Need help upgrading to MM (beta or official) TL01H

Hi there folks. I got my Huawei Honor 7 phone for two months ago and I'm loving it, currently rooted it and everything except being unable to install Xposed on it, which I'll get to soon.
Now, the main problem is that I'm unable to update my phone in any way, not via the Updater app nor Local update, so I'm kinda stuck. (Wanting to download the YODA ROM 6.0 B250 to install Xposed with)
Is there some problem with it being the Chinese model? I currently have B173 installed and I assume I can't download an European update.app and upgrade it or? Do I need to debrand it? How?
Need some serious help, everything is confusing at the moment.
EDIT: Fixed with downgrading, suddenly got to upgrade via the OTA then!

Which rom to use for upgrading miui 8.1

Hi,
So i came here to get some help from you. My brother is using a redmi note 3 pro ( kenzo), and he have never update his phone. So he is currently using a rom from september 2016 from xiaomi.eu.
I remember that we have to use a certain rom that will update the internal storage before upgrading to a newer rom but since everything is so old, i really don't find a tutorial or which rom to install to do that.
Maybe someone will remember which step i have to do.
Thanks you !!

Upgrading MIUI 9 to MIUI 10 on an International Mi Pad 4

Hi!
Before attempting anything I wanted to ask this here:
I have a non-rooted, completely stock Mi Pad 4 bought from Gearbest. It is the international version (Model name: M1806D9W) that came with Google Apps, already with english language, etc. It currently runs MIUI Global 9.6 | Stable 9.6.7.0.0(ODJCNFD) (Android 8.1.0 OPM1.171019.019)
I read online that MIUI 10 should be available for global versions which I think mine is? But yet system updates tell me there are no updates available.
So here's my question: What is the simplest most straightforward way to upgrade to MIUI 10?
I see I can download ROMs from threads here and other places online but I want to make 100% sure of which one should I get.
Bonus question: Any way of backuping everything so I don't have to re-install, reconfigure, re-place my apps icons, etc?
Thanks so much!
pretty sure the international version that your reseller claim is false.. there are no international version now.. they probably loaded an "international modified" rom .. highly recommend you to flash xiaomi EU rom already comes with prebuilt playstore if you ur bootloader is already unlocked. if not, flash official chinese miui 10 rom and they are many guides to get playstore on chinese rom as well.

Ok I see! So once I upgrade to MIUI 10 I will have OTA updates then?
This is the one I need right? https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-pad-4/how-to/rom-miui-10-xiaomi-eu-links-t3864882
Also is there any way of restoring my apps, settings, etc like it is on MIUI 9 right now? OR will I really need to start all over again?
EDIT: I don't believe my Mi Pad 4 is rooted. This seems like good instructions on how to root it and flash a new rom? https://en.miui.com/thread-3196420-1-1.html
Thanks so much!
i just flashed my mi pad 4 . It had the same rom, just modified rom to include the playstore,
The bootloader is already unlocked.
just boot to fast boot. volume key + power
flash twrp - i used twrp installer bat from here en.miui.com/thread-3196420-1-1.html
once boots twrp, then flash miui 10 - androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=281632
job done.

yeah the link is correct, with xiaomi Eu rom you can still get official updates, maybe just slight delay from official chinese stream. but that's the best support we have so far for international miui roms now. the check update seems to be quite buggy on xiaomi eu rom, sometime it downloads but fails on completion.. just try again.. 2nd try is the charm as always haha. if not you can download the rom and dirty flash no problem, i was on beta previously so maybe thats why.
highly recommend you to start from fresh.. migrating over apps may result in bug occurrence.

OTA Updates will make me loose root?

Hi Guys,
i just received a notification about a security patch update (MIUI 11.0.9.0) which invite me to reboot my phone to proceed.
My 9s is under MIUI11 global 11.0.8, unlocked and rooted.
So my newbie question, what will happen after the reboot (if i proceed to the update)?
I'm not sure about what i read concerning that topic. Do i will loose root or something else?
Thank you beforehand for your answer.

no, i tried it and i'm still rooted. but if for some reason it gets removed rooted again, i've had an experience where i flashed my phone back to stock rom, and lost root, and was locked out again. After unlocking it with miui unlocker it was perfect.
Thx for the answer, in hoping it can help others (in being honest, since that time, i went already to a custom rom ^^).
