So this guide was written by [MENTION=6383259]DeathByArmadillo[/MENTION] who partly copied it from user "Danmue" from an old post. Anyway, it works.

Tested on Mi Note 10 with Global rom.

Just re-posted it in it's own thread because the information was a bit scattered among the threads.

What you will need:

- An unlocked phone (duh). It can take 3 days, a week, or more to get your phone unlocked. So I recommend starting the process as soon as you get the phone.

- A full backup of your phone as this will wipe it clean. Unlocking ALSO wipes your phone. You can use Google One (as far as I know) to backup most stuff. I usually use Super Backup & Restore to back up all contacts, calendars, etc. Then I copy over ALL my folders to my PC - except "Android" as it's just usually junk/data files for apps that I can't copy back anyway. Last I use Google One to also do a full backup. As far as I know - this is what you can do without root.

- Xiaomi.EU stable OR dev branch: https://xdaforums.com/mi-note-10/how-to/rom-miui-11-xiaomi-eu-t4008225 || https://xdaforums.com/mi-note-10/how-to/rom-miui-11-xiaomi-eu-t4011409

- Fastboot/adb/Android SDK tools installation. https://developer.android.com/studio (Scroll down for "Command line tools").

Yes, you need the two recoveries. At least I needed both.

What we do, notes:

- I had issues with OrangeFox while I was using EEA firmware (EU). After flashing Global firmware on my phone the battery issues went away, and I was able to use OrangeFox after.

- TWRP can be a bit non-responsive, like for me it was at the unlock screen. For some reason after a few tries I managed to make my inputs work. Just kept touching the screen lol.

Steps:

- Boot your phone in fastboot mode. (Turn it off; Then hold VOLUME_DOWN and Power. it should display this weird looking thing with an ushanka saying FASTBOOT MODE.)

- Open command prompt and go to the Android SDK tools folder where you can find "fastboot.exe".

- Type the following:

fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-0-tucana-mauronofrio.img

- TWRP will boot up now. Unlock your device as normal and it should show up in Windows as a drive.

Copy over the

OrangeFox-Unofficial-tucana-20191120.zip

file.

- Go into Install on your phone and pick the OrangeFox zip file you just copied over.

Once done, just go Back and Reboot and Recovery.

- OrangeFox should boot up. Unlock once again.

- Go into Partition management, tap Data, and tap Format. Not wipe, FORMAT.

(if you get an error reboot to recovery and try again)

- Go Back, Reboot, Recovery.

- Copy the Xiaomi.EU rom you want to the phone. I used Stable.

- Use Install within OrangeFox to install the rom.

- Go back. Reboot into Recovery. Once again.

- Format data partition. NOT wipe. Format.

- Finally, reboot to system.

Thanks for taking the time to order it, good job :D
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] DeathByArmadillo:
Though NOW the issue is that the recovery (either TWRP or Orange Fox) won't work with touch, which is a bit of a pain.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] h8Aramex:
Sorry my emails didn't arrive. Interesting, it works for me. Followed the steps 100%, using Mi Note 10 Global rom. I just booted up Orange Fox after turning off my phone and it works just fine. I seriously wonder what can kill recovery input... sounds like such a super weird bug.

I did boot TWRP (mauronofrio's) and then installed OrangeFox from there. Maybe that's the key.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] DeathByArmadillo:
Yeah, possibly that, no clue. Don't get me wrong, it's not a biggie, as I always have an OTG mouse setup just in case that kind of stuff happens, just weird. On the whole that phone is a bit of an odd duck, not sure I'm going to stick to it, too much inconsistencies, both hardware and software.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] h8Aramex:
Yea I tried to find blobs today for 730g but there is nothing on the internet (yet?).

I mean, the phone works for me - if they just fix the missing "Ignore Do Not Disturb" option, I am golden...
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] atrufinibr:
flashed orangefox through twrp, touch doesnt work at all. But it worked on the first time, flashed MIROOM. Maybe it is related to the currently installed rom.

Edit: Flashed TWRP from fastboot and touch is working again. Just to be sure, reflashed orangefox and it didn't work again... I'll stick to TWRP, although I dont know if it is a problem with TWRP but i can't flash GSI roms
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mizuwari:
Hello,

Sorry for my Bad english.

with the stable rom 11.0.7, the orange fox touch works perfectly.

but with development roms, touch does not work. tested with 20.1.9 and 20.1.15.

Touch work with flashed twrp from fastboot

Can we just install Global Rom in the update option under settings ?

I mean, without needing to unlock the bootloader ?

anyone with this rom experiencing huge battery drain ?
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] WaldenGaming:
I get big battery drain on official MIUI Global 11.0.13. Are you running Miui EU or global rom?

Miui.EU (Based on china rom) https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/miui-11-0-stable-release.52628/

Some reported that their battery issue went away after flashing miui.eu

---------- Post added at 10:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:41 AM ----------

For flashing recoveries as twrp, I think the bootloader always needs to be unlocked.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] H-Emmanuel:
There is a MIUI Global 11.0.13? The latest I see is 1.0.7?

I'm looking to update for improved camera speed etc.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] tarzanabi:
First timer on Global Rom, now o EU Beta. Followed instructions, nothing else needed. Thanks a lot! (also, having an usb mouse just in case paid off)
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] sigma119:
I am using one from xiaomi.eu. Also ive experienced this rom to shutting down randomly. For a week period it happened twice.

Well, that's better than battery drain :D I hope android 10 with miui will be flawless:fingers-crossed:

I followed this guide and successfully got 20.2.20 v2 up and running. I came from a Global 11.0.07 Note 10 Pro.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] albertoduqe:
Hi everyone and thanks for the guide!

I followed it and after formatting data on orangefox, rebooted to recovery, opened on that screen that asks to swipe to allow modifications... Thing is: I couldn't swipe, it was non responsive... But I could tap the back arrow and all other options were accessible. Although of course system partition was read only or unmounted or whatever...

I formatted data again but same thing.

Decided to go back to mauro's twrp. Flashed it through fastboot but the fastboot boot recovery... command gave me some error (sorry didn't copy or remember the line). Trying to get to recovery via buttons rebooted to fastboot... So yeah I kind of soft bricked it just like that LOL

Of course I flashed stock (latest global miui) with the flashing tool and all is back to normal.

But yeah I want custom recovery and xiaomi.eu and to try some gsi and all that so... Anybody had some similar issues? Any ideas?

I will try again but doing it all with twrp, not orange fox...

Why using that one recovery and not twrp, by the way?

Thanks!
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] albertoduqe:
Sooooo to answer myself LOL ... First time I didn't completely follow the guide. So went back to global, followed the guide step by step, worked: xiaomi.eu stable booted, all seemed ok.

But of course who wants stable when android 10 is up and running in beta? So went back to recovery, it worked, and decided to first try and flash an older beta build, still on android 9, just in case. Dirty flashed, booted, no problems.

Then I went back to recovery and touch was utterly gone. Not working. I never used an otg mouse and didn't feel like setting that up. Instead I thought man TWRP has always worked no problem, why not on this bloody device? So yeah went to fastboot, flashed Mauro's twrp, booted on it, copied latest xiaomi.eu, flashed it, rebooted to recovery, formatted data, rebooted to system... worked...

One funny thing I do not understand at all: now I have LR Team's twrp, not mauro's... So what the ****? Does it get installed with xiaomi.eu's package? Nobody else had this happenning??

One more thing: I hope with next update I do not need to format data after flashing the rom, it is a real pain in the ass to not be able to dirty flash :)

And thanks again for the guide folks!
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] giannisgr41:
The LR TWRP is inside thw package so it is intalled automatically.dont worry.next time make a dirty flash

I have a Mi Note 10 and install miui.eu the model name has changed Mi CC9 Pro, It's normal?
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Enricosteph:
Yes that's normal because eu ROM is based on China Beta/stable and in China this phone has an different name
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] albertoduqe:
I cannot manage to install any weekly build. Follow the guide to install xiaomi.eu stable, no problems.

With a beta build, fail. After installing the rom, reboot to recovery loads LR Team recovery, I guess the partition gets overwritten buy the rom's scripts. Once there, if I wipe data and reboot as the guide says, it gets stuck for ever in the ugly CC9 logo... And if I try to flash OrangeFox it reboots into fastboot mode and back to stage zero...

So screw this whole thing for now. I hate this **** encryption or vmeta bloody stuff problems...
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] imoaix:
stable is android 9, to install the beta you need the latest recovery compatible with adrodi 10

https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=50678

to change from android 9 to 10 and eliminate encryption it is necessary to format data

these are the steps to install:

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

fastboot oem reboot-recovery

Format Data

reboot recovery

wipe default reset

install rom

wipe cache y dalvik

reboot recovery

reboot system

[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Outofsystem90:
Hi at all, i wanna try this guide but i have a problem:

I start by saying that so far I have owned and unlocked at least 5 Xiaomi devices, so a little experience I think I have accumulated.

Today I wanted to unlock the bootloader of my Mi Note 10. I arm myself with patience, download everything i need (miunlock, miflash for the drivers).

Usb debugging activated

OEM release activated

I add Account on Mi unlock

I start miunlock

I put the smartphone in fastboot

The pc does not detect it --- Nothing, no sound and miunlock stuck on "connect device".

I open Adb (always present on the PC), I restart the device, I connect to the PC, it is recognized

Adb Devices --- ok, it is recognized

adb reboot bootloader --- ok it is restarted in fastboot

fastboot device --- Nothing! no sound of reconnection and remains stuck on Waiting Device (I open the device manager of Win 10 and if I disconnect / reattach it does not even go the typical update of the connected devices)

I doubt whether the cable ... I try 4 cables but nothing

I doubt whether the USB port ... I try them all but nothing

I doubt both the pc ... I try to landline, but nothing, same problem

I doubt whether Win 10 ... I brush up on the old pc with win 7, but nothing

I doubt whether I am the problem ... I resume the Redmi Note 7, the same procedure and in a moment everything went.

In short, it seems that from fastboot no signal arrives to the pc, I can't understand if I skipped some new passage or if it is a problem of the device, so I ask you if you have any suggestions to meet me.

I thank you in advance for the attention and help you will offer !!!

whats the reason to go to EU rom from Global rom?
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] searchworlds:
Does Xiaomi.eu rom has stock MIUI dialer with call recording?
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] DeathByArmadillo:
Glad to say I'm now on the MIUI 12 EU beta, and it still works like a charm, the second format is really the charm :D
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] veimus:
Yes.

But on global ROM, CallRecorder by skvalex was working for me (before I unlocked bootloader), also I'm using it on xiaomi.eu
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] bbmadzky:
Hi! There were times when trying to reboot to recovery after installing the rom, screen just displays black. Force restart gives me fastboot even when I try to boot to recovery. A stock rom flash helps me go back to square one. What did I go wrong? It happened several times already.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] MemoBustamante:
I don't understand, I flash the EU ROM and I still have the Google call dialer and no call recording
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] veimus:
There is difference in ROM EU ROM it's with Google Dialer and no stock call recorder (you can use external app to record calls), but xiaomi.eu ROM have stock MIUI Dialer and stock call recorder (its in dialer options to record all calls) (you need unlock bootloader to flash xiaomi.eu ROM)

my bootloader is unlocked, Thank you for answering so quickly

Thank you so much for this detailed guide

I read the thread and I have a few questions before testing this out:

(Sorry for this much of answers but I think this will be helpful for me and everyone who reads this thread)

1- Does this guide work on the new MIUI 12.5?

2- I'm on 12.5.3 Global and The latest EU is 12.5.1 , is that considered a downgrade that will brick my device? Because I heard people are not having luck with downgrades

3- What is the ROM used? Is it a stock EU that I can download from any xiaomi firmware source? Or is it a custom thing

I mean can I just go to xiaomifirmwareupdater and download the EEA version (It's same as the EU ROM right?)

4-I saw people complaining about non responsive touch, does that happen only in recovery? Or is it in the System?

5- Is it better if I only fastboot the EU rom and then flash the custom Recovery? And if not, what version of the firmware should I download, there's a recovery version and a fastboot version (larger than the recovery one)

6- Let's say I got a stable recovery up and running, if a new version is released, can I just download the recovery zip of the rom and dirty flash it to update? Or do I download the OTA update zip and dirty flash it, how do I update in the future without losing my data

7- There is a lot of new recoveries for tucana/Mi Note 10 here on xda, OrangeFox and TWRP included, can we use the new recoveries instead the ones linked in the main post?

I hope that the OP is still here to answer and even if not, I hope that anyone who tried something to participate and answer from his experience

Thanks all!

So, I'm interested in a smartwatch mostly for fitness tracking, but my problem is sweat resistance.

I want to buy the stratos but I have heard the new t rex can also fitness track, and be washed easily since it's durable bit. can it sync with Strava though?

My question is which one? Amazfit stratos or T rex? Is the stratos waterproof? How to clean it?

I'm also going to be in the military, should I just buy a g shock apart from a smartwatch or the t rex can do the job?

I want to get the best watch I can.

And if the stratos, does the stratos 3 worth the 50$ more than the 2?

So many questions, wanted to cover them all.

Would love to get some help. Thanks!
[Amazfit] xiaomi-1:
Leave out the Stratos 3. Distance, speed and hearth rate are all bad. Speed is very (very very) slow to adjust to your actual speed and the heart rate of my couch is 71 BPM. Heart beat indicates a constant 118Bpm when i'm not wearing it. It won't pair with a Bluetooth 4.0 heart rate belt (and doesn't support ANT+)

However GPS fix is fast and the time is spot on :rolleyes:

[Amazfit] MoronsHater:
Don't recommend to buy any of Amazfit smart watch. Better is to choose Samsung's smart watch:

1. Much more better devices

2. Have all features and options which is mentioned, for example: Verge from Amazfit voice assistant is not support all regions and countries, so you will spend money without all features which is in specifications. Samsung giving all what is mentioned in specifications. Believe me to buy Amazfit smart watch is worst decision.

3. Battery of Samsung is related to Amazfit smart watches, also Samsung doing much less software mistakes, bugs as Amazfit.

4. Samsung Health app for Android is much more better as Amazfit. Samsung have even calories counting from wood which you eating, Amazfit counting only by yours activity.

I bought Verge from 2019 February and I understand that I did very big mistake. I thought to buy new Xioami smartphone, but after wearing of Amazfit Verge watch, I understand I have to run away from this company as faster as I can. Device is without advertised features, every update battery draining much more faster as was first day without update. Every update doing mistakes and bugs. Support is terrible. I don't recommend to buy any of watches from Amazfit. By the way I bought now Samsung smartphone in which health app is very impressive, compare to Samsung app Amazfit app is like game for children very poor.
[Amazfit] wrick17:
T-Rex should be a good option. I've been using Amazfit watches for a while now, I've not faced any issues. People have had gps issues, but t-rex seems to have solved them. It's very durable and battery life will be much better than any samsung or android wear watches. My bip and gtr has never let me down.

Although you might want to check first if you're allowed smart watches in the military.
[Amazfit] gbjack:
I have the stratos 3 and it measurements it took are very very very close to my Bryton cycling computer, paired with heart rate monitor.

You have to wear it reasonably tight to get a good readings.
[Amazfit] MoronsHater:
If you don't see it, it doesn't mean there are not any issues. With Verge was a lot of issues with double tap, weather (twice chines named cities), incorrect sleep, steps tracking and ect. Just one good things is heartrate measure, which is very good in this device. Amazfit support is like talking with wall or they are dumb or just pretending like they are, always asking one, answering different answers. I live in Europe and still havn't many features like: Voice assistant, payment over watch and ect. Which was written and now is advertising as feature in this model. Ran one year I still did not got features which was promised or mentioned from this manufacturer. MY ADVICE: STAY AWAY FROM AMAZFIT. Samsung is much more better, android watches too. You can do in it watch faces which you want, costume it how do you want, much more accurate and ect. Samsung doing bugs even less compare with this China manufacturer. Don't lie to people. Amazfit devices is like crap of ****. Sorry for my language.
[Amazfit] wrick17:
While you are right on your part. No samsung or android watch gives weeks of battery life. I cant afford to keep charging my watch everyday. Charging my phone everyday is already a hassle.
[Amazfit] MoronsHater:
Which smart watches from Samsung need to charge everyday?

Samsung Watch Active 2 - https://www.samsung.com/uk/wearables/galaxy-watch-active2-4g/SM-R825FSKABTU/ (Typical Usage Time Over 60 Hours - it's more as 2 days)

Amazfit Stratos 3 - https://en.amazfit.com/stratos-3.html (Smart mode: 7 days )

What is the differnet between these times? Samsung have 4G connection, that's mean that you can go to city without phone and stay tuned into call. Amazfit havn't (in specification is not mentioned 4G), 4G so that's why battery is some days staying longest without charge.

Samsung most watches can be without charge with 5 days, the same as Amazfit. I talking about normal usage without limitation of features activated.

Verge Amazfit saying can be 5 days too, but I have to charge it every 2 - 3 days. So battery is not so good as saying Amazfit. U did not understand me. Most Android watches have much more features as Amazfit even with 4G need to charge often, but if 4G is not available battery without charge can be much more as Amazfit some watches. But quality of Samsung and most Android watches is much more better as this Chinese crap

By the way Amazfit have model with 4G too, battery need to charge more as Samsung Active 2 as I know can be alive about one day. So don't write nonsenses here that Amazfit is better, it's a crap of sh.. not a watch included worst support ever, a lot of bugs and issues in it. STAY AWAY FROM AmAZFIT BELEIVE ME. mY NEXT WATCH WILL BE Samsung, I know that as a phone too.
[Amazfit] perknite:
I've used a Galaxy S9+ paired with a Gear Sport and eventually switched to the Xiaomi Mi 9 Lite paired with the smaller Amazfit GTR. I have seen comparable performance with the following exceptions: Gear Sport has NFC, GTR doesn't, S9+ has wireless charging, Mi 9 Lite doesn't. Battery life is tremendously better on both the Mi 9 Lite and GTR. I have both Samsung devices locked away and really don't have a desire to go back to them anytime soon.

The short answer? Rather than broad dismissal of an entire brand, your mileage may vary. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
[Amazfit] danikonbrasil:
Do you actually have a T-Rex? I had 3 Amazfit smartwatches: pace, stratos 2, and now a GTR, but the GTR's GPS is terrible, take too long to fix, and its tracking is awful. Now I'm almost buying a T-Rex, but I fear the GPS could have the same GTR problem. Does anybody actually HAVE a T-Rex??
