[ INFO/FIRMWARE ] Firmware 23.0.1.A.3.12 + Root + Recovery

Finally!!
After using 2 days of reading and learning, I`ve got the latest firmware (23.0.1.A.3.12) from Taiwan rooted and with recovery working flawless.
And when "I" is beeing mentioned, ALL credits goes to: DooMLorD, [NUT], Phil3759, bin4ry, geohot and several others!
** DOWNLOAD: hxxps://mega.co.nz/#F!Lh422LgQ!qz_DQnBKzoXVTRTwx05Clw
** BEWARE: INSTALLATION SCRIPTS ARE NOT COMPLETE, YOU GOT TO READ THE README!
Sadly, the changelog for this firmware is missing all over internet, but there is definitly some APN / Carrier update and it contains some minor bugsfixes.
The device System UI also seems to be a bit smoother.

I think this update just to fix some issues of mobile signal of Taiwan's carriers, and some bloatware. I compared files' size in both of 167 and 3.12 firmware, seem nothing is changed.

noob questions
installing this, gonna delete wipe my cell ?

how do i root it ive already installed it through ota update.

no major update, its only a small carrier update.

Has anybody successfully rooted using this? Feel like there should be a bit more fanfare.....

capture OTA pls

4th time downloading... Keeps failing, maybe root or custom recovery interfering?

Root will interfere with downloading OTA, you'll have to wait for it on PC Companion.
Do you know what build number is downloading?

If I'm rooted and someone uploads the .zip can I just install the OTA and then a SuperSU zip or do I have to wait until someone makes an OTA with SU binaries all ready?

23.1.C.0.385
I apologize, I don't know how to get the .zip file from OTA

That's what I meant by keeps failing...

I just downloaded this and was looking for trusted devices feature which should be new with lollipop however I was not able to find it. Here's the description of the feature. http://www.talkandroid.com/guides/a...to-automatically-unlock-your-phone-or-tablet/
Can anyone else verify if it is there or not?
EDIT: Found it. After a reboot it showed up under Security>Trusted Agents.

I updated to B329 last night. I used Firmware Finder, and installed the latest file from 03/05/2017, and everything went smoothly. I updated from B125 though.
When using the Firmware Finder proxy method, make sure to turn OFF "See packages from current region". This is important, otherwise you'll end up with NRD90M test-keys. Good luck, and I hope it works for you. This is done at your own risk though.

No, you do not need to be rooted.

thanks for your reply, but it doesn't work.
when I download the package, I can't send the update to the "normal application", I always receive a message to adapt the proxy setting (it's done).

Yeah, I succeeded to update just a couple days after the post, now im planning on debranding my phone and going to b388.

I never had that problem, so unfortunately I can't help you with that. It could be Firmware Finder that is causing that.

I can't download it from mi.com. Where can I get it?

http://en.miui.com/a-234.html
There's latest global dev which is supposed to be Oreo version, but I guess they took it down from main download site for a reason

I also received the notification, but I will not update it. There are many bug reports in this version.

Is there anything for those who dont want to unlock the bootloader?

Who updated it can someone share ???

I got the update from the app. I'm asking for suggestion should update or not?

This update according to the forum of MIUI, brings too many bug, so they recommend noo update ..
regards,
JC

I would not recommend the update.
There are many current complaints about it, some of them pretty serious - soft Brick - and they are consistent.
Wait for Xiaomi to address this.

This is not the same "beta stable" that was released the 12 of Feb, this is just a bit more polished... Anyway for those who want to have the bootloader locked and an xiaomi rom, stick to developer version, they are more stable than the stable version...

Here's the full changelog.
I still haven't installed though....

NFC bugs
Please upvote
Code:
en.miui.com/thread-1902264-1-1.html
on MIUI forum this if you encountered problems with Google Pay after updating to 9.2.3.0

Alright....I lasted 24hrs.
I updated.
Annnnnd....can I just say that it is noticeably faster opening apps?
Also the screen sensitivity had been increased.
So, I'll stick with it and let you know if I have problems.

Just updated and running smooth for now.
No issues found, connectivity working as normal, phone is fast...
Regards,

Last night when I checked there was only China Stable and China Developer roms on miui site, now it has Globals too. Looks like thats a true stable but with all that bugs reported...

After update, I can't install TWRP properly (permanently) and TWRP has no access to SD.

here we go =))

Hi, I have several problems with this new update. NFC pay doesn't work anymore, no sounds for email, emails notifications are shown twice, notification from running background apps can not hide anymore (VLC, Messenger,etc). All other things are ok

Will the bootloader relock if I update from OTA ?
