Another confirmation: OTA from Dec to 17th Jan build went fine.

Haha. At least with fussing around with the partly broken (OTA not; clean yes) 3rd Jan build, I updated the firmware over all partitions files. ;)

Arrow ist such a great ROM. And many thanks to our device maintainers!

Concerning Magisk.
Is there a specific Magisk version for the Xiaomi Pad, or can i use the current version of Magisk (25.2) and everything is fine ?

Yep. You'll have to pull the boot image, patch and push it in again every time.

You can flash magisk via adb sideload from the recovery and the Tablet stays rooted (not sure if this is the reason but mine stays rooted). Boot into recovery -> "adb reboot sideload" -> adb sideload Magisk.zip -> on the tablet use the vol+/- buttons to select install anyway (you have to do this blind...) -> you are rooted

Updated from 6 January to 17 January without issues.

Finally native face unlock!!! 🎉 Thank you!

I have one issue (with previous builds too), when I boot the system the screen cast it's automatically enabled with the icon in the status bar, but it's not because my TV is off. I previously enabled the wireless display and connected to my TV.

PS. It's funny that each build changes the camera app :D

OK, so I have just updated from 3rd Jan version to 17th Jan version via OTA successfully (GAPPS version).

Steps:
1. If rooted, backup all apps + data onto PC (just in case)

2. Download and flash latest rom via OTA *DO NOT REBOOT*
3. Open magisk and choose 'install to inactive slot (after OTA)'

optional... *I rebooted direct to bootloader using ADB cmd 'adb reboot bootloader'
4. Wipe cache using 'fastboot erase cache'
5. Reboot using 'fastboot reboot'

All was well. NOTE: I said 'optional' above because A. I don't know if this makes a difference and B. I got an error message that said 'failed' when deleting cache (maybe this cmd doesn't work with A/B devices??)

Also NOTE: @Jordanrnd, DRM reports as L1

    Some people do sideload and some flashed the magisk patched boot.img

    Sry i can't tell you and/or find the thread for that, but im pretty sure a lot of people already made a tutorial about it in this forum


    I personally dont know what does it do. I just followed this guy's post
    https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...omi-pad-5-nabu-official.4502749/post-87733027


    I dont know, never tried it but i've tried some experimental cusrom on another device before and my experience wasn't so great

    Sry man, im just another casual user. I can't help you much in technical case

    After rebooting 5 times I got a version of Dolby Atmos (seems to be old) and the bug disappeared after an hour. Magisk Modules needs to reboot to apply but luckily I think there aren't any which I want because I don't need anything I think except if you highly recommend something.

    when i check fastboot version with: fastboot --version. This is the result instead of the new version: C:\Android\fastboot.exe: unknown option -- version. So i just deleted it and add the new platform tools into the env variable. And That's all

    Hmmm, that's too complicated for me... I'm back on latest Global MIUI and I'll wait until an update us out which gives that problem. Bit thanks anyway.

    Did anybody test if this ROM also works on "elish" (Mi Pad 5 Pro M2105K81AC)?

    This is only for Mi Pad 5 (NABU). Any other devices will get a bootloop. Maybe you can find an unofficial ROM.

    Hello, guys. I have been super busy so I may not be posting anything on XDA and hardly anything over my TG channels. OTAs will keep releasing/builds will be up on the website.
    ALSO:
    I do not own the Xiaomi Keyboard, it seems the latest changes broke it for some users which should be fixed in the latest release.

    A lot of people are asking me if this is a good tablet for art or not. I am a simple man and have very basic tablet needs. I do not own a pen (too expensive) nor can I draw something good. Please, can someone with a pen or knowledge of apps which works best for artists give their short insights so I can refer people here?
