[Xiaomi Mi 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Dobsgw:
Unfortunately you have a Chinese phone that's been flashed with a locked bootloader to Global Firmware. (I have this as my phone is model MCT1 which is Chinese but I have the full Global Firmware and locked bootloader)

That's not bad for the phone but the system partition will have a mix of the Chinese ROM and the global ROM which is annoying for you.

I think sellers do this to avoid unlocking the bootloader but so that they can sell you a global phone which is fine.

You will need the official Xiaomi flashtool from their website.

You will need to unlock your bootloader (you can relock it after flash so don't worry about warranty etc)

Wait the time to unlock the BL (you need to link the device to your account and then apply for unlocking).

Use the tool to unlock and then flash the official global firmware from en.miui.com

In the tool select to relock the bootloader after flash.

You will then have fully clean install of Miui global!

All the region settings will be back then.

And system with be more stable.

Look for guides on the miui forum they're very good with that stuff.

I've personally not done this but know this is the official method to change the ROM from Chinese to global and vice versa.

Good luck and take it one step at a time and read the guides carefully.

It has minimal risk if you use the official tools provided.

I have flashed rom eu stable 9.0.3 (was released 17-11). It works very well for me. Battery's life is excellent.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] super 8:
I also had the global stable 8.5.1.0 (MIUI 8) and only China region in the settings. And I have been able to update to MIUI 9 without problems from the updater app. Downloading the complete rom from the official link and clicking on choose package update. It was not necessary to open Bootloader or make backup or anything.

Hello. I recently bought a Xiaomi mi 6 4/64 version, I don't know if this is the right place to ask but I'll do it anyway, cause I haven't found any other thread about it.

I want to know if the process to root, twrp, etc, has any difference from 6/64 and 6/128 versions.

Also, the phone came with 9.0.1.0 version and I don't know if I should update to 9.0.2.0 before making root process.

If anyone can help me, it would be great.

Thanks in advance

Hello,

I have a problem with ota Update. I haven't got it yet;(

I bought a xiaomi mi 6 from AliExpress Xiaomi online store with ota Update, but I got brand new phone with unlocked bootloader.

Rom:

MIUI Goobal 8.2 | Stable 8.2.0.2.0 NCAMIEC.

Region settings looks okey, I have my Poland region there.

Someone know how to repair that ??
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] VzQzZ:
Since you already have unlocked bootloader, just download the latest ROM and flash it through Mi Flash program.

I recommend you to use the Beta Global ROM. Notice that you need to download the Fastboot ROM in order to be able to flash it Mi Flash.

With this program you can also lock your bootloader, if you wish to do that. There are a bunch of tutorials on how to use it over the internet. It's pretty easy.

With SuperSU, most of the times you can simply use the full unroot option in the SuperSU app and let it restore your stock boot image, alternatively use the full unroot option and then flash the stock boot image before installing Magisk.

When I went into recovery I got philz touch and loaded the UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.37.zip that was instructed. However I am got stuck in permanent reboot.

I followed the instructions in this thread up until post #6, but I don't understand how to "reflash my custom recovery". I am currently on the fasboot screen after having successfully run "fastboot flash zip firmware-2.22.531.5.zip".

Is this removing the philz touch image? How is this done?

Or more what I'm after, how do I get to a rooted phone from here which is usable?

Thank you in advance for any help given!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maultasche:

Hold on, I missed this part. Why would you even flash this zip? I don't even know what that is. I'm not even sure this zip was intended for your phone. Flashing zips which are not for your device model could brick the phone.

Download the TWRP backup from post #3. It's the first one there for your device. After you downloaded the backup, flash the latest TWRP which I linked earlier. Boot into TWRP and restore the backup. If the phone is not booting then follow instructions in post #5 to flash firmware.

But before you go and restore a backup try to flash firmware as mentioned in post #5. You need to relock bootloader though.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MonkeyBrains7532:
It was originally just on the White with green "HTC" text boot screen. I'm now in fastboot.

So I have downloaded the following.

I also downloaded the below (on the mega-nz.com link).

hboot 3.19.0000 - 6.xx.xxx.x (Marshmallow)

CID ORANG001

6.12.61.4​

as well as the below from post #5

CID ORANG001

MID 0P6B10000

fw_6.12.61.4​

I attempted to flash the TWRP, but got "'flashboot' is not recognized as an internal or external command". I am still in the directory where I downloaded flashboot and this is a new error..

I then started on the instructions in post #5, all the way up to "fastboot flash zip fw_6.12.61.4.zip" but I get the same "...not recognized..." error. My phone is now on a screen similar to fastboot, but there is just the one option, "RUU". It was on a black screen with "HTC" in the middle a moment ago when I was trying to flash the zip.

[MENTION=8678047]MonkeyBrains7532[/MENTION]

What do you mean with flashboot? Or is this just a typo? There is no flashboot command. The basic idea is:

fastboot flash recovery NameOfRecovery.img

You can also only boot into TWRP with fastboot boot NameOfRecovery.img

If you want to try to flash only the firmware first you need to lock bootloader first. I'm not quite sure if you should be on stock recovery for that. You can flash that one as well with the mentioned command

So I continued off where I left, firstly by putting the phone in flashboot mode then repeating step 4 on post #5.

However, when I ran "fastboot oem rebootRUU" in cmd it just sat on "<waiting for device>" until I killed the command.

Is this just a question of leave it alone for a little while?

Download this file, put it into the root directory of an external SD card, boot your phone into hboot. Your phone should recognize this file and ask you if you want to flash this file. It will flash TWRP, it's another way to install a custom recovery if bootloader is unlocked. If the flash is successful remove the SD card and try to boot into TWRP.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MonkeyBrains7532:
Unfortunately it does not appear to work.

I tried with the zip file in root, then the extracted file in root, then the contents in root.

It did check the SD card in each case, flashing some text briefly. When it was just the .zip it flashed the following text

SD checking...

no gift file...

loading...[0P6BIAG.zip]

No image!

loading [0P6BIAG.nhb]

No image or wrong image!

loading...[0P6BIMG.zip]

I am confident that I read "...IAG" for the first two after having run it a few more times. That text then clears and then there's just

HBOOT

Checking...

Press <POWER> to rebooot.

Where those two lines are one on top of the other (power line on top checking line).

EDIT: I should mention there were no other zip files in the root, certainly nothing named 0P6BIAG.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
The zip should not be unzipped in case you try that. Do you get an error message after you try to update via the zip. It's weird that you only get asked to reboot. Usually it would complain. Hold on a sec. I'll get you another zip in a few min

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
As stated you can't flash the zip if bootloader is unlocked. But since you now have a custom recovery installed might as well flash latest SuperSu and try to boot.

Edit: if it doesn't boot, boot into recovery, connect your phone with your PC, save all your stuff you need and restore a TWRP backup from the thread. After restoring try to boot first before you do anything else. If you can boot then root your ROM and you're good to go.

I'll be offline for a while now

Those RUUs from HTC's website won't work for you no matter if they are a .zip or a .exe. They are all for US models only, and you have an Asian model.

This is the RUU that you need. It's for 6.2.709.2 and will update you to the latest (and last) version released for your phone.

First make sure that you don't have any files named 0P6BIMG.zip on your extSD. You can only have one file named 0P6BIMG on there for this to work, so delete any you have named to that.

Download the linked RUU and rename it by deleting everything in the name of the .zip except for 0P6BIMG (and .zip of course)

Put that onto your extSD, boot to bootloader.......etc.

After the flash is done, delete the renamed file from your extSD. If you don't it'll try to update again every time you boot to bootloader/hboot.

Also as you probably already know, this will wipe your phone, so backup anything important to you.

Good luck!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Same issue as what? The OP, that was using incorrect (outdated) files from 3 years ago? Clockworkmod (CWM) custom recovery, which is also outdated and does not (never did) officially support the M8?

You don't even have an unlocked bootloader (no way to install custom recovery or custom ROMs with a locked bootloader), so how is this in any way the "same issue?"

I know you are new here, so my advice, when posting question/problem always state in detail what that problem is. What exactly you want to do, and have done to the point, step by step, with as much specific info as possible (file names, version numbers, specific error messages or other results after each step, etc.) as well as getvar output.
