I had this device for two days now, one of the first things that I tried was to install a custom ROM and I was surprised of how hard it was to do, so after a lot of trial and error I managed to install those two ROMs so I wanted to share how I did it so nobody has to suffer like I
Okay so I have tried two methods, one worked for Pixel Experience and the other for Lineage OS, there are probably better ways to do this so be sure to reply to this thread if you find another ways to accomplish this!
IMPORTANT!:
1. I did the two of this methods with the stock ROM with a minimal setup (skipping wifi, no google login, no fingerprint, etc).
2.You need to have the bootloader unlocked.
3. Im not responsable if you brick your phone or lose your data, do the following steps if you know what you're doing and always back-up your data!!!
Files used:
TWRP link (Download both the img and the zip)
Pixel Experience link
LineageOS link
Gapps link
Magisk 20.1 link
Encryption patch (patch_no_fde10) link
Method 1 (Tested succesfully with Pixel Experience):
Thanks to ElSuperFullHD for creating an awesome guide in how to install Pixel Experience!
How to install Pixel Experience in Xiaomi mi a3 (Spanish guide)
1. Start your phone in fastboot mode.
2. use fastboot getvar current-slot (Check if phone is in slot a, if it isnt change it to a using fastboot set_active a)
3. Flash custom recovery (in this case I used TWRP) with fastboot flash boot twrp.img
4. reboot using fastboot reboot (NOTE : Before hitting "Enter", long press Vol + on your device until you see the Android One logo. By doing this your device will be forced to boot into Recovery and not into System).
5. When TWRP starts, move and flash TWRP zip (This will make the recovery to stay) and reboot into recovery again (Long press Vol + when the device starts until you boot into recovery).
6. Go to advanced wipe Dalvic cache, Data and System.
7. Install Pixel Experience ROM and TWRP zip again and restart to system.
8. You're done, enjoy!
Method 2 (Tested succesfully with LineageOS):
Thanks to suschmania for your extremely helpful comment, I wouldnt have figured how to install LineageOS without him!
1. Start your phone in fastboot mode.
2. use fastboot getvar current-slot (Check if phone is in slot a, if it isnt change it to a using fastboot set_active a)
3. Flash custom recovery (in this case I used TWRP) with fastboot flash boot twrp.img
4. reboot using fastboot reboot (NOTE : Before hitting "Enter", long press Vol + on your device until you see the Android One logo. By doing this your device will be forced to boot into Recovery and not into System).
5. Once in TWRP copy TWRP recovery zip into the phone and wipe Dalvic cache, Data, Vendor and System.
6. Install the ROM and TWRP recovery zip (This will make the recovery to stay).
7. Reboot into recovery (twrp shows the warning no os installed, continue anyway).
8. The filesystem will be decrypted (All folders corrupted) dont worries, just go to advanced wipe and wipe internal data, once that's done copy Gapps, magisk and the encryption patch into the phone).
9. Flash Gapps, magisk (Optional) and encryption patch.
10. Reboot to system (It may take up to 10 minutes to start so give it time, if more than 10 minutes passes see step 11).
11. In case of bootlop boot back into recovery and format data (its the one where you need to write yes to format), after its done reboot to system again.
12. You're done, enjoy!
I hope this guide was helpful to you, good luck!
thanks so much for this! Been flashing since andriod 1.6 but couldnt wrap my dumb head around these dual partitions.

The 1st method for Pixel Experience does not work for me, after following all the steps carefully, if i boot into system it boots me to fastboot everytime, or if I dont reboot to system (in TWRP after flashing everything) it only says no OS installed are you sure you want to continue, so any help?

the "no os installed" is normal, dont worries.
The installation method for pixel experience worked when I installed the old version, it was updated multiple times so probably the process changed, I will update the thread later
This dual slot fuking my mind up.
TWRP asking for password to decrypt data. while first boot in recovery.
also *unable to decrypt FBE device* error while formating data.
"couldnt able to flash Any ROM "unable to partition path/cache" error.
ps. flashed in slot a.

Don't tell him to downgrade. If you downgrade you will lose the use of all sensors or proximity sensor, compass etc and to fix this you need to flash persist.img which will cause you to lose widevine L1 so say goodbye to hd streaming and the like.
Be careful what information you give people if it will cause massive issues.
Its not that straightforward to just downgrade

Indeed, it's not as straight forward, but it's possible without losing Widevine L1 security level; read my experience here, I explained the steps I took ; so far, I came back to v11.0.8.0 QFQMIXM from v10.3.17.0 PFQEUXM after the downgrade, with no issues whatsoever (no format/wipe data); my DRM Keys and sensors remains intact.

Then what to do? I downgraded from Android 10 Stock to Android 9 Stock 3.13.0.PFQMIXM because I soft-bricked my phone. I Flashed the stock ROM using Mi Flash tool. It flashed OK but my MI A3 sensors are not working. Someone said Flash persist.img via TWRP but when I try to flash it asked me in which partition to flash.
Partitions available are:
bluetooth
modem
System Image
Dtbo
Vendor Image
splash
Boot
Install Recovery Ramdisk
I am confused where to flash. If this method isnt suitable as you said then guide me what to do. I have Global Fastboot ROM for Android 9 Version 3.16.0.PFQMIXM for Mi A3 available. Should I flash this using Mi Flash tool? Does it solve sensor issues or not? Please help.

If you are on stock android 9 now then flash an android 10 custom rom and then downgrade to android 9 like you did. Downgrading from stock 10 to stock 9 causes big issues like you are having.
If you did flash persist.IMG you would have caused stuff in your device to break forever without any way of fixing it don't do it!!

I updated it to Stock Android 10 OTA update using TWRP Recovery and re-flashed TWRP and Magisk ZIP using TWRP and now sensors and phone is working fine. I know Android 10 for Mi A3 have some bugs but I decided to live with it until Stable Android 10 update made available by Xiaomi. Flashing Custom Android 10 ROMs have mixed reviews and have bugs so I decided to stay on Stock.
I tried flashing persist.img by mounting Persist partition using TWRP before doing this but nothing happens and sensors didn't worked. Now they are working.

I have a problem. I am stuck on fastboot. I followed the tutorial unto step 4:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot flash boot twrp.img
target reported max download size of 803475456 bytes
sending 'boot_a' (39892 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.910s]
writing 'boot_a'...
OKAY [ 0.197s]
finished. total time: 1.111s
But after this the phone always reboots to fastboot, I can't boot into TWRP or the system. Plz help.

I know you solved it but the reason the other twrp wasn't working for you is because it is built only for Android pie and I'm assuming you have Android 10. That's why you always booted to fastboot. The installer.zip will work with any Android version but the twrp.img files are built using kernels of a specific Android version

Ok thx for the info.
Another question. I didn't understand step 5:
"5. When TWRP starts, move and flash TWRP zip (This will make the recovery to stay)"
Where do I have to move and flash the ZIP? I just skipped this step and now I have the ROM installed which I wanted (PE Plus).
Do I have to do something now or is TWRP installed properly now? Can I fetch this step later?

For you I don't think twrp is installed now. Some ROMs have twrp built in but if not then you have to manually flash twrp every time you flash a ROM or it gets overwritten with stock recovery.
When you flash the twrp.img and boot twrp it isn't actually installed, you are running it in ram and when you reboot it goes out of ram and your left with an un-bootable slot due to your boot slot being messed up from flashing the twrp.img and twrp won't stay installed.
For it to be installed properly you need to flash twrp.zip which will patch your boot.img with twrp and install it.
But as I said everytime you flash a ROM this will overwrite twrp and it will be gone unless the twrp.zip is flashed in twrp before rebooting.
Not as easy as it used to be by just installing twrp once and it is there forever. The new era of Android
I have finally unlocked the bootloader (no guides mention it will wipe my phone at the same time!).
Now I am looking again at Roms, HentaiOS and ArrowOS were contenders but Xiaomi.EU sounds like the best of all factors, a Poco F3 centric, manufacturer update with added functionality and removed bloat.
I have watched several "guides" to install, including this one (
) and this one (
) both seem to assume that I am not retarded!
I would like a really easy, step-by-step guide to how to install this Rom.
Do I need to install ADB? Some people say to load the Xiaomi.EU rom in internal storage but to wipe the phone first, so how would I do that? Some say I should BOOT TWRP, others say I need to install it? huh?
There has to be a "explain it to me like im three years old", guide to this!? ACK!

You don't "install" ADB and Fastboot. Those are protocols through which a PC can talk to an Android device for debugging purpose and other purposes like this.
The Fastboot Mode on an Android phone lets you deep system stuff, like modifying partitions (flashing, erasing, etc.)
ADB lets you do more high-level stuff, like removing system apps, granting/removing permissions to apps, pulling/pushing files from/onto storage.
To speak to those protocols, you need the portable Command Line Tools for ADB & Fastboot built by Google:
SDK Platform Tools release notes | Android Studio | Android Developers
Android SDK Platform-Tools is a component for the Android SDK.
developer.android.com
First, you unlock the bootloader (which factory-resets your phone, lol),
then you put the ROM zip-file (e.g. Xiaomi.eu Custom ROM) onto the phone storage,
then you reboot your phone into Fastboot Mode (POWER + Volume Down),
then, in Fastboot, you boot TWRP (a Custom Recovery):
Open Command Prompt inside the Platform-Tools folder,
do "fastboot boot TWRP.img" (assuming the TWRP file name is "TWRP.img")
then you flash the ROM inside TWRP,
then you format data & clear Dalvik Cache,
that's it. I hope I haven't forgotten anything.
I'd also like to include some Notes that I have made for myself in a text file:

Good job!
You could almost give us a guide on the dedicated "how to" section
However I read that to start twrp from fastboot using cmd you need to put the twrp(filename).img on the platform tool folder. Right?

Oh yes, that command also assumes TWRP.img is inside the same folder.
What I do is drag 'n drop the TWRP file into the CMD-window. The full path to the TWRP-file will automatically be written in the CMD-window.

Since I rooted the galaxy s5 I try to carefully read as much information as possible before performing any modding operation.
Both from the positive and negative experiences of the users it is possible to avoid errors and bricks.
In a few hours I can unlock the bootloader and move to the stable of xiaomi.eu, I can't wait
I went from "miui stock 12.5.3" EEA to "xiaomi.eu stable 12.5.6." and everything went well!
The steps I took are as follows:
1) I have unlocked the bootloader;
2) I copied the image of the latest TWRPnebrassy recovery in C: \ platform-tools;
3) I copied the .zip file of xiaomi.eu-12.5.6 in the phone memory;
4) After enabling usb debug I restarted the phone in fastboot and connected it to the pc;
5) in the "C: \ platform-tools" folder, I started a cmd window;
6) in cmd I typed the following command
Code:
fastboot boot TWRP.img
Then the phone rebooted into TWRP;
7) "in TWRP" I went to "INSTALL" and selected the .zip file of the rom and started the flash;
8) Completed the flash (it takes a few minutes) I went to "WIPE" and I formatted "data";
9) Subsequently I rebooted in the system (the first start takes a few more minutes, wait);
Done;

Yes. They're both TWRP 3.5.2, but they are still different from each other.
With Vasishoth's you may get "Failed to mount" errors right at the start.
If you face any errors, you can always switch TWRP.
also, can this be flashed directly from an AOSP ROM?
@Dhruv.m Xiaomi.eu can't be dirty-flashed on an AOSP ROM, if that's your question.
There's a low chance that it may boot, but it'll be broken & unusable.

Nah I'm not asking that, I'm asking that do I need to go back to MIUI before flashing xiaomi.eu or can it be installed cleanly from an AOSP ROM?

That's right what @dreamytom says, I personally haven't tried vasishasht's, so I can't tell you.
I know that the xiaomi.eu flash works well if you start from the stock, starting from an aosp I don't know, errors could arise, so I would avoid.
I used the nebrassy one because the xiaomi.eu installation package flashes the nebrassy twrp, so it seemed like the right choice.
So I advise you to install the .eu starting from a stock miui.
Hi. It has been almost 7 years since i have flashed any rom. I wanted easy way to flash xiaomi eu in Mi 11x, indian variant.
In this thread - https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/did-anyone-installed-xiaomi-eu-on-mi-11x.4276167/
it was said that you can flash fastboot rom by renaming alioth to aliothin in 'windows_fastboot_first_install_with_data_format.bat' file. This methods feels way more easy than flashing TWRP.
Nowadays many users here and on youtube are flashing roms with recovery using TWRP. Is there any reason to use TWRP method instead of fastboot method. It seems TWRP method uses more custom things having higher chances of bricking the phone. in fastboot we are using default MIUI fastboot making it safer. Anyone experienced in flashing what would be the easiest way to flash EU Rom in Mi 11x (indian variant?
Hi there,
different roms have different methods of flashing nowadays, and especially for our device.
Fastboot flashing is incredibly easy. Just boot into fastboot and run the windows_fastboot_first_install_with_data_format.bat
which will be extracted with the rom.
before you do this please make sure you have unlocked the bootloader which takes 7 days to receive an unlock token from xiaomi servers.

Fastboot rom at EU is only when there isn't any TWRP available.
This said you have to go with TWRP for any update or change you need.
Last: Said less risk of hard brick with TWRP than fastboot process.
In order to install EU rom latest via TWRP it is so simply to boot TWRP in fastboot and install the rom.
Twrp will stay permanent once done.
NOTE:
Be careful to install a rom Aliothin compatible, nevertheless TWRP will stop you before going in trouble if any.

To flash xiaomi.eu the best way is to use twrp, also because the latest version is not in fastboot.
- First unlock the bootloader!
- Then disable Driver Signature Verification in Windows 10:
How to Enable or Disable Driver Signature Enforcement in Windows 10
How to Enable or Disable Driver Signature Enforcement and Test Mode in Windows 10
www.tenforums.com
- Download and install miflashtool then go to the driver option and install the phone drivers (It is the program you will need if you want to return to stock safely, keep it):
Xiaomi Flash Tool - Official Mi Flash Tool
Download the latest and Official Xiaomi Flash Tool from the Official Xiaomi Flash Tool Website.
xiaomiflashtool.com
- Now you will need adb and fastboot, so download platform tool from here and put platform tool folder in c:\
SDK Platform Tools release notes | Android Studio | Android Developers
Android SDK Platform-Tools is a component for the Android SDK.
developer.android.com
- Now restart your pc.
Then follow these steps:
{To flash xiaomi.eu you must first launch twrp, then...}
1) download the twrp image from here:
[RECOVERY] [12] [OFFICIAL] TeamWin Recovery Project
Introduction: Team Win Recovery Project or TWRP for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. We started from the ground up by taking AOSP recovery and loading it with the standard recovery options, then added...
forum.xda-developers.com
2) Put the image filenametwrp.img in the platform tool folder;
3) Go to the platform tool folder, rename the filenametwrp.img to twrp.img;
4) (In the phone) make sure you have enabled usb debug in developer settings and have authorized the pc.
5) Download the xiaomi.eu rom .zip file for your mobile phone and put it in the phone memory
Xiaomi European Community | MIUI ROM Since 2010
MIUI ROM Global Language creators since 2010 providing support for Xiaomi MIUI and Mi Home products
xiaomi.eu
6) Now turn off the phone and start it in fastboot mode, then connect it to the pc via the usb cable
7) Go to the platform tool folder and in the address bar type cmd and hit enter (a prompt window should open) then type this command
Code:
fastboot devices
to check if it is recognized
8) if the phone code appears you can boot twrp by typing this
Code:
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
hit enter and the phone should boot into twrp
9) Now in twrp go to install and look for the .zip file of the rom you put before, then flash it.
10) When it finishes (it takes a few minutes) go back, go to the wipe section then advanced wipe and format datadata, then restart in the system. (It will remain on the miui logo for several minutes, wait, then the configuration should start.)
If you follow all the steps everything should go smoothly, but if you have any problems or questions you can ask.

Hello everybody,
I have phone Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 (2021)
I have succesfuly unlocked bootloader. I wish to use GSI installed via DSU Loader and i managed to boot default GSI room offered by system this way.
Also i have used app "DSU Sideloader" and succesfuly managed to boot lineageOS GSI.
The issue is when i root the phone. (classic boot.img extraction from stock rom, modification of the boot.img within Magisk aplication, than flash modified boot.img via adb tools)
After flashing modified boot.img i can no longer boot GSI, boot process will stop on MIUI screen. Stock ROM is working fine (rooted or not rooted)
When i flash original boot.img everything is working fine but phone is not rooted.
Is there any fix for this problem? I wish to have phone rooted AND use GSI
After countless hours of searching over internet i have not found topic related to this specific issue.
Also I have tried
fastboot flash --disable-verity --disable-verification boot boot.img
and modified vbmeta.img
fastboot --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
no difference
But i have no idea what is holding back boot.... any help would be much appreciated
GSI related info:
Treble and VNDK - device supported
Architecture ARM64
A/B operating system
Dynamic Partitions
Talking about working GSI is there anybody which managed to install GAPPS on GSI installed via DSU? Is that even possible? how without twrp recovery?
i know that GSIs with preinstalled gapps exists i just want modular approach and install just google apps which i use.
I have found that resizing GSI system partition could help flash gapps via Ex Kernel Manager directly from the phone.
My big question is if you can resize GSI system partition without TWRP? since Note 2021 does not support recovery, if yes how?
Or can you actually set bigger system partition than system image with this command ? --el KEY_SYSTEM_SIZE $(du -b system_raw.img|cut -f1) \
(following manual steps for gsi installation)
adb shell setprop persist.sys.fflag.override.settings_dynamic_system true
adb shell am start-activity \
-n com.android.dynsystem/com.android.dynsystem.VerificationActivity \
-a android.os.image.action.START_INSTALL \
-d file:///storage/emulated/0/Download/system_raw.gz \
--el KEY_SYSTEM_SIZE $(du -b system_raw.img|cut -f1) \
--el KEY_USERDATA_SIZE 8589934592
what would be number for 20GB size in this command? --el KEY_USERDATA_SIZE 8589934592 how i can write it correctly?
i have enough space to assign big userdata partition.

Nice work man. Surely makes life easier for many, but in my case:
I followed all of the steps. After the GSI installation i tapped on reboot on the notification field and it rebooted into fastboot. I can not enter the GSI aswell as the recovery. Only fastboot and MIUI ROM
I installed MIUI13 from official sources via ./flash_all.sh inside the MIUI13 Recovery folder some days ago. I've done this because i think i soft bricked my device or messed with the partitions before, because i tried to flash a system image directly to the 'super' partition, becasue no fastbootd.

thx mate,
asuming you are trying to do this on Note 8 2021
ensure that you have your bootloader unlocked and your original rom is NOT rooted. You can also before you do anything with GSI custom releases test official GSI which should be available to you via DSU (connect phone via wifi not data services)
Recovery is not supported for Note 8 2021 thats why i havent mess with it despite i would love to have it. Also in my case - recovery was not needed to load unofficial GSI (just pc with adb drivers and sdk platform tools latest version).
fastbootd is not required in this case either
in some cases modified vbmeta.img is required to make it work.
if you somehow soft-bricked your device try https://www.xiaomitool.com/V2/ that should help you recover back to normal state.

many thanks for your reply mate,
i managed to flash miui12.5 again with flah_all.sh with official sources fastboot ROM via terminal. now i have recovery again. my computer has the latest adb tools installed.
i tried your dsu loader method on miui12.5 again but sadly it says "installation failed". on miui13 it said "installation success" but could not boot into it. I'm a little bit confused rn lol. i tried the phh's AOSP arm64 AB vanilla and phh's AOSP arm64 AB VNDKlite vanilla
and yes, i have the 2021 biloba version of the note 8

After seeing your video I understand that you was able to fix your initial problem:
"The issue is when i root the phone. (classic boot.img extraction from stock rom, modification of the boot.img within Magisk aplication, than flash modified boot.img via adb tools)

It seem that you have been able to fix that problem, havent you? Have you had any problem using rooted GSI lineage? I am very insterested in rooting my phone using a GSI rom. I am going to follow your tutorial.
thanks
Since I am in mainland China, after seven days waiting, I unlocked my k40s finally.
Get ROM from xiaomi.eu link to thread of stable release is https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/miui-13-stable-release.64441/
Download in sourceforge: https://sourceforge.net/projects/xi...files/xiaomi.eu/MIUI-STABLE-RELEASES/MIUIv13/

2. xiaomi.eu_multi_MUNCH_V13.0.10.0.SLMCNXM_v13-12.zip
### First one:
I use script inner zip to flash, success.
### The second one:
At first I can't boot from twrp.img after search by Google I found out that I run fastboot command in fastbootd env.
There is a ref: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/fastboot-error-no-such-file.4483677/
I boot to fastboot (Not fastbootD) by command
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
And I can boot the twrp and flash the second rom.
The guide of flash second rom is
Code:
1. push rom to sdcard
2. adb reboot bootloader
3. fastboot boot twrp.img
4. Install rom in TWRP
5. Clear data & format
Update
This guide is for MIUI13 and maybe there's something different of current MIUI14 ROM.
Latest TWRP https://dl.akr-developers.com/?dir=skkk/TWRP/A12/v6.3_A12
BOOT VERSION A12
Installation:
Phone in fastboot mode
Cmd:
fastboot boot twrp.img
Power shell
./fastboot boot twrp.img
then in Twrp go to Advanced -> flash current TWRP
Reboot TWRP
hello there...
i am arsh from india. i have unlocked the bootloader of my poco f4 only to flash eu rom. i have unlocked, installed twrp and then i flashed eu rom zip file. In the last step when i try to do format data, i got an error unable to mount system and it was unsuccessful. So without rebooting to system i again rebooted to twrp to perform format data and again same error appeared. later i chaged boot slot from a to b and then performed format data and then it says "no os installed". So i changed slot again to a and then i booted to system and i am able to boot into eu rom.
My Question did i perform the flash correct???
I noticed when i m using eu rom battery is draining faster than global rom...what is your opinion??

The rom you flashed is not the latest.xiaomi.eu_multi_MUNCH_V14.0.5.0.TLMCNXM_v14-13.zip
to update you must update the twrp from A12 to A13 and use the OTA.
This rom is hybrid, which means you can update it with a pc and fastboot using the update.bat script included in the extracted zip folder.
If you haven't installed all your apps, use the First install .bat file.
The procedure for a first installation with TWRP is as follows:
Twrp/format data type yes reboot Twrp(if errors ,reds lines ,start again by restarting on the Twrp at each try.
Then sideload the rom or use OTG.
Errors remaining at the end of the flash, ignore them.
Delete the lock screen security before all opérations.

1. imo the battery backup with eu rom is terrible compared to global stable rom. whats your view about that??
2. Are there any heating issues with eu rom 14 ?
3. can we revert to stock rom and lock bootloader?

Not having this device, I cannot answer the first 2 questions precisely but on my 12 pro(Xiaomi Eu rom) the switch to A13 was beneficial for both.(Have you just updated? Give the system time to optimize itself).
3/Use miflash (if you have an F4 and not a K40s).
