Help flashing global to china version - Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers

Can I flash global rom to my china version of xiaomi rn7? I have unlocked bootloader. Will I not get a bootloop phone?

You can flash but keep in mind that after flashing Global rom in your China variant Note 7, you can't lock bootloader again. If you do than your phone will automatically hard brick in a second.

I dont have plan to lock bootloader again. So it is okay to flash global?

No. You were directly told that locking the bootloader on your Chinese phone with global ROM would brick it. Can't you read?

"you can't lock bootloader again"
Do you understand this? Lol

Sorry to resurrect old thread ...
Do I HAVE TO lock bootloader after flashing ROM? Or I can keep it unlocked?
Just got RN7 with Chinese ROM and want to flash custom ROM.
Any advice?
Thanks

You have to keep it UNLOCKED if you flash a custom rom

I'm trying to unlock bootloader but something is not working... I downloaded Batch Unlock Tool, enabled OEM Unlocking and USB debugging.
But when I start Batch Unlock Tool and put phone in Fastboot - program doesn't see my phone... Is there a secret?
The only problem (what I see) - the phone gives me message "Find me service is not activated - can not receive SMS message. check SIM". But SIM is ok and I can send messages...
Or: what's the latest easiest way to switch from Chinese ROM to some custom ROM?
Thanks!
PS. Never mind! It was simply stupid USB3 port - plugged into normal one and everything worked!

You need an unlocked bootloader , and then use a custom recovery , eg. OrangeFox
Then download the china ROM.zip file for lavender , flash from recovery , then format data and reboot.

Unable to select OEM Unlock from menu

Hi everyone,
I've purchased a G935S while in Korea, and now that I'm home, it's time to start playing! Unfortunately, I'm stuck at square one - I'm not able to select OEM Unlock from the developer menu, as it's greyed out.
Any ideas?
Fingers crossed and I hope to hear some good news soon!

Check SKT carrier specific features in Settings, I've heard one of them blocks OEM unlock. Maybe something related to device loss I guess..
Still no luck.. I tried to follow the tutorial - crom won't run (and the tutorial is actually for the Hong Kong model - not the Korean).
So frustrating!
Has anyone rooted a 935S?

Whats about a custom Rom? Flash it via Odin and you will have no need for unlock OEM!
Try out King Nougat-Rom, its very good for me working (without unlock OEM!)
Any Solution Please...
I have got a S7 edge(sm-g935s) as you guys and also my phone doesn't let me to turn on oem unlock feature.I have tried so many things now i'm so tired.
*I flashed combination file for this modle.
*I downgraded it to marshmallows.
Nothing works.Is there anyone have a solution please let me know.Thank you very much.:crying:
have you tried downloading rom with different csc for same model and flashing it with odin

Sm-g935s has only one csc.Because this phone is only sale in korea not the international version.

I have a 935S was also on SKT, but was factory unlocked. Sounds like it may be carrier locked, but you could always try to flash TWRP and see what happens. But don't necessarily listen to me, I don't remember if trying to flash TWRP on a locked device just fails or wrecks ****, it's been a while since I used a locked device

I have also 935s device but OTA update without turn on OEM unlock feature is the cause to this problem.I bought my phone from another one but he had already updated his phone to oreo without turn on OEM unlock in developer option.After updating OEM Unlock toggle grayed out.This cannot be fixed with simply flash twrp.It only displays "custom recovery is blocked by frp".It's automatically turn on frp lock when you restart your phone after flashing twrp or rom because of still our phone's bootloder is locked.
I don't know how to fix this.I am so frustrating with this matter.If anyone found a way to turn on oem unlock in developer option it is possible to unlock bootloder.

FRP and a locked bootloader are two different things. To get rid of FRP just remove your Google account from the phone.

I know how to get rid of FRP:laugh: but i said that it is turn on when restart after flashing custom recovery because of locked bootloder.There is no way to get rid of it.
Only way to solve this problem is to turn on oem unlock in developer option.

Have your tried oem unlock in fastboot mode? If that's no go then your only other recourse would be to contact either SKT or Samsung to get the bootloader unlock code

Yes, I have tried fastboot adb command to unlock bootloder but it fails because it cannot be done without turn on OEM Unlock in developer option.
I don't think samsung or skt could help with this case.I think they locked our bootloder with OTA Update.They won't help us except only we found a way to unlock our bootloders.

With a locked bootloader either Samsung or SKT would be able to give you the bootloader unlock code. That's how it works when you get a phone with a locked bootloader. Unless they do like Hauwai and ban it completely, which they have not.

help fingerprint sensor

So I installed the revolution mod ( nougat ) and my fingerprint sensor was not working so I installed the stock firmware and because there were no fingerprints saved on stock , I factory reseted the phone , then I installed the revolution rom again and it was working for few days but now it stopped working again ( sometimes it does not recognize it and sometimes it doesnt even vibrate Like i would not even have my finger on it )
To me that sounds like an hardware issue and therefore needs to be sent in for repair.
I don't think it's an hardware issue.. the ROM has some problem with some people, I suggest you to try stock ROM for a few days to verify if the problem is related to your device or the ROM.

To me it sounded he installed stock and it did not work there either.
Ofc if it works in stock it should be related to the custom ROM.

He restored stock only to see if there where some fingerprint registered and then he installed revolution ROM again if I am not wrong

Did you flash OEMinfo first?
Or did you use the new rollback methods?

Well if you are on a Nougat build, you cannot just flash a MM update.app
You either need to flash an OEMinfo file first (old method) or use the official Huawei rollback method (new method).
If you did none of that, that might be the reason why your phone does not boot.

You need to get that code it is your only option.
This can be done with the DC Unlocker but it will cost you a few bucks and you need to find a guide in here or somewhere else. Or you just figure it out yourself. I have never used it.
You can also try to get the code again by using the Huawei site but you need your IMEI and some other stuff. I guess some of it can be found on the packaging that your device came with...

I mean you might try to find a way to get the needed information with adb but I do not know how. Maybe a Google search can provide more info.
There are also several threads in here where people tried to recover the bootloader code from a bricked device.
Just make sure to SAVE it somewhere safe once you retrieve it

Yeah that is the big problem...
Normally you get it over the phone dialer but since you are in bootloop...
I don't know...
There are programs out there that generate the product ID but I have no clue if they work for this device.
Use the huawei site where you get the unlock code and you will find that the id is found by typing a code on the phone dialer.... there you will find what to type on the phone.

hold power plus volume down with the phone hooked to the PC to enter the bootloader
from the bootloader you can use fastboot boot recovery twrp.img
from twrp you can flash a stock rom

Sprint A205U Flash Firmware To MetroPCS

I have a Sprint A20 that hasnt been sim activated and unable to locate OEM unlock. I have tried to flash the MetroPCS firmware on to this phone but no matter what i flash, the Sprint firmware is still installed after reboot. I receive no errors during flashing and everything succeeds, but no sign of the flashed firmware upon reboot. Any Ideas? Thank you.

You can't unlock the bootloader of A205U, that's why you can't see then OEM Unlock on dev. options.

Im not looking to root though and i dont even want to use any custom rom or any of that. When i flash metropcs successfully, i just want it to stick when the phone boots, instead of Sprint firmware magically re appearing. If its a successful flash with official firmware, then why wont the Sprint firmware go away / be overwritten, especially when it is a successful flash. Maybe i am wrong, but from what i remember, even when bootloader is locked, you are still allowed to flash official firmware, or am i wrong?

Can't install MIUI by fastboot

Hello, I was trying to install MIUI 10 for some reasons, well I tried to install using miflash but when i was almost getting it, there was an error and now the phone is in infinite loop when starting, showing the redmi logo and the black screen, I can access the fastboot but using it in miflash I can't anymore recognize in the software, I use windows 10 and when i click refresh on the miflash, it is as if the device had been disconnected from the computer.
I also tried to use the linux tool, using linux mint 19 but in all the ROMs I tried, the error "missmatching image and device" appeared every time :crying:
How long is th folder name? Right rom?
Do you have unlocked or locked bootloader ?? Get your stock rom ,fastboot rom, chose the right rom, unzip , open the unzipped file of the ROM ,copy all the files in there and past them in the file of Xiaomi drivers , than put your phone in fastboot mode and connect it with USB cable, double click on the " flash_all ", done. If the process will not run immediately, wipe all data and try again !!!

It's locked bootloader again? So you need to bring it to a service or have to open the back panel and try flash in EDL mode.

Sorry german user
Hello, sorry for the delay, I managed to install MIUI, I found that the version of my phone is Chinese, after trying so much I finally did, however when accessing the system, my wifi or sim reader do not work, so I can't even log in with my mi account. I do not know why
I still don't have the bootloader
Make a factory reset, but are you sure that the bootloader is locked ?? Because SIM cards usually have this problem if you have another rom from different region.

I already tried doing factory reset, but the problem persists. Yes, my bootloader is locked, I'm flashing through edl, and only china rom works, the global one appears that "this miui version can't be installed on this device" and goes into bootloop

Your phone is only for chinese market. So if you want to use global rom, you must install china rom first, then unlock bootloader again (wait few days) and then install global rom (with unlock bootloader).
