How to flash MIUI Fastboot ROM from Linux
- Download the fastboot ROM suitable for your device from the MIUI site and extract the downloaded archive [edit: MIUI page is dead. Use Xiaomi Firmware Updater]
- Download and extract the Android SDK Platform Tools
- Make sure
adb
andfastboot
(components of platform-tools) are in your path
$ export PATH=path/to/android/sdk/platform-tools:$PATH
- Connect your device to your computer using a USB cable and enable USB Debugging in your device's settings. Check if your device is detected.
$ adb devices
- If device is listed, reboot to bootloader
$ adb reboot bootloader
- Check if your device is detected by fastboot
$ fastboot devices
- You may need to use
sudo
beforefastboot
if you get a permission denied error - There are two scripts for flashing the ROM:
flash_all.sh
- Flash ROM and erase user dataflash_all_except_data_storage.sh
- Flash ROM without erasing user data
- Whichever script you decide to use, make sure that the interpreter is mentioned at the top of the script like
#!/bin/sh
- If the above line is missing, add it to the top of the script
- Make the script executable (I've chosen
flash_all.sh
)
$ cd path/to/extracted/ROM/archive
$ chmod a+x ./flash_all.sh
- Run the script
$ ./flash_all.sh
- You may need to run
sudo ./flash_all.sh
if you had to usesudo
withfastboot
- Sit back and relax. The script needs no user interaction. After flashing the ROM, the script will reboot your device.
- Reboot will take quite a bit of time. Don't panic.
