How to Flash: A Safe Pre-Flight Checklist
This is a quick checklist for this device. For a complete tutorial on installing drivers, unlocking the bootloader, and troubleshooting, please read our master guide:
➡️ Read Our Ultimate Guide to Mi Flash Tool
- Enter Fastboot Mode: Power off your Xiaomi Mi 10i 5G. Then, hold the Volume Down + Power buttons until the Fastboot logo appears.
- Load Firmware: In Mi Flash Tool, click “select” and choose the extracted firmware folder (the folder containing the ‘images’ directory).
- Select Flash Option: At the bottom of the tool, select “clean all”. This performs a full wipe and is the safest option for a clean installation. Avoid “clean all and lock” unless you are certain you want to relock the bootloader.
