I am someone who will install a custom rom for the first time and Resurrection Remix looks awesome. I love customization. So Unlocking boot loader -> Installing TWRP in fastboot mode -> Taking Backup -> Wiping and Installing RR. Is this the right path? Do I need Magisk to run banking apps or other apps that require online payment transactions? If Yes, does Magisk and RR works together?
Sorry for asking some basic questions! Do not want to ruin my phone Also if anyone knows the perfect guide to follow (unlock bootloader, installing TWRP, Installing RR) please send the links.
Thanks!

I just noticed that my kenzo bypasses safetynet on lineage os 15.1 20180323 build by lokmansiu. I can install Netflix from playstore, run super Mario run and pokemon go without any problems, also tested on safetynet test app. But I cant understand how is this possible provided I didnt even install magisk.
though I have not rooted the rom,
my bootloader is locked(used edl mode to flash twrp and then the rom)
can anyone plz tell if this is even normal??

No root = no problem.
You only fail SafetyNet if you use SuperSU to root your phone or forget to use Magisk Hide when rooting using Magisk.
SafetyNet also fails if you use Xposed Framework

But i always use custom ROMs without root and still the safetynet test still always failed
The only difference between this and previous scenario is that my bootloader is locked and the selinux in this ROM is hopefully enforcing...are they the reason?
how did you install twrp in edl mode with bootloader locked?

Follow the instruction from this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xExKvog5RP4
Tip: You can install twrp version of your choice. Just download twrp of your choice and rename it to recovery.img and place it in TWRP_ZCX/images folder (delete existing recovery.img file inside the image folder).
This method doesnot unlock the bootloader.

I don't know why but it didn't work for me. Still uncertified.
I recommend you flash Magisk to enable root access. Then use it with its "hide detection" feature (it is the default setting). It will mask your root access and unlocked bootloader from SafetyNet detection. Have a try.

Because selinux is finally set as enforcing. Probably next updates of other roms will be enforcing too

Because new build comes with selinux = enforcing
That means you are good to go
If that is permissive then you'll get error in bypassing safety net without magisk.
May I ask if use this method and later on want to revert back to a completely stock Miui ROM how do I do that on my kenzo device. Do I just use the mi flash tool and flash the original stock ROM back?
Unlocked my Bootloader recently.
Flashed almost all the best ROMs available. But can't get root access in any of them except Resurrection Remix. The root access on RR works coz it is prerooted and needs a small addonSU to activate it fully. Coutresy of LineageOS/CyanogenMod.
Magisk would give out "Cannot mount /vendor" "Error:1". I tested it on all the latest builds of all the ROMs(AOSP, AOiSP, dotOS, Cardinal etc..)
Tried flashing Magisk versions out there including the treble version of the beta. Also tried the flashing 'boot.img' trick. Still the same thing shows up.
My device : Redmi Note 4 SD
Recovery : Redwolf/TWRP(tried with both of them)
Has anyone been experiencing the same issue??? Has anyone figured out a solution??
Also, RR also seems to give out the same error when flashing Magisk. When I installed Titanium Backup, it said I have 16 cm-SU installed. Can't find a way to uninstall or remove it either.

I think all the ROMs you listed are Treble ROMs. They require a special Treble version of Magisk which is usually linked in the ROM threads

I tried the treble versions of magisk too. Even tried the beta. No luck.
Figured it out

So it was a problem with the treble implementation of the ROM. I was installing treble ROMs using the stock TWRP/Redwolf recovery. These recoveries install the ROM but don't work or make the /vendor partition. This has led many people to believe that there is something wrong with their phone. Anyway, flashing a custom treble recovery did the job. Although not each one of them is perfect, TWRP_3.2.1-7_mido-treble by @NFound is the best one.
Solved every problem faced by me till now. Custom Magisk for Redmi Note 4 is available and works like a charm.
Magisk-v16.3-mido-treble
It seems no one faced this issue before, anyway this would help the new comers like me.
Thanks.
Couldn't get
I am using RR ROM Oreo since 2 weeks and finding ways to root it
But can't find any way to do it
Addonsu is not working
Treble magisk is not working
I need to change my recovery
But the ROM ended up encrypting my internal storage
So should I clean data to format and remove encryption
Or I can directly install a new recovery ?
Format then wipe everything. With a help of a pc or a laptop download a treble supported recovery or the Firefox recovery(search it).Then try again.
I would certainly like to root my Poco F1. However, after reading loads of topics, I'm still not sure of which way to choose, because I have a bit of a problem with the jargon.
I want the face unlock to be working
I want to get rid of MIUI and have clean Android (for example Smart Lock doesn't work with MIUI)
I want to use gestures to navigate through the phone
Hence, I am probably looking for a custom ROM?
If I understand correctly, I need to:
Unlock the bootloader, then flash TWRP, then flash the custom ROM, then flash Magisk... and everything is done (?)
If I want to revert to stock ROM, I will just wipe everything, am I right?
Would these custom ROMs do?

Thank you all!
You need to flash the appropriate vendor as well. You can find the list of vendor firmwares for download here:
downloads. akhilnarang .me/MIUI/beryllium/
Most custom roms require a specific requirement for vendor. I'd recommend flashing the latest vendor, it shouldn't cause issues.
Magisk flashing isn't a necessary step, unless you prefer root access. Make sure to back up your data because your phone will get encrypted on first boot and all your data will be lost, not to mention the data loss during bootloader unlock. You can use force encryption disabler to disable encryption. But note that you will have to flash the zip every time you flash a new ROM/vendor or else it will get encrypted again.
Also. Pixel experience is a good ROM for stock android experience, but I would recommend lineage OS unofficial over it because of the customisation it provides. I haven't used Nitrogen OS in a long time, so I cannot judge on it.
PS: don't forget gapps. Custom ROMs don't have gapps included.
Let's correct a few things in kishore1998's post. First since the OP needs to unlock his bootloader, when he does that he'll lose all data. OP, if your data is important, backup to an external source before you start. After unlocking you'll need a recovery as stated before. Next is flashing vendor/firmware. After that , flash the rom of your choice. In it's OP it should tell you whether you need gapps or not. PE doesn't require gapps. Reboot, make sure all is fine then go back into recovery and flash Magisk. I'm on vendor/firmware 9.5.6, PE-AOSP-20180507 & Magisk 19.1. NOTE: I don't use DFE nor do I need it. You only need DFE if you want an unencrypted fone. If you do flash DFE, everytime you flash vendor/firmware your _next_ step is to flash DFE. TWRP allows you to stack zips to flash so you'll choose vendor/firmware and DFE, then flash before doing rom and gapps if needed. See this link which has a useful FAQ.

hey bro . you should first unlock bootloader with miunlock .you need waiting 66 hours . after that download developer rom (pejmimx) rememeber that most be pejmimx, search in google and download the final version. install twrp with minimal adb if your poco didnt connect to your pc in fastboot mode you need to change your pc (just once time ) . flash data system cache davlik (you should have micro sd or conect flash memory with otg to your phone). install rom dev pejmimx. install your favorite custome rom . install magisk and done .(donot install oxygen os because that is ported from one plus 6t and have much bugs) my suggest is crdroid rom

There are a lot of guides here that describe the things you want.
Some checkpoints:
-Unlock your bootloader and install twrp (all personal data will be deleted)
-make a backup of your phone (when you backup check all partitions and images). This is your original system in case you want to go back. There's no particular reason to get more.
-install a custom ROM (crdroid that was suggested above is great imho) FOLLOW THE ROM'S INSTALLING INSTRUCTIONS TO THE COMMA.
-install nano-gapps and above if you want face unlock (pico and micro won't have it)
-flash magisk if you want root (don't forget to install magisk apk after flashing it)
-last but not least regardless of what's mentioned anywhere use official twrp and DON'T flash encryption disabler. It's just going to make your life harder without any benefits whatsoever.
Thank you, very helpful and assuring!
One more thing though - I often use dual boot of some apps. This is a Xiaomi-only feature; Does that mean with a different ROM (but for a Xiaomi device) I will lose this possibility?
I mainly just want to get rid of the MIUI ballast that interferes with the clean Android, so if there is a possibility to keep the ROM and delete MIUI, it would be maybe even better (?)
Since I'm having a lot of issues with Magisk in realme xt (not that Magisk is bad, I'm not figuring out how to install it correctly), is there another way of acquiring root privileges in Resurrection remix (or any other custom ROM)?
I really need it.
Great! I've figured it out. I'm posting it here for anyone else that might land here.
Although Magisk installation instructions at Github recommend the patched boot.img method, it doesn't seem to work with the realme xt. So, you must use the "legacy method", which is also stated in every ROM installation instructions here: just install magisk.zip from TWRP., after your first boot to system (anyway, that's how I did it). There is no need to patch anything.
Hello to everyone reading this...
This was my first time doing anything with twrp and generally flashing custom roms.
So i unlocked bootloader on my Poco F1 in like no time (didnt even had to wait 3 days) and flashed via adb twrp... then i installed twrp in twrp and my os (miui) unfortunatly vanished. Now im kinda stuck here. when trying to install a OS, it says it worked but then:
- reboot into twrp
- No os installed
My Custom Rom i tried to install is the Pixel Experience Plus one and even the stock miui 12.0.3 rom recovery didnt work.
Do i need to install magisk or disable force encryption or disable dm verity?
i used the newest twrp :twrp-3.5.2_10-0-beryllium.img
Any help is appreciated!
Thank you
