You need a lazyflasher zip file for first time

@jatin.t.16 you need lazyflasher if you rooted the phone and still stick with miui. This is to avoid bootloop.
If you want to flash custom rom, you need drivers (link provided by @DarthJabba9) ESPECIALLY when you migrated from Marshmallow base MIUI to any Nougat base custom rom.

Need help in Flashing

Hello,
I just bought Redmi Note 3(Kenzo) after selling My Moto G3 Turbo. I have got permission from the MI for unlocking bootloader first day itself.
But I went through some forum link and im confused on the procedure to unlock bootloader and flash custom recovery and ROMS.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/guide-redmi-note-3-available-twrps-t3406708 Went through this and got more confused which TWRP should i Flash and all..
Could anyone please provide me the step by step procedure to unlock bootloader and flash custom roms like cm13, 14.. Please
I just use the standard TWRP for kenzo. I tried cofface and had a few issues with it being picky about the USB drive I was using. Many like using TWRP alka version since it can back up so many different things compared to the standard but the standard has worked for me in between moving MIUI 8 dev/stable, CM13, and CM 14.
I suggest zcx twrp, you can flash any ROM and backup all partitions.
Download MI UNLOCK tool once you get your permission to unlock.
Flash TWRP (Official or by dadi11) using fastboot.
Choose ROM and Flash it.
Thank You All.

Thanks for the reply.
I have got the permission and downloaded the flash tool. I am confused in flash CM 13 roms... I saw that we need to be on cm 13 or 14 firmware which is around 45-50mb.
So once i unlock the bootloader, do i need to flash anything else apart from TWRP to install custom roms or directly flash custom rom. Also can i go back to lollipop rom again from CM.

Yes, you do not need to install anything else I guess. Somehow going back to LP does not work. However, developer ROM works fine through fastboot.

How to reinstall miui from custom rom

Does anyone have tutorial to reflash miui ? im using custom rom epicrom (miui based) but i want using miui again but i dont know how to flash miui at twrp
or should i use custom rom flash method for flashing miui? and do i need lazyflasher?
Hi,
Go to miui web en.Miui . Com, on the top click to download, select your device, then version (global, china, mtk),then click to flashing guide and select fastboot update.
Download a rom you want (stable or weekly) for your device.
Download miui flashing app on the same link.
Extract the rom you have download, the extract extracted file again and you will get a lot of files. Then follow step 3 and the rest of manual.

Its as same as installing any other custom rom, so firstly head over to http://en.miui.com/download.html
and from there get the build you want. If possible keep it on an external storage media, since you may need to format data.
Please note that if you are coming from LOS/ AOSP based roms, you have to format data, and clean wipe your device, and everytime you flash dont forget to flash the lazy flasher also.

First flash new vendor mirror.akhilnarang.me/MIUI/beryllium/ latest atm is 9.4.25 i think. You should ofcourse clean wipe before doing the vendor. After flashing the vendor the rom should no longer give error 7
Thanks bro i will try
After flashing this can i flash miui 10 rom also??

Personally i don't play pubg but some of the people in telegram group do so support is in the chat group if needed some seem to change kernel to gain some performance but i think it performs good enough unless you have touch issues that some fts users have
I would not recommend flashing miui through twrp as many have reported that it bricks the device or maybe they are just doing something wrong
Twrp is best for custom roms
Use mi flasher for flashing miui

You don't have to flash any vendor zip if you're going to flash MIUI 10. If you wish to flash MIUI 10 for example from en.miui.com the global MIUI 10 then you can just flash the MIUI zip following magisk if you wish to have root then just reboot. You will have to flash the vendor zip if you wish to flash custom rom as custom rom don't have vendor firmware in it. Flash vendor first then the custom rom zip following with gapps and mod optional.
And yeah, if you flash custom rom and then flash MIUI back you might get region locked where you cant change the region, but I've solved that by flashing cust.img from global image zip using fastboot, this is because the cust partition isn't installed properly. It's the best to flash using Mi Flash, but it will encrypt you device. Do it on your own risk, im just simply sharing from my experience and im not responsible if your device change to iOS.

Yes you can flash any Miui Rom via TWRP Download The Flashble Zip Not the Fastboot One.
But When You will flash Stock MiUi 10 Rom Via TWRP You will Loose All Of Your Data.
You Need to Flash DFE After Flashing Stock One.
If You want To Flash Custom Rom
Flash Vendor
Flash Rom and Gapps
If You Want To Root Flash Magisk.
And Then Any Custom Kernel.
Reboot to System.

What custom ROM are you using? I have found them all disappointing, one way or another. I'm currently on rooted MIUI 10 Oreo.

There is something called personal preference.
Just like you prefer MIUI some others prefer custom ROMs

Why are these custom ROMs not compatible with Oreo Firmware??
Edit: I am planning to compile a ROM for the first time. All I have ever done is to compile recovery(For Redmi 5A) where they are compatible with Oreo firmware(just like other recoveries).

Nobody has worked on the oreo sources yet so...
@sunnyraj84348 might be working on it, I don't know, I'm just assuming. Maybe he's focusing on Android 10 ROMs more than Oreo kernel.

Good luck with your project ?
[ i'm noob ] Does orange fox recovery working properly on miui 11 ? Unfortunately,i was update my riva to miui 11,succed to unlock bootloader but not with twrp,when i was flash twrp via fastboot,twrp just show up red screen then dim to black screen & only vibrate when touched. I was forgot to add command delete recovery from fastboot,before flashing twrp. Please help,any suggest to proper twrp at stock miui 11 global stable ? Sorry for bed english.
Not work properly when downgrade from MIUI 11 Oreo,now i experience messed up with stock miui rom,try to reverse back with flash full recovery rom from twrp,succed to flash,but when boot into setup wizard,error message appear,eg; "miui daemon has stopped,under that pop up,again error pop up "google service framework has stopped" > "xiaomi service framework has stopped" > "setting has stopped" & bla...bla..bla...! I can't pass setting wizzard,can't continue to normal screen. Then i flash pixel xperience rom 9.0,flawlessly boot until setting wizard done,run smoothly without error. Usually i like to change between custom then stock rom from twrp when i was bored with 1 rom. But now i'm stuck on pixel experience 9.0 (caf) & no twrp working properly when want to flash stock miui oreo.

Installing a rom without recovery

Hi everyone, I want install a new custom ROM (I'm on CrDroid 7.6 on Android 11) but I can't boot into recovery. I tried to flash a new recovery but i get this message from fastboot "(remote: '(recovery_b) No such partition')".
I've always installed custom OS using a custom recovery but it seems that that there is no recovery partition on Android 11 ?
Do I have to flash the boot partition with the custom rom .zip directly ?

You need to:
1. root
2. flash custom recovery
3. flash rom
To flash the recovery you use "fastboot flash boot recovery.img" ?
Do I need to flash both partition ?

This phone have a/b partion system. The recovery partition is present or phone will not boot. Install a rom via fastboot is possible but it's not safe. In every custom rom thread you can find los recovery and how to install procedure. Read with accuracy. Open the section kernel and custom rom. I suggest you pixel experience
Thank you ! The PixelExperience thread got a nice procedure on how to flash it.
I'll try to flash this ROM tomorrow to test it.
If this is successful I'll try other ROM without Gapp included and with official release, any suggestion ?

Yeah nezuko and corvus seems pretty good, I would rather use a popular ROM like lineage but those ROM looks very promising
Corvus is fantastic... With some optimization made with root... In my opinion is the best at now. For performance, stability and systemUI
