So glad to see MI4C going stable on 8.2 Thanks for the hard work!
Now I am a bit unsure about the procedure for installing it.
So far I have been exclusively hoping from one stable release to the next which was just a matter of flashing over the old one.
Now the instructions (and my questions regarding them) read as:
How to upgrade from Android 5.1 to Android 7.0 MI4C, Mi4S, MINote PRO:
Install MIUI 6.12.22 before updating to Android 7.0..
-> Do I really have to flash some WEEKLY 6.12.22 over my STABLE MI4c_V8.1.3.0??
Select zip in Updater - menu - select zip
-> Is this explaining how to flash WEEKLY 6.12.22 or is this where I am to actually flash the new MI4c_V8.2.1.0??
Unlock your bootloader again on Mi4C, Mi4S, MiNotePRO
-> Got my MI4C early enough so I never had to unlock bootloader. There seem to be unofficial unlocking methods circumventing asking xiaomi for permission. Anybody having experience with that?
(check your bootloader status by command "fastboot oem device-info")
Install TWRP for 7.0 via fastboot "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" "fastboot boot twrp.img"
-> If this is a prerequisite for flashing 7.0, I'd expect a instruction following along the lines of "Flash 7.0 now". However, this seems to be missing...
In case of issues, wipe /data in TWRP
For ROOT use latest SuperSU
Any help or experience on that is very much appreciated.
