Mi Max 3 MIUI ROMs without firmware
We all know that Xiaomi added Anti roll-back to latest Stable/Beta ROMs (8.8.17 China Beta | 9.6.12.0 China stable) for (Mi Max 3). Which means if you flashed an older fw/rom with a different (lower) anti version of your current one your device will be bricked!
Here I'll provide MIUI ROMs fully stock but without "firmware-update", to prevent any potential bricking while switching between Miui Based ROMs
This process is automated and provided as a part of Xiaomi Firmware Updater Project.

Stable/Developer Firmware-less ROMs
Notes:
After flashing any of the builds above you can't go and flash FULL Miui ROMs to downgrade, just stick to my modded versions if you want to use older MIUI builds
No matter which Anti you have, you can flash any of those ROMs with TWRP
These ROMs doesn't affect your phone bootloader in any way, so you can roll back to your old ROM after Flashing any of the above builds
One more time, those ROMs won't remove or change your anti.
Again, if your phone is anti 4, you can't just simply go and flash FULL older ROM, even after flashing Modded builds, so stick with my builds
Anti 4 users can flash any of those builds just fine
[*]All the notes Above applies for My Modded builds only, do NOT go and share it as facts for all Miui ROMs

Thank you for your work. I am currently on 9.6.4.0
Is the firmware-less version based from the global version from xiaomi.eu?

You have to wait that 714 hours and then you can unlock it.
Can these be flashed to repair partitions.
Where can I get China original before anti roll back

Hello I wanna ask,
Now that V9.6.6.0.OEDMIFD Global was released, I checked and it doesnt have anti-rollback (anti-1)
The problem is that some people are on anti rollback enabled (anti 4) roms and they want to get the global rom.
Is it possible for you to remove the firmware files from 9.6.6.0 and then make a version that allows anti-rollback people to downgrade / change their china rom to it?
Thanks and have a great day!

Thank you for your answer,
1. wont wiping vendor and system brick the phone (MIUI isnt capable of wiping system partition from twrp)?
2. does that mean that when using your modified rom, xiaomi will still send us ota breaking our phones? if so what can we do to prevent this?
3. yes this is the link! I really hope you create a modified version fo this allowing people to finally use a global rom even on anti-rollback
4. when 9.6.8.0 (Anti-rollback) global is released, do we need to update to it using your modified version or can we fastboot clean flash it as it has anti-4 ? I wanna make sue I dont break my device as its not fixable...

1- no, miui will replace it anyway.
2- ota is part of stock rom, my modded rom is stock one without firmware, nothing less, nothing more.
3- I'll leave this to my auto scripts.
4- fastboot or flash from twrp.
5- this rom is legit, official from mi. http://ru.miui.com/thread-14549-1-1.html
I flashed Android 9.0 Pie beta just a few days ago and everything works fine.
But, now I have to visit Huawei service (camera won't focus) and I'd like to lock the bootloader beforehand, so that the warning message goes away. Maybe even downgrade to 8.0, because having 9.0 beta installed may seem suspicious.
Broken camera has nothing to do with an unlocked bootloader, but I don't want to risk being denied.
I've read several articles, but none for Android 9.0. Is there a relatively safe way to do that?
I'm on stock android version 8.1.0 with FEB 1,2019 security patch level
Build number - OPM1.WW_Phone-15.2015.1902.340-20190216
I've not updated my device to latest update available as it have too much bugs, i'll never update in future too unless its better than oreo stable one
I want to enable camera2api in my device to use
On googling how to do it, many results came but few are too old when the device was launched or for pie, i can't get video/instruction for oreo 8.1.0 version on which my device is.
If anyone knows how to do it safely without any risk on MY version of android, PLEASE HELP/REPLY ASAP !!!!!
P.S - i want to enable it without unloacking bootloader or messing up the OTAs or messing up with system except enabling camera2api
Try the fastboot command to enable cam2api since you are still on Oreo (Search the forum, the credit should go to @shakalaca ).
If it doesn't work then you will need root access.
Hi. I haven't found any simple way of downgrading from beta to stable . Is there any simple way of doing it? I went to beta easily through app called Oxygen Updater but now i have no idea how to go back to stable Android 10 (if there is even stable Android 10) .
Thank you for help :highfive:
nvm, can lock. It is as simple as downloading stable ota package and installing it through local update in Updater.

Edit: sorry miss read the question ,get the stable 10 package and install that via local upgrade,you will be warned that this might cause data loss but because stable is a newer build than beta you will not lose any data,
By the way,both builds for A10 are currently bug ridden messes, hopefully newer builds here soon
Hi,
I have a question that some experienced user may answer.
I'm running MI 9T global version with MIUI 10.3.9.0 (PFJMIXM) - Android 9. Is it possible to skip Xiaomi suggested upgrades and get directly to MIUI 11 based on Android 10? Or are all upgrades incremental and I need to get through all of them to get to the latest version?
Is it possible to update phone with the latest stock rom without unlocking bootloader?
Thanks for answer.

Hello,
Full OTA update (= Recovery package) can be flashed over any version. So download Recovery/Full OTA and install it.

Yes, you can skip those updates directly to the latest one, no need to unlock the bootloader to complete this process.
