Official MIUI9 via Recovery? - Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers

Hey guys ! Maybe Us, the (proudly) Redmi 3S owners get soon the MIUI9 updated, but I have a question... Could us that we have Unlocked bootloader / Custom Recovery /Root just to flash .Zip packet like any official Rom? Or We must to flash it via Mi Flasher or OTA update?

We can flash MIUI 9 update from both the TWRP and the stock recovery (if you're on it), so there's nothing to worry about. Even I have an unlocked bootloader and have flashed custom ROMs as well as MIUI using TWRP without any problems.

Why not flash another official ROM by MiFlash? It'll bring stock recovery, afaik.
Download the fastboot rom. It will include recovery.img
Thanks guys. I know that fastboot ROM will include the recovery.img but compare 1.7 GB with 30 MB.
I asked for stock recovery because 6.9.28 Global beta was giving find device force close on bootup.
I downloaded xiaomi.eu miui 8.0.6.0 and it's working great.
Global Rom is not good anyway IMHO. Use Chinese dev, it has English.

The ROM from Xiaomi.eu is not exactly stock ROM, it is a heavily modified under the hood version of Stock ROM. It has better RAM management, better fluidity and the number of bloat apps is very few, like 30 in stock and 2-3 in Xiaomi.eu version.
I really like it and I intent to stay on it
Also, are you by the name Aron Ne on Facebook?

I used developer ROM. Flash that first then you will be able to unlock bootloader. Make sure that you have got permission.

Depends on what ROM your on if you have the chinese ROM you could just use the choose update package on the updater app
But if your on a global ROM (which means you have a fake distributor ROM ) u need a custom recovery like TWRP, but by using TWRP that means you need to use a custom ROM unless you'll get a bootloop you can research the ROMs by yourself i recomend using the miui.eu weekly ROM or the mi globe rom
hi,
what are the roms for twrp? MIUI roms for recovery are not for twrp?
xiaomi.eu roms are twrp friendly?
i flashed by twrp a 8.1.2.0 global rom recovery version but no rom boot, stuck at mi logo
so i flashed the emocion rom present here, she boots
so i try to understand there are so many roms the type of those who are twrp OK

Is my phone going to get bricked?

Hello I have Xiaomi Redmi 5 Plus that is currently running on Pixel Experience. Before that i had xiaomi.eu rom 10.3.x.x... The latest rom for my phone from official Xiaomi rom site is 10.2.1.0..
Now the question is will my phone get bricked if i flash stock miui rom?
If you have unlocked bootloader, you can flash latest rom via mi-flash tool. It will not brick your device. Redmi 5 plus aka Vince doesn't have ARB feature. So you are free to flash any version of rom as long as your bootloader is unlocked.

Hi! No, in my experience, I used miui and custom roms, flashing it following their respective instructions and nothing went bad. Follow the instructions and you will go ok, but, if you fail, you will learn how fix it too

yes i know that i wont get bricked for using pixel experience... but i had xiaomi.eu rom on it which was higher than the one xiaomi officially provides... I am asking because i noticed that custom recovery said Detected reinstall of bootloader.. and that is not a good sign..

It doesn't matter, every time you install an update of firmware that message is showed, but remember if you come from miui stock or miui based rom, you need to format data

Reverting back to MIUI

Hi guys,
I am using a Redmi K20 (India).
Installed recovery TWRP and flashed a couple of Custom ROMs.
Tried Evolution and Paranoid. Now, I want to revert to MIUI. Guess I am used to it.
My question is whether I should flash the MIUI Recovery ROM or the MIUI Fastboot ROM? What is the difference?
And which is the latest stable version?
Thanks
For flashing fastboot ROM you need xaomi flash tool. I recommend you to use the tool to flash the official ROM, not the twrp.
U can try xiaomi.eu

Already have TWRP. I want to flash MIUI. Can I do it over TWRP? If yes, which one? Official ROM or Fastboot ROM?

Flash OOS and custom Kernel after flashing other roms via custom recovery?

Hi,
I'm testing roms and kernels for my Oneplus 8 Pro and since I'm still not happy with battery life, I was thinking of going back to stock Oxygen OS (Android 11) but install custom kernel (bluspark?) or xXx mod.
Can I just flash it via adb sideload via custom recovery or I have to relock bootloader and do something else?
If just flashing stock OOS image is enough, which one should I use?
Thanks!

Use msmtool, then unlock bootloader, then flash a tooted boot.img for you OOS version, then use a kernel manager like Ex Kenrnel manager to flash a custom kernel

alright. I thought there is a way to flash it directly via recovery instead of going through all the process again.
Where can I find a rooted boot.img for my version? I have the europe/global(?) device and was on latest OOS Android 11.
Or should I rather flash Android 10?
