Hi all.
I'm about to buy Redmi Note 3 Pro for my wife.
I'm Samsung user and I know alot about flashing Samsung but with Xiaomi I'm newbie.
I would like to put stock Android on it so CM13 seems the best to me.
Can someone provide me with links with instructions what to do to flash CM13 or maybe some other more stable rom. I need step by step instructions for starting from stock device with Miui, unlocking bootloader, flashing recovery, etc.
Thanks.

It's simple: unlock bootloader, install Alka twrp, backup your EFS, flash cm13, reboot.
But flashing cm13 may not be the best idea with new Kenzo device, as fingerprint scanner may not be working (Radio.zio may solve this problem).
Now all you have to do is read about those steps.

FP is working on CM 13 nightly. Go for it if u want to and dont forget to get latest gapps

Is the FP only issue with CM13 or are there any other issues? Maybe recommendation for some other more stable rom. It is not for me so it must be stable like stock.

I just bought a my redmi note 3 sd and i requested a bootloader unlock so im waiting now and i wanted to prepare a new ROM to install. I see that there are lots of ROMs but i want a stable one with almost everything working. I saw 2 ROMs like that F-Rom and AOSP? AND I wanted to ask which recovery should i install TWRP Official or Cofface-TWRP?
Thanks in advance
I am currently in global developer ROM.

For aosp and cm you need the normal recovery, cofface recovery is only for miui Roms. The Roms are based on the same leaked Rom From snapdragon. Aosp runs stable and fast, FP is working not AS fast then in miui but usable. Gapps are already included
Hi, I just unlocked my bootloader. I am on MIUI 7.3.6.0 on Redmi Note 3 Snapdragon. Bootloader was unlocked officially.
I am completely new to Android scene (my first Android), so I have no idea what works how.
Where can I find an updating rooting guide to my phone with latest MIUI? Each step by step.
Also would be much more awesome if someone here who is experienced could guide me through the whole rooting process on Skype chat.
Please, thank you!

Backup you data by miui inbuild. Flashed a miui 7 cn dev rom. Goto security > root permision then you it will offer you to root the phone. Once rooted, used flashify to flash alka twrp: http://en.miui.com/thread-282773-1-1.html?mobile=2. By using alka twrp you can flashed any official rom and flashed superSU.zip once completed you new rom will be rooted by superSU. Else you can referred to flasher toolkit: http://en.miui.com/thread-296053-1-1.html. I personally used official cn dev rom, alka twrp, rooted by superSU and xposed v85(xposed-v85-sdk22-arm64-MIUI-edition-by-SolarWarez-20160609.zip). If you preferred multi languages the used alka twrp to flash latest global dev rom and superSU in on go. Done and enjoying.

8. if my device is note 4x can use this stock rom? Redmi Note 4 Qualcomm Global (http://en.miui.com/download-309.html#468)

1,2,3. Install AID64 app from Playstore and you will find what you need.
4. Google is your best friend:good:
5. Yes
6. Not sure but mostly a yes unless you have installed some custom recovery like twrp
7,8. Both are the same. Better to flash fastboot version instead of flashable zip. Use google to find the fastboot version rom
9. Yes but you need to modify the flashable zip before flashing or else you will end up with a locked bootloader. Those flashable zips have a script for locking bootloaders automatically.
10. Device gets tampered only if you mess around with its parts. To restore to stock using fastboot version rom ONLY. How to flash the rom? Once again google is your best friend.
Hope this helps. Good luck

Raheel

I'll help some questions since someone already answered all your questions.
1. There is 3 versions, Redmi Note 4 (MTK), Redmi Note 4x (SD 3/32 and MTK 4/64), Redmi Note 4 (Global) (All SD versions) (same as 4x just different bands for global market). Easy way, look at your box.
2. That easy, some apps will do, or you can look at your about devices. If octacore SD, decacore MTK
3. Yes, there are 3 different camera sensors, Sony IMX, Samsung s5k, Omnivision OV. You can see *#*#6484#*#* which one better? Idk, some people like the sony one.
4. For custom roms, FPC better.
Just remember the code name, If you have SD version the code name is "mido" and Mediatek "nikkel" so you wont cross flashing roms.

Hello everyone , As All we know that offical TWRP is released for Redmi note 5 So please send all of us a detailed guide for installing TWRP and Android Oreo or any Customer ROM available now. Thank you
You could use your friend Google.
To unlock just use the official Xiaomi tool for unlocking. If you can't find that than you should take some sort of computer class first.
Currently there's no Oreo ROM for this device, so untill someone ports or builds one you can only flash AOSP Nougat ROMs.
