Need help with flashing a custom rom. - Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers

Exclude bootloader partition while backing up, good to go. And also, once everything's going right just wipe from twrp & flash firmware, Rom & gapps, Reboot!

so what you mean is that i should only backup system and data? As i mentioned i am pretty new to this so i do not know most of the phrases that are used in the xda developers forums

Ahhh, Deym!
Anyway, backup / restore is still buggy on mido!
Why you wanna take nandroid? Just wipe everything and flash cm14.1 firmware first, then custom rom & gapps, reboot!
You can easily flash Miui using TWRP if you don't like custom Roms!

well i wanted to backup in case something went wrong. do you think i should backup my data another way? is it even safe to just attempt to wipe everything?

Yep, taking a nandroid backup is just incase! :silly:
But since TWRP for Mido has bugs in this part, I'd just skipped that step and i dont wanna see Miui again
Just wipe, flash cm14.1 firmware, custom Rom & Gapps! WAYYYYY TO GOOOOOO! Good luck

i want to flash the resurrection remix rom. do i still have to flash cm14.1 firmware for that? isn't cm for cyanogenmod?

Nah, it depends!
If you're coming from Android 6X based MIUI then you need to flash cm14.1 firmware, if you're jumping from Android Nougat based MIUI then there's no need of firmware.

First unlock your bootloader then flash via fastboot this kernel. When booting press volume up and you are in recovery.

can i flash 475 HK ?
Will it wipe DATA and/or Internal Storage ?
I tried to flash, but the program said "waiting for device".
What does this mean, I don't have unlock bootloader? or I'm on 475?

yes you need to have unlocked bootloader ( make sure you backup TA before unlocking ) then flash this recovery and flash the rom in cwm.

it will wipe system only. just do a wipe fty reset, wipe cache and dalvik. i did /data too.. and flash the rom.
no need to wipe internal sdcard and the rom will not wipe internal data

For install ROM anywere(cyanogen/MIU/Stock):
Put the firmware(ROM.zip) archive to SD-card,
Switch off your phone
get into recovery (You need to CWM: forum.xda-developers. com/android/general/rooting-twrp-cwm-lenovo-a680-row-t3036490 ):
- Go to the backup and restore, create a backup of the current state of your machine,
- Wipe Data / Factory Reset -> delete all user data
- Wipe Cache Partition -> Wipe cache
- Advanced -> Wipe Dalvik Cache -> Wipe Dalvik Cache
Next Install zip from sdcard -> choose zip from sdcard -> Select the firmware and install and reboot.
OR: Install Stock Rom and put ROOT for unistall apps system, and install Theme/Xposed Modules.

What he suggested will delete the lockscreen password/passcode etc so you can boot the phone without any prompts. You do this within TWRP.

oh in that case, should I have to factory reset everytime I flash a rom through my TWRP? I use ZCX TWRP, so Lazy flasher is not required after rom flashing right?
you just need it once . to decrypt your storage

In the information about the ZCX TWRP I found below:
ZCX TWRP : http://forum.xda-developers.com/redm...persu-t3462448
- Based on official TWRP 3.0.2-0
- Patches boot.img automatically (Removes dm-verity flag)
- Disables forced encryption
Should I have to tweak anything in TWRP settings to remove this dm-verify flag everytime?

I tried it. Earlier i did not have any issue even if i install custom rom on my Redmi note 3. But today i thought of trying Pure Nexus *Substratum* rom. And on the first boot it asked me to enter password. though i have never kept password for my mobile, i tried all the passwords that i remember, which didnt solve my issue. then saw ur reply and tried it, and still it didnt work for me. Any other way?:crying:

Are you coming from MIUI? If so then MIUI encrypts the data partition, hence the new ROM asking for a password.
Before you install the ROM, you must "format data" on wipe in TWRP, this is different from wipe data.
Note that this will delete all your data obviously.

Are you sure that you used "format data"?
Wipe data doesn't remove the encryption.

bootloop issue

hi i tryed to convert my redmi note 4x to global when flashing with mi flash tool i did it without clean and after that firmware finish installing but got stuck in bootloop now i flashed twrp and tryed to flash custom rom but again bootloop when i check my storage it shows 9gb now when its actual is 32gb i think i disturbed partitions any solution available?
Are you able to boot into TWRP?? If not flash TWRP first using fastboot.
Once you have access to TWRP boot into it and perform a full wipe (System + Data + Cache + Dalvik + Internal Storage). Perform a format too after wipe to be on the safer side. Now copy a custom ROM or MIUI ROM to your Internal Storage or SD card through a computer. Once copied install your ROM.
If you flashed custom ROM flash Gapps after flashing ROM. Reboot.
If you flashed MIUI, flash lazyflasher after that(or phone will be stuck at MI logo). Reboot.
You can find download links for lazyflasher here on XDA or you can google it too.

@ArK96 is right but the only thing i suggest is to, flash miui and lazyflasher first so as to properly set up the initial firmware, and partitioning. After miui boots properly, you can do anything you want. :highfive:

Go here and download the Global Stable worldwide release version firmware.
Boot into twrp wipe and format everything. Also after that reflash TWRP again using fastboot.
Once reflashed boot into TWRP and again perform a full wipe and format, then install the downloaded firmware zip. After that reboot TWRP and try flashing MIUI.

Yes. Red wolf is more MIUI friendly, it is made with OTA survival in mind. But your issue is that the ROM is not getting flashed. You can try what I said above about TWRP reflash, if it doesn't work you can go ahead and try redwolf. REDWOLF is nothing but modded TWRP, base code is still TWRP.

Good job mate.

After Bootloader unlock no Phone function, no FP, no Sound

Hello, guys,
i unlocked my Bootloader properly, i flashed a ROM, i flashed all ROMs but the phone function is gone, no Audio Sound, no FP working!!! I dont know what to do, could someone teach me how to get my phone working again?
Did you flash xiaomi.eu pie rom before flashing an android pie rom?
Did you follow the installation instructions in the rom post that you tried to install?
you can always go back to miui stock downloading a fastboot rom image and using miflash
Flash stock miui 10 with mi flash and after this install miui 10 based on android p.

Try flashing the firmware over your rom https://sourceforge.net/projects/revolutionos-miui/files/9.3.7/Mi 8 Lite/ then do wipes (cache and dalvik)

Yes, it could be before or after. This issue would be solved by restoring vendor partition but most of user don't made a backup before flash custom roms

Try the next if one of this doesn´t result:
- Restore the vendor partition, do wipes, reboot
- Flash the firmware linked over your rom, do wipes, reboot
- Do a clean flash again, wipe cache, dalvik, system and data (if it´s important backup it before), flash the custom rom you are using, GApps, Magisk, reboot.
Report results to help others.
