Xiaomi has been rolling out MIUI 12 for the eligible devices for over two months now. Almost all the supported handsets have so far received at least one beta build. Additionally, some of them have also begun to receive Stable Beta like the Redmi Note 8 Pro.

The Redmi Note 8 Pro MIUI 12 Stable Beta update is only available for the global variant. It comes with build number V12.0.0.4 QGGMIXM and weighs 632MB in size.

It is currently rolling to units with beta authorized Mi Account. Normally, any user can install any type of MIUI build on their Xiaomi/Redmi smartphones via custom recovery. However, the same cannot be said for the Redmi Note 8 Pro.

This device codenamed Begonia is one of the infamous phones in the modding community. Due to the MediaTek chipset underneath it, it does not support the usual ‘Download Mode’. Therefore, to flash the factory ROM, users need to boot the handset into EDL mode and also require an authorized Mi account to install stock firmware.

Hence, Xiaomi has strictly warned users to avoid flashing the currently rolling out MIUI 12 Stable Beta update on their Redmi Note 8 Pro if they are not part of the beta program.
