How to Install Android 14 ROMs on Poco F5/Redmi Note 12 Turbo

The below process will wipe off all the data from your device, so take a complete device backup beforehand. Droidwin and its members wouldn’t be held responsible in case of a thermonuclear war, your alarm doesn’t wake you up, or if anything happens to your device and data by performing the below steps.

STEP 1: Install Android SDK

First and foremost, you will have to install the Android SDK Platform Tools on your PC. This is the official ADB and Fastboot binary provided by Google and is the only recommended one. So download it and then extract it to any convenient location on your PC. Doing so will give you the platform-tools folder, which will be used in this guide to install custom ROMs on Poco F5/Pro/Redmi Note 12 Turbo/K60

STEP 2: Enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlocking

Next up, you will also have to enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlocking on your device. The former will make your device recognizable by the PC in ADB mode. This will then allow you to boot your device to Fastboot Mode. On the other hand, OEM Unlocking is required to carry out the bootloader unlocking.

So head over to Settings > About Phone > Tap on Build Number 7 times > Go back to Settings > System > Advanced > Developer Options > Enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlocking.

STEP 3: Unlock Bootloader on Poco F5/Redmi Note 12 Turbo

Next up, you will also have to unlock the device’s bootloader. Do keep in mind that doing so will wipe off all the data from your device and could nullify its warranty as well. So if that’s all well and good, then please refer to our detailed guide on How to Unlock Bootloader on any Xiaomi Device.

How to Install CalyxOS on Poco F5

While the CalyxOS page for unofficial builds [such as for our device] states that we should sideload the ROM, however, you shouldn’t do so. This is because CalyxOS isn’t providing its own AOSP Recovery and hence we have to use a custom recovery like TWRP. And when it comes to using TWRP [or PitchBlack and OrangeFox for that matter], you should never use ADB Sideload, instead always use its Install option. So with that in mind, let’s get started.

Download and install the TWRP Recovery on the device.
Then boot your device to TWRP via the below command:
```
adb reboot recovery
```
From TWRP Recovery, go to Wipe and select Format Data.
Then type YES in the space provided and hit the checkmark.
Download the latest firmware for your region from here
Now transfer the ROM and firmware files to your device.
Now go to Install, select the firmware ZIP file, and flash it.
Then go to Install, select the ROM ZIP file, and then flash it
Once done, again go to Wipe > Format Data > Type in YES > and hit the blue checkmark.
Finally, go to Reboot and select System. Your device will reboot to the newly installed OS.
