Help with Redmi Note 3 (BL/TWRP/ROM) - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

Hey everyone! In the past, I have tried to unlock my Redmi Note 3's Bootloader via the official method (yes I have permission), and also fastboot oem unlock command. Nothing seems to work, and I am going to follow some tutorials to get ZCX TWRP on my phone. Provided it works, I need to know some things:
1. Will those tutorials (they all do same thing; flash ZCX TWRP via Mi Flash EDL) unlock bootloader?
2. If not, will I be able to flash custom ROMs like AEX 5.7 via recovery?
3. Can ZCX TWRP be replaced by official TWRP?
Help with getting rid of MIUI (and my locked bootloader) would be appreciated.
Cheers!

Same thing happened to me... I accidentally locked my bootloader while flashing with MI flash. And now mi unlock tool saying "this account couldn't be used to unlock bl" (I too have unlocking permissions ??)
Now I'm stuck with stock miui rom??

I have this same error! Anyway, I'm now on official TWRP 3.2.2-0... Need to know whether it's safe to allow modification of System, and whether I can flash stuff.

Yes you can, almost 90℅ of redmi note 3 users have unlocked unofficially , just dont flash miui rom with twrp

How u know 90% are unofficial unlocked ?

Update: It works
I decided to try for myself, and successfully flashed AEX 5.7. Gapps is giving me some problems but that's probably because I installed the stock zip. Micro will probably be more stable while retaining face unlock feature. Thanks to everyone who helped, and the awesome community.

Because of error current account cannot unlock this device

Note 3 [SD] came with unlocked Bootloader

Hey all!
I just got my Note 3 (Snapdragon/Kenzo) from DX and it came with global US rom. I checked and its bootloader is already unlocked. I want to update to Miui 8 global dev but I'm worried with this unlock, is there a way to know if it was officialy or unnoficialy unlocked? I want to flash the oficial recovery rom but heard that it can brick the phone if it was unnoficialy unlocked.

It came with Miui 7.3 Stable (7.3.2.0.0 LHOCNDD)
Please, help. =)

That is a vendor rom.
More than likely it is unofficially unlocked, because your only allow to unlock 1 device per month for each account.
Since your bootloader is unlocked, flash an official rom (which might lock the bootloader again).
Don't flash the latest 6.0.1 rom yet as you might not be able unlock with that.
Then unlock officially.
Check the reddit xiaomi wiki for guides.
Got it! Thanks, for your answer. I realy dont mind unlocking, I just want a miui 8 dev(it has a built in root, right?). I just was afraid of what method of flashing I should use with this unnoficialy unlocked bootloader. I'm going to search this wiki for it.
And better do a Alka TWRP backup now, before anything! Then, if you get your bootloader locked, you can always restore the backup to your current status - ROM and unlocked bootloader. I have two Kenzos in the same situation, and that's the way I do it.
Nice! Will do. Can't I just use that recovery to install an updated rom? There is an annoying bug on this version, I can't open my contact or dialer app, they close befero they appear on screen, tried erasing data but no help.
Boot from TWRP without installing it, make the backup (all partitions), then make sure you get the backup on your PC. After that you can install TWRP and make whatever you wish.
And don't forget, if you need to restore, do it without restoring the firmware partition, or else you'll get an error.
Thansk! But I think I will stick with the global dev. Can I flash it via Fastboot (MiFlash)? This unnoficial unlock wont cause any trouble, right ?
This is not an unofficial unlock. Is isn't either official
My phones came with some vendor MIUI's - 7.4.9.0(LHOCNDD), respectively 7.4.18.0(LHOMIDD), but I never flashed another MIUI, just custom ROMs. For what I know, if you flash via fastboot it will wipe the entire partition structure, including boot and recovery, and the bootloader will get locked. In that case you can not restore the backup you make now. You'll have to apply for official unlocking, or go unofficial.

that means.. you recieved an unboxed device, may be refurbished, repacked and resealed and sold $25 costlier than the original. :silly:
Not necessarily. I have two, buyed from a local big online store, both came with unlocked bootloader. Both boxes were sealed, with no sign of foreign hands
I have 7.3.2.0.0 LHOCNDD rom and unlocked bootloader. Can I just type on fastboot:
fastboot flash recovery recoveryAlkaUpdate.img
to get twrp(alka)?
Thats work!

I have the same MIUI vendor as you, 7.4.9.0(LHOCNDD), what method did you use to install TWRP? I only want to install AOSP/CM based ROM on this device. I want to flash it ASAP cause this MIUI ROM have a Trojan downloader, which luckily can be disabled.
I used Cofface on first phone, Alka on the second. Before flashing, first boot from TWRP image, make backup of all partitions to the SD card, copy the backup on computer, and only after that flash the TWRP image. After that... flash ROMs

I followed a tutorial that uses ZXC TWRP while on MIUI. Then I flashed ALKA, I'm on Nexus Experience now.

Some questions from a noob on unlocking and rooting Kenzo . Pls help out

So I've read a lot of guides but a few questions still remain unanswered am hoping anyone here can shed some light
-> can I unlock on global stable (Lollipop) miui 7 version 8.0.2.0 (on which am currently on) or do I have to flash global developer rom to be able to unlock ?
-> can I use updater app to switch from stable to developer ? or do I need to use fastboot rom ?
Now on rooting
-> Can I simply install a twrp of my choice and flash super su with it to get root ?
->Do I need to flash universal boot img patcher before or after super su ?
->do I need to flash lazy flasher ?
Some people say simply flash supersu in any twrp to get root others say also flash ubp first! others say also lazy flasher
which is true ?
What's the difference between universal boot image patcher and lazy flasher ?
My aim is to simply root

FOR YOUR FIRST QUESTION: YES YOU CAN. I JUST TODAY UNLOCKED IN 8.0.2
2ND:YES YOU CAN SWITCH VIA UPDATER FROM STABLE TO DEVELOPER. BUT NOT SURE WHETHER CAN BE FROM STABLE LOLLIPOP TO DEVELOPER MARSHMALLOW. IT SHOULD WORK THOUGH,
3RD:YES YOU CAN SIMPLY FLASH SUPERSU.ZIP.... BUT UNLOCK BOOTLOADER VIA OFFICIAL WAY.ITS BETTER AND HASSELFREE FOR FUTURE.
4TH AND 5TH:I HAVENT USED UBP TILL NOW. ITS NOT THAT IMPORTANT. U CAN FLASH TWRP RECOVERY WITH LAZY FLASHER. WHEN YOU INSTALL MIUI VIA TWRP SIMPLY FLASH LAZY FLASHER AND SUPER SU AFTERWARDS. AND IT WILL WORK WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS.
http://en.miui.com/thread-283146-1-1.html for info..
if you unlock bootloader officially then there is twrp cofface. which automatically patches boot.img. So no need of lazy flasher too
Those are my experiences. may not be 100% correct.

You can use any bro for flashing custom roms
but for miui flash modified cofface with lazy flasher (for unofficial unlock) and u can use twrp cofface for official unlock to flash miui
always take backup before doing anything
i have never faced no sim issues bro when returning from cm to miui
so i dont know about that case.
yeah you can edl too but its not needed that often.

U can download from en.miui.com in download section
No it wont get relock
But u shall flash lazy flasher or use twrp cofface (for official)
I am saying these according to my experience
I unlocked unofficially 2 mnths ago
And flashed various custom as well as miui rom
And today i checked bootloader was still unlocked
But i guess there are some very few custom roms which relocks bootloader ( i forgot though)
But after you once flas twrp in ur phone though BL gets locked u still can flash miui zip custom rom, kernel anything via twrp so no issues
Based on my experience lol ????????????????
Official unlock is only successful for lucky ones
A lot of people have reported about the 50% error for which xiaomi's server are responsible
As far as unofficial unlock is concerned I don't know about which ones the safest and easiest method for 8.0.2.0
And is it possible to revert to miui if there is no earlier backup ?
From my experience.
When I got my hand on RN3, I update it to latest update, which is MIUI 8, stable version (Android 5).
Then try to unlock bootloader to flash custom rom. This is where my journey began.
Unlocking bootloader with Official method is not that hard.
- There is step by step guide from MIUI forum, although not everyone succeed with that method.
- My step:-
1. Apply permission from MIUI
2. Everyday login to MiUnlock Tool to see if I got permission already. (about two or three day of waiting)
3. Make sure Mi Account > Personal Info is same as MIUI Forum Account > Personal Info.
4. After that, I flash RN3 Fastboot Developer Rom (Android 6) with EDL, not with Fastboot using XiaomiFlashTool.
5. Once success flashing, setup phone like you going to use it, set MI Account and everything. Then reboot to fastboot.
6. Open MiUnlockTool and connect phone, and begin unlocking bootloader, and I got it success in no time.
My step to go back to MIUI (Stock Rom):-
1. Using RN3 Fastboot Developer Rom (Android 6), this one with bootloader locked.
2. Reboot phone to Fastboot mode, using XiaomiFlashTool to flash Stock Rom.
3. After that, setup as it is. Reboot again to Fastboot mode, and use MiUnlockTool to unlock again.
** Well that's for my experience. With such a hard and long journey.

Clarify whether you have already unlocked your bootloader, as you mentioned you unlocked your phone. I understood that to mean that you unlocked the bootloader.
The instructions are all over everywhere.
I too came from a Samsung so I know exactly what you think. The only thing you have to do differently is unlock the bootloader and there are clear instructions out there to do so. Flashing TWRP is about the same, so you can decide which version you wish to use. I use the standard but I started out using Cofface so perhaps you should consider using TWRP Alka or Cofface.
Flashing SuperSU is the same with TWRP as doing it on a Samsung. That isn't different.
I already download twrp 3.0.2.2 Official but how to install this twrp my device??
http://xiaomitips.com/guide/install-twrp-v3-0-0-on-redmi-note-3/
Google is your friend.

Unlocked unofficial , now permission granted to unlock official - what to do ?

I have Redmi Note 3 SD. I applied for official unlock while phone was on MIUI stable 8.0.6.0 (Lollipop) , but I did not wait for permission and I unlocked unofficial and I upgraded to MIUI stable 8.1.1.0 (Marshmallow). Safe TWRP is installed and phone is rooted .
What to do now ? Should I continue with official unlock ? Could it be done if phone is already unlocked (unofficial) ?
Does it change anything significant ? I think I would prefer to be officially unlocked , so the bootloader doesn't ever lock again , but I am not sure if I can or if I should proceed from actual state .
Thanks
PS - Just checked Mi Unlock status in settings and it says - This device is locked !!! . But in Fastboot says bootloader unlock : true !!!
I'm in the same position, and I've sometimes considered unlocking officially. But, for the most part, I am happy with my unofficial unlock and worried that the official process will not work immediately, so I haven't bothered to officially unlock yet.
This would be the proper procedure for doing so, I believe.
1. Take a full backup in TWRP and be sure to copy it to a PC or somewhere separate from the phone. Also copy any important files from internal storage to a PC or some external storage.
2. Flash the latest China development rom using Miflash. (This would relock your phone).
3. Boot and log in with your Mi Account. Check in with "find my phone" to make sure Xiaomi knows you are logged in on your phone with your account.
4. Unlock via the official method using the Mi Unlock Tool... and pray that it doesn't get stuck at 50%. (If it does. Do "find my phone again" and try again later... and again later... etc. Sometimes it reportedly takes days. This is why I haven't bothered to do this yet.)
5. After officially unlocking, you could theoretically restore your TWRP backup (probably avoid restoring any weird partitions other than system and data in case it screws up your bootloader).

Update - I tried unlocking official without flashing dev rom and relocking the phone - of course it didn't work because MiFlash could see the bootloader already unlocked . I will not bother anymore to unlock official if actual state of phone is safe for further custom roms .
Just to make sure - can someone advise if I can flash xiaomi.eu roms from Safe TWRP without worries ? Do I need to flash Universal boot img patcher too after I flash rom ?

I went through same path. Now on LAOS 14.1 . You can flash .. but do take backup of all partitions. Also do try to find what your FP sensor is. You may end up in issue like this https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3543397
Scroll though my other posts for more info.
The problem with Settings crashing , I solved by flashing Radon kernel - also FP is working with this kernel .
It looks like this Redmi Note 3 is much more prone to brick than Redmi 3 I used before. I went through quite a few bricks and failed flashes while unlocking and upgrading to Marshmallow .
With Redmi 3 , which I bought unlocked from Greece , I never had a single problem flashing custom roms - never used fastboot, edl , myflash , just TWRP .
So - no need to flash universal boot img patcher or anything else after flashing custom rom ?

Most guides say that you need the latest dev rom in order to unlock.
If you want to try with merely re-locked bootloader on your current rom, I believe maybe you can re-lock in fastboot?
"fastboot oem lock"
?

How to flash Chinese Developer ROM over Global rom to unlock Bootloader?

I had applied for permission to unlock bootloader officially and i got permission two days back.
When i try to unlock via MiUnlock app, it stuck at 50% and said Couldn't verify the device.
I searched on google and i found something like i should be on Developer Rom to unlock. So i flashed the Gobal Developer Rom through System Updater. Again i tried to unlock the phone, same error. Then i found , i should be on Chinese Developer rom. So again i tired to flash Chinese developer rom but this time it failed when i try to flash through System updater.
Can anyone tell me how to do?
Thanks in advance.
No matter how u try, it all depends on luck. With chinese developer rom I was able to unlock mine but not my friends RN3. The real truth is that xiaomi doesn't want to you to unlock otherwise why to complex a one command process. Its better to flash zxc twrp with miui rom flash method without unlocking or unlock it unofficialy.
Now to your answer if you want it. You can flash chinese developer rom via edl method through mi flash
Just flash via EDL and choose flash_all in MiFlash.
I had 50% problem with unlocking many times and it was always something to do with drivers or bad connection...
i think need sign in account has unlock permision to you phone and wait 1,2 days

Flashed the chinese rom using MIFlashTool. Still no luck.Same error.

ZXC twrp will help to install Lineage based ROM without any problem?
