Change default Android market - Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers

Hi.
How set Google play as default market instead mi store without root?
I installed play store and I don't like root my phone.
Tnx

You can't while the MI store is in there.
Either root and freeze or install a custom rom.
Hopefully now a developer rom is out a global one will follow which will be without Chinese bloat.

Can I root phone and remove mi store then unroot phone?
Is there a way to unroot the phone?

Mot sure on unroot. But you cannot remove it only freeze it. It's baked into miui so if you remove the phone will brick itself. So definitely not advised.

Haven't done it myself so CA not help too much.
Check the miui website forums and also the xiaomi forums on their site.
They seem to be more active than here.

Most super user tools can unroot but the best by far is SuperSU. It has the option to do a full unroot and it would work for you I think.
Rooting is quite a chore really. I did it by installing kingroot app and then using terminal emulator to install SuperSU app and binaries. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euK91peMIEI instructions are on this video. I do suggest kingroot app to the one in the video links.

In video miui ROM of phone was global, but until now global ROM not available in official site!!!
http://en.miui.com/download-298.html

Yes, that ROM is not official. But this process works on the official ROM too. But I had no success on any ROM higher than 7.1.1. There is an official ROM bearing that version number, I'm running on it now. I don't know if you can get an ota update while rooted, I haven't tried it. Also I'm not sure of the outcome of ota updating your phone after unrooting, though I have read that many users have done it and had no complaints. I'm not going to update my ROM because I'm interested in keeping root. But you could try it. SuperSU even has a possibility to stay intact through an ota update. But I've never tried it.

[Q] Rooting and Unrooting Huawei U8180 Gaga

Hello guys. I have a Huawei U8180 (Gaga) mobile phone. I don't know how to root it. Can i root it with "Super one click"? After that, can i unroot my mobile(Huawei Gaga) if i wanted to do? (Please explain how if my mobile can unroot)
You can try Super One Click to root it or have a go at the root methods for other Huawei devices like this one: here
You can unroot with Super One Click if that is how you managed to root it, otherwise you have to reinstall the original ROM.

I found that SuperOneClick didn't work on an updated (newer) stock ROM, but it worked fine when I restored an older stock ROM.

[Q] Running a Unroot required app on rooted device

Hi
I recently moved and had the oppertunity to view my TV-channels on my phone. However it is required to have a device who is not rooted, and I don't really want to unroot just to view tv on my phone.
Does anyone know of a small program, script etc. which can tell the app that the phone is unrooted, even though it is rooted?
My phone is a Samsung Galaxy Nexus, running stock unlocked and unrooted JB yakju 4.2.2.
Thanks in advance!
I found out that I can temporarely disable root in the SuperSU app, but it would be nice to have something that permantly knew that this app should be runned without root.

@AAbounegm
Temp unroot is available in Superuser 3.1.x (this may vary because Superuser versions vary from device to device)
@Juhler @rosentorp
Also you can use RootCloak Xposed Module to hide root only only specific apps.
The advantage is you can use root with other apps and only hide root from tv app.
Get it here (Android ICS and +)

You may be right. I have SuperUser built-in with CM, and I don't have this features. In fact, I don't have many of features and I can't even know what version I have. :good:

Off course you can use in this case your own CDA.

Well, it's clearly not necessary to change your CDA if you've already received the OTA.

Alright. I don't care if i lose stuff. I got it all "up in the cloud", so no biggie.
Alright, all i have left is to update to 257 again, but i only have 33% battery left and it's not possible to do it unless i have at least 50%. Just typical Everything else went smooth, and i didn't have any issues
Edit: I'm done updating, and i got root
Edit 2: Hah! I tried using Sony's own backup app before downgrading and everything, feeling that the backup wouldn't be there after the full wipe, but it is indeed there and i have some game saves and stuff there! Awesome!
Germany is using C6833. Is it compatible with C6802?
Noob question: can I flash the C6833 FTF ver 532 on my C6802? I can not find the FTF for 532 Vietnam version, the 510 VN got bootloop and the Generic TW have many Chinese software that I don't like

I don't know, I've C6833. Be adventurous When it's not working correctly you can always flash back. In the generic TW version you can always delete the chinese software, one of the pros of root

Its called OTA root keeper for a reason...
thanks for posting these steps in a simple straighforward way! i did them with no issue whatsoever, and have root on .257. i have a 6802 and used the .532 for 6802 from Hamdogg's thread, and i didn't even have to mess with CDA/build.prop... the OTA was already there, and installed without issue.
one question: do i need the SuperSU from the market, as described in the Vroot thread, or did i not need to download that, since there is already a Superuser installed to /system/app?

You don't need SuperSU, but it's a trusted app that works great. The chinese root app? Not so much.

SuperSu has a feature to remove previous installations from other superuser apps. This works great, and also fixes the binary.

Root & Unroot without flashing.

Hi
This is about the safest way in my opinion to root the grand 2, and unrooting in case of upcoming updates, without the need to flash or use Odin.
All that you need is to use the towelroot.
And after that download the SuperSU app, you can find it in the Play market.
And if you want to remove the root just go to the SuperSU app and there is a full unroot option in its settings.
And i had tried it and it worked.

This is the correct process of rooting the your Huawei Y541-U02
1) Go tho Phone Settings.
2) Under Phone Settings go to Security option.
3) Under "Security" option unchecked the following Unknown Sources and Verify Apps.
4) Install the Rooting app. In my phone i used Kingroot app to root my phone. any rooting apps will do, not just kingroot..
5) Start the rooting app and start the rooting process.
6) Phone will be successfully rooted.
Note: Verify Apps option under security will deny the owner of the phone to install rooting apps...
Enjoy the benefits with rooted phone.....
