Pre-Requirements:
Supported for: Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro Max (Phoenixin) Indian variant only. The device should be running on stock ROM to apply the update. though the guide is universal for all Redmi Note 9 Pro Max phones but the links are for Indian variant only. DO NOT use on different ROM,, For other Varients use this guide but with specific ROM for your device variant.
Requires: A PC/Laptop and a USB cable. (use only the cable that came in box)
Charge: Keep your device charged more than 50%.
Steps :
1. Download MIUI V11.0.4.0.QJXINXM – Recovery ROM | OTA ROM (official link from xiaomi website for Indian varienat)
2. Mi Flash Tool – Download and Install it on your PC (required to unlock bootloader, which we will not discuss here)
3. Download ADB and Fastboot Tools on your computer
4. Download Xiaomi USB Drivers and install it on the PC
5. update or install the latest MIUI version on your Redmi Note 9 Pro Max (Phoenixin) successfully. Feel free to ask in the comments below for any queries. Current version at time of post is V11.0.4.0.QJXINXM (link above). Make sure the model of your phone and the installed firmware EXACTLY match what you're downloading. If they don't, it may not work correctly.
6. Install Magisk Manager (.apk) on your phone from the official Magisk repository.
7. Extract boot.img (about 132MB) from the official ROM zip you downloaded and transfer it to the phone. Click "install" in Magisk Manager and point it to boot.img. This should result in a patched magisk_patched.img (about 16MB - padding was removed), transfer this file to your computer. Ideally to the Mi Unlock folder where fastboot.exe is located.
8. Reboot your phone to fastboot recovery mode. Open a command prompt in the folder of the Mi Unlock tool and run
Code:
Code:
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
This flashes the patched Magisk-enabled bootloader to your phone.
9. Reboot the phone and that's it! Verify root status in the Magisk Manager app.

I think you'll still get OTA update but once you update the phone will loose root. So Don't worry about OTA update because you can always download the latest firmware posted on Xiaomi website. Root, install Xposed. Install xposed modules like Gravitybox, MiUi 8 Tweaks, Boot manager and you'll never think again of OTA because so much of customizations and performance improvements you can do on your own with these modules.
PS: Not all OTAs are good. Don't depend much on OTAs because some device manufacturers push OTA to make your device work bad and so you'll buy new phone.
Can any user of Redmi Note 9 Pro Max confirm that you have rooted successfully? please
anyone successfully unlocked redmi note 9 pro max bootloader,currently the official tool is showing to wait 360hours,any other ways to unlock

Hi!
I just got my redmi note 2 and found the device full of chinese apps and the battery life was not what I expected.So I want to flash a new rom and a custom recovery.So I tried to flash TWRP 2.5.7 and I Followed these steps:
downloaded TWRP 2.5.7 and renamed it update.zip
Saved it to Internal Memory
Used the updater app, phone automatically went to the recovery mode
started flashing TWRP
but when The process reached 99% a error message read"update.zip signature verification failed"
I did a full wipe and did it all over again.Same error.also tried MI PC suite but it would'nt let me create a backup hence no flashing.So I am at my wits end here folks.Please help!!!!! And being new to MIUI doesn't help either
I am currently running on MIUI 7.0 stable (7.0.8.0)
SOS SOS!!!!!
You can't flash an unsigned zip file with updater/mi recovery.
MiPCSuite can't create Redmi Note 2 backups, it's a bug.
For install twrp recovery install an official developer rom (you can find it on http://en.miui.com). Now you have root access going into Security / Permissions / Root Permissions.
Install flashify, open it. It will say you haven't got root. Go in into Security / Permissions / Root Permissions and enable it.
Now flash the recovery.img file of TWRP with flashify as a Recovery image.

Thank You sir.I will definitely try this. I will let you know if this worked for me.
Also, can the official developer rom be flashed by the updater app? Or some other methods are required?

Hey guys.
I have a redmi 5 currently with miui 9.6.3.0 global and locked bootloader, I'm trying to update to miui 10 8.9.6 via updater (as I see, it can be done without unlocking the device), but i'm constantly having the same error as soon as I try to select the file on the updater ("it's not allowed to upgrade to unofficial rom package"). Is there anything I can do to update to miui 10?
Steps I did:
- Downloaded the rom via this thread (version 8.9.6)
- Put the rom in the internal storage of the phone (in the "downloaded_rom" folder)
- Selected on the updater app... got the error everytime.
Thanks.
Same for me. I think you'll have to wait for bootloader unlock to flash beta on rosy.
Wait for another update bro
No need to unlock bootloader. It's very simple
Just follow the instructions of this video

& boom, you are succeeded!!!
My Redmi 5 Plus is already unlocked and it gives me the same error..
I rooted redmi note 4 using super su, with twrp. Installed android 8.1 lineage OS with treble twrp recovery. I want to unroot and flash my phone to original MIUI....now my phone is not searchable in MI flashing tool, I have proper driver, fash file, pc suit, everything but I dont know why it not searchable in fastboot mode. kindly help please.
flash fastboot rom. also why did you use supersu ?
My Redmi 6a is still android 8 (8.1.0 O11019) and the MIUI version is MIUI Global 10.3.6 | Stable. So I found this thread where you can download the update manually but when I tried doing it, my device says
Can't verify Update
Coudn't verify. Looks like the ROM's secure-patch version is lower than the current version

Is there a way that I can update my phone to android 9?
Unlock bootloader, install twrp, then flash the recovery file with twrp. Keep in mind, don't flash the oreo twrp after you've successfully flashed miui pie, if you do you'll hard brick your phone. The pie twrp can be found in 4 p d a or in the telegram group or just google it.
Or just wait until xiaomi releases the fastboot file so you can flash it with a pc.

Hi.
Latest version zip 10.4.3.0 Is good and without erros with install and succefully installed. No unlocked bootloaderu and no root.
Here https://mifirm.net/model/cactus.ttt#zip-mif is global stable zip to download.
I have installed LOS 14.1 official three years ago and everything worked fine. Last year I got other phone (because of battery bug) and haven't used my RN3Pro since then.
Now I booted into Android and noticed that Gapps stopped working. I can't use PlayStore and do any updates.
So I decided to make a clean install of LOS14.1 with new Gapps, but when I try to boot into recovery, I stuck on fastboot screen.
Check if the ROM boots without GApps or not.
BTW e/foundation is still releasing LOS 14.1 builds with latest security patches. Last build was from June 2021. MicroG comes built-in which may or may not be desirable.
