Hi guys,
I'm from India, and I have the Redmi Note 3 Snapdragon 650 variant. I have successfully unlocked my bootloader via the official process using MiFlashUnlock tool. I am on MIUI Global Stable 7.3.2.0.
Now that I have unlocked my bootloader, I want to root my device, and I had a few questions.
1. What's the method of rooting. I read that I need to install TWRP. A link to the latest updated guide would be much appreciated.
2. After rooting, will I be able to get proper regular updates? If yes, will it unroot my device after the update? If yes, then what do I do?
All in all, I am looking to root my RN3 and keep getting proper OTA updates and still retain my root access.
Any help in this regards would be highly appreciated.
Thanx a lot in advance. Desperately waiting for a reply
Edit: The main reason for creating this thread is coz there is a lot of confusion right now as there are various methods to root RN3 and then there is a different way to do it if you've unlocked your bootloader UNOFFICIALLY.
With all this chaos, I just wanna know what's the correct procedure for me
+1 good question, i also want to know, see complete guide for ppl who unlocked officially ONLY.
You can receive OTA's, and you can download them, but you can't install them.
Also you should flash the official TWRP if you officially unlocked the bootloader. Be sure to download the universal boot image patches from the safe TWRP thread and also you can root from TWRP. When you open TWRP, it'll ask you if oyu want to root.
Use this recovery : http://en.miui.com/thread-282773-1-1.html , then you dont need flash modified boot.img everytime you flash miui roms.
After you flash OTA updates , your root access will be gone, so you need root again from twrp.

Thanx a lot for the replies guys.
Well, I wanna learn everything that's related to Redmi Note 3 flashing, rooting, etc.
Like, to install TWRP, why do we need to flash a modified boot.img file? Is this also required if we have UNLOCKED OFFICIALLY?
Also, @justinxfan @ddarshan - why won't it install the OTA? Nonetheless, after downloading that OTA zip, we can install the OTA zip using TWRP without losing any data, right? And then, of course, as you said, we can again gain root access via TWRP right?
By the way, for now, I am not interested in any roms. Am very happy with the current MIUI Global Stable ROM. Just want root access but also wanna learn
It will be awesome if someone can list the differences and what to do after official and unofficial unlocking methods. Few more questions, does flashing any miui rom via twrp after official method will relock the bootloader or it can be done only by edl method? Also, flashing by edl method will remove twrp right?
Seriously guys, please help us out
if u unlock bootloader unofficially ,it will void your warranty but official unlock will not.

+1 for cofface's TWRP. I'm on officially unlocked and rooting works by flashing the latest SuperSU.zip through TWRP. I am not sure if Global Stable even allows root though, since I'm on Global Dev. I can also recommend going to xiaomi.eu ROM when you are unlocked. It's rootable and based on the latest version of MIUI without the chinese bloat. A good filler until a stable version of CM13 is released.
I apologize if I ask something very basic, but I have not used MIUI for a long time ... If I install a custom MIUI 10 ROM like Globe ROM, Epic Rom or EU, will I be able to return without problems to AOSP ROMS? I read that xiaomi blocked the rollbacks ... For root, Magisk 17? Xposed works fine?
Last question, which one of those ROMS do you recommend?
Thank you very much.
For roll-back, AFAIK, there is not arb implemented in Redmi note 4,so yes you can go back to aosp's and can root via magisk also.
Search anti-roll back nd follow the procedure
Searching since yesterday and proceeding ahead is making me confused..
Few Procedures I understood some were confusing, here are my questions.
My Phone details: Check attached hardware details, image format too please.
Unlocked bootloader, yesterday, THANK YOU VERY MUCH TO ALL XDA USERS.
1. Should i proceed with twrp + root 1 click, its way to easy and no confusions here.
.2. Should i proceed with magisk, Since on stock rom and just unlocked bootloader, unsure how to proceed here..
Please guide on best option, after doing this bit work, I have many purchased apps (thanks to XDA TEAM and all contributors) which I shall try on phone..
If satisfied, or wanna try custom ROMs, I will make another question..
Thanks and appreciate the volutary hard work of this great community.
Regards,
Flash Twrp then Flash A Custom rom assuming you've unlocked bootloader to flash a custom rom then gapps then flash magisk
Here are some suggestions
Miui Pro Gsi Oreo
Aex Pie/Oreo
Bootleggers Pie
Los Extended Oreo
Pixel Experience Pie/Oreo
I only need to flash twrp (but all options comes with supersu) how to flash same, just link to topic please.

Hi,
I used custom roms but i decided to go back to stock miui, i just like it.
Flashed back the global stable rom, i had twrp, and i installed magisk.
It don't boot. Keep rebooting. I tried the lazy flasher too, maybe magisk dont work anymore for this job.
No luck with that too.
Did the miui changed? i used miui9 without any problem with twrp i just installed magisk and it booted without a problem.
Don't tknow what to do now, can somebody help me?
I mean 4 in the title sorry
I have 7 too, but i use xioami.eu there, but the 4 xiaomi.eu dropped the support
Hey guys,
I mangaged to install a custom ROM on my 9s Note (Curtana). Now I want to install the MIUI stock camera (48mp) module because the one which comes with the rom is quite poor on options. I have many confusions about the next steps and hope to find some help. I posted my questions on the thread of the ROM but unfortunatly did not get any response.
My questions are:
Is it correct that I need now to change the stock recovery to a custom one, for example TWRP in order to install custom addons?
Then I need to install Magisk which is used to install this custom ´addons´?
If this both are installed, will I be a SU automatically?
Will my banking apps still work or stuff like Spotify, WhatsApp? It does now on the custom rom which is amazing.
Is it possible to backup the original recovery partition? Then at any point in the future go back to it?
Can I install the stock MIUI ROM 11 or 12 with a custom recovery?
I would be so thankful if somebody could help me!
Cheers,
Cho
1) if you have installed a custom ROM, chances are you did it with a custom recovery.
2) some addons require root privileges, which can be had with magisk
3)yes, having magisk installed successfully means yiu will have rot privileges
4) banking apps, google own safety net checks and magisk are in a constant race of outpacing each other, magisk seems to be loosing now with tighter controls in newer android version. so dont expect your banking apps to work with magisk anymore.
5) it is probable on some devices with mature development not sure with this
6) not in its stock form, usually people build alternate builds of stock ROM that can be flashed with custom recoveries.
