hi everyone am on the last global stables 10.3.6 am facing battery drain and slow battery charging.
i want to rollback to the beta 10.9.6.24 everything is perfect there.
can you plz explain me how to do step by step .
do i need to unlock the bootloader ? use mi flash tool ? and falsh fastboot 10.9.6.24 ( where can i downloaded it )?
any help is welcome
There are 3 ways for rolling back:
1. download recovery rom and simply flash it via twrp ( which is the most common) but since you have locked BL and therfore no TWRP you can't use this method.
2. download fastboot rom and flash it via miflashtool (by putting fone in fastboot mode) this is the best method for you and one that works with locked BL. Also make sure that you are flashing the FASTBOOT version of the rom. Since there are 2 versions for each Rom. Recovery rom and fast boot rom. And as mentioned earlier, you will need fast boot rom for this method.
3. EDL method but you will never use that, it involves putting phone in EDL mode (back panel is remove and two short points are touched via wire on motherboard and usb cable is plugged in and then fastboot rom is FLASHED by miflash tool, this is usually done on BRICKED Xiaomi phones and MIFLASH asks for AUTHORISED ACCOUNT, which atm are only found in their official service centers.

We never had a version 10.9.6.24. U can only go for 9.6.24 (beta rom) or 10.x.x.x (stable rom).

This link below contains all MIUI roms that have ever been released to this date.
https://xiaomifirmware.com/roms/official-roms-for-xiaomi-pocophone-f1/
Also as someone else mentioned, there has never been a rom such as the one you stated. The latest global stable rom is 10.3.x.x and will probably take years to reach 10.9.x.x. You must be confusing it with beta roms that usually start with 9.x.x.x serial.
And as you will be going from stable to beta, make sure you backup EVERYTHING or you will loose it.
Going from stable to beta, or vice versa, wipes the phone of all data...
You have been warned...

Hi y'all!
I'm really having trouble flashing an official stable rom on my device. The rom archive is miui_HM3_V7.3.2.0.LHPCNDD_6a5e1bc33c_5.1.zip.
I downloaded it and copied it to a folder (downloaded_rom) on the internal storage of my redmi 3. After selecting it in the updater app I get asked whether it's OK to delete all data, because the rom I'm updating to is older than the one installed. My phone's miui version is MIUI 77. Stable 77.1.1.0 (LHPCNCK). The doble 7s seem odd to me and may be part of my problem (I bought the phone like that). Then, the device is rebooting and I can see some kind of progression bar for a couple of seconds on the botton of the screen but then it just reboots into android and nothing changed
I also tried to flish it via Mi PC suite. Here, after connecting the device in fastboot mode, I got the message that my device isn't supported.
I also believe that the bootloader is locked and I already got the "permission" from xiaomi to unlock it but I had no luck with this either. The Mi unlock tool is telling me, that the "current account is different from the account info on the device" which wasn't the case after I double checked.
Am I missing something here?
kind regards

yes.
because you are currently in modified rom (rom supplier or seller, etc, etc) you cannot update or do anything about it
flash the official rom using miflash method
after that you can update using updater program

I'll try that and report back. Thanks!
Okay, finally I managed to flash my phone with the newest miui.eu rom. What I did was:
- Flashing the official Xiaomi Rom (MiFlash package) via MiFlash (1st try in Win32 wasn't working. 2nd try on Win64 did the job)
- I had to update to the newest official stable OTA, because somehow, I wasn't able to unlock my bootloader with the older version.
- I unlocked the bootloader using the MiFlashUnlocker.
- Updated to the official MIUI 8 dev rom using updater app on my phone
- On dev rom I granted root acces to flashify and flashed the twrp recovery image on my device (which gets wiped from my device every time I reboot - anyone knows why??)
- Reboot into recovery and flash the MIUI.eu zip which is now running on my device.
Thanks for the help guys!
Hi.
I am having the same problem, with pre-installed rom: MIUI 77.1.1.0 Stable. The updater app obviously doesn't work (now i know why) and the MiFlash software doesn't seem to work either. It doesn't recognise the phone, browsing to the downloaded rom does nothing. Am i missing something?
Update, it now recognises the phone, but miflash is saying it can't find the file specified (0x80070002: Execute flash_all.bat)
Thanks for any assistance you can give.
Update 2. Just found out you need a different version of the Rom for fastboot. available from http://en.miui.com/a-234.html for anyone searching.
Okay so Miflash began the process when i had the Fastboot rom, but failed at about 2 percent as the device is locked.
Although i have permission the Mi unlock tool won't unlock my phone as it says the accounts don't match that on the phone, although i have quadruple checked them.
Research suggests it might be a problem with the custom rom on my phone, or that i need to be on the China Dev rom to unlock?
But i can't flash the China Dev Rom!!!
Is there any way to get my device to stock rom?
Sorted.
For the benefit of anyone searching, i followed the instructions here: http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=redirect&goto=findpost&ptid=242867&pid=4510751
Hi my friends.
this is my story :
my phone is Redmi note 3 pro (qualqomm)
I got permissions for unlocking a week ago.
then i tried xiaomi website unlock method but it stopped at 50% and gave me couldn't verify device (different account) error.
my rom is global (MIUI 8) . then i tried to flash dev rom with updater app but it gave me couldn't verify update package error. i cleared updater data and tried again but same error.
in next step i tried mi pc suite to flash but no success.
then i used fastboot mode and mi flash and i got locked bootloader error.
then i used EDL mode to flash but in mi flash i got hello package error. (object reference not set to an instance of an object)
i completely confused . i tried all methods and read many fix like login in i.mi.com and other method that people fixed their problem but all of them not fix mine.
i read some threads about flashing twrp and root without unlocking bootloader but all of them need flashing dev rom and i can't flash.
can anyone help me?

I just recently went through most of what you have gone through... Be patient though... It seems that the unlocking of bootloader even after you getting permission, takes atleast 2-3 weeks more.
- You can flash the miui global dev rom, you may download it from the miui forums... Here is the link for the fastboot rom http://en.miui.com/a-234.html.
- To flash the dev rom, you need to ensure you put your phone into fastboot, ensure all the fastboot drivers are installed on your computer
- Also, you need to ensure that you download the GLOBAL/DEV FASTBOOT ROM(this is different than the regular zip package) that you download.
- Then you can follow the instructions to install the ROM using miflash tool
- If the ROM installation is a success, then you just need to wait patiently atleast for 15-20 days from the time you got unlock permission sms from MI
- Then try running the flash unlock tool, it should get unlocked.
- Now flashing TWRP might be tricky, I was able to flash the official TWRP, but had issues where the internal memory wasn't getting mounted, because you keep getting asked for decryption password in TWRP to mount the data, no matter what you enter, it might not work
- After trying many TWRP types, the one that worked was "zcx twrp"
- Once you flash that, you should be able to flash any custom or miui roms you need :good:

You may try the steps on this link http://en.miui.com/thread-235865-1-1.html
Skip the EDL thing and go directly to the part where they explain how to use the miflash tool to flash a fastboot ROM
I should have asked this first... what's the state of your phone right now? Does it boot, stuck on boot loop, or are you able to boot into some ROM.
maybe u have a vendors rom, flash the fastboot rom using edl
finally a downloaded adb 1.4.3 and installed it and i flashed dev rom in EDL mode.
but now i have some questions:
can i change kernel with locked bootloader?
if i change kernel does fingerprint work?
You just dont have proper drivers installed im 100% sure, else it would go via edl
Hehe was right������
And why dont you ask for official unlock approval? Its approved in less than a day, anyone saying otherwise have old news
Or you can always use a method in this forum...
I am very confused on how to root RN3 (SD 650).
I need rooting for
- Titanium backup
- Adblock
There are multiple terms and multiple posts. Can any one guide.
What is Kenzo, Kate .... ?
What is global dev/chinese rom?
What I have learnt so far
Step 1 - I need to unlock bootloader. But how ??
Official method - Does it require flashing a new rom? Will I loose data?
Unofficial - Is there any safe method?
Step 2 - Flash recovery
Cofface and ZCX are stable TWRPs. Which one to use.
i unlocked on global stable (so no data loss) no need of dev ROM ( it depends on luck)
try logging in on miunlock tool and micloud with mobile no (as username)only. If it fails try tommorow. repetition can do no good.
I unlocked on stable rom on my first attempt of the day.
my last attempt was weeks ago (primarily because i thought it was a lost cause)
thread http://en.miui.com/thread-280561-1-1.html
zcx for backing up ROMs ,
while updating through zcx to 6.11.24 many had bootloop(easily fixed by miunlock again).
so i updated through cofface no big problem ( the only problem i had was the system launcher was not loading fixed when i installed xposed again) always take backup before updating
first thing first. apply for bootloader unlocking. thn unlock it through mi unlock tool. if u are new to these things thn dont try unofficial methods.
hope this helps.

Welcome to Redmi Note 3 family.
Kenzo or Kate?
Snapdragon standard variant is called as a 'kenzo' and special edition Redmi note 3 with different radios version is called as a 'kate'.
Global/ Chinese?
There are two types of MIUI ROMs.
1. Global
2. Chinese
Difference in these both ROMs is that, you will find some chinese material here and there in chinese ROM. Global is fully in english.
Again there are two subtypes of these two ROMs which are Stable and Dev/Beta. Sometimes Beta/Dev ROM is also called as a 'weekly'.
So basically most of the devices have 4 official MIUI ROMs which are:
1. Global Stable
2. Global Beta or Global Dev
3. Chinese Stable
4. Chinese Beta or Dev
There is no connection between the type of ROM and unlocking bootloader.
Bootloader unlock method?
Since you know there are two methods to unlock the bootloader, I will discuss them one by one.
1. Official
You don't require to flash any latest or dev or chinese ROM to unlock using official method.
First of all you need a persmission from Xiaomi to unlock the bootloader.
Goto http://en.miui.com/unlock/
Login here. The account should be same as the one is on your phone.
Write the reasons for unlocking.
After that Xiaomi will grant you the permission. If you don't receive any SMS from Xiaomi, just check on the above link.
Even if you get the permission its most likely you will not able to unlock nootloader on first attepmt. But don't worry, try again after few days.
Use MiUnlock tool. Once you get the permision, that tool will be available on the above link or you can always download from here http://en.miui.com/unlock/download_en.html
2. Unofficial
I have unlocked my phone by unofficial method 6-7 months ago and I still have no issues at all.
Open this folder https://mega.nz/#F!LUxlHJBC!RK5_8fta4XWAVFqWoWrvjQ
It has everything what you need for unlocking bootloader unofficially.
Just follow this guide and you are good to go: GUIDE
You might have to disable Driver Signature Verification if you are using Windows 8 or higher (google it)
Recovery?
I will suggest you only and only following recoveries:
If you have unlocked your bootloader officially, You must use ZCX only.
If you have unlocked your bootloader unofficially, you must use either Alka or Cofface
Here is a thread where you will find everything about recoveries.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/guide-redmi-note-3-available-twrps-t3406708
All download links are in that thread.
Hope this will help! Happy flashing! :fingers-crossed: :highfive:

What are you saying !!! .. This is more than what I could have asked for to start. :good: Many thanks for taking time to compile the information.
One more noob query. I have RN3 3GB 32GB version. Is it special edition or normal?
I am planning to flash unofficially - Recovery - Alka
One question - In your mega folder Kenzounlock.zip was uploaded in Sept. Can I use the "Redmi Note 3 Qualcomm Latest Global Stable Version Fastboot File Download" from http://en.miui.com/a-234.html as replacement.
Many thanks for your help.

I have same device. No problrm at all.
'kenzounlock.zip' should be flashed. Only that zip grants you ability to unlock bootloader. Don't flash any other zip.
Don't foget to activate 'OEM Unlocking' from Developer Options
To unlock Developer Options, tap on 'MIUI Version' 7 times.
Developer Options is situated at Settings>Additional Settings.
@skad00sh Unfortunately I moved forward with latest global stable zip.
- Unzip global stable Kenzo zip
- Found the unocked emmc_appsboot.mbn from the forum
- Replaced the file in /images folder
- Miflash (Beta version gave length less than zero error) therefore used MiFlash 20160401
- Flashed rom
- Fastboot mode
- Unlocked boot loader -> Auto reboot
- Had to force fastboot
- Oem device-info tells bootloader unlocked
- Reboot
- Red light blinking while charging
- Rom booted successfully.
Not sure why red light is blinking while charging
Edit :
I was able to use another emmc_appsboot.mbn from http://forum.xda-developers.com/red...nlock-twrp-t3494833/post69484805#post69484805.
Reflashed with replaced file. Now no more blinking red light.
Cofface TWRP from below link worked. Alka did not work.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/tutorial-miui-8-0-1-0-global-stable-t3449039
Rebooting now... Fingers crossed ..

So far you have done great!
Congrats!!
Red Light Blinking is common issue on unofficially unlocked bootloader devices.
Its just a firmware issue which can be fixed by flashing proper firmware.
Flash ROM from xiaomi.eu. Those ROMs are very clean and works perfectly with titanium backup. The issue with official MIUI ROM is that every time to try to restore a app from titanium backup, it asks for your permision. It is so annoying. Xiaomi.eu provides clean ROMs. These ROMs are unlocked bootloader friendly. These will not relock your bootloader.
Link for the ROM.
I recommend you to flash this ROM. Updated on 1st December.
In case you want to use current ROM without changing anything, you can flash following MIUI firmware from recovery... and you will be done with that red light thingy!
MIUI Firmware Link
I wonder why you still want to use MIUI when you can taste Nougat 7.1 easily!
In case if you want to use nougat, I will recommend you to use CyanogenMod 14.1, Ressurection Remix, AICP (I felt these ROMs are highly stable than other)

Red light issue - [refer to edit in my previous reply. ]It is fixed. I had to use a different bootloader file. It worked with latest global stable.
Recovery I was unable to use Alka recovery (refer to your mega folder) . Had to install Cofface (refer to my previous reply).
EU Roms - My bad. I was not aware of those. Sigh !! so much effort I put. You are right TiBU asks about every single app restore. Besides for some app .. it hanged. I had to force reboot. Can I install these rom using TWRP Cofface recovery??
Nougat - This is my SO's fone. I need a stable daily driver for her. This is a day old phone. May be after sometime I will try 7.1
Honestly, I was very scared with RN3. It was my most confusing rooting. Compared to Moto Defy > Galaxy S3 > OP3 .. which were all very easy to manipulate.. But RN3 ..
Your initial post really paved way for me to move forward. Sincere thanks to you and others who helped me with my queries.
One thing is surprising that Cofface TWRP does not show EFS backup option
Wasn't the MTK variant called hennesy? and the rmn3 pro(sd650) with extra cellular bands called the kate.

There are 3 variants in the Redmi Note 3 series
RN3MTK code named "Hennessy" - with Mediatek SoC
RN3SD code named "Kenzo" - (with Qualcomm/SoC is Snapdragon 650), also called "Pro"
RN3SD Special Edition, code named "Kate" - "International version"also called "Special Edition" (Kate variant) of "pro", includes 800 base band (4g in somes isolated areas) and hardware is 2mm higher than kenzo.
Edit: Oops @Ivanlai You wrote the same thing. Looks like I still have lots of confusion . :silly:

Rename that Alka recovery file to 'recovery.img' then copy it to your Minimal ADB and Fastboot folder.
After that open command prompt in that folder and enter following command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Then alka will be installed.
You can flash EU roms directly from any recovery.
@skad00sh
1) Should I update recovery from Cofface to Alka ? If yes, how fastboot flash or TWRP install?
2) Before installing EU rom, do I need to replace the bootloader file emmc_appsboot.mbn

1. Yes use Alka. It has all backup options. You will filnd EFS and other backup options in it. Since you have unlocked officially, use Alka only. An you can install it directly through TWRP install. No issues.
2. No need to replace emmc_appsboot.mbn for EU ROMs. They are specially made for unlocked bootloader devices only. So you can directly flash EU ROMs without any worry.

Thank you.. I flashed the latest 6.12.1 while waiting for the reply got stuck in mi account log in screen.. Clean flashed 6.11.3 and then dirty flashed 6.12.1 and lazy flasher.. Works perfect.. Using Cofface TWRP
Alright folks - heres where I'm at.
I started off having the phone brand new as of christmas.. I managed to get the bootloader unlocked, and TWRP installed. for some reason (and i've searched for days now with no success) i kept getting this error in twrp when installing a rom "unable to mount /persist invalid argument" ... So after not having any luck with custom installed roms, bootloops i decided to put the phone back to factory. Factory from the MIUI website which was 8.1.1...
Well, since unlocking bootloader (unofficial way) and upgrading to 8.1.1 - the phone will not turn on. it just says Encryption Unsuccessful - reset phone. Which I do, and it goes back to the same screen, Over, and Over, and OVER.
I managed to get two rom on it (8.0.6 global) and (8.0.7 china) but both have broken / no google play services.
Now I have this beautiful device, with no chance of unlocking the boot loader (I think) and no chance of putting a custom rom AND no working play store. Although it isnt a paper weight just yet... I'm about to say thats what i'm going to do with it soon.
Any help on getting a custom rom, the latest MIUI, or just working play services is greatly appreciated .

You mean put the phone in EDL then use fastboot rom via miflash? if so then yes. I've tried using multiple versions of global, and then one version of cn. I also tried to put one version of cn on there, then do the recovery update for developer mode, unfortunately that doesnt work either.
Question - is there a version of someones premade rom anywhere thats flashable via miflash?
Thanks,
Zack

I mean to say flash MIUI Rom selecting clean all option which is located at the bottom on Mi Flash tool. If not than try it once and see.
I have tried that too unfortunately
Looks like on the same road, tough i managed yo install 8.0.x global version.my main driver was trying to be able to edit build.prop toenable 4g.
I nerve success installing 8.1.1 version in my unlocked bootloader.
Any good news on installing 8.1.1 vwrsion unofficially?
Hi,
My favourite phone is the Xiaomi Redmi note 3 Pro SE with Lineage OS 13 (Yes marshmallow).
I got a new one that was in endless bootloop and I planned to get it working.
I don't know if the bootloader has been unlocked and how (last time I checked it was written locked), if a custom ROM as been flashed or anything that could been done on it before I get it.
After many tries I first succeed to install LineageOs 13 on it, what I remember:
I go to fastboot mode
I go to edl mode
I flashed it with an old MiFlash 2016.04.01.0 64 bit with an old official ROM : kate_global_images_6.9.29_20160805.0000.29_6.0_global_9aa2d85137 with recovery.img replaced by an old ZXC-TWRP 3.0.2-X. (This is the way to get a recovery with no need to unlock bootloader)
I started it directly to TWRP recovery mode (to be sure TWRP will stay it I guess?) changed the language and checked OTA checkbox in parameters
I started this old official ROM once (to get the full storage capacity)
I discovered it was a 16GB ROM / 2GB RAM version instead a 32GBROM / 3GB RAM I previously knowed
I restarted to TWRP recovery mode
I wiped david/cache
I flashed the last knowed LineageOS 13 for this phone: https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...ageos-13-0-t3533744/post83687823#post83687823
I wiped david/cache
I flashed the last radeon kerned on it
I wiped david/cache
I restarted it to LineageOS 13
I restarted to TWRP recovery mode, changed the language and checked OTA checkbox in parameters
I flashed magisk (sytemless)
I wiped david/cache
I restarted it to LineageOS 13
I could use it install a lot of things, was happy with it
Before succeeding I tried a lot of combinations of official ROM/TWRP/MiFlash versions and this couple was the only one working.
Other MiFlash versions don't detect the phone in edl mode
But 2 weeks later, just after installing a new app, the phone sudently reboots and I got stuck in bootloop again...
I could go to recovery one time, I selected reboot system, now I can't go to recovery anymore
I still can go to fastboot mode and edl mode, and I can flash a ROM, but whatever I flash I can't go away from bootloop.
What could the new bootloop come from?
Is my installation sequence good?
Why only this combination of official ROM/TWRP/MiFlash versions was working?
Why can't I start a ROM anymore after a new flash?
Why can't I go to the recovery anymore after a new flash?
How to check if the emmc memory is defective (I got no error while flashing)?
Thanks for reading, hope someone still cares on this old great phone
Sorry for my bad English
No clue what the problem may be. What app did you install? You could always try to go back to stock if you haven't already. Basically wipe phone completely and flash stock through mi flash.

Thanks for your answer.
The last app before bootloop was a sms/mms backup app on google store I get through Aurora.
I tried to flash the stock ROM (old one) kate_global_images_6.9.29_20160805.0000.29_6.0_glo bal_9aa2d85137 but it doesn't start, always bootloop.
I have no option to wipe on the only miflash version that detect my phone in edl : the 2016.04.01.0 64 bit version. so I choose flash all data/storage include, but still bootloop.
Why are you using such a old rom? Use latest miflash and latest global. On the bottom right of miflash you should have something like clean and lock. Just note that if you're unofficially unlocked you'll need to apply for unlock or unlock unofficially again.

Other Miflash version don't detect my phone when it is in edl mode
I could start other stock rom, I know tried this ones:
kate_global_images_7.6.8_20170608.0000.00_6.0_global_2040bd5a39
kate_global_images_8.12.13_20181213.0000.00_6.0_global_304fc0692b
But I couldn't flash my LineageOS 13 + recovery with those.
I tried so much combinations TWRP/Stock rom, I don't remember what I tested.
I just know the MiFlash 2016.04.01.0 64 bit with an old official ROM : kate_global_images_6.9.29_20160805.0000.29_6.0_glo bal_9aa2d85137 with recovery.img replaced by an old ZXC-TWRP 3.0.2-X. was the only one combination that worked for me for installing LineageOS 13 + recovery working
Now, every time I try to flash something (whatever it is) it goes to bootloop...
Only fastboot and edl mode are working
If you have other links / combinations I would be happy to try

This is a little bit to late to the party but the latest both dev rom and global works for me with the latest me miflash. No problems what so ever. Seems like you're facing a hardware issue.

Hi,
No, not too late my phone is still waiting, so thanks for your answer
Could you tell me witch version of rom / tool did you use?
I will try on a other windows computer to be sure there is no conflict with old tools I installed before.
If it works I will flash CM13 (marshmallow), I thought I should not use a too recent dev/global ROM before flashing CM13, but I don't remember were I read this. Is this true?

I'm not home this weekend so I can't say for sure. gismoZ recommends using the 8.0.2 firmware or something like that can't remember, but the latest works just fine on my kate. The latest miflash is from 20200314 and just get the latest global rom and try to flash it.
I tried with an other windows computer, I successfully used last MiFlash version
But now, whatever I flash, ROM version or recovery version, it stay in bootloop when I power it.
I expect the eMMC memory to be faulty but why doesn't I have any error while flashing?
How to be sure this comes from the eMMC chip?
Some people have successfully changed it on the mediatek version of the phone:
https://fr-fr.facebook.com/16816505...c-kmvtu-done/1821360108117225/?_fb_noscript=1
https://translate.google.com/transl.../03/service-hp-xiaomi-redmi-mi-note-mati.html
If I go on this solution I have some questions before:
Must the eMMC chip be programmed before soldering it?
If not, can I program it with MiFlash once soldered?
If not, have I to use some special touch/contact on the mainboard to program it?
How to be sure of the chip model to buy?
Will the chip come already balled? Or have I to ball it before soldering it on mainboard?
Could I buy a 32GB chip instead 16GB original one?
Something else to test before going on this crazy last chance solution?
I bought a EDL flash cable, but I think I don't need it on this phone, I alway success to go to EDL mode from fastboot mode with a small batch script.
Hello ,
Any chance I could get an answer anymore or is my problem too specific maybe?
