Hi guys
Ive just purchased the great kenzo last week
I just wanted to know how do i root my phone
It has 8.0.5.0
I wanted to know is there a way to do this so that i dont lose warranty
Also as i understand i will have to unlock bootloader to do this and for that i will have to place a request with xiaomi thus voiding my warranty
So is it possible to just root and not void warranty
Also if there are any options to install custom roms as well without losing warranty
Any help will be appreciated guys
I am from India
Anybody??
Requesting a bootloader unlock will not void your warranty
It is easiest done in this order:
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Flash TWRP recovery
3. Flash SuperSU to root.

You DO NOT have to unlock your bootloader to flash twrp and then root your phone. Please see this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/red...-to-flash-twrp-recovery-unlock-t3473294/page8
It worked very well for me.

I think it will only work reliably on a Marshmallow based rom. So you will need to flash the latest global beta in edl mode.

Where can i find the developer fastboot room for kenzo to proceed with this
All i can find is the global developer recovery ROM which you can flash through updater app in rom
I did download this miui_HMNote3ProGlobal_6.10.13_4869db85f8_6.0.zip from http://en.miui.com/extra.php?mod=rom/download&r=301&mobile=no
Am i doing this right?

Excellent work mate
Didnt expect such a quick reply, thnx
Just so that I've got this right..
I install this via edl using miui flash tool and changing the recovery to twrp in the package before installing
And then either i can root that rom or install any other rom
I do not have to unlock bootloader to do this right or install another rom following this?
What recovery would u suggest
Thanks again for ur help mate:good:

I would just flash global rom, unlock bootloader and then you can flash recovery via adb. It's easier.
Just use standard TWRP or Alka.

I used Zcx twrp. It can read the encrypted data partition in Marshmallow and also disable dm-verity in the locked bootloader. You must boot into recovery immediately after flashing the ROM and before booting into MIUI or twrp will be over written.
I have not flashed other ROMs, but I did root MIUI by flashing SuperSU from twrp without any problems.

Zcx twrp has SuperSU included that you can flash. That worked for me on 6.9.29. I have since upgraded to 6.10.13. You should check out the Zcx twrp thread on the guides forum.

Hey buddy
Please help me with this
I tried reverting back to stable build from CM 13
I used edl to flash stable build but when i do it and boot the rom i don't have network.
But when i flash the dev build i do have network.
I remember restoring the modem in dev build from twrp backup got the network up and running earlier when i reverted back to dev build from cm
But i cannot do that for the stable build coz of locked bootloader and no twrp
Can you please tell me what I'm doing wrong

From what I've read, that is a general problem when you revert from a MIUI mm based ROM to a lollipop ROM. There are several threads on how to solve the problem.
Good luck.

I think you'll have to search for the threads here or on the MIUI forums. I don't remember the full procedure, but I think it involves flashing an older version of the developer ROM before flashing the stable ROM. I have not done it myself. Xiaomi even warns in the MIUI forums that reverting to the stable Lollipop ROM from the LL developer ROM is difficult.
Good luck.

Install twrp, then install magisk, then install stock recovery and relock bootloader.
You can flash a official dev edition, which is defaulted rooted.

I believe so. Flashing magisk, enabling root, then relocking BL mighr be the best way.
Guys I have a rooted Redmi note 4 with TWRP recovery. I'm on developer beta ROM running dev v7.6.22 and I just got an update to v7.6.29 with 84 mb. I'm unable to update it via TWRP. It's saying that the updating process ended with an error. So no way to update.... we've to wait for full ROM update (like 1.5gb) to jump to the new version.
Or do u guys have any suggestions??
Its occurred because of the TWRP Recovery. You can flash Stock Recovery or u Have to download full update package.

Find a custom rom for your device. Root device first and flash custom recovery and flash custom rom from the recovery. Just google here or somewhere for the dedicated flashing process for your device.
