Flashing Requirements
- Correct codename: In fastboot mode, run fastboot getvar product; proceed only if it returns moon.
- Bootloader unlocked: Xiaomi fastboot ROMs require an unlocked bootloader; otherwise flashing will fail or be blocked.
- Region match: Choose VNTMIXM, VNTRUXM, VNTIDXM, VNTEUXM, VNTTWXM or VNTTRXM to match your phone’s original region for proper languages, bands and OTA behavior.
- PC and tools: Windows PC, Xiaomi USB drivers, Mi Flash Tool and a reliable USB‑C cable with at least ~15 GB free disk space.
- Power and backup: Charge the device above 60% and back up photos, apps and internal storage, because the recommended “clean all” flash wipes user data.
How to Flash the Firmware
These moon fastboot packages are designed for flashing via Xiaomi Mi Flash Tool or the included fastboot scripts, giving you a clean reinstall that often solves deep software issues, lag and abnormal battery drain after major HyperOS changes.
- Download and extract: Download the correct moon_…_images_… fastboot ROM from the table above and extract it until you see the images folder and flash_all*.bat files.
- Prepare Mi Flash: Install Xiaomi USB drivers and Mi Flash Tool on your Windows PC, then open Mi Flash and select the folder where you extracted the ROM.
- Enter fastboot mode: Power off the phone, hold Volume Down + Power to enter fastboot, then connect it to the PC via USB and click “Refresh” in Mi Flash to confirm detection.
- Choose flash mode: In Mi Flash, select the clean all option for a full wipe (recommended for bug fixing) and hit “Flash”, keeping the cable connected until the process completes successfully.
- First boot: Once Mi Flash shows success, reboot the phone; the first boot into HyperOS 2 after a clean flash can take several minutes while apps and services are optimized.
For detailed, step‑by‑step flashing tutorials with pictures and videos tailored to your preferred tool, follow these official‑style guides: use Xiaomi Mi Flash Tool (full fastboot ROM) or the generic flash_all.bat fastboot script guide if you flash via command line.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What problems does this HyperOS 2.0.203.0/205.0 firmware fix on Redmi 13 / POCO M6?
Users coming from older HyperOS 2 builds reported control center flicker, laggy transitions and poor standby time, which 2.0.203.0 and 2.0.205.0 aim to smooth out through system stability and UI fixes. Xiaomi’s own bug reports also confirm that battery drain on POCO M6/Redmi 13 has been addressed in recent HyperOS maintenance updates.
Can I cross‑flash a different region build (for example Global on a Turkey phone)?
Cross‑flashing is technically possible with an unlocked bootloader, but differing modem configs, regulations and OTA channels make it safer to stay with your original region (e.g., VNTTRXM for Turkey). If you decide to cross‑flash, research compatibility for your exact model and accept that updates and features may not behave as intended.
How do I confirm that my phone is really the moon variant?
Boot into fastboot mode and on your PC run fastboot getvar product; for Redmi 13 / POCO M6, the product string must show moon before you use any ROM from this page. If you see a different codename, look up the correct firmware for that codename instead of forcing a moon build.
Is this firmware official and safe to install?
The listed files come from Xiaomi’s bigota servers or trusted mirrors that host untouched official packages, and their version numbers match Xiaomi’s update tracker entries for moon. Safety still depends on correct usage: you must match codename and region, keep the battery charged, follow Mi Flash instructions and accept the inherent risks of manual flashing.
