Do not do this, because if you do, you will probably make your device unusable. Read this before: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-max-3/help/help-mi-max-3-hard-bricked-anti-roll-t3834769 and mostly this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-max-3/how-to/anti-rollback-activated-mi-max-3-t3830448

It is possible to go to 10.0.1.0 Global Oreo or Even 8.11.23 beta Oreo, etc.
You need to unlock bootloader first and then have some flash the firmware by remote EDL. Meaning you have to pay money for that service.
The only Oreo version you cannot go back to is 9.6.6.0, its just not possible because the ARB number is not 4.

This version of Miui does not, because the ARB is active. If you try, you'll probably have a lot of work to do to fix it. Have you tried any rom xiaomi.eu or any GSI? Overall, they are better than the global stock.

Is that still the case? I have a mix 2 with MIUI Global 10.0 stable 10.0.2 .0. Does it still not have anti rollback protection? Would I be safe to unlock the bootloader and install any custom ROM?

There's info on it in this thread of mine, and you can always unlock and flash custom ROMs. Just make sure that when you go back to MIUI that you flash MIUI via fastboot or MiFlash and not TWRP. Also use MiFlash to switch between MIUI beta and stable and when downgrading MIUI. But there is no problem with custom ROMs.

Thank you so much for the response. Your thread looks like it is jam-packed with some really useful information. I'm certainly going to read through it. In any case, in a nutshell does this mean that my phone currently does not have the anti roll back protection on it?

It has, but you can unlock and install custom ROMs. But if you go back to official MIUI, flash it via MiFlash or fastboot.

Yeah I know that... What I mean to say is. Most of the people download official ROM package from official website and try to flash update using custom recovery and this will cause mobile brick..
That's why Xiaomi suggest not to downgrade to Oreo after android pie update (miui android pie)

No it's a problem, even if you flashed firmware-less most of the functions won't work, at least that's what happened with me, no camera, no earpiece, no vibration and ofc more under the hood.
We're stuck on pie and even the custom ROMs need to be updated to the new vendor because the situation is the same.
Pie is so far so good but I'm surprised that exFAT isn't working!! now my sdcard is useless! i checked and the module is missing which is exfat.ko, don't know if they forgot to add it or what now!! also all the recoveries i tried give a problem with data and encryption so it need to be updated, other than that all is good.
Anyone tried latest xiaomi.eu build 9.3.25?

TBH I didn't try because of the problems I heard people were having. But with the original pie update I had to use orange fox recovery just to get out of encryption it was a mess. I am going to try to flash a pie rom but if you are flashing an Oreo MIUI make sure the firmware folder is not in the zip or you will brick your device.

Agreed. This seems a bit strange for me. Are you sure guys you cant simply go back to Oreo?
As long as anti is fine, it should not be a problem. Maybe there is a new mechanism now which we dont know.

I've Installed China and Global Pie then reflashed 10.2.2 without problems with MiFlash, haven't tried with custom recovery, i think you will not have problems.
Guess I will hold off MIUI Pie until its finalized.

Yes you can do anything if the anti version is same..
But Xiaomi recommends not to downgrade to Oreo after android pie update. (There won't be any problem as long as we use MiFlash tool)
Maybe Xiaomi will introduce new anti version for stable android pie update
Here http://en.miui.com/thread-6004916-1-1.html you can read moderator suggests not to flash Oreo ROM after updating to android pie.
Maybe Xiaomi moderator mentions same thing for our device during public beta release
For those stuck on the new miui pie, a possible solution:

Fake as tits.
I downgraded from 10 to 9 including hopping between some custom ROMs here and there and I'm currently running the latest Android 9 version.
Mi A2/Lite has anti rollback so this holds true, Mi A3 however does not.

Going back and forth between android versions on a device with an unlocked bootloader using a custom recovery, and doing so in a stock device are two pretty different things.

I'm new to xiaomi world, I just received this minor update today, but there are few bugs and lags, I want to revert back.
Both Roms are stock Stable Global EEA.
I don't know how to dowgrade, because recovery zip and update app not work, unable to downgrade.
Can you show me a complete guide to flash that firmware? I need unlocked bootloader?
Anything in particular I have to know?
