MIUI 9 Global Beta ROM 7.11.16 Released – Continues the Previous Update

Last week, MIUI users weren’t able to get MIUI 9 Global Beta ROM 7.11.10. The update suspended after some time due to FC caused by adding widgets to the home screen. However, the developers promised to provide fixes in the next update. And here we are with the next update “MIUI 9 Global Beta ROM 7.11.16”. Unlike other updates, this one has some major fixes because of the bugs in the suspended version. Thankfully, it has new app vault features which we waited for in the previous update.

MIUI 9 Global Beta ROM 7.11.16 – How to Download?

The users who are using MIUI 8 Global Beta ROM can grab your update three methods:

OTA (Over the Air) Method

The simplest, risk-free, and the easiest way to jump to MIUI 9 is Via OTA. But let us tell you that if you want to go from Stable to Beta Version of MIUI 9, OTA update is not possible. You have to use the Fastboot method or Recovery method. Here’s the OTA method mentioned in three simple steps:

1. Open Mi Updater App
2. Click software update
3. Confirm and Download the update

Or:

1. Go to Settings
2. Click My device
3. Go to MIUI version
4. Click System Update

Or

1. Click the update now in the notification bar.
2. Wait for the downloading to complete
3. Click reboot

Meanwhile, the user who are using MIUI V5 / MIUI 6 / MIUI 7 / MIUI 8 stable ROM can upgrade their phones to MIUI 9 via the fastboot method.

Fast Boot Method

This one is a little bit complicated and risky. If you haven’t received the update for your supported phone, you can’t try this. Moreover, it’s the only way to shift from Stable to Beta or Beta to Stable ROM or Developer to Stable / Beta.

• Install Mi PC Suite – here
• Download Drivers – here

How To Make a Local Backup?

• Go to settings – additional settings – backup & reset
• Click ‘Local backup – Backup’, to create the backup and move it to PC before flashing
• Do remember, it includes only apps so multimedia files need to be backup separately

Steps Before Fast-booting

Safety Measure: We recommend to backup your data before fastboot. Shifting from Developer mode to Stable requires a complete wipe.

Recovery Method

If you want a fresh installation, you can also select the recovery mode option and download the Recovery ROM.

1. Download the model’s MIUI 9 Global Beta ROM mentioned below.
2. Copy the.Zip file to an SD card.
3. Open recovery mode.
4. Select the file from the SD card and Install.
