Hello.
I have a bootloader unlocked, twrp and a custom rom (now its havoc) and I had Xiaomi.eu too.
There is any way to back to global miui without brick my phone?
Thank you.
will not brick the device.
There are two ways to install MIUI for you:
1) Use MI Flash to install the Stock-ROM through fastboot (you will have the option to lock the bootloader or not, and you will lose the TWRP)
2) Download the ROM that is installed by Recovery and install as any ROM. (You will not miss the TWRP)

It's so simple as that? I will not have any problem about anti-rollback?
I have restore using old backup nothing lose using redwolf with arb enabled. No need reflash.

he may have done something wrong, it happens, but if you do it right you will not have the bricked device.
First rom with arb v4 was 9.5.19, so u can install anything from this to latest 10.2.0.1 (imo best choice). You cant brick phone unless you try to flash older roms.

Wrong information... One can easily install any ROM between 9.5.19 to 10.2.1
Use fastboot method to return back to global stable

Probably she flashed older version of Oreo ROM (below 9.5.17 version)
And MIUI based on android pie is around the corner for our device.. After installing android PIE miui ROM there is no chance to install Oreo based miui ROM

Try both and enjoy. Why limit to one ROM
Stock ROM is somewhat stable
With custom ROM you will get android pie

Just flash ROM and gapps and don't flash firmware while flashing custom ROM
While flashing stock MIUI ROM use fastboot ROM to flash and there won't be any chances of brick. MiFlash software checks bootloader index before flashing a ROM so it is safer way

You can also use latest recovery ROM and flash it using TWRP recovery

So Finally installed GCAM after unlocking the bootloader , installed Redwolf recovery & rooted with Magisk & its working good. Will i be able to upgrade to MIUI 10 with OTA or have to follow some other process?
Also, which ROM & kernel setup do you use.
Thanks in advance!

Yes you can upgrade to MIUI10.. but you have to flash full recovery ROM, still you will get OTA update from xiaomi but its always recommended to flash complete recovery ROM
hi! I'm having problems with wi-fi and mobile connection and I am on a custom ROM at the moment
my question is:
if I flash **complete** MIUI ROM (latest 10.0) without locking the phone using Xiaomi tool, would I still be able to install TWRP and custom ROMs without bricking the phone?
I am not interested in previous versions of MIUI so obviously I wouldn't be downgrading MIUI versions
Yes you can, remember that custom ROM not have firmware so your arb status will not be touched

yes use fastboot rom and miflash to get back to miui 10. thats ARB4. remeber to tick clean all in miflash dont relock bootloader. and then you can install twrp and any custom roms.
Hey, I've done the mistake to make the update to MIUI 10, and I think the GUI is horrible so, I want to change my ROM... But I get installation error any time. I think it's due to the firmware. If I have understood, I can't downgrade because of the anti roll back system. How can I do?
I would like to install the Resurrection Remix ROM
Thanks.
The custom ROM not have the firmware so no problem with ARB status, anyway you can check it directly from original post of RR

1) Verify which ARB version you have (search this forum, fastboot getvar anti)
2) What installation error you are getting?
3) If you go in the relevant thread there are relevant installation instructions... It's quite the usual process, TWRP, wipe, etc... (it's documented in relevant thread, no need to tailor for you).
After going to MIUI 10, you can't go back to MIUI 9. This is due to ARB. You can install AOSP rom if you don't want to go with MIUI 10.
Also dont try to install MIUI 9 your phone will get bricked.

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.

What about that thing called anti rollback? Im afraid to brick the device.
Good question .. and do you still recieve OTA updates for the official rom if you unlock the BL ?

You don't have to worry about antirollback..
Your device will be bricked if you try to flash 9.5.17 or older version
But you can flash any MIUI ROM from 9.5.19 and newer
Antirollback doesn't apply to custom ROM
Just keep two things.
Flash latest Miui ROM
Flash custom recovery (first boot into recovery and then flash recovery from recovery)
Wipe everything
Flash custom ROM
Flash gapps
Thats all
Do not flash any older firmware. Your device will not be bricked a long as you are flashing latest available miui ROM

Stock ROM with locked bootloader... I like official update (I have tried all the custom ROMs on my previous phone so )
If I flash for example fw_alioth_miui_ALIOTHEEAGlobal_V13.0.4.0.SKHEUXM_17e135935d_12.0 and another custom ROM wants fw_alioth_miui_ALIOTHEEAGlobal_V12.5.8.0.RKHEUXM_5e087090df_11.0 (v12 basically) will I trigger ARB and brick the phone? Or what is it that triggers ARB?

First of all these are not custom roms but stock roms.
The brick only if your device is Chinese and you lock the bootloader on a rom other than Chinese
Then either you use Miflash or Twrp.
If you use Miflash and encounter the ARB problem, the flash will not work and that's it, edit the script and delete the lines concerning ARB.

I meant like, if Pixel Experiance ROM requires a specific fw version. I thought that if you flashed a older fw then you trigger ARB and you brick the phone. It was so on my Redmi Note 5 from what I understand. Is it not so on Poco F3? I'm talking about flashing in TWRP. And the firmware I'm talking about is from here https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/archive/firmware/alioth/ i.e not the whole MIUI ROM, just the firmware

Flashing a firmware for an AOSP rom is no problem, but sometimes you have to flash the complete rom.
Twrp:
Format data write yes
reboot twrp
flash firmware
reboot Twrp
Follow OP instructions

Ok, so let's say I have flashed MIUI 13 and the custom ROM wants MIUI 12 /fw v12 I can flash it without triggering ARB? Good in that case

Format data erases your data and creates a new partition if necessary so yes it is preferable.
