Poco F3 (alioth) EEU Stock ROM 1.0.3 to xiaomi.eu (alioth) -> fastboot method (?)

[CyNote]

Hi everyone,

I'm an old guy now, with Poco F3 device in my hands. From my ... I received 1.0.3 EEU version which is removed by Xiaomi Officially and cannot even be found on their Download Section as a full fastboot rom. 1.0.3 has a lot of issues, especially VoLTE is not working which is important for me.

Now am up to unlocking the bootloader, my question is:

After unlocking is successful, can I flash xiaomi.eu 1.0.6 for alioth found here by fastboot ?

I have seen in many sites, they require 1.0.2.

Please advise @ingbrzy (Thank you also for your hard work so many years)

Good morning @ingbrzy and a Happy New Year !!!

Thank you for your reply to my post, I appreciate it.

It's a headache to be on 1.0.3 EEU (stock ROM) and nothing to be working normally.

My only worry is Revolut on xiaomi.eu but I will check it as I believe SafetyNet etc. all goes well with your ROM here.

Best Regards,

I can't access the Revolut app

Good morning. The revolut app won't let me log in because it says my phone is rooted. That is false because to install the version I have of the xiaomi.eu rom (1.0.6.0 with hyper os 1.0) it is not necessary to have the phone rooted. Do you know any possible solution? My phone is a poco F3...

xiaomi.eu

Yeap! This is the headache now. Though, I have received 1.0.3 by my own wrong step to change region once, and 1.0.3 broke a lot of things. Now am thinking to downgrade to 1.0.2 using MiFlash Tool and then set-up TWRP and Xiaomi.EU as I was doing years ago BUT: I'm afraid of the anti-roll back = brick from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2

You can do a downgrade without any problems by doing a format data.
Anti-rollback doesn't matter anymore: https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/miui-13-stable-release.64441/page-244#post-674856

Unfortunately on 1.0.3 you cannot flash a Custom Recovery. So, if Downgrade can be done from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2 with MiFlash Tool and not bricking it that would be nice. Afterwards with 1.0.2 I can flash eg. TWRP and so on.

Of course you can flash a custom recovery: https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/installing-a-custom-recovery.67841/
But not all can decrypt since beginning of Android 14 (or A13?, dont't know exactly).
But as a custom recovery isn't necessary anymore for flashing Xiaomi.eu, it's not important.

For now Xiaomi Community does not give me the permission to unlock my bootloader. From 03/01 moved to 04/01, then from 06/01 moved to 08/01 and I have 3658 days in Mi Community.
