Hi. Firstly, You are on the wrong thread. You should have posted this in Q&A Troubleshooting section. 2ndly, MIUI6 is still very buggy, even on stable version and it is advised to flash it clean using fastboot install method. Updating through updater will 80% cause problems all of the time.
For solution, u can try either
1. Use performance mode instead of balanced mode in setting----->battery with even higher battery drain or
2. Downgrade back to MIUI5 v21. It is THE BEST MIUI Rom for redmi note 4G.
Finally managed to officially unlock bootloader, but since I started that process over 2 weeks ago, a lot has happened in the Rom and development forum. I was originally going for CM13, but I'm not longer sure if that's a good idea.
I mostly use my phone as a music player, and it runs most of the day while I'm at work. I occasionally send calls and text messages.
I got the RMN3 for the battery and significantly larger screen than what I had before. Phone plans in canada are god awful and as such I got literally no data on my plan, so outside of home wifi, I got no internet on it.
The reason I want a custom rom is mainly to remove bloat and improve battery life, and maybe add a few functions/ behaviours.
I don't really care about the fingerprint sensor, should it not work, but having the camera non-functional is a no-go.
I'm not really interested in constantly having to flash an update on my phone. I just want one good, stable rom with little to no bloat that will do what I'll ask it to, with a good battery life, without crashing. Updating once every month or so would be reasonable. I heard that Android 7(+) had some battery life improvements (Doze?) so I'm conflicted as to rom and android versions.
I'm pretty new to Android, and I'm completely overwhelmed by the many different types of roms, along with the many different versions of the same rom (Example: many CM14/14.1 builds).
There's a lot of guides, but most of them seem out of date.
Device: Global Dev, Kenzo
Any suggestions? (If possible, please also include which version of TWRP you would recommend)
I personnally own the Kate version and flashed the official CM13 ROM built for Kenzo on it.
Everything is working fine for me, including the fingerprint sensor and the camera.
I also use the phone to listen to music all day at work and it worked really well with good battery life.
About the TWRP version I used, honestly I don't remember very well since I tried a few and the reason was something to do with the Kate device I believe, so you may not have to use the same version of TWRP.

My recommendations for you :
Recovery - Alka TWRP
Rom - Resurrection Remix 5.7.4 (rock stable, no bugs) https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=385035244224385843
Kernel - Radon 2.6.5
I Was A Motorola Moto G 3rd Generation User & From The Day I Got The Motorola Moto G 3rd Generation I Was Using The ( Nexus Experience ) ROM & It's The Most Perfectly Stable ROM You Will Ever Use On Any Device & I Got The Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro Yesterday & I Am Waiting For The Permission Of Unlocking Then I Will Try The Custom ROM's For This Phone If You Want The Best Stable ROM's For Any Phone
It Goes Like This
1st Stable ROM : Stock ROM
2nd Stable ROM : CyanogenMod
3rd Stable ROM : Nexus Experience
And It's Only My Opinion But I Tried All Of The Custom ROM's For The Motorola Moto G 3rd Generation & I Didn't Found A Better ROM Than
( CyanogenMod , Nexus Experience ) , It's Just My Opinion
& Here Is The Link For The Nexus Experience ROM ( http://nxrom.us/redminote3pro.html )
nx rom...combined with any custom kernel here. you won't disapointed with those rom. stable, fast & light.
Hi all,how about gaming?which rom recommend?

any stable rom with interactive gov
Hi, you mentioned stock ROM (not Cyanogen or Nexus experience, just stock). Where could I get that from?
I'm on beanstalk ROM (android 7.1) loving it!
Try krexus-CAF!
You could go for the official build of RR with Radon kernel
welcome to the race, mate
well if you want to improve battery life you are recomended to flash AOSP-Based roms . miui and cm-based roms have battery drain issue (i can't explain why, but i can say that because i tried them)
my recomendation would be Cardinal AOSP
try rr remix 5.7.4 with radon kernel...
I found the same answers in old thread (2016) (too much outdated considering that Oreo is out too for RN3pro).
I would like to ask the question for KATE (and i think that will be the same of kenzo RN3pro).
I'm waiting for the last stable miui9 , but i'm thinking to unlock the device (kate .. with all the problems related to the official unlock i didn't get it). In few days i will try miui 9 and i will apply again with a new account for try the official unlock, otherwise i will go on unofficial.
In the past week I did a survey in the miui official forum and the 43.63% (226 votes) of user will leave miui for custom rom in the near future , mainly because the new miui9 will be based on MM. I think that the number will be bigger if Miui9 will be worst or the same of Miui8 regarding performance. I read in that topic about how good are LineageOS , Resurrection Remix , and the NitrogenOS . And how good is Radon kernel.
My question is for all of you who have had the honor of trying different Roms :
Which custom rom + custom kernel combination is the best for Redmi note 3 Pro SE currently?
the question is about:
~ most stable rom (main device and should work perfectly)
~ better performance with better battery backup
~ best game performance (in particular playing Marvel future fight that lags even with ultra low setting)
Thanks in advance to those who will illuminate my path.

Thanks Noter.
Before posting i searched and i found only mainly old thread . In the latest one (from august) the answer is Los + radon (gaming config) .
Is it still the best configuration ?
I read about the good benchmark score with NitrogenOS , but i don't know if it is so stable!
EDIT: i found a post on december about : AOSIP 6.3 saying that is best for gaming. Someone can confirm ?

I have a Kenzo. Mi config is:
RR + Radon Kernel + Magisk 14 + Dolby Atmos.
This config gives me 8 hours of SoT with a 1 hour playing Heroes Evolved, and without playing gives me 9-10 hours of SoT with battery performance profile.
Why i choosed RR???... Cuz that rom has a lot options to customize the system (the best rom for customize all), great support and a big comunity (with facebook and g+ groups) , monthly updates and a full support for sustrabtum theme engine.

you need to be very active in the miui forum, until you get the Diamond member degree, then with a Chinese proxy you have to ask for the unlock permission in the miui china page. you do not need to wait for the SMS to arrive being diamond memeber, it's instantaneous. then go back to the same link and download the application to unlock the phone. You go to developer options (I did it from the stable global rom with no problems) activate unlock OEM and enter the option that says link MI account with this phone. once linked (if throwing error uses a Chinese VPN) the only thing you should do is wait 72hs clock and voala, you can unblock without problems. I took only 3 days to do it, because I was using miui for 6 months until one day I confirmed a moderator who did not have android 7 for RN3 and it warmed me up and unlocked it ... I became an official beta tester ...
You can also do it without being a member, but I recommend you write some post to see that you exist as a user and then ask for permission. in that case, wait a few days to see if the SMS arrives and keep trying to enter the link where you ask for the unlocking. when it gives you the option to download MIUI unlock tool means that you have permission, do not forget to bind the phone to your account in developer options or it will not work.
I'm currently using Citrus CAF with shadow kernel on a 2GB Kate officially unlocked in one day, and I can't be happier, I have tried a lot of ROMs in combination with various kernels and IMHO my actual combo it's the sweetspot, Oreo works great but there's some random bugs and performance issues here and there, nougat is kinda more mature in some aspects, and regarding custom kernels for me Agni and radon are sh*tty most of the time, even with the "just wait for xx kernel magic to work" thing that never happened to we. Meanwhile shadow, elementalX and francokernel are the ones that actually were better than the ones bundled with the ROMs and actually felt as if something improved on my device

thanks for your explanation . I'm now a gold member (just checked) , but i applied 8 months ago (when i was registered since few month on miui forum) for the unlock permission and i received the SMS after few days . I tried to unlock the phone with official way too trying for several months , but probably they locked my permission . I tried waiting weeks and months too but i can't bound the account.
On miui forum a user told me that now the best way is create a new account because mine is blocked regarding the unlock , but before i have to disconnect the phone from my main account, and then apply again with a new account .
A lot of people solved doing like this .
So i want to install the miui 9 and apply again .. so in the while i can try this last MM version or miui .

Thanks for your answer : on miui forum they told me that francokernel is really good for battery backup.
I opened this thread here because as you can imagine every user said something different about what is the best . .. So i would like to understand a bit more.
As i said , i'm interested more in gaming performance and i don't know how much a kernel could influence this .

Nos 8.1 + radon 6.2 battery backup, impressive
I just made account on miui, connected with my device, applied for unlock, never received confirmation, but I could unlock it next day. I still can do it...done it many times.
You just need to install adb drivers in PC and MiFlash and download mi unlock tool and unlock it.
I guess it should be done on developer version, not sure if you can unlock on stable.
For best performance and stability I would recommend last Nitrogen 8.1, magisk 15.x for root and kernel adiutor or ex kernel manager, then you can apply settings as you wish and UV it a bit if you like. You can try other kernels such as shadow, agni...
Screenshots are from 26/12 and 28/12 build
Using Dirty unicorn no 11.7.2 by neonkat over a week now . didn't flashed any mods or anything just magisk and I get average of 8 hours sot . and gaming performance is good I play clash royale and Mobile legend bang bang a lot. Have moderate customization and performs well with stock kernel .

Do you have KATE ? I tried the official unlock , i received confirmation and i followed all the official guides for do it , but me and a lot of kate users (as you can read in official forum ) had the same problem unlocking it . I think it just some problem with their servers regarding this device . I tried with both beta version and stable on miui 8 .. no way!
i will try soon .. with miui 9

what theme are you using?
I installed the latest android 11. LineageOS 18.1 rom. on a SM-N910f. it's spotless. it uses just over 1.1 gb in ram! its very clean! i would really like if ANYONE could instruct me how to get a kernel or provide one, that allow to me to push the CPU from 2650mhz to 2800mhz or higher. and the GPU from 600mhz to 800 mhz on android 11! it can handle those numbers. i benchmarked them on older stock roms, i use this device for gaming and some light Vr sessions. it really needs the extra performance. and that extra performance is only available for old Android 6 roms. that are filled with stock apps! All i see on XDA continuously are just debloated roms on the latest android versions. with kernels that are focussed on battery life mainly! but none... not 1 focuses on giving the ability for the SM Note4 to go above its max stock frequenties!
developers why not ALWAYS give the user the ability if he wishes to go higher on CPU/GPU stock frequenties, on a rooted device with a kernel editor?
Google Cardboard VR apps also dont work. on linenage os android 10 or 11. for the SM-NOTE 4. the phone sensors are not being detected! by Google VR services.
however lineageos 17,1 Andoird 10. google cardboard vr does work just fine with an ancient! SM Galaxy 4
In android 11 permissions are reworked and as you may know, google doesnt support its own cardboad and daydream anymore so youre out of luck with android 11, to tweak the device gpu and cpu, you have to build youre own rom (i assume lineage os 17.1) from stock. Dokumentation how to do that, you may find on the official Lineage OS page, xda and github.
