Mi 9 has reached EOL (end-of-life) status in Xiaomi's official catalog: support has ended, new firmware and security patches are no longer released, and the device will not receive MIUI 13.
The new MIUI 12.5 update is not necessarily the best. Before updating Mi 9 (cepheus), read reviews on XDA Developers or the Mi Community forum. If installing a Flash File, full ROM, or the new OTA update caused issues, please let us know in the comments and mention the firmware region and version number.

Why can’t I click and download on the download links?
This error occurred in some browsers. It has already been fixed.
I’m unable to update after downloading any of the file for Mi 9 Global. Need help to be upgraded to Android 11. Thank you!
Try to flash via Fastboot with PC and MiFlash Pro.
