[Redmi 9A Questions & Answers] Ingrou:
My phone (Redmi 9A) is in a hard brick state after an unsuccessful attempt to flash a custom ROM. Unfortunately, when I connect it to my computer (running Windows 11), it appears as an "unknown device" instead of a "MediaTek" device. Please advise on how to make my computer recognize the phone as a MediaTek device.

Important information :

The device was recognized as mediatek. It only stopped when I stopped the repair process. The tool I tried to repair the phone was smartphone flash tool
[Redmi 9A Questions & Answers] ZG_DEV:
1st : check if you have all drivers installed & working

2nd: boot into META mode by pressing vol.down and release when connected to pc (same as BROM but WITHOUT the vol.up button)

3rd : flash stock rom

(Note : you have to be quick because it disconnects automatically if there is no action is taken)
[Redmi 9A Questions & Answers] Ingrou:
Unfortunately, the phone immediately connects to the computer and is displayed as an unidentified device (I connect the phone and 2 seconds later I get a signal from the computer that an unidentified device has been connected). Before my failed repair attempt, these methods worked - to connect the phone, I had to press a combination of buttons, it connected and disconnected after a while (it was displayed as MediaTek).
[Redmi 9A Questions & Answers] mvikrant97:
please press and hold all 3 keys on the phone together to reset the error message.

Then it will show up as MEDIATEK DEVICE.
[Redmi 9A Questions & Answers] ZG_DEV:
Oh, yes I forgot, sometimes I miss with flashing so the device stucks on brom mode until I do this

Also @ingro press and hold all 3 keys as @mvikrant97 said,but for 10-13 seconds, then reflash your phone
[Redmi 9A Questions & Answers] Ingrou:
Thanks a lot. It works. You saved me a lot of trouble. I have one more question. Do you have any sources from where you can obtain such knowledge or is it just a practical experience?
[Redmi 9A Questions & Answers] mvikrant97:
XDA, Internet and lots of Practical Experiments.
[Redmi 9A Questions & Answers] Ingrou:
I have one more question. When I tried to use the flash tool again, the ROM started loading in red (as I expected), unfortunately it did not change the color of the loading bar to yellow, but an error popped up saying there was a memory error. After that, when I connect the phone to the computer, it detects it as an unidentified device. Unfortunately, now the three-button method doesn't work. I click three buttons at the same time for 13 seconds and then connect the phone to the computer, but unfortunately the computer immediately detects it as an unknown device. I'm surprised by this because the same method worked a few hours ago.
[Redmi 9A Questions & Answers] ZG_DEV:
Same as me !
[Redmi 9A Questions & Answers] ZG_DEV:
Did you disable "memory check" in sp flashtool options ?

Did you also disable "Check storage life" in sp flashtool options ?
[Redmi 9A Questions & Answers] Ingrou:
I did it according to the video below. Unfortunately, there was nothing there about what you're talking about.

At the 5th minute there is a pink loading bar, I didn't have it either.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] okanaltan:
Hello eveyone,

Today I contacted with EliteRoms developer @HassanMirza01 and asked him for a ROM for Zizhan devices.

Thanks to him, he did not refuse me and sent me a ROM.

As soon as the ROM arrived, I flashed it and it is great, it works flawlessly.

Let me give some information about the ROM:

Unfortunately it has no TWRP because TWRP is not yet available for Zizhan, but I especially like the Google integrations into the system and the speed. The ROM is not GSI, it is built on the last DEV ROM (V14.0.23.9.11_DEV).

One of the features I like the most is that it directly recognizes the local language, launches as a genuine global ROM and gives the impression of using a fully global phone. So far I have not encountered any bugs. Installation is very easy, just connect the device in fasboot mode to the PC and run the *bat file.

I can tell you, it was really good for our devices in a limited ROM environment.

The choice is yours of course.

[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] ZG_DEV:
Thank you for sharing us this wonderful rom !
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] okanaltan:
You're welcome :)
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] Jorry:
Great news... but where to find the ROM download?
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] Thekel82:
Okan Hocam selamlar, CN rom'undaki bildirim gecikmeleri ile ilgili bir iyileşme var mı bu rom'da?
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] okanaltan:
Hello, if you would like to install the ROM, you can reach @HassanMirza01 on Telegram. He immediately shares the link via Google Drive for a small donation. He also offers constant updates. If you follow his channel, you can benefit from weekly updates.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] okanaltan:
Greetings, I am replying in English due to the forum rules. This ROM does not have any of the notification delay problems that we had in the CN ROM. Also, when we install the ROM and restart the phone for the first time, you can open it directly in your language without any Magisk module. Because the phone is recognized as a Global Pixel phone by Google and other applications. In short, I highly recommend you to install this ROM.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] Djiban:
Hello, anyone else did install this rom ?
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] OrionBG:
Hey,

I did also. It is a very good one. Having in mind that we also do not have any alternatives that are fully working, this one is quite a good pick. Also, the developer is quite responsive to any queries/issues.

I would have preferred an AOSP-based ROM like the Pixel Experience for instance but I can live with MIUI when it is not too Chinese... You have many regions and Languages to choose from, Global apps work better, no need to put Magisk and all the patches... It works like a Xiaomi global phone now (plus some light extras in the settings)...
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] swaser1313:
Could anyone walk me through flashing this rom? I have already made a donation and have the files. I'm just very rusty on flashing anything.

Bootloader is unlocked and I have root.

Thanks
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] OrionBG:
You don't need to be rooted but it will not harm anything.

Before you begin, decide if you want to root the ROM or not.

If not, then just extract the entire archive, reboot to fastboot, connect to the PC, and then open CMD (not power shell) and start the windows install

After that it will only ask you if you want to wipe data or not (for initial install i strongly recommend you do). Wait for about 5- 10 min and done.

If you want root, then copy the boot.img from the archive to your phone, patch it with Magisk, rename the pathed img to boot.img and put back in the same place you got the original from.

After that it is the same as above.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] Ramid15@gmail.com:
Is this the premium version of elite rom with all the customization?

I am waiting for the 168 hours to unlock bootloader and do the donation.

Just wanted to confirm this is the premium version since I'm paying for it not the free version
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] swaser1313:
So if I am rooted and don't care to keep root I can just follow the first section?
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] swaser1313:
Also there is a windows installer in the provided zip? I have not looked at it yet.

Or do I run a command code?

Again sorry for my ignorance. It's been a long time
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] OrionBG:
It is just a sophisticated Batch file that runs fastboot commands flashing all the partitions basically doing almost the same as the Xiaomi stock flash tool.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] swaser1313:
Thank you.

So I use abd for cmd or cmd windows
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] OrionBG:
You open a command prompt in the folder you extracted all files and there should be one .bat file that was called something install windows...
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] swaser1313:
Got it. Thank you
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] swaser1313:
Got it up and running. Everything is great. Only problem I have is I can add widgets. Android widgets are not there. If I add a stock one when I tap the check mark to save it does nothing.

Other wise this is a solid set up.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] swaser1313:
Also every time I set up my home screen then fold the phone and unfold icons move around
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] OrionBG:
Yeah something is bugged with the widgets in the stock launcher. Looking for a working version.

On the other hand, my icons do not rearrange themselves when opening and closing ... Interesting
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] swaser1313:
Doesn't do it anymore. Seemed to only happen when I changed the amount of icons in elite custom settings.

Also was not able to get android auto to work.

Galaxy watch works so that's great.

Got any tricks or ideas to get android auto working?

Other than that and the widgets this rom runs perfect
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] Cyrax-001:
Hello

I had been one of those who who couldn't wait one day before flashing a custom rom when buying a new phone. But that had changed long ago because I started using banking apps and other apps that needed security and didn't work with custom Roms.

Now since I bought this phone I couldn't find a real workaround for the notifications' issue, which rendered my phone almost useless in many cases since I rely heavily on WhatsApp and other apps that need instant and real time notifications.

I would happily purchase the full version of this ROM but I have a couple of questions and it would be great if you help me:

1-do notifications (especially Whatsapp) work with no issues? because I read elsewhere that this ROM has the same problems when it comes to notifications like the original miui chinese rom.

2- do banking apps, PayPal and other stuff work with this rom?

3- am I able to go back to the official xiaomi Rom and lock the bootloader again?

4- is this Rom safe (concerning security and privacy)

5- how is the multi tasking experience? Since our main point of interest is the folding experience in this case. Does it allow multiple windows to be opened simultaneously? Is it smooth or buggy when doing so?

6- how's battery life?

Thanks in advance
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] OrionBG:
Hey,

The ROM is not Rooted by default so any Banking app should be working normally. Only if you Root the rom, then it will be a "fun" cat and mouse game...

Notifications will work depending on how you set your apps. If you disable the battery optimization, give all proper permissions, and lock the app in memory, no issues at all. Me personally have also disabled MIUI Optimisations in Dev Options so I can get rid of some of those "optimizations"...

You can always flash a stock ROM whenever you want but be prepared to do a data wipe. Just be careful to not lock your bootloader while flashing the stock ROM.

The multitasking is the same as with the stock MIUI. You can allow a couple of options in the Dev Options to allow all apps to be resizable but that works with a variable success depending on the app.

Battery life I think is about the same.

Is the ROM Safe?... Probably, the Dev that made it has been doing ROMs for other devices too and those are paid ROMs so I'm guessing that he would not compromise its work in any way...
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] Cyrax-001:
Thanks for the reply.

as for the notifications' issue which is my only problem with the official ROM, what is the difference if you should do the same steps to get them in real time? That may not be even guaranteed. It just seems that this ROM is a slightly adjusted copy of the official one, or what is the difference exactly
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] swaser1313:
What options do you change for resizing multitasking in dev options
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] OrionBG:
In the "Apps" section near the bottom:

-Force activities to be resizable

-Enable freeform windows

-Enable non-resizable in multi window

Those are the ones I usually Enable.

Hi, I rooted my device with EliteRom. Has anyone found a way to make this work Google wallet ? I tried installing SafetyNet through Magisk.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] zybtron:
wow, good to hear about Elite ROM. How is the battery life and does fast charging work?
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] KaiseRRUby:
Works without any problems for me.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] KaiseRRUby:
Fast charge works. Battery life is okay. Seems like deep sleep is a problem sometimes, but maybe its because of my settings. Its the only rom out there and it makes this device usable for non-China users so i am quite happy with it. Dev is easy approachable on Telegram. I asked him for an AOSP rom but there is no development for that.

I dont see any other rom coming out for the Fold 2 anymore tbh. Its EliteRom and thats it, unless someone makes a GSI suitable for this device.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] zybtron:
Thanks for your response.. will definitely install over the weekend.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] dragonnightx:
I have installed safety net. What settings do you have set?
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] KaiseRRUby:
I was wrong, its also not working for me. I use another bank app, that's not based on Wallet.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] dragonnightx:
Does the bank app use nfc and the name?
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] KaiseRRUby:
Yes. Its the Dutch ING bank. But it uses their own app for payments.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] zybtron:
Thanks for the sharing the info, Can you please a short instruction on how to flash the ROM.

1. Phone in fastboot mode

2. Running windows_fastboot_installer.bat

Do I require to update vendor image or am I missing any steps?
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] zybtron:
I found the instructions - https://xdaforums.com/t/eliteromlite_v14-for-mi-mix-fold-2-zizhan.4639908/post-89159831

I ll try it out..
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] zybtron:
Installed it.

Absolutely enjoying it. Notifications work very well.

Everything is polished and fast.

Thanks to @HassanMirza01

Thanks to @okanaltan for this thread.

Hi @HassanMirza01 :

The Elite ROM is for the Fold 2 right? I contacted you in Telegram about 2 months ago, and at that time, you mentioned it was only for the Fold 3.

How much and where do I donate to get the Fold 2 Elite ROM?

Thanks

Just unlocked my phone and downloaded Eliterom for Fold 2. For my Fold 3 that was a simple .bat file included to install it via Windows but it seems it s not there for the Eliterom for the Xiaomi Fold 2. How do I exactly install this rom?
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] OrionBG:
Are you sure there is no Batch file there? The last time I downloaded it, it had two. One for Windows and one for Linux
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] OrionBG:
Just downloaded the latest ZIP and it has the batch files for installation. Everything is as it should be.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] Mickey Padge:
I have flashed EliteRomLite OS1.0.23.11.27, build 2 on my Fold 2. So far so good, everything working fine. Playstore certified, banking and payments, Netflix and SkyGo etc...

Just a clean format install via fastboot, and all went well, not rooted. Would recommend.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] Putra:
Do we need to unlock bootloader first before flashing this ROM? Or simply boot into fastboot and run the bat file?
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] Mickey Padge:
Yes you will need development mode, usb debugging and an unlocked bootloader.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] Cyrax-001:
for those who tried HyperOS, what are the main differences that you noticed when compared to MiUi? are there new features for the Fold like the ability to resize the windows when we open two apps side by side on the large display?
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] OrionBG:
As usual for the fold family almost nothing new... The main thing is Android 14 but the rest is still pretty much MIUI ... The device does feel a little bit faster maybe...
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] Putra:
Read somewhere that if u have unlocked the bootloader, u won't be able to upgrade to HyperOS OTA.. is this true?

I have not gotten the notif for the HyperOS update yet. Was waiting for this b4 flashing the Elite ROM in case the above is true
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] Cyrax-001:
Stable (final) Release for the Fold 2 hasn't been released yet. We are in the Beta (2) Dev Rom. I believe that the next release will be Stable Pilot Tester (which is only for testers who registered in the test program) then comes the final stable for everyone.

Xiaomi Fold 3 got the Pilot Test Release yesterday, so I believe we're next..

Xiaomi Community

Are you troubled by Xiaomi's changes to the Bootloader unlock rules?

Hello everyone Xiaomi has recently changed the Bootloader unlock rules. Currently, applying for Bootloader unlock requires identity verification, but identity verification requires a CN bank card. This also causes most people who are not in CN to be unable to apply for unlocking Bootloader...

You need to ask experts, try to ask @HassanMirza01 since it's his ROM that you're downloading eventually
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] HassanMirza01:
well, i think unlocking bootloader is not linked to a rom in anyway, yes its required but its not only specific to rom, may be you can use MIUI rom and unlock bootloader in old way and then upgrade to HyperOS without locking bootloader ;)

hi. I have bought the Xiaomi Fold 2 a couple of days ago and as much I liked the amazing hardware, the software is driving me nuts by killing the notifications so I would like to try the custom EliteROM. I have been researching for days and would like to know some facts, any help is appreciated.

What is the difference between EliteROM and Lite EliteROM? are both offered for the Xiaomi Fold 2 or only one variant? the one listed here.

Xiaomi Mix Fold 2

These are Lite roms but are there for a fee, only for Fold series, you can send payment on paypal.me/sheriii999/10 and pm me...

www.elitedevelopment.com.pk

how about the notifications issue? does this EliteROM solve this issue completely without the need to disable system optimization (because it causes issues of its own) and without turning on the performance mode (because it increases the battery consumption apparently)?
