Disclaimer: This process is performed at your own risk. We are not responsible for any data loss, bricked devices, or damage. Please ensure your device codename is breeze (Redmi 13 5G / Note 13R / POCO M6 Plus 5G). Flashing this file on the 4G "moon" version will permanently damage the device. If you have any problems, please drop a comment on the thread.
Please verify your device model carefully before flashing:
- Codename Match: This firmware is ONLY for devices with the codename "breeze".
- Wrong Device Risk: Do NOT flash this on the Redmi 13 4G (codename "moon") or POCO M6 4G ("moon"). The 4G model uses a MediaTek chipset, and flashing the 5G firmware will hard-brick the device.
- Cross-Brand Flashing: If you are flashing between the Redmi and POCO firmware versions, you MUST keep the bootloader UNLOCKED. Selecting "Clean all and lock" on a cross-brand ROM will BRICK the phone.
