Hello guys,
Maybe you have time to help me out with this problem when flashing the eu rom to my mi max 3
Here's the scenario:
I bought my max 3 last week, it's not available in my country so I had to import.
The phone arrived with the bootloader already unlocked (I'm suspicious about it) and a global official rom v10.3.5.0 (seems legit)
So I figured it is a chinese model with global rom.
I flashed the eu rom the way I did with my max 2 using the procedure posted here. But it did not go quite well like my max 2.
Here's what I did and what the results were:
1.) After the phone booted to twrp, it was asking for a password. I don't know what to do so I just ignored it.
2.) data could not be wiped... twrp said I may need to do a factory reset so I did, rebooted again to twrp and tried to wipe the data, same result so I resorted to wiping all except for the system and persist
3.) I flashed the eu rom- xiaomi.eu_multi_MIMAX3_V11.0.3.0.PEDCNXM_v11-9, it did completed successfully but it would not boot with a message on the screen "reset phone" in the middle and below the screen said something like "the password you entered in correct but the data is corrupted, you need to perform a factory reset.... blah blah blah". Phone keeps doing that. Installation to eu rom wasn't successful.
What did I missed? Something about encryption perhaps? Wrong twrp version?
Honesty I'm not really good at this and I'm hoping you can educate me so I can avoid such situation(s) in the future.
I just flashed the latest global rom v11.0.6 using miflashtool with clean all option. I'm too scared to flash it back to v10.3.5 due to ARB.
I really love the eu rom more than the global version but I guess now that my phone is in the latest global rom, I may have to wait until the next release.
Thanks in advance and thanks for your time.
