Hi,
I own a mi max 3 the (official international version), with its original MIUI global 11.0.4 stable.
11.0.4.0(QEDMIXM).
Can I expect anytime soon an official update to MIUI 12? And do you guys recommend it to install if it comes out?
Will i lose the ability to record phone calls if i update?
I just use this phone for browsing the internet and listening to internet radio only
They made us happy with a dead horse....
Just updated to miui 12.
Hi, i am currently on MIUI Global 11.04. (11.0.4.0. QEDMIXM) and just have one question as I got little bit confused about that so called Anti-Rollbackfeature:
If I upgrade to V12.0.1.0 which is the new MIUI 12 Global, can I flash back to 11.0.4.0. QEDMIXM if I dont like MIUi 12 or shouldn't I try this to don't risk a brick?
Thx!
completely surprised, updated to miui 12.
Update:
Stable update has been released.
Xiaomi announced they’ll upgrade the Redmi Note 8 Pro to Android 11 late last year. They have gone to update the global models, leaving the European variants waiting for some time now. Of course, the update was going to arrive, and perhaps, the company needed some time to address a few issues before the European release. Meanwhile, as expected, the Redmi Note 8 Pro Android 11-based MIUI 12.5 update in Europe is now available to select users.
The Redmi Note 8 Pro is receiving both Android 11 and MIUI 12.5 simultaneously, unlike the Redmi Note 8, that’s currently pushing Android 11 only. It is seeding with a version number – MIUI 12.5.2.0 RGGEUXM – and weighs in at 2.2GB. Coming along with the update are the features of the new MIUI OS to improve device performance and address some problems introduced by MIUI 12. Interestingly, the Android security patch level is pushed to July 2021 to increase system security and stability.
Of course, the update brings a stable MIUI based on Android 11, meaning that you get the features of the current Android OS as well. However, some known bugs are affecting all MIUI Android 11 builds. They include third-party launcher compatibility, ugly square chat bubbles, floating windows conflicting with keyboards, glitches, and lags. Luckily, you can improve the device’s performance by performing a factory reset after upgrading. However, that won’t fix the problems with the launcher as you need to revert to the MIUI system launcher.
Again, the Redmi Note 8 Pro Android 11-based MIUI 12.5 is a limited rollout. Those in Indonesia are also receiving the build with a version number – MIUI 12.5.2.0 RGGIDXM. It brings features of the new MIUI OS and a stable MIUI based on Android 11. Also, the Android security patch level has been pushed to July 2021 to increase system security and stability.

A11 will most likely be the last official update for this device, wouldn't be surprised if it will take till end of this year.
This works in global variant via TWRP, but I don't recommend it. I could not find a way to install Google Play, even though i tested a lot of tutorials, magisk, appstores.

not really since they re-release the RN8 variant....
might be A12 like the case with RN5
Global variant finally.... MIUI12.5 A11 Global sucks no fastboot so I guess you have to flash some MIUI version and then update, coming from POSP and not happy about it but oh well. Will post after I flash it and see how it is. Probably end up back on a custom ROM dislike MIUI bloated bs....

Stock MIUI is horrendous. Bloatware, permissions etc. I can't stand it.
I'm on PE+ 11 but would prefer an official LineageOS release (no such thing available for now). I would also consider a xiaomi.eu release but they dropped support for Begonia/Begoniain.
Compass.

seems it's for Mi Pilot only.... that's why it's bootloop
Actually, it's bootlooping due to custom recovery..
I just did it like this:
- Download MIUI 12.5 Global from xiaomifirmwareupdater
- Reboot to recovery
- Flash from recovery
- Reboot to bootloader (using adb reboot bootloader or just boot to fastboot mode by rebooting and holding down the VOL_DN)
- Flash stock recovery (get it from xiaomifirmwareupdater, download previous ROM and extract recovery.img)
And with above I'm currently running MIUI 12.5.1. It's basically updated, I've lost no data.
I'm gonna dig in tomorrow for flashing custom recovery if i can find some working with this..
EDIT:
It may be that in order for TWRP to work on this ROM, a full wipe will need to be performed.
It's bootlooping due to patched vbmeta (vbmeta flashed with --disable-verity --disable-verification). So I'm unable to get TWRP to work. We might need some developer assistance ?

I got it to install no issues I had to flash whatever the latest A10 MIUI ROM is from fastboot then it updated to 12.5 on its own. I am back on POSP I really just hate MIUI its bloated and slow, not worth the time or effort to be honest IMHO

Is Google Assistant and Android Auto working fine on that ROM? I've tried couple of A11 custom ROMs, they have issues with either GA or AA or both.

So my suspicion confirmed coz the old ROM zip got recovery image but the A11 ROM doesn't have so many files in it including recovery.img.
Thanks for confirmation & guide....
So, basically there's no way to root it for noW?

but without patching vbmeta, it'll just bootloop even with A11 ver TWRP, right?
one more question: can you activate Google Discovery feed on MIUI12.5 or it's stuck on App Vault?

nice, I'll try this tom...
so, flash the full fastboot A10 latest then A11, patch vbmeta, flash TWRP-A11 + magisk, then all is OK?

Work perfect and yes I feel ya I HATE that Google assistant doesn't work on most custom roms. Let me say this POSP is updated weekly, stable, smooth and everything works. Everything. My phone will like die with this time installed. Hoping the maintainer does A12 soon.
Hi,
using a complete stock Redmi Note 8 Pro. Installed with FW 12.0.5.0 (A10) Stable. All stock nothing changed or unlocked.
It is not possible to update this phone to any newer FW Release
Tried all existing newer Releases (12.5.2.0, 12.5.3.0, .... 12.5.7.0). It is EU Model.
Error Message:
Sorry, flash to this stable Version is not allowed.
Miui Version: MIUI Global 12.0.6 Stable - 12.0.6.0 (QGGEUXM)
Found some other People with the same issue on german Forum, but nobody found a solution for this. Maybe here is someone who can help.
Just unlock bootloader and lock it with newer version if you want...
And there're some tricks on YouTube that can flash recovery file with that updater. Try to find it
