End of betas Mi 9

[Imtuga]

So, just like other devices launched at the same time period of Mi 9, the MIUI beta as reached it's end.
Since there will not exist any betas available from now on, is it possible and save to install the most recent stable MIUI on these devices without formatting?
Or....
Will it have a final stable version to apply over the last beta update?

I would like to thank everyone involved in this project. Amazing work.
Thank you for any help

Easy to say "already been talked about" when the forum search doesn't get the answers I need, cause I don't wanna format data.
Thank you for the quick helpful reply.

So it won't be released a newer stable version to avoid formatting?
It mentions that if I want any update I should update to stable, that's why I'm asking

It does not say update to Stable. He says move to the Stable
If you want to get any updates for your device, move to the Stable ROM.

When you move to Stable ROM you will receive updates.

Or move to AOSP rom!

So here's what i suggest you do.

1 make a full twrp backup and copy to pc
2 use a root backup app to backup all important apps and data
3 copy all important files in internal storage to pc (including the backup from step 2)
4 flash the latest stable rom
If no issues...then that's it.

If issues arise (bootloop)
You can do this
1 flash the previous beta rom your device running before the update
2 Reboot

Or this
1 format data, root and reboot device
2 restore the apps and data from the root backup
3 copy important files back to device from pc
3 use your device as usual

Or buy a new phone, as I did already. After more than 10 years with MIUI, switched to Pixel 6.

You can try this port!

Thanks, Pixel 6 was a disaster. Using now Mi 11 Ultra. I have Mi9 in my office, I could try this port.
