Root without breaking OTA [SD] - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I have a Redmi Note 3 Snapdragon version. I just want to root it.
My question is: what is the easiest way to root and keep OTA updates functioning? (If possible)
I thought about the Dev rom, but it would havw the same features as in the China rom, i.e added crap. How would I backup, flash and remove crap in that case?
Edit: is there any way to root Global Stable with locked bootloader without breaking OTAs?
Thanks!

Do you have 2 options
1.Kingroot version:NewKingrootV4.85_C139_B255_en_release_2016_03_29_105203.(this is for Android) and you can download the exe file for windows.I have installed apk file on my Kenzo phone and worked without any issue.The earlier version was 4.82.C137(NewKingrootV4.82_C137_B248_en_release_2016_03_06_105203.) which didn't worked.Be sure about correct version,and download the file from official site adress to avoid any potential malware/virus/crap.If not working on the phone,you must try the windows version ;install it on pc and follow instructions.The correct adress :kingroot.net
2.Kingoroot-another 1 click root apk.I haven't tried but this app have cnet recommendation even you can download it from cnet servers.The correct adress is:kingoapp.com

King root still hasn't found the root yet.... Try my method.. I know it's a bit time consuming but worth it to remove the bloatware .

Yeah it's possible.. Give the thread a try..
U should have some basic knowledge on this matter or it will take more time to understand the procedure. If u have any questions feel free to PM me I'll guide u through the procedure

first this is not the place where you get fully miui support,en.miui.com,. you need to unlock bootloader to root the phone,.what ever you use like kingroot, this that....all fails. even you root your mi phone you get ota updates...only thing is after ota you need to root again. after rooting install custom twrp 3 recovery.so you can flash supersu root binary easily everytime you update.

I am sorry for the noobie question...will Root destroy my TA partition? I want to keep it intact but only want to have root so i can install Titanium Backup..i don't need custom recovery (for now at least)...
Also after I rooted, can i still update the OS using OTA?

as @mingkee said rooting your phone won't hurt your TA partition. you can even make a backup from TA partition after rooting your ZU. You will loose your TA partition only if you are going to unlock your bootloader. you don't have to do that for rooting. If you like to use a custom kernel (tap to wake, battery performance, ...) you have to unlock your bootloader but be sure to backup your TA partition first
Which version of kingroot did you guys use.
I used 4.1.0
It just goes to 70% for me and says root failed...
Worked for me too

Just deinstall su, reboot, install kingroot 4.1.x and root again. Then the script should work.

xiaomi eu rom showing me an error

i am getting this error in this eu rom and i did Every possible thing i clean flashed and wiped everything but no luck .. please help me ... i am getting this error
did you connect to internet while setting up ROM?
did you remove any system related app?
just reboot while doing setup and got this one
Yep, simple reboot (it's not always working) or wipe dalvik and cache. If it's not working install again the rom, sometimes do this, so don't worry.

Damn man, you share the same issue with me, I always wanna get back to miui but this this is annoying, even I can pass this by rebooting the phone but the settings will always force close, it said "settings has stopped working" or something like that, hence I cannot open the settings (always force close right after opening). So, maybe I don't belong to this ROM again and stick to custom ROM.

Hey, got this same issue. Resolved it by restarting the phone swapping out SIM cards or Wi-Fi whichever is connected.

Clean flash rom and remove sim cards and keep wifi disabled when booting.
Effectively no internet and should be good to go

May i know why no official unlock. With official unlock it is much easier to do modification than the unofficially unlock.

I have asked for unlocking permission but till now I haven't got any replies from xiaomi, so in my mind instead of waiting for a long long time why don't I go just unlock it unofficially, and I unlocked it that way.
And what do u mean by it is easier to do modification by unlock it officially than unofficial one?

Just go to unlock site , when you enter the unlock, if it was bootloader unlock tool download page ( if you are in your request verification like that page means you have to wait ) you are given permission to unlock and download the tool and run in your PC definitely one click unlock .all happened to me. They were not send SMS to everybody.
I browsed androidfilehost.com and found the fix for your issue but sorry as I won't provide the link that's non ethical. Just in case you want to, just google "androidfilehost kenzo" . you will find the file probably after going thru like more than two pages. Good luck

My kenzo was officially unlocked. But i'm still getting this error and reboot didn't help me.
isn't there any other way to bypass this setup? Anyone got any solution?
Even xiaomieu forum have no solution for this issue.
just don't connect to internet(wifi or cellular data) during first setup and you're good to go. add the accounts(google/mi) later from settings.

That the problem with China company phone. Very slow to adopt new technology in their department. While all around the world using automated system to granted the unlock bootloader. The Xiaomi is still using "human" to grant the unlocker bootloader code
Xiaomi human staff grant unlock code might suddenly can do mistake and they cant process million of application while on the other hand the computerized system can grant applications very fast than human process.

Therefore I am lazy to wait the unlocked code comes to me, so I unlocked my device unofficially. Maybe I don't need to go back to MiUI again. ?

after flashing TWRP don't reboot to system
just flash another rom (custom rom) or flash dm verity disabler(some thing like that because i don't know the exact name hahaha)
the point is, if you are using custom recovery after unlocking bootloader use custom rom too
but if you just plan to unlock the bootloader without installing custom recovery or rom is ok too

Hi, it happend to my phone too, first you must flash a custom room, if you like miui 8, the only you have to do is modify the file Boot.img this one is located at the images folder of miui flashing files, then you con flash the twrp, it works really good

Going completly back to stock

Hey lads, help me understand something,
How can i go back to stock? I mean, no root, locked bootloader, no custom recovery, stock rom with the possiblity of OTA updates. As if i never touched my phone to begin with. I have no clue honestly.
Thanks lads.
Just download miflash tool. Go into bootloader(powerbutton + volume down keys), and flash the latest MIUI version and make sure to choose the option : CLEAR ALL AND LOCK.
Thanks! But i cant use the mi flash software, it doesnt recognize my phone!! I tried it all. for focks sake im losing my mind here!
Install the snapdragon drivers, and verify is your data cable is working correctly? If still it don't show then reinstall the windows or use another pc.

You have to download the stock recovery

Put the file in c:/adb
Then using adb
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Now mi flash will recognise your device.

Miui global stable 9.6.2.0 fastboot rom for vince:
http://bigota.d.miui.com/V9.6.2.0.N...FD_20180608.0000.00_7.1_global_caaf0fdef6.tgz
This solution works with Global version right? I'll get a MIUI 10, I'd like to try some AOSP Oreo Build like Pixel Experience, if there's anything I don't like, then I'll want to put back MIUI with locked bootloader/encryption/etc before handing over the handset to a relative.
I read somewhere that re-locking bootloader was not possible with some versions in the MIUI forums. But maybe it was an old post.

Just download miflash tool. Go into bootloader(powerbutton + volume down keys), and flash the latest MIUI version and make sure to choose the option : CLEAR ALL AND LOCK.

You have to download the stock recovery

Put the file in c:/adb
Then using adb
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Now mi flash will recognise your device.

You can't use Mi Flash Tool or twrp because your device is on locked bootloader

He didn't say he has locked bootloader.
He asked how to go back to locked bootloader from unlocked and rooted.

Asus ROG Phone | Bootloader unlocked? Rootable? Dev forecast?

Hey all,
Like many of you in the enthusiast category with phones, with all the detrimental lock downs from varies companies, we've been eager to and most likely willing to jump onto that next device that will offer us an unlocked bootloader (US market/variant.)
The big question is if this phone will be bootloader unlocked? It's too early to tell I know, but it'd be good to keep tabs on this. Asus really has a good chance to separate themselves from the rest with this promising device.
If anyone has any info on the forecast of this phones future for customization, please share it here when it becomes available.. I'm sure many would love to hear all about it. We can compile it all here in a dedicated thread
Thanks and keep your fingers crossed!
I found around internet this: (photo in attach)

Would you be able to flash the WW rom on a CN version device?
Or would you need something additional to be able to do so?

You can't flash TWRP without unlocking the bootloader first. Since Asus hasn't released the official unlocking tool yet for our device you would have to unlock it using other methods which isn't advisable to do that is if you are able to find an alternative method at the first place.
Chinese forum regarding Root
in the ROG phone download section there is:
Unlock Device App: Unlock boot loader
I think that's it, what we want
https://www.asus.com/tw/Phone/ROG-Phone/HelpDesk_Download/
Looks like the TW Asus site has an official 'unlock' executable, but whether it works on other regional versions is unknown.

Yes it's already available on the Chinese download section. Personally i will not attempt to unlock yet because i need the warranty service. If you unlock you lose warranty and system update as stated by them. Anyway if any of you want to unlock and flash TWRP here is the link to download the TWRP for each system update make sure to choose your current system version. By the way i bare no responsibility for the TWRP files i simply found the link for the files and i don't know who compiled them.

I would do it as soon as I received the phone because unlocking the bootloader it means wiping the data and I wouldn't lose everything later on...
The Unlock Device App is also on the US website
https://www.asus.com/us/Phone/ROG-Phone/HelpDesk_Download/
Select Android for OS

I don't have the phone yet.
I imported from Taiwan which was the WW version, so i suppose will be unlockable in most countries.
As for root, shakalaca has uploaded TWRP to Mega(the link above) and has a modified version of Magisk which u can download from his custom channel posted in the Asus forum, using Magisk manager.
HTTPS://bit.ly/2NGVKqS
(sorry im a newbie so can't post full link so used JP 2byte fonts)
The regular Magisk will result in bootloop.
Also unlocking the phone seems to disable the OTA as usual, but also manual update(unless its done differently from the Zenfone 3, where u just place the ZIP in root directory).
Sideload works, and once u have TWRP, it shouldn't be a problem though.

What steps did you take to make the change, what are the differences?. Are there any disadvantages to the conversion?
One more thing where do you find the stock recovery?. I haven't found it in the stock rom zip file.

I haven't confirmed flashing from install on the ROG phone, since I updated using adb sideload before flashing TWRP.
But there is an option for sideload in TWRP so I assume its possible.
