Is there ANY way that ginkgo or lavender can use the current ROM? Is there a workaround (like we have found for umi)? Or is the only currently known solution to go back to the previous week's ROM (with its associated complications)? If there is no solution (or workaround), then maybe the developers need to put a note in post #2 to this effect, and maybe even withdraw this week's ROM for them.
It's not like umi here ..
YES!
So this has happened before? Great job Xiaomi...
Thanks, unfortunately the is no newer version for Redmi Note 8 - ginkgoYES!
it"s a family surrounding phone and I wasn't able to install latest EU stable OTA because official recovery failed to decrypt.
Just download Ofox latest release and install the zip via OTG or External SDcard. You can also unzip the package and boot or flash recovery.img via fastboot.
Anyway best is to remove password pin in order to try before with official reco, but didn't work for my case.
Come back if any issue.

Now I'm confused - this works for GINGKO? The Orange Fox OrangeFox-R11.0-Stable-ginkgo.zip doesn't decrypt - same as the yesterday released TWRP by mauronofrio @XDAYES!

updates were stoped in 14...to update miui to 12.5
We are at the end of the chain. There are clearly some important issues affecting several boards which are going to have to be looked at. This is apart from the interim upgrade to Miui 13. I do not know if Xiaomi have even given any idea of the time scale.
Have you tried a Factory reset (from within TWRP)?
What waiting 168 hours and then another 168 hours? If it was going to be two lots of 168 hours then it should of said. 168 hours is a week and thats gone by.
It seems like many people complain about similar issues. Did you sign out of your mi accoubnt or tried to unlock before the time it needed? Xiaomi seems to try to keep people with the bootloader locked... For me about 3-4 days has passed and I'm waiting for a week to pass to unlock it. ~Dunno, but it might happen the same to me too.... That would probably put back many plans I have for setting up the phone the way I want...
Nope I waited a week like it said. When I unlocked my Mi 9T I followed the guide and it unlocked instantly with no wait times as I had permission from previously owning a redmi note 3 pro.
Did you retry? It might be a good idea taking some pics as evidence and contact support (they probably wont help but at least they might learn the issue). ~Dunno if that's linked, but I ~can't do the sim activation on my phone since I teied it. After contafting phone provider and xiaomi support they ~told me that the xiaomi might have issues recently (even though on the web it seems like this is a problem long time unsolved).
Just tried it again and all that has changed is it now says 167 hours to go. Ughh. I'll leave it be atm. Just want Xiaomi.eu on my device again lol.
Your phone (and computer) tends to run more efficiently if RAM is used. It is more efficient if certain 'things' are held in memory, rather than having to search and load each time. What's the point of having 32Gb of RAM on a computer if you are only using 4Gb?
