How To Guide [Guide] [Stable] xiaomi.eu Ad free Builds installation

[arvindgr]

As Redmi as usual messes up naming convention, we ended up having three names for same device - Redmi Note 9 4G (CN), Redmi 9T (EU) and Redmi 9 Power (IN)
I had spent a day on best way to remove ads in our device and ended up reinstalling ROM altogether
I reached to Dev and he helped with progress on this here https://github.com/geoanto555/android_device_xiaomi_lime/issues/1

Usual device-specific Data Backup/unlocking/rooting warnings apply here, and this is just a guide
Req:
* SD Card or USB OTG
* Download latest Recovery https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=320361
* Download Stable ROM https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/miui-12-0-stable-release.56191/ (You can experiment with Beta ROMs if courageous)
* Download Full fastboot MIUI image to recover phone in case required
* fastboot getvar product -> Should output "lime"

1. Unlock your phone via official unlocking tool (Yeah it still takes 7 full days)

2. Once unlocked, Boot to fastboot mode (Volume Down + Power when the phone is switched off)

3. Flash Recovery and boot TWRP using below commands

cmd>fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Sending 'recovery' (131072 KB) OKAY [ 3.037s]
Writing 'recovery' OKAY [ 1.198s]
Finished. Total time: 4.586s

cmd>fastboot reboot-recovery
Rebooting into recovery OKAY [ 0.006s]
Finished. Total time: 0.011s

4. After rebooting to TWRP, It'll show FBE Decryption failed. Even Formatting Data wont help

5. Mount USB/SDcard. Install .zip on OTG/SDcard via TWRP

6. Format /data after ROM is flashed

7. Reboot and Profit

Thanks for this Guide, I have installed weekly rom, but it has more lag and camera slowly open and take pictures? is stable like than?

Tero direct booting isn't supported by our device. After flashing recovery, reboot to recovery

Is this have the mi dialler and mi messaging?

Yes. Replaces Google Phone and Messaging app comes in Stock builds

Thanks for this Guide, I have installed weekly rom, but it has more lag and camera slowly open and take pictures? is stable like than?

Weekly builds are known for lags here and there. Better to stay with Stable builds. Use GCam they're better in custom MIUI builds

Not at all, I am using stable build for atleast a month now. Battery drain is slightly more than Stock But as our phone had 6Ah battery, its hardly a problem

I see. Should I just unlock bootloader and move to xiaomi.eu pr downgrade entirely to Redmi 9? I just want to get the agressive ram issue solved.
