Need help for switching from Global to Beta Global - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

Hi there,
I have RN3P with MIUI 8.5.2.0 & I wanted to install Global Beta 7.7.20.
Then I downloaded the 7.7.20 zip file (I'm pretty sure, it's legit.) & then choose update package in updater app. It got decrypted successfully then dialogue opened saying you'll lose data. I was out of town, so I cancelled it, because I had no means of backing up data.
Then on the same day at the evening, I choose update package, but now it's saying the file cannot be verified (there's no decryption process) & sometimes it says official ROM required. Wtf?
I have no PC, at the moment, my laptop isn't with me at home. What to do? I want to use updater app. I have NO vendor ROM. Official 8.5.2.0 version.

Bump, help needed.

Maybe clear updater app data and reboot then try again?who knows..... hopefully but just guessing.

[Q]TMo 4.4 Update error. Download corrupted.

I was pushed the KK update for TMo HTC one. The update was dowloaded, after that it verifies the contents of the firmware. It is failing saying "Download is corropted' and asks to dowload again. I downloaded it 3 times , everytime i am getting the same error. I soft reseted the phone and checked and downloaded again. No luck.
Later i killed the 'updater' app and cleared its app cache (some 20kb of data was there) via the setting-> apps-> All- > Updater. Now the in setting when i check for the update it dosen't show me the 4.4 update available
Is there any way by which i can update it via the PC ? I could not find any tool from HTC for it, sync manager dosen't do firmware update.
P.S : Phone is on 4.3 , never rooted, no custom roms. Just network unlocked via network code from T-MObile.

You have a couple options I can think of. Back up all your data using adb. Copy your internal storage and paste it onto your computer, thereby making a back up of all your internal data. Use the tmobile RUU to take your phone back to full stock using this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672425 . Download and update your phone. Using adb again, restore your apps and settings. Repaste from your comp, all your internal storage again.
Second option is to download from the General forum the OTA file. Paste it into the update folder on your phone. Then reboot your phone and it should see the update and allow you to update hopefully. However, you would need someone to tell you which folder to put it into. I actually copied it from my phone but I forgot which folder it came from.
Any idea you could remember it ?

I did a system restart after backup. Initally when i checked in the Setting-Software Update it was showing no updates. Later after couple of hours i tried over 3G , it said update available. I guess i was just lucky..
Anyways downloaded over Wifi . Went smooth.

Re-rooting?

I have a Note 2 (obviously), and I have rooted my phone the first day I got it and have never updated the phone since I purchased it. So, I am still on 4.1.2. My phone has been super laggy and I want to take the oppurtunity the when I reset my phone that I can take advatages of the new features that mobile phones have by upgrading all the way to 5.1.x.
So, I downloaded CM 12.1 by wilson3q with 5.1 system. I first tried the 5.0 version since the 5.1 looked too new, and did not have time to deal with the bugs. When I flashed the 5.0 version, I got errors of not being able to flash gapps for 5.0 and that I lost my root. I tried downloading the new TWRP to see if I can get a newer version that would work better, but no luck. I got an error saying that I lost my root privileges and did I want TWRP to fix it. I slid yes to fix, but no luck.
The same problem occurred when I tried with 5.1.
So, I ended up restoring my nandroid backup and I am back on 4.1.2 again with root working again.
I am thinking that I am probably supposed to 'step up' the updates, but not sure. Does anyone have a solution or a link to the solution that they can help with?
PS: I did not like the camera that came with the new mod. I do like the stock one. Are there flashes of cameras that I can use as well when I do end up upgrading?
Thank you in advance!!!

Try Phiz recovery, I've never had trouble with "[I605][CWM Advanced Edition] PhilZ Touch". If I recall we had to start using that one when kit-kat was released (i reserve the right to recall poorly)
I have a link to download mirror here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60899023&postcount=146
from your new recovery, you should be able to install CM12.1 and 5.1 gaaps recommended in the Wilson3Q i605 thread. from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-2-verizon/development/rom-unofficial-build-i605-t3069506
FWIW, I am on the 20150803 build and still using the GApps Minimal Edition 2015-04-04 for Android 5.1 (91 MB) from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/gapps-google-apps-minimal-edition-t2943330
with no issues to report.
You may also need to track down updated radios (to flash from CWM). I think you can find a link to the updated ND7 Modem/Baseband here:

PS you may want to flash superSU from recovery... get the zip from chainfire's xda thread here:

(I've been dirty flashing for so long I dont' remember if the rom came with SuperSU or superuser... as such I can't recall if I had to flash this zip or not, but I probably did if I had issues with root)
Note you may also need to enable root from the settings menu after enabling developer mode.
there should be a "root access" option (or somehting like that there)
PPS are you also remembering to wipe data & clear cache/dalvik?
I have found zoot's mega wipe useful...

I assume that you are giving steps in order, BUT I feel that I should flash the radio to 4.4.2 first, in which the link was broken. I have spent a couple hours trying to find another link, but I am afraid that I may be using an incorrect one. Do you have a good link for that, please?
Also, I have ready the newest Samsung 3.10 Odin downloaded and installed, as well as the USB driver installed and downloaded the ADB fastboot. If I remember correctly, I am supposed to move this onto C: and run it to access the device (Note 2). It has been since Android first came out since I have used the ADB though. So, I apologize for the ignorance. So, do I just make sure the adb is in the same directory and run Odin or did I not need ADB and just run Odin?
I also assume that I run the Philz touch after I have gotten to 4.4.2 rooted first. Am I correct by assuming that?

Yes, I have done a cache/dalvik wipe a few times (because I have tried reflashing to get it to work with no luck).
I have downloaded the .zip version of superSU as well, and gapps minimal 5.1 with wilson3q's 5.1 ROM. So, I am almost ready to go with the exception of the correct radio upgrade file.
Thank you so much for your help!!! Much appreciated!
PS Will my old WifiTether apk files still work with 5.1 or do I need to get a new one?
Thanks Again!

Just flash philz from twrp. Reboot recovery wipe/reset... then flash new ROM gaaps... Wipe/reset... Then reboot.
I can post the radio zip to my site later tonight. I believe you can flash that last, or later (from philz cwm, after getting on cm12.1)
Same as superSU. Check out ROM first. It comes with root that can be enabled in developer options. you can always reboot to recovery later and flash the zip.
PS. WiFi tether built into ROM "hotspot" (no VZW subscription required)
Pps try this for the nd7 radios

Sorry to bother you, but I still am getting errors with Failed root access for Titanium Backup Pro. I also cannot find Developer Options in the settings menu.
I have tried flashing the radio before and after wiping and installing the ROM then gapps then superSU. I get into superSU and it asks me for root access and I grant it, but Titanium Backup Pro still says that it has no root access.
Any ideas? Thank YOU!!

with SuperSU installed, you may need to just need to update binaries. open SuperSU and it should prompt you if necessary. the "normal" option should work (no need to flash from recovery)
for TiBu...
--within SuperSU settings you may need to disable (uncheck) "mount name separation".
--You may also have to enable unknown sources (under settings, security).
-- there might be something to enable for USB debugging as well (TIBU should prompt for it)
FWIW, you can restore user apps/data... but I would not attempt to restore any system data. Personally, I have found it best to get to know a fresh ROM for a while before trying to restore crap from an older ROM . there might be value in re-configuring apps manually and/or restoring them one at a time (after making sure the ROM is working properly) i.e. you won't need any of those aforementioned WiFi tether apps since it is built into the ROM now.
Instructions on enabling developer options in CM ROM, from here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_developer_options
1- In the Settings app, select About Phone (or About Tablet).
2- Scroll down, and tap the Build number entry seven times. On the seventh tap, you will be notified that "You are now a developer."
3- Return back to the main Settings menu. Developer options and Performance entries should now be visible.

(that is likely how to enable superuser that is "baked" into the rom, given you already installed SuperSU it may only complicate matters)
You may be rooted and just having TiBu issues. If all else fails you can check with an app. A long time ago, I've used "Simple Root Checker" by SimoneDev to check root/busybox. It is still in the play store.
Good Luck!

Thank you! It ended up being my version of Titanium Backup. I downloaded a new version and it is good. As far as restoring is concerned, I do not even want the apps themselves restored from there, because there may be a new version and would like a fresh install of those apps. I just want my data restored. For example, I have a surveillance software that I would just like to restore the entries (IP's usernames and passwords). I would like my email settings to be there, so that I do not have to re setup my 7 email addresses. My Text/SMS messages and my alarms. So, I am not trying to do a full restore.
On another note, I am trying to get my calendars back into my phone with no luck. I cannot install google calendar and get my google calendars to populate into my task widget, and the ROM is not letting me set up my POP email addresses. Also, I see no ringtones, so I have no ringers to ring my phone nor tones for my alarm clock. I flashed gapps for 5.1 and I see nothing extra from the ROM. I thought gapps was google apps. Am I trying to do stuff differently than you? There seems to be a few problems in that manner that I am trying to work with.
I am thinking of downgrading to 5.0. Maybe the 5.1 is too new?
Again, THANK YOU for your help!

I wouldn't downgrade, nobody is actively working on 5.0.2 anymore.... that thread is basically dead. Also, it is likely less "stable"/mature than what you have installed now (that is currently being maintained). i.e. you have the ROM that I would stick with.
like I said I wouldn't restore any thing into system (apps or data)... you can do whatever you please. (but it could be causing you more issues than just biting the bullet & configuring manually) i.e. restoring accounts might result in unanticipated issues, you came from a much older version of android.
all I had to do was install google calendar from play store and then the CM12 calendar stuff all worked (I might have had to restart and/or install the google calendar prior to setting up primary gmail). you might need to remove all your accounts and load them again (a factory reset might be faster though.)
also you might have to update google services and the play store before certain things "play nice".
I know you don't want to hear this but...
from here on out i'll likely point to all your issues being based on restoring system data. (based on my limited knowledge and personal experience). FWIW, I'd try to reconfigure/setup everything manually and you will likely have much better results.

I figured that, and feared that and the same time. So, what am I flashing onto the phone with gapps then? Also, one of the reasons I was wanting to go back was because there are a few apps that are not 'compatible' with this system. Meanwhile, I am going to wipe and reset again, and do what you suggested and just reconfigure.
Thanks again!

GAaps are the google apps... good read:
http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/Google_Apps
(hopefully I am not out of line for posting a link to that wiki)
many ROMS like CM don't' include gaaps due to licencing/legal issues. which is why the AOSP roms devs often have you flash the GAAPS package separately (also you can pick your package for your fact pattern... full gaaps/minimal gaaps/etc.).
Also the gaaps zip files you flash from recovery install the files into system. a lot of folks like the minimal editions of GAaps because it doesn't force all the apps into system. instead it just gets you up and running with the play store and a few essentials... that lets the user install all the other google apps as user apps, from the play store.
basically taking the "debloat" mentality as far as you can... keep stuff out of system and let the user decide what to install.

Xioami Redmi note - Pro

Dear all
I use Redmi note 3 bearing Andriod version: 5.1.1 LMY47V, MIUI: MIUI Global 8.0 stable 8.0.6.0(LHOMIDG), Baseband Ver: 8976_GEN_PACK-1.66111.1.71302.1; Kernel 3.10.73 Build Number: LMY47v
- Finger print stopped working, lock screen pattern works sometimes other wise no
- Performance issues
- when I type message in whatsapp, automatically goes to home screen ..
Sent several messages here, I was advised factory reset. I got a advice to download apkextractor, and back up of data.
Question is which is best, latest links ?
How to flash ROM and OS ?
Regards
LP
This you should've asked in noob friendly thread, instead of opening a new one.
And this really shouldnt of been asked anymore to begin with... Its getting spammed, because you guys open a new thread for things that has been already answered
So, because of your post, my reaction leads to spam and waste time
backup your data via mi cloud(contacts,messages,etc).you can't backup the data of your apps unless you have root access(and I don't think you do),use the es file explorer to backup apk of your apps.
about flashing roms, the safest method is using the updater app,latest miui roms links :
miui global Stable nightly recovery rom based on marshmallow:
http://bigota.d.miui.com/V8.1.1.0.MHOMIDI/miui_HMNote3ProGlobal_V8.1.1.0.MHOMIDI_8e5f6f8e03_6.0.zip
miui global developer recovery rom based on marshmallow:
http://bigota.d.miui.com/6.12.8/miui_HMNote3ProGlobal_6.12.8_23b66088e0_6.0.zip
instructions:
- after downloading the rom,rename the file name to Update.zip then copy to internal storage(in downloaded_rom folder).
- open updater app, select choose update package, go to downloaded_rom folder and select Update.zip. It will verify your rom and install it.
- reset factory

To get rid of Hands Free Activation you just need to delete the \system\priv-app\HtcOMADM_SPCS folder in twrp
1. Boot into TWRP

Where are you getting this from? "C:\Users\Babar>C:\Users\Babar\Downloads\twrp.img"
Just google installing TWRP on M9 and you should get loads of guides. If the image you're getting is genuinely corrupt you're going to have to check your sources as the ones downloaded from the main twrp pages are usually fine.

This method didn't work for me, I tried the old command mode guide and same twrp worked fine for me.

Did you get bloatware removed?

Use caution. You can go thru batch settings, select remove all apps and then while in there, click deselect all. Then go thru and pick what you want to remove (EXTREME CAUTION you can remove an app or so that will require you to flash the rom again)
Other So Called "ROOT app remover" apps backup the app before you delete it and then decides for you if it should be reinstalled for you, and you cant delete them.

I recommended going into your settings. Apps. And just select the apps that are sprint related & force stop them, and then disable each app individually. After they are disabled clear the data & cache of each one. Then they'll no longer be displayed or asked to be updated. This is without having to install TwRp.

xiaomi redmi note 4 not allowed to use Lloyds Banking app

Ok, so iv recently purchased a xiaomi redmi note 4 and im pretty happy with it so far, however it wont allow me to use my Lloyds Bank internet banking app, keeps telling me that im rooted, which i can only assume i am, presumably when i bought the phone from geekbest, they had to root the device before they could sideload the Google play etc, my question is, is there a decent way of either hiding the fact im rooted from this app? Iv tried a couple of apps from the play store but they dont appear to work, still get the same message from the banking app. Failing that, how easy would it be to 'unroot' the device and would this have any repercussions on the current functionality of my new phone?
Cheers

See my post here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70820837&postcount=38 which should enable you to reinstall the firmware which won't be rooted.
Im currently running MIUI 8.0.5.0.0 - stable
Am i still ok to continue with this update without it effecting my current setup of my phone? i.e. google play etc

There is an excellent backup system within MIUI so I'd recommend using that before any install.
If you go through those instructions, nothing much should change. The Play Store is included within the firmware so that's no issue. I'm not sure what the latest stable version is but I'm sure that link goes through to the most up to date version?

yeah iv stumbled at the first hurdle, as i cant get my phone to connect to my PC via cable, iv enabled 'developer options' and enabled 'USB debugging' and have allowed FTP via USB connection and also installed the Mi PC Suite, all drivers appear to install but it wont show up properly in file manager to allow me to copy over the ROM to the root of the phone, the PC Suite says my phone needs an update before it will connect, however its on the very latest updates, there are no more available for it!? Is it because the PC suite isnt suitable for Marshmallow based ROMs?

I'm not sure what instructions you're following but that doesn't sound familiar at all. There is no involvement with a PC or Mi Suite required.
Most of the instructions are here in this image: https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4024465&d=1485893799
Ignore the bit about downloading to the PC, download it directly using your phone.

I was attempting to download the ROM on my PC and then FTP it to the root of the phone, however i suppose i can download it straight onto my phone (when im at home connected to WIFI) otherwise all of my roaming data allowance will be eaten up in one foul swoop!
Iv just downloaded the ROM zip file onto the root of my phone, gone into "choose update package" and selected the ROM iv just downloaded, it thinks about it for a moment then states "Cant verify update" - 'Couldnt verify update package'

From what I remember, it doesn't go into the root folder, it goes in 'downloaded_rom' or something along those lines.
You may need to install the developer ROM then go back to stable for it to work correctly but I'm pretty sure as long as you get the firmware in the correct folder it should work.

Well the instructions on the link state:
"Step 1: Put the downloaded ROM into internal storage (not inside any folder)." - hence why i put it on the root.
However iv tried choosing both the ROM inside my 'Downloads' folder as well as the one on the root of the phone, still get the same message!?
