I've just tried it and the bootloader has to be unlocked, otherwise the phone will not boot. But thanks for your guide, I have succesfully installed Global, many thanks :) so to sum things up, to install Global rom you need to:

Unlock your bootloader

Flash TWRP from Xiaomi.eu

Flash Global from first post and WITHOUT rebooting flash region fix from carburano's guide

Now you can reboot to system

A small yet important edit as I've seen my post being quoted multiple times: you need to format the data partition (which means erasing all of your user data, including all your files) during the installation process, otherwise the system will not boot. A normal wipe (without wiping your personal files) is not sufficient since the data partition is encrypted and thus unreadable for the newly installed ROM, leading to a bootloop.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] carburano:
So strange... BTW if my info are correct in a couple of days fastboot version will be out :)
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] teddy74eva:
Yeah, I don't know what's going on as well, probably dm-verity kicks in and prevents booting because you can see the bootanimation with the MIX logo. I hope fastboot version will get rid of such problems :)

P.S. If you try to boot with locked bootloader, it will reboot to recovery with a red "This version of MIUI can't be installed on your device" text.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] carburano:
ah ok now is clear. I hope fastboot version will solve everything
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Puksom:
Thanks a lot! This did the trick by flashing the region unlock after the global ROM! It's blazing fast compared to the one from xiaomi.eu

Only downside I found is that this official global ROM doesn't have Dutch language and theme manager but he I don't care!

Thanks a lot for the trick!
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] mouse100:
So should we wait for the fastboot version to flash it without unlocking the bootloader?

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bill Power:
It seems so from the experience of the people who tried it.

We will have to wait a bit more to flash global keeping the locked bootloader.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] malimukk:
Well, to use fastboot you still need an unlocked bootloader, for any rom. Afaik
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bill Power:
I do not fully understand, but Carburano believe it will be possible to flash and keep a locked bootloader as soon as a fastboot Official rom be released.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] carburano:
With MiFlash is not possibile.. We need to try with Xiaomitool but I'm not sure it will be possibile
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bill Power:
Thanks Carburano. Xiaomitool you mean the one in this link, right? https://xiaomitool.com/

You believe the fastboot room will be avaiable soon, right?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Hennessy86:
The tutorial don't work for me.

After flashing, phone always boots back to twrp or fastboot.

Any idea?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bill Power:
Hello, which tutorial did you try?

It seems the only way to get the topic Rom working is the following:
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] PITTAR:
i tried your tutorial the flash of two zip go well but when reboot the phone reboot into recovery
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] teddy74eva:
Make sure you format data in recovery. Tap on wipe in TWRP and on the top right option above the slider (if i recall correctly), then type yes.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] carburano:
Yes on official Xiaomi site LInk is ready but ATM it is not working

Have you wiped correctly?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] PITTAR:
yes i wipped all, also internal storage after that flash the global rom the region.zip and reboot but came back to recovery.

Just curious: What is this region fix, what does it and why do we need it? Thanks for your tutorial anyway!
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Hennessy86:
OK it works now.

I do a full wipe and format data. Then flashing global and regio unlock.

Thanks at all :good:
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] tasar:
I download the region fix now 3 times but have allways an crc error when unpacking "cust_variant" file
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] PITTAR:
yep i tried full wipe and format data before flash and it booted
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Puksom:
Format DATA, and try again. Also make sure to first flash global rom and then the region unlock.

---------- Post added at 06:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:44 PM ----------

Try to download it again. Could be a faulty download
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] tasar:
Ok, is now my fifth download and allways crc error in cust_variant... all other files are ok.

Edit: 3 more downloads and every is corrupt... i give up...

you don't have to unpack

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] cascade128:
Can we also use the roms on this link with regionfix.zip?:confused:

https://funkyhuawei.club/mimix2builds
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] ruicc:
People on Xiaomi.eu forum, are complaining about 8.4.28 version bugs and they had to roll back to 8.4.12.

So my advice is...don't flash until make sure it's a safe software....

The changelog is the same....only says "Bug fixes and system optimizations" :eek::eek:

These versions are from here:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/xiaomi-eu-multilang-miui-roms/files/xiaomi.eu/MIUI-WEEKLY-RELEASES/

---------- Post added at 11:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:11 PM ----------

My thoughts too...what's this region fix, and where this come from?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] teddy74eva:
The ROMs on funkyhuawei are taken directly off Xiaomi's servers and they're official developer builds, thus they have nothing to do with xiaomi.eu ROMs.

Based on what I know and have read today, the region fix zip is altering your /cust folder, where all the information regarding the phone's intended operating region is found. The Chinese /cust folder contents and Global ROM are incompatible with themselves, hence why without flashing the fix and selecting China as the device's region during setup we are greeted with a bootloop. I haven't dug deep enough into the fix zip to tell you exactly what is inside of it, but it defines the servers used for OTAs and such. What flashing this fix does is basically changing your device's region from Chinese to Global, but this is only my understanding of it so correct me if I'm wrong ;)
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] martepato:
Yes you can, works on those too
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] PITTAR:
Someone tried root for this rom?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] carburano:
Yes also Android p preview

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Puksom:
Did it boot the android preview?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] MacLaughlin:
Could someone who actually has installed the global rom tell me if this one has more languages then English and Chinese stuff?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] teddy74eva:
Yes, it has all the usual Android languages. It's the main purpose of a Global ROM to have them.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] mouse100:

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Puksom:
And also bootable?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] MacLaughlin:
I'm not able to start the global rom. It keeps restarting to TWRP. I used the exact guide with region fix. The result is still the same.

Okay after the fifth try it boots
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bill Power:
Saw it too. Maybe is there only one Rom from now on? I'm tempted to try to install it.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Flatric:
Not very likely since global rom has google playstore and playservices and they are illegal in china
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] limestar:
I wish they would lost the Global fastboot ROM for the 2S. I really want to run the official build with locked bootloader!
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] dev.erossi:
Was that fixed cust content extracted from a Mix 2S running "officially" installed Global ROM, or is it the same for every Xiaomi model?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] gloops100:
Thank you for this tuto !

Do you receive OTA update ?

bootloader is still unlocked ?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] TheInfiniteAndroid:
If this is official firmware how come you need TWRP which is usually for custom ROMs, and also a region fix?? I'm not saying it isn't legit/offical.. just wondering.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Flatric:
If you update your device with an OTA update it just downloads it, boots in the stock recovery and flashes the update, same you do now with TWRP manually. You need the region fix because it's made for HongKong devices
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] TheInfiniteAndroid:
I've ordered a Mi Mix 2s that comes with the Chinese ROM but I'm in the UK and need global firmware, so would I flash this then the region fix and then have a full stock global ROM?, Would I still get OTA's?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bill Power:
I believe if you're waiting for your phone it is better to wait a bit more for the official full Global Rom. It cannot be far from release.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Kemipso:
Just to confirm - the Italian's gentleman guide to flashing your phone with the new global ROM found above in this thread worked fine.

I downloaded all the files directly from the guide, and there's no wrong link (twrp polaris, adb etc.)

There's nothing special to report once it's flashed - it works just fine, with all the convenient google apps.
[Amazfit] krolch:
Hi there,

I'm quite new to the BIP and my focus in currently on the notification functionality. I have tools & amazfit running for handing notifications over to the BIP. However, I have observed some strange behaviour and need your assistance or at least info, whether you are experiencing the same:

1.) In some cases, whatsapp notifications are delivered multiple times to the BIP. This means, after notification A was delivered to the watch (and not read/deleted on the phone) and a second whatsapp message comes in, the watch does not get a notification on the new message content, but the one delivered before. It somehow seems that tools & amazfit does some wrong parsing of whatsapp notifications (when there are unread messages on the phone)

2.) The "Missed Notifications" feature doesnt work for me. Messages coming in during a connection-loss are not delivered to the watch after reconnect (checked this for text and whatsapp messages)

I did a fresh reinstall on mifit and tools&amazfit. All are exempted from battery saver. Did not solve above issues.

Phone OS is lineage 14.1 (7.1.2) / Samsung Galaxy St

BIP, Mifit and tools&amazfit are up-to-date.

Best regards, Ulrich
[Amazfit] elot01:
Hello,

I had the same problem with other apps, but not all (mainly Calendar)

This weekend i saw a new version with an extra option (per app setting) to not show double notifications.

And today i have had not one double notification, so that works.

Just open N&A app, click on the menu button (3 lines top left).

In the top, you will see something about a new update. Click on it to download and install.

Those days are gone when decompiling and recompiling helped us add some cool features to an app. Anti tamper checks have gone to the root of an apk. Please share your experience or help budding devs as me to crack down on anti tampering checks. Clever apps do not use the typical signature checks as they are too easy to hook. Their logic is much more deeper and sophisticated...but at the end of the day..all do the same thing..check if something is equal to something. We need to leverage that.

[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] CsnCaio:
Hello, guys

Wanting to expand the memory capacity of my Zenfone 3 max (model zc520tl) I've downgrade this to Android 6 because in Android 6 we can use the SD Card as a internal storage and in 7 we can't.

But, when I did this a huge problem happened: The phone can't recognize my SIM Card!

I've searched a lot and in ZenTalks I've found an Asus Moderator telling that what we need to do is update de firware to the latest version (and it's make sense, cause in Android 7 the SIM was working fine.)

So, now is the big problem that I can't solve by myself: I can't update my phone and I tryed so many ways ...

Look, I had downloaded the latest version in ASUS Support site, move this zip to my internal storage, clicked in "prepare to update" and when it reboot to recovery mode, an error saying a think like "This update is for xxx and this device is with MRA58k".

I had downloaded a lot of stock roms for android 7 and it always abort the update in recovery too.

What I want is just solve my problem with SIM Card. If there is a way to solve this on Android 6, please, tell me because it's better then upgrade to android 7 and can't expand my internal storage.

But, if the way is update to android 7, please help me to do this because I can't do this.

Thank's Allot,

Best Regards

[MENTION=4418651]treyweez11[/MENTION], I also get error 7. Probably just doesn't like our TWRP or something. That happens. I removed the assert lines in the updater script and it flashed okay. Testing ROM now.

[MENTION=7940080]ruturajjena[/MENTION], that child-like reaction of yours is unacceptable. You could've matched respect with respect but chose the low road. For something so minor. He didn't say anything about you nor the ROM (other than error 7. Never heard of it before?).

How are you going to handle all the questions, requests, complaints, incomplete bug reports, or posts that seem to question your skills because something doesn't work for them.

Battery sucks. Your fault.

Laggy. Your fault.

Poor signal. Your fault.

Usw.

I hope you don't plan to handle those with insults.

On to business. XenonHD has always been a cool ROM. One of my faves during the LP and MM days. Kind of skipped N.

I see that it is LOS-based this time around. It's not weighted down with a ton of features or customization which might please some folks.

VoLTE is there. Nova is default launcher. Nice.

The Browser Installer is the coolest thing. Haven't seen that on any ROMs I've used so far. There are times when I just don't like what comes with a ROM. This tool should be the norm.

Have to wait 'til later to give it a full workout with gapps and root. BTW, it seems to have LineageSU but for ADB only.

[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] luisro:
Greetings, I have a Project Fi Android One X4. Two days ago I went back to Project Fi Oreo stock after being rooted in order to receive the OTA. I received the January, February, and March security updates. But once I attempt to get the April one with 8.1, the system says I am up to date. I attempted to sideload the April OTA but got the message many get about not being able to mount. I know that these updates are not rolled out all at once, but I see many here in the forum already got it. Is there any way I can force the OTA? Thanks in advance for the help!
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] jfalls63:
I'm pretty much in the same boat. I had to manually flash the full 8.0 firmware after being stuck on Dec security update. Received Jan, Feb and March updates OTA without a problem. Got notification that 8.1 April was available. Phone would download the OTA but fail halfway through the installation. Did this about a dozen times. Now phone says up to date but still on March 8.0.

Probably have to wait for the full firmware file to be released and manually flash again. Sucks. Never could get ADB sideload or update from SD card to work either.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] johnjingle:
Same issue for me. The ADB sideload/SD card problem doesn't make sense.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] ptn107:
Same here. OTA update fails during step 3. Side loading doesn't work. I reflashed 8.0 and took all three security updates again just fine. Now I'm not even offered the OTA for 8.1.

I have a theory that it was pulled due to errors.
