I'm about to buy a Redmi Note 5 from AliExpress, but there are Chinese Version with Global ROM which the seller has to open the box in order to install the Global ROM. My question is whether the seller has to open (disassemble) the device itself in order to do Test Point Method and unlock bootloader then install ROM? Or there are other methods to install Global ROM on Chinese Version, and buying these devices are guaranteed to be not touched.
Anyone can confirm?

I already know that, but this isn't what I'm asking about.
I ask about the way AliExpress sellers use to install global ROM.

They do that way. They have VIP account which can unlock without waiting.

I'm new here and I'm confused about the official global rom for the xiaomi mi max 3. I got 2 questions:
1) Is there an official global rom for it?
2) Where can I buy a legit xiaomi mii max 3 phone WITH OFFICIAL rom already installed from?

Yes, the recovery version of global stable is available for download. If you have a chinese variant phone without TWRP recovery, you need the fastboot version of the ROM to flash it but it's not available for download right now.

If you live in Europe you can buy the official global version from the European warehouse of honorbuy.

I live in USA. I want the US-english version of this phone. That said, where can I buy it with the fastboot version to be able to install TWRP and root it?
I am confused with anything MIUI... ROM versions, MIUI versions, Android versions... They must be choosing those numbers randomly from a bowl with balls like a lottery.

if u want global version, u need to wait few more days. if u planning to root it, just go for chinese version from ali or shenzhengtrading ask for chinese original version.

Hi ryanllts,
Yes I want the global rom. But are you saying I cannot root the global rom? That the only way to root is through the chinese rom?
Given that it's now a total lottery as to how long it takes to get a BL unlock code from Xiaomi (could be up to 2 months), what's the best option?
Is it buying one with a Chinese ROM and unlocked BL, then immediately swapping to Xiaomi.EU / Global / RevolutionOS?
I don't much fancy a wait of up to 2 months to use a phone I've bought.
I've done this. Works fine with roms etc. Just have to be wary of making sure you know what your flashing etc.

Yes, get it from Tradingshenzen or similar with xiaomi.eu installed. Makes your life way easier. You can literally flash 8.8.9 eu or Revolution OS with a factory reset from TWRP and root.
Q. Hello,Is this finally true sealed Global Version with MIUI 9.6.7.0 and b20 or still with just Xiaomi.eu rom?Answer:
A. It should be now some 9.9 Version, from September, so no problems anymore.
This tends to suggest that Trading Shenzhen may now be supplying 'official' versions. So unclear whether BL will still be unlocked.

If you pick Xiaomi.eu as the preinstalled ROM it will always be a bootloader unlocked one they send your way.

They don't have that option currently. I'm not sure whether they will in future, I've asked the question.
Hi guys,
Could you guys suggest to me a website that sells the xiaomi mi max 3 with EU rom? Or is it possible to buy a global rom and flash it with EU rom?
.

The rom from xiaomi.eu is not an official firmware, it's a custom rom based on China rom with some tweaks. You can flash it on both China and Global device.

I'm a bit confused. I just want to buy it so I can root and nandroid it if possible. So you suggest that I buy the global version then flash it with official EU rom? I'm confused.
before Global rom released tradingshenzhen used to have option whether you want your phone shipped with china rom or EU rom.
but ever since official global rom released, they only ship with global rom option.
you can just buy any phone with global rom and flash it with EU rom.
this required unlock bootloader wait time varies from hours to days.
there are guides about this everywhere.

Hi pakudaboy. So I can buy any phone with global rom and flash it with EU rom like you said. But you also said the bootloader can take hours or days to unlock if I flash with EU rom? Is this accurate? How is that possible?

hi there,
sorry for the late reply.
yes you can flash EU rom over global rom version once you unlocked your bootloader.
unlocking bootloader for xiaomi depends on your xiaomi account. if you never use that account to unlock before then it might take days of wait time to get verified. in my opinion it's all worth it. since Max 3 is a good phone in all specs (yes including camera with google camera moded)
just fyi, EU rom is based on china dev rom. and it has been stable for pretty much all users.

I wouldn't buy from those shops if you want a global device.
When you look in the reviews you see Chinese devices on all photos.
But if you are flashing EU rom is doesn't matter if you have global or Chinese device, hardware is the same, only the charger is different.
Edit:
At the moment Banggood is the cheapest:

They sell official Global devices. And when you choose priority direct mail you don't have extra import costs.

Hello, is it possible to flash the China rom to a global rom device without rooting?
If yes, where I can get this China rom?
And:
Will the China rom work with the EU Providers? (In my case its Germany)
Thanks for your answers.
Best Regards
Dennis

Just download the cn rom from nubia. Why you want to is beyond me? Stay with global

Because I heared on the cn rom are more software features implemented.
Because face unlock and root without breaking fingerprint reader with the China ROM. I just tried installing Black Magic 5G on my global 12/256, and it's currently stuck in TWRP, won't flash anything correctly, won't boot, I'm assuming it's a global ROM issue, I'm trying to figure out how to flash the China ROM so I can start over and try Black Magic 5G again to see if that improves my results, so far I can't even get it to flash.
But if anyone wants it, I found a mega link to the latest China ROM that's suppose to be flashable through the factory recovery or TWRP. I haven't been able to get it working in TWRP, but if anyone wants to upload a TWRP backup of stock 12/256 global ROM so I can revert back to factory recovery and try flashing the China ROM that way, would be appreciated.

china rom will work on any region device.
Android 11 version of all 5G/S roms are universally able to flash.
you need to flash through system / local update, and you need to use the full rom zip.
...
features of China rom.
--China rom is bloated heavily with chinese apps that wont work in other regions due to needing a Nubia account ( which can only be made using a Chinese registered Phone number)
--these apps can be frozen / disabled.
there is no gapps / playstore. you need to install playstore seperately and then install the various google apps you use.
--stock rom you cannot change the launcher without doing some little tweaks.
-- NFC does NOT function in China rom, if you use NFC or want to use NFC, you will have to return to Global.
you do not need to root, or unlocked your device to change regions. just make sure you're locally updated to android 11, and install the region rom you wish through the system menu.
Hi,
Did someone tried to change MIUI EEA or Global to China on Pad 5?
If yes, how looks case with GMS?
Widevine for sure won't be working.

I bought the device in Germany. Delivery status was with EEA ROM. after unlocking the bootloader, I flashed the CN ROM. everything is going great. Just wanted to restore the original condition, but I've now decided to leave everything as it is. The CN has more features and never change a running system!
