I got one with miui
but the miui in it is buggy...so i need to change the rom

but miui is official.
If you have miui and locked bootloader than you can't. If it did came with unofficial than your BL should already be unlocked so you can install mokee from recovery. And I would never flash one ROM over completely different one, so wipe everything first.

Thanks for replying guys
I finally flashed carbon rom(after flashing miui 10 )

[Q] Is CM firmware necessary after unlocking Kenzo? Need help!

Hello people, i just bought RN3 (Indian version with FPC sensor), i unlocked unofficially by flashing MIUI 7.1 and installed AICP 11 MM just after that, do i had to flash CM13 Firmware first?
Everything works fine but sometimes screen glitches and phone freezes so i have to force reboot it.
So should i now flash CM firmware? if yes with which TWRP? i'm using official twrp 3.0.2-2, reply soon....
Edit- solved
Flash CM firmware if your ROM is CM based at all, of course. If not, look for something in the ROM thread.

Personally I always flash it anyway. Fixes a few bugs like settings FC etc.

Which roms lock my bootloader??

Ok so right now i am on miui 8.1.4.0 global stable rooted. And i have zcx installed. So i would like to try:
Nitrogen OS
AOISP 5.5
Lineage OS 14.1
Resurrection Remix 5.8.1
Slim7
So will these rom lock my officially unlocked bootloader???
Also will zcx be a problem as i am likely going to restore to miui backup from any one of those roms will that break anything???

No,it's not gonna unlock your BL. Only if you install the miui MM from the miui lollipop,your BL will be unlocked.

None of those roms will lock your bootloader. Only rom that locks bl are miui stable roms. :good:

Even Miui Dev rom (Official of course) will lock your bootloader, but there are some modded miui roms such as xiaomi.eu, Epic rom or Multi rom with cracked/removed emmc_appsboot.mbn, which won't lock bl. And roms here on xda (aosp/cm based) don't even contain firmware, so they naturally can't lock bl.

[HELP] Kenzo stuck on Boot on latest Nougat ROMS.

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.

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:

Cannot Boot Custom ROMs Anymore. Just Bootloops

Been using the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 (Kenzo) for a long time now and since the ROM was outdated, I decided to update it this past weekend. However for whatever reason, something broke and I've been getting bootloops. Since then, this is what I did and it still doesn't work.
Used MiFlash to fastboot flash MIUI v8.5.1.0 Global Stable, and then OTA updated to v8.5.2.0.
Test the phone to make sure all functions work properly.
Immediately officially unlocked the bootloader using Mi Unlock.
Fastboot flashed TWRP 3.1.1.0.
Made EFS and ROM backups as usual.
Clean flashed Resurrection Remix 5.7.4 (Radon kernel) with /data and /cache as F2FS.
Flashed Open Gapps 6.0 ARM64 Mini.
Right now, I'm back to running stock MIUI v8.5.1.0, which was flashed using MiFlash. Then I did the OTA update to MIUI v8.5.2.0. May someone please guide me or correct the above steps in order to install the linked Resurrection Remix ROM? Or maybe a Nougat ROM?

Flash LOS 13 which is far stable than the RR 5.7.4. You should've flashed another rom before moving back to MIUI. The process you followed is correct but you also need to flash the compatible firmware like for RR you need CM13 firmare and for LOS you'll the recommended firmware posted in the thread itself.
I went through some ROM threads and one recommended flashing MIUI8 Global DEVELOPER and not Global STABLE. Am I supposed to be using MIUI 8 Global DEVELOPER as the starting point?

The Resurrection Remix build I linked is based off of LineageOS 13 so it should be stable.
So you're saying I missed flashing a firmware? I see some ROMs recommend flashing the firmware, while others don't. Which is the proper firmware to flash if the ROM thread doesn't state which firmware to use?

The one on this thread. Second post.
well seems to be a new problem...
so what must be done... i will suggest to get latest miui fastboot rom from here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/links-direct-official-download-links-t3449488
flash it via mi flash tool (im running 64 bit os ,so using mi flash beta ) in edl mode by wiping full things including storage..
if your boot loader is unlocked official way it must be unlocked now also if not i guess you know how to unlock it officially.
then use official twrp from
www.twrp.me
i faced this issue once and did the exact steps above and now no problem..
by the way i tried things like unplugging battery from the board... lol... read in miui forum...
I've been having very similar issues (updated official firmware in a non officially unlocked bootloader).
It's been hell but I've managed to get los14.1 installed. Now my issue lies with constant gapps crashes. I'm thinking of just giving up and getting miui.

I've tried yesterdays version. Play store wouldn't even open. Dirty flashed 0625 play store opens but a lot of apps crash, everything works fine with 0303.
I'm flashing miui and I'm going to try the official bootloader unlock, but this have been a couple of strange days.

dirty flashing isn't a solution ... theres changes in trees of the rom and kernel..
anyway head back to miui unlocl officially and when coming back to custom rom do wipe everything and give it a shot..probably the crash may be due to over written or exiating files...
happy flashing
~peace
I should mention I clean flashed the ROMs. Updated OP.
Ok trying it again right now and so far, this is what I did:
Used MiFlash to fastboot flash MIUI v7.7.6 Global DEV.
Test the phone to make sure all functions work properly.
Tried to unlock bootloader using Mi Unlock but it said bootloader is already unlocked.
Boot into MIUI again.
Fastboot flashed TWRP 3.1.1.0.
No boot into MIUI.
Flash Kenzo firmware 8.2.4.0 in TWRP
Clean flash LineageOS 13 and Open Gapps 6.0 ARM64 Mini with /data and /cache in EXT4
IT WORKS!
I guess now I'll try Resurrection Remix.

Stuck on boot animation Resurrection Remix

STUCK ON BOOT ANIMATION
I have a Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 (Kenzo). When installing latest version of Resurrection Remix of this device(July 9, weekly) , it gets gets stuck on " Get Resurrected" logo (more than 15 mins). I saw a video on YouTube, flashing ROM, dated 25th April(nightly). I did the same and woah, it worked. Why is this happening?
Here's what I did (from starting)--
1. Was on MIUI version 8.5. Downgraded to 7.18, unlocked bootloader (unofficially).
2. Installed twrp 3.0.2 recovery. Wiped everything (except microSD).
3. Flashed cm14.1 firmware ( read on xda or something that flash this before flashing any nougat ROM).
4. Flashed latest build, with gapps, and mi boot logo.
5. Stuck on "get Resurrected".
6. As I was stuck, I wiped everything (except microSD). Now flashed 25th April ROM, with gapps and Mi boot logo.
And everything works fine in this. Although LED continuously flashes red while charging, but it isn't much of a problem.
Anyone else encountered this problem? 
You have to upgrade your bootloader to flash latest custom ROMs , find tutorial to unlock bootloader on MIUI 8 . That's it everything will be fine .

You are saying that I don't have to downgrade to miui7, instead, I need to unlock bootloader from miui 8. Right?

I flashed latest China Dev ROM and unlocked officially. And flashed latest RR ROM . It's working great. But I have a doubt. I didn't flash any firmware. Will it give me problems later on?
Also, is the bootloader relocked now?
Don't worry bootloader is still unlocked if you are from China dev it's good but better flash Global dev firmware if you're from any other place or if experiencing some issues
