Before flashing any ROM follow these 2 points :

  • After flashing Copy the back up file from PC or OTG support respectively to: Internal Storage-->MIUI -> Backup-->All Back up
  • Then go to  Settings-->Additional Settings--> Backup & reset -->Local Bakcup--> You will find the backup file -->Tap on it to restore

How To Flash Stable and Developer ROM.
