Download Official MIUI ROMs for Xiaomi Mi5S

This popular smart phone from Chinese manufacturer, Xiaomi, made its debit in October of 2016. It weighs in at one hundred and forty-five grams and it has a thickness of 8.2 millimeters. If you’re looking for an attractive and functional smartphone which runs the Android 6.0 operating system, you should consider choosing the Mi5S. It comes with one hundred and twenty-eight gigabytes of storage and includes a powerful Snapdragon 821 processor, as well as a roomy 3200mAh battery.

One perk of selecting this smart phone is that you’ll be able to enjoy a touchscreen display which measures five and a half inches. The touchscreen is very impressive. It’s an IPS LCD capacitive style with a screen to body ratio of -72.4. It delivers 1080 by 1920 pixels, with a PPI pixel density of -430.

We love the metal shell of this budget smart phone. It’s so durable and it looks costlier than it is. We also love this smart phone’s cameras and its connectivity features. When you choose this model, you’ll get an awful lot for your money, so why not update it to the latest ROM version today?

How to flash Xiaomi Mi 5S

Below we’ve listed all the available methods on how you can flash your Xiaomi Mi 5S smartphone. Before continuing with out tutorials, make sure you’ve installed all required drivers. Few of the methods required you to have unlocked bootloader device, you can also find unlocking tutorials at our website, simply use the search button.

1. Flashing Mi5S with XiaoMiFlash

This method will work with locked bootloader (using the EDL mode). It’s recommended then you want to clean all previously installed ROMs. Also you can use this method in case you want to upgrade from China to Global and and vice versa, as well as lock the bootloader once again.

1. Download required fastboot ROM version from the above links.
2. Use WinRar to unpack downloaded ROM. You should see ROM files and “images” folder after unpacking.
3. Move unpacked folder to the “C:\” drive.
4. Now pay attention to bootloader lock status. Locked device can be flashed only in EDL mode, while unlocked device can be flashed both in fastboot mode and EDL (download mode).
5. Make sure your phone is charged on 50% at least. Also don’t forget to backup important data from your device.
6. Start MiFlash.exe and press “Refresh” button. If all drivers were previously installed you should see your device COM port.

10. Press “Flash” button to start flashing. The installation process should take around 5-10 minutes. After installation is completed you’ll see “The operation is completed successfully” message.

If you stuck with any issues, check the following points:

• Try using different version of MiFlash tool.
• Make sure the ROM files are unpacked correctly.
• Try reinstalling drivers on your PC.
• If you’re trying to flash locked device in fastboot mode, this will not work. Locked device can be flashed only in EDL mode.

How to flash Xiaomi Mi5S with “Updater” app

Actually, this is the most easiest and convenient way on how to update your Mi 5S phone with fresh ROM version. It doesn’t require you to install any complicated drivers on your PC and it can be used with locked bootloader. The only issue that it’s might not work as it’s supposed to.

Pay attention to the following points, before using “Updater” app:

• If you want to downgrade to the previous version, all personal data will be deleted from your phone.
• Most probably you can’t flash Global ROM from China and vice versa.
• You can’t use “Updater” app to install multilingual ROMs.

Now let’s continue with the flashing tutorial:

6. That’s it!

In case you’ve stuck with an error, don’t be sad and try different flashing methods.

How to flash Xiaomi Mi5S with TWRP Custom Recovery

First of all you must have TWRP Custom Recovery installed on your phone. This will require you to have unlocked bootloader. There’s no way to install TWRP on locked bootloader.

1. After you’ve installed TWRP Custom Recovery, disconnect your phone from PC and select language in TWRP main menu.
2. Swipe to allow modifications.
3. Press “Reboot” > “Recovery”.
4. After you’ve rebooted in TWRP once again, go to “Mount” and check “Disable MTP”.

6. Now tap on “Wipe” (this step will delete all data from your phone) > “Format data”. In the appeared window type “yes”. Swipe to continue.
7. It’s recommended to backup your device, go to “Backup” menu and select “Boot”,”System”, “Data”, “Cache”. Swipe and confirm.
8. Go back to main menu and tap on “Wipe” > “Advanced Wipe”. Select Dalvik/ART Cashe, Cashe, System, Data partitions.
9. Go back to main menu again and press “Reboot” > “Recovery’.
10. Connect your phone to PC after reboot.
11. Copy required recovery ROM .zip file to phone internal memory. Check if “system partition read only” is disabled.
12. Now go to “Install” menu and locate ROM .zip archive. No need to enable any options here.
13. Swipe to confirm installation.
14. After installation is completed, swipe to “Wipe Dalvik/Cache”.
15. Reboot OS.
16. First startup may take around 15-20 minutes.

How to flash Mi5S with Mi PC Suite

This method will work for any official ROM version. It will work for both locked and unlocked bootloader. Mi PC Suite will also install all required drivers on your PC, if they haven’t been installed previously. If you want to use Mi PC Suite to flash recovery ROM, you must have stock recovery on your device. In case you’ve TWRP Custom Recovery installed already, you can rollback to stock recovery by using fastboot command: “fastboot flash recovery recovery.img”. You can find stock recovery file in any official .tgz ROM archive.

Now let’s continue with step-by-step tutorial on how to use Mi PC Suite:

1. Download and install Chinese MiPhoneManager (or Mi PC Suite depends on how you’ll would like to call it). You can find download links on our website.
2. Start Mi PC Suite and insert USB cable in your phone. Do not connect it to PC yet.
3. In the bottom left corner you can see Mi PC Suite version, click on it and update to the latest version.
4. Now we’ll need to choose the flashing method. “Recovery” will work for locked bootloader, while “fastboot” method works only with unlocked bootloader.
5. Use volume buttons to navigate and press “Power” button to choose the required flashing method.
6. After you’ve selected the flashing method, connect your phone to PC.
7. In Mi Flash you’ll see a new window with Chinese language buttons. Search the web to find the translation.

How to flash Xiaomi Mi5S with XiaoMiTool

This is an unofficial software, which was created to make flashing much easier. You can download latest version of XiaoMiTool here. This tool will work perfectly for both unlocked and locked bootloader.

Download XiaoMiTool: XMT_0.4.1.exe.zip

1. Download and install Chinese MiPhoneManager (Mi PC Suite) as well as MiFlash Tool.
2. Start XiaoMiTool and connect your phone to PC.
3. Enable Developer options and USB-Debugging on your phone.
4. Now use the XiaoMiTool to install required ROM version. The interface is really simple, so I think there’s no additional instructions needed. It just requires the basic knowledge of English language.
