Hey guys.
I recently bought Redmi Note 3 and I like it quite a lot. I have always preferred stock ROMs but did not dislike MIUI.
The problem is that my phone is still at Android Lollipop. I would like it to be at least at Nougat.
That's when I applied for bootloader unlock code, I got the response the very next day that I was eligible for the unlock.
However, the problem is that for some reason the Mi Unlock tool refuses to recognize me phone. I have tried different different drivers, ports, installed Mi Pc Suite etc. Nothing seems to work.
I got really annoyed by it and started looking for alternative solutions, I realized that there was an unofficial bootloader unlock method, however, that was also fairly risky.
Now what I want to ask is. There are quite a few unofficial bootloader unlock method. Which one should I go with? I'm on MIUI 8.1 Global Stable
Can I install TWRP on an unofficially unlocked device?
Can I flash custom ROMs? And if yes, what ROMs can be flashed without a problem anything on an unofficially unlocked bootloader device?
What are the best ROMs without any major issues? Does Xposed work on 7.1?
I'll greatly appreciate any help.
Hello there,
I also faced this problem after i applied for official bootloader unlock. After searching for a lot of articles i came across this one article where we can install TWRP and Lineage OS without unlocking bootloader.
This article also has a link for a YouTube tutorial. I have tried this on my phone and this method works flawlessly.
Just follow every step from YouTube video or the article itself :-
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/kate-guide-install-lineage-os-locked-t3546154
As for the part of choosing best ROM, i personally prefer Lineage OS because it is much more stable but ofcourse u can try out other ROM like Nitrogen OS, Resurrection Remix or AOSP 8.0
Update latest Official MIUI bate then try unlock

I can just flash the beta OS in fastboot, right?
Hi guys,
Trying to get this device to get a little support here are my experiences that I would like to share so far.
I have the Honor Note 10 8/128. It's unlocked. It has TWRP and it is rooted.
Now I would like to install something else than EMUI, maybe even Pie.
So here is what I was able to find out :
- it is possible to install the OpenKirin Project : Resurrection Remix and OmniRom and boot them ; but the fingerprint scanner doesn't work to wake device in Resurrection Remix (could not test in Omni ROM : I'll do that later tonight) ;
- it is possible to boot from at least one custom ROM made for "berkeley" (Honor View 10). And there, everything works... But of course, really few customization. Also, I was able to find out that, as soon as I install an AOSP based ROM, rebooting into TWRP fails : TWRP remains stuck at "splash" screen...
So I think it's really close to being able to run a s custom AOSP based ROM on the Honor Note 10, but that would require someone with a little more dev skills than I have to look into that
Anyone with such skills around here ? It would be really great to be able to have the Honor Note 10 running Resurrection Remix (Oreo) or Havoc (Pie)...
Regards.

Sorry but you do not just flash ROMs for other phones that can go wrong
Hi guys,
Well, you're obviously not interested in this...
You're happy with EMUI, so be it...
Me, I don't really like it
I really would like AOSP based which I am accustomed to.
And despite what is written here, I would like to stress that :
- when Treble was announced by Google, Huawei/Honor praised themselves to offer fully compliant devices with Treble ;
- Honor View 10 and Honor Note 10 share the same hardware, excet for display... and thus I have been able to boot PixelExperience for berleley (Honor View 10) into Note 10...
But of course, if you'd ratehr stick to EMUI and would like me to stop sharing my thoughts here, I will do.
Regards.
I haven't unlock my phone yet, but flashing GSI via fastboot seems to be the safest way.
Custom ROMs from honor view 10 work well on this phone. Currently using pixel experience and it is running perfectly

Hi,
Yes, we share the same experience.
But you will notice that this channel is dead : no developer support for this device and custom ROM allergic people participating here
So basically : no interest from manufacturer ; no interest from developer ; no interest from users...
I switched to Xiaomi mi Max 3 : no real custom ROM there, but at least some interest from community and manufacturer who keeps updating the ROM.
Regards.

Have you tried the BLISS rom from the same forum? With the holiday time off coming up I'm going to buy my unlock code and give roms a chance.

can you please make a thread with step by step guide, how to install Pixel Experience ROM in Honor Note 10.
Thanks for all the info guys. I an looking to get this phone and install any of the ROMs from openkirin.
Is it a bad decision ? If I install the ROMs many for view 10, will I be able to update them OTA ?
Please comment/advise.
Thanks in Advance.

Have we devised a work around for "Stuck at TWRP Splash"? Flashed Bliss from view 10 and wanted to look at Pixel Exp. but can not re-enter TWRP.
And to those of you running Pixel Exp. without issue, have you tried going back into TWRP?

Hi,
Can't say as I don't run the device anymore...
No interest from manufacturer.
No interest from developers.
No interest in development from the community here.
No interest for buyers.
My Honor Note 10 8/128 in Black is on an ad since about 40 days, and not a single reply even though I think I have positioned it fairly as a price
This is probably the best phone I've had, but the worst buy I've made for the aforementioned reasons...
Blame Honor. This was my first attempt. And will be the last. And I will of course spread the news all around me to as much people as I can.
It's funny : when I look around, my students who all had Honor or Huawei (apart from iPhones of course and of Samsung also) now more and more have OnePlus and Xiaomi devices...
No more Honor ; no more Huawei.
And they're absolutely not geeks by any means...
As a wild guess I'd say that they rely on geek friends who tell them not to buy Honor anymore.
And so I'll join that anti-Honor/Huawei league unless they change their policies about unlocking the bootloader.
And I am saying this because Huawei presented themselves as the best student in class for Treble support when it was announced.
Where are we now ?
Another promise not kept...
No support for Treble, no updates after 6 months device is released, no source code given, no unlocking of bootloader...
They can just use their device as suppositories.
Hope that will cure them from that closed source disease that is spreading more and more...
Regards.

Hi,
Sell those fairy tales to somebody else please...
5-6 updates in 3 months ? Probably. i've witnessed 2 updates.
And one of those forbids to change the default launcher... Is that an update or a severe regression ?
You can unlock the bootloader ?
Well, I've tried to boot the device in fastboot mode and to type "fastboot oem-unlock"... Guess what ? It did nothing...
To unlock this device, I had to go to an obscure website from probably a hacker/retailer that does it "grey", to pay 25 dollars and to wait for an unlock code...
All other phones I've had so far (Motorola, Sony, OnePlus, Xiaomi)... at worst you had to ask for an unlock code on the manufacturer's website and got it free !
Treble support ?
Come on... Did you even tried to install GSI to this device and had it working properly with no severe battery drain ?
Well, as you know from my other posts : I've tried it all... Even to flash Berkeley (Honor View 10) custom Rom's.
And when I was luck, the device booted...
But even then a lot of things weren't working properly : BT, display brightness...
And look at the facts :
- how much devs working on this device ? 0
- how many custom ROMs fro this device ? 0
- how many TWRP for this device ? 1 (unofficial)
- how many custom kernels for this device ? 0
- hon many posts about development for this device in the past week ? 2
So all in all how's support for this device from manufacturer or community ?
- community : 0
- manufacturer : -1 (for regressive releases of EMUI !).
Yopu can answer... You're the only one active on this channel... Truth is : no one wants this device anymore.
It made high promises and did not deliver...
Regards.

My Answer:
You can see that you have no idea about the whole thing.
You have to buy a Unlock Code!I paid $ 22 and it was worth it!
HN10 is support Treble,but you have to wait for a Rom for this Device.
I buy with firmware 108,next update 120 next 123 next 125,next 132 next 132,next 151 and the latest 158!
If you have no idea, you should rather leave it!
Hi,
I am new to custom roms and have a Huawei mediapad tablet T1 on which I wanted to install custom rom, but I discovered that I need code for unlocking bootloader, which isn't provided by Huawei now directly, but paid codes are now provided by third parties. Is it still possible to get these codes for free?
If not, then I plan to buy a new tablet, allowing custom rom installation. Can you please recommend which tablet manufacturer or tablet model is most friendly for such custom roms installation?
Looking forward to your response.

If you're looking for tablet for installing custom roms, it is bad idea)) Now, no one wants to do custom roms for tablets, because iPad exists)) But if you dont care, you can buy Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite (30+ roms for this device), or Xiaomi PocoPhone F1 (20+ roms for this device). But, if you are really need android tablet for Custom ROMs, buy Samsung tablet, cuz, now it is the most popular tablet manufucturer from android world.
sorry for late answer):silly:
By the way, sorry for my language, im ukrainian))
UPD: There's no way to get unlock code for Huawei Bootloader. Exists unofficial methods, but better no try))
Hi All,
I've recently purchased a Huawei MediaPad M5 8.4 tablet, wit the default EMUI interface.
The device has recently upgraded from Android 8 to 9.
I'd like to install a custom ROM to see the differences in speed as well as reducing the amount of bloatware on the device.
Can anyone point out any available ROM's for the device that are tested and fully functioning?
I've read about Lineage OS but as far as I'm aware this is stuck at Android 8 level.
Any help would be great.
Thanks!

Did you receive a bootloader unlock code and did you unlock your bootloader? Otherwise you cannot install any custom ROM on your device.
Hi AndDiSa,
I've not been given any codes unfortunately. I bought the tablet from Amazon, boxed and new.
Is this code something I can obtain from the manufacturer, as it will still be under support and warranty?
Thanks

Sorry, but Huawei stopped giving away unlock codes more than 1.5 years ago. I doubt there is an easy way to get it nowadays .
