The Xiaomi Mi Note 10 / Mi CC9 Pro (codename tucana), launched in late 2019, was a true game-changer for mobile photography. It made history as the world’s first smartphone to feature a 108MP camera sensor, ushering in a new era of detail and clarity in mobile imaging. Complementing its revolutionary Penta-camera system, the device featured a premium, dual-curved 6.47-inch AMOLED display, the capable Snapdragon 730G chipset, and an enormous 5260 mAh battery with 30W fast charging. For owners of this camera-centric powerhouse, this page provides official fastboot ROMs for China, Global, and Indonesia, plus the highly regarded Xiaomi.eu custom ROM to fix software issues or perform a clean installation.
Important: Always confirm your device codename is tucana. The Mi Note 10 / Mi CC9 Pro is not the same as the Mi Note 10 Lite (toco). Flashing the wrong firmware on your device will result in a hard brick.

For a step-by-step process, drivers, and troubleshooting, read our Ultimate Mi Flash Guide.
- Boot into Fastboot mode (Power + Volume Down).

/imagesdirectory in Mi Flash Tool. - Select clean all for a safe installation (avoid clean all and lock unless you are on the correct stock ROM for your region).
FAQs
Q1. What is the difference between the Mi Note 10 and the Mi CC9 Pro?
They are the same device. “Mi CC9 Pro” was the name used for the release in Mainland China, while “Mi Note 10” was the name for the global market. Both share the tucana codename and use the same firmware.
Q2. Can I flash this ROM on a Mi Note 10 Lite (toco)?
No, you must not. The Mi Note 10 Lite (toco) has a different main camera (64MP vs 108MP) and other hardware differences. Their firmwares are not interchangeable, and cross-flashing will brick your device.
Q3. What was the final official update for the Mi Note 10?
The Mi Note 10 launched with Android 9 (Pie) and received its final major OS upgrade to Android 11. The last major MIUI version released for the device was MIUI 13.
Q4. The Xiaomi.eu ROM is a .zip file. How is it installed?
The .zip file is a recovery-flashable ROM. You cannot use Mi Flash Tool. You must first unlock the bootloader, install a custom recovery like TWRP, and then flash the .zip file through the recovery’s interface.
Troubleshooting
- Drivers: If your PC isn’t detecting the phone, try reinstalling the Xiaomi USB drivers, using a different USB port (USB 2.0 is often more reliable), and running Mi Flash Tool as an administrator.
- Fastboot errors:
- “error: not catch checkpoint” → This common error means the wrong folder has been selected in Mi Flash Tool. Make sure you select the parent folder that was created after extraction, not the images folder itself.
- “Anti rollback error” → You are trying to flash an older firmware with a lower security patch level. Xiaomi’s Anti-Rollback Protection (ARB) prevents this downgrade.
- EDL mode: For a hard-bricked device that cannot enter fastboot, EDL mode is the last resort. It requires using hardware test points and an authorized account, and is not recommended for novice users.
