How to Install This Update

Download the Recovery ROM, move it to the internal storage and choose Settings → About phone → (tap the OS card) → three dots → Choose update package. This keeps your data, but only works for a Global phone on an older version. For a clean install or a region change, flash the Fastboot ROM with Mi Flash (unlocked bootloader required). Step-by-step instructions are on the Redmi Note 8 firmware page.
