Hello MI Fans, Lets checkout on How we can Install FASTBOOTD Drivers on your PC which is required for devices shipping with Android 10.

So Now with Android 10 we have got Dynamic Prtition. Checkout it's structure below. ![]() So in simple words it is nothing but moving system,vendor,product,odm under one Partition [SUPER]. Now with this Type of Partiton we cannot use the below commands to flash system,vendor,product from fastboot mode. We need fastbootd to do the job
