You can't root the newest rom for snapdragon variant. It's only possible if you have an unlocked bootloader.
I've also been reading something about edl flashing, where you could flash older dev rom which comes with root, but I didn't test that method myself.

Help! Officially Unlocked Bootloader. Whats next?

I have a few questions.
1. Do I need to root the phone separately using super su? Or just flashing twrp will do the job?
2. Do I need different super su zip files for different roms ? Or any super su file will work?
3. Whats the best stable rom right now? [ Miui or any custom ]
Have you unlocked officially or unofficially? How many days it took you to unlock officially after receiving the sms from Xiaomi? I got my request approved since 13th July, yet unable to unlock bootloader as it stucks on 50% and gives account different error all the time. Have you changed your ROM to get it unlocked? Thanks in advance for your help.

To install TWRP you have to modify your boot.img otherwise system will replace twrp with stock recovery follow this link http://en.miui.com/thread-249666-1-1.html (ON SOME ROMS DEVICE DOSENT BOOT THIS HAPPENED WITH ME DO AT YOUR OWN RISK MAKE SURE YOU HAVE BACKUP OF YOU STOCK BOOT.IMG YOU CANNOT USE ANY BOOT.IMG YOU HAVE TO USE SAME IMAGE THAT YOUR ROM HAVE YOU CAN EXTRACT BOOT.IMG FROM FASTBOOT ROM )after installing TWRP you can root your device via flashing SUPERSU ZIP there are many roms with their pros and cons i am using MOKEE its stable .

It is better to unlock via official method it will take time but will be good. it usually take a week or more to unlock after reciving permission msg. the errors are irrelevant to problem. try after few days good luck

After officially unlocked the bootloader, you can used this to flash twrp: http://en.miui.com/thread-296053-1-1.html, used twrp to flash superSU2.65.zip for rooting. I personally preferred alka twrp for flashing official rom with ease. Please referred to this thread for different twrp: http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/guide-redmi-note-3-available-twrps-t3406708

When you go to unlock request site if it loaded with unlock tool download page you are given permission to unlock and download it and unlock officially.

All the while on xmiui 8, When I flashed the rom, always flashed superSU.zip and xposed x86 by solarwarex in one single flashing without failed. But because of Pokemon go game and now both my redmi 2 enhanced(cn dev rom) and redmi note 3 pro (global dev rom)were not rooted. But my redmi note 2 prime was rooted and xposed installed on latest global dev rom.

i also did not got a message from them but when i used mi unlock tool it unlocked my phone.so you should try mi unlock tool and see if the unlock code was already sent to you but could not receive due to some reasons like me.
I got some problems to unlock my Redmi 3 Pro too, I was on Global Stable and was unable to unlock my phone.
I downloaded the developer ROM from MiUI site, updated manually via Updater app, and i successfully unlock my phone.

If you flash this ROM using edl mode and miflash tool ManhIT_ido_xhdpi_SpaceX 6.7.7 from https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24572369242688234
It it for locked bootloaders but is rooted and has twrp recovery installed. You can then flash other ROMs that usually require an unlocked bootloader. I've changed from the spaceX ROM to the latest weekly thunder ROM and over the weekend to the CM13 ROM by Anik_Khan.

Hi, maybe you can give me some guidance, here.
I'm willing to try the CM 13 in a redmi 3 pro. Have you download it the China Developer Rom?
Try flashing the latest developer ROM with miflash, and then unlock your bootloader

This guide explains how to flash stock MIUI roms. You have a few options for root. You could flash a global or China beta/dev ROM which have an in built root which can be enabled. You could unlock your bootloader and install TWRP then install superSU. Or you could just try an app like KingRoot if you trust it enough.

I've done it with the China dev/beta rom and that is what's recommended. It may be possible on the new global dev but I'm not sure and so can only recommend the China dev/beta. Once unlocked you'll stay unlocked so you can flash whatever you want straight away after. Just make sure to backup/sync any data first as everything will get wiped when using the SP flash tool.

It was a simple and normal question. I don't bully you or anyone else here. It's better if i ask you before you brick your phone or something. But anyway, it's your phone and your choice.
Global dev rom works, I unlocked mine early this week. You will need to fill in the form for permission from Xiaomi hxxp://en.miui.com/unlock and wait for an activation code for your Mi account before you start. You'll also need that account on your phone. It absolutely will not work on Global Stable, trust me, I tried!
The Global Dev rom doesn't have root enabled, so you'll also have to install TWRP (from cofface) there is a good guide in this forum somewhere, then flash SuperSu from there. (the official version works just fine)

Thanks for confirming, I unlocked using the china dev rom and enabled the built-in root. I could then use flashfire to install cofface's TWRP recovery and did a wipe in TWRP to start afresh without root.

Bootloader can even be unlocked on Global stable now. Just did it successfully on 8.1.2.0. Next TWRP can be flashed via fastboot and last SuperSU in TWRP. All done.

No reason why it should not work on 8.1.3.0. Just look for the bootloader check in developer settings. If it's there and you can link your account you should be good to go. Always worth a try...
Latest Supersu is always available on Chainfire's website download.chainfire.eu. Flash via TWRP. It's not specific to A ROM or device.

Unroot?

Hello,
I have a problem with the Redmi Note 4, I am trying to use an app that is not working if the phone is rooted and ofc it's not working because apparently the phone IS rooted and I can't find anywhere how to unroot it.
The ROM is global and it's version 8.0.6 or something. Anyway, can someone please advise how to unroot it please?
Cheers,

Can you post a screenshot of your about phone screen in settings? Did you install any roms since getting it? As the global stable/dev roms dont have root by default, i dont even think it can be enabled global dev like the china dev rom. Its possible you have a vendor/reseller rom and so recommended to flash an official rom asap as the current one may contain malware/spyware/backdoors/etc.

so the phone arrived yesterday bought from aliexpress, there should be no root indeed for a global rom but even if i install an app that requires root it says that root is not present. being bought from aliexpress i assume the vendor opened the box and installed a custom rom. I will try to flash an official one today.
try to use Xposed and rootcloack or suhide
suhide won't work with Xposed tho, so your Gona have to remove Xposed if the first option doesn't work
I'm guessing it's a banking app had the same problem

Root redmi note 4 without pc

Hi friends ,
I need some help to root my Redmi Note 4.
I have no pc , so the needed rooting method is without pc.
I tried with Kingroot , but they didnt start to support on this device yet.
My Redmi Note 4 is 3GB/32GB version running on android 7.0 and MIUI Global 8.5 Stable. I dont want to flash a custom rom or recovery to this. I need only root permission for run some apps.
If anybody knows working rooting methods like kingroot , please help me.
As far I know, there is no way you can root without pc, there is no bug to exploit for simply root click apps. Especially with locked bootloader device.

AFAIK China Dev ROM was prerooted.

Yeah, just request permission for unlock bootloader from your device. Bound your mi account, wait for 7-10 days.
After that just borrow one of your friends pc. Download and install mi unlock.
Unlock your bootloader, install twrp, flash lazy flasher, flash magisk or supersu.
And, you are golden.

Instead of that, just unlock bootloader, flash a custom recovery and root your phone. If you don't like it, then you can easily switch to stock miui anytime.
