomitips.com/guide/root-redmi-note-3-snapdragon/
I'm on Global Stable 7.1.8.0. I've tried the China rom and Global 7.2.3.0 but both roms are much worse on my phone - I no longer get notifications from my messaging apps, Blackplayer keeps stopping and restarting from the very first song it started playing, and other random bugs
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you

You unlocked your bootloader on stable ROM? Are you sure? According to this post it doesn't work on stable and it didn't work for me (same model).
Check it in fastboot (power off device and boot by holding Power + Vol Down):
1. Connect your RN3 SD to PC
2. Open cmd.exe and change to your ADB/fastboot folder with "cd <X:\myADBandFASTBOOTfolder\>" (replace with whereever fastboot.exe is located)
3. Check the connection with "fastboot devices". It should show something, meaning that your PC recognizes your device being connected through fastboot.
4. Enter "fastboot oem device-info". The line where it says "Device unlocked:" should be "true". If not, your bootloader is still locked.
Anyway, I suggest going to an official Developer Version (if you are on Global Stable, install Global Dev; China Stable -> China Dev). IMPORTANT: Search through forums, if an OTA update is safe to do, when your bootloader is unlocked. It might (!) lock it again, meaning you have to wait again, since Xiaomi only allows one unlock a month per device.
When you are on Dev ROM with bootloader unlocked, follow this guide to flash TWRP and patch the boot.img (important, so it doesn't replace TWRP with stock recovery again after the next boot). Go into recovery (Power + Vol Up) immediately after flashing TWRP, without rebooting to system. If TWRP is in Chinese, check out my comment here on how to fix it.
After successful installation of TWRP make sure that it's permanent (reboot the device at least twice and enter TWRP again). If that is the case you can search for the latest SuperSU.zip and flash it through TWRP which should give you root.
Hope this helps.

Hello
Sorry to rephrase: I flashed to China Dev rom via MiFlash and unlocked the bootloader offically, however this rom had odd errors and bugs so I went back to the older Global Stable. My understanding is that the bootloader is now unlocked regardless of what ROM i am running?
In the guide you linked, the OP mentione "no patched boot.img required" yet you recommend I patch the boot.img? Can you advise how I should do this?

I think going from China Dev to Global Stable is giving you troubles. Since you already flashed another Official ROM after unlocking the bootloader I don't think it would make matters worse if you did it again now. Try flashing the official Global Dev Qualcom http://en.miui.com/download-301.html and check again if your bootloader is unlocked through the method I posted. After that - if it's still unlocked - you should be able to follow through with the guide.
Right, the boot.img is patched automatically through TWRP when you enter and exit it. Just flash the recovery and confirm overwriting files, so it doesn't go back to stock, when you exit TWRP. You should get a notification when you try to rebbot to system through TWRP.
Just as an update - I was able to flash Cofface's recovery on Global Stable 7.1.8.0 (since my phone refused to update me to any other rom) using the provided guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/development/recovery-kenzotwrp-cafface-3-0-0-t3369341
Hi all,
I want to update to global rom, but i can't enter EDL mode as shown in this guide : http://en.miui.com/thread-235865-1-1.html
Can someone tell me if i need to flash it in EDL mode or can i flash it through fastboot using miflash(in this case do i need to clear all data?)?
Update app not working, can't verify update message.
I am on the redmi note 3 snapdragon, version 7.2.5 china
Who can explain me what to do?
Solved by reinstalling adb & fastboot package

No you do not have to. Flash it according to the tutorial in the link above. Make sure you have all programs and fastboot drivers installed on your pc and it should go very quickly. You will have to wipe user data and such, so remember that.
The fastboot rom is also there in the link.
I got approval from xiaomi to unlock Bootloader. When try to unlock it stuck at 50%. Then i heard, I've to flash developer rom before unlock. So i tried to flash developer rom via update but it shows cant verify package....

If you are on Global Stable ROM then you can't flash developer ROM via the updater app as it would throw up the error "can't verify package". If you were upgrading for example from an old version of Global Stable ROM to the newer then then update app would work.
To flash the developer ROM you have to flash it via fastboot. Download the fastboot version of the developer ROM and flash it via MI flash tool.

1.Can I Unlock Bootloader on Stable ROM ?
2.Unlocking bootloader means I will loose all data right?
3.can I directly flash ZCX TWRP after unlocking bootloader ?
I couldnt unlock it on stable, but no harm if you try
Unlocking doesnt mean you will lose data, you lose nothing
You can flash after unlockibg bootloader.
And you can unlock it as many times you need (it gets locked if you flash MIUI again or if you switch MIUI android version..

Then I selected Drivers in that file to get ADB interface bootloader working, then I used MiUnlock and it went success
i didnt have my computer with 64bit win10 at hand where I have everything working tip top, so I tried that and it worked...maybe it can help someone too

Hi, I think the title says it all. What is the best and the easiest way to downgrade from MIUI 8 to 7 without losing any data on my phone/SD card? Where can I see the download link to the exact specific ROM version for my phone (Redmi Note 3)? I am currently running on MIUI Global 8.0 Stable | 8.0.6.0 (LHOMIDG). Thanks!
