If you bought a new Xiaomi phone in online stores, don’t forget to use the above methods to check if it is an official international version first. Once connected, if your Xiaomi phone has an authentic global version, Xiaomi Web will display a consent message similar to the one we see in these lines below. That is why we will explain how to use the product verification tool provided by Xiaomi on its official website. A simple way that allows us to verify the origin of our mobile device according to IMEI or S / N and verify that a particular accessory or device is authentic. Xiaomi still has to announce the roadmap for its MIUI 10 Stable update. Till then, MIUI 10 Beta ROM is the best option to experience the latest iteration of MIUI skin.

Once you have downloaded the ROM, you must create a folder on your computer and extract the ROM into that folder. Finally, Xiaomi also offers a range of developer tools to help developers create their custom ROMs. These tools include the MIUI SDK (Software Development Kit) and the MIUI Developer Center. These tools allow developers to create their custom ROMs, as well as ability to modify existing ROMs and add new features. Once that is done, you can follow steps 1-to-3 above and launch the Terminal inside the working directory (the folder where the Fastboot ROM is extracted).
A low-end Android purchase landed me at the XDA forums in 2011, trying to get the most out of it with the help of custom ROMs. After helping the community as a Recognized Contributor and a Forum Moderator, I started my tech journalism journey in 2015 as a writer for the Portal. And I haven’t looked back from that point, moving forward and eventually taking over as XDA’s Editor in Chief in 2021. Now go the Extracted MIUI Fastboot folder and copy the path of the folder.

This error is caused because the tool verifies if the device’s bootloader has been locked or not. Since you used the ‘clean all’ or ‘save user data’ option, the bootloader is not locked and the error is shown. This is a problem with the tool itself and is nothing to be worried about since the verification takes place after the flash is fully complete. Mi Flash Tool flashes the firmware over the fastboot interface, so the next step is to boot your Xiaomi/Redmi/Poco device into Fastboot Mode. The easiest way to do this is by turning off your device completely first. Once it’s turned off, hold the Volume Down and Power keys together to enter Fastboot Mode.
Do not use this firmware on any other Xiaomi devices. So please make sure your device has at least 50% Battery. From the links below, download either the Fastboot or Recovery firmware and follow the recommended flashing instructions afterwards. Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro comes with 6.67 inches Full HD+ IPS LCD screen.
