Hi, as the title says, I would like to opt into the A13 Beta, but currently I am rooted on Android 12 Stable on my Pixel 6. So do just opt in and update or do I have to do something with magisk first?

I joined the beta, downloaded the factory image and flashed with Pixel GUI

This article may help. You probably want to unroot first though to make sure you pass the pre-OTA verification checks.

I have Xiaomi Mi 8 with MIUI 10.2.1.0 Global Stable and I would like to downgrade to MIUI 8.12.20. so I have 2 questions :
* Where to download the MIUI 8.12.20 rom ?
* How to downgrade from MIUI Stable 10.2.1.0 to MIUI 10 8.12.20 ?
I'm a new user of Xiaomi phones, I have no idea from where to start. I google those questions and I read a lot of contradictory informations (some says that it's not possible to downgrade, others says that you just have to flash it, ...). I installed android device bridge and fastboot. Also applied to unlock the bootloader today so I have to wait a while to be able to unlock it for real.
Can you please help me ?
If you can unlock your bootloader you can use mi flash and fastboot to flash beta rom.

you can download recovery rom from en.miui.com and flash though updater app in system settings, backup your data first it will clean all device data
Thank you for your answer. I read that the rollback protection will brick the phone if I try to install a older version my rom. A beta version will skip that check ?
Why would going from android pie stable to android pie beta ever trigger arb?
Actually the entire premise makes no sense... 8.12.20? Stable? Wat?
Miui 8 on mi 8? Wat?

Does the version of miui change anything? Or it is only the android version? If it is only android version it's easier.

Ok thanks. So I'm on a stable miui 10 build 2.1.0 and I need to install developer build from 3 weeks ago (probably miui 10 but not sure).
I'm trying to install the required version of miui to install havoc ROM. It is written in the ROM requirement that I need to install 8.12.20 and then flash the ROM on top of it.
So if I got it, I need to wait for the unlocking of the bootloader and then install the developer build.
Does it change something if I download the MIUI 8.12.20 from xiaomi.eu ? I don't find that rom on en.miui.com. Do you know any trusted source to download ROM ?

Good to know. Thanks for the information.
Can someone confirm that there is no risk to flash miui Dev 8.12.20 on top on miui global stable 10.2.1.0 ? No risk for arb ?
And is it possible to reinstall an official version of miui in the future after flashing developer build then custom ROM ?
Yes you'll need to unlock bootloader to install custom rom.
No you dont have to wait to install global beta, you can do that straight from the miui updater on your phone (three dots \ choose update package)
It'll factory reset your phone.
I don't know if you can go from 10.2.x.x stable straight to 8.12.20 beta but the updater will tell you.
Worst case you'll have to downgrade to an earlier stable release first.
The miui updater will never allow you two trigger arb and arb will only ever get triggered when trying to downgrade the ANDROID version.
Google to find out how to check the current status of arb via adb

To move from stable to beta I need to unlock the bootloader and this operation takes a while if I understood coreectly. I just applied to unlock my bootloader so I presume I have to wait around 15 days to be able to start, is it correct ?
I did not get why I would have to pass by an earlier stable release first, can you give me more informations please?
Thank you, really appreciate. Was completely lost regarding all those things.

Yes you can download from xiaomi servers but you needa link, here it is:

Is it the official global dev rom ? Thank you
Another question to install my new rom, which version of TWRP should I install ? There are many version for xiaomi (wzsx, FireDance-Edition, and many others). Is there any difference ? I just want TWRP, but I don't understand why there are so many different versions of the same recovery for the same phone... Someone understood that ?
EDIT: a user from xiaomi.eu told me to take TWRP FireDance-Edition for the many languages included. Is it a good choice ?

Well, 8.12.20 it's based on MIUI10. If you want to go Beta, just flash 9.1.10 Global Beta, that it's the latest build.
There's a ton of guide on official en.miui.com, just follow them!

My goal is not go Beta but to install Havoc. In the first post of the rom he says, first install 8.12.20 and then flash the rom. That's why i'm asking for that specific version.

9.1.10 is better than 8.12.20, and as I said on Havoc thread the 8.12.20 is the minimum base firmware required, not the only one.
Feel free to try what you want
Other than that, use latest PitchBlack Recovery (based on 3.2.3 TWRP) as recovery.

Interesting. Which miui version would be better to take? Is there one more stable than the other? Is it better to install the latest beta and flash havoc on top of it?
Thank you for pitch-black recommandation. Seems to be a fork of twrp, what your motivation to go with that one instead of twrp?
Your help is yeally appreciate Thanks you for taking the time to answer those questions.
I would stick with whatever the ROM maintainer recommends for firmware. See link got -perfect example of why:

Just to notice you. If you apply for unlock on stable rom. Dont change to beta, because it will reset your time, and you have to make new apply

Okay so I know the problem with this update.
This update is for users who are currently still on android 9 as this update is android 9 march security patch update. That's why us android 10 users can't install it.
For both EU and global versions the march update for android 9 was released today.
They probably should have done it so as we wouldn't see the update but they pushed the update for all devices not like android 10 where only some people got it.
So you guys can just ignore this update until android 10 is fully released
Yes I'm also facing the same problem

Check some times mannually for updates and notification will go away
This phone is just an astonishing demonstration of xiaomi incompetence...
I have had a few xiaomi phones in the past and the only complain i had was that the updates were late(ish). But i never imagined that something like this would ever happend.
Not even the fingerprint sensor is usable...

Thank you very much for clearing my doubts.
It's time to test our patience Xiaomi... please make it quick...
Dear Developers,
I am having an issue with updating my MI9 to MIUI 12. The thing is, I still don't have the update option in the updates. It says "No updates available at the moment". My current version of MIUI is 11.0.6.0. I am asking about this because two of my friends, already updated their MI9s like 3-4 weeks ago. The difference is, my phone was bought on Gearbest, and theirs in the local stores. Could this be the issue?
Thanks in advace.

This is UPGRADING and not updating: updating means patching an existing Android OS version.
FYI: MIUI9 is based on Android 9 ( Pie ) whereas MIUI12 is based on Android 11 ( RVC ).

Thank you but your answer here is useless. Do how do I force them to upgrade my MIUI 11 to MIUI 12 then? I guess with upgrading my Android as well.

AFAIK OEMs/Carriers NEVER UPGRADE a phone, but only update it if indicated to do so. You cannot force them.
Hi Team, I was living under a rock and have been on android 9 for last 2 years now wanted to upgrade to Android 11.
Is it possible to skip android 10?
I have update the TWRP to latest version any other things to mind, I would still wanna remain with pixel exp +
Thanks for the help.

Hi, it depends on which device you have. As you know Android does not support updates very long for certain devices. So, first check if your device still can receive updates from Android and if not, see if you can update to Android 10, which is much better than 9. Kind regards kuzibri

I am using Poco F1. No official updates and I dont like miui. Please advise if I can flash android 11 on top of android 9? Same rom pixel exp
I think yes, you can flash directly the latest PE. See HERE and HERE. Clean flash, with formatting (not only wiping) several partitions is a must.
Hi,
After the first update I received on my OnePlus 7T Pro,
My phone performance became so much bad,
I kept updating my phone to the latest in the hope something would fix it, but it did not.
I'm not looking for any tips, fixes, or optimizations,
I just want my phone as the exact second I opened it,
I want a Full factory reset,
downgrading to the first stock Oxygen OS that came with the phone,
I need the official files and the method.
for the Global Edition
thanks.
