What does device properties, details, hardware ids show to this device?

You should be able to upgrade it in EDL mode with MiFlash.

There is also Settings, Battery & performance, System animations switch.

Yes, it's a downgrade so wipe data is a needed.

If you want some other rom than MIUI at some point, Qualcomm is only option.

Yes, you have to install Android Platform Tools package which includes "adb" and "fastboot" programs, it should be included in your distributions package repository.

I had my Mi4 locked once, might have used MiFlash clean all and lock option accidentally. IIRC simple "fastboot oem unlock" unlocked it.

Magisk integrated root works only when installing unrooted system, 13.2 was just released. This might remove all root stuff: XDA - osm0sis unSU Script If TWRP problems, always try latest official from https://twrp.me/.

Did you install Magisk/SuperSU right after rom or booted MIUI and again in recover and install? Try other way also.

Never wipe system, rom install overwrites it anyway. You could try reboot to recovery from TWRP and then try install again. If it does not work MiFlash Xiaomi official firmware, install TWRP and xiaomi.eu again.

This switch depends on Android version, IIRC it is in Marshmallow and newer.

No need for power button, it should boot to recovery with just "fastboot boot twrp-file-name.img" command.

Boot to recovery and wipe cache and dalvik.

No you can not, you need to buy global/international version of Mi Max 2.

Take TWRP backup and test new version with full wipes? (7.3.2 is way too long back, need full wipes.)

Could be related to unofficial unlock method (if it was unlocked by seller). MiFlash dev rom with "clean all and lock" option and use official unlock tool. Use MiFlash in EDL mode, it should work even if something is wrong in software side.

Translators probably notice Github issue faster.

fastboot devices fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-0-mido.img fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1-0-mido.img Boot straight to TWRP after install or original recovery gets reflashed automatically.

Yes TWRP backup and restore. package_extract_file("firmware-update/NON-HLOS.bin", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/modem"); I believe installing rom zip updates modem firmware and some other partitions which are not included in TWRP backup and restore. New rom might have new modem firmware that...

Restoring backup doesn't restore modem firmware etc. i think.
