so many threads about this, so many...too many.:( over and over again....nobody bother to search, first post-first thread...damn!

now, i am calm, i am cool and nothing can make me use the politically incorrect words like noob and other not so flattering adjectives...

lagging is relative. depends what you expect. go and read reactions at the new ROMs (6-7 threads maybe), you'll see the improvements, stop believing what you "had heard"

and if you are so worried about loosing the warranty don't buy the diamond. personally i don't get it...what the rush when making a call, why use the contacts list when you have:

-smart dialing.

-favorite contacts (with pics) for the most used contacts.

btw, i bet you have over 1-200 contacts. i have 600 and over 1200 numbers i don't see any lag.

now, is that enough? can we stop this thread?

Similar with many other soft brick problems, I updated my Mate20 Pro (C800E18R1P16, Softbank, Japan) to a mismatched version LYA-L09 10.0.0.154(C432E7R15) from post https://xdaforums.com/mate-20-pro/help/lya-l09-emui-10-firmware-t4021495. However, without any luck, update failed. I got message "Your device has loaded a different operating system". I seems the emui10 rom still not ready in my region... :crying:

I have tried several solutions, but all failed.

1. tried other mismatched EMUI10 ROM (rename and w/o rename). Failed, of course.

2. tried matched EMUI9.1 ROM to rollback sys. Failed.

3. tried mismatched EMUI9.1 ROM. Failed. <- this is how i update from 9.0 to 9.1.

All this solutions are OTG style. Since my bootloader is locked, I cannot try fastboot.

I think I'm stucked here. Please help!

Thank you so much!

So you are with

EMUI10 base

EMUI cust undetermined version

EMUI preload undetermined version

At first, cust&preload just need to be at emui10 version. DC-Phoenix could help force flash cust &/or preload both to some EMUI10 any vendorcountry which would succeed.

Then in a second time, once booting to normal mode just fine, you could fix them to proper vendorcountry hicloud's cust&preload by forced patched hisuite process (proxy/dns).

I'm living in europe and I'm using S20 Ultra exynos variant, I'm planning to get S20 Ultra Korean variant to get the snapdragon 865 chip. But my questions are is it possible to debrand it? I read few articles that it has so many bloatwares, also is it possible to unlock BL and root it? My last concern is about the 5G, wonder if 5g work on my country with the Korean variant.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] tijsva:
I'm owning a SM-G981N, carrier branded phone. Regarding bloatware, there are plenty of tutorials that can be found here to get rid of the majority of bloatware. The only way to be completely bloatware/carrier info free is to change CSC and flash the unlocked rom for your device. It seems possible to do with some third party software (samkey), but I haven't done so yet.

I have OCD when it comes to bloatware and or carrier info, I can't stand the fact that something is not original samsung. I have to say that after removing bloatware, except for the bootanimations, I really don't notice that I'm on a carrier branded phone anymore. If you dig deep enough, you will always find a handful of settings/options that shows you are on a carrier phone. Besides that, no problem at all.

I can't answer your questions regarding unlocking BL or rooting, but i assume in the near future this would be possible (if not already).

For 5G, you want to check your 5G provider's data protocol. If your phone supports it, then it should work no problem. Data for your phone can be found anywhere, example: http://phonedb.net/index.php?m=devi...ultra_5g_td-lte_kr_256gb__samsung_hubble_2_5g

Good luck!

Yesterday I succesfully changed my CSC using Samkey. I've already flashed the KOO firmware of the rom prior to changing the CSC, but according to Samkey support, the firmware for these korean phones is the same. This would mean only changing CSC should debrand your phone. I managed to change CSC without any loss of data, it simply reboots afterwards and it's fully debranded!

Hi all,

Fairly new to this phone (9t) and am currently on Titanium is. Was wondering if there's a way to disable encryption as I tend to find if things go wrong you potentially lose all data and I tend to mess about with mods etc so don't want to run that risk!

Cheers!

Idk if its the right answer but u need to backup ur files on ur pc first (i suggest u mixplorer to copy them by wifi, usb is kinda slow for me) than u need to format data and flash DFE everytime when u flash a rom to boot
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] zgfg:
You need to format Data to remove encryption ONlLY if you want to install custom ROMs

For Magisk and any modding you plan to do with Magisk/root, you don't need.

Also, for the official TWRP or OrangeFox you don't need to decrypt (unless you go for custom ROMs)
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] twist3d0n3:
I'm currently on a custom ROM but when I first went through the setup process everything was decrypted, then when I booted up and went in settings, it said encrypted and going by to twrp asked for my pattern to decrypt. I'm not sure what I've missed through doing all that but as a consequence, whenever I flash an update to the ROM, I have to reflash vendor + fw just to be able to boot again... I'm worried that at some point this will **** up and screw my data up.

So say for example if I set everything up from scratch again, what process should I follow? I'm using the Italian guys' twrp atm (sorry forget his username!) So is there a different twrp I should use instead or is there anything else I need to flash/do to avoid encryption happening on first boot?

Hi all,

I just ordered a Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro from an online shop in my country, Bulgaria.

It turns out it is the CN version with Dual SIM but with Global software installed on it, whatever this means.

I have thus a few questions:

- Will I have regular updated of the OS in this case?

- Will the phone be compatible with all the LTE / 5G bands in all Europe (it is important that it works everywhere because I travel a lot)?

- Will all the functions work properly?

Thank you in advance!
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro  Questions & Answers] MacGuy2006:
If they misrepresented this as the Global version, then return it and get the real thing. There is no guarantee that secure apps will work or continue to work and I believe that the 5G antenna is different on the Chinese version (but I might be wrong).

They said it's the Chinese version with the Global software. My main concern is exactly the antena and eventually the OS updates...
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro  Questions & Answers] james1089:
I don't know how it has global software, if you keep it you can only unlock the bootloader if they didn't already do it and relock it. Worrying too say the least, I have Chinese version with EU ROM installed but I did that myself, I heard 5g working fine in EU I haven't been anywhere I can test with the lockdown. It's possible they have left it unlocked would be better if you can do it with your own account.

Global v CN

I have researched this in depth as some of the specs are different on different websites selling it. From what I've seen, the CN dual SIM version with app store added lacks a significant Band 20 for Europe LTE, whereas the single SIM Global Version has the band 20; Xiaomi have said the Global version will be single SIM only. I believe Google Pay will not work on the CN version: you can check the different specs out at wonda mobile a Hong Kong seller. I believe it is possible to flash the EU ROM down the line but haven't come across a method to follow.

I order these all the time, this the Chinese rom with Google apps sideloaded more than likely. I'm not entirely sure if there is even a global rom available yet. That being said, your software will be one of those two options. More then likely, the former. The hardware will be Chinese, so 5G will not be supported here in the USA, just 4G LTE and not all bands at that.

You will get the MIUI updates, but not the Google updates. This is solved rather easily though by installing rom from Xiaomi.eu. These ROMs are installed using TWRP and are updated weekly with MIUI, as well as, Google updates.

Thanks in advanced! :)
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
No you won't lose data. That's the whole point of the keep data option. However it is highly recommended to do the 'clean all' option when changing regions. Backup all data first and be prepared to flash again with 'clean all', should you have any issues after trying the keep data option first.

Hi, mate thanks for your reply! Apologies for such a late reply been completely under the pump with uni crossed my mind I made this thread. Any idea if the "Keep data" option locks the bootloader? I've got an unlocked bootloader and don't want to accidentally lock it bricking my phone

Thanks heaps man! :)
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
I've never tried the keep data option, but it is not supposed to lock the bootloader. I assume it will do exactly what it says on the tin.

In theory you can lock the bootloader safely when cross flashing between EEA and global ROMs and phones. So you won't brick the phone if it does lock.
