Firmware Xiaomi Mi3. Firmware Xiaomi Mi3 Xiaomi Mi3 Update

At the end of January 2018, Xiaomi Mi 3 and Mi 4 smartphones finally received an update to a stable version of the global MIUI 9.2 Global Stable. For devices, the latest current version "9.2" immediately became available. The firmware sent through OTA received the number v9.2.2.0.mxdmiek.

Recall that Smartphones Xiaomi 3 / Mi 4 were supposed to be updated in December 2017, as, according to a schedule of a stable nine, they hit the third stage. Delayed with the advent of the update, the developers decided to compensate for the fact that they began to send the firmware based on the new version of MIUI 9.2.

MI 3/4 received update MIUI 9.2.2.0

The only unpleasant nuance, which will upset the owners of Xiaomi 4 and Mi 3, is that the update is based on an outdated Android operating system 6.0.1 (MMB29M).

The MarshMallow version itself in 2018 can be called morally outdated, despite. It is also worth considering the fact that the majority work on the OS is not lower than Nougat (7.0).

I would like that the developers focused on the update of the operating system. Although the chances of the Xiaomi Mi 4 or Mi 3 smartphone will receive Android Oreo close to zero. The devices themselves are released in 2013 and 2014.

Download v9.2.2.0.mxdmiek.

The update will fly through OTA within a month. However, if you did not receive a notification after two weeks, we recommend downloading an official release from the site and set manually.

Additionally about the firmware:

• Security patch from 2017-06-01.
• Kernel - MPSS.DI.4.0-EAA9D90.

FastBoot.

Recovery.

Archive size - 752 megabytes.

Compared to the size of updates, where the size of the firmware takes two times more space.

What's new?

Like any Xiaomi smartphone, updated to the new version of the MIUI graphic shell, the devices received an impressive list of changes that are almost similar from the lists of recent weekly updates.

Dear readers, if among you there are a few owners of classic MI 4 or MI 3, share, please, with your impressions and leave reviews about Miui 9.2.2.0.mxdmiek. It can help other users with solving their problems.

Buying a router for home network moment is sufficiently responsible, because The stable work of the Internet on all home gadgets depends on this device. When Xiaomi released a lot of his home-based solutions to the market, they were almost the most affordable on the market of such devices, especially given their low price when ordering from Chinese online stores. However, as it turned out in practice, such routers are not entirely adapted to our region, in almost all there is no Russian language in the admin panel, the functionality is limited and the potential of iron is not able to disclose. Wine all raw software (firmware).

Consider changing the firmware on the example of the Xiaomi Mi WiFi Router 3c router. This is a low price category router, however, changing its firmware, we will be able to make an excellent device with the remarkable potential and the capabilities of ASUS routers with Padavan software, which are much more expensive.

So, we proceed directly to the change of software. To do this, we will apply the already prepared image of the firmware, but we will have to disassemble the router for the programmer to overwrite the contents of the SPI memory. The router is open is easy, a few latches and a screw in the center of the bottom cover under the sticker. Opening the box I find it there the chip of type 25Q128 that interests us that means the container128 emigeration (16 MB).
To reprogram it, it must be removed from the board and install it in the programmer.
After that, you load the prepared image in the microcircuit.
Previously, we make a copy of the content, just in case. After several minutes, everything is ready and the chip must be saved again on the router's board.
Now you can check the operation of the device. Include, connect with an Ethernet computer. Cablemia and perform a test test. We start the browser on the computer, enter in the address bar 192.168.1.1 and press the Enter key. Bunch Name / password As usual in any Admin / Admin router.
Well, it seems everything works. The firmware was successful, the router received new excellent opportunities and the Russian-speaking interface of the admin panel.
Well, here's another gadget left the chipmaster workshop in excellent condition.
The client received new opportunities and ease of use, and we are for this a small monetary reward.
In turn, we wish all excellent gadgets and .... do not break.

The theme of the firmware of the Xiaomi Mi Router router is very relevant for several reasons. The main thing is that all its interface in Chinese without any alternative. Therefore, in order to more or less understand what is written in the stock firmware, you need to install an additional extension to the browser. You can use, but uncomfortable. It would seem what these troubles are? Buy yourself another router with Russian localization and use. But low cost at large technical indicators and functionality of the router. Analogues from other manufacturers sold here are per thousand and more rubles more expensive.

What are the options?

Constantly use the Chinese version, as you understand, it is impossible. Therefore, I decided to make this leadership in which I will tell about two possibilities of the firmware of the router:

• On official English
• On the version of Padavan, or ASUS

This instruction is suitable for all models with a USB port - the Xiaomi Mi Router 3 firmware occurs just like MINI.

Official firmware router Xiaomi Mi WiFi 3 into English

So - how to translate Xiaomi Router 3 into English and no longer bother with constant with these endless spids.

The procedure is simple:

• Download the English firmware Xiaomi
• Download it to the router
• Re-set up already in the English version

Xiaomi Mi WiFi Router router firmware from Padavan for ASUS

Another Chinese language solution in the control panel is to establish the custom version of the firmware on the Xiaomi router. The most successful today is the Padavan firmware, or as it is also called from ASUS by the name of the company for which it was originally done. The installation process is not the easiest, but if you do everything right, it will work out without any problems if you even know how to use the computer a little. Therefore, in this article, I tried to set out the entire process of updating on the router as much as possible on the example of the Xiaomi Mini model for your convenience.

To achieve the end result, we will need to flash Xiaomi Mi Router several times:

• Install the original Xiaomi firmware for developers
• Install the Pandora firmware
• Install asus firmware

Firmware for developers

Let's start. First of all, we go to the Xiaomi download page in the "ROM" tab and download the "ROM FOR" package for your model (Mini, 3, 3C, 3G, etc.) from the right column is the official version of software for developers. With it, we will be able to control the deep firmware of the router.

Next, go to the adjustment of the router at the address, in the section "General Settings\u003e System Condition" and select the downloaded file for the firmware. In my screenshots, you will see the translated interface pages through the integrated Google translator built into Chrome - this is the most convenient to use the stock firmware. When working for convenience, use the cable connection of the computer to the Xiaomi router - it will not be necessary to connect to it at each reboot to it.

Refracting the router is occurring - at this time it cannot be turned off from meals.

Download the necessary files and programs

After rebooting the router, you again set it up for connecting to the Internet from your provider and go to the repository of the router club, where the craftsmen regularly lay out the latest Padavan firmware and not only in several different routers. Scroll down the pages and go to the folder with the last date.

In this folder we find another - XRM_BASE, it lies the desired firmware from ASUS, download it to your computer.

In the Personal Office Xiaomi Mi Router we find the number of your account - it is to the right of the menu next to the photo of the profile.

Login will have "root" - the password is individual.

Click on the button with the hieroglyphs to the right of the password and then again in the pop-up window, also the right button - and download the file to connect the SSH protocol to Xiaomi Mi Router.

It must be placed on the pure, formatted in the FAT32 flash drive of 4 to 8 GB.

Finally, the last thing you need to download the software package from our storage for ASUS firmware.

Firmware from Pandora

We proceed to the firmware itself. We take out the power cable from our router, take the USB flash drive and insert it into the USB connector on the Xiaomi router.
Next, clamp the "RESET" button and insert the electrical power cable. We wait until the LED flashes in yellow and let go of the "Reset" button. If everything is fine, the LED will change the color to blue. If it becomes red, repeat all manipulations with a flash drive and a router first.

After that, run from the same archive the HFS.exe program from the same archive and add a Pandorabox.bin file to it. This is a virtual server that we run on the computer and from which we will firm the firmware on the router.

The next step is running the Putty.exe program from the same archive is an SSH client that will allow you to connect to the "insides" of Xiaomi. Drive in the address bar of the IP of the Router - 192.168.31.1. The remaining values \u200b\u200bare left as it is - and click the "Open" button.

A new dialog box opens, where we will first be asked to enter a login and password from the router - remember the information we received in your account on the Xiaomi website. Login - "Root"

and the password that the site issued you. When entering the password, the characters will not be displayed, so do not make a mistake. With a successful connection, a greeting from the Chinese will appear.

Next, drive the team " cD / TMP."- To get to a folder with temporal router files.
After that give the team " wGET link_Name_File_Program_hfs.exe.". In my case, it looks like "Wget http://192.168.151.1/pandorabox.bin"

Next, it is necessary to determine wherever it is in your particular device to install the firmware. This is done by the team " cAT / PROC / MTD". After it, a list appears in which you need to find one of the values \u200b\u200b- "Firmware", "OS1" or "FirmwareStub". There will be exactly one of them that we will use. I fell "OS1"

Now we carry out the team that will save our router to the version from Pandora:

mTD -R WRITE /TMP/pandorabox.bin OS1

Instead of OS1, as you understand, you can have Firmware or FirmwareStub

The router will start flashing, after which it will reboot.

Xiaomi Firmware from Asus (Padavan)

Now that Pandora rolled, run again HFS.exe and add the ASUS firmware file in it - the one that has downloaded at the very beginning from the RouterClub repository.

Downloaded. Now restart once again the PUTTY.EXE program and connect again to the router, now on a new IP, which is set in the new firmware - 192.168.1.1

Here we need to be updated to log in, for this we use the "root" login, the "admin" password.
Next, go to the catalog of the team again. cD / TMP."And pour into it the firmware firmware from Padavan - ASUS -" wget http://192.168.1.151/naping_file.trx"- The link again take from the HFS program.

After that, roll the firmware by the team " mTD -R WRITE /TMP/Nap_TRX FIRMWARE"- Note, here you already use the" Firmware "command at the end.

And we are waiting for the reboot of the router, after which in the browser, we recruit it IP - 192.168.1.1, for which we will get into the admin. For authorization, use a pair of Admin-Admin login password. To connect to a WiFi router to the Router Club network, use the "1234567890" password.

The reward of our long work will be a new administrator with many additional features that did not have in stock firmware. For example, the Mobile Modems Connection function and distribution of the guest WiFi network at 5 GHz will now be available, and this is only the most-minimum changes that have occurred.

I hope you, too, everything turned out!

For greater visibility, you give two video guides that step by step show the whole process. By the way, installing Podovan firmware on Xiaomi Mi Wi-Fi Router 3 and 3G has features from Mini - pay attention to it!

How to return the official firmware on the Xiaomi Mi Router 3 router?

I used the Xiaomi router long enough on different firmware, but for many blog readers, the process of installing a third-party version is too complicated, so more often I still ask questions about how to work with Xiaomi routers in the usual official version of the admin. Therefore, I decided to return everything back and roll back the device to the original Chinese version to create a series of articles about the adjustment of the router, which is called, "out of the box."

Of course, I will share with you my experience, how to roll back from custom firmware to the official Xiaomi.
So, for starters, we go for Xiaomi routers. Here, too, everything will be in Chinese, so the last time we will use the browser translator built into Google Chrome.

After the page is readable, switch to the "ROM" tab to appear a list of routers to which there is a firmware.
We find our model in it and download any of the two versions of the software - Stable or Developer

The file will have some kind of name - we rename it in

After that, I throw a firmware file Miwifi.bin on it - in the very root and so that nothing else was on it.

• disconnect the router from the power cable
• insert a USB flash drive in its USB port
• click the RESET pin pin
• and at the same time with the joined button plug the power cord back
• after 5-10 seconds, when the orange light flies, let go of the reset button

Hello! In this article we will talk about the powerful Chinese flagship from Xiaomi, which is called "Xiaomi Mi3". This device has a set of pretty powerful components, see:

• 5 inches screen with a resolution of 1080x1920 px.;
• rear camera on 13 megapixel with autofocus and flash;
• rechargeable battery with a capacity of 3050 mAh;
• satellite navigation GPS / GLONASS;
• set of standard communications (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, etc.).

A smartphone is performed in two versions - 16 GB and 64 GB of internal memory. It is not possible to increase this space, not provided by the manufacturer, so it is better to immediately choose a phone with a large volume. Another problem of this device is the lack of Russian localization in the standard firmware version. But it has already become possible to correct this situation. Russian firmware for Xiaomi MI3 is available for downloading on the link below, download it and carefully study the installation instructions.
