Hi all and sorry for my bad english in first!!
i live in italy and i've buyed(but still not recieved) one oneplus 9r from china whit oxygenos rom on board..
When it comes i want to root & debloat it, but i've some queustion cause in last year i've used only device with custom rom!.
first of all i wan't to root the phone, but preserve the possibility to update the OS with ota. if i understand right it's possible with magisk, can please someone tell me the correct step to make?
after root i vant to uninstall not necessary app for my utilization (facebook/instagram/netflix, red cable and oneplus account, google app, gdrive, google photo and most of BigG apps cause i'm using only gmail/yt/maps/ an store!).
the question is.... if i uninstall this app it will be re installed in future ota?
Thanks in advice!
Step1 : unlock bootloader, this will wipe the storage, then setup the device once again then enable usb debugging in developer options.
You can use this
Tool to make (tool all in one) your life easier : https://sourceforge.net/projects/tool-all-in-one/files/TOOL_ALL_IN_ONE_1.0.6.1.zip/download
you should select 8t as 9r is not supported officially
at the moment.
Step2: update the phone to latest version , right now it's 11.2.5.5
Step 3: download the same version of the oxygen is ota wether from xda, OnePlus official site , oxygen updater ( make sure it is full version).
Step4: on pc now extract only the payload.bin file in the input of the payload extracter ,
Now use the payload extracter ,
Run .exe and get boot.img .
payload_dumper_tool_by_ius.zip
drive.google.com
(MAKE SURE THE PHONE OS VERSION AND BOOT IMG VERSION IS SAME)
Step 5: install magisk manager on phone, now patch the boot.img that you extracted earlier. Copy this patched boot.img in platforms tool folder(I hope that u have installed the platform tools and adb & fastboot ).
Step 6: open terminal there in platform tools , use the tool all in one to boot your phone in fast boot mode,then flash patched boot.img using.
Fastboot devices
Fastboot flash boot_a patched.img
Fastboot flash boot_b patched.img
Bingo got rooted.
Step 7( optional) : now properly restart the phone by opening magisk , then install universal safety net fix, debloat modules in magisk.
You can use lucky patcher to debloat unnecessary things (which don't exist as it is oxygen os)
Now in future if your phone gets ota make sure you disable all magisk modules then download the full version of ota from oxygen updater & update it locally & do not restart.
go to magisk ,
flash magisk to inactive slot.
restart now,
REnable the modules. (Tip don't enable the lucky patcher module this will put you in bootloop)
enjoy the ota .

Do you have instructions to install TWRP?
I even tried to read the thread on the 8t forum, but I didn't understand it very well.
So, 1st of all make sure u are on oos , then simply boot in to bootloader then flash this ofox img file , using the command
fastboot flash recovery name.img then boot into recovery it will ask u your screen lock, then flash this ofox zip file .
this or any recovery are in beta phase , everything works but not 100/100 times.
unzip this and flash the img cuz the img could not be uploaded
this will only work on oos not on any custom rom, uwill not require to format data
& trust me i am not a hacker

Is Orange Fox easy to use as TWRP?
Just flash via fastboot? Because I want to keep magisk/root.

I've already downloaded the files, but I haven't tested them yet.
I'll leave it for the weekend, if there's a problem I can solve it with peace of mind.
Sir have you tried changing the font of your 9R?
I've been looking on the magisk forums or some app but I haven't had success.
Yeah I actually use the Einstein font the font manager by androidacy seems to work for me.

I tried this module too, only with Komika font, my favorite.
What version of the module do you use? I tried with the last one (5.5.6) and the font doesn't seem to have been applied.
I'm on OOS 11.2.7.7.
Same version

I flashed the img file and it booted to OrangeFox but I cannot press anything as the screen does not react. What is the solution for it?
It's is compatible with oos 11
Not with oos 12, any custom roms

I was on OOS 11. The 11.2.8.8.LE28DA.
Flashed it, boot up but cannot press anything. How can I go back to the original boot?
U can unzip the payload.bin and extract the recovery file and flash it in the bootloader and everything goes normal

Thanks I got back to the original boot, but now how can I root with Magisk?
@Rajveer chauhan
Hello sr
Have you updated your 9r for A12 ? If yes, how did you do it? Would it be possible to go from A11 (11.2.8.8) to A12 (C.33)?

Hi,
I'm a happy new owner of the redmi note 4 and I've already unlocked the bootloader.
I would like to use google camera, and eventually adblock.
I've seen there are various way to
- install bootloaders (and it seems there are also various boatloaders)
- root the phone
- enable camera2 api, with and without root
- ...
Actually I like to keep the stock rom and the phone as vanilla as possible, as I've read there are redundant issue with custom rom. I also do like the idea of being able to update the phone "normally", which seems to be what you call OTA update . Also, I've seen that some app may not work if some verification fails ?
So basically the question could you explain me a bit the broad picture and what would you recommend ?
Thank's
PS : sorry I'm not super acurate, I rooted my LG G2 years ago and things seems to have evolved a lot since then.

So, you want root and GCam working on your MIUI without breaking OTA updates, is that right?
• Unlock bootloader, flash RedWolf recovery then through Redwolf recovery flash LazyFlasher.
• In Redwolf enable OTA survival.
• Flash Magisk through recovery for root.
• For GCam to work, you need to enable Camera2API in your build.prop. This can be done through a simple Magisk module too. But I must warn you enabling Camera2API on MIUI might break some functionalities of your MIUI stock camera app.
I am using pixel experience 8.1 oreo rom in my redmi notr 4.and i have also install google canera mod.mgcmod5.i have done all the settings but ehen i am trying to take puctures its force closing and lagging..need solution..

If RedWolf succeeds OTA survival, then there is no need. But after OTA if RedWolf is replaced by stock recovery, then yes you'll have to flash everything once again. Refer RedWolf thread for more details on OTA survival.

Sounds right and great, thank's !
Two question.
- I've read somewhere that some custom recovery and/or root may cause some app to fail, notably banking app.
Well I used to use such app on my rooted G2 , but will it remain posible after folowing the process you suggest above ?
about redwolf, there is quite a lot of explainations in theses two links 1 and 2, however I can figure out how to install redwolf ?! what am I suppose to do with the .iso image available for download ? isn't there a step by step install guide somewhere ?
Thank's

Use Magisk for root and once Magisk is installed enable Magisk hide for the banking app, this will hide root from that particular app.
Installing a custom recovery like redwolf :
1. Unlock your phone's bootloader.
2. Download the recovery image file, rename it to "recovery.img" and place in a folder on your computer. Make sure you have working ADB and fastboot drivers installed on this computer.
3. Connect your phone in fastboot mode (Volume Down + Power button)
4. Open command prompt in the folder containing the downloaded recovery. (Shift + Mouse right click)
5. Type the below command into the command prompt
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot boot recovery.img
Once inside recovery flash ROM, Magisk, if ROM is MiUI flash lazyflasher too, or phone won't boot. If custom ROM ignore lazyflasher and flash GApps instead.
If recovery installation instructions confuse you there are infinite number of YouTube videos that will help you.

Thank's again , that's awesome!
Maybe a few more question
FIRST
at step 2) how do I make sure I have a working ADB and Fastboot drivers ?
As far as I understand, fastboot drivers should already be installed ; however I suspect ADB not to be installed.
Indeed, I've already unlocked the bootloader with this tutorial, and I can confirm the phone is unlocked from settings > more settings > developper options > Mi locking status.
So basically I've already installed MiUSBDrivers and ran miflashunlock. There are fastboot.exe, fastboot_unlock.exe and AdbWinApi.dll files in the miflash_unlock folder I downloaded and used to unlock, but I haven't used any of these later 3 files.
I have found this post to install ADB
SECOND
at step 4), the best would be to place the recovery image downladed from here into the folder containing ADB downloaded just above right ?
Then, go on with step 5)
THIRD
If everything went well, my phone is supposed to reboot in redwolf recovery, ok.
but whart do you mean by "Once inside recovery flash ROM" ?
Why am I suposed to flash a rom ?
To my understanding, I already have a rom, miui, and do not want to change for the moment.
Should I download the "Full Rom" from here, or the "Redmi Note 4 Qualcomm Latest Global Stable Version Fastboot File" rom from here ? If so, what souhld I do with the rom; where sould I place it, on the computer, on the phone ?
Or do I need to flash ROM only if I want to change/upgrade my rom ?
FOURTH
To flash Magisk and Lazyflasher.
I understood that redwolf recovery comes with Magisk, so I assume I'll only have to go to "install" tab of redwolf, and I'll find the Magisk file to flash.
Ok what about Lazyflasher ? is it also provided with redwolf ?
Or should I download it ? and if so where should I place the file ?
FIFTH (and last)
I assume once installed from recovery, Magisk will show himself as an app/icon on the "desktop", and I'll be able to selectively enable Magisk hide for the banking app.
Thank's again for your help.
Sorry if I have too many questions, I'm a little rusted, and prefer having a comprehensive picture of the porcess before jumping into it, and avoid one more post entitled helpppp pleeeeeese I bricked my phone

ADB/Fastboot Drivers
Looks like you don't have ADB/Fastboot installed system wide. Although it is completely fine to use adb/fastboot in a folder, installing it system wide is much more convenient because you can open a command window in any folder and execute ADB/Fastboot commands. [URL="https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979”]Here's the link[/URL] to download the system wide installer. Install it and REBOOT your PC.
Flashing RedWolf
Once drivers are installed and PC rebooted, connect phone in Fastboot mode and follow my previous instructions. Also now you can open command prompt in any folder and execute the commands since ADB/Fastboot is installed system wide.
Flashing ROM
Sorry if I confused you there in the previous post. If you wish to stick with your current MIUI ROM then you don't need to flash any ROM file.
Flashing Lazyflasher
You MUST flash lazyflasher since you want to stay with MIUI. If you install a custom recovery on MIUI without flashing lazyflasher, the phone will not boot and will be stuck at the MI logo. I've attached the file.
Flashing Magisk
Flash Magisk after lazyflasher. You may download the latest package from Magisk thread or use RedWolf's built in Magisk package as you said and update it later through the Magisk manager app. And yes, you can select which apps can be Magisk hidden.

Great to know that I should fisrt flash lazyflasher and then magisk.

Should I do everything up to and incliding flashing lazyflsher, rebot normally, and then reboot again in redwolf and flash magisk ?
of is this extra zealous ?

While it can all be flashed at one go, I suggest you to flash LF and once boot your device successfully and reboot to redwolf and flash Magisk afterwards.

Excellent !
so
- I did installed redwolf recovery - changed settings as advised here
- flashed lazyflasher
- reboot -> wokrs I'm back on miui
- reboot in redwolf and flashed magisk
- reboot into android, installed rootchek, I'm rooted
- hide magisk from magisk manager for my apps --> working
Everything works
Further questions :
- Am I suppose to clean cache at some stage ? I can still do it now ?
- Is there some recomended module for magisk ? (not sure what they are for)
- as for everything else, I've seen many options to enable camera2api. Which one would you recomend ? is "persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1" the only needed change or this treat rises something this
- is there a recomended version/release of google camera to use with miui9 global, latest update (not developper) (I've seen various reported issues depending on version/release)
- any other must/nice/interesting hacks to fully enjoy this phone ?
- any security recomendation ? (re-locking the bootloader ? instally some utilities... ?)
thanks
after that, I'll be done

Clean cache not required.
Magisk modules are MODs for your system but they are done without tampering your system. (Systemless MODs).
Try Dolby atmos ZTE Axon 7 audio MOD module, YouTube vanced module (100% Adfree, background play)..etc
Use Arnova's GCam.
Never ever relock bootloader with a custom recovery or custom ROM. Else irreversible brick.
I've repeated too much stuff that has been posted in the forum already, if you have any further doubts search the forum or use Google.
Flash through redwolf the attached file to enable camera2api. If you want to uninstall it later go to magisk manager and delete it.
Cheers.

Hi dude
I'm almost done but back to square 0, with blinking black screen at boot !
No crisis, I can still go to redwolf recovery, as well as fastboot.
How it happend ?
In magisk manager (on miui) I checked what modules were available in the download panel, and tried "Google Pixel 2 Experience" or something similar.
On reboot, the mi logo is displayed, then I have a black screen blinking on and off, without mi logo, just black, on and off
I thus wanted to unistal the mod with magisk module uninstaller, but the install fails and return that "magisk is not installed" and "magisk is required for this mod"
So I obviously couldn't try to uninstall the supposed failing module
I thus rebooted in redwold and installed magisk from redwolf (the included release), things went well
However, I still cant install magisk module uninstaller, getting the same error as above.
I took my chance and try to re-install magisk from the zip filed I downloaded, the install process was successfull, but I still can't install magisk mod uninstaller, and the black screen issue persist.
Lastly, I took my chance and try to re-install lazy flasher, the install process was successfull, but the black-screen issue persist.
To be honest, I'm a bit sctuck now.
What may be the right procedure to solve this problem ?
Am I screwed and do I have to reflash a whole rom ?
If so Should I do it from redwolf, and how ?
Or should I do it from the pc with fastboot, and how ?
Thanks for your directions
ps: i was interested by pixel 2 experience module as at it was written that it was compatible with mido and provides camera2api, which might have been a nice combo.
ps 2 : I also did installed dolby as you suggested, it worked but the demo crashed to app
ps 3 : I also did installed youtube vaccant, but I couldn't see any new app and my original youtube still had add and couldn't play in the back... not sure it reveals something on the effectiveness of magisk...

yes bootloder unlocked is required this is basic
u can do very little customisation like debloating with locked bootloader
Thanks I knew that bl unlock is required but since you didn't mentioned it here I thought you found a way out without unlocking bl. This patched boot.img is for 10.3.6.0 What if there is new update, then we will lost root.
i will try to provide patched boot img for future updates

If the flash install of the patched image fails, can we reinstall de rom with miflash? Or, is enough to reflash by fastboot command line the original fastboot rom image?

Keeping it short. This is a simple way to root your device. You will need a computer and a data cable for this.
Objectives :
Have root using Magisk
Be able to install OTA from the settings without bootloops
Avoid boot loop
Very important :
This will work with ANY Xiaomi phone, and should work with ANY ANDROID phone as well. The difference between phones would be in where you can get your boot image from.
Your phone has to have an unlocked bootloader
Your phone has to have stock recovery. TWRP WILL cause bootloop for root and/or OTA updates from system.
I like to have root with magisk and don't want to install TWRP because I want to be able to install OTA from system without boot loops. This guide will help you achieve this with ease.
Steps:
Download the ROM full zip file. This could be the ROM ALREADY installed on your phone or you are updating your phone to it. Here is a video of one way to get your ROM file.
https://youtu.be/KsxHial1v1U
Open the file and extract "boot.img" on your phone or Computer.
Move the boot.img file to your phone
Download and install the latest Magisk official manager app from here: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/manager-v7.4.0/MagiskManager-v7.4.0.apk
Open Magisk manager and click install then "select and patch a file" like in this video
https://youtu.be/USHcCMYlexM
Copy the Patched image from the download folder to your computer adb/fastboot folder
Reboot your phone into fastboot (press and hold power and vol down) and connect it to the computer
Flash that patches image file using fastboot
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
fastboot reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Open Magisk manager and complete the installation if needed. The app will prompt you for action.
Enjoy
Update May 2020
Hello again,
Sorry for being away for so long. Here are some of the things I have noticed people are confused with and need to make them clear:
This method works for ANY Android phone. As long as you have the Correct boot.img and can unlock the bootloader
MAKE SURE 100% you have the correct boot.img file for your CURRENT ROM
MAKE 100% SURE, the boot.img file you get from the FULL ROM zip file, not an OTA update zip file
Make sure you check the date and time of the "magisk_patched.img" file to make sure that is the one you made
Make sure you use the LATEST magisk manager
Make sure you open magisk after flashing the magisk_patched.img as boot image. Magisk manager will tell you if there is another step needed, just click yes and it will be done in seconds
Make sure to enable "Hide Magisk" to allow you to have your BANK apps working as well as security checks
If any app you use gives you an error "YOU ARE Rooted bla bla bla" Use magisk manager to hide the root for this specific app (in the settings)
That's all I can remember, good luck

No, bootloader has to be unlocked.
@Kiwironic followed your guide and worked very well, although I had to wipe data through the stock recovery to get the phone to boot, I believe that's just how newer Xiaomi phones work. I do have one question though, now that I'm rooted with stock recovery, would I be able to install OTA updates? I'm assuming I would of course lose root and have to redo the process from scratch if that's the case.

I had root on MIUI10 and updated the ROM to MIUI11 then did my root again the way mentioned and did NOT have to wipe. You can get OTA anyway, it will try the update first, it will fail, then it download and install a full ROM zip automatically. You have to wait for it to do that twice, that's all. The first boot after the update takes some time.
@Kiwironic First, thank you so your simple guide!
Can this cause bootloop on my device? If yes, can I simply flash the original boot.img to boot without any data loss?
Also another question: my device is rootless and bootloader unlocked, so my Google Pay doesn't work. When installing Magisk it goes back to work immediately or I have to do something to work?

If you flash the full rom, chances of bootloop is minimal. And should have stock experience except for being unlocked.
I got bootloop, using indian global V11.0.2.0.
After flashing patched boot, it gets bootloop recovery, only way is to wipe all data and reboot
After booting up and opeing magisk it shows a recommendation to install some ZIP
Accepting the recommendation results in bootloop,
Rejecting the recommendation and trying to Install > Direct Install results in bootloop as well

Do you have stock recovery or TWRP? Which version of Magisk are you using?
I have patched my boot stock image, installed full ROM, then flashed the patched boot image. Magisk did not show any recommendation installation.
There are a few guides online on how to deal with Magisk Bootloop without the need to wipe data.

TWRP 3.3.1-8, magisk 20.1
Patching boot image with magisk wasn't a problem. The Superuser itself works normally, module doesn't. The magisk manager suggested to download additional files for the magisk to be working properly.
I'm on MIUI 11.0.1 Global
Was TWRP the cause in the fist place?

On first installation MM asks to download what it needs e.g. to verify SafetyNet. Allow and there is no problem about. TWRP is generally not needed to install Magisk. Things are documented in Magisk guides

Yes, as the title suggests "without TWRP". The reason is, you cannot install OTA and magisk easily without using the stock recovery. Any attempt to update OTA or use any recovery script on the phone will result in a boot loop.
The solution to get out of the boot loop is simple. Actually a couple of solutions.
One, flash your stock recovery, or
Two, flash a full ROM that includes the stock recovery.
No need to wipe data
That's the only reason I made this post and the other about OTA on root. I don't like to use TWRP because I want OTA install without boot loop. At the same time I want root. Hence the solutions I provided

I've tried flashing magisk via recovery and didn't work, the same bootloop. Here's the thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-9t/how-to/guide-miui-11-v11-0-1-0-pfjmixm-rooted-t3997299
I thought this might be a working alternative.
Gotta try installing magisk with stock recovery then, and if it still didn't work, well, more research for me..

You have to understand the requirements :
- stock recovery
- install magisk manager app
- patch the boot image for your stock ROM (same version on your phone)
- flash that Patched boot image.
- reboot
- done, that's magisk installed
Before rooting, you'll need an unlocked bootloader. Check my previous guide here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/x3...ck-bootloader-realme-x3-t4136325/post83109505.
After unlocking, we can get started with rooting.
First, you'll want to install Magisk Manager. You can find the latest APK here: https://github.com/topjohnwu/magisk/releases.
Next, you'll need to download the latest OTA OZIP. There's a link at the end of the post for this.
While that's downloading, you'll also need to grab a copy of an OZIP extractor. Follow the link below, download the repository as a ZIP, and unzip it.
For this program to work, you'll need Python 3 installed. On Linux systems, it should already be installed. On Windows 10, you can install Python from the Store.
Open a terminal or CMD window and cd to where you extracted the OZIP extractor files.
Use pip to install the docopt module: "pip3 install docopt".
Once the OZIP has finished downloading, move it to the same folder as the extractor program.
Run the following command: "python3 ozipdecrypt.py NAME_OF_OZIP_FILE". This will take a while!
Once it's done extracting, there will be a ZIP file with the same name as the OZIP. We only need two files from here: boot.img and vbmeta.img.
Extract those two files to the same folder as the extractor program.
Copy the boot.img file to your device.
Open Magisk Manager and choose the "INSTALL" option next to the Magisk status. Tap "INSTALL" in the dialog that appears and then choose "Select and Patch a File."
Browse to where you copied your boot.img to and select it. Magisk will now patch it and create a file named magisk_patched.img in your Download folder. Copy magisk_patched.img back to your computer.
Reboot your phone into fastboot: "adb reboot bootloader". If you don't have ADB or fastboot installed (which you should, since you needed them for the previous guide), you can find the link in the bootloader unlocking guide.
Before you flash the patched boot image, you need to disable image verification, which is where the vbmeta.img comes in.
Run "fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img --disable-verity --disable-verification" (remember, you'll probably need to unplug and replug the device after hitting Enter). This will disable boot verification and allow the patched image to actually work.
Finally, run "fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img". This will flash the rooted boot image to your device.
Run "fastboot reboot" and let the phone boot back into the system. Check Magisk Manager and you should now be rooted!
Troubleshooting:
If you get an error that the boot image was "destroyed," don't worry. You'll just need to flash the stock boot.img and try again. Unplug your phone from your computer and wait for it to turn off. Once the screen is black, hold down VOL-DWN and PWR to enter fastboot mode. You can then run "fastboot flash boot boot.img" (where boot.img is the stock image) to restore. Reboot, then try the vbmeta and patched image flashing again.
You can get the OTA OZIPs from Realme EU's site: https://www.realme.com/eu/support/software-update.
You can get an OZIP extractor from here: https://github.com/bkerler/oppo_ozip_decrypt. (NOTE: you'll need to install the "docopt" Python module.)
OZIPs contain a boot.img, which you can extract and patch with Magisk for root. If someone else has an idea for patching Magisk into the boot.img, this is where to start.
Here's my patched boot.img for A.32. I don't recommend using this on other versions: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=315334
Could you share your patched boot.img for the latest OS version? And could you check if the aux magisk module from X2 pro works to activate all aux cameras in Gcam? Thanks

It's pretty simple to patch it yourself. Download the OZIP, use the Python tool to unencrypt it, take the boot.img file out of the created ZIP, copy it to your device, and then patch with with Magisk Manager.

ota update after root
Someone have experiencing ota update failed on rooted device with this procedure? I m on RMX2081EU_11.A.40 but ota update to RMX2081EU_11.A.42 fails. how to update now?
Good afternoon. I want to get a root for my X3 super zoom, but I literally do not understand all the manipulations so that your description is attached with an image (screenshots). I think it will be useful for everyone who can't.
Anyone have working patched boot.img for a46?? I'm trying and always boot destroyed. Magisk 21.4
It's really weird on official en site there is a42 soft from September but on pl site there is a46 from December.
VERY IMPORTANT:
Please make sure your boot.img version matches the ROM version . that's mean if you update your device then you have to use patch boot.img from new recovery rom.never use the old one. If they mismatch you might brick your phone and MediaTek phones are HELL to unbrick.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
Yes you can root your phone without data loss. You do not need to you type so much command line. You have to patch the stock boot image file with magisk manager. Then you have to download a a blank vbmeta.img file.(link in this post)
Then run this command
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot flash boot patch-boot.img
%%replace patch-boot as your file name...
I guarantee you no data loss.
Remember one thing...
You must patch the correct boot image of your rom... If you to flash a wrong version of bhoot image then you have some problem.
Suppose you update miui global 11.0.5.0 from 11.0.4.0 and you use 11.0.4.0 version patch boot image file....
Then your device boot up but you can not play any music .....i do this dump thing.....but do not worry just flash currect patch boot image and your problem is gone...

You must patch the correct boot image of your rom... If you to flash a wrong version of bhoot image then you have some problem.
Suppose you update miui global 11.0.5.0 from 11.0.4.0 and you use 11.0.4.0 version patch boot image file....
Then your device boot up but you can not play any music .....i do this dump thing.....but do not worry just flash currect patch boot image and your problem is gone...

Hey @Shas45558, I can't root MIUI V11.0.7.0.Q having tried these steps on a friend's phone yesterday. It worked on my phone on V11.0.50.Q but I also installed that update though my bootloader is still locked as you may know

That's exactly what I did. Downloaded the full recovery rom and extracted it. Patched the boot.img inside images folder with Magisk canary and after copied it to my PC and flashed it via fastboot. I then flashed the vbmeta after. Do you mind sharing with me your patched boot image for V.11.0.7Q? Maybe I'll have luck with that otherwise I did everything right. Its really strange.

Thanks. I've been using Magisk Manager beta/canary and it seems it does not patch the boot image properly. You are the best.

Welcome. Redmi 9 and redmi note 9 are are based on same chipset mt6768....
And so the process help you. I think it is the same to root any device running on Android 10.
And vbmeta.img which I provide upper post, is a universal vbmeta.img. you can use it to flash any Android device which has vbmeta partition because this vbmeta.img is a dummy file or you can call it as a blank file...

My issues was patching using the canary version of Magisk Manager which isn't stable enough and was probably not patching the boot image properly as opposed to Magisk Manager 7.5.1 which is the stable version. Nice explanation on the vbmeta.img file.
VERY IMPORTANT:
Please make sure your ROM version matches the ROM version of those patched boot image and files. If they mismatch you might brick your phone and MediaTek phones are HELL to unbrick.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Thanks for your effort
I understand you are trying to help and that you put a note at the end of your post. But please make it clear at the BEGINING, that this method is valid for this specific ROM Version "xx.x.xx.x.x"
I guess this still doesn't unlock the bootloader, and what about system updates?

I have an issue. I cannot install any custom recovery on Redmi 9, no matter how much I try (Twrp or PBRP). Every time the phone reboots directly. There is anyone that can help me?

Download pbrp from official website.then extract it and you will get a .img file.flash it via fastboot mood and the cmd is
fastboot flash recovery pbrp.img
*Change pbrb.img according to your file name.
One big question..did you unlock your bootloader and root your device?
Thank you very much! I succeeded according to your advice!
