It's very simply. I changed my Nexus 5 because security patch wasn't update. And now, my smartphone is not update again, while a lot of phones are very very supported. I choose Xiaomi because release a lot of update and it take care of his smartphones, but this is not happening with Mi 5s. Last update was released in December. I thinks is not too strange if i'm feeling a bit messed around. They promise this update from some months

Imagine:
- You buy phone in December 2016.
- You receive Global ROM about that time, you feel happy.
- You see every month China users get new stable versions, you don't.
- Around February you lost opportunity to unlock bootloader, because you need MIUI 8.1 or above. Your ROM from December is 8.0.
- Month ago Xiaomi release Global 8.2, everybody was happy, they can unlock bootloader, but after a week ROM is deleted from Download section on official site and from OTA update.
- Week ago Xiaomi promise give you first global dev release. Yay we will be able again to unlock bootloader. And they have delay...
epilogue
- Xiaomi start release closed beta Android 7 builds for mi5s. History show us that this model for Xiaomi is ************. Global version is... I have no words.
I know that there are ways to unlock bootloader etc. But official way right now don't work for Global Stable users. This phone have almost a year and stlii no working official solution.

There are so many devices from Mi, they can't work normally. And you can almost always find 2 devices from Mi with same parameters

According to the flashing guide given with the link, you can. Just have to download the file and put it inside the updater folder.

About 2 weeks and coming out ! I testing the 7.5.15 android 7.0 global beta build and it's much fast than miui 8.3 6.0.1! New fonts it's very awesome !.
After rumors that this phone will get Android Oreo update in next few months, nothing comes real till now.
Even lineageOs have developed oreo system for other models but not sm-n920a .
What's wrong with this model ?

Locked bootloader and locked down kernel. Not to mention, our carrier has left us for dead hoping we will buy another phone on a Next plan enslaving us for another 24 to 30 months. We will not get anything more than the 7.0 (with the occasional security update) that we already have for the device now.

The kernel and bootloader are locked down, so no. There is no hope for AT&t branded Note 5's. They're not going to give us the kernel, and won't unlock the bootloader. Best bet is to get a different phone that's not AT&t proprietary, and not purchase anything proprietary from AT&t again in protest.
I know that I won't.

Well, seems like i will not update to that, it's the first version with antirollback protection if i'm not mistaken. I'll wait for lineage or modified xiaomi.eu without antirollback firmware.
Not this sh*t again.. min max 3 sets with official global rom has been out since like 2 weeks ago starting with HK..

Unfortunately in US we've NOT got any official store, and Xiaomi does not appear to be offering global ROM on the download site.

Official global version, ships from Texas, confirmed...
https://www.ebay.com/itm/2023983206...il&pgrp=main:email&e=op&mchn=em&s=ci&mail=sys
Here in Italy there are shops selling global rom (closed box with stickers and english text), like several online stores. I just don't understand why in some sites appears like the international global version isn't out yet.
For example this one, from India, a few hours ago:
https://indianexpress.com/article/t...launch-in-india-price-specifications-5361657/
The global version is a different hardware SKU. That has not launched anywhere yet AFAIK, and Xiaomi have not announced its availability.
When I asked a retailer about the likelihood of a Pro version and NFC / more bands, they said they weren't sure about whether the Pro would be released or not, but that they thought the global version of the Max 3 would have more bands, and possibly NFC too.

This is what I cant figure out, I've messaged a couple of sellers on Ali Express (Global Version) asking is the box factory sealed in cellophane? To which they mostly replied yes.
Which begs the question if its not the official, what ROM is the factory installing? Some kind of beta I guess...
someone at reddit said global model will out in october.
Hey good morning. My phone had arrived with the sticker intact, bootloader unlocked, and the fake Global ROM installed. I do not know how they managed to do that but I personally slit the Stricker the one that says do not accept if it is broken. However the device did not have original firmware

Did the box have label "Global Version" on the side?
The box didn't have Global version written on the side. I have returned the item because xiaomis policies changing.

I'm not from US, i'm writing from italy, i get my device from an online seller based in HK and until now i not see any OTA update for the global version.
The device is locked and i know because i've already tried to unlock the bootloader but i can't because i need to wait the 720 hours (the new stupid policy of xiaomi for the unlock).
ok. i am finally ready to order this next week....but confused with all the previous fake global versions....could some friendly person link me to a genuine proper global one please....i see one on honorbuy, but not sure how genuine it is...i like ordering from honorbuy via the eu warehouses, very fast delivery..

Honorbuy sends the real global version.
I know two people who received Mi Max 3 from HonorBuy with Global 9.6.7.0 pre-installed, locked bootloader, english box with a red "Global Version" sticker and european charger.

Got my Mi Max 3 from them a week ago and it was indeed the real global version (4gb/64gb)
hi . yesterday i delivered from a local store a 4/64 MIMAX3 with the global version stickers , english text , eu charger , with 9.6.7.0 ROM , LOCKED (i unlock the device throught MIUI unlock tool in a couple of minutes) . BEFORE i open the package i check XIAOMI Product Authentication if my MIMAX 3 is China or Global version. After i double check that i have an original GLOBAL version i unbox the phone. The last global rom is 9.6.7.0 . I think that in a few days XIAOMI rools out and the Fastboot Global Rom .
Now i have an ORIGINAL OFICIALLY UNLOCKED GLOBAL version of MIMAX3 ))))))))))))
Hi, I bought Mi Max 3 with this Fake ROM V9.6.6.0.(OEDMIFD) and unlocked bootloader.
Is there any tutorial to flash chinese and then xiaomi.eu ROMS?
Is there a procedure to relock and unlock bootloader safely? it worth the effort and the wait of 720 hours?
I am thinking on flashing LineageOS when avaliable so i need the partitions and all things ok.
Thanks.

Something odd just happened
Ok, strange story to tell.Not expecting it on my phone.I'm running an unlocked 9.6.4.0 ..theoretical dodgy rom on my Chinese 128mb machine.It runs fine , i've had no problems with it...All of a sudden , just now, i got an official OTA update to 9.6.6.0. - the quote Xiaomi " Updates to improve speed and stability." Downloaded it ,fearing the worst and questioning my sanity in doing this.Anyways, I applied it , closed my Eyes and waiting for the reboot , visions of locking the device and going into a interminable boot loop , bricking the phone.Now pleasantly surprised as it's rebooted fine, seems to work correctly and more to the point.....it remains unlocked ! Just thought i'd let everybody know.
Does this mean the 9.6.4.0 was indeed not a dodgy rom in the first place ?
That's exactly what it means and some so called "experts" here still don't get it...
Your experience shows an important detail we wasn't sure about - no we know global rom is not restricted to global device version!
This week is a week of surprises.Spent just 24 hrs on 9.6.6.0 (see the Previous Post)...last night I got another OTA update from Xiaomi.It was the Official Miui 10 Global Rom (10.0.1.0 - OEDMIFH - Security patch 1/9/2018) .Again its working fine on my Chinese 128GB model....and again it remains unlocked.

Maybe because this is still in Beta stage.
The official stable version is still not released they sent out OTA update of the stable version to some devices for testing and after the feedback it will be officially sent out to all devices, so be careful that with the official release it might lock the bootloader.

About recovery, roms, aun unlock bootloader
Hi!
I want to buy this redmi note 8.
I have been using this huawei mate 9 since 2016. There are no roms for this huawei, and even unlock the bootloader is a pain in the ars (you can check the XDA threads)
And I want a phone wich I can install roms all the time, and probably will recieve roms from developers for a long long time.
Do you think this Xiaomi will never be as restricted as huawei?
My first phone was a xperia Z1, and is still recivieng lineage updates almost montly but mine falls dead a few years ago.
I have bought RN8 15 days ago, i have unlocked it and installed twrp already.

Yes you can buy redmi note 8(no not the pro as it has mediatek chipset and development has been mostly closed for pro). Development has already started for redmi note 8 and you can unlock bootloader after 1 week from buying this device.
