Does a global ROM for this phone exist?

Because according to my online seller it does.
Question roughly translates to: Which ROM? If I encounter any issues can you help to claim the warranty (to China)?
He answered "Global ROM. Yes I can help"
But the question now is: does a global official stable ROM even exist for this phone? Isn't it China-only?

I bought the MI 5s Plus 64 GB in China a few days ago. I can confirm you there is no Global ROM yet. However, the stock Chinese ROM has English as language. You can also install Google Play Store and uninstall any bloatware default apps.
There is an Unofficial EU ROM if you wish to try.

I got the Mi5s (not plus) last week and it shipped with miui 8 global rom including pretty much any language not just english and chinese!

Please note that the MIUI rom could be manipulated by the guy who installed it. Currently there is no official global rom from Xiaomi for the 5s. All the currently sold ones with Global ROM are unpacked by the seller and reinstalled with some MIUI rom, which could be manipulated. Also OTA updates won't work with those mobiles
I'm also waiting for an official global rom, it's just not sure yet if there will be one.

I bought this phone with chinese rom and I was going to flash global rom as soon as it is released. but I'm not planning to change the rom anymore. I have debloated it myself and I'm happy with it at the moment.

I have to admit, I'm pretty disappointed. I honestly didn't realize I wouldn't be getting official MIUI.
Is there any particular way for me to see if there is any harmful backdoor software installed? So far this "global ROM (8.6.10.0)" seems solid enough, all functions seem to work except that when I go into the updater and try to choose an install package it tells me to install file explorer first....
I'm downloading the stable, official Chinese ROM right now... Not sure if I'll install it or not though...

I got such a vendor "global" rom, tried to flash with official chinese zip, did not work -> verification problem.
unlocked bootloader, flashed twrp and xiaomi eu rom based on official chinesese developer rom..
Will wait for global rom as chinese rom is too much bloated..
If they launch it in india(hope so), global rom will exist, otherwise xiaomi eu forever...

So, you had success in unlocking BL and flashing twrp? Did you follow a guide? Do you have a link?

All good for me except fingerprint (may be due to plastic cover.. will try later after receiving my tempered glass)
I have an mi account which i used for unlocking..
You can create an account then use this link
http://en.miui.com/unlock/
Once they approve they will send a mail with link to download the unlocking software
You should install that, then run it and login in that..
You can unlock it there
install required tools- fastboot ... drivers.. (for me standard android sdk was sufficient...)
After installing those..
You should shutdown device completely then hold volume down and power button at same time to enter fastboot mode
Then connect mobile using cable to your pc
below command should list your device once connected...
fastboot devices
Download the twrp from link given here http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5s/development/recovery-twrp-3-0-2-0-t3480133
make sure that its for proper device (mine is mi5s not plus)
if it a zip extract the img file.. then type command
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
then to boot in to recovery
fastboot boot twrp.img
my twrp defaults to chinese so to change language refer video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOhR92EKD7A
download xiaomi eu for your device
from here https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/6-10-20.35693/
Then follow standard twrp flashing guidelines..
You can find it everywhere ( >>> Factory Reset >> Wipe select partitions >> install from internal memory if you already copied it there OR sideload using adb from pc)
PS: (I had formatted system partition as well without issues)
my back button was not working properly but after reboot it was ok..

Thank you very much [email protected] for the explanation.
I will try the procedure today evening when i'm home from work.
Update:
worked fine for me. Thank you very much!

Thanks for all the replies, but went ahead and bought the Note 4 instead. Camera is my only complaint against it, otherwise it's a really great first experience with Xiaomi!

I just bought 5s 128 GB in Malaysia which is directly import (not from official dealer) with Stable Global ROM 8.0.10.0.0 (MAGCNDH) Build MXB48T as per attached. There is no bloatware and quite stable.
Can anyone confirm it is a real global ROM from Xiaomi or a modified ROM?

The additional 0 at the end of the MIUI version and the CN in the MAGCNDH shows that it is a chinese ROM which was manipulated.
So you won't be able to update it, and I at least could not unlock the bootloader because the xiaomi tool did not recognize it as a xiaomi phone....
So I built me a deep flash cable and flashed chinese official ROM, unlocked it and flashed TWRP and xiaomi.eu ROM....

Any Guide for that? Or a video guide?

Check this here, source: http://en.miui.com/thread-390697-1-1.html
Here is what I did to get an official ROM instead of the malware infected 8.6.10.0:
At first I have to mention that using the EDL Method is very dangerous because you will probably brick your phone if it goes wrong.
If you are not sure about something better ask here before doing anything wrong. The phone should have a full battery and save all your files because the phone will be wiped during the proccess.
Step 1. Download the latest official MIUI Fastboot ROM for Mi 5s:
http://bigota.d.miui.com/V8.0.10.0....AGCNDH_20160805.0000.29_6.0_cn_49ab3a5120.tgz
(!!! Important - When flashing the ROM with the Xiaomi FlashTool in the step 3. you have browse into the /images Folder. - Browsing into the wrong folder and flashing wrong files will probably brick your phone !!!)
Step 2. Turn your phone into EDL Mode:
http://xiaomitips.com/guide/how-to-put-mi-5-into-edl-mode/
(Use Option #1 - Option #2 and #3 does not work)
Step 3. Use this Tutorial to flash the Fastboot ROM to your device. Use Method #3 , as Method #1 and #2 does not work anyway with the fake ROM 8.6.10.0.
http://xiaomitips.com/guide/how-to-flash-miui-8-fastboot-and-recovery-rom/
( Skip Step 4,5,6 because your phone is already in the EDL Mode)
This helped me out go get the official Chinese ROM 8.0.10.0. Out of this ROM you can use the MIUI Updater function in the phone to install any other official ROM for the Mi 5s.

There will never be a global ROM for this phone.
It's a China only device.

I still have a little hope that they might start to sell it in India, which typically means there will be a global rom. But so far nothing is announced, so at the moment there is no hope for an official and signed global rom.

Xiaomi announced that they will not sell it in India.
When Hugo Barra says it wont be sold in India, then it wont be sold in India.

My Mi 5s has the same ROM and it works flawlessly. Benchmark results are far ahead compering to those from reviews on YouTube. I was able to unlock bootloader in first try, no problem. If you use Windows 10 make sure to load proper drivers. I don't believe that any reseller is able to compile such perfectly working ROM. It must be Xiaomi that stay behind this, but this is what I believe. As you sad all languages are there and even some you don't find in official global ROM. I will keep this one until official global I released. Be patient.

Fake seller rom

Hi guys. My Mi 5s Plus has a fake rom MIUI 8.0.8.0.0 Global Stable. I discovered that such version doesn't really excit. So my question is what should I do to have the official global stable version and have OTA updates, should I just download it from Xiaomi's website and install it or will I still don't have OTA updates?
Also, does sound come out from the both sides of the grill on the bottom or only from the right one on your Mi 5s Plus?
Thanks and happy new year to everyone

Download Rom from Official site, put it on Your Phone to folder "downloaded_rom", if U dont have it just create it and use updater in settings, it should work

Hi pero93,
Would you please share result later, whether success or any issue.
Thanks

That worked for me without any issues. About the sound speaker - 5s only has one. The holes on the left are for the mic.

Same workaround on Mi5S?

is that same procedure applicable for the 5S as well?

Hi,
Unfortunately, not working for me.
I think this needs the updater to have the 3 dots in the upper right corner to select the updater file.
I do not have those 3 dots
Any other suggestion ?

[EDIT : the three dots disappeared because I switched DPI... I restored DPI and they came back. Did as was said here and... there I go : official ROM now ]

Possibility to use EDL to downgrade

Hello, i see that this device is also listed for anti rollback which you can't flash back to Global Beta via mi flash without bricking. Now.. my question is... Is it possible to use EDL with authorization to go back to Oreo firmware from Android Pie since that flash mode has higher privilege.
Reason why i ask is because like this device, I have a Mi Max 3 which also is listed for antirollback and both Android Pie and Oreo has ARB 4.

You can flash via fastboot as well with no issues, as both Oreo and pie fw are arb4

Uh, nono, I bricked when i went back to beta. So i had someone help me to flash from Global to Beta using EDL by remote. That is why i asked, either way i have beta now.

Reason i ask this question is because you guys have anti-rollback.. and you guys have more Roms than Mi Max 3. We have anti 4 now and flashing TWRP is not working. Yet your device and Mi8 that is on the anti-rollback list too along with Mi Max 3...are able to have a lot more Roms and working TWRP. I ask Mi8 forum same question because they have been advancing as well.

The best way is to flash the stock with miflash. (Remember to select the checkbox at the bottom right on clean-all, do not flash with clean and lock otherwise lock the bootloader. To some he sent the phone in brick just this forgetfulness) I strongly advise against using twrp to flash the stock!

I am using xiaomi.eu at the moment.
So, xiaomi.eu is a custom rom that takes Chinese stock as a basis and adapts it to global use, like adding Google services, translations for many languages and removing all Chinese apps. I prefer it to the global stock because being based on the chinese stock it has the fastest updates and functions that xiaomi puts only in the chinese rom. Also because the global roms is developed by poco So not directly from xiaomi and it is not said that they include all the features that xiaomi includes on the Chinese stock.

The first is Android 12 weekly beta and can only be flashed via fastboot with the appropriate file that is inside the package.
The high is stable android 11 and can only be flashed via twrp.
I don't know if it works if the flashi from crdroid, I have not tried, it might or might not, at most if it doesn't work you install the stock with miflash and the flashi from there ...

YES
But bootloader will remain unlocked.
If you want it locked, like virgin phone, you must use a called fastboot rom via MIFLASH tool.
Select the right rom version at XIAOMI ROm download site.

Flash it first without locking, boot your phone (you don't have to configure it, even you shouldn't because of incoming reset), and if all is good, flash it once again with locking bootloader.

1) Which Way have to choose for Flash - Miflash Software or Direct download and using Recovery Method - also heard even without bootloader unlock can flash ROM - Not sure it is working or not specially Mi11X
2) I read it but didn't find proper information regarding Indonesia Rom - Is there any Network Band issue could face in India, Performance, Camera
3) Which is the Correct way of Flash
4) Should Flash Region-specific Rom or Global Rom would be better
I must surely get an answer at least from someone

I hope this will help you

Thank you bonerserk for the reference link

First of all I'm not a pro, so do it with your own risk. But, I knew few things since I've changed my Rom back and forth using ID ROM, EU, CN, and many others Custom Rom.
In response of ur questions:
1 & 3. I recommend using Mi Flash Tool. Download the tool, and the required ROM (the FASTBOOT one, since you want to use the ID ROM, there's only 12.5.6 version for the FASTBOOT Rom) using the thread link provided by @bonerserk follow the instructions CAREFULLY.
2. Didn't know the answer.
4. It depends on ur needs. If you just want to remove the Chinese Bloatware, then the Global Rom is suitable since it has less Chinese bloatware.

Thanks, @the.ogeph for the response - After reading the Flashing method come to know Xiaomi implement Anti Rollback features in Some Model - also in Mi11X I didn't get a three-dot option (Additional Features) on Settings->About Phone - Where Some Model has this option - Now I am confused is Mi11X has implemented this features or not? If I Try and stuck due to Anti Rollback then there is no solution available as of now.
Which Device do you have? I didn't find any Mi11X owner who tried this

That's why I recommend you to use Miflash tool. You could bypass the ARB Protection by editing the (.bat) file line command. Just google it or watch tutorial on Yt.
Please follow the instruction really carefully. I've soft bricked my phone once because I skipped 1 step.

Unlocked bootloader Receive OTA ? or have to manually Push?

Can I flash EU ROM with Locked Bootloader using Miflash Official Tool? because I am waiting for 10+ days to unlock the bootloader response from Xiaomi

xiaomi.EU rom is a custom rom based on miui, so you need to unlock bootloader to install it and it didnt use miflash official tool to flash

But I have watched lots of videos where people change Xiaomi ROM with the different regions such as Global to EU, Indonesia, China with the locked bootloaders - for Only Mi11X not able to find any Source
