    How to install Magisk on Mi 11 Ultra WITH TWRP (MIUI 14)

    Bump for the same problem. Since /boot & /recovery are apparently now in the same partition, I can't flash an older (not useless) version of Magisk. If I flash Magisk, it overwrites the partition and TWRP is gone, and vice versa.

    Install xiaomi.eu ROM and root on Mi 11 Pro (China only phone)

    I'll do what I can, but it's been a while since I did it, so my memory of the procedure is not great. Two things I can tell you, the passcode in TWRP is the same one you set for your screen lock in Settings, and once you have TWRP installed, there's an option to install it permanently, this...

    Second-hand Mi 11 - is it worth to buy in 2022?

    You can get a new 12/256 Mi 11 Pro for around $600, other models for less, which for the performance is a bargain. 5000mah battery too, I rarely reach 50% by the end of the day.

    Install xiaomi.eu ROM and root on Mi 11 Pro (China only phone)

    This was a bit of a journey, and there seems to be some slight differences with the Mi 11 Pro that make it a little more tricky. Much of this has been covered elsewhere, so I'll just do an overview and detail the parts that caused me pain. There are two ways to do this, with or without TWRP...

    Can't flash TWRP

    I have a Mi 11 Pro, have successfully installed the fastboot version of the stable MIUI 13 build, but I can't get it to boot TWRP. I've tried several versions of TWRP, including [BOOT]3.6.2_12-Mi11Ultra-Mi11Pro_v6.3_A12-star-skkk_122188d9.img but I always get the unrecognized command boot...

    [HowTo] Install Recovery image

    Couple of hopefully quick questions: I just received Mi 11 Pro (Mars, I believe). It's a China device with global 13.0.2 Stable (SKAMIXM) installed (Android 12). It's an A/B device. First question, can I safely go from 13.0.2.0 to EU 13 Stable? I haven't found anything so far that indicates...

    Mi 9 SE associated to Mi account (unlock)

    To answer your question, only MIUI roms include the Mi Account feature.

    I broke my Mi 9SE, anyone can help me? :(

    The error message is because MIUI is logged in under a different account from the one you're trying to unlock with. You have to log in to MiFlash with the same account you added in the developer options.

    Have you ever changed your device's battery?

    I have to say that having a phone with a 4000mah battery makes a huge lifestyle difference. I wanted a Mi 9 until I saw the paltry battery size, and I'm glad I went to the trouble of buying a Pro instead. I don't even have to think about charging it during the day, no matter how much I use it...

    Have you ever changed your device's battery?

    Is anyone on the planet still using a phone that's 5 years old?

    Mi 9 wireless charging not working

    Don't know if this will help or not, but I bought the Xiaomi 55W wireless charger and couldn't get it to work on my Mi 9 Pro, the charger green light would flash but the phone wasn't charging. The solution was to use the Xiaomi high power mains adapter that came with the phone, none of my other...

    Mi 9 - Battery

    Not a problem for me either, but I wish I had the rear fingerprint sensor back!

    Mi 9 - Battery

    Percentages don't tell you how much battery a process is using. My "other" category is showing 18%, my screen is showing 8%, my radio app is top with 20% and Messages is at 10%, but my battery charge percentage is still 81% (I'm on a Mi 9 Pro with a much larger battery). If your battery charge...

    Mi 9 - Battery

    It sounds ok. Check the permissions and battery settings on the problem apps, limit them to location only while in use, and make sure they're subject to the Xiaomi battery mangement.

    Mi 9 - Battery

    You're very unlikely to find a rom better than this one for battery life, other than the one it shipped with. If you do actually have a battery problem, it's almost certainly not caused by the rom, more likely an app or possibly the need to wipe data.

    Install Xiaomi.eu UI to Mi9 pro

    Fastboot flash the 9 Pro recovery, boot to recovery, turn off encryption, format data, flash .eu It's exactly the same process on every device, turning off encryption is optional, but so far there's no recovery for the Pro which can decrypt, so it's easier just to turn it off.

    i got my xiaomi mi 9 pro 5g seven months ago i have black screen

    If the phone is active but just the screen is not working, you may be able to operate it using one of the several screen mirroring apps that are available. I use scrcpy on Linux, but there are also Windoze apps.

    Mi9 PRO 5G how to install miui eu?

    You need to remove encryption in TWRP. I forget which option, I detailed it in an earlier forum thread. Uncheck DM Verity and check remove encryption I think.

    MI MIX 3 5G

    The eu rom doesn't have any adverts, that's the main thing for me. It also removes much of the other Chinese bloatware, and cleans up any other residual Chinese text. There is also a lengthy list of other enhancements that you can find at the beginning of the rom thread, for example they tend...
