Hello ppl,
I have unlocked the bootloader of my RN3 snapdragon version officially and i flashed the offical twrp on my phone.
Then i did a complete backup of the rom and then installed CM 14.1 (Santosh's build)
When i installed the rom,it relocked the bootloader and the fastboot mode now shows cyanogen logo instead of the mi logo.
The TWRP is working fine and i tried out both CM13 as well as 14.1.
i was on the miui 8(5.1) build and i tried to restore the EFS file to enable VOLTE on CM14.1 but no VOLTE is working as it was V5.1
I now have to revert back to MIUI8(6.0).How do i proceed?.
*I will flash the global MIUI8 developer rom using the TWRP?
*Restore the backup that i had done earlier with with official TWRP?
*Boot into eld mode(Cyanogen fastboot mode) and then use MiFlash and flash global developer MIUI version.
Please Help me with this.Need to get the VOLTE working fast and get back to MIUI.
First of all let me tell you that volte is broken and fluctuating in miui8 MM builds. Even though there are fixes but then you have to compromise fp scanner. So in my opinion flash xiaomi.eu rom 6.8.11 based on 5.1.1. But as per experience I have seen volte working in santhosh build. Just dont flash any firmware. And to revert back to miui8 LP just wipe partitions and remeber dat official MM roms are encrypted. Dont go there. Happy flash.

Didnt you unlock bootloader? If not then unlock it using mi flash tool, and check out roms from xiaomi.eu site not from miui.com, official site produce ****ty roms. They mess up data partition with encryption. Check out 6.8.11 based on 5.1 where VoLte works fine.

I have locked bootloader.Is it fine if i just flash the zip file using twrp
MiUnlock is not detecting the phone to unlock the bootloader.
Sorry for too many questions.Litte bit new to RN3 .It was easy to flash and do stuff with my old OnePlus One.
::And ill download the stable or weekly
I think you might lose IMEI/EFS if you downgrade from CM 14.1 to lolipop MIUI? Someone more knowledgeable can confirm.

download weekly, miunlock is not detecting? Hmm then may be it is due to windows drivers. If you are using x64 bit OS then you should tweak driver signature enforcement in windows. which twrp u are using? Use a twrp where you can backup efs, modem and other important partitions. alka, zcx are best twrps.

if you use edl then it doesnt matter whether its unlocked or locked. But edl mode needs to wipe everything all data in int storage.
Whats the update? Did it went well? I mean through edl mode using MiFlash.
Hey,
I also have a question. If I officially unlock my bootloader and some how it gets locked again then can I unlock it again officially?
I flash MIUI 8 mm from cm 14.1 , via two booted but mi account verification error . Not go beyond that . What to do ?

Hi guys, can anyone tell me how to do it? I have a kate device here, and I'm dying to have cyanogenmod installed on it. Wish there's a non-too-complicated way to get it done.
Update:
Official CyanogenMod 13 for Kenzo works well on Kate too! Everything seems good right now.
Hey can you please Dump your device with twrp and share it with us so we can try to unlock Band 20
Edit: i think banmeifyouwant did it the others way around. Guess you have to repartition your internal memory to have the Layout of kenzo. Also someone in miui Forum posted he has flashed kenzo fastboot to his Kate device but Radio is not working anymore.

Can you please advise where you got TWRP from? Without TWRP, there's no CM or even root for XMIUI and MIUI Tweaks.

Hi guys! I helped him to get this working. All things started with He didn't know that him device is Kate in first time and flashed Kenzo 7.1.8 Lollipop with modified emmc... in MiFlash to get unofficial bootloader unlock with fastboot oem unlock-go command. He got 5.1.1 Kenzo ROM working but without SIM Card detected due to flashed Kenzo modem. After it, he just flashed latest ALKA TWRP with all partitions support in fastboot and flashed latest CM nightly + GAPPS + CM13-Radios zip. It boots fine but with NO SIM Card detected too and unknown Baseband version. Don't worry. To solve it, just boot in fastboot and flash Kate modem from Kate MIUI Fastboot ROM and voila, fully working CM in Kate device! You guys with flashed TWRP can try to flash CM ROM without modify Partition sizes because CM use less space then MIUI and Kate partition sizes are same from Kenzo. Only system is bigger than Kenzo system but it works, prof of it is flashing Kenzo ROM in Kate with MiFlash don't give error like flashing Kate ROM in Kenzo.

Thanks for the info. What does flashing CM13-Radios.zip do? If we don't flash that, would it leave Kate's default modem active? Would we need to flash the Kate modem each time we install a new nightly? Having to connect the phone to the computer every time would be a pain.

You can try it. Download CM last nightly and copy to internal storage, unlock your bootloader officially, flash ALKA TWRP recovery, go to backup and select ENTIRE PARTITIONS and do a full backup of your phone then wipe SYSTEM + DATA + CACHE + DALVIK CACHE, flash CM13 + GAPPS and reboot. This will keep your modem and all firmware partitions save. If it don't work and you get bootloop, boot in ALKA TWRP again, click in RESTORE, UNCHECK ONLY FIRMWARE PARTITION and start the restore process. This will boot MIUI again. Then start the process again but now this time, flash CM13-Radios.zip after GAPPS flash and try to boot it. When it boot, restart in bootloader and flash Kate modem and you will get fully working ROM. Or you can replace non-hlos.bin with Kate on in CM13-Radios.zip before flash it.
And no, you don't need to flash Kate modem at each new nightly because CM ROM don't comes with Modem files in it. After you get fully working CM nightly, you will get all OTA's without need a PC connect.

Unfortunately, to unlock bootloader unofficialy in Kate, you need to flash 5.1.1 MIUI ROM for Kenzo with modified bootloader. I think the better is stay with your stock ROM and wait more for unlock code.

Ok. Will do. A factory reset fixed the network issue so I can't live with that. Cheers
1. All Recoveries built for Kenzo will work without any issue on Kate as well, You can just stay with official TWRP or CM Recovery as you're pleased.
2. You can always flash the official rom back with MiFlash in EDL mode, if you happen to brick your phone.
Official ROM for Kate
Stable: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V7.3.9.0.M...DE_20160523.0000.23_6.0_global_f7170696d8.tgz
Developer: http://bigota.d.miui.com/6.8.25/kate_global_images_6.8.25_20160805.0000.29_6.0_global_195d892285.tgz
3. To install Official Cyanogenmod 13 for Kenzo on Kate (coming from MIUI), you would have to modify the build.prop and then flash the supported firmwares .zip file. One thing worth mentioning here is that, you must remove or replace NON-HLOS.bin found inside the .zip file, otherwise your phone wouldn't be able to detect the sim card. Still, you can flash only NON-HLOS.bin for Kate (from official rom) on fastboot later if you prefer to skip all the trouble modifying the firmwares .zip file. In my case, the only required files from the firmwares .zip for CM13 to run properly are just emmc_appsboot.mbn and file_contexts.
HI! I am using the redmi note 3 snapdragon variant,and i have unlocked my bootloader unofficially and curretly using cm13 rom.
I want to swith back to stock miui rom,i.e miui 8 ,bt i read that directly flashing the rom will relock my bootloader and brick my phone.I have lazy patcher and twrp installed in my phone.How to switch back to stock rom without relocking my bootloader since root access is very imp. for me.
Thank you.
Official unlock is better than unofficial unlock.. Try to flash latest global stable via MiFlash, and unlock it.. If 50% error appear, try to flash global beta and then unlock again..

you may want to use the "safe twrp" version. its a variant of coface which ensures you dont flash the emmc file. however since you have CM13 which has its own firmware files.. i think you should go the EDL method and use the patched emmc file. refer this http://en.miui.com/thread-253680-1-1.html

There is a MM specific emmc file (patched)..look for that on miui forums and follow the steps . I can send you the link later. It will still be unlocked since you are using a patched file. But u will lose your recovery since you are flashing everything stock. So you got to flash safe twrp again after flashing the rom through fastboot. It's just like flashing the LL rom but with a different emmc file.
Alternatively you could use safe twrp as well but I am not 100℅ confident since MM has different firmware/ partitions so I dont know if it will work or not. There are too many users reporting various issues such as bootloop, no sim detection etc etc.
If any experienced user can write a detailed guide for upgrading from miui LL to MM on unofficial unlock using safe twrp, that will be great. Until then use EDL (but backup ALL partitions using Alka twrp before you start)

Hi, so I take the it steps are similar to edl method you posted earlier except that I have to replace the emmc patched files with mm version instead and start flashing the MM miui v8 rom.

I have observed that my RN3 kenzo is not able to boot on any Nougat ROM built after 2nd april.
I have tried the following ROMS :
1. XenonHD (2nd and 7th april builds - Working fine)
2. Xenon HD 5th May - STUCK ON BOOT
3. Nitrogen OS - STUCK ON BOOT (I dont remember the build date but I downloaded it in april )
4. Resurrection Remix 3rd May - STUCK ON BOOT
5. Cosmic OS - 6th May - STUCK ON BOOT
All the installations were clean flashes. Installed CM14.1_Firmware_kenzo_12.04.2017, still no luck.
What is the reason behind this ? How Can I solve it ?

my bootloader is unlocked.
I installed an older build of XenonHD and it is working fine. All the newer builds are getting stuck.
Edit : Unofficially unlocked.
Flash latest firmware from Official LOS thread and flash your rom. Here is the direct link https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634767927
And Read this.
Some nougat roms won`t boot if you don`t format data after you`ve flashed the rom. So try this: if you are coming from miui, you don`t need to flash any firmware, then wipe system+data+dalvik cache+cache, install rom+gapps and last thing, Format Data (you`ll find it under advanced wipe) and reboot to system. Save your files to sdcard or computer before do that, because this will erase all internal storage, but twrp will remain.

This.
Some of the Newer ROMs need MM bootloader. If you've unofficially unlocked then that means you're on LP bootloader.
Try Flashing the latest MIUI dev ROM and unlocking officially.
Yeah that's exactly what @bloodytolits said flash the latest developer rom i think the Chinese roms get unlocked easily so you can go with it until you unlocked officially then you don't need to flash any firmware again your already on the latest then flash the rom and your ready to go good look

Most of the latest ROMs only works on firmwares 7.5.4 - 7.6.7. I don't know if they already changed that. So you can install(and unlock) MIUI dev 7.5.4 - 7.6.7 or the latest and just flash the 7.5.4 - 7.6.7 firmware afterwards before trying to flash any custom rom.
Most people says it should be dev ROM, as I haven't officially unlocked mine I don't know. I'm using Kate and following this guide, you won't really need to officially unlock. I can't guarantee if this would work on kenzo though.

Most of the latest ROMs only works on firmwares 7.5.4 - 7.6.7. I don't know if they already changed that. So you can install(and unlock) MIUI dev 7.5.4 - 7.6.7 or the latest and just flash the 7.5.4 - 7.6.7 firmware afterwards before trying to flash any custom rom.

Okay. Now I'm planning to flash MIUI fastboot from RR 5.8.3. and lock my bootloader. Will it cause any bootloop problem?

Did u apply for permission from xiaomi to unlock this phone and unlocked it using Miunlock tool and pressed unlock button to unlock?
Or
Did u used fastboot oem unlock-go command to unlock ?
If u don't know which one? That means this phone is stolen one.:laugh:

That's the link to the los thread. Firmware is in op #2, but it is not for you since you unlocked unofficially, it will relock your bootloader.

I have twrp3.0.2 , rr-25th April build .
I downloaded miui 8.5.3 recovery file. Can I just flash it like I did with Resurrection Remix ? Or I have to it the fastboot way only??
are you officially unlocked?
if yes flash the zip via twrp followed by flashing lazyflasher..
if your are unofficially unlocked delete aboot file from the firmware folder and then flash it along with lazy flasher

Outdated bootloader, hmm. Yes, I think it's the problem as someon else also suggested to first upgrade to latest global stable ROM and then unlock. But how to do that? I googled it, but can't find any method. There's negative comments on every one of the threads. Help me out in this ?

I apologise I didn't tell my problem correctly. I know how to flash stock ROM from mi flash, but what I don't know is how to unlock bootloader from latest ROM. ?
Is there any way apart from official method?

Already tried that. Got permission in 3 hours. But miunlock gets error at 99 %. " Account not bound to this device, go to dev options -> mi status -> add account". Did that too, but gives 8612 and something in Chinese error.

Thanks. What I want to do is either update to latest RR ROM, or to revert back to miui because 25-04 Resurrection build is a lil bit buggy. And the problem while updating to latest build is it gets stuck on "get Resurrected" animation. Same goes for NitrogenOS. Currently, I'm on 25-04 RR build, and it's working okay-ish with some bugs. Now, on asking this stuck animation here on another thread, someone said to upgrade bootloader by unlocking in miui 8. But there's no unofficial way...
On which ROM did you unlock officially? Global stable or global dev or China ROM. Also provide the miui version. I will try to flash that ROM and re-unlock

One more thing, I downloaded miui 8.5.3 global stable recovery zip. It is not having any "aboot" file. Boot.img is present. If they are same, I'll have to delete boot.img, right?
