I just got my redmi 3s and noticed that officially the MIUI 8 version is still a "develoer rom".
Does it works well? any performance or important battery life issues that makes it better to wait for a more polished rom for my 3s?
Thanks!
I tried it a few weeks ago - Could not get google services working so reverted to the 7.x stable build.
Downloading MIUI8 now though
it has some new features
if it's better or worse (i have 3 , not 3s) i don't know , but i don't have a reason to go back to 7 (i didn't notice any problem yet)
Not stable yet but it have great feature, maybe a little bit more drain on battery but with a 4100 mah, who cares??
Try it, myself i will not return to miui7
It is NOT Redmi 3S forum! PLEASE write in the right forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/t/xiaomi-redmi-3s
Hi, sorry if in wrong thread. I bought 3s prime for my son's Xmas present and wondering whether I will eventually receive an ota. Current miui version is Global 7.3 stable 7.3 .10.0.0 (MALCNDE ). I know some have 7.5 but mine says no updates available. Will I have to flash something different to enable ota or will I just receive it in good time ? Thanks
@timbohobbs You will need to flash official Global via MiFlash. Your version is modified by vendor.
Try global beta rom 6.9.1 (miui 8) with miflash beta and you will get ota
The dev update is going well, update every week and has a lot of features, current problem is blocked 4G LTE for some devices, but it could be done by root via TWRP

Move all of your data to sdcard, rom with android 8.1 or higher usually encrypted their data partititon after flashed, so you need to use sd card(as long your sd card is not encrypted and not formatted as internal) to flash from twrp or by sideload your rom via computer.
Keep backup your phone before flash, stay safe
I can be wrong so correct me if needed.
3 types of ROM, Indian ROM, Chinese ROM, Chinese Global ROM.
I bought Redmi Note 7 3/32 Indian Variant few days ago. It's saying that I have MIUI 10.2.7.0 Global Stable Version (PFGINXM). Is it possible to use Chinese ROM or Global ROM on this device? I know I have to unlock bootloader first, but answering my question will help me enough.
Yes you can!
hey guys i own a redmi k20 and it was stuck in bootloop so i flashed the rom through miflash but after that my phones name changed from redmi k20 to mi9t did i messed something up or it doesnt matter
Same Problem
I also did the exact same thing and now I am worried that will I be able to come back into its original form. I tried every single ROM available for Redmi K20 through all the steps but nothing happened. It would be very grateful if someone tells us what to do.
Please Help
If you flashed any Global ROM, that's the reason your device is now recognized as "Xiaomi Mi 9T".
Beware to NOT lock your bootloader... or your phone will be hard-bricked (because you have a china "Redmi K20" device).
I've had the exact same thing but in the other way (i had it 9t and got redmi k20), it doest matter if everything works as for me i had no problems with it
Here's some things that may help
Make sure that you have unlocked bootloader and install twrp
Backup everything in twrp.
Install xiaomi.eu rom (it will transform to k20).
And voilà... And trust me you won't need the stock rom ?

Hopefully Xiaomi/Redmi will also release a reworked Version like for the K30 5G (MIUI V12.1.6.0) ( https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/picasso/ ) where they seem to fixed that issue? Took them a whole month (from January to February) for the K30 and they still release MIUI 12.1.x for other devices and are cripling google services. . .
Are they incrementally testing how much ****storm they will get if they really remove google services for MIUI 12.5 for all non global devices?

From the comments - Amadan (18 February, 2021): " I tested most of the models in a Mi Home store in China today. Basically, it seems that all China only models that don't come with Google services pre-installed no longer have access to downloading Google in the app store. They can't be downloaded on the k30 ultra, Redmi note 9 pro 5g, Redmi 10x, and Redmi k30s. I tried those today but they can on the mi10 and mi11 as they are models that are also available internationally and have been certified by Google. It seems that they didn't certify China only devices with Google "
Xiaomi blocks users from installing Google's GMS on its smartphones in China - Gizmochina

google translated from the announcement: "Some domestic models have pre-installed the GMS service framework, and these models will not be affected. For models that do not have a GMS framework pre-installed in the system, users will no longer be specifically supported to install the GMS framework by themselves. In the future, we will add more models of GMS systems pre-installed to meet your needs."

Am i interpreting it correctly that GMS is not preinstalled in MIUI 12.1.1 so GSF is not working. They removed GMS from already sold phones by OTA updates?
They now are testing how much needs/questions arise for already sold phones?

Been using QFJEUXM Android 9 and 10 all stock versions, absolutely never ever had or heard (go through the other threads) that Google Play Services dont work.
Also, since December, using MIUI 12.5/A11 Xiaomi eu weekly builds, with no problems (related to Google Play Services), neither me nor anyvody else reported ib rhe corresponding thread.
When stating such things, fully state the name/version of your firmware. Also, if you were playing with firmwares/ROMs (out of official stock and OTA), make sure to Factory reset
Edit:
Ok, I was talking about European and Global, not Chinese stock. Don't know if Chinese supports Google
However, Xiaomi.eu weekly and stable (I also used Xiaomi.eu Stable latest A10) are based on stock CN, and Google (Playstore, Play Services, apps) work out of the box
Exact Version name for Redmi K20 (CN) where it happend to me is
MIUI V12.1.1.0.RFJCNXM
It is a stock rom (china non global) without ever done any modding. So no unlocked bootloader or root available or other non stock rom installed.
Previous stock rom was i think MIUI V12.0.6.0.QFJCNXM with Android 10 which got OTA upgraded. At least up to the Android 10 (non global) Version it had functioning google services included which could be used after installing google play store.
Seems like it happend to other non global stock devices too while upgrading from Android 10 to Android 11 to a MIUI 12.1.x version
Here a thread about the CC9 Pro MIUI 12.1.3
https://www.reddit.com/r/Xiaomi/comments/kzd2f5
custom rom Xiaomi.eu seems to insert GAPPS even if they are not included in the rom
"Moreover, Chinese MIUI beta builds don’t really include any Google apps and services which the guys at Xiaomi.eu take care of as well"
MIUI 12.5 Xiaomi.eu update released for many Mi, Redmi & Poco devices
The MIUI 12.5 beta 21.3.3 update is now out and about for a bunch of global devices already, thanks to Xiaomi.eu community builds.

Oops, interesting, I was not aware of (the very recent) RFJCNXM 12.1.1:
Xiaomi Firmware Updater
The ultimate script that provides firmware packages for Xiaomi devices.
xiaomifirmwareupdater.com
Did you try Factory reset (Format Data in TWRP)
Btw, on Xiaomi.eu weekly (latest 21.3.3), MIUI 12.5/Android 11, based on CN, Google Play, Services, apps work out of the box
Btw, in Settings, About, does it say for you MIUI 12.1 or 12.5 (Android 11) and what is the Security Patch date?

Haven't made a factory reset yet. Currently making a backup of my data. But after reading the other links i am skeptical if a factory reset can get GSF working again. Maybe i'll try waiting 3-4 weeks to see if they release a new fixed version like for the K30 5G
In Settings All Specs
Android version: 11
Android security update: 2021-02-01
MIUI version: MIUI 12.1.1Stable 12.1.1.0 (RFJCNXM)
So it's like Indian MIUI, where it messed device to point where it was unusable.
Stick with stable a10 and research what they do to make a11 daily
Maybe switch to Xiaomi.eu weekly builds, MIUI 12.5/A11, Google out of the box
Already 6 or so releases since December, stable (I'm using for daily driver), tomorrow expecting new release
You can find a thread here on XDA with instructions (basically, flash the zip from TWRP, wipe Dalwik and Cache and first time when jumping from stock do FORMAT DATA - not just wipe)
Seems like i'll need to wait a month to get a functioning phone with GMS again. Have just seen that the current version MIUI V12.1.1.0.RFJCNXM got Rolled back https://mirom.ezbox.idv.tw/en/phone/davinci/roms-cn-stable/
Under the OTA updater the last changelog is also no longer available. Now it reads only "You don't have permissions to access the update log. Make sure the account you signed in with has the required permissions."
Maybe they will have released a new version without broken GMS by then. At least it took them about a month to release new versions for
rolled back versions of https://mirom.ezbox.idv.tw/en/phone/cmi/roms-cn-stable/ and https://mirom.ezbox.idv.tw/en/phone/picasso/roms-cn-stable/

For Global and EEA stable i have found them at the history links which are just after the latest listed version (for example)

from https://mirom.ezbox.idv.tw/en/phone/davinci/

mirom.ezbox.idv.tw
EEA/(EU i think this is the same as EEA?)

mirom.ezbox.idv.tw
Another site i found is https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/davinci/. But it seems like that site does not factor in roll backs and has all versions mixed in one list.
I am still sitting on the rolled back MIUI 12.1.1 (CN) version.
Thanks. For EEA I forgot I had to try "eea", not "eeu"
