Hi guys,
I have the normal 16gb redmi note 2 on global stable rom. Planning to install the developer rom instead to get root access. But I read that the latest 6.1.8 firmware removed the root access option.
Question is, can I install the older developer rom 5.12.XX and still get the root access option?
If yes, which is recommended for best battery life?

I was on global dev rom for quite sometime, last monday updated to 6.1.8, as usual just flashed superSU.zip and my phone still rooted. When you going to update from stable rom to dev rom, make sure you fully wiped the phone fellow by restoring you precious data. So backup, backup by titanium backup/system backup first. I always done these two backup.

Why use global developer rom when you have global stable rom? Unless you are developer...

Understand that falshing the China Dev Rom gains Root access. Tell me does it affect any future OTAs ? or warranty ? And does chinese spam appear ..

For native root you must have Unlocked Bootloader even on Chinese Dev ROM... it won't affect any future updates if you are not using any Custom recovery.
and in Chinese Dev ROM there won't be any Google Services pre installed and lots of Chinese app will be there... hovever you can remove them if you are rooted... but again you need to have Bootloader unlocked to gain root access... and it is suggested to not flash a dev fast boot ROM and flash Chinese Stable Fastboot ROM and then update to latest Chinese Dev.
MiPCSuite solve all problems, no need any CMD and fastboot. Save your information first - it's make clean installation!

Thanks my friend. But had a bad experience. I flashed the MI Chinese Stable Rom thru MI Flash. Sadly device got locked stating that this device id is associated with another device. Could not go beyond the startup menu. Could not even shut my phone. Went to the service center and back on Global Stable Rom. Applied for Unlocking permission. Approved by Xiaomi. However now the issue is that when connected, the phone is scanned upto 50% and then again this device is associated with another ID. So can someone pls help me.. How do i switch to a Chinese Dev Rom, get root permissions and get on with my life ??

Device locked after flashing Chinese ROM is strange...!!
I just unlocked Bootloader with Global Stable Then Flashed TWRP alka and then Flashed Latest MIUI CN dev ROM and all is working as it should be...!!!
now with Unlocking Bootloader...
the process is quite pain of a**...
it work sometimes doesn't work something, xiaomi needs to come up with better solution...!!
so far you can try each step from this guide
http://en.miui.com/thread-280561-1-1.html
and if it doesn't work try after 3- 4 days or even after week, it won't work if you keep trying each day. (strange but true)
after Unlocking you can either Install TWRP and install SuperSU to gain root access...!! but it will break Official OTA updates, you can still flash full ROM but OTA won't work anymore...!
EDIt..
you can try this without breaking OTA..

Hello,
I have received of this particular Redmi Note 3 Pro Prime Special Edition (3GB Ram one).
It comes with MIUI Global 7.3 Stable 7.3.7.0 (MHRMIDE).
Now I see there are so many different guides and version and I would like to confirm before proceeding.
Essentially I want to unlock the bootloader and install custom roms (CM).
What is the best way to proceed?
Install Developer Edition (miui_HMNote3ProtwGlobal_6.9.29_f35a25dd3f_6.0) downloaded from http://en.miui.com/a-232.html ?
I am planning to do it via Updater application from the phone.
Have made a request via website for unlocking the bootloader. Anything else I need to do?
Thanks
Almost everything same with kenzo (RMN3 Snapdragon).

make sure you are signed into both i.mi.com and your phone using the exact same credentials.
I've unlocked mine probably a dozen times now, with some rom's locking and me reflashing over and over again. No issues, never got stuck at 50%. I've only ever used my email account to link to Mi account, never my phone number.
Hey guys, some days ago i bought my xiaomi redmi note 3 kenzo (snapdragon). I am using the official stable miui rom right now but i want to use a custom Whats the best and most stable right now ? Im thinking of LineageOS and radon kernel, what do you think ? I am open to suggestions I would prefer a nougat rom but i read that there are still problems because xiaomi hasnt released yet nougat. The camera doesnt work or i have to use an non-stock app for the camera ? And one more thing. I want to unlock the bootloader with the official way. What exactly i must do ?
thanks !!!!!
for the official way to unlock, apply for permission on mi unlock site. just google it.
then first thing to do, create backup of modemst1 and modemst2.
flash twrp recovery and make backup of efs. (modemst1+modemst2)
now store that backup in a safe place.
Now there are many rom, i would suggest cm13 because quite frankly it is the most stable with not so many useless features.
for nougat yes lineage is a good choice. for kernel definitely radon is the best you can ask for.
because its been a long time since i flashed a device... is it safe if i do something wrong ? i mean if i have TWRP if i do something wrong i just revert back ? is there any possibility for something to go wrong even with the TWRP installation ? also if i install the CM 13 and radon kernel if i want to go back to Oficial Miui with stock kernel i just restore the backup i made ?
anyone?
Hi everyone, I want to use a Pie based ROM. Now I am using stock MIUI 9.6 Global bootloader unlocked. What would be the best procedure to flash a pie based ROM? And can I come back to MIUI if I want? What am I going to sacrifice if I flash treble ROM? I know It's a lot of questions but please try to answer it. Thanks in advance ?

If you have an unlocked bootloader, it's going to be easy. Install TWRP or OrangeFox Recovery. You will get the instructions in the respective pages of XDA. Then, take a complete backup of all partitions using TWRP/OrangeFox, back up the apps using Titanium Backup, and then get a ROM of your liking, and install it.
You are not going to sacrifice anything if you flash a treble ROM. You can revert to MIUI 10 at any point.
But do keep in mind that Android Pie ROMs are quite new and might have a bug or two.
Unlock Bootloader first
Flash twrp
Flash cusrom
Flash GApps
Flash Magisk (if you want to root)
Reboot

The posts above me has mentioned the method to flash custom treble ROM. In case you find any difficulty in flashing it, you can PM me. The procedure they mentioned are simple enough and the steps are user friendly. Take a recovery backup once you flash your custom ROM. You can come back to MIUI anytime you want.
I had flashed ROMs for various versions including Treble ROMs. In regards to selection of treble roms, you find whichever customisation features and options you like and select them.
I find MIUI to be stable enough for daily use. In case you are a flashaholic like me then you can try all the custom ROMs and check which is stable enough for your use.
I faced a major difficulty of signal instability with custom ROMs. Fyi I am in India and the network is JIO. I found too many blank spots and lesser signal quality. Apart from that the ROMs are fluid and fast enough.

Hi!
Before attempting anything I wanted to ask this here:
I have a non-rooted, completely stock Mi Pad 4 bought from Gearbest. It is the international version (Model name: M1806D9W) that came with Google Apps, already with english language, etc. It currently runs MIUI Global 9.6 | Stable 9.6.7.0.0(ODJCNFD) (Android 8.1.0 OPM1.171019.019)
I read online that MIUI 10 should be available for global versions which I think mine is? But yet system updates tell me there are no updates available.
So here's my question: What is the simplest most straightforward way to upgrade to MIUI 10?
I see I can download ROMs from threads here and other places online but I want to make 100% sure of which one should I get.
Bonus question: Any way of backuping everything so I don't have to re-install, reconfigure, re-place my apps icons, etc?
Thanks so much!
pretty sure the international version that your reseller claim is false.. there are no international version now.. they probably loaded an "international modified" rom .. highly recommend you to flash xiaomi EU rom already comes with prebuilt playstore if you ur bootloader is already unlocked. if not, flash official chinese miui 10 rom and they are many guides to get playstore on chinese rom as well.

Ok I see! So once I upgrade to MIUI 10 I will have OTA updates then?
This is the one I need right? https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-pad-4/how-to/rom-miui-10-xiaomi-eu-links-t3864882
Also is there any way of restoring my apps, settings, etc like it is on MIUI 9 right now? OR will I really need to start all over again?
EDIT: I don't believe my Mi Pad 4 is rooted. This seems like good instructions on how to root it and flash a new rom? https://en.miui.com/thread-3196420-1-1.html
Thanks so much!
i just flashed my mi pad 4 . It had the same rom, just modified rom to include the playstore,
The bootloader is already unlocked.
just boot to fast boot. volume key + power
flash twrp - i used twrp installer bat from here en.miui.com/thread-3196420-1-1.html
once boots twrp, then flash miui 10 - androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=281632
job done.

yeah the link is correct, with xiaomi Eu rom you can still get official updates, maybe just slight delay from official chinese stream. but that's the best support we have so far for international miui roms now. the check update seems to be quite buggy on xiaomi eu rom, sometime it downloads but fails on completion.. just try again.. 2nd try is the charm as always haha. if not you can download the rom and dirty flash no problem, i was on beta previously so maybe thats why.
highly recommend you to start from fresh.. migrating over apps may result in bug occurrence.
