Hi guys. I tried flashing Global stable rom via twrp on my note 5 ai china rom. But when I get to the setup part. The only available region to choose from is china and when i choose china my phone goes into a bootloop. Can anyone help me with this? Im using pixel experience rom now if that helps. :crying:

China to global

Hi, I was hoping to get some help switching from my current China rom to the global.
Does it matter what version of the China rom I have in order to install the global rom in place of it?
I have an mi 6 China rom updated to the latest miui 10.3 and running Android 8.0.
Thanks heaps.

Unlock bootloader and use xiaomi tool, its almost idiot-proof utility. Select fastboot flash method, flash in recovery didn't provide full conversion to global.

EU rom on my chinese variant currently running on global redmi note 8 pro

So my redmi note 8 pro was a Chinese variant on which I installed the global rom and now I want to switch to EU rom. Can I install the EU rom through MI flash tool just how I flashed global rom? Or does EU rom require custom recovery?

They said EU rom usually they talk about custom Miui rom, not EU global one. And EU custom don't support this device long time ago. EU Global one is nearly same with Global rom. So i suggest you should use Indo rom or India rom (No NFC) and Miui mod by Santoshhh for Gapps and Miui dialer. You can also use China, China beta and flash Gapps. And if you dont need Miui features, you can flash other custom roms for Battery backup or Performance or Customization.

And from which global version did you come from?
Thanks again

Tried to flash V13.0.2.0.SKHIDXM over V13.0.7.0.SKHEUXM but phone stucks on fastboot..
I think it's a anti rollback issue...
Does anyone have a suggestion on how to achieve the "migration" from latest EEA rom to indonesian rom ?

remove the check anti version from the bat file you are using
For some people, the solution was to copy the rom's folder to the miflashtool's folder and making sure the folder doesnt contain spaces
try this before removing the anti check lines

Question Locking bootloader on a different global region rom?

Hi,
I have the global variant of the xiaomi 13 pro. And want to unlock the bootloader to put a global EEA rom on to it.
Can I relock the bootloader in the global EEA? Or should I have it unlocked?
What is here the golden rule of thumb to follow?

If you have a global version (model 2201122G)
you can lock the bootloader.
Global is better than EEA.

Yes I have that model.
So if I running the global version ROM, flash it to the global EEA, I can safely turn the bootloader on lock?

There are only two models Global and CN.
The global version is common for all roms except CN.

Waaauw I dindt know this!
So recap/summirized:
If you have a Global version (G), and running a Global ROM and unlock the bootloader and going to Global -> EEA OR -> INDIA OR-> Turkey ROM , I can relock the bootloader right?
Except, If you have a CN (China) version , going to Global -> Global OR -> EEA OR -> INDIA OR --> Turkey , Dont lock the the bootloader, only lock the bootloader on the CN ROM/Device,
There is another Devp. ROM Xiaomi.EU and there you can relock the bootloader after you flashed to this?
Correct me if I'm wrong.
Exact except
"There is another Devp. ROM Xiaomi.EU and there you can relock the bootloader after you flashed to this?"
No need to re lock the bootloader (brick) or to root with a Xiaomi EU rom; the play store is certified and the banking apps work.

I choose Global ROM, If there is any update for the camera optimisation, it will comes first after the China ROM, then to the GLOBAL ROM.
But EEA has less adds.

Hi,
It seems to me that only 2 models exist:
Global 2210132G (with rom from different regions) CN 2210132C (only Chinese rom).
Check version: My phone/Detail information/Model.
Global devices - you must not lock the bootloader with a Chinese ROM or a custom ROM
Chinese devices - you must not lock the bootloader with Global ROM or custom ROM.
