Don't flash TWRP. It has mounting issues. Flash Orange Fox directly via fastboot.

Firstly you need to officially unlocked the bootloader then Fellow the instruction to flash twrp: http://en.miui.com/thread-296053-1-1.html, after that changed to alka twrp for flashing official miui rom, root and installed exposed framework by solarwarez.

How to port cyanogenmod for kenzo to kate devices

Hi guys, can anyone tell me how to do it? I have a kate device here, and I'm dying to have cyanogenmod installed on it. Wish there's a non-too-complicated way to get it done.
Update:
Official CyanogenMod 13 for Kenzo works well on Kate too! Everything seems good right now.
Hey can you please Dump your device with twrp and share it with us so we can try to unlock Band 20
Edit: i think banmeifyouwant did it the others way around. Guess you have to repartition your internal memory to have the Layout of kenzo. Also someone in miui Forum posted he has flashed kenzo fastboot to his Kate device but Radio is not working anymore.

Can you please advise where you got TWRP from? Without TWRP, there's no CM or even root for XMIUI and MIUI Tweaks.
Also looking for a compatible TWRP method for the Kate/prime version. Been scouring the net for hours but can't find anything concrete

Cofface seems to be a reasonable choice. Otherwise, Alka.

Ditto. Mine is due tomorrow. Thought I'd try and do some revision before flashing but the info I'm finding isn't quite enough for me to gain the confidence to try... May I follow you and feed off your knowledge?

I'll be flashing Cofface TWRP and Xposed, but not CM at this stage. If that's helpful to you, I'll post how I go (if I ever get my hands on it).
Hy guys.. My de vice is kate. But running cm13 fine, stable and no bugs! Please check baseband for confirm, this device is Kate.

Perhaps you could post more info. Which TWRP did you use and did you have to modify partition sizes, etc? Or was it as simple as flashing the firmware file and then the ROM itself?

Hi guys! I helped him to get this working. All things started with He didn't know that him device is Kate in first time and flashed Kenzo 7.1.8 Lollipop with modified emmc... in MiFlash to get unofficial bootloader unlock with fastboot oem unlock-go command. He got 5.1.1 Kenzo ROM working but without SIM Card detected due to flashed Kenzo modem. After it, he just flashed latest ALKA TWRP with all partitions support in fastboot and flashed latest CM nightly + GAPPS + CM13-Radios zip. It boots fine but with NO SIM Card detected too and unknown Baseband version. Don't worry. To solve it, just boot in fastboot and flash Kate modem from Kate MIUI Fastboot ROM and voila, fully working CM in Kate device! You guys with flashed TWRP can try to flash CM ROM without modify Partition sizes because CM use less space then MIUI and Kate partition sizes are same from Kenzo. Only system is bigger than Kenzo system but it works, prof of it is flashing Kenzo ROM in Kate with MiFlash don't give error like flashing Kate ROM in Kenzo.

Thanks for the info. What does flashing CM13-Radios.zip do? If we don't flash that, would it leave Kate's default modem active? Would we need to flash the Kate modem each time we install a new nightly? Having to connect the phone to the computer every time would be a pain.

You can try it. Download CM last nightly and copy to internal storage, unlock your bootloader officially, flash ALKA TWRP recovery, go to backup and select ENTIRE PARTITIONS and do a full backup of your phone then wipe SYSTEM + DATA + CACHE + DALVIK CACHE, flash CM13 + GAPPS and reboot. This will keep your modem and all firmware partitions save. If it don't work and you get bootloop, boot in ALKA TWRP again, click in RESTORE, UNCHECK ONLY FIRMWARE PARTITION and start the restore process. This will boot MIUI again. Then start the process again but now this time, flash CM13-Radios.zip after GAPPS flash and try to boot it. When it boot, restart in bootloader and flash Kate modem and you will get fully working ROM. Or you can replace non-hlos.bin with Kate on in CM13-Radios.zip before flash it.
And no, you don't need to flash Kate modem at each new nightly because CM ROM don't comes with Modem files in it. After you get fully working CM nightly, you will get all OTA's without need a PC connect.

Hy, please call us...how did you unlock the bootloader from your Kate? Offical or Unofficial?
Which TWRP do you use?
Which CM13 do you flash on your Kate? The official CM13 for Kenzo?
A little instructions would be so good...Thanks!
@andersonaragao would you suggest a forum for unofficial bootloader unlock please? I'm getting network dropouts and need to flash the modems but xiaomi can take up to 7 and a half years to send an unlock code

Unfortunately, to unlock bootloader unofficialy in Kate, you need to flash 5.1.1 MIUI ROM for Kenzo with modified bootloader. I think the better is stay with your stock ROM and wait more for unlock code.

Ok. Will do. A factory reset fixed the network issue so I can't live with that. Cheers
1. All Recoveries built for Kenzo will work without any issue on Kate as well, You can just stay with official TWRP or CM Recovery as you're pleased.
2. You can always flash the official rom back with MiFlash in EDL mode, if you happen to brick your phone.
Official ROM for Kate
Stable: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V7.3.9.0.M...DE_20160523.0000.23_6.0_global_f7170696d8.tgz
Developer: http://bigota.d.miui.com/6.8.25/kate_global_images_6.8.25_20160805.0000.29_6.0_global_195d892285.tgz
3. To install Official Cyanogenmod 13 for Kenzo on Kate (coming from MIUI), you would have to modify the build.prop and then flash the supported firmwares .zip file. One thing worth mentioning here is that, you must remove or replace NON-HLOS.bin found inside the .zip file, otherwise your phone wouldn't be able to detect the sim card. Still, you can flash only NON-HLOS.bin for Kate (from official rom) on fastboot later if you prefer to skip all the trouble modifying the firmwares .zip file. In my case, the only required files from the firmwares .zip for CM13 to run properly are just emmc_appsboot.mbn and file_contexts.

TWRP for Kate

Never mind, I flashed Alka TWRP
I unlocked my Redmi Note 3 Pro (Kate) today and wanted to flash TWRP. However I could only find links to TWRP for Kenzo. Could anyone help me with this?
Thanks
Use Alka its perfectly working in kate. Don't forget to flash Lazy Flasher.

What is lazy flasher..?
Also, just FYI, the stock TWRP for Kenzo doesn't play nice with the internal storage on kate - files copied over in TWRP are not able to be modified in any way in Android even with root.

Sorry for bothering You...
Just to be clear.
First I have to flash TWRP3_Kenzo via ADB?
Then I have to install Alka via TWRP3 interface?
And then I have to install Lazy Flasher again via TWRP3 interface?
Is it OK or Not?
But what if I can not see internal storage, because it is encrypted? Do I have to use external USB flash drive for Alka and Lazy zips???
Thanks

Yeah keep going.. in case if you cant see internal storage then flash ZCX recovery (install image) from your sd card or usb flash & then flash lazy. This recovery is good for MiUi rom user you can use ota update.

Hi there, I've been reading a lot of post recommending ALKA TWRP but they were old (from may or june).
Then (post from august) I've read that Alka + miui with MM results in phone bricked.
And nobody said anything about LazyFlasher.
I'm running MIUI 8.1.1.0 Global Estable (Android 6.0.1)with officialy unlocked bootloader, will Alka be ok to flash?
What's the reason to flash lazy flasher? Thanks in advance.

I dont know about these post, i flashed 2 month ago....
They didn't flashed lazy flasher thats why maybe phone bricked... Just flash Alka after unlocking bootloader then lazy flasher then reboot. Thats it.

Indeed, you will need to root again after any ROM update, regardless of recovery or Magisk/Supersu (unless the ROM is pre-rooted).
