Hello Friends,
After a lot of search and read I am confused. What is complete set of steps required to flash MM rom (non Miui)? What precautions I should take since I unlocked unofficially?
My needs for daily driver is
Good battery life
Working GPS
Working Camera
Root (for titanium backup and adblock)
Current status
Unlocked - UNOFFICIALLY
Recover - ALKA
Rom - Miui LP Global stable
Security - Fingerprint + Pin
Steps I have collated so far
* Remove pin and delete fingerprints
* Do I need to do something about encryption ?
* Goto recovery
** Should I flash another recovery ??
** Nandroid backup
** Wipe cache/dalvik/data/system
** Flash
**** CM13 Firmware
**** Rom (Example RR 5.7.4)
**** Kernel (Example Radon)
**** Gapps
** Clear Dalvik
** Reboot
If fingerprint issue
* Goto recovery
** Flash
**** Goodix Fp8 ( First check if Goodix)
**** Kernel
** Wipe Dalvik
** Reboot
Thanks for your inputs on above. Please also suggest MM rom suitable for my needs.
I'd suggedlst you use Cyanogenmod 13 by TheStrix.
All are stable, I haven't encountered any issues.
What you need to do
-Phone's bootloader needs to be unlocked
-Flash CM13 Firmware (if you're coming from MIUI8, no need to flash this)
-Flash CM13 ROM (Snapshot)
-Flash GAPPS
-Flash Radon Kernel latest version. (I recommend you to usre Radon Kernel because the stock kernel has battery reading issues, it decreases by 2%)

Thanks.
* I'm at MIUI 8 but Lollypop .. so if I get you correctly, I need not flash CM13 firmware.
* Another query - is there no extra precaution required for Unofficial unlock and no need to use any other TWRP?

I had a problem with unofficially unlocking maybe because the unofficial unlock requires to flash Lollipop Global ROM and I was running MM. What I did is find a way that requires to flash MM Dev ROM to unlock. Maybe you won't have a problem if you're gonna flash it using Dev ROM.

I think since mine is unofficial then Step 3 requires removal of emmc_appsboot.mbn before flashing. Also I will need to remove recovery.img from the miui rom to avoid TWRP being overwritten
I get the idea that we need to flash miui mm rom first so that partitions are created. But doesn't that can be taken care by flashing CM13 firmware?

did u know how to remove emmc_appsboot or replace that ? is the recovery rom will replace the TWRP if flash the rom recovery ?
yup is better to flash miui mm first and unlocked bootloader, CM13 is to old and didnt get update firmware today, so i didnt flashed CM13 Firmware.
why didnt unlock officialy ?
*sorry my english is not really good*

Hi everyone,
a quick question.
I am running a:
RN3 Pro SD Kenzo
8.0.6.0 Global Stable firmware ( Lollipop ), unofficial unlock
ZCX TWRP
... yeah, I am still on Lollipop. Reason is that this firmware, at the time of flashing, proved to be the most stable, so I kept it. It still is the best Xiaomi firmware I tested, out all of them, but now, I would like to test out Lineage OS
What would be the fastest way for me to flash the latest Lineage OS on this phone, while keeping the bootloader unlocked?
Can I just wipe the phone, add Lineage and GApps and flash it through recovery?
make sure you have downloaded latest firmware, LOS rom & gapps....next steps is backup your current rom & go flashing.
twrp > wipe > wipe dalvik, system, data & cache > install latest firmware > install LOS rom > install gapps > reboot > done
here is firmware you have needed
Thank you for taking the time to assist me.
Firmware link is not working, sadly.
... so, basically, if I get this right:
1. boot into my TWRP
2. wipe dalvik/system/data/cache
3. after wiping is done, flash/install the latest CM 14.1 firmware without rebooting, select wipe
4. after firmware finishes flashing/installing, flash/install LOS ( without rebooting ), select wipe
5. after that, flash/install GApps, select wipe
6. reboot, and that's it?
Any special steps I should take to keep my unofficial bootloader unlock, or that does not matter with LOS?

sorry...find it here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/cm14-14-1-aosp-n-firmware-kenzo-kate-t3507789
that is right...follow my instructions & no need to worrie about bootloader
Thank you for the link. But, the firmware you provided the link for is only around 46MB. Is that right?
Thank you for the asistance. Everything is flashed, and working.
Additional step I had to do was to flash the camera fix from here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...niversal-camera-binary-patch-kenzo-n-t3572779
... and done.
Now, as for the root access, only option I have available through Developer options is root through ADB. Do I download the root package from here:
https://download.lineageos.org/extras
... or is there another method for RN3Pro SD LineageOS?
Downloaded LOS root package. I am set
I have Kate with miui 10.2 global stable and I want to flash mokee rom for kenzo on it what steps should I follow after unlock bootloader and flash zcx twrp and what about frimware does the kenzo ROM will make problems with network for Kate ? should I flash the frimware first after wipe data and system then flash the ROM then gapps ?

Make sure u come from latest miui 10 stable
If u unlocked boot loader unofficially and zcx
then first replace ur zcx twrp with latest twrp. Then u can flash custom roms and gapps.
U dont need any firmware Before flashing custom roms.
Just format data
Wipe data reset
Flash rom and gapps.
Reboot.
If u try to flash those 50mb size miui firmware zip using twrp then u will brick ur phone coz u r unofficially unlocked. So get rid of that firmware fever from ur head. U dont need any.
In case if u feel like going again back to miui global rom then put ur phone in EDL mode and flash kate fastboot global rom using computer and miflashtool.

Better use official TWRP, Orangefox or Redwolf recovery
No need to flash firmware as you're already on MIUI 10.2
Just wipe system, data, also format data & proceed to flash the rom
Thanks for the help guys

Can you help me? This is for Kenzo
I had softbricked? my phone. Went through the process of installing the MIUI 10 fastboot rom but it required activation which I can't do as I forgot my login details (i bought this phone years ago)
Yesterday I managed to unlock unofficially using this method
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66379587&postcount=3
Didn't install 7.1.8, just 7.2.5, followed the instructions, was able to enable oem-unlock and usb debugging, confirmed bootloader was unlocked
Flashed the latest twrp, tried zwcx, lastly tried the latest orangefox
Tried flashing AOSPextended nougat and viper os nougat with various recoveries but they were stuck at the logo for the corresponding roms
I am not sure...do I have to do anything with that boot.img patcher? And if so, when would I flash it?
Went through the same steps again. Same result. All roms get stuck on the custom boot animation
edit:nevermind, flashed that unlocked bootloader rn3_unlockonly in miflash and it booted up

There is an updated guide to unlock unofficially on MIUI 9 with new bootloader.
The problem was you unlocked on older version of MIUI.
To recover password try to visit mi cloud & check if you can do something or forget & use custom roms as there's nothing good about MIUI.

ONLY CUSTOM ROMS ARE ALLOWED.
Hello. I have an unlocked G8342, and I'm trying installing phh's GSI. But after I flashed the system image, I cannot boot my phone. It just shows "SONY" and then rebooted automatically.
I tried flashing the SW_binaries_for_Xperia_Android_9.0_2.3.2_v5_yoshino.img or SW_binaries_for_Xperia_Android_8.1.6.4_r1_v16_yoshino.img.
Before I unlock my phone, I've upgraded to the official Pie release. But what I'm installing is Oreo. Does this matter? Or what should I do in order to make it work?

if u dont backup ur TA partition before unlocking your bootloader, camera will not work on oreo gsi roms. I recommend u can try pie gsi roms, but it has worse camera quality and stability issues..

what gsi rom are you trying to flash? Do you have TWRP installed? I have a SOV36 (Japan AU version) and it boots with most of all gsi's. Currently using omni rom.
Here is my steps for flashing.
1. boot into twrp
2. goto wipe and factory reset (don't wipe data, system or cache just factory reset)
3. flash img
3a. optional: goto wipe; repair and resize system (if you want gapps)
4. flash gapps
5. flash magisk if you want root
6. reboot
Hope this helps

latest RR gsi did not work for me either but roms like omni, bootleggers, lineage 16 all booted on my SOV 36
Flash the lastest pie ftf, then follow sinkoo1979, instructions, also be sure you only flash ARM64-A versions.. I know Omni, Bliss and bootleggers work with imo bootleggers was the nicest but the unofficial one here has ceased development.. Use open camera for your pics...
The Roms are a hit or miss...make and keep a twrp backup handy...

Thank you very much for you quick response :good:, I will do what you suggest , and i will report results.
The method would be the same as flashing Havoc OS.
- Boot into TWRP (hold power + volume up)
- Wipe Data, Cache and Dalvik (I also wipe system, but it's not always mentionned to do so)
- Flash the latest firmware https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/#stable (optionnal, you should already have a good enough firmware since you had Miui 10 before)
- Flash the ZIP file of the Nougat ROM of your choice
- Flash GApps
- Reboot phone
After that if you wish you can flash Magisk for root and other Kernels.

hello,
so I was just wondering is it safe to flash MIUI 10 global rom with twrp? I know that it will probably replace the twrp with stock recovery, but it is easily fixed. I had to restore old backup and right now I'm on MIUI beta rom but with beta roms being shut down starting from 1st july, I just want to convert to the latest MIUI global rom which is avilable here on thier offical site and it is called Version: V10.3.4.0.PEJMIXM (MIUI10)
so again my question:
1. is it safe to flash this rom with TWRP?
2. will i need fastboot zip file if I choose to flash with TWRP?
3. or can I just download the normal zip and flash it through local update feature? please take note that twrp is installed on my phone
so that's all.. thanks for your time:good:

No,I recommend downloading the full (recovery) rom and flashing it in twrp, and then flashing the 'Disable Force Encryption' zip and later magisk if needed.., wipe dalvik cache & reboot
This way you don't lose twrp or anything else on your phone

Hi ethanks for your reply. What do you mean by full rom? Does twrp allow flashing miui global roms just like any other custom roms?

Of course it does..
I'm talking about the full rom also called as recovery rom (Example :-
https://en.miui.com/getrom-355.html?m=yes&mobile=2
Visit this link to see the latest miui stable & beta ROMs for Poco f1, both of them are full ROMs aka recovery ROMs of the latest miui for Poco f1
1) I assume you have already unlocked bootloader etc..
First you have to have the essential files i.e the rom zip file you want to install, disable Force Encryption zip file, Magisk zip file (All files links will be available in the main Poco f1 thread)
2) Next you boot into twrp (Power + volume up button)
Next select install, navigate to the downloaded rom zip file and swipe to flash (DONT reboot after flash, click back)
3) Now again select install & now flash the disable Force Encryption zip file (This is very important & should be done during every rom flashing)
4) Next go back & flash Magisk for root
5) Wipe dalvik cache and reboot

Did you flash stable rom ?
And did you erase the data or internal storage?
I am on beta as well and have unlocked bootloader and twrp & magisk installed with Force encryption Disabled.
I want to switch to 10.3.5.0 Stable ROM.
But I don't know whether to erase Data partition or not.

1) Use migrate app from play store to take a backup of current phone app data, the backup is stored in a flashable zip format
2) Next boot to twrp, choose wipe and select davlik, cache, system, data later follow my steps in my previous comment to flash new rom
3) Set up phone etc, Make sure Magisk is installed properly
4) Next boot into twrp & flash the migrate zip file located in migrate folder, reboot after flashing, you will get a notification about migrate backup once rebooted, open it and restore everything or select choose to restore for selective restore of data
