Switching from Xiaomi EU ROM to Global ROM

[eleutherios0]

Hello everyone.
First of all, I want to thank the Xiaomi.eu team for all their hard work.
Due to the recent Google Pay issue and because I’m planning to sell the phone, I’d like to switch to the official Global ROM.
However, I currently don’t have much knowledge about how to do that.


Where can I download the Global ROM?
What tool should I use to flash it?
And after flashing, can I relock the bootloader?


I’d really appreciate your help with these questions.

It is possible but you MUST NOT lock the bootloader.

Thank you so much for the guide and reminder, it's really helpful.
However, is there any way to "save user data" when flash a global ROM into a phone currently with EU ROM?

No. Due to differences in partition numbers and sizes etc, a format is required.
