Nope sorry. Mj6 will trip the counter. You can still try installing from sammobile and dont root it.

That's right, but try to root it.... You now have the new bootloaders that trip when you root, and if something goes wrong forget using Kies 3 to fix as the newest firmware Malaysia has to date is MJ1, the old bootloader.... Welcome to bootloopssville, population - You....
I don't know about the branded version, but I succeeded in flashing MJ6-BTU on my french XEF phone. Root is working - Knox is 0x0.
Universal RDLV is able to create the system.img.ext4 and cache.img.ext4 files, but you have to include some other files from the Samsung tar.md5 file or camera and WLAN will be broken. DO NOT include the *.mbn files - DO NOT include the unmodified system.img.ext4 - this would result in Knox 0x1.
You flash a RDLV version, but you have to add some additional files from the Samsung firmware. At least you have to add NON-HLOS and modem, but in my case this wasn't enough, so I built a new .tar.md5 file with almost everything. The only files I didn't include were the *.mbn files. System+Cache from the RDLV tar.md5, the rest from the Samsung tar.md5 file.

You will understand how to create your UK MJ7 firmware unbranded and rooted. Don't flash a newer firmware than MJ1 to keep the old bootloader and don't use kingoapp or vroot .... They use an exploit which won't exist anymore when samsung will decide it ! You will be happy to have the old bootloader at this moment ...

Thank you, i understand that it's important tout keep the old bootloader. So my iinterrogation is about i update my mi7 directly to rdlv mj7 or i update first to mj1 and after to mj7.
Bootloader on mi7 and mj1 is the same?
It will be rooted by following the process "root de la vega", so before flashing it
Ok thanks, now it's time to read the post and try :good:

hello, just for confirmation i just need put the files on root of internal sd card. I don't need flash AP/CSC because i flash RDLV before ?
I've just flash RDLV MJ7 and now i just try to root.
Thanks again.
EDIT : root is done, just put files reboot... remove and done.
Thanks all for your help !!

I bought what I thought was a UK Note 3 (via Amazon UK) but it turns out to be a Malaysian XME one. I've therefore been looking at moving over to the BTU firmware. Was it simply a case of downloading (I've done this from Sammobile) and installing via Odin? Any issues encountered?

Hello,
i'm not sure what you want exactly. If i understand your phone is XME and you want BTU ? So if you flash a rom from sammobile with multi-csc your phone rest on XME. You need to flash BTU exclusive one ( i think, ask for confirmation ).
But before flash you need to know if you want root after or customise, because of knox warrantly and new bootloader you can't do this is you don't do the right thing.
