Greetings to all colleagues!
I want to update the firmware on my Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra (star).
Of course, I want to save all the available data in the phone and not get a brick as a result of the firmware.
I apologize in advance for the silly/unintelligible newbie questions.
I try to provide as much input as possible.
At the moment, a stable version of Xiaomi.eu firmware is installed.
12.5.20.0 and recovery TWRP version 3.5.1.
The phone offers me an OTA update on Xuaomi.eu version 13.0.13.0.
1) Can I just agree with the offer and everything will go smoothly without a brick as a result of the firmware?
2) or do I need to update the TWRP recovery first?
3) if I need to update recovery first, then which one of these https://sourceforge.net/projects/recovery-for-xiaomi-devices/files/star/
?
4) if the answer to question #2. - "yes", can I just flash a new recovery from inside the old one, then boot back into the old system on Android 11? Or the OTA update should already be downloaded by this moment and you need to immediately flash it from inside the newly flashed recovery?
5) I repeat my stupid question - will all data be saved: programs, files, photos, videos?
If I asked something incorrectly or missed - I apologize and help.
Thanks in advance for your help, friends.
