👾 [CLEAN] Install Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite STOCK ROM: 🧵

(Instructions based windows)

Originally, I had made this guide, gathering information from various places, and putting it together here in the guide, while following it to reset my mi A2 Lite to original settings. This means it is proven to work. ;)

Requiremets:

* Bootloader must be Unlocked. 🔓 (🩲)

🐣 Steps ahead assumes know-how-to-use ADB-fastboot.

Can be done through ADB-fastboot: "fastboot oem unlock" , but ...

💡 search & study about it before as it brings critical changes,

⚠️ and additionally 'oem unlock' will

normally

wipe all data on your device.

🎓 although "platform-tools" in the next steps includes this ADB-fastboot and uses its function(s).

⬇️ Device

Drivers

for Windows needed. (Qualcom is the xiaomi's recomended, but Google's general driver works too.)

* If PC already "sees" the Phone Device through ADB then you don't need to install latest driver.

( Source: https://gsmusbdriver.com/wp-content/uploads/Qualcomm_USB_Driver_v1.0.zip ~10MB

includes "Qualcomm_USB_Driver_V1.0.exe" installer,

so I don't need to guide how to point .inf file through Device manager to manual update driver. 🧻

At any cases you need to Restart Computer for take effect installed driver, If there were not already installed. )

⬇️ Download the latest "platform-tools" .zip for Windows.

Was a xiaomi Mi A2 Lite (daisy) "CLEAN" install . android One/ 10/ Q, stock ROM

Don't forget to delete

C:\platform-tools

folder as it weights 3.14GB and don't needed any more. 💩 🪠

* Maybe you check the "platform-tools" for regulary use. (ie pull/push files or flash, install img, apk, zip etc.)

* maybe yet, want to TWRP, Magisk, root + OpenGapps with SafetyPass and other magi(s)k modules...
