Seriously? Can't root with Magisk on global? Xiaomi and its bull****... Will they ever stop?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] devang98:
this only get's installed via twrp , I tried using the zip to update however did not work
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] simonsmh:
Well, that depends. The verify option was written to the kernel so it should be modified in some way. at arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/sdm845.dtsi L506.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] pancomido:
I'm not a dev, not to any extent. So I don't really know what that means...
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] tarek619:
Two questions (sorry for noob questions)

1. Does this come with Gapps or will I have to get this separately?

2. What will be the difference between this and the official global rom? I havn't found dates on that yet, I suspect it might be a while and would like to know the upside/downside to getting this
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bill Power:
1- It comes with it.

2- The official Global ROM you won't need to do all this steps to flash just this: http://en.miui.com/a-232.html . The Official will not need to keep you bootloader unlocked in order to keep the ROM working.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] tarek619:
I'm assuming that rom, although labeled "Official" in the "how to guide", is still not available, correct?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bill Power:
Correct. This ROM comes with devices sold in HK. It is not meant to be installed in other devices like Chinese, for that we have to keep waiting Xiaomi to release in their website. I hope this time won't be that far since there is quite sometime the ROM is beta testing.

Look the result if you flash this ROM and lock the bootloader back: http://en.miui.com/thread-2657317-1-1.html
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] skw5115:
Not sure if anyone wants to test, but apparently there's a fastboot link up here: http://tw.miui.com/download-28.html#68 and a user over on en.miui.com reported that it installed successfully and booted: http://en.miui.com/thread-2211313-3-1.html
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] ruicc:
But, people are installing the 9.5.18.0 and not the 9.5.4.0...

If we just want to install the 9.5.4.0, which steps are necessary?

The install procedure is the same? Can it be install with updater? Is it needed to install the region patch?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bill Power:
The only good thing about 9.5.4 is that you can flash it through Mi Flash, nothing more. You still have to keep the bootloader unlocked and to install 9.5.18 you need TWRP otherwise you get an error message. If you're not in a hurry and want to lock the bootloader back after flash then you're stuck to Chinese Rom for the moment.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] underlines:
Guys don't ask me how, but I simply flashed global 9.5.18.0 + magisk and it works. I used the unofficial twrp that can decrypt storage.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] simonsmh:
Do you encrypted your data slot? Please check it again.

The reason why we asked you how is that you are the only one who installed magisk on global rom successfully.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] underlines:
What do you mean by encrypted your data slot? Locked my bootloader? No I am unlocked and have no plan to lock later on.

I never flashed dm-verity & encryption disabler. I just booted into unofficial twrp, flashed global 9.5.18.0, flashed the itlaian region fix. Tuen booted and set up MIUI. Used it for 1 hour. Then booted into unofficial twrp with decryption working, entered my lockscreen pssword in twrp, flashed magisk and it booted. Use it for 24h now.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] underlines:
Here is the proof
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] simonsmh:
I followed your steps but still not working.

1. flash V9.5.4 fastboot rom

2. boot twrp & flash V9.5.18 rom

3. reboot mix 2s, works properly and have a little personal setup.

4. boot twrp & flash Magisk v16.4

5. reboot and boot loop, stuck at official recovery.

I don't know what's wrong with the flashing process. The magisk shows that my phone is encrypted and using AVB 1.0 if that matters.

0. flash V9.5.18 stock kernel to get it boot up. Still waiting for a useful guide to flash magisk.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] underlines:
damn. i start two wonder how i managed to do this. i did it at 5AM in the morning and i feel i may forgot some additional step. in that night i bricked my phone at least 3 times and did various things. but i ended up having Globa V9.5.18 + Magisk v16.4 working, you can see it in my screenshots. I really try to remember if I did anything additionally. The only thing I remember that are different from your steps:

- I installed V9.5.18 and used it for 1 hour

- i used the modified unofficial twrp that has decryption functionality

- I didn't flash twrp, i only booted into twrp

Hmm I hate myself for not immediately keeping note of the exact steps I did. :-/
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] simonsmh:
A1. I installed V9.5.18 and used it for 45 minutes.

A2. Same recovery, v2 version right?

A3. Me too.

Well, would you please extract your current kernel and upload it please?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] limestar:
I wonder if you can lock bootloader with this build....
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] underlines:
can you tell me how i can do this? I guess in TWRP i have to do backup a particular partition, i guess the bootloader, and then upload it, right?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] simonsmh:
Yes, the boot partition.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Flatric:
Miui 10 is announced for the 31. May. Maybe this is why we don't have a global fastboot Rom for now. Could be possible that they don't want to put any work in the miui 9 global rom because miui 10 is ready in one week...
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bill Power:
That's is really something to consider Flatric. This can explain all this time without the release of a Global Rom. I'll wait for May 31 then.

You can't. Right now there is no way to flash a different ROM from the one it comes with the device and keep the bootloader locked.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] joemossjr:
Woops
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] ruicc:
Thanks, Bill....Installed last night 9.5.4.0, and so far so good :)

What's the main differences between these 2versions?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] joemossjr:
Magisk working pretty good here on global
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] simonsmh:
But how?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] joemossjr:
Just flashed with twrp that's it
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bill Power:
I don't know for sure Ruicc. Probably stability and optimization. :rolleyes:
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] underlines:

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] ruicc:
Ok, but for now, i don't know if i should flash TWRP...and i don't know if i flash it, the phone will boot.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bill Power:
If you follow the steps correctly it seems there is no risk updating. The only way to get it wrong is if you try to lock the bootloader back, but you know that you can't do. It seems there is little gain in updating beyond to be in the "latest version". I'd suggest you to stick with it till May 31 because Xiaomi will probably release the Rom by then along MIUI 10.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] naraik-l:
Just confirming that the Global fastboot image (9.5.4.0) from the Taiwan MIUI website is working fine on my originally China ROM 8GB model, even after re-locking the bootloader :)
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bill Power:
That's is some very good news Naraik. Care to tell if you locked using ADB after flashing or through Mi Flash during the procedure? If i can lock the bootloader using this 9.5.4, i'll flash this rom.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] teddy74eva:
Did you try any of the previous ROMs (like the leaked v9.5.4.0 or v9.5.18.0) with locking the bootloader after flashing? Were they working? If the one from Taiwanese site works with locked bl on China devices it will be huge news indeed.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] naraik-l:
Yep, I just used the Mi Flash "clean all and lock" option.

If that doesn't work directly, try flashing the P preview fastboot image first (but keep the bootloader unlocked) since that's what I had before flashing to global (not sure if it makes any difference though, as Mi Flash should wipe everything anyway).

Nope - My phone shipped with v9.5.10.0 China, then updated to v9.5.15.0 with OTA; after unlocking I flashed the P preview which I played around with for a few days then flashed the TW v9.5.4.0 and re-locked all through Mi Flash.

EDIT: Just to clarify, I did unlock my bootloader first, then relocked after flashing to Global.

I have attached a screenshot for proof:
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] MaluNoPeleke:
What is the advantage to lock it again?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] underlines:
With a locked bootloader and not having the device password the following things should theoretically impossible:

flashing ROMs

access files on the storage

factory reset the device

Therefore a device with a locked bootloader and a strong lockscreen password should be very safe in the event of being stolen. The person could not resell a working device and has no chance to reset it or flash a new ROM onto it or access your data.

Unfortunately many manufacturers built in features that circumvent this system in an event of emergency.

This creates a security hole and basically makes the whole idea useless. Since it's being widely reported, manufacturers start to change hopefully:

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] ruicc:
Ok, i'll take your advice...for now i'm using 9.5.4.0 and i'm very pleased with this version, even with stock recovery.

I think i'll wait for a more stable TWRP, release, because there are some issues with the current one.

It would be nice if we could root this phone without use a recovery to do that.

---------- Post added at 09:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:41 PM ----------

Good news...i'm also on V9.5.4.0, but didn't lock the bootloader
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bill Power:
Same here, flashed this rom today and it was fine. I'll keep the bootloader unlocked until the release of the "final" Rom by Xiaomi.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
9.5.19.0 exists now, but I don't have a link.

If anyone wants to brute force 10 hex digits for the checksum, you could probably find the URL within a few weeks :P
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] ruicc:
It's a fastboot rom or OTA rom?

Tried to google it, but nothing came out...
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
There's no public information about it. But it exists. Surely both fastboot and OTA versions exist, but the fastboot one would be harder to find.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bill Power:
Interesting, maybe is it possible to be the one coming with MIUI 10?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Flatric:
I don't know how miui numbers their versions but pretty sure they would make it 10.... :D
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
Yeah, it's definitely not MIUI 10. It's still MIUI 9.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bill Power:
Well, that's strange because according to GSMarena MIUI 10 will released by May 31: https://www.gsmarena.com/miui_10_official_arrive_may_31-news-31230.php

It does not make sense to release a much delayed ROM for Mi Mix 2S without beign at this version.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] ruicc:
My thoughts too...But MIUI 10 isn't based on Oreo 8.1?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] MallocVoidstar:
MIUI doesn't follow Android versions, MIUI 9 is based from Android 4.4 - 8.1 AFAIK. It depends on the specific phone.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] wappla1911:

I have this version and successfully unlocked bootloader and installed the Global 9.5.4 ROM (phone originally had Chinese ROM) using MiFlash, but I'm afraid to try to lock the bootloader back given the reports of bricking.

The way to install this global rom from the official website is to first

1. unlock bootloader using xiaomi unlocker (in fastboot mode)

2. use fastboot.exe to flash twrp onto the mix 2s (in fastboot mode)

3. use twrp to flash the global rom and the region fix (without which, it'll not work) (in TWRP recovery)

4. relock the bootloader using fastboot.exe (in fastboot mode)

TWRP is replaced by mi recovery. Hopefully OTA works.

Greetings,

Has anyone on Fi Project updated to the May Security with the

Google provided "Fi Carriers" firmware? And if yes, anything different

than the regular firmware for regular Security Update?

Thank you.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] AndrasLOHF:
If you have access to a PC, just ADB sideload it. I've been on Fi for years and their update schedule is atrocious considering that this is Google's own phone service. I've gone as long as 6 weeks past an update release before it hit my phone through OTA. In any case, the only thing they specify carriers on the versions is for optimized radios for the specified carrier.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] samteeee:
Thanks for the reply.

Have you updated to this one yet, for May? Or just the regular Unlocked Firmware?!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] AndrasLOHF:
I sideloaded the one labeled Fi Carriers.
