Hi,
I'm new to Mi Max & Locked bootloader stuff. I ws using Mi4 before gettin this phone. Im not new to flashing. I have some questions, hope someone wil help me.
1. Currently im on 7.5.4.1. Can i flash MIui 8 global dev directly on 7.5.4.1 or i need to follow some procedure?
2. For ROOT, i have to unlock the bootloader and i have already sent the request for unlocking which might take some days. Is there any other way to root and install TWRP?

Follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-max/how-to/guide-install-global-miui8-root-t3435594
Make sure you follow the instructions carefully as there are different versions, i.e. Hydrogen (32gb) or Helium (64/128gb).

Bootloader unlocked.
Now can i flash miui rom zips directly in recovery(twrp) or still need to flash in fastboot?
If i flash in fastboot, will my bootloader still stay unlocked or will it get locked?
Will i get ota updates if im using twrp?
I unlocked my mobile bootloader and install twrp using pc. But from some reason I need to flash custom rom by MI flash beta software after that my custom TWRP change into MI recovery 3.0 so please help me to install twrp again

Why you don't use the way of first time you did it? You can use Flasify with root too.

Did you activate USB-Debugging on your device and did you start MiFlash while your device was in fastboot mode?

Hi, I had upgraded my Mi A2 Lite to Pie and the had Twrp installed and Rooted it with Magisk. Tried installing multiple treble ROMS, all had issues, last one had the wirless feature not working, so I gave up and went back to stock using a twrp backup that I have created before ... to my surprise wifi was still not working on stock !! Can you please let me know how you solved it and where did you obtain that stock ROM??
Hi all
My note 5 pro is Global ver, 6gb/64gb. I was on Oreo last ver, just before few days I received notification for Pie, so without a 2nd thought I downloaded and installed that. The Pie ver is stable 10.3.1.0 PEIMIXM and now regretting why I did that. The battery drain is horrible, it drains like crazy, on Oreo my battery used to last at least 2 to 2.5 days whereas this one just dies in 1 day, the usage is less then the previous usage in Oreo.
Now the question is how can I revert back to Oreo from this Pie, if at all possible.
The phone does not have TWRP but the bootloader is Unlocked.
Any help is appreciated.

Download oreo fastboot file and flash it with mi flash tool(select clean all if u want to keep bl unlocked)
U can flash recovery rom file and flash it via twrp.but fastboot flash is recommended
Will this not brick my phone as trying to go back to previous ver of ROM.. and due to this Anti-RollBack policy?

Yes.the fastboot file has all the the files to make it stock.but remove pin/password to avoid encryption issues
its been awhile since i have flashed anything on a phone. last time i did it was on my note 4...anyways, i also want to do this since my battery doesn't last long and dual apps for Pokemon Go, isn't working like i had it before.
my bootloader is locked. I know i have to unlock it via MUI website and write the reason i wan to unlock it. how long does it take for them to unlock it?
what should i write to them?
does unlocking the bootloader mean its rooted or do i have to have a custom rom?
also, im confused on what model my phone is. i checked my model name: its M1803E7SH
i checked online and it says that its the redmi note 5 as well as the redmi note 5 pro..so im wondering if this method will work on my phone. pleaaaase help

You dont have to write any reason to unlock bootloader.
visit en.miui.com/unlock page login with your mi account and proceed with unlocking procedure, you may need to wait 360 hours before unlocking bootloader (depending on your mi account activity)
your's is Redmi Note 5/Pro model name WHYRED. you can download Redmi Note 5 Pro ROM package and flash it on your mobile

sorry for all these questions. i dont want to brick my phone
so i went to http://en.miui.com/unlock/ and clicked to unlock. once it was done i clicked on the file "miflash_unlock" then i logged into my mi account. I didnt see where to write the reason for unlocking. so does that mean i am able to unlock it? i just didnt connect my phone yet.
