Check this option if you haven't received the Xiaomi HyperOS 2 update yet.


For many users, this means the Xiaomi HyperOS 2 update may arrive later than expected, as updates are rolled out in phases depending on the region. However, there's a trick to potentially getting the update sooner—by changing your region settings.

Why Updates Take Time

Xiaomi generally follows a phased approach for rolling out HyperOS updates, starting with certain regions before extending to others. If your region isn't part of the initial stages, you might have to wait longer for the update to reach your device. This gradual rollout helps address any issues in the early stages, but it also means users in later regions experience delays. As a result, some users will have to be patient until the update is made available in their region, especially if they are further along in the rollout process.


How to Get HyperOS Updates Faster If you're eager to try out HyperOS 2 before it reaches your region, follow these steps to potentially get the update sooner:


  1. Manually Check for Updates: Navigate to Settings > About Phone > System Updates and check if the update is available.
  2. Change Your Region: Go to Settings > Additional Settings > Region, and select Argentina, as this region often receives updates earlier. If Argentina doesn't work, try other regions like India or Singapore in that order.
  3. Check for Updates Again: Return to the System Updates section, where the update might now be available.
  4. Repeat the Process: If the update doesn’t show up, try switching to another region and repeat the steps until the update appears.

This method can help you get HyperOS 2 ahead of your region's scheduled rollout.

Will this affect your device?

Changing your region settings to receive the HyperOS 2 update ahead of its official rollout in your area is a simple trick that doesn't affect the overall functionality of your Xiaomi device. However, it’s important to note that some services or content that depend on localization may vary based on the region you select. This means certain features or apps may temporarily change to reflect the new region settings. For instance, regional content in apps like the Xiaomi app store, language preferences, or even available services could shift to match the selected country.But don’t worry—once you’ve downloaded the update, you can easily revert your region settings back to your original preferences without any problems. The system updates itself doesn't interfere with the regular operation of your phone, and once you return to your preferred region, everything will return to normal. So, if you’re keen to try out the new features of HyperOS 2 without waiting for your region’s official rollout, changing your region temporarily is a low-risk and effective solution.

To begin, you’ll need to manually check for the update. This is done by heading to Settings > About Phone > System Updates. Once there, tap Check for Updates, and see if the HyperOS 2 update is available. If it’s not showing up yet, you’ll need to switch your region to one that is receiving the update earlier. Argentina is usually the best choice for this, as updates often land there first.

To change your region, go to Settings > Additional Settings > Region, and select Argentina. After this, go back to the System Updates section and check again for the update. In most cases, this trick should make the update appear, as Argentina is often one of the first regions to receive new software versions.

If the update still doesn’t appear after selecting Argentina, don’t worry—there are other regions you can try. Some users have had success by switching to India or Singapore in that order. These countries tend to receive updates fairly quickly as well, and switching between them increases your chances of getting HyperOS 2 sooner.

Once you’ve successfully updated your device, you can switch your region back to your original one by simply following the same steps and selecting your home country. The update itself doesn’t alter your phone’s default language settings or system preferences, but localized content and services may change temporarily.

It’s important to be patient during this process, as sometimes the update can take a while to appear, even after changing regions. If after trying different regions, the update still doesn’t show up, it likely means that the update hasn’t yet been rolled out for your specific device. However, rest assured that it will arrive eventually, and you’ll be able to enjoy the latest version of HyperOS 2 soon enough.

This region-switching trick is a great way to speed up the process, especially if you’re eager to experience the new features, improvements, and optimizations that come with the HyperOS 2 update. Just keep in mind that while this can sometimes accelerate the rollout, it doesn’t guarantee an instant update. Keep trying, be patient, and you’ll soon be enjoying the benefits of HyperOS 2 on your Xiaomi device.
