Do you think there is any chance of getting the higher refresh rate mods working with this rom at all? TIA
I'm a little confused with the instructions, Following instruction number 1 and 2, I need to check for the OTA update and then press install button but I don't see any install or update button as there is no OTA update available right now. am I missing something?

The instructions are to maintain root when new OTAs arrive!
For now you don't need to refer them!

You need to unlock the bootloader first, then install magisk manager and flash the patched boot image via fastboot mode.

About maintaing root with an OTA. I assume you are talking about installing it via TWRP right? And when you say don't reboot (step 3) you mean after installing the OTA right? Also the option on step 5 will it be availble in the TWRP when I will try to flask magisk?
Thanks a lot
Edit - I use the TWRP from wzsx150 and I am on the 9.7.27 developer rom from xiaomi.eu

The process mentioned in OP doesn't require TWRP, the option 5 will be available in the magisk manager itself!
If you're a advanced user and have flashed TWRP you do not need to follow this method, just flash the magisk zip and you're ready to go!
Regards,
acervenky
Oh ok thanks alot!! Last thing should I reboot after installing the OTA via TWRP in order to flash the magisk or not as you mention in your method/guide? If this is off topic sorry

Once you install the OTA and reboot you will lose TWRP as it will be replaced by the stock recovery!
Simply flash TWRP back and flash the magisk zip and you should be good to go!

Yes you'll lose your data during the bootloader unlock process, best way would be to backup all of your data on your PC first.
The only precaution is that you should be on Indian Firmware 10.3.3!

Great work! I cannot fully install magisk as I get bootloop everytime I install the zip in the manager (then have to wipe data etc). Im assuming this way I can say goodbye to TWRP and have a fully functional magisk
However, this would also work on chinese phone flashed with Indian/Global ROM yes?

Keeping it short. This is a simple way to root your device. You will need a computer and a data cable for this.
Objectives :
Have root using Magisk
Be able to install OTA from the settings without bootloops
Avoid boot loop
Very important :
This will work with ANY Xiaomi phone, and should work with ANY ANDROID phone as well. The difference between phones would be in where you can get your boot image from.
Your phone has to have an unlocked bootloader
Your phone has to have stock recovery. TWRP WILL cause bootloop for root and/or OTA updates from system.
I like to have root with magisk and don't want to install TWRP because I want to be able to install OTA from system without boot loops. This guide will help you achieve this with ease.
Steps:
Download the ROM full zip file. This could be the ROM ALREADY installed on your phone or you are updating your phone to it. Here is a video of one way to get your ROM file.
https://youtu.be/KsxHial1v1U
Open the file and extract "boot.img" on your phone or Computer.
Move the boot.img file to your phone
Download and install the latest Magisk official manager app from here: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/manager-v7.4.0/MagiskManager-v7.4.0.apk
Open Magisk manager and click install then "select and patch a file" like in this video
https://youtu.be/USHcCMYlexM
Copy the Patched image from the download folder to your computer adb/fastboot folder
Reboot your phone into fastboot (press and hold power and vol down) and connect it to the computer
Flash that patches image file using fastboot
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
fastboot reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Open Magisk manager and complete the installation if needed. The app will prompt you for action.
Enjoy
Update May 2020
Hello again,
Sorry for being away for so long. Here are some of the things I have noticed people are confused with and need to make them clear:
This method works for ANY Android phone. As long as you have the Correct boot.img and can unlock the bootloader
MAKE SURE 100% you have the correct boot.img file for your CURRENT ROM
MAKE 100% SURE, the boot.img file you get from the FULL ROM zip file, not an OTA update zip file
Make sure you check the date and time of the "magisk_patched.img" file to make sure that is the one you made
Make sure you use the LATEST magisk manager
Make sure you open magisk after flashing the magisk_patched.img as boot image. Magisk manager will tell you if there is another step needed, just click yes and it will be done in seconds
Make sure to enable "Hide Magisk" to allow you to have your BANK apps working as well as security checks
If any app you use gives you an error "YOU ARE Rooted bla bla bla" Use magisk manager to hide the root for this specific app (in the settings)
That's all I can remember, good luck

No, bootloader has to be unlocked.
@Kiwironic followed your guide and worked very well, although I had to wipe data through the stock recovery to get the phone to boot, I believe that's just how newer Xiaomi phones work. I do have one question though, now that I'm rooted with stock recovery, would I be able to install OTA updates? I'm assuming I would of course lose root and have to redo the process from scratch if that's the case.

I had root on MIUI10 and updated the ROM to MIUI11 then did my root again the way mentioned and did NOT have to wipe. You can get OTA anyway, it will try the update first, it will fail, then it download and install a full ROM zip automatically. You have to wait for it to do that twice, that's all. The first boot after the update takes some time.
@Kiwironic First, thank you so your simple guide!
Can this cause bootloop on my device? If yes, can I simply flash the original boot.img to boot without any data loss?
Also another question: my device is rootless and bootloader unlocked, so my Google Pay doesn't work. When installing Magisk it goes back to work immediately or I have to do something to work?

If you flash the full rom, chances of bootloop is minimal. And should have stock experience except for being unlocked.
I got bootloop, using indian global V11.0.2.0.
After flashing patched boot, it gets bootloop recovery, only way is to wipe all data and reboot
After booting up and opeing magisk it shows a recommendation to install some ZIP
Accepting the recommendation results in bootloop,
Rejecting the recommendation and trying to Install > Direct Install results in bootloop as well

Do you have stock recovery or TWRP? Which version of Magisk are you using?
I have patched my boot stock image, installed full ROM, then flashed the patched boot image. Magisk did not show any recommendation installation.
There are a few guides online on how to deal with Magisk Bootloop without the need to wipe data.

TWRP 3.3.1-8, magisk 20.1
Patching boot image with magisk wasn't a problem. The Superuser itself works normally, module doesn't. The magisk manager suggested to download additional files for the magisk to be working properly.
I'm on MIUI 11.0.1 Global
Was TWRP the cause in the fist place?

On first installation MM asks to download what it needs e.g. to verify SafetyNet. Allow and there is no problem about. TWRP is generally not needed to install Magisk. Things are documented in Magisk guides

Yes, as the title suggests "without TWRP". The reason is, you cannot install OTA and magisk easily without using the stock recovery. Any attempt to update OTA or use any recovery script on the phone will result in a boot loop.
The solution to get out of the boot loop is simple. Actually a couple of solutions.
One, flash your stock recovery, or
Two, flash a full ROM that includes the stock recovery.
No need to wipe data
That's the only reason I made this post and the other about OTA on root. I don't like to use TWRP because I want OTA install without boot loop. At the same time I want root. Hence the solutions I provided

I've tried flashing magisk via recovery and didn't work, the same bootloop. Here's the thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-9t/how-to/guide-miui-11-v11-0-1-0-pfjmixm-rooted-t3997299
I thought this might be a working alternative.
Gotta try installing magisk with stock recovery then, and if it still didn't work, well, more research for me..

You have to understand the requirements :
- stock recovery
- install magisk manager app
- patch the boot image for your stock ROM (same version on your phone)
- flash that Patched boot image.
- reboot
- done, that's magisk installed
Unlocking Bootloader1. Make sure you have a sim and active mobile data. Then go to about phone tap build number 7-8 times. After that go to advanced settings > developer options > turn on OEM unlocking and then check if this device is secure and click add account and device.
2. Download Mi unlock tool from here. Extract it and paste it in C:/unlock. or else your device won't be recognized for unlocking.
3. Open Mi unlock tool and then enter the Mi account which was on your device. Put your device in fastboot mode by pressing vol- and power and then connect to PC. Press unlock and if it tells you to wait you have no other option but to wait. If your mi flash tool shows connect your device even after you have connected it. Follow this guide here.
4. After you have unlocked your bootloader reboot your phone.
Flashing TWRP and Rooting via magisk
1. Download this TWRP image here. Thanks to the original developer mauronofrio.
2. Download adb and fastboot tools here and install it.
3. Now put your phone in fastboot mode and connect it with your pc. Now where you have downloaded the TWRP file rename it to TWRP.img and open a CMD window there if you don't know how just google.
4. Type the following commands
1. fastboot devices
2. fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
3. fastboot reboot recovery.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
5. Your phone will boot into TWRP now. But TWRP will be overwritten by stock miui recovery to stop that you need to flash Magisk. Download this zip move it to internal storage then flash by tapping on install and swipe to flash. Reboot your device. Reboot to recovery again to check if TWRP is present.
Now your device is rooted
OR
Flash latest OrangeFox Recovery if you don't want magisk.
Flashing A rom
1. Download.
2. Flash.
3 Format Data.
Done
Feel free to ask any questions. And don't point a finger at me for messing your device.

I've unlocked the bootloader using the unlock tool and waited for 7 days,
But i rooted the device using a different method where i patched a boot.img and flashed that to the device.
Will this method still work for me as I'm already rooted but just want TWRP so i can flash other ROMs.. The post says you have to flash magisk from the (temporary) TWRP for the TWRP to stay as the recovery..
Will the magisk on my phone and the magisk installed here collide?
I just want TWRP so i can switch to a custom rom, so any input is appreciated!!

You can flash twrp and then check if it persists. If not flash magisk again their is no thing as magisk colliding lol. Just make sure you flash a newer version. And if nothing works flash stock rom and then twrp.
If you have the stock boot IMG flash it and then intsall twrp and magisk.

Nevermind.. i got it to work pretty easily..
I have twrp on this device and Pixel Experience ROM and it's working all fine..
But there's this one thing where when booting to recovery, it asks me to input a password for User(0) when i try to input anything it says password failed..
From reading the log, it says it's for decrypting data(8f I'm not mistaken)
Is this important? Do i need to decrypt it?
Currently the ROM works fine with no errors, so I'm not gonna bother, but would still like to know what this "decrypting" thing is..

Yes, If you use a lock screen enter that password it will be decrypted. You will have to format data if you decide to flash any other rom anyway.

Hey buddy, thank you for this quick step-by-step guide. I flash ROMs since 2012 and you know what? It helped me the same. Having all stuff needed for go from stock to custom concentrated in one place (plus some useful tip like the Magisk flash at the end) it's always useful and time-saving. Thank you
2 Micro-notes about fastboot btw:
- write 'fastboot (with lowered 'f'): it may confuse some newbie
- it's 'reboot' instead of 'boot'
Hey,
Has someone figured out how to root the phone after bootloader unlock? I saw some attempts in the GSI thread but it wolud be nice if somebody who done it publish a guide. [here or in the new thread]
This way it will be easier to find for future people to follow.
hi, i couldn't find a stock boot.img so far. seems we will have to wait some more time to be able to download latest firmware as full rom to get the boot.img, which we can then patch with magisk.
eagerly waiting for it, as i cannot hide my unlocked bootloader so far and some apps refuse to work now (also safetynet check fails)

My reply was confusing, and I wasn't actually replying to you. Sorry about that. I don't know how or where to download the boot.img.
I am trying to ask the community if we need to factory reset again when we flash the patched boot.img. Or if the reset we did during unlock is the only reset needed.

I am trying to ask the community if we need to factory reset again when we flash the patched boot.img. Or if the reset we did during unlock is the only reset needed.

unlocking the bootloader means to do a reset. flashing the boot.img does not cause a reset.
you just have root and working magisk after flashing and reboot

Well then, now I have joined you in the hunt for this bloody boot.img

I am not respondible if you brick your device as there is no full rom download to revert all this.
i have done this:
- installed magisk on the phone and transfered the attached boot.img to the phone.
- patched it with magisk and transfered it to pc
Flashing:
- Unlock bootloader
- Reboot into bootloader
- Download https://dl.google.com/developers/android/qt/images/gsi/vbmeta.img
- `fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img`
- `fastboot flash boot magisk_patched_boot.img`
rebootet and root worked but wifi/bt was broken due some version conflict
Fix for wifi/bt for me was:
- unpack vendor.xz
- reboot to bootloader
- `fastboot reboot fastboot`
- `fastboot flash vendor vendor`
- reboot
My Build Version is DN2103_11_A.08.
Thanks to @phhusson for his help and for his files!

Found in this thread. Hope it will work for further updates.
I want to access /data/system/users//settings_ssaid.xml to know what my game unique id is.
But after some research i learned that i have to root to able to get there but i have almost zero knowledge about it.
Are there any guide to root Redmi Note 10 from the scratch? Thanks.

Hi, I'm on official global ROM 12.5.3.0 RKGMIXM
And i turned on OEM Unlocking in developer mode yesterday (Which is confuse me a little a guide said i have to wait for 7 days for this but mine is nothing it's just switched to on)
OEM Unlocking is only one of the steps, but it does not unlock the bootloader. File a request with Xiaomi.
unlock bootloader
i recommend only booting to twrp, not flashing it
flash magisk 23
hide magisk

Why do you recommend to only booting to TWRP instead of flashing it?

because the twrp developer instruction is to booting , not flashing

Aside of that instruction, actually is it 'dangerous' if we install the TWRP? What 'bad things' would/may happen if we install it? (Because I see some guides about installing it on RN10, like this one for example, and I was almost followed that guide).
Risk of bootloop

Risk of bootloop and fastboot loop... because this twrp is modded to be booted and then flashed (you can found the option in advanced)
One time i faced a fastboot loop once i flashed directly the twrp , that's why i recommend booting it first and then , flashing

Yes, I mean that, (booting it first then flashing,.. (the TWRP right?).. I think the guide (which the youtube link I attached above) is also told to do that, right? (Or do I misunderstand this?)

Please confirm these;
*So we can:
Use TWRP only temporarily, only to root the phone (by flashing Magisk v23),
and then,
back to using the stock recovery on our RN10 afterward,
even if the RN10 is already rooted?
**If the answer for my question above is yes, then (in RN10 condition of Unlocked Boot Loader, Rooted, Stock MIUI & Stock Recovery) ;
Would we still get official OTA Update from Xiaomi (and can download and install the update- as how it's like before rooting the phone)?
Thank you in advance
It's an unnecessarily complicated procedure. Just flash a modified boot.img for your Miui using fastboot from your PC. If you don't have the ability to modify the boot.img on another rooted phone yourself, request a modified boot.img with the exact update version of your Miui here.

Thanks again, (and maybe I will try your suggestion later).. but (sorry)... your reply doesn't answer my questions.
(I think my questions are very clear and probably very easy to be answered by someone who has experience/knowledge about it (like you?).. no?)
Forgive my nooby questions.
But I really want to know as much as I can (especially about the answer for some questions I have inside my head about the matter, like I asked above),.. before executing doing something about my phone.
oops... I'm sorry for double send
In the past I rooted Miui and then continued to get OTA updates. However, this cannot be confirmed for all versions of Miui. Each new update changes the phone software and so what worked before may not work today.

Hi, I'm unlocked my phone and installed the orange fox it's the custom recovery right? Because it say so.
If yes, By Flash Magisk ZIP how to do that? Please explain the detailed steps, Thanks.
First of all, I would like to point out that Magisk (root) is a security risk. Without understanding the issues, the phone is more easily exploitable.
To install, just download the magisk file with the ZIP extension. In recovery, select the install option and select this file. Once installed, exit recovery and boot the system. Once the system boots, use magisk and complete the installation it requests.

the answer above is right ... but i would suggest to flash Orange Fox zip and then Magisk zip... to avoid problems
isn't there decrypt.zip for RN10?
How to decrypt this phone?
I usually did that along with rooting with my android phones before this.
Edit:
Update:
It's ok now I understand how, after watching this video.

You need tool to unlock your bootloader, you can use a mi unlock tool you need to wait 7days, or if you want to unlock that instantly you need other tool
TWRP will be updated after I successfully done my experiment
is just need flash a or b anyone is ok ? or need flash both ?
How to backup imei?
Is there any way to flash TWRP permanently?
"With the new TWRP 3.6.0, things will be a little different. After you temporarily boot the TWRP image using the ‘Fastboot boot’ command, you will be able to see a Flash Current TWRP in the Advanced section of custom recovery."
Is this working?

Hi. Thanks for the development
I have a question. Assuming that I've flashed this twrp, how do I properly backup the entire phone, I mean which one will be selected in backup option . I want to flash some custom roms and restore the created backup if something goes wrong

NO advisable, Do not try this way!
I have a bad experience with this method, I have a Note 8 pro (Begonia), i did a rom backup with twrp, then flashed other custom roms, after few tested on various roms, i decided to get back to Miui rom, thinking of the easy way, I restored its Miui backup images via twrp, the phone bricked. In the end, I had to sent to xiaomi service center for repair.
I believe that was due to different version of Preloader of rom crashed with TWRP.
Of course, with some "MTK auth bypass softwares" available today, you may take the risk if you wish.
Could anyone provide here any already backup of Chopin stock recovery share it here, please?
Edit: Since there is no recovery partition, You had just re-flashing "boot.img" by twrp then you will restore stock recovery and that operation will also let you lose your root.
