What is the version name, ROM version of MIUI version in the name of the ROM file?

With Stable ROM, it is usually updated about 1 month, 2 months, or maybe longer without specific data. But these are stable ROM versions, the least error recorded by users, new features are often not updated immediately in this ROM, but in a release process for users to experience first on the Developer Version.
On MIUI 6 platform, the name and version number of ROM are conventionally in the form of V6.X.X.0 XXXXXXX with the first two X.X characters representing the version number, the larger the 7 new X characters XXXXXXX is the code Country and Android version code.

For example:

V6.5.3.0.KXDMICD
V6.6.4.0.LXHCNCF
K stands for Kitkat (Android 4.4.4)
L stands for Lolipop (Android 5.0)
CN is ROM China
MI is an International ROM

With ROM Developer, once a week update on every Friday. All new features are always updated, giving users experience and recording feedback.

The name and number of the ROM version are conventionally in the form of X.Y.Z with X being the issuing year, Y is the release month and Z is the release date.

For example:

5.7.10 means ROM released on July 10, 2015.

ANSWER SOME COMMON QUESTIONS

What ROM version should I use for my device?

Answer: Depending on your purpose, if you want to use Vietnamese, you should definitely choose Global version, China version not only does not have Vietnamese but also font error in Vietnamese. Second, do you like to always use the new feature? If you don't need to be stable, then choose Stable is the best.

Which way should the ROM be installed? Install directly on the computer via Updater, use Recovery or Fastboot?

Answer: Whichever leads to the same result, you see which one is convenient. Fastboot requires computers so it will be more inconvenient. Fastboot is also used for the purpose of saving the device in case of suspension.

Why when I bought the device, there were many Chinese "garbage" applications included and the boot screen with the network logo but some time after installing the ROM China to send the warranty did not have these "junk"?

Answer: It is because when buying the device, the device is integrated ROM customized for Chinese network operators.

Why do I install from Global version to China version that is disturbed, lost wave?

Answer: Some cases due to ROM background transfer from Global to China are left with incompatible "junk" components, resulting in errors. How to fix just reinstall the fastboot ROM and choose Flash All to work stably
