Oh

Free up to 10gb of space and retry again

Reason behind that is insufficient space, you'll have to re-download
Freed up to 10gb of space and used the same file that gave the "couldn't verify update" error and it worked grin

Guess the quest for bigger ROM never ends cry

A lot of reasons. But I can't pinpoint it for your case.
Low storage was the reason.
Thanks for the help.

Please my redmi 12c does not perform split screen




If I press for long to give me the split screen option ,it goes straight to setting (picture 2)

Please what can I do

Or update to android 13 miui14

Are you sure you are checking the right device?

You can't jump all the way from 11 to android 13. The chances of it working is very slim.

This is your device. Your device is KE

SG and SY are the same device. The difference is one has NFC and the other doesn't.

How to get back your lost/stolen REDMI(xiaomi) devices.(long read,kindly note,I don't have writing skills also,just trying to pass out information).

This post here is about one of the most underrated features that comes embedded in the MIUI(soon to be hyper os) system.
Many OG's like us who have been using Xiaomi devices since the days of Redmi note 3,note 4x,note 5 etc,have previously or at one time uses this feature to locate our devices when it was stolen,better still we use it to lock the device to render it useless to the thieves.

But to many new REDMI(Xiaomi users)who are just joining the family,really do not know the importance of this great feature called mi account.

In other words mi account(similar to the iOS iteration called iCloud)is an account Xiaomi lets you register on all devices running MIUI(using custom ROM won't let you do these)rom,it has basic features like back up to the cloud,also it can store your pictures ,contacts,etc,you can read up more about it,but the main reason for these write up is its ability to locate your stolen/lost devices.

The main point,on how to use mi account to locate your stolen/lost devices.

Firstly you need to be registered on the mi account platform,it's very easy,
Go to settings,scroll to the mi account section,ensure your internet is enabled,
Sign up for a mi account,using phone number or email(higly recommended should in case you loose access to your SIM).
Once you are all done and set up,you are good to go,ensure the account stays active and registered on your device,after wards,scroll to the settings on your mi account and activate the find my device feature for free.
Now in the scenario where the unfortunate incident occurs and your device is stolen/lost,look for another internet enabled device,log on to i.mi.com ,your login email and password would be required,once logged in,use the find my device features,it would pin point exactly (to the most precise location,it would even show the exact house,street,etc) the phone is currently located.
Now I am sure you are wondering,what If the phone is switched off,or on airplane mode,good question,the device would at the point of going off,store the exact last known location before going off,that is where it would ping at,and the very next time,the device is switched on,it would save that same location and it would show you exactly where it is.
Also from the i.mi.com you can activate lost mode,this feature would ensure the thieves don't get access to your device,and also you can drop a SOS message on the lost device feature,in the case the phone is lost,if a good Samaritan finds it,once it switches on,the sos message containing your contact information can be used to contact you to come get your phone.
Also on the mi account settings on your device,you have the option to enable your device to send a cordinates of its last known location before it is switched off.
Also it is important to note that,once a mi account is active on a device and not signed out,that phone can never be factory reset to be used by another person,as it would always ask for the former details of its previous owner before any other individual can use it.

I hope you all find this piece of information useful.

This is Android 12 based on MIUI 13 not Android 13. So you have to download this particular ROM first to install manually before upgrading to the next version which should Android 13 and MIUI 14

I have said severally use a download manager to download large items because any slight fluctuation on browsers the zip file becomes broken.

On that link you have options to select which ever mirror you want to use from mirror 1 and so on.

You will get the update when it is out. Every device to it's ROM.

12 Pro + 5G Android 14 update should come with HyperOS
