Hello !
I saw that the bootloader will be unlocked by default and that custom ROM will not avoid warranty ( does anyone can confirm that ??) .. but is this phone compatible with project treble ? If it is, he's definitly changing the market
1. Mi A2 with 8.1 has Treble. So Poco should also have treble
2. Adding treble is not changing the market, it's a requirement from Google.
I've the POCO F1.
Bootloader can be unlocked by following the same method as any other Xiaomi device. I did that with my device. So possible 15 days wait.
Unlocking bootloader will not void warranty.

Hi
POCO F1 is compatible with A only, or A/B treble?
Thanks.

Hi guys, quick question here.
I have bought a Redmi Note 4 , 32gb/3gb Snapdragon one.
I have these questions.
How is warranty affected after rooting our device ?
How is warranty affected by uunlocking the bootloader ?
What features won't work after unlocking the bootloader ?
What to keep in mind, to avoid problms in future , would xiaomi service centres be of any help ?
Thank you. Please answer separately for each question.
Xiaomi just like onePlus supports rooting....
So don't worry...
You can always get back your warranty by Just flashing the global stable ROM...
Also all the features will work after unlocking bootloader...
Do remember that it's you who is willing to make the changes and I'm not responsible if anything goes wrong...
Avoid rooting if you don't have adequate knowledge...

1) You void your warranty on rooting your device
2) Unlocking the bootloader itself doesn't void your warranty.. but the Mi Unlock tool clearly states whatever happens after the bootloader unlock (custom ROM install and stuff) is your responsibility.. so if something happens during those processes, the warranty is void..
3) according to xiaomi, things like Encryption and find my device won't properly work..
4) flash original fastboot rom and relock the bootloader if you want to take the thing to service center.. the only situation where your warranty truly is void is if you manage to brick it beyond repair, which is almost impossible to do.. (you can make a xiaomi deep flash cable (google it) to fix the device even when you can't directly boot into fastboot mode)
P.S. - i haven't done the deep flash stuff.. just posting what I learnt on the internet
---------- Post added at 07:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:44 PM ----------
As long as the technicians get the phone running unrooted stock MIUI, they won't complain..
PS - again this is according to the internet.. i have not tested this..

Nothing to worry, just do eet!
I remember the case when i bricked my galaxy S1 back in those years 2 times and I took it to the service center in india which was almost a kilometre from my house and i told the guy that it got bricked when i was charging it.. He replaced the motherboard and gave me both the times.. And told me that I probably had a loose connection at home ?.. I told him I'll get it fixed.. Thats the only device i ever bricked and that too because it was the first device i was trying to mod.. Its really tough to brick the newer devices.. But i dont know if the trick i used still works with the service centres today..
Before this i only experience root phone that has no warranty. Now with this info, it make sense. When restore the stock ROM everything goes back to normal on my old Samsung device. That mean the device is fully restore as original which mean restore the warranty as well. Thanks Guys, just got my redmi note 4 SD and will install Resurrection Remix right away.

If you are planning to install custom rom asap then you should check out the bootloader unlock guide to be prepared for your bootloader unlock.. As unlocking the bootloader can be a time taking task...

Hi ak_baik
Hello.
I am from KL too and going to get one Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 (SD) soon. Can you share your success on step by step ......
1. How to unlock the bootloader?
2. How to root it?
3. How to install the TWRP and also the back up too?
4. Do you need to flash the latest Firmware (Upgrade your Miui 9) before doing the RR 5.8.5 10/25 stable version?
Currently, I have installed RR on my both Galaxy S2 GT-9100 and Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N9005) >>> Beautifully thumb Up!

Welcome to Xiaomi Family..
You can just browsing in Redmi Note 4 xda section for the tutorial.
1. Unlock bootloader (the most annoying part)
2. Install Twrp via fastboot
3. Flash Rom & Magisk or anything you prefer.
4. Done, that's it...
For miui i do not backup anything since brand new n nothing to backup and dont worry about warranty. You can restore back to original version by flashing stock rom from xiaomi then you can claim for warranty with no issue, i have done it before.

I just brought a Redmi Note 4 Indian Snapdragon version (4/64 GB variant). I want to flash custom rom. But I just don't know the process to do that. Is it necessary to Unlockbootloader and root the device before flashing a custom rom?? If no then what is the purpose of unlocking boot loader?
And additionally I want to know that flashing custom recovery void the warranty of Redmi devices?
Thanks in advance

Unlocked bootloader is must and should if you wanna install custom recovery / rom.
There are guides about unlocking bootloader, check again and apply for permissions.
Nope, rooting, flashing custom recovery and unlocking bootloader doesn't void warranty on mi devices.

Thank you so much. I applied it yesterday night. and fortunately got permission today unlike other users I did not waited long period to get that. But I've a problem now. The flashing tool doesn't Unlock the boot loader. It Verify the device and failed at unlocking. (Error at 99%) It says Current Account is not bound to this device in the "settings> Developer Options> Mi unlock states "
I've tried various forum to unlock it. But nothing works. Tried to click "Add account to device" in developer options. It shows me an error 86012 (and some chinese text) What do I do now????

8.0.0.xxx (Cxxx)
Huawei stopped giving unlock codes for unlocking. Anyway there is no point of unlocking bootloader, because there is no custom roms
To unlock bootloader just use:
https://www.dc-unlocker.com
DC Unlock app or HCU.
You need 4 credits, in my case I was on android 8 update already and it worked flawlessly!
I did it, because of root. Adaway/Magisk/Titanium Backup.

Klem.. You are wrong. There are a few roms available for the phone which, of course, require an unlocked bootloader. So. IF you have an unlock code, there are roms for international versions: US devices are limited at the moment. IF you don't have a code, then you are unable to flash anything.

Just keep in mind, If you will have some problems with Magisk. After flashing the Magisk in TWRP you are getting a bootloop, here is a solution:

I want to unlock my Poco F1 bootloader and install a custom rom in it and I want to know that will it void my warranty.
I massaged to Poco India support about this and they said that unlocking the bootloader will not void my warranty but if I install any custom rom then it will void my warranty.
When applying for any warranty issues u can reflash stock and go to service centre

Just unlocking bootloader wont void warranty. anyway even if flash custom roms and root your device, u can flash stock rom and relock bootloader using mi flash tool if u need to visit service center.
Still risky but worth it
Imagine the circumstances where your phone's display is dead or maybe your battery is faulty or you're just unable to boot for some reason. Then you're just screwed. The warranty is already void because you wanted to flash that new rom which imo is already miles better than MIUI. And now you've to pay full price for the battery or display or mb, even though it's been only 3 months since you bought it. Expect zero to minimum support from the companies when it comes to any type of flashing or customizing. Hence, every rom has this BIG disclaimer that it may or will void warranty and they can't do anything about it.
When it comes to flashing roms and kernels, you're completely responsible for everything you do. For me and afaik, most of the xda community don't really care about the warranty but for the minority of people who actually do, be ready to take that risk if you want that sweet Pixel like experience on your Poco F1.

OK bro, listen.
There's no way someone can know if you've rooted your phone after you reflash the Stock rom.
And about unlocking bootloader, you are applying for it and the mi itself is allowing you to do it, so no risk there; also you can relock your bootloader.

Yes it does bro.
There is a particular tweet from Alvin Tse clarifying what is covered in the warranty. He mentioned that the warranty covers even if the device is rooted, bootloader unlocked and customized. However, it will not cover customization related to overclocking of hardware in anyway will void the warranty. This cover but is not limited to CPU overclock, screen refresh rate increase and battery charge tweaks.
