Xiaomi 13 (codename fuxi) is a compact flagship powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 platform, built for high refresh‑rate smoothness and sustained performance. After major updates, recurring real‑world complaints include battery drain in standby, extra heat while charging, and occasional instability that persists across incremental OTAs.
The firmware packages on this page provide clean, region-matched fastboot installs (and an optional xiaomi.eu build) to stabilize performance, refresh system partitions, and apply the newest platform/security fixes available for each branch.
Download Firmware for Xiaomi 13 (fuxi)
Choose the newest ROM that matches the phone’s original region suffix (CNXM/MIXM/EUXM/RUXM/TWXM/TRXM). HyperOS 3 (Android 16) here is China-only and may behave like an internal/test build in the wild, so it is best reserved for advanced users who specifically need WMCCNXM. The Turkey V14.0.3.0.TMCTRXM package is an older MIUI 14 Android 13 build and should not be used as a general downgrade target from newer HyperOS branches due to downgrade/anti-rollback risks on Xiaomi devices.
Variant selection notes: Xiaomi 13 is identified as fuxi in multiple ROM/device references. Region suffix must match the device’s original firmware channel (CNXM/MIXM/EUXM/RUXM/TWXM/TRXM) to avoid OTA issues, network quirks, and region compliance mismatches.
Complete Device & Firmware Overview
- Device Name:
- Xiaomi 13.
- Codename:
fuxi.- Chipset:
- Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 (SM8550).
- Firmware Types on this page:
- Official Fastboot ROMs (.tgz), custom ROM (.zip), custom recovery (.img).
- Android / HyperOS branches:
- HyperOS 3 Android 16 (CNXM), HyperOS 2 Android 15 (Global/EEA/RU/TW), plus an older MIUI 14 Android 13 (TRXM).
- Why clean flashing helps:
- Battery drain and overheating after HyperOS updates are widely discussed by users, and clean fastboot installs are commonly used to remove OTA residue and restore stability.
- Bootloader & downgrade rules:
- Xiaomi anti-rollback can reject unsafe downgrades via fastboot/Mi Flash, and downgrading with recovery tools can be riskier if rollback checks are bypassed.

- “Clean all and lock” wipes data and re-locks the bootloader; it is not appropriate for modified devices or mismatched regions.
- Required tools:
- Windows PC, Xiaomi drivers, Xiaomi Flash Tool for.tgz fastboot ROMs; ADB/Fastboot for recovery boot; TWRP for custom ZIP flashing.
CRUCIAL WARNING: These ROMs are strictly for Xiaomi 13 with codename fuxi; flashing the wrong region, a corrupted archive, or another codename can cause bootloops, lost network features, or an unrecoverable brick—verify fuxi and the correct CNXM/MIXM/EUXM/RUXM/TWXM/TRXM branch before flashing.
Preparation Before Flashing
Click here for the Xiaomi 13 (fuxi) pre-flash checklist
- Confirm codename + region suffix: Verify the device is Xiaomi 13 (
fuxi), then match the region code in Settings (CNXM/MIXM/EUXM/RUXM/TWXM/TRXM) with the ROM build suffix. - Create a full backup: Fastboot flashing usually wipes data; back up photos, authenticator codes, chats, and banking app credentials first.
- Battery level: Charge to at least 60% to prevent shutdown during multi‑gigabyte partition flashing.
- Install drivers and tools: Install Xiaomi USB/fastboot drivers and Xiaomi Flash Tool for official fastboot ROMs, plus ADB/Fastboot for recovery boot if using TWRP.
- Avoid risky downgrade paths: Confirm rollback compatibility before attempting any downgrade (especially from HyperOS 2/3 to MIUI 14), since Xiaomi anti‑rollback protections can hard‑brick devices when bypassed incorrectly.
