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 ..
I just want root access and continue using my phone normally. ( and receive future OTAs) What would u recommend. ??

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..

hi,
I have a RN3 SD currently running MIUI 8.0.1.0 Official Global version. I have officially unlocked bootloader on my device.
I am planning to flash Official CM13 on my device.
So, here are my questions ...
1. If I have a nandroid backup of MIUI 8 and supposed I am not happy with CM13, can I simply restore the nandroid backup and will everything be working the way it is now?
2. Will I keep receiving OTA updates from Xiaomi even though I have an Officially unlocked bootloader?
Or is there some step involved before reverting back to MIUI 8.
I will be very grateful if someone can answer this for me.
Thank you
Hi! I have officially unlocked my bootloader.
Can I just follow this steps(no more no less) to go back to Stock MIUI?
http://en.miui.com/a-234.html
i'm afraid because I read that it may cause a bootloop to Mi logo only
i'm currently using ALKA TWRP
one more thing I have backup my MIUI rom before flashing custom roms, can I just restore my MIUI backup?
I took the risk and flash through fastboot MiFlash. Worked well

Yes, if I've understood you correctly
I was on the stock nougat Miui (sorry, idk the version of Miui 10) with unlocked bootloader but stock recovery.
Updated to the new stable pie (Miui global stable 10.1.3.0 PEJMIFI) by downloading the firmware and upgrading with System Update through settings
No problems
Edit- said above I was on stock nougat Miui - slip of the brain - meant Oreo obviously, but you knew that!
