[ Bootloader Locked & Default Recoveey ] Moving between Global Stable and Global Dev
Hi
I've read the guides about anti roolback and before testing I would like to clarify this.
I'm using Global Stable 9.5.19.0 and would like to test MIUI 10 (Global Dev 8.8.2 atm).
I have the default recovery and the bootloader is locked (untouched Note 5 phone).
For what I've read, I think both these roms are anti-4.
Am I able switch (upgrade & downgrade) between Global and Dev anti-4 ROMs using the update app, choosing the rom file and flash, even so I have a locked bootloader and the default recovery?
Thanks

my Mi5s arrived yesterday, system says i'm running MIUI 8.0 Global 8.0 Stable 8.0.3.0 (MAGMIDI) rom,
Is this the best rom for OTA?
Is this the latest official rom avaiable?
are there any better rom options based on MIUI which receives ota updates?
thank you in advance
Matteo
Official global rom's dont updating....now the latest version is China stable 8.2.5.0....but global stable is stayed in 8.0.3.0.....xiaomis not updating GLOBAL OFFICIAL ROM FOR MI5S....but now coming Global developer rom 7.5.18....it is good for ota....but if you dont want dev Rom...you can Root your mi5s and flash Xiaomi.eu rom....its unofficial Global Miui....and very good and stable for use....Xiaomi.eu is based on China Stable latest version but without Chinese content and with more Supported languages....
Except that Xiaomi.eu stopped their OTA support.

except as you're on 8.0.3 you're s**t out of luck - you can't update, you can't root because you can't unlock - unless you use a deep flash cable and MiFlash a different Miui ROM with OEM unlock status available.
then you can unlock, and flash any ROM

On the first attempt error occurred in 50%, so I uninstalled the driver and installed again, That's it!
Edit: I used the software from Xiaomi.
I'm using official global 8.2.1.0, is it possible to install the global dev 7.5.18 without error ?
I mean, I tried to do it using TWRP but, again, it got stuck during installation. I know it's possible with a fastboot version, but we don't have it.
As Like Going to Android O after Instaliing Android P is a downgrade too, So I was just wondering if I can checkout Mokee Android P Rom, Can I get back to MIUI 8.7.12 (Oreo), Or even Anti Rollback Policy will Restrict me from doing that. I finally manage to download and flash TWRP on my RN5 Pro so far. I love MIUI but Even love to Check Another Roms. I'm at MIUI 8.7.12 currently.
I'll be glad if some MODERATORS will reply me about it, As I want to check Android P, biut without Bricking my Phone lol.
******HELP ME with that.

miui 10 8.7.5 is ARB3
this only applies to MIUI roms if AOSP or LAOS it doesnt apply.
but when going back to miui go back to 8.7.5 or global stable 5.9.17.0

Thanks man, it's really helped alot,
I appreciate that ?
I have a Redmi Note 5 Global with MIUI 9.5.19, and I want to install 8.7.26 (MIUI10) because I can't unlock my bootloader yet (14 days to go).
My question is: can I do that safely without bricking my device? And can I go back to MIUI 9.5.19 if I wanted to?
Thanks!
I did same thing and it worked flawlessly.

You have a locked bootloader? You used a recovery ROM or a fastboot ROM (MiFlash tool)?
Thanks!

Just update through the phones settings with the zip file. You might need to try different MIUI 10 versions. There is always only one version you can go to from your current MIUI 9 version. Took me 4 tries but now it's working great

I flashed MIUI 8.7.26 through the method you mentioned without issues, but it has so many bugs, especially with notifications on lockscreen that bother me so much. Do you know if I can revert back to global stable MIUI 9 with the same method without issues with ARB?
—Answered— Thank You!!
Hi, I just bought Redmi Note 5 today and after I turn it on, it is already on MIUI 10 8.7.5 Global Beta. The question is, can I roll it back to to MIUI 9.6 Global Stable? Because I found this rom isn't comfortable and I found so many bugs. I don't want to update it to MIUI 10 stable yet because ppl in MIUI forums complained that there are some bugs.
Thanks
Wtf...New device came with Developer beta rom?

8.7.5 miui 10 is ARB3 you can rollback to 9.5 miui 9.5.17.0 thats last ARB3..
or get 9.6.4.0 thats ARB4.
How come new device comes with beta ROM?? Something wrong with reseller please contact ask them
Right now your device is on arb3 (no antirollback) you can upgrade to latest version with firmware less ROM

Hi , si
can i go back to miui 9.6.4? I currently have 10 miui but I want to return to that version, as I can do it safely, I do not want my cell phone to be as brick because of the antirollback.

Yes you can donwgrade to 9.6.4 just flash recovery ROM using updater
thanks so much for your answer. Miui 10 stable and miui 9.6.4 have arb4 is true? So i will not have some problem with my Xiaomi.

You can directly go from MIUI10 to 9.5.19
After downgrading just do a factory reset
Hello. I have been using Xiaomi.eu 20.6.18 based on MIUI 12.1
In a few days I think that they will release MIUI 12.0 based stable release but my phone has ARP so I think that downgrading will brick it, don't it?
Anyway, this weekly ROM is working well at the moment but I would like to use the stable version someday. I have some doubts so I will put numbers in them:
1. Can I go back to MIUI 12.0 based ROM while using MIUI 12.1 based ROM or not? without triggering anti-rollback
2. Can I switch to Pixel Experience (for example) which is using Android 10? It is a newer version of Android but I don't know how MIUI ARP handles it
3. If the point 2 answer is 'yes', I suppose that ARP is gone (at least Xiaomi's one) so, can I install Xiaomi.eu MIUI 12.0 from Pixel Experience? (I will be downgrading I know)
Thanks all of you for your future answers, and sorry for the number of questions. Any doubt about my explanation or something just ask
Arb only matters if u go back to very old version of miui ie, 9 and some version of miui 10....it doesn't matter with custom ROMs also...u can also check ur current arb status
No arb was implemented with miui 9.5.19 (global stable), so u can go till this version without bricking ur phone.
As u r on latest beta u have an index value of 4.

Yes u can go easily.
I will recommend to go with fast boot method if u plan returning to miui 11
(I've used miui 12 20.6.18 eu build and successfully returned to miui 11 without bricking)

Yes u can use the recovery method for returning back to miui 11.
Why i was recommending the fast boot method?
Bcoz I've seen if u flash global miui after flashing china based/eu roms, u cannot change ur region to other country other than china. Obviously this can be fixed by editing build.prop or flash region fix but u will have to root in the 1st case.
But u can try recovery method brother.
Yes miui 12 is better than 11 bcoz of new privacy features, ios style control center, no miui optimization api.
