The POCO F6 and Redmi Turbo 3 share the internal codename peridot and deliver flagship‑class performance with a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chip, up to 16 GB RAM and a 6.67‑inch 1.5K 120 Hz AMOLED display.
Despite the powerful hardware, many owners report HyperOS 2 annoyances such as faster battery drain than HyperOS 1, laggy control center animations, delayed settings/phone app opening and heat spikes right after reboot.
The new HyperOS 2.0.207.0 / 2.0.205.0 fastboot ROMs for all peridot regions, plus the Xiaomi.eu PERIDOT OS2.0.207.0 custom ROM, bring updated Android 15 security patches and system optimizations that help improve stability, smoothness and security when installed cleanly on POCO F6 / Redmi Turbo 3.

Flashing Requirements
- Correct device and codename: In fastboot mode, run fastboot getvar product and proceed only if it returns peridot.
- Region‑matched ROM: Use VNPCNXM, VNPMIXM, VNPRUXM, VNPINXM, VNPIDXM, VNPTWXM or VNPEUXM that matches your phone’s original market to avoid band/OTA issues.
- Unlocked bootloader: All fastboot ROMs and the Xiaomi.eu ZIP require an unlocked bootloader on POCO F6 / Redmi Turbo 3.
- PC and tools: Windows PC, Xiaomi USB drivers, Mi Flash Tool, working USB‑C cable and at least 15–20 GB free disk space.
- Backup and battery: Charge above 60% and back up internal storage, because a clean flash will erase apps, data and settings.
How to Flash the Firmware
The official peridot fastboot ROMs are meant for Xiaomi Mi Flash Tool or the included flash_all*.bat scripts, while the Xiaomi.eu ZIP is installed through a custom recovery or its own fastboot package depending on the release.
- Download and extract stock ROM: Download the correct peridot_…_images_OS2.0.205.0/207.0… file above and extract it until the images folder and flash_all*.bat scripts appear.
- Set up Mi Flash: Install Xiaomi drivers, open the Mi Flash Tool and browse to the extracted firmware folder.
- Enter fastboot mode: Power off the phone, hold Volume Down + Power to enter fastboot, connect it to the PC and click “Refresh” in Mi Flash to confirm detection.
- Flash with “clean all”: Choose the clean all option in Mi Flash, press “Flash” and wait for success without disconnecting the cable or powering off the device.
- First boot checks: Reboot into HyperOS 2 and expect a longer first boot while apps are optimized; then monitor battery drain, smoothness and thermals over the next few days.
For Xiaomi.eu PERIDOT OS2.0.207.0, follow the official Xiaomi.eu install instructions for peridot, which usually involve an unlocked bootloader and flashing the ZIP from a custom recovery environment rather than Mi Flash. If you prefer command‑line fastboot instead of Mi Flash for the official ROMs, use this illustrated flash_all.bat HyperOS fastboot guide that explains how to run Xiaomi’s scripts safely.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What does HyperOS 2.0.207.0 actually change on POCO F6 / Redmi Turbo 3?
For both the Chinese and global peridot builds, OS2.0.207.0 updates the Android security patch to about November 2025 and notes increased system security and core system optimizations. While not a feature‑rich update, it provides a more up‑to‑date security baseline and small stability refinements compared with earlier HyperOS 2 releases.
Will this firmware fix HyperOS 2 battery drain on my peridot?
Some Redmi Turbo 3 users reported that HyperOS 2.0 initially consumed more battery than HyperOS 1, especially in standby. Newer HyperOS 2 maintenance builds, including those in late 2025, are part of Xiaomi’s broader effort to address excess battery drain across devices, and a clean flash often helps more than an in‑place OTA.
Why does my POCO F6 still feel laggy on HyperOS 2?
Users of custom EU builds on peridot have described laggy control‑center animations, 2–3 second delays opening settings pages and short periods of heavy lag after reboots. Stock HyperOS 2 fastboot ROMs combined with a clean install, reduced animation scale and limited background apps usually reduce those symptoms, though individual results vary.
Is it safe to flash the Xiaomi.eu peridot ROM instead of the official global build?
Xiaomi.eu ROMs are community‑maintained builds that repackage Chinese firmware with extra languages and tweaks, and many peridot owners use them successfully. However, they are unofficial, require an unlocked bootloader and custom recovery, and should only be installed if you are comfortable following Xiaomi.eu’s own documentation and accepting the added risk.
Can I cross‑flash a different region’s fastboot ROM on my peridot?
With an unlocked bootloader, it is technically possible to install, for example, a global VNPMIXM ROM on a Chinese VNPCNXM device, but regional builds are tuned for specific bands and OTA channels. For most users, sticking to the original region code shown in firmware trackers is the safest way to avoid network or update problems.
