True, it's not Xiaomi's fault but mine.Which part you don't get? It's not Xiaomi's fault that you chose to buy a Chinese version instead of a European version.
What I don't get is why I would be able to download the latest stable version using the MIUI Updater, all fine and then I hit "Install" and all it does it goes straight into MIUI Recovery 5.0 and the only option I got there is to do a standard reboot...
