[GUIDE][TWRP_3.5.2+MAGISK] Root Access for Redmi 9 (Galahad) - Redmi 9 / Poco M2 Guides, News, & Discussion

HI,
This setup was done in a new redmi 9 from Amazon in Europe, code name Galahad, people say here that is the same as the Lancelot, not sure at all due to some soft bricks following tutorials for the lancelot version, i left here the details:
Device: Redmi 9
Code Name: Galahad
MIUI: Global Estable 11.0.9(QJCEUXM)
Model: 10 QP1A
I bricked this device following the tutorials:
https://unofficialtwrp.com/xiaomi-redmi-9-root-twrp-3-4-1/
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...edmi-9-lancelot-indian-prime-miui-11.4205307/
The procedure is way simple, but that recovery and those of the same source always failed in the touchscreen of twrp.
It got locked into a bootloop, always booting to the recovery, luckily i got adb working in twrp so i did a reboot to the fastboot and there i had some choice to do with the device.
Well after searching i found a new twrp working well for my device: twrp-3.5.2_10-0-lancelot.img
Well the name says lancelot so maybe is the same and my issues were related to the miui version....
-Requirements
1-Unlocked bootloader ( i did under Linux with https://www.xiaomitool.com/V2/) Works great in linux!
2-Fastboot
2-twrp-3.5.2_10-0-lancelot.img
3-misc.bin
4-vbmeta.img
2-Install TWRP
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.5.2_10-0-lancelot.img
fastboot flash misc misc.bin
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot boot twrp-3.5.2_10-0-lancelot.img
3-Install Magisk
When you are in the Twrp recovery just Install the Magisk-v21.4.zip.
4-Final things
This is working in a MIUI 11, in few days i'll update to 12 and will see if all works.
Cheers,

I have Redmi 9(Lancelot global). I want to root my phone using magisk v23.0, which is one MIUI version 12.0.4. Will the TWRP 3.5.2 work in miui 12.0.4 or i have to downgrade to miui 12.0.1?

i have mui 12.0.4 global lancelot and twrp 3.5.2 works fine

---

And if i want to unroot and go back to stock miui recovery do i just flash the fastboot ROM?

---

you unroot aim to get 2 imei show? if that's your goal will not be achieved by just flash the global rom. see the discussion I made on the forumfor

coba dengan bypassmtk.exe
flash menggunakan "DA crack"
ambil versi rom 11.0.4
----------
MOD EDIT: English Translation Below
try with bypassmtk.exe
flash using "DA crack"
take rom version 11.0.4

I don't know what it is that you're trying to say. I don't need to remove factory reset protections, I need to get back fastboot. Fastboot only broke when I flashed the misc.bin file

So I downloaded bypassmtk.exe and did what the instructions on the website said
Download MediaTek Bypass Tool V4 by MCT | New MTK Auth Bypass Tool 2023
MCT MediaTek MTK Bypass Tool v4 is a free program developed by MCT team that helps to Bypass AUTH protection from new MTK chipset easily.

Phone is hard bricked now. Won't even show the Redmi logo. People kept telling me Xiaomi phones were great for development but they're **** in every single way. $130 down the drain for no reason

Edit: I'm sorry I didn't see the attached files, I'm new and this is all ver overwhelming.
