[Mi 9T] DRM Info - Widevine L1 with global stable - Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers

Hello everyone,
since the Xiaomi Mi 9T comes with L1 certification, could someone test if unlocking the bootloader breaks it please ?
The check must be done on the global stable rom (through the app "DRM info") otherwise we can't understand if it's ROM or BL related.
Thanks to everyone who will collaborate. :highfive:
EDIT 09/08/19: So guys, after searching a lot and tested some stuff I think I understood how Netflix works on our Mi 9T. The device with locked bl and MIUI global can search and install netflix from the play store and also it can play video max at 720p. Yes, 720p, I chatted with Netflix and they told me that they don't guarantee FULL HD but only HD. I know it's unfair but this is their thought.
In my case, I unlocked the BL, drm info says it's still L1 but I can't download and install anymore the official app from the play store. So in this case, if you have unlocked BL and you are still on MIUI Global, like me, you have two options:
1) Download the newer version from apkmirror, it has a cool layout but it can't play videos at 1080p
2) Install this old apk and have the 1080p support
I chosed the second one, I don't care about the "ugly" layout but I can finally enjoy Netflix at 1080p on our device. Hope this message can help you.
P.S.: sadly I can't test anything about bl unlocked and custom roms, I tried that apk on other unlocked phones but it gives errors.

I will reply here, when my phone is unlocked next week.
Is this the right app:

I think that you flashed the wrong global rom: V10.3.6.0.PFJMIXM, am I right? Actually the Mi 9T rom that has Widevine L1 enabled is the global "european" version: V10.3.7.0.PFJEUXM
I've found both the fastboot and the recovery zip, if you wanna try it out here's the links: (obviously I'm not responsable of anything that could go wrong with the flash)
fastboot:

The explanation is: if you unlock the bootloader and stay on global rom it won't break the Widevine L1 level

Thanks, will try, though I flashed Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_09.02.2018 after the rom flash

Ok, let us know then. I hope you'll get the L1

IMPORTANT UPDATE:
Yesterday I have unlocked the bootloader without flashing any twrp or custom rom (so I'm still on MIUI global) but nevertheless the Widevine L1 is officially gone and at the moment, the only way to have it back is to relock it. So IF YOU CARE about it don't unlock your bootloader. Cheers

I hv k20 and wanna switch to global rom...which one should i flash ,the chinese global rom or european global rom??

Unlocked bootloader and flashed magisk.
Widevine still L1
Device is Mi 9T (not k20), with EEAA ROM, the one that comes out of the box.

Yeah I can still see Widevine L1 but sadly the official Netflix app is not working anymore. Test it and you'll notice the same issue. So... f*** Xiaomi

You cant installl it from playstore but you can sideload it from apkmirrors and it works perfectly on HD. At least for me its working.
Make sure on magisk safetynet pass OK and add netflix app and google play and services on Magisk hide

You're right, I succesfully installed the app but sadly I tested the playback quality through "Test Patterns" on Netflix and the max resolution is 1280x720 :crying: Do you see instead 1920x1080 on the upper right corner?
I don't have Magisk since I can't keep the recovery on the phone. After a reboot it automatically restores the MIUI recovery. Could you please tell me how did you do it?

mmm 720p is already HD, better than 540p.
and about the recovery, well I just followed the instrucctions.
flash through fastboot and boot directly (power + vol up). Change to english and go to Advanced and disable (Auto reboot after OpenRecovery...)
I even installed the last miui 10.3.8 full package through twrp.
Anyway, I dont think you need Magisk to have HD, As long as it says HD on the netflix app, youre good to go.

I do not know what the differences.
Logically would be minimal, better to have the A I think, is generic and and all the rest in this based....

I have a C version and was able to intall a real root access with Kingo and than remove the unwanted apps with a good uninstall app.
Now I have almost non chineese signs, my battery lasts mutch longer and it feels more "my phone"
One problem to solve. I can't lock the screen. Probaly because the phonenumber isn't bound. There is no way to fill the number field with a + and my international number. So I can't get a code to bind.
Is ther somebody with the same problem?
Hey everyone. I have one strange and annoying problem:
I went running, so I turned on Endomondo and Rocket Player. I started new training and started running. After few minutes both apps stopped working(without any alerts or anything). I tried few times again with Endomondo and every time when I unlocked phone the app was like freshly started. I have no clue what to do now. Now I'm trying playing some music on rocket player - after few minutes app just stops again......
Oh, and if you shake your phone do you have a feeling that something is "clunking" inside?
I heard that the A version of rom got less crappy apps than U or C. In general if you want use this phone use version A and wait for I.
Hey guys,
got this device since yesterday and wanted to remove the chinese-bloatware. But if I deinstall them with TB, they just reappear after reboot. Isn't this possible with the last firmware (Flyme OS 4.5.3.2A)?
Thank you very much!
Hello everyone,
I did all the works in trying to root it (according to every available instruction available), and still no app (and I did try a lot) has root access. Basically, just the same as this guy:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gen...2-note-mini-root-failed-t3217530#post63159227
Has anyone encountered any such problems? Firmware is 4.5.3.1A, phone purchased off Pandawill.
Thanks in advance!

Thank you, this worked. Below is a short summary, in case anybody is interested.
First did an upgrade, all the settings and apps remained as they were, and the root worked. Well, Play Store had it's issues, which could have been solved. After, did a clean upgrade, and it still worked. So I guess that's the solution. Be wary that you have to use "Google Installer" in the Meizu "App Center" to install Google Play.
BUUUUUT. Now the mobile data services won't work. I did uninstall some System applications, but I stayed within those proposed by the OP in the first posts. Does anybody know where to go to solve this?
Thanks!

Aaaaaand, I made it all work out. Don't really know how - after quite a few APN settings, it finally worked. Even though I'm 99% sure I did the right settings the first time. Hell knows.
So, for any others - watch out over your APN settings after a clean install. You must use your carrier's defaults (found on their website). And maybe a bit of luck/voodoo? Dunno what I did wrong the first times.

Where to download International firmware?

I bought for my wife from Geekbuying, it has multi language, but looks like Chinese firmware, and no Google anything. Other website selling the same phone with International firmware and with Google services.
I hope an OTA, or a custom rom for this soon. Or someone can point me out to where that International firmware is.
Thanks,
Gran

Your rom is multilanguage as every other rom. Sadly Google play isn't working on any of that. There is no international firmware at the moment. The advertisings on the shops are false.
Hello
There is no international firmware for the Z17.
The vendors are putting custom ROMS with multilanguage with or without google services but they have a great inconvenience, you will not be able to receive updates by OTA.

Very disappointing. Such a great looking phone, and specs. Premium feel, way better looking than my Oneplus 5, and water resistant, nicer camera (although video at night time shooting was better with my Oneplus 5). It's nice to have both phone in hands and compare, fortunately for me I have no Jelly issue with the 5. Right now I have downloaded apk of certain droid apps she wants. I can't install Youtube with no Google, so I installed Opera browser and have her access Youtube that way.
Hoping the Nubia people will release Global/International ROM/Firmware soon, or some very capable XDA members here make a custom rom.
Nubia Z17 bought in Aliexpress, unofficial ROM, is a custom ROM with Google services and google store installed. Fake! Impossible to upgrade to not being the official ROM of Nubia. Open dispute in Aliexpress, I ordered with the original Chinese firmware and the seller stated that it would be so. Lie.

Hi, what's fake? Them mentioning that it comes with Google services pre-installed and functioning or that you'll not be able to do OTAs latter, since it's a custom ROM.
IMO it's more important to have a functioning Google framework for the time being, until an International/Global ROM is officially released. In a near future, I guess it will be possible to unlock easily the bootloader and install from the recovery whatever ROM you want, Global or, hopefully, mainstream custom ROMs from the wonderful developers here in xda.
Exactly, custom ROM, it is not possible to upgrade to the latest firmware that Nubia took out. For me Google services are not indispensable. When I buy an original Chinese mobile, I always ask that the ROM be the Chinese (Meizu, Xiaomi ...) Problem: System update does not appear, does not support SD, does not recognize OTG. That is, I have a good mobile full of bugs (wifi, button back, battery, performance that improves the first OTA) and for now with no possibility to install its original firmware. Disappointed.

Hi,
I do not understand...
When I bought the phone (~= 15 or 20 days ago), it was clearly mentioned ( the text was at the beginning the of detailed specifications) on the GeekBuying web page the Gaps are not available.
I'd a look today (that night ), this text is removed.
I suppose there is a new release ?
I sent an email to GeekBuying to have more information.
Best regards (from France)
There is NO official International Firmware for the Z17. The Z17 ist not meant to be sold outside China (any may never be). There ARE alot custom firmwares with GAPPS like Gearbest is selling.
You wan't to have smartphone, where everything is working out of the box? Don't buy a Z17, buy a Z11 or someother.

I can't install Youtube with no Google, so I installed Opera browser and have her access Youtube that way.
Hoping the Nubia people will release Global/International ROM/Firmware soon, or some very capable XDA members here make a custom rom.

Could you do a bit of a comparison review of your OnePlus and Z17?
I'm tossing up between Z17, Z17s & OnePlus 5 and would really appreciate your input on the differences between them since you own both models!
Hi Bunta126, have a look to the ROMS. If Oneplus has an international one, take it. For now, no international ROM for the Z17.

Xiaomi Mi Pad 2 has been EoL'd

https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/7-9-14.41552/
Latest version for Mi Pad 2 can be downloaded from here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=213123 (MIUI 9) for global* version or from MIUI http://en.miui.com/download-296.html (MIUI 8) for Chinese version.
*Mi pad 2 doesn't really have global version, .EU version comes with pre-installed google services and removed Chinese bloatware.
This is a bad news for Mi Pad 2 owners because they do not have any solid custom ROM support for their device, which is due to lack of propitiatory Intel Atom's source code. So even if developers tried hard to deliver custom ROM they simply cannot. So unlike Mi Pad 1 even if Xiaomi EoL'd the support in a similar way last week, they can still get custom ROMs and patch support as long as developers delivers them. But for Mi Pad 2 it is simply not possible.
Yes, we do. Thanks to livedten and multirom.me. I'm getting tired of redirecting people (https://multirom.me/read.php?tid=445&fid=54).
Livedten has done very well with his MIRU Mod. I suggest everyone who owns a Mi Pad 2 to flash the MIUI firmware and MIRU mod from Multirom.me
The reason why Xiaomi.eu has dropped support for Mi tablets can be found here "Sorry guys, we have no more free time to take care of tablets and debug them.. " (https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/is-the-mi-pad-3-is-still-being-updated.41551/#post-386099).
Furthermore, if you paid attention to what @tank0412 wrote, you would know that Lenovo has a Nougat update scheduled and that opens the door for Android N development for the Atom series. Lastly, if you really want Mi Pad 2 development, I suggest you donate a Mi Pad 2 to @KonstaT over at Modaco (http://www.modaco.com/forums/forum/445-other-devices/) - he's the brain behind all Atom custom rom development.

Dose it support OTA updates? Or has repo where I can download latest version of the ROM? I don't understand Russian language. Sorry.
And MIUI.com has also suspended maintaining Latte device.

If you understand how to use a translator, you'll navigate just fine. Follow the instructions in the link provided.
Just like Xiaomi.eu, OTA updates aren't supported, but I never had a dirty flash gone sour from neither Xiaomi.eu or Multirom.me. That is, of course, if you follow the instructions properly. Meaning firmware version must match MIRU Mod version in order for both to work. Livedten hasn't updated MIRU Mod since 3/9-2017, so currently the two don't match. I'm sure it'll only be a matter of time before the two are aligned again and we can enjoy MIUI 9 development on Mi Pad 2.
Please provide an official link stating that MIUI 9 development has been suspended. Either way, I'm very satisfied with the performance of my Mi Pad 2 using MIRU mod. Though I am curious to see, if Lenovo releases an Android N update as scheduled and if that could potentially help spark the development of custom roms and sort some of the current issues

.EU rom is far better than Chinese ROM. I haven't tried Russian roms because I cannot read it and google doesn't do justice on translation. I got to the yandex link, but there are so many stuffs in there. Like what do I install? If you look at the OP, I have linked the latest link for .EU ROM, which Is what I am using now. It surely is faster than MIUI 8. But sadly it has been EoL'd as you can see. They are not going to maintain it any longer.
And officially they have said MIUI 9 will be last MIUI update for MiPad2, somewhere. Cant find link, look it for yourself.

I asked you for a link, because I couldn't find any information confirming Xiaomi will stop releasing more updates for Mi Pad 2. Spreading fake news is never good. Mi Pad 2 hasn't been EOL'd. Only by Xiaomi.eu, but not by others.
Livedten actually points out that it doesn't matter if you use Xiaomi.eu, Multirom.me, etc. MIRU mod should be compatible with all of them.
multirom_MIPAD2_7.9.14_v5.1_b10.zip can be found here https://multirom.me/index.php?m=app&a=view&id=11&app=roms
A MIRU Mod version that matches 7.9.14_v5.1_b10 hasn't been uploaded, so you'll have to install MIRU Mod.

Make a backup first. Just in case. As can be read in the 'ИЗМЕНЕНИЯ_MIRU_universal.docx' document
"Mod (and its idea) is completely reassembled, should work on any firmware , multirom . me , xiaomi . eu , miui . su , en . miui . com ... and so on. in any case, the key operating time is on the firmware from the multirom . me ." This excerpt was translated using Google Translate.

Probably, yeah. But beware, you might have to download the firmware zip many times, if you decide to use the MIUI 9 firmware from multirom.me, always run 'test archive' with e.g. 7zip. If no errors show, you're ready to flash, if errors show, you have to re-download. I think it's because of a server issue. I use Ninja Download Manager to succesfully download the .zip. MIRU mod downloads perfectly, since it's hosted elsewhere.
After a few tests I managed to flash MIUI9 with MIRU Mod. You must flash both multirom_MIPAD2_7.9.14_v5.1_b10.zip + MIRU_mod_16.09.2017_для_MIPAD2_UNIVERSAL.zip at the same time in order to get it to work.
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634797955
is there any working download link for the latest multirom and miru mod package?
cant find it anywhere anymore.
i found a yandex folder "MIUI_9_BACKUP" containing:
MI_mod_08.02.2018_для_MIPAD2_UNIVERSAL.zip with 144.2MB
MIRU_mod_16.09.2017_для_MIPAD2_UNIVERSAL.zip with 336.2MB
But without any instructions or anything and dont know what to do with it
So... I had the Mi pad 2 laying in my house running on MIUI 9 and one day I got curious and tried to unlock its bootloader.
I didn't remember my password and the recovery phone no. is discontinued now. and I couldn't change it or sign out.
So like an idiot, I factory reset it. And now it's asking for a password for the last mi id.
can anyone help me? Will and edl flash do the work?

You can install X00T ROMs/Recoveries on X00TD/X00TDB.
The difference between these three are:
X00T - Global variant of Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1
X00TD - Indian variant
X00TDB - 4/6GB Global variant
X00TDA - 3GB Indian Variant
However, custom ROMs/Kernel gives you freedom and not keep you restricted specifically to flash a certain ROM/kernel to a certain device model.

Interesting, I couldn't find absolutely any Information on that matter, do you also have experience on installing TWRP Recovery on X00TDB?
*UPDATE: I solved it by disconnecting the phone, exexuting the bootloader flash command and after getting "waiting for device" plug the phone back in the computer.

Why the Corvus Kernel, isn't the Phoenix one better?
Edit*: I mean how to install this one? First the standard Phoenix and then the Corvus Kernel as an Additional zip on TWRP or what? - Because Corvus Kernel alone is only 12MB

---> Corvus Kernel is one of my favorite custom kernels out there, It provides a great battery backup with overclocked CPU and GPU frequencies,(Its just my preferences but you can try other custom kernels out there with your favorite custom roms)
--> Corvus is just a custom kernel modified for Zenfone Max Pro M1, its not a full rom so don't try to flashed it without a rom installed.
--> Did encounter Status Error 7 before on Lineage OS, but I just try other custom roms. Modifying something that is out of your comfort zone is not advisable but if you want to do it, go ahead (Fortune favours the bold)

Your response is very appreciated, thank you for that, but I found an "almost" perfect solution for this problem:
I used this guide:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9IH6WgnjwMk
Positives:
- This method worked for me and I was able to install my Lineage OS ROM (Should work with other OS too, but I haven't tested it) and it is operating flawlessly so far.
Negatives:
- Even though my ASUS Modell is originally a X00TDB, since the Install of LOS somehow softwarewise it turned into a X00TD(This was the only Modell supported by official LOS), which in itself is not a big deal in my Opinion.
- ...probably because of this reason, I cannot install Updates from the integrated LOS Updater, I guess I have to always install manually, but last time I tried the same method like shown in the Video, updating manually did not work for me, maybe if I format the Phone and do a clean install it might work, but I have an Android 9 at the moment and it is kind of bothering for me to delete my whole data (+200GB) now, so I will probably try again, when I see fit.

[REVIEW] Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite 5G Xiaomi.eu ROM

Last month I got my Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite 5G(European Version). I was a bit disappointed with the battery life and also not being able to record phone calls. Soon I found out that Xiaomi with global roms/EEA roms don't come with call recording feature anymore. I wanted to have recording functionalities without Rooting the phone, so decided to unlock the boot loader and flash a custom rom. Technically Rooting is just a step away after unlocking the boot-loader, but I did not root my phone.
After unlocking the boot loader i tried flashing(fastboot method) 3 different ROMS and got following result:
Installed Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G ROM which is a China based ROM. It installed fine no issue but the camera didn't work(Camera couldn't focus). It wasn't unexpected as Mi 10T Lite 5G and Note 9 Pro 5G's camera systems are different; though I took a chance to see if it works as they both have same gauguin named ROMS.
Tried installing the global version ROM of Mi 10T Lite 5G but installation kept failing. Can't remember the exact error code but I could not install the global version.
Finally, Installed the Xiaomi.eu ROM for Mi 10T Lite 5G everything is working well so far and here is what I found:
Downloaded the ROM from Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite 5G Custom ROM(Xiaomi.eu)
The ROM feels much faster than the stock ROM. It is slightly updated than the stock ROM as it is based on the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G Chinese ROM which has MIUI 12.0.7

}
And Call recording works as it has MIUI dialer and Messaging App.
Battery performance is MUCH better than the stock ROM as it does not have any ads or any bloatware. Moreover I also got rid of other apps that I don't need through using Xiaomi ADB Fastboot Tool
Slightly makeover in Security App
Overall, I am very happy with this Xiaomi.eu ROM for Mi 10T Lite 5G. The phone feels much smoother and faster. Also I don't get to see annoying ads (though you can disable ads in Stock ROM by turning of Recommendation/MSI) and reduced bloatware has definite effect on improved battery life. ​
Thanks for the report/review. Does this ROM support encryption? It can be viewed for example in "Settings -> Passwords & security -> Privacy -> Encryption & credentials -> Encrypt phone".

Rock stable, not so bloated.

I tried and camera didn't work. Xiaomi.eu ROM is without any bloatwares. Moreover I got rid of many Xiaomi apps without roots.
Thinking on trying Xiaomi.eu (link on first post).
Anything I should be aware of and will I loose all my settings when I flash it via fastboot?
Thank you.

Yes it will wipe off your phone. Make sure to take back up first. Apart from that, there aren't anything that you need be aware of.
And anytime you update the rom it will do that? Wip off the phone, I mean.

No, it depends on ROM. For example, an update ROM for Xiaomi.eu ROM patches only the updates without data loss.
Thanks for your kind replies .

Last month I got my Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite 5G(European Version). I was a bit disappointed with the battery life and also not being able to record phone calls. Soon I found out that Xiaomi with global roms/EEA roms don't come with call recording feature anymore. I wanted to have recording functionalities without Rooting the phone, so decided to unlock the boot loader and flash a custom rom. Technically Rooting is just a step away after unlocking the boot-loader, but I did not root my phone.
After unlocking the boot loader i tried flashing(fastboot method) 3 different ROMS and got following result:
Installed Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G ROM which is a China based ROM. It installed fine no issue but the camera didn't work(Camera couldn't focus). It wasn't unexpected as Mi 10T Lite 5G and Note 9 Pro 5G's camera systems are different; though I took a chance to see if it works as they both have same gauguin named ROMS.
Tried installing the global version ROM of Mi 10T Lite 5G but installation kept failing. Can't remember the exact error code but I could not install the global version.
Finally, Installed the Xiaomi.eu ROM for Mi 10T Lite 5G everything is working well so far and here is what I found:
Downloaded the ROM from Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite 5G Custom ROM(Xiaomi.eu)
The ROM feels much faster than the stock ROM. It is slightly updated than the stock ROM as it is based on the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G Chinese ROM which has MIUI 12.0.7

And Call recording works as it has MIUI dialer and Messaging App.

Battery performance is MUCH better than the stock ROM as it does not have any ads or any bloatware. Moreover I also got rid of other apps that I don't need through using Xiaomi ADB Fastboot Tool

Slightly makeover in Security App

Overall, I am very happy with this Xiaomi.eu ROM for Mi 10T Lite 5G. The phone feels much smoother and faster. Also I don't get to see annoying ads (though you can disable ads in Stock ROM by turning of Recommendation/MSI) and reduced bloatware has definite effect on improved battery life. ​

Also I have noticed that the quick settings layout is not being saved. It resets after reboot. And it is not Google Play Store certified. Should be fixed after Xiaomi will release the next stable update.

Here are some institution that people interested in flashing Xiaomi.eu ROM can follow:
Bootloader has to be unlocked first. Without it custom ROM can't be flashed. Unlocking bootloader will void the warranty.
Refer to Xiaomi.eu flashing guidelines. Simply visit Xiaomi.eu and there are bunch of useful information on "How to" section.
Once unlocked, download the compatible ROM for your device in your computer. For this review I downloaded fastboot ROM from the link below: https://sourceforge.net/projects/xi...12.0.7.0.QJSCNXM_v12-10-fastboot.zip/download
You will need Xiaomi flash tool to flash the ROM. This process will remove all data from your phone.
I suggest watching some YouTube tutorial on how to flash Xiaomi fastboot ROM. For example here is one video
After flashing the phone successfully, it will restart and you will need to setup your phone from the scratch.
If all goes without any problems you hav now a fantastic custom ROM without any adds or bloatwares. You can get rid of even more apps by using some uninstall tools for Xiaomi. An useful video for this
Basically fastboot flashing isn't very complex process if you know what you are doing, but again there are always risk of bricking your device if steps are not followed correctly. However, to help you with that there are literally hundreds of tutorials/blogs on how to use fastboot method safely in your Xiaomi device. You can let me know if you have any questions related to flashing, I will try to answer.
Happy flashing!

Interesting point. I haven't faced this issue yet. Strange one! I will see if I can replicate the issue. One thing I noticed, gesture navigation does not have app swapping option by sliding the edge off the screen and hold it to switch to previous app.
I am on latest stable Miui 12 rom (Mi 10T, Xiaomi.eu). Netflix is not in Play Store, I downloaded another version. Gallery keeps crashing. All good apart from those.

Same here! Because it's not play protect certified
Surprisingly the first version that I installed before this latest update, was play protect certified.
