    Hello.

    Concerning “How to Install MIUI 8 Global Fastboot ROM”:
    Why do you write; “5) Now extract the Fastboot ROM and copy its path on the PC”, when Fastboot ROM is a tgz-file?

  3. My mi4i is running on miui 6 what should I do to install the update

    I got a bew Redmi 4A with Chinese Rom 8.2.5.0 and cant get it updated to Global BetaRom (or Global 8.2.1) either with Recovery (unofficial Rom) or Fastboot (can not found file “flash_all.bat”). The phone is unlocked and USB Debugging is enabled and I use a Windows 10 – 64 bit system.
    Regarding Fastboot mode, I feel that I should be able to see/explore the phone after refreshing in the miflash app, but I don’t.
    Any suggestion what I might do wrong?
