Nah it's ok you can downgrade to 9.6.4 from MIUI 10 using fastboot rom or using trwp. I did it at least 3 times without any issues.

Can I install MIUI 8.7.26 (MIUI10) without worrying about ARB?

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?

Am I safe to proceed?

I'll be able to unlock my bootloader in less than 24h, and the first ROM I want to try is the Pixel Experience ROM (android P). I'm currently on MIUI 10 8.8.23 Global version. Can I just unlock the bootloader, flash RedWolf Recovery through adb, do a full wipe and flash Pixel ROM without worrying about ARB or anything?
Thanks!

Umm dude read my post again. I said I'm on MIUI 10 8.8.23 (which is the latest one), I don't want to flash MIUI, but I want to flash Pixel Experience ROM. How will that trigger ARB? I understand very well that if I want to go back to MIUI, I need to flash the latest version of MIUI available.

Just flash pixel ROM
For other custom ROMs do not flash any firmware file recommended by custom ROM developer, because those firmware files are 8.7.5 MIUI firmware. If you try to flash firmware files then you are going to brick your device

Not yet, still 2 hours to go.
I'm on the latest MIUI 10.0.0.1 stable Chinese.
I just want to flash the latest Global. Can I do this by just unlocking bootloader, flash RedWolf Recovery, then flash the latest Global recovery.zip file? Or do I need to worry about ARB?
If you want to go back, make sure you will flash these version or higher

Q about rollback

—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

You can directly go from MIUI10 to 9.5.19
After downgrading just do a factory reset

If you have twrp recovery then just flash 9.6.2.0 fw less rom
Hi. I have a Redmi Note 5 (pro) Global version. I hate MIUI 10 too and want to roll back to 9.5.19 (which seems less buggy than 9.6.x) . Got the ROM from a great thread from miui dot com which I can't post being new here
The updater app tells me that I can't flash older versions
Recovery mode doesn't even offer flashing ROMs.
I can't unlock the bootloader now (have tried once, now have to wait 360hrs to try again??)
Am I stuck with MIUI 10?
THanks

You can roll back to Miui 9.6.4.0 with no problem from Miui10.

anti roll back and custom roms

can I switch from global miui to beta without having problems with anti roll back?
twrp and custom roms should be in accordance with the status of the anti-roll back system?
thanks

You can just make sure your flashing an ARB enabled ROM and later than version your using. Custom ROMs are not affected by this so dont worry just get the right recovery like orange fox
Thanks for asking me that question.
Hello experts,
I wanna downgrade from miui 11 v11.0.1.0 (QEDMIXM) to Miui11 V 11.0.7.0 (PEDMIXM), is it safe to downgrade without hardbrick? Secondly, I checked, both roms have ARB level 4 protection. Need your expert advise before going to downgrade.
Thanks in advance
