Few Procedures I understood some were confusing, here are my questions.
My Phone details: Check attached hardware details, image format too please.
Unlocked bootloader, yesterday, THANK YOU VERY MUCH TO ALL XDA USERS.
1. Should i proceed with twrp + root 1 click, its way to easy and no confusions here.
.2. Should i proceed with magisk, Since on stock rom and just unlocked bootloader, unsure how to proceed here..
Please guide on best option, after doing this bit work, I have many purchased apps (thanks to XDA TEAM and all contributors) which I shall try on phone..
If satisfied, or wanna try custom ROMs, I will make another question..
Thanks and appreciate the volutary hard work of this great community.

Hi guys,
I'm from India, and I have the Redmi Note 3 Snapdragon 650 variant. I have successfully unlocked my bootloader via the official process using MiFlashUnlock tool. I am on MIUI Global Stable 7.3.2.0.
Now that I have unlocked my bootloader, I want to root my device, and I had a few questions.
1. What's the method of rooting. I read that I need to install TWRP. A link to the latest updated guide would be much appreciated.
2. After rooting, will I be able to get proper regular updates? If yes, will it unroot my device after the update? If yes, then what do I do?
All in all, I am looking to root my RN3 and keep getting proper OTA updates and still retain my root access.
Any help in this regards would be highly appreciated.
Thanx a lot in advance. Desperately waiting for a reply
Edit: The main reason for creating this thread is coz there is a lot of confusion right now as there are various methods to root RN3 and then there is a different way to do it if you've unlocked your bootloader UNOFFICIALLY.
With all this chaos, I just wanna know what's the correct procedure for me
+1 good question, i also want to know, see complete guide for ppl who unlocked officially ONLY.
You can receive OTA's, and you can download them, but you can't install them.
Also you should flash the official TWRP if you officially unlocked the bootloader. Be sure to download the universal boot image patches from the safe TWRP thread and also you can root from TWRP. When you open TWRP, it'll ask you if oyu want to root.
Use this recovery : http://en.miui.com/thread-282773-1-1.html , then you dont need flash modified boot.img everytime you flash miui roms.
After you flash OTA updates , your root access will be gone, so you need root again from twrp.

Exactly i m stuck here( kind of), cause this installation guide start like this.
" Reboot to twrp.
........
...........etc,etc.
Now it doesn't say how to flash twrp.
That alka.... author thinks/ want us to on twrp preinstalled. Help if possible to officially unlocked ppl
You have to flash recovery via fast boot

Thanx a lot for the replies guys.
Well, I wanna learn everything that's related to Redmi Note 3 flashing, rooting, etc.
Like, to install TWRP, why do we need to flash a modified boot.img file? Is this also required if we have UNLOCKED OFFICIALLY?
Also, @justinxfan @ddarshan - why won't it install the OTA? Nonetheless, after downloading that OTA zip, we can install the OTA zip using TWRP without losing any data, right? And then, of course, as you said, we can again gain root access via TWRP right?
By the way, for now, I am not interested in any roms. Am very happy with the current MIUI Global Stable ROM. Just want root access but also wanna learn
It will be awesome if someone can list the differences and what to do after official and unofficial unlocking methods. Few more questions, does flashing any miui rom via twrp after official method will relock the bootloader or it can be done only by edl method? Also, flashing by edl method will remove twrp right?
Seriously guys, please help us out
if u unlock bootloader unofficially ,it will void your warranty but official unlock will not.

+1 for cofface's TWRP. I'm on officially unlocked and rooting works by flashing the latest SuperSU.zip through TWRP. I am not sure if Global Stable even allows root though, since I'm on Global Dev. I can also recommend going to xiaomi.eu ROM when you are unlocked. It's rootable and based on the latest version of MIUI without the chinese bloat. A good filler until a stable version of CM13 is released.
Hello!
I apologize in advance for being a noobie at this.
I'm currently running LOS 14 - 2017 05 03, and want to switch to Umang96's custom LOS. I've read I need to flash a new MIUI Firmware, but I have some questions before I do all this.
Do I have to flash the firmware before I flash the new ROM ? Or can they be flashed together ?
Do I have to wipe anything else than the usual before flashing ?
Will the bootloader lock again after I flash the new MIUI Firmware ? (I've currently unlocked it the official way)
Thanks in advance.
The "New MIUI firmware"=Developer version MIUI 7.5.4 firmware by The Strix for Redmi Note 3 Pro/Snapdragon in Official Lineage OS for Kenzo (google it).
To update firmware:
- Long+safe+cleanest method: Flash miui 7.5.4 fastboot rom (again, google it) for your device (kenzo/kate). Then, unlock officially.
- Quick method: Flash firmware.zip from 1st page of official lineage os thread for kenzo (WARNING: may cause bootloop for some users especially if you have no idea what you have done to your device).
Flash the firmware before flashing rom.zip. I have no idea what do you mean by flashing together. BTW you don't have to flash firmware when you update rom.
Wipe everything besides where you've stored your rom.zip (either internal storage or sd storage). I recommend using latest official twrp to prevent wiping important parts of your phone (some users are using unofficial twrps with option to wipe imei... just don't use it since you said you are a noobie)
Since you unlocked it officially, updating firmware shouldn't relock bootloader. There's a chance of relocking though (buggy MiFlash, flashing random firmwares from the internet and maybe other stuff)
If you have any future questions better post it in the thread than start a new Q&A thread. I don't think any users will spend time in the Q&A section. Umang's los discussion thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/unofficial-lineageos-substratum-radon-t3592853
Umang just started a new thread for his rom: https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/unofficial-lineageos-substratum-radon-t3592853

Thank you for your answer!
By "flashing together" I was refering to the TWRP's option to flash multiple zips together.
Also, I will refrain from making new threads in the future, thanks for the tip.
Again, thanks for the info you provided. Much appreciated.

Just boot into twrp, wipe system, data and caches, flash firmware from los OP + Umang96 rom + gapps, wipe caches.
Recently i install lineage os unfortunatly i rooted by systemless .it patches boot.img
I want to go to complete stock rom . how to do it ?
So many people are saying some errors
Please tell me complete procedure
You can get the stock rom(s) here, if you want to revert to stock I suggest using the Fastboot method (see link below)
http://en.miui.com/a-234.html
since I don't know what device you have I cant help you pick a rom, but you can choose from Stable rom or Developer, also make sure to select the correct CPU variant
Hi everyone,
Well, I came to you because actually I'm out of idea.
I was since 3 years on custom ROM (CM and Lineage OS) and due to substratum, I had a bootloop.
My problem is quite particular, after a total clean of my device and flashing the stock ROM, custom recovery cause me some trouble.
Whatever I try (CWM touch 6 or TWPR 3.1.1), I can't flash custom ROM (Lineage OS 14.1), TWPR or CWM crash 1 second after the flash command and reboot, with disable touchscreen and even by using old navigation way and try again, same problem.
Tried also to disable file signature check but no effect.
Quick summary about what I did:
- Device: Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505)
- ROM stock used: I9505XXUHOJ2 ( the build which is based on the CF-Root file i used)
- Tried to install CWM by ROM Manager and ODIN (v3.09)
- TWPR installed by TWPR App using file in .img and not the second option (tar.img) for LTE Internationnal Qualcomm.
-Checked the root before last attemptwith root checker and it was ok.
In advance thanks for your help and I really hope it's not too serious.
By the way, sorry for my english, it's not my native language

I don't have this variant but, this looks like it may be a recovery issue so your best bet is to post this question within the following Official TWRP thread for your device.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2468187
If it's a LineageOS issue, then your best bet is to post this question within the following Official LineageOS thread for your device.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3573386
If all else fails, you can try posting your question within the following Q&A thread that's specific to your device.

Good Luck!

I DO NOT provide support via PM unless asked/requested by myself. PLEASE keep it in the threads where everyone can share.
Thanks for advice
I will post in the S4 forum section hoping someone already know a fix or a way to dodge this problem.
But I have small questions before:
I saw some threads about CWM and TWPR recovery "for" I9505, is there a huge difference between them and their basic version ?
And finally, I saw some threads on TWPR 3.+ issue for some devices.
An installation of an older version of TWPR or CWM could be a good way to explore the problem source ? (the stock ROM I use even after updates is quite old in terms of Android versions and patch)
Have a good day

Sorry had a bug and got a double post
@jcadduono
I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to customizing my phone via recovery and stuff. I know the basic stuff so as to how to install custom ROMs or gaining root access.
I know that LazyFlasher is needed if you're going to flash MIUI after installing TWRP.
But I'm looking for answers to these questions:
Difference between lazyflasher-no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip, no-verity-opt-encrypt and no-verity-force-encrypt. (If there is any other variant then please include that in your answer)
Can I flash any version on any device when it is needed or is it device specific?
Is there any official website?
When to flash the file?
I own multiple Xiaomi devices so answers to these questions will be helpful.
