Finally managed to get phone connected. The MI Unlock Tool files should be placed directly in C:\ otherwise phone will show as disconnected.
Now have to wait for 344 hours and try again

Total Nub's guide to rooting Qmobile Q Infinity & Micromax Canvas Inifinity

After failing some 1-click rooting methods, for the first time I tried to do it the hard way.
That turned out to be a pretty easy way thanks to some handy links to drivers and other files I found.
Infinity thanks to the thread I found platform-tools from and the website called "getdroidtips" for the Custom TWRP for the HS2.
NOTE: THIS GUIDE WILL WIPE YOUR DEVICE SO BE PREPARED

In cmd:
Code:

Did you try "flashboot boot twrp..." like in my guide or "flashboot flash twrp..."?
And which twrp image did you use?
In any case, if you can still get to the fastboot screen, try booting with the twrp image in Step 4 above (download links in the pastebin link)

In any case, if you can still get to the fastboot screen, try booting with the twrp image in Step 4 above (download links in the pastebin link)

Hi, "flashboot boot twrp" wasnt working at all, so i tried "flashboot flash twrp" and all i have is a bootloop. So after flashing recoveru i booted my phone to fastboot and run the command, " flashboot boot recovery recovery.img" where recovery is the custom recovery image and it booted into recovery. Then there is one more step to do that allowed me to finally boot into my os. Its working fine and i still have twrp installed on my phone

[root] redmi 4x root

Firstly this is my first helpful post so be gentle.
How to root the Redmi 4x
First off I am not accountable if your fry your device or shut down the power grid etc.
Alright. It took me some research and trial and error but I found the CORRECT way to root the Redmi 4x.
Needed files:
Lasted version of the magisk zip. DO NOT USE ANY VERSION OF SUPER SU. IT CAUSES BOOTLOOP.
TWRP for Redmi 4x
Lazy patcher.
Adb and fastboot files.
Step one:
Ensure your bootloader is unlocked. If not search XDA for a thread there are multiple threads showing you how to do it. Once that's done let's move on.
Step 2:
Alright let's get going with flashing TWRP first.
You need to enable developer options and enable USB debugging on your Redmi. To do that go to settings>about devices>scroll down>continually tap on MIUI version and a toast notification will tell you that you are now a developer>go to developer option under the more options tab and enable USB debugging.
Step 3:
Now that we've got USB debugging we can connect to Adb. Firstly download all aforementioned files and place them in the same folder as your Adb installation for ease of access. Now open up a command prompt in that folder by either typing "cmd" into the address bar or shift+right click and select open command window here. Now you need to connect your phone via USB to your computer and ensure it is connected by entering "adb devices" into the command window.
Step 4: commands
Here are the commands you will need to enter. I recommend making a backup of everything first.
Enter these commands
adb reboot bootloader
Fastboot flash recovery (put TWRPS full file name here including the .zip)
Wait for it to finish.
Now DO NOT BOOT TO SYSTEM.
Enter in fastboot reboot and hold volume up to enter recovery. If you boot to system it will remove twrp and you will have to reflash it.
Once in Twrp check the box to allow modifications and slide right.
Go to advanced and the ADB sideboard.
Now flashing magisk and lazy patcher.
Reconnect your phone to the computer and leave Twrp on sideload mode.
Enter this command
adb sideload (lazy patchers full file name here)
Now I made sure my phone still booted to system after this because every time I flashed SuperSU it would boot loop.
Once your back in sideload mode let's flash magisk.
adb sideload (magisks full file name here).
Once it's done select reboot to system from Twrp and enjoy your root!!
Again I say do not use any flashable root other than magisk. I don't know if I had a specific problem but every single one I tried resulted in bootloop.

Question How to unlock Revvl 6 Pro 5g?

I need help unlocking bootloader on my new Revvl 6 Pro 5g, this is my first mtk device, and I'm a Windows guy and I'm lost on the whole mtk client tool and python.
Any and all help would be a phenomenal help!
I think this phone would have a lot more potential with a gsi running on it!
The T-Mobile Revvl 6 pro 5g is made by Wingtech, code name: Augusta and model # is TMAF035G. I dunno if that's of any help but after all my research that's all I know that's 100% fact!
Help your fellow human geek out to enjoy this phones potential!

It's starting to look like I need to put together a guide...
I don't know how to do this on a mac. And I didn't like using the GUI on mtkclient, it would recognize the device but sometimes wouldn't connect.
I suggest you download the liveDVD from the mtkclient readme (https://github.com/bkerler/mtkclient), put it on a bootable usb stick and run it from there. This is the setup that worked best for me, better than on windows anyway.
Also, read this (https://github.com/bkerler/mtkclient/issues/79). The REVVL 6 Pro 5G has an A/B setup, and unlocking it is not really explained in the current readme. Basically, you need to find out what slot you are booting from (boot_a or boot_b) and flash accordingly. Don't flash both slots, if something goes wrong you might want a slot to fall back to.
From adb do:
adb reboot fastboot
wait for your phone to boot into fastboot mode, and then:
fastboot getvar current-slot
That should tell you what your current slot is.
In order to get mtkclient to connect I booted into the liveDVD opened up the terminal and entered
python mtk r boot boot.img
It will keep looping, looking for your device and give you time to get your REVVL 6 Pro connected with the right button combo (start with power off, then volume down & plug in usb). When it connects a bunch of information will scroll down the screen. It will look for a "boot" partition but won't find one and will show an error, this is ok though. It's connected and you can begin flashing to your hearts content.
IMPORTANT!
Before you go any further make a backup with:
python mtk rl out
This will dump all partitions to a folder "out" on the computer. Save this somewhere, it is your backup.
You may not want to back up the entire userdata partition (it's huge and may take 4 hours to copy, thanks to @threeeye see post 14 below) so when it gets to that you can hit control+c to stop and then backup any remaining partitions manually with this format:
If you don't want to backup userdata folder then try this:
python mtk rl out --skip userdata
Back up individual partitions with this:
python mtk r partitionToBackup partitionName.bin
example: python mtk r vbmeta_a vbmeta_a.bin
The information for unlocking and rooting is in the links above.
Make a backup BEFORE you unlock and root!
Thanks _hollywood_. I got the slot (b), but am not able to get mtk to find the device, it continues to loop. Any tips of figuring out the "right button combo"?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Start with the device off and unplugged from the computer, then hold the volume down button while you plug in the usb. I'm not 100% sure now if that's the correct combo, it's been a while since I did it. If that doesn't work maybe try holding the vol up and plugging in the usb?... but I think that takes you into recovery.
I've been trying different GSIs and found CRdroid runs best, with fewest errors, but I'm not able to make calls, and only sometimes send / recieve mms. Maybe I got something wrong with the phh treble settings? I'm having those issues regardless what GSI I flash.
Phones vary GSI friendly, booted and ran every GSI I flashed!
Does anyone have a backup of the boot_a.img? Long story short i've bricked my phone and i dont have a backup anymore
Really a whole stock rom would be best if you can, thanks in advance

Fist, thank you for publishing this guide!
I bricked my Xperia 1 III today, and I rushed to T-Mobile to get a cheap replacement phone and I got this phone (but I still need root to function),
2nd, you failed to mention that backing up the phone with:
Code:
python mtk rl out
(yes, I wanted to backup the userdata as well) would take more than 4 hours... LOL

Thanks, I actually got it later that day probably using what you mentioned in a different tutorial. The device is now rooted. Anyone know of any possible opensource ROM of any kind that would work on this phone? Or TWRP? Other than that Root seems to be pretty useless on this thing. I can debloat Google via ADB, but thats about it, no R/W access since its stock with Root.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
1. Waiting time to unlock the bootloader
Q. If I receive the message: "unlocking can be done after 72h or 168h or 360h etc.". Is there a way to skip this waiting time?
A: Unfortunately you have to wait for that time to pass. There’s no way around it (that I know of). It seems like new and never used (to unlock bootloader) accounts receive a shorter waiting time.
2. Unlock procedure stops at 99%
Q: If my unlock procedure stops at 99%, what could be the problem?
A: Most problay you're using two different Xiaomi accounts. You have to use the same account that you have added into the device also in the unlock tool otherwise it will not work.
3. Recommended ad-blocker (for rooted devices)
Q: I want to block the advertisement in all apps, what app can you recommend?
A: If you decide to root your device, then you can install AdAway from here: https://adaway.org/. In order for AdAway to work properly please add in the Magisk App the Systemless Hosts (Magisk/Settings/Systemless Hosts).
4. Retaining the root after ROM update
Q: If I root my device as per point C, E of the AiO and I install a system update in my device, is the root still available?
A: Unfortunately root will be removed after the system update. So you have to repeat the procedure in point C, E.

0. Please don't quote the entire Post no 1 because this thread becomes too long.
1. I'd recommend to go to Xiaomi.eu, first page, they explained very well the differences between MIUI and Xiaomi.eu.
2. Without unlocked bootloader you can't make any system modifications. That's why i started the thread with "unlock the bootloader" (Point B). Ok, i updated Point C.

Hi. Can you provide a link to ofox recovery?
Hello.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
I have done everything you indicated. I am able to click on the UNLOCK button, and it starts the process. Still, when it reaches 99%, it stops and gives me an error message: "Please add your account in MIUI's Settings > Developer options > Mi Unlock status", I did it and the phone showed me that the account was added successfully, but when I retry, it shows the same message again.
Any clue?
Thanks again.

Are you using the latest version of the app ? it is - 6.6.510.37 ... check if that is the case.
(as of 25th May 2023)
Hello. Thank you for your reply.
Yes, I am using the latest version of the app.
I bought this phone (Redmi Note 12 Turbo) in Mainland China, but I do not live there. I just want to install the Global ROM, so I can make the most of the phone in my country and besides I do not need the Chinese apps that come installed.
It seems like the phone does not really get added to my Xiaomi account.
I tried another app to unlock the bootloader, but no success either.

You have to use the same account that you have added into the device also in the unlock tool otherwise it will not work. See also point B.6. in Post #1.
Since this question is made by more users, I just updated Post #2, Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ), answering this question as well.
Thank you for your reply.
Yes, I am using the same account in both, the unlock tool and the phone. Actually, the process begins normally and reaches 99%, but then does not work. I am using Windows 11.
I feel the pone slower after unlock bootloader and install lastest stable eu rom, anyone with the same result?
Can anyone tell me what is the code and version of the original rom come with it?
Thanks in advance

u can try factory resetting the phone and trying again.
NOTE :- You need to turn off wifi and have a sim with data enabled. (I will suggest you create a new account and use your moblie number as login NOT email). If it still doesn't work maybe contact Xiaomi .

I installed via fastboot.
I use universal android debloater (https://github.com/0x192/universal-android-debloater) to debloat - all apps listed are uninstalled.
I use Opencalc from F-Droid to replace MIUI Calculator and Simple notes to replace MIUI Notes.
I would highly suggest you check what I have disabled since you may use some of the apps removed.
Make sure you are not logged into your Xiaomi account when you debloat, as I have uninstalled it and doing so while logged in will cause a bootloop.
Debloat list:
com.android.calendar
com.android.deskclock
com.android.email
