Thanks, but do I need to lock it again each time after I update ROM via FASTBOOT?

 

[ingbrzy]

That returned a green screen, wonder why Magisk doesn't pass

Magisk v22.1 (and lower) are using an outdated API for calling SafetyNet and get results, it will be fixed in the next stable version of Magisk.

What if I want to revert back to older rom?eg. flash from V12.5.2 stable to V12.0.8 stable or weekly (newer) to weekly (older). Do I need to run update_rom script in older rom folder or first_install_with_data_format in older rom folder?

"first_install_with_data_format" is always recommended when downgrading.

Hello,

Today I tried to update my HMK40_POCOF3_ROM V12.0.8.0 --> HMK40_POCOF3_V12.5.2.0.RKHCNXM_v12-11-fastboot.
But I run into a bootloop in the recovery menu...

I'd like to avoid to loose my data storage...

[Edit]
I tried to downgrade back to V12.5.2.0, but I ran in the same issue

Hello everyone!

So to solve that issue, I had first to reinstall the chinese ROM (MiFlash) V12.0.8.0 (the 12.5.2.0 didn't worked). I had some "no catch checkpoint" errors, but it eventually worked the 3d time (still with the same error, but it rebooted the system sucessfully). Then I updated the Chinese ROM --> V12.5.2.0 with the system updater. After that I've been able to reflash the EU ROM V12.5.2.0 (first install).

Now I've lost my user data :'(

How can I make sure to avoid such a pain in the future?
Will we be able to use the system update feature to update to the lastest EU ROM version?

My take is to keep the stable rom zip that I flashed until twrp is available and I can do a android backup, THEN I might play with updating the system.
Is there an equivalent of android that can be ran and restored with fastboot?

 

[Brightbrightsun]

anyone flashed from global rom to EU rom? whats your reason from doing so? and have anyone of you seen an increase in battery life?

 

[gogocar62]

my reason is to record calls, more features and MIUI 12.5 with xiaomi apps instead of google apps

The battery is not my problem.


I am sorry for my bad English

 

[Boxcryptor]

Any advise to increase in battery life?
Because battery is go empty so fast.

 

[Smooth_gl]

I have Poco f3 on global stable. Can I flash directly over global or I should flash China rom first?

 

[gogocar62]

flash directly over global

Watching your post, My better advise is to describe all little bit better and deeper your issue.

Hello, is recovery going to be added? I saw a post on xda of a twrp alpha, I would leave the link but I don't know if it is against the rules. Good Morning.

[RECOVERY] [ALPHA] TeamWin Recovery Project (Nebrassy) not ready to install rom. There are problems so far

[LOLO9393]

Hola, ¿se va a agregar la recuperación? Vi una publicación en xda de un twrp alpha, dejaría el enlace pero no sé si va en contra de las reglas. Buenos días.

What is against the rules is to not write in english. Easy

 

[sandarating]

if i install the latest fastboot ROM, will i be able to update to recovery ROM in the future?

 

[gogocar62]

yes

 

[J11VA]

@ingbrzy Will you include support for aliothIN (Mi 11X). If yes when can we expect?

 

[willywing]

flash directly over global

Thanks for the advice.

But why is written in the first post that we have to flash from China ROM? As below:

Steps to install xiaomi.eu ROM for first time from China ROM (All your data and files on internal storage will be deleted!)

 

[gogocar62]

Because this is a guide for Redmi K40 = China rom / Poco F3 = Global rom

hi, anyone successfully update from HMK40_POCOF3_ROM V12.0.8.0 to HMK40_POCOF3_V12.5.2.0.RKHCNXM ?

Didn't work for me, I got a bootloop. You should wipe data/cache (first_install_with_data_format) and install v12.5.2.0 directly. After that you can just update to newer versions.
