[GUIDE] How to install Xiaomi.eu ROM for Xiaomi 12/12S series


It is a recovery ROM and is installed via TWRP.
TWRP: https://sourceforge.net/projects/recovery-for-xiaomi-devices/files/

Rename the downloaded TWRP file to twrp.img and install.
Thanks. Time to figure out how to get TWRP on my phone
 
Good news! On eu rom miui 14 and above. Android auto wireless doesn't disconnect anymore when using the 50w wireless car charger.

On previous eu rom it always disconnected when using Android auto wireless and the 50w wireless car charger. The 20w wireless car charger worked fine.

Now can finally enjoy wireless fast charging in the car

Now other than having to send video files in Whatsapp as Document instead of Video (to avoid stuttering video files) the eu rom is perfect. Waze also fixed for Android auto wireless

Hi
If the device nvr has 'fastboot eu rom', meaning i just can flash 'recovery eu rom' via twrp on top of existing rom (default rom that come with the device) ?

With TWRP installs can we then do the subsequent xiaomi.eu updates without reformatting the phone in the future?
Because the only instructions I've seen about updates always point to a fastboot update, and not Recovery... I wanted to avoid the frequent formats.
 
Every update is without data loss (no Format Data). And the update method doesn't matter. If a "Hybrid ROM" has been released, it can be installed using the fastboot or Recovery (TWRP) method.
 
So the dataloss is only for the first install (or after changing from weekly to stable)?
And for those "Hybrid ROM" what's the best method to use: fastboot or Recovery?

It depends on the user what suits him. You do not need a PC to update in recovery (TWRP).

That's a good point. Well, in this case I only have Recovery update available for Xiaomi 12 for now. Let's see what's available as soon as my bootloader is unlocked and then I'll decide.
Thank you very much!

Hi, instead of updating from dev to dev i've downgraded from dev to stable... (I know I'm dumb).
The phone show me the miui recovery menu with the four input.
But now, I can't reflash to dev after several hours.
I get this exact message

FAILED (remote: 'Download is not allowed on locked devices')​


But i'm unlocked and don't really know what I need to do anymore. I have an 12 pro
 
I recommend you to flash back any official firmware using Mi flash tool, but pay attention to not lock the bootloader (choose flash_all script).
Then, once the process completed, retake steps to flash desired xiaomi.eu rom. For that, read first post from the thread which announced the latest rom release for your model.

Thanks for the reply! I've tried to flash the stock ROM but I just cannot do it with succes. However, I've reflashed successfully the weekly ROM
 
What are the required windows tool for cmd to make sure the script will run properly and avoid any errors? My pc was just recently setup. Or no need to install anything just make sure my phone is unlocked I just need to run the script without any tools?
 
Yes.

It depends on the user what suits him. You do not need a PC to update in recovery (TWRP).
If downgrading, from weekly to stable xiaomi.es roms: it's possible recovery mode if data format is mandatory? fastboot can be better?

does NFC and contactless payment work on Xiaomi.eu?
I will use it here in Brazil.
Yes, it should work just fine, unless you have root installed, which might require some tinkering to avoid problems with device certification in Google Pay.
Source: I'm also Brazilian and using weekly MIUI EU on a Mi 9.
 
Good day to all,
I update my phone via TWRP when new firmware is available, and I would like to know if TWRP is updated at the same time as the firmware or if I should look if TWRP update is available and do it "on the side." ?
Thanks
 
It depends on what device you have. If your device is Xiaomi 12X then yes TWRP is included in the ROM.
- device A/B > TWRP is part of the ROM (if available for that model)
- device A/B rec > TWRP must be installed separately (not included in ROM)
Table of models A/B

Hello. I am new on this forum and i want to ask if you permit: what rom to choose for 12 pro, stable or dev (which is better from your experience)? I am confused with choosing. Also, want to know if xiaomi.eu rom does include standard root or not?
 
- The weekly version is a developer version and contains the latest features (bugs may occur)
(updates come out every weekend but you don't have to use them)
- The Stable version should be "Stable" but there may also be bugs (some features from the Weekly version may not be included)
(updates are released irregularly, usually at intervals of approx. 60-90 days)
- Xiaomi.eu ROM does not contain root rights.
