[INDEX] POCO X3 (surya/karna): guides, ROMs, tools, etc.

[pnin]

EOL WARNING! For over a year, I made it my job to set this index and maintain it; now (2021-12-10), I won't be updating it anymore -- I still visit the forums, but XDA-Devs has grown too adversarial for any meaningful technical discussion and the custom ROM scene here reflects it. Anyone is welcome to pick up where I left -- just PM me and I'll provide a BBcode dump...

DISCLAIMER: all credit goes to the posters; I own nothing and claim nothing (apart where otherwise stated); as usual, your device warranty is void merely by peeping beyond this point, so close your browser and run away if that's not what you intended...

Also please pay attention to the following (or see Note2 below):

Poco X3 NFC aka surya model number is M2007J20CG. On the other hand, the Indian variant AKA karna model number is correctly M2007J20CI.

https://xdaforums.com/posts/83797093

BTW, anyone looking for Poco X3 Pro (AKA, vayu/bhima) info better check @kamild_'s similar Index thread (https://xdaforums.com/t/4265625/) at the dedicated XDA-Devs forum.

GSMArena POCO X3 NFC review​

https://www.gsmarena.com/poco_x3_nfc-review-2166.php​

The Poco X3 NFC is an outstanding smartphone with a great specs sheet on a bargain price. It has the screen, power, camera, and battery to impress. There is no doubt it will sell well, and we see no reason why it shouldn't make it in your shopping shortlist.

[...] Cons

* Not the best pixel response time leading to ghosting in 120Hz
* Unimpressive low-light camera quality

Note1

MIUI official ROMS apparently follow a fixed scheme, with special meaning for the alphabetic suffix.

Thus, for the latest global ROM (V12.0.8.0.QJGMIXM) you have version + QJGMIXM.

Android ver = 1	Device ID = 2	Region ID = 2	MIUI ver = 2
Q​	JG​	MI​	XM​

POCO X3 stock ROM known regions are (no China version, which similarly would be "CN"):

Region	ID
Global​	MI​
Europe​	EU​
Indonesia​	ID​
India​	IN​
Russia​	RU​
Turkey​	TR​

There's also firmware update(s) albeit no thread on XDA yet.

Thank you. Added to ROM section.

 

[Bryceicle1971]

Call me old school all you like, but I still believe an index thread is the quickest way to get the help you need in the massive throng that is XDA-Devs.

Thus, I made it my job to set one up and maintain it (cf. examples: Redmi 8, Nubia Z7); and please feel free to contribute -- the more, the merrier.

People, I can't answer most questions posted here in the past few days.

The recorder app doesn't work Stock ROM. At least for me and another xda user, we tried a lot of different versions, none seemed to work

And nice thread, gonna be hard to maintain, goodluck

That'd be a good sign in my book -- meaning lots of action in our device forums.

Sounds very risky my friend. Trying to flash anything with a locked bootloader can result in a brick. Best to try an change region firmware with unlocked bootloader

Hi friends. Two questions, do you have a tutorial to install magisk or could I use any tutorial as Magisk installation is common to all devices?
And, is there any proof that Poco X3 has antirollback enabled in stock MIUI?
As I always root my phone and install TWRP I cannot upgrade via OTA. I always upgrade via TWRP using the zip file downloaded from official server.
In my scenario, do I need to be preocuppied about antirollback? or only when I intend to downgrade?
Thanks for the kind explanation!

Where can I download the official MiFlash tool? There seems to be several websites offering MiFlash tools but I can't tell if they are the official one. Thanks!

You can install magisk 21.0 like usual. If want downgrade, recommend downgrade Miui version only. Not recommend downgrade Android version.

Anyone knows anything about this?

As quoted in OP, "Indian variant AKA karna model number is M2007J20CI"; now Cacombos site is listing Indian Poco X3 as "MZB07Z3IN" (see https://cacombos.com/device/MZB07Z3IN, posted by olkitu).
