Well i got few questions.
1. What is firmware and is it necessary?
2. How do i install it if i have to?

Sorry I'm totally new to these kind of stuffs.
Here's some advice: the first few posts of thread (called OP or opening post) often provide informations about important things. It's a good habit to read it first... Your questions are already explained there...

Hi all, I'm trying to flash the latest dev firmware on my Poco F1 so I can update to the latest Pixel Experience version. I'm on TWRP 3.3.0.0, unlocked via Xiaomi. These are my logs.

It doesn't even look like the install really fails, it just looks weird. But when I try to install the PE update, I still get a message saying dev firmware 9.4.26 is required, so I guess the install actually did fail. What's goin' on?

Also asking this in the Poco F1 PE thread.

The problem is in the PE installer not detecting newer versions of firmware.

You can either disable the check by opening the installer script and commenting out the lines that check the firmware version or installing the version they are suggesting but with full MIUI ROM.

I would like to ask one thing which searching cannot find the answer. I have global Redmi 5. I always flash the global firmware. But it is safe if I flash the Chinese firmware for Redmi 5?

You can flash it. No problems with that.
If you faced any issues you can simply flash the global version again.

Redmi 4X (santoni) has not had weekly global update for many weeks. Is Xiaomi not releasing weekly global anymore for it ?

I cannot install firmware from this official site through TWRP, it always says there's a problem with the zip file.
I just boot into recovery and select the zip file during install.

I have downloaded the file many times but I still get the same problem.

Do I need a special program or a special process to install this file?

Seemed more appropriate to respond to you in this thread.

Hi.
Should be nothing special.
My first thought was you are running into a zip Signature problem.

I just got a chance to try the 9.5.30 version from your link.
Selecting Poco I was redirected to github and downloaded it from there.

First install no problems.

I turned on Zip signature verification on under setting in twrp and tried again.
I assume this error you are seeing.

Not sure what recovery you are using but, you should be able to turn off the signature verification.
I did not check the zip but, either it's not signed or not signed by a generic key.

I do not normally use the flashable firmware updates.
I follow the updater on telegram though. I prefer the fastboot links. ;)

I am trying miui stable 10.3.4.0.

Does it make sense installing vendor + firmware 9.6.3 ?

    All Xiaomi users suffer from a single problem, Firmware update. As there are many devices with no one to provide the newest firmware update every single release. And also developers who provide updates to devices may forget or be busy sometimes, so releases are provided later. Here is my simple solution:

    Xiaomi Firmware Updater V5
    jSIVrRy.png
    Code:
    #include 
    /*
    * Your warranty is now void.
    *
    * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
    * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
    * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
    * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
    * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
    */

    A set of various script that automatically generates Xiaomi firmware flashable zip files every MIUI new update!
    My scripts download MIUI official ROMs, both Developer and Stable, Global and China, extracts the firmware-update folder, generates firmware flashable zip with auto-written "updater-script", and uploads them automatically to many servers.
    The scripts are completely automated, running on a Linux server every six hours.

    Frequently Asked Questions:
    What is Firmware? Is it a full ROM or OTA package?
    Firmware is not a ROM nor OTA Package, it's a set of low-level drivers which helps the operating system do whatever it wants to do. It includes various things like Modem, Bluetooth, Bootloader, DSP and etc.
    Why should I update the Firmware?
    Firmware is provided from Xiaomi directly, and there are no sources for it to let developers build and edit it on their own like custom ROMs, so if you want to keep your device up to date always update your firmware!
    Do I need updating the Firmware If I'm MIUI official or custom ROM user?
    No, MIUI ROMs contain the firmware-update package which I extract and provide here.
    What are the supported devices?
    All Snapdragon and MTKdevices including China-only devices.
    Check the full devices list here!
    How to update firmware?
    1- Download the package you want to flash. IT MUST BE NAMED WITH THE SAME CODENAME OF YOUR DEVICE.
    2- Flash it using TWRP or any custom recovery. There's no need to wipe/format anything before or after the installation.
    How to check the updated firmware?
    Usually, the modem gets updated with newer firmware, you can check it in Settings > About > Baseband.

    IMPORTANT:
    These files contain the complete "firmware-update" folder, means it needs your bootloader to be unlocked OFFICIALLY , so if you unlocked it unofficially you have to remove "emmc_appsboot.mbn" and "non-hlos.bin" and you'll be okay!

    XiaomiFirmwareUpdater first anniversary!

    Wow, I still can't believe that my project is one year old now!
    A year passed
    It's been a long year, which passed very quickly. During this year, there were many updates, many changes, many challenges, and many new contributions.
    Since Jan 2018 the project has evolved a lot:
    - from supporting only 30 devices, to support all Xiaomi qcom devices!
    - from using CI to using Linux server :p
    - from V1 to V4.6 now!
    - from using shell in all scripts to python (expect one script which will be updated soon :D)
    - from doing everything manually to be an almost completely automated project.

    In just one year, we've made some milestones:
    - The project expanded to 7 scripts for tracking miui updates, tracking devices, tracking open-source kernel releases, creating flashable firmware files, provide firmware, non-arb firmware, and firmware-less ROMs.
    - The project has been selected as one of "Projects of the Week, November 5, 2018" on SourceForge
    - Many websites wrote about us: XDA - 4PDA - Android Community - Gizchina - Piunikaweb
    - We launched our website in December.
    - And we made some good statistics (AndroidFileHost and Basketbuild are not listed):
    • More than 829K view on xda (all devices)
    • 49K download from GitHub.
    • 135K download from SourceForge. (Since April to December)
    • 7K download from OSDN. (Since December to Today)
    • 27K visit on our website (Since December to Today)
    • 12.2$ and 15.2€ donations :eek:
    • 316 Star on all Github repos.
    • 4800+ subscriber on telegram channel.

    What's the next?
    We'll continue providing the best services to Xiaomi users! We moved to https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com today, and here's a part of our plan for this year:
    - Improving the website, adding the missing features like other firmware variants and so.
    - Keep adding newly released devices, just as we used to do. I know Redmi Note 7 is launched :p will add it later.
    - Making our own app! This step is too late, but I promise we'll make an app you'll like :good:
    - (maybe) providing vendor+firmware for project treble devices, I've been suggested this from Mi MIX 2S users, but I'm not sure if I can handle it alongside with all other things running on the server.

    We want to hear from you :D
    We've been together for one year :highfive: I'd like to hear your thoughts, feel free to suggest any edits or new feature, all contributions are more than welcome :good:

    Supporting the project
    This project is completely free, it uses Linux server to do the all automated jobs, away from the development process which takes a lot of time and effort, this costs us a lot of expenses if you want to support the project you can donate via PayPal.

    Xiaomi Firmware Updater V5 is here!
    As MIUI releases are inactive these days because of Chinese new year, it’s a good time to make a new update that was delayed for a long time :D

    Here’s what’s new:
    • Complete re-write from scratch in python 3.
    • Updates are now fetched from MIUI Tracker, there’s no need to re-check.
    • A unified script for normal fw, non-arb and fw-less, stable and weekly.
    • With this update, there’ll be no more commit to each device repo, while releases will be still pushed.
    • Latest firmware info is available as json files.
    • New supported device added: Redmi Note 7.
    The firmware changelog feature will be added in a later update. Do you have any suggestions? Feel free to tip us!
