Please suggest me ROM that is bugless?? Or atleast with least bugs that won't create any problem to my daily usage.
Process to unlock bootloader? Will it void my warranty or rooting does void warranty?
It's my first MI phone. So I can't understand bootloader process.
Since I am on stock. Just would you suggest me to be in stock? Or use custom ROM??. Already have used all custom roms in my previous device (less specs) but there was no fun. Still ported "android one" is in progress??
Sorry for too many questions. I am just confused watching these forums since two weeks unable to decide.
Buy Nokia 3310 and play snake.

Lineage 15.1 by meedjay is byfar best custom ROM available for Redmi note 5.
For unlocking -https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5/how-to/how-to-how-to-unlock-redmi-5-plus-t3750250
Unlocking your phone willnot void warranty but if u root or flash custom ROM , your warranty is now void .You can always get back to global version by miflashtool .
I suggest you to be on stock because other custom ROM are so buggy like volte video call do not work , camera force close . Xiaomi is developer freindly so it's stock has everything u need .

Hello Guys,
I'm planning to buy a Redmi Note 3. But I'm not a fan of MIUI 7. I know the warranty will be void if I rooted the device / flashed a custom recovery / custom rom.
If I flashed the Stock rom & recovery again, would I be able to claim the warranty ?
Thanks,
- yM
I think yes. Nut in order to unlock it you must apply in a form with your e mail, plus to unlock it you must have the same acc in the unlocker and the phone...

As per my knowledge your warranty is not void for xiaomi devices if you install custom ROM or rooted it.

That doents doesn't make sense if you root it and overclock it
And fry the cpu then why would this be considered
Repairable through warranty...?

I said about just rooting and installing of custom ROM not about over clocking and all....[emoji6]
Sent from my Redmi Note 3 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Well to request warranty to fix somethings means that something is wrong with the device like a fried motherboard, a not working Bluetooth chip and other small things inside the phone..... Rooting it and changing the rom enables you to tinker around and maybe fry the phone. So if your phone is broken and they see that you have rooted it they will make the assumption that you destroyed it in a way and decline to fix it. Further more if you want to change rom or root it you need to unlock the bootloader which means that they already know that you tried to do something after purchasing the phone. ?
Biluris out ?
Thinking of buying either Kenzo or Kate, but wondering if there is less development for Kate?
And how can I tell the difference between them on sellers sites?

As a kate user i would like to suggest you to buy Kate................... this is the best among all others, if you are good with flashing rom as well as customization. You might face unlocking boot-loader problem but there is a lot of solution. what you u need is just patience.

But isn't most of the development of ROM's for Kenzo?
Who said? You can easily use all of the kenzo rom as well as kernel without having any major problem... Sometimes you will get more facility than kenzo, like fingerprint issue.. what you havo to do (must) is to install firmware before installing any custom rom..
Here is the link (bellow) of all roms. Good luck & have fun
If you're going to test nougat then let me know. I will give u best rom & kernel link, according to my opinion.

Hi guys, quick question here.
I have bought a Redmi Note 4 , 32gb/3gb Snapdragon one.
I have these questions.
How is warranty affected after rooting our device ?
How is warranty affected by uunlocking the bootloader ?
What features won't work after unlocking the bootloader ?
What to keep in mind, to avoid problms in future , would xiaomi service centres be of any help ?
Thank you. Please answer separately for each question.
Xiaomi just like onePlus supports rooting....
So don't worry...
You can always get back your warranty by Just flashing the global stable ROM...
Also all the features will work after unlocking bootloader...
Do remember that it's you who is willing to make the changes and I'm not responsible if anything goes wrong...
Avoid rooting if you don't have adequate knowledge...

1) You void your warranty on rooting your device
2) Unlocking the bootloader itself doesn't void your warranty.. but the Mi Unlock tool clearly states whatever happens after the bootloader unlock (custom ROM install and stuff) is your responsibility.. so if something happens during those processes, the warranty is void..
3) according to xiaomi, things like Encryption and find my device won't properly work..
4) flash original fastboot rom and relock the bootloader if you want to take the thing to service center.. the only situation where your warranty truly is void is if you manage to brick it beyond repair, which is almost impossible to do.. (you can make a xiaomi deep flash cable (google it) to fix the device even when you can't directly boot into fastboot mode)
P.S. - i haven't done the deep flash stuff.. just posting what I learnt on the internet
---------- Post added at 07:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:44 PM ----------
As long as the technicians get the phone running unrooted stock MIUI, they won't complain..
PS - again this is according to the internet.. i have not tested this..

Nothing to worry, just do eet!
I remember the case when i bricked my galaxy S1 back in those years 2 times and I took it to the service center in india which was almost a kilometre from my house and i told the guy that it got bricked when i was charging it.. He replaced the motherboard and gave me both the times.. And told me that I probably had a loose connection at home ?.. I told him I'll get it fixed.. Thats the only device i ever bricked and that too because it was the first device i was trying to mod.. Its really tough to brick the newer devices.. But i dont know if the trick i used still works with the service centres today..
Before this i only experience root phone that has no warranty. Now with this info, it make sense. When restore the stock ROM everything goes back to normal on my old Samsung device. That mean the device is fully restore as original which mean restore the warranty as well. Thanks Guys, just got my redmi note 4 SD and will install Resurrection Remix right away.

If you are planning to install custom rom asap then you should check out the bootloader unlock guide to be prepared for your bootloader unlock.. As unlocking the bootloader can be a time taking task...

Hi ak_baik
Hello.
I am from KL too and going to get one Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 (SD) soon. Can you share your success on step by step ......
1. How to unlock the bootloader?
2. How to root it?
3. How to install the TWRP and also the back up too?
4. Do you need to flash the latest Firmware (Upgrade your Miui 9) before doing the RR 5.8.5 10/25 stable version?
Currently, I have installed RR on my both Galaxy S2 GT-9100 and Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N9005) >>> Beautifully thumb Up!

Welcome to Xiaomi Family..
You can just browsing in Redmi Note 4 xda section for the tutorial.
1. Unlock bootloader (the most annoying part)
2. Install Twrp via fastboot
3. Flash Rom & Magisk or anything you prefer.
4. Done, that's it...
For miui i do not backup anything since brand new n nothing to backup and dont worry about warranty. You can restore back to original version by flashing stock rom from xiaomi then you can claim for warranty with no issue, i have done it before.

I am very keen to know about flashing ROMs
I am using Redmi note 3 SD 3G. I want to flash the pixel ROM for my device and I have the following doubts
1) Do I need to unlock my bootloader or without unlocking my bootloader I can directly flash TWRP?
2) If yes, then do I need a beta version of MIUI for unlocking my bootloader cause I have been trying since a very long time but it is stuck at 50%(I tried all the solutions).
Thanks a lot in advance
1. U have to unlock ur bootloader for flashing custom recovery .
2. it should be unlocked on any version but dev versions have more chance of unlocking than stable ones (especially china rom,s have high probability )
3 U can try unofficial bootloader unlocking but do it on ur own risk as it can hard brick ur device .

Wait for a few days or couple of weeks, that helped in my case. Update and try syncing your Mi account on your phone.
Follow the instructions here
http://en.miui.com/unlock/
If nothing works, follow this guide, just flash any ROM of your choice with TWRP.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/kate-guide-install-lineage-os-locked-t3546154
And if you want the Pixel experience, install PureNexus ROM, it is better.
Just flash lineageos with stock gapps. And then flash my universal pixelmod. It will give you full pixel experience. Nav bar not included yet. Will include it in future.
I want to unlock my Poco F1 bootloader and install a custom rom in it and I want to know that will it void my warranty.
I massaged to Poco India support about this and they said that unlocking the bootloader will not void my warranty but if I install any custom rom then it will void my warranty.
When applying for any warranty issues u can reflash stock and go to service centre

Just unlocking bootloader wont void warranty. anyway even if flash custom roms and root your device, u can flash stock rom and relock bootloader using mi flash tool if u need to visit service center.
Still risky but worth it
Imagine the circumstances where your phone's display is dead or maybe your battery is faulty or you're just unable to boot for some reason. Then you're just screwed. The warranty is already void because you wanted to flash that new rom which imo is already miles better than MIUI. And now you've to pay full price for the battery or display or mb, even though it's been only 3 months since you bought it. Expect zero to minimum support from the companies when it comes to any type of flashing or customizing. Hence, every rom has this BIG disclaimer that it may or will void warranty and they can't do anything about it.
When it comes to flashing roms and kernels, you're completely responsible for everything you do. For me and afaik, most of the xda community don't really care about the warranty but for the minority of people who actually do, be ready to take that risk if you want that sweet Pixel like experience on your Poco F1.

Please cultivate the habit of searching the forum before asking clarifications or creating a new thread. Read HERE
I would rely on the email rather than on the Chat. Also this is not the only time Xiaomi confirmed this position.

i dont think u need root for flash kernels. if u want to unroot just open magisk manager and hit uninstall from there or download magisk uninstaller zip then flash it through twrp
