I like to know if it's already possible to root device? I thought I could just patch boot image from a fastboot rom, but now I heard that boot.img is probably the recovery partition on A/B devices, while vendor_boot.img is probably the actual boot partition.
Is there a safe and working way to root yet?
Yes I have rooted my Mi 11 Lite 5G . I have also flashed EU rom via fastboot . The process is normal .. Download fast boot rom ..extract ..install latest Magisk application . Patch the boot.img in the images folder. Flash via fastboot ..
fastboot flash boot patchedboot.img
( name the patched file patchedboot.img)
Then you can also flash EU version rom with flash all bat in the fastbootrom.
Thanks for the info. If nothings changing my plans, I will flash tomorrow evening.
I'm my case I flash latest stable.

Hi
With that ROM do you have full screen gestures working with other launchers?
To install this ROM the bootloader needs to be unlocked?
Thanks

Yes you need to unlock for flashing but can relock when done if you are flashing official stuff without root .. I'm on latest BETA EU rom and I'm using lawnchair 2 in combo with fluid gestures application to get workaround to get full screen gestures working really well . I'm not aware of which other launchers supppet full screen gestures on miui on amdroid 11 ... Theoretically according to dev of fluid gestures it shouldn't be working ... Cos it's android 11 and MIUI blocks 3rd party gesture apps ..or Google does ..anyway it works with or without root but I have only used lawnchair 2.
Thanks @KevMetal
I was hoping that with that ROM I would be a able to use for example Nova Launcher with gestures.
But that seems to not be the case

I'm not saying no . I'm just saying the only workable situation I've found ... It's worth a try .. Install Nova and Fluid gestures.. If it fails try flashing EU rom using that ..failing again try the combo with Magisk .. Still failing replace Nova with Lawnchair...unless you specifically need Nova .. Or if simply don't want to unlock boot.. But is the first thing I do MIUI to get rid of all the bloat systemlessly with Magisk
I will try.
Thanks

No you don't need to know .. Just patch the boot image of the fastboot rom with magisk application on your phone. We don't have a twrp and you need to unlock your bootloader ALWAys on EVERY phone to root or use twrp .. Anyway unlock it ..it's no big deal ..then flash via fast boot

Yes, I tried also and it works.
I just want to be sure before beginning the procedure...tommorow, it's 7 days wait for unlock the phone...
I use batch unlock tool and it wipe the phone
after complete setup again, I copy boot.img from fastboot on phone and flash it with last magisk and then I flash it in fastboot mode.
and I have to flash complete EU rom with flash all command??? but it will overwrite patched boot with stock one???
do I miss something or not??

**I am not responsible for anything that may happen to your phone as a result of installing any roms and kernels or due to following this guide. You do so at your own risk and take the responsibility upon yourself**
This Guide is accurate and updated to help you unlock your bootloader and flash custom recovery like twrp.
But before you get started, please back up all your important data and make sure that your battery is charged at least 60% or else it may get your device bricked.
Requirements: All the drivers mentioned below, Windows PC, cable, Redmi Note 7 Pro and some general knowledge obviously
Step by Step: Official Unlock Process
1> Disable driver signature enforcement in Windows(Just in case)
If your computer doesn’t recognize Xiaomi drivers then please disable driver signature enforcement. How to do this please read here: http://en.miui.com/thread-237673-1-1.html
2> Install ADB and Fastboot tools with drivers on Windows
How to install adb and fastboot please read here: Click Here
How to install Mi drivers- Click Here (Optional, Just in case)
3> Enable "OEM unlocking" and "USB debugging" in your device
a. Enable Developer Options in: Settings/About Phone/MIUI version. Click on MIUI version seven times
b. Now go to: Settings/Additional Settings/Developer Options and check "OEM unlocking" and "USB debugging"
4> Connect your phone to PC via USB cable and wait for a minute or 2 to make sure your PC install Redmi specific drivers and after that open cmd by searching or press "Windows+X" and open PowerShell and type "adb devices" and then check your phone for any prompt and press "Yes" or "Allow" and also tick the check box that's says "Always allow for this computer" and after that it will display your phone's serial number in cmd. If it shows no devices found then that means you've missed a step. Follow all the steps properly and your device will appear there..
5> Check if your bootloader is locked
a> Type "adb reboot bootloader" and then your phone should enter fastboot with Mi bunny logo and in if it's doesn't then try this method- Turn off your phone, then enter the fastboot mode by holding together "Volume Down + Power" and then connect your device to your computer via USB cable (best would be the original cable)
b> Go to the folder where you have put the "ADB and Fastboot" and open a command window inside that folder. To do that hold together "Shift + Right Click" on any empty white space inside the folder and then select "Open PowerShell Window Here" or "Open Command Window Here"
c> Enter the terminal command in command line: "fastboot devices" and it should once again show your device..
If you don't see your device it means that the drivers weren't installed properly or the device wasn't connected properly. If this happens please reinstall your drivers again or try these drivers here(only install this if everything else fails):
http://xiaomiadvices.com/download-xiaomi-usb-drivers/
d> If you see your device then enter the terminal command in command line: "fastboot oem device-info"
If your bootloader is locked, you'll get the following status (or something similar):
…………………………………………………………………….
(bootloader) Device tampered: false
(bootloader) Device unlocked: false
(bootloader) Device critical unlocked: false
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: false
(bootloader) Display panel:
OKAY [ 0.058s]
finished. total time: 0.063s
………………………………………………………………………
If your bootloader is unlocked, you'll get following status (or something similar):
…………………………………………………………………….
(bootloader) Device tampered: false
(bootloader) Device unlocked: true
(bootloader) Device critical unlocked: true
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: false
(bootloader) Display panel:
OKAY [ 0.053s]
finished. total time: 0.055s
………………………………………………………………………
6> Unlock the Bootloader
a> Create a Mi Account: https://global.account.xiaomi.com/pass/register
b> Connect your Mi Account to your Device-
Go to: Settings/Additional Settings/Developer Options/Mi Unlock status and check "Add account and device" and add the Mi account that you just created
Unlocking the bootloader will erase all your data! So please back up your data before you unlock the bootloader!
c> You must enable "OEM unlocking" and "USB debugging"
d> You must connect your Mi Account with your device
e> Download Mi Unlock Tool here: http://en.miui.com/unlock/download_en.html
f> Install Mi unlock tool and launch it and after that it will ask for phone number that you used to create the Mi account. Type that and then get otp and type that as well and then it ask you to enter fastboot
g> Enter the fastboot mode by holding together "Volume Down + Power" and connect your device to your computer via USB cable (best would be the original cable)
h> Start the Unlock process
i> Follow the unlock tool instructions until the unlock procedure is finished or it may ask you to wait 72 hours or more. In that case wait till that period and then try unlocking again
j> Reboot your device
Is your bootloader actually unblocked?
To check this, go back to step 5.d and run the command or go to developer settings/Mi unlock status and you will see that your device is unlocked if you've followed this guide correctly..
Install the TWRP Recovery
Once you device is unlocked,
1> Boot your phone into Fastboot(you already know how to do that by now).
2> Then open a command prompt in the folder where twrp image file is located and connect your device to PC and run "fastboot devices"and it should show your device and then
3> Type "fastboot flash recovery twrp(type the actual name of twrp here). img"
4> Boot into recovery before rebooting and to do this, type- "fastboot boot twrp-3.2.1.0-violet.img" or "fastboot reboot recovery" or do it manually by holding "Volume up+Power"
Link for twrp- Not yet available. To be updated soon
Root Your Smartphone
First boot into your OS and then
Go to twrp/Install and select Magisk file and flash it and then reboot.
Now, you've successfully rooted your device.
Link for Magisk(Root)- Click Here
Install A Custom Firmware
Not yet available. To be updated soon.

There is no such thing as fastboot rom.. Any rom can be on installed via twrp or fastboot but fastboot process is difficult for newbies that's why people use twrp.. and did you really expect a rom this early?? Really? kindly wait and let everyone get a device first..

Generally xiaomi release both recovery and fastboot flashable rom simultaneously but fastboot rom pkg can be leaked from factory build .however recovery mode flashable Rom may be available thereafter ,also mi team aggressively builds and packs rom so both can be available at mi server but link not publically revealed .
You can rewrite a recovery flash updater script with fastboot partitions but absolutley cant use fastboot pkg as it is in recovery mode.

That's stock miui rom.. stock roms always are fastboot and recovery supported and i get that.. And by fastboot rom if you mean leaked miui builds and xiaomi.eu rom, then they are once again stock firmware based and not really custom rom.. I only created this thread for clear guide on unlocking bootloader, twrp and installing custom rom.. So what's the point of name calling.. jeez.. peace out buddy..
My only objective is to get twrp up and running as soon as i get the device.. And device haven't even sold yet, not even in china.. So i standby by my point for everyone to kindly wait for a while.. flashing leaked builds and stuff like this is what gets devices bricked especially since note 7 has anti rollback enabled.. If the leaked build is downgraded than that firmware, even by small version number, device is bricked.. So i want everyone to be careful.. but if anybody wants to do that, then sure go right ahead.. it's your choice

FYI
Stock roms from Xiaomi come in two formats
1. a stock rom package which you can flash from recovery (twrp) or through system updater (aka choose update package). These are full stock roms (not OTAs). These cannot be flashed via fastboot or MiFlash tool. These have the actual market name of the device in the file name and can be found here.
https://en.miui.com/download.html
2. fastboot roms, these are full roms which need to be flashed either via fastboot or using MiFlash tool. these cannot be flashed using a recovery or system updater. These have the codename of the device in the file name.
Hope this clears your misconception.

I get it just fine.. fastboot roms that you say are also called factory images.. i get it.. When i mentioned stock miui is recovery and fastboot supported, I meant stock rom supporting both recovery and fastboot version but I'm not interested in miui so i wrote in shortcut and didn't write in detail like u did mentioning individual version cause I've no interest in miui so why write so much about it in this thread.. when i said any rom can be flashed via twrp or fastboot, I meant custom rom not memeUI/miui.. i never said anything about supporting miui or fastboot roms that you say.. i never mentioned anything about it so no point in attacking me over it.. Peace.. No hard feelings if you like miui.. I like aosp so i plan to support that only in this thread.. No more OT discussion.. No hard feelings once again.. I'd to keep discussion aosp related..

There are ways to enable lte bands by modifying nv files but still you won't get any signals in that band, not unless xiaomi themselves include the blobs required to enable those band and the antenna must be capable of accepting it as well.. So, short answer no unless one manages to get the right blob and hardware support..

now i cant find my device with Adb devices (its says List of devices attached)
pls help :/ thank you.
Go to nearest service centre
Going to a service center probably isn't a wise idea. You've rooted your phone - your warranty is gone.
I guess you don't have the right drivers installed OR, the stock rom you were trying to flash had some issues with the flash script. You might want to take a look at this post
Download the correct stock ROM for your device, the .tgz version & flash it with miflash tool. It's important to note that some versions of miflash tool don't work with Mi A series phones for unknown reasons.
Alternatively, if your recovery is working, then you can flash the recovery version of stock rom. It's all available on this forum.

Just reboot your device when it finishes after 600 seconds. Miflash doesn't tell you that it successfully flashed it it just goes on forever. So just reboot and it will work.

I believe I need to get it into EDL mode. I have no problem taking off the back glass and shorting the pins to do so, but not sure what to do after that point... Set slot to active "a", flash it with miflash with a fastboot stock ROM? Also from what ive read, you can only put thw phone into edl mode once so it's a one shot deal.

I believe I need to get it into EDL mode. I have no problem taking off the back glass and shorting the pins to do so, but not sure what to do after that point...

Try to unlock bootloader once again through fastboot and after that you can change the slot.

Set active slot to a first before flashing in MiFlash using command - "fastboot set_active a" (without quotations) in adb command.

managed to get into EDL mode by shorting the pinouts, but still cant flash stock ROM cuz apparently xiaomi has to authorize it (ie i dont have permission to unbrick it). This is the first and last xiaomi phone I'll ever buy - never had a phone where there was no option i had to unbrick it. going to ****in smash it to peices!
I felt sorry that no one did help these people,
go to fastboot and run windows commands in twrp folder and type as following :
- option one:
fastboot devices
./fastboot set_active b
./fastboot erase boot
./fastboot set_active a
./fastboot erase boot
fastboot flashing unlock (optional)
fastboot Flash boot [put twrp name].img or go to mi flash to install stock rom. or unzip the stock rom from bat file run it
or try the second option:

I'm trying to install Custom ROM on my Phone , Gionee S11 Lite
To install custom recovery but first i need to unlock boot-loader
So i followed the steps ;
1.Enable developer mode
2. Allow OEM and USB Debugging
3. I downloaded " ADB FAstboot " and run in command prompt
i enter these commads
# adb reboot bootloader
Fastboot mode opened on phone
#adb devices
#adb reboot bootloader (These commad executed but )
#fastboot oem unlock
#fastboot flashing unlock
#fastboot flashing unlock_critical --> But these commad cant unlock custom boot mode , I got stuck here , i don't know what to do
In the Phone , on the FlashBoot Mode
there is DEVICE STATE - Locked
SECURE BOOT - Enabled
How to resolve this ? There is no any third party app like KingsRoot or other can't root this Device.
I want to install custom Operating system on this Phone cause , Gionee is down already and i can see on my phone some application are automatically downloading and installing. i tried lot of the option to block it but nothing worked.
And i can't take a risk to use personal things on this phone until i fixed it .

I can't seem to unlock bootloader on mi a3 on android 10 i get a lot of things on the powershell but nothing happens on the device.
Thank you in advance
Which commands do you use? Locking and unlocking the bootloader should have nothing to do with the version of Android you have installed

Probably you installed an old version of the adb/fastboot drivers.
Download the sdk from here https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools and extract the files in the adb folder in the volume (C

You are still using old version of fastboot. Either search&replace fastboot.exe in all locations on your hard drive, or remove fastboot folder from Windows PATHS.

Use the proper twrp built for Android 10 from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi...y-unoffical-twrp-xiaomi-mi-a3-t3987759/page16
The twrp.img you used only works on Android 9.
Twrp.zip will work on any Android version so once you flash the correct .img then you can reboot recovery and if you want install twrp by flashing twrp.zip

Hi, first of all, I'm not a dev or else just user who had difficulties to flash GSI on my phone... Was 7 years with a samsung galaxy Note 3, with twrp....So easy to flash....
with the help of @gr0ndpa, thanks to him.....
FLASH GSI
Now I will explain how to flash easily with files attached
1/ first of all you need a phone and drivers installed, use xiaomi pc suite, unzip and install it
2/ you need to activate USB debug in dev options.
3/ dl adb folder unzip it and put in C
4/ run command and type
Code:
cd /adb
5/ then
Code:
adb devices
to check if phone recognised
6/
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
once in fast boot
7/
Code:
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
wait finished type to enter in fastbootD
8/
Code:
fastboot reboot fastboot
9/
Code:
fastboot flash system
LiR 313.XXX.img
you will have a system error, but wait the flash begin in few seconds
at the end wait ok then
10/
Code:
fastboot reboot recovery
on stock recover
11/ wipe data and reboot with +/- and PWR
and you're done...
In case you want to flash custom kernel or patched boot image to root with magisk, you have to
12/
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Copy kernel boot image to C drive and rename kernel boot image to boot.img.
13/
Code:
fastboot flash boot c:\boot.img
14/
Code:
fastboot reboot
In case you want to flash twrp put the file to adb folder and type in fastboot
15/
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img

Flash ROM
This now how to flash ROM on your device, it's convenient for all roms like LOS, corvus, awaken...
First you need all the proper drivers installed and unlocked bootloader, USB debugging all of that stuff.
Now open up a cmd/terminal , and put the files i sent and the ROM file in the folder from where you're opening the cmd/terminal and connect the phone (you may need to put ./ as an suffix for all the commands if you're on linux)
Type
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Then type
Code:
fastboot devices
to see if everything is ok
Then type
Code:
fastboot flash boot_ab boot.img
(you can drag and drop the file instead of typing it)
After that's done type
Code:
fastboot flash vendor_boot_ab vendor_boot.img
(you can drag and drop this too if you want)
Code:
fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
(you can drag and drop this too if you want)
After that's done type
Code:
fastboot reboot recovery
This will boot you into a recovery and now you need to go to wipe and format data
After that go to apply update then adb sideload then
In the cmd type
Code:
adb sideload rom.zip
for example (you put the ROM zip here you can drag and drop it)
Wait for that to finish it will go to 47% and on the phone it will show step 1/2 then step 2/2
and when it's done it's gonna show an error
adb: failed to read command: No error
Then you can reboot to system

After I enter this, it just stays on waiting for any device.
Update: I was able to figure it out. My device had no drivers so I went search through updates on windows and installed a LeMobile Android driver os it shows up properly in device manager.
