so as i understand this tool is useful for example when you stuck on an old EU MIUI or other custom rom and Xiaomi release meanwhile new drivers, recovery, etc. right? and this package can update these stuff without issues?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] yshalsager:
Clear your doubts by reading this https://xmfirmwareupdater.com/faq/

In a nutshell, it's made for custom roms users who don't flash miui regularly.

So, I'm almost decided to stop providing firmware-less roms. It's taking a huge amount of size compared to normal fw packages, and the download number is really low (around 500 per month).

Is there's anyone here who REALLY need it?

BTW, Xiaomi Firmware Creator tool can make fw-less builds, and you can get it to make your own builds.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] eboye:
Well, I think it's great resource to have these firmwares in one place.

I just have one question. Is there roll back protection since January releases? Since I haven't flashed newer versions for polaris I'm concerned if I'll hit the wall by flashing firmware e.g. latest
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] yshalsager:
1- The firmwares won't go anywhere, just the roms without firmware I was providing recently.

2- Polaris doesn't have ARB. :p

I've planned to make an application for the project. It'll not only use the same website backend to get latest builds faster, but also Xiaomi Firmware Creator features :laugh:

Redmi Note 7 global version (lavender) (48mp camera) -->	is there truly no global release firmware ? since the phone is sold worldwide
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] berkantkz:
If you are talking about the firmwares, then you probably haven't checked project's website for lavender downloads. This is clearly stated on the thread though.

If you are talking about ROMs, then again you probably didn't check MIUI downloads on project's website.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Cryslin111:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] :
Sorry I didn't notice this earlier and reply.

Would I be correct in assuming that the ro.build.version.security_patch is tied to the build of Android and the [ro.vendor.build.security_patch] is firmware? If updating the firmware with this firmware updater isn't sufficient in raising the ro.vendor.build.security_patch, then would the only way to be flash a modern version of MIUI from their download page before using the ROM of my choice.

I made this assumption because

[ro.build.version.security_patch]: [2018-11-05] - approximate last LineageOS release

[ro.vendor.build.security_patch]: [2018-05-01] - approximately the last time I had MIUI on my phone.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] yshalsager:
You're correct about ro.build.version.security_patch] is ROM's security patch.

But updating firmware using my ZIP files won't affect it in any way.

However, ro.build.version.security_patch] is Vendor's security patch.

If you have a device that uses MIUI vendor in custom ROMs, you need to flash updated vendor to get it updated.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] :
Yes that makes sense. When I first got the phone I updated MIUI to V9.5.17.0.OEIMIFA which was the latest ARB 3 ROM. That was around June 2018.

At the time I was cautious about updating to ARB 4 (ie anything past MIUI V9.5.17). At this point though there's not really any reason to stay on ARB3.

There does seem to be a vendor partition, so I guess your thing only updates /dev/block/mmcblk0p56 aka /firmware. This page describes the partitions.

Even though I use LineageOS, I guess every now and again I should flash MIUI back onto the device to make sure that other things get updated such as /vendor or unless there's a better way?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] yshalsager:
My project updates more than just one partition.

If fact, you don't need to worry about /vendor updates. Because for most devices custom roms, blobs are being used from miui.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Brodax:

1. What is firmware and is it necessary?

Hi all, I'm trying to flash the latest dev firmware on my Poco F1 so I can update to the latest Pixel Experience version. I'm on TWRP 3.3.0.0, unlocked via Xiaomi. These are my logs.

https://i.imgur.com/zutOene.png

https://i.imgur.com/d2xcQSM.png

It doesn't even look like the install really fails, it just looks weird. But when I try to install the PE update, I still get a message saying dev firmware 9.4.26 is required, so I guess the install actually did fail. What's goin' on?

Also asking this in the Poco F1 PE thread.

Seemed more appropriate to respond to you in this thread.

Hi.

Should be nothing special.

My first thought was you are running into a zip Signature problem.

I just got a chance to try the 9.5.30 version from your link.

Selecting Poco I was redirected to github and downloaded it from there.

First install no problems.

I turned on Zip signature verification on under setting in twrp and tried again.

I assume this error you are seeing.

Not sure what recovery you are using but, you should be able to turn off the signature verification.

I did not check the zip but, either it's not signed or not signed by a generic key.

I do not normally use the flashable firmware updates.

I follow the updater on telegram though. I prefer the fastboot links. ;)

- No More Global Beta

Xiaomi has decided to end the public beta program for all Global devices, including the devices that don’t have a Chinese variant like Pocophone F1 and Redmi Note 6 Pro. This is sad news for Xiaomi community, as many users have been using the weekly ROMs for a long time.

Also, this means there’ll be no Global firmware updates by us :( Please switch to latest Global Stable firmware for your device once a new update comes out. If you have a Chinese device or don’t have a problem with using Chinese firmware on your global device, you can flash weekly china firmware which will continue to release.

- MIUI Updates Tracker has been updated to V2.2

Changes:

New: RSS feeds for devices update

New: Separated devices' JSON files are now pushed to the repo

How to use RSS feeds?

Starting from V2.2 the script will push JSON and XML files for each device, in addition to the all-in-one file that was already available.

These files can be used for whatever project, just give the proper credits to XiaomiFirmwareUpdater project

Files are separated by branch: Stable Recovery - Stable Fastboot - Weekly Recovery - Weekly Fastboot

RSS files are available here (https://github.com/XiaomiFirmwareUpdater/miui-updates-tracker/tree/master/rss), Just open any XML file in raw view, copy the link, add to your RSS feed and enjoy :D

- Xiaomi Firmware Updater Changelog 4 - New supported devices, new projects and more!

Changes:

New: Added the following devices to stable: Redmi K20/K20 Pro - Mi 9T/9T Pro - Mix 3 5G - Redmi 7 India - Mi 9 SE Global - Redmi 7A - Mi CC 9/9e

New: Added the following devices to weekly tracking: Mi 9 SE

New: Add MTK devices: Redmi 6 - Redmi 6A - Mi Play

Change: Drop Redmi Note 5 Pro from non-ARB firmware devices

Removed: All EOL devices

Removed: All Global Beta devices
