DEBLOAT Redmi Note 7 MIUI 10.3.5.0 No Root/Bootloader Locked - Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods

Hi people, I has been using This phone for almost 20 days and didn't find a tutorial of how to remove most bloatware for Lavender safely and without rooting, here it goes:
1. We need to download two tools, the first one is Xiaomi ADB Fastboot Tools from Github.com/Saki-EU/XiaomiADBFastbootTools (Link at bottom). And the second one are the correct drivers for our phone provided in the same Github page.
2. Instructions: (Taken from Saki-EU Github)
Connecting a device in ADB mode
-Enable developer options in Android.
MIUI: Go to Settings > About device and tap ‘MIUI version’ seven times to enable developer options.
Android One: Go to Settings > System > About device and tap ‘Build number’ seven times to enable developer options.
-Enable USB debugging in Android.
MIUI: Go to Settings > Additional settings > Developer options and enable USB debugging as well as USB debugging (Security settings).
Android One: Go to Settings > System > Developer options and enable USB debugging.
-Connect your device to the computer and launch the application. The device is going to ask for authorisation, which you'll have to allow.
-Wait for the application to detect your device. The device info should appear in the top left section.
3. In the aplication you will see the safe to remove system apps, I delete most of them and everything works fine, no bootloop or soft bootloop, I highly recomend to deactivate al MI apps and account, MI device find and MI cloud services.
NOTE:
After downloading the usb drivers provided by Saki-EU, connect your phone, execute the tool, a window will appear, if your phone shows below you are ok to intall the driver.
4. My Debloat:
-No Debloated

Debloated Everything Else
Tool Updated. Now is in 6.8.1 compatible with MIUI 11.0.4
https://github.com/Saki-EU/XiaomiADBFastbootTools/releases

Done this 3 days after getting the phone. Much nicer without all the MI apps and some of the Google apps.

I hope you are talking about this tool
I've debloated everything possible (since only apps that don't brick your device are enumerated anyway) -> installed Google apps. Works pretty well ^^

is it safe to remove find my device? in the pocophone thread someone said you can get bootloop

The Xiaomi ADB Fastboot Tool from Saki-EU list the safe to remove system apps, you can delete the listed apps but is highly recomended to disable all the MI cloud based services before, included the MI account and MI find my device. :good:

When I can delete most of unnecessary stuff using SAKI, I really feel no need to root my phone or install unofficial custom roms. It's already blazing fast with long battery life, plus fast enough battery charging with Q3 charger. I don't see enough benefit for taking a risk of putting my phone in less secure state.

This is what i know:
HybridAccesory: Perhaps is the one that makes posible the use of Micro SD in the first SIM slot, really not sure.
SMS Extra: Free sms service provided by Xiaomi using just Xiaomi devices, dont know if works outside China.
Partner Bookmarks: Never missed that
Xiaomi Service Framework: Big bloatware that makes connection to Xiaomi servers for ads and user information.
Xiaomi SIM Activation Service: Not related to actual SIM card use, maybe for collecting data.

Thank you, but what do you mean by "Partner Bookmarks: Never missed that"? Always debloat you mean?
I actually got rid off all those as well. Seem to be fine. Saki mentions all the listed uninstallable apps/services in his program are safe to remove. So I just removed those 5 as well. More free RAM now ? I just hope I won't miss MIUI OTA by removing any of them.

would debloating make miui use less ram?
title sums it all up. I'd really wanna know coz I'm considering debloating my device.

i had a funny nightmare last night where my note 7 was blaring out 7000 notifications a day about various "issues" with my device, and i couldn't even read texts because they just kept spamming me with meaningless fluff notifications. so i tried to install lineage on it.
...i miss my oneplus.
today i decided to check if official lineage was available yet, but this looks like it'll be fine for a while.

Defenitely!

See the title
2.3GB RAM available when I don't have anything open, I've debloated all the apps listed in earlier post, plus I have other extra apps installed (mail client, whatsap, games, etc).

Thanks! I only debloated some apps like: Mi Music, Play Music, Play Videos, Mi Videos, and MSA.
Still using some of Mi Apps and Google tho.

Saki's program newer version released. I noticed he adds more uninstallable apps in every new versions. Latest is 6.3.2

Yup, thanks for the info.
:good:

Just one question though.
Let say I have debloat my device, and then one day an update arrive.
Can I update the OS without any issues, even if all of the bloated system apps have been uninstalled?

The tool provided by Saki-EU deletes the known safe to remove apps, but just for the user, them keeps in system, at date there has not been any problem with updates.

[ROM][All Quarks][7.1.x][LOS 14.1 Unofficial][2018-06-12]

Latest update: 2018-06-12 To view a changelog, you can visit https://review.lineageos.org/#/q/status:merged+branch:cm-14.1 for a rough idea up to the build date.
Hi all. I was able to compile this stock build of LOS 14.1 thanks to the efforts/hard works of Skrilax_CZ, bhb27, the folks who created RR, and those over at Lineage OS/CyanogenMod. It takes some minor features from RR (i.e. notification light, some tiny performance/battery tweaks, and the ability to install Motorola apps). It is otherwise stock LOS 14.1 and I use this daily. The other authors/devs and I assume no responsibility if you damage your device somehow.
Please don't feel pressured to update any more often than you wish .
Notes:
In order to make my calling work for Verizon, I had to go under Settings -> More -> Cellular networks -> Preferred network type, and select LTE/CDMA (not LTE/GSM/UMTS). I assume GSM users should be fine with the defaults.
Also if on Verizon, you should most likely select VZWINTERNET as your APN under Settings -> More -> Cellular networks -> Access Point Names (might not show up at first, but eventually loads)
My recommendations to install:
Install TWRP if you haven't already
3.1.1 - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=39562 (forum:http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...recovery-twrp-2-8-7-0-touch-recovery-t3180308)
Perform a backup of your current system/ROM (if coming from another ROM).
Perform a factory reset/wipe (if coming from another ROM).
Install the .zip
Install the appropriate google apps.
http://opengapps.org/. I would think nano or micro is best, ARM, and 7.1
Wipe dalvik/art cache if you install another kernel. I highly recommend BHB27 kernel
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=135512
Reboot and enjoy

I'll be back to post updates fairly regularly (~ every few weeks), but I also work full time in addition to being a dad (those of you who are know how that is ) and won't really be able to respond to PMs very well. The sources I used can be found under the post on XDA here at http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-maxx/development/rom-resurrection-remix-t3511109 (device, vendor, and kernel trees). Thanks and God bless.
Nice, downloading... made changes in the kernel?
Thanks developer @calsurferpunk

Thanks. No I didn't change anything about the kernel. There isn't a good alternative (that I know of yet) so I just used it straight from bhb for now.
How do I disable the capacitive buttons and use on screen nav bar instead?

My device is showing no root on this ROM and if I install super su it gains root but shows no sim card available. Fixed by enabling root permission in development settings.
The rom is almost 100%, the battery is well lasting me .... 1 screen time every 10% quietly, the only problem I really noticed was sending images on whatsapp that is not 100%, you send catch screen and photos taken by whatsapp ... now send images from the gallery do not know why, it just outside joys and once again thank you for your development. @calsurferpunk

I'm not sure what could be going on. I haven't flashed su and just use the stock CM root manager. Enabling root for apps only in developer options makes everything work for me when an app requests it. I did notice that I had to make sure that iSu was setting the policy as permissive (causes FC when set as enforcing).
If not bother you wanted to report a small simple mistake that can not encomodar only to warn even ... In Menu> Settings> Developer Options> animator duration scale, the second option is 0.5x and there is 5x....When I click on the Home screen and select background he simply FC, that's Gallery problem equal to whatsapp that has pictures not ...
The maintainer of CrDroid said I do not know how to use the Android and it really is a problem of rom and he would not listen to me and said she did not like my attitude. @calsurferpunk

So if I flash ROM and iSu says no root, then I just have to enable root in developer options without flashing SuperSU? I actually tried developer option after flashing SuperSU. Maybe that's why it didn't work. Let me know if I am right then I'll try the correct procedure.

That's all that I did and I haven't had any issue yet. I didn't have to change anything with iSu either (even if I did mess with it later just to see what it does).
Just as a quick update, next time I post an updated build I believe I know how to skip including iSu and kernel auditor by default. I'll make sure to include a way to download them and include them separately if this is successful. The goal of this is to keep it as close to stock CM 14.1 and still be functional so that anything you want to add can be done by your own free will .

太棒了
Hey @calsurferpunk, very good job. But I have to tell u about a bug I notice. When you'll transfer a music from pc to the phone, the music player says "That's impossible to play (Name of the Music)" and in the Google Play Music the music it's with 0 seconds. The music only goes if you put in recovery mode and transfer the mp3 archive while you're at TWRP.

It might be a bug with Play Music. I have transferred music normally and Poweramp plays it without any problems.

Pixel 2 XL Android 10 Semi-GSI for Redmi 5 Plus

Hi! A guide on how to get Pixel 2 XL GSI working on Vince/Redmi 5 Plus.
This is direct port from Pixel 2 XL with patches applied by ErfanGSI/Telegram servers.
MADE FOR SPECIFIC PEOPLE BY SPECIFIC PERSON. NOT A ROM FOR EVERYONE!
Google Camera 7.0 pre-installed however I highly recommend Google Camera 6+!
NOTE:
- The ROM is best used after the phone restarts couple of times.
- The ROM is best used after updates from Google Playstore are done.
- The ROM needs some time to stabilize and optimize after booting up.
After 2-3 hours of use and after updates are done phone will run very smooth.
You may face some lag/stutters but they will be gone later. It's normal cause stuff is updating.
Download link: MOD EDIT: Download link removed
Installation guide:
1. Extract this "Backup" file.
2. Install Orange Fox Recovery V10.
3. Wipe everything (excluding. Internal Storage).
4. Select "backups" and restore this backup.
5. Reboot into OS and log-in into Google.
If you want your UI to feel like GOD then use this profile in Kernel Auditor:
Performance Profile: https://drive.google.com/file/d/16Xrw0lDYPGs7AbUwgKvtqh5zVkWTbLDR/view?usp=sharing
If you want even more stuff then go ahead and copy and paste this into "vendor/etc" and set permission to 0644.
RIP Thermals: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-TCZSlJh321P_NhBsNhDxcuUYiB-Stlg/view?usp=sharing
Note battery life gets better after 2 - 3 days. Same for performance, UI will be smoother after while.
If something doesn't work go in Settings > System > Reset options and reset Wi-Fi, Mobile & Bluetooth.
Why use this?
- Easy installation,
- A lot of bugs fixed,
- Camera preinstalled,
- Root preinstalled,
- Viper4Android preinstalled,
- OS straight from Google.
- many other things.
CREDITS:
- Strix Kernel,
- Beast Vendor,
- S-GSI from LOLINET (ERFANGSI) (https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/gsi/),
- Thanks to everyone on Telegram for overlays and to the entire Treble Community.
Stable for daily use with few minor bugs like hotspot, now playing from google not working.
However most stuff works, padding, rounded corners, google services, all working fine.
UI doesn't crash and there's an overclock and pre-root installed with Viper4Android by default.
What's working:
- Wi-fi connection,
- Internal Storage,
- Camera/Video recording,
- Google Assistant, swipe from corners,
- Double tap to wake,
- Auto-brightness,
- Fingerprint scanner,
- Rooted by default,
- Overclocked by default,
- Safety-net passed by default,
- Playstore login/logout working fine,
- Google Drive fully working,
- Android 10 Full-screen Gestures working,
- Viper4Android installed by default,
- Playground in Camera working by default,
- Dark theme working, in Playstore, GMail etc.
- Night Light, Flashlight, Auto-rotate, Airplane mode,
- Invert Colors, Grayscale, Sounds, GPS, Messages etc...
- Rounded corners, padding, Google assistant, etc...
What's not working:
1) Wi-Fi Hotspot.
Solution: use Bluetooth, USB hotspot.
2) Now playing by Google.
Solution: pretend It doesn't exist.
3) Chrome Freezing
Solution: use other browser f.e Kiwi, Firefox.
- you figure out!

Try removing SIM and re-entering. If nothing worked then sorry you could try Formatting Data? However can't guarantee anything.
I'm using Global Redmi 5 Plus that may be a reason? I can't really think of anything that could cause such an issue.

Dual Apps, no location access after last MIUI Update?

I received the last MIUI update for my phone, MIUI Global 11.0.4.0(QGGMIXM), and after that, location access stoped working on dual apps. In my case, I'm using it to play Pokémon Go with two accounts at the same time, now the second one(the one from Dual Apps) is not detecting my location anymore, I have tried deleting all the Dual Apps data and config with no luck, I even tried a factory reset and it didn't work.
I have a friend who is suffering the same issue with the same phone model and MIUI version, so, I think this might be a general bug.
Any ideas?
Any help would be appreciated.

I received the last MIUI update for my phone, MIUI Global 11.0.4.0(QGGMIXM), and after that, location access stoped working on dual apps. In my case, I'm using it to play Pokémon Go with two accounts at the same time, now the second one(the one from Dual Apps) is not detecting my location anymore, I have tried deleting all the Dual Apps data and config with no luck, I even tried a factory reset and it didn't work.
I have a friend who is suffering the same issue with the same phone model and MIUI version, so, I think this might be a general bug.
Any ideas?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
The MIUI 12 have messed up lot of things one being :
Unable to find the storage for dual apps as you have mentioned above. So just don't worry, we are here to help you out. Until Xiaomi releases the fix for this you can try the following approach step by step:
Download the Xiaomi File Manager (4.2.0.9), you can find it from APKmirror. Here this is the link: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/xiaom...mi-file-manager-4-2-0-9-android-apk-download/
Now just install this apk. If prompted for unable to install from trusted source you may need to enable it via the Developer option by turning this ON -> "Allow Installation from unknown sources"
Now just open the newly installed file manager application and on top left corner, switch the storage to "Storage for Dual Apps"
Bingo!!! Its done now you can access the files of all your dual apps whether its Whatsapp/Facebook/Messenger etc.
Make sure you copy all the files that you need from this storage to an external hard drive/laptop/PC. And once you have taken all the files then you can uninstall this application and re-install the latest version using Google Play Store. You won't have to take a hassle now.
Also if you want to keep using the older version (4.2.0.9) of file manager you can use it without any fear. Please guys if this works for you as it worked for me do support my channel on youtube: https://bit.ly/techNawabs.
Please subscribe as we assure you coolest/exciting/interesting technology related content for gadgets/softwares/tips & tricks/hacks etc.
A video is going to be out soon for this MIUI 12 dual storage bug.....Hoping to see you there on my my channel

Not really true imho, i have op9 pro and that option always worked well with android 11 until tonight when i updated to ob1.
Does magisk work with this beta?
For me Ob1 works .
Oxygen contacts, phone not working on Android 12. I miss it for "Rise the phone to answer a call" gesture.
Also missing the option to restart to recovery (not in developer mode neither). I wanted to wipe cache in recovery.
For the first time since OnePlus 8 Pro & now on 9 Pro i got 5g on settings. See screenshot.
In camera app xPan is moved to Settings.

*#899# will open it, but it's encrypted and most functions are locked.
Now it requires login to OPPO server for decryption (allawnos.com... interesting name, isn't it?)

I think in android 12 there is no more that option
Anyone know if I install open beta version and then stable is released, do I have to rollback to 12 stable (wiping data), or will that just be a regular update?

Thats not the menu i need. Im looking to change bandmode and RAT lock.
I installed the Beta 1, however, I also have Visible wireless, a Verizon MVNO.
I had to go back to Android 11 because of no cell service.
Is this a common issue? I didn't see anywhere that Verizon won't work on Beta 1.
What I saw looked nice on Beta 1 hopefully a fix comes along.
Verizon in my area gives the best coverage TMO & AT&T are only ok.
This beta is not worth installing it is a waste of time, too many bugs. It is better to wait for a stable version.
You will go back to Android 11 for sure
The Good: 5G option is available in the settings.
The Bad: Notification badges on status bar are bugged they don't showup specifically AFWall Firewall Service and Outlook.
Brave Browser doesn't open.
Closing all apps at once is buggy results in unexpected behavior.
Stock Camera app doesn't open have to install Gcam Instead.
Other than those issues it's fine for daily use.

Literally none of those happen on my phone. I'd recommend you factory reset and test again. The only issue I've had so far is this morning when my alarm went off I didn't get the pop-up to dismiss / snooze it and had to restart my phone. Everything else is working as expected

It's in locked menu, so unfortunately no way to use for now...
Should you do a full wipe before installing the beta

RESOLVED IN POST#12
This is the following message I get when I try to unlock my phone
yes, I have done the necessary steps like usb debugging, oem unlocking and adding the Mi account using cellular, yet for some reason I keep getting this error.
I have tried the original cable, a third party one, an amd machine, an intel machine, old and latest versions (at the time of writing) of mi unlock tool, and of course I have the drivers (or else deice won't recognize in the first place.
I have debloated my phone but not to the extreme using adb tools as to not interfere with the Mi services, I only just got rid of things like pubg and other apps you can delete from the phone itself (with the exception of youtube, I used adb to remove it to replace it with ReVanced).
I have been trying this for days, and I get this exact same error regardless, even after adding my mi account in dev options so many times! Can anyone else fiure out what it could be?
I have posted the logs
Try to:
1.- log out for account from phone
2.- log in again and check the permissions,
3.- go to Xiaomi cloud and click find device
4.- return to unlock status and unlock again
or factory reset
or create a new account
Prefer an email address to log in
Unlock bootloader
Xiaomi Community
new.c.mi.com
Apply for unlocking Mi devices
en.miui.com
Unlocking bootloader will factory reset phone anyways.
I'd do it before and try to unlock right after without doing any debugging in between.

mind if you elaborate on what "check the permissions" means? I will try that though, thank you
Ignore it, what is important, the location, also check the security of the account, emergency email.
These are the Xiaomi unlock bootloader steps from the lineageos website
Create a Mi account on Xiaomi’s website. Beware that one account is only allowed to unlock one unique device every 30 days.
Add a phone number to your Mi account.
Insert a SIM into your phone.
Enable developer options in Settings > About Phone by repeatedly tapping MIUI Version.
Link the device to your Mi account in Settings > Additional settings > Developer options > Mi Unlock status.
Download the Mi Unlock app (Windows is required to run the app).
Run the Mi Unlock app and follow the instructions provided by the app. It may tell you that you have to wait up to 30 days. If it does so, please wait the quoted amount of time before continuing to the next step!
After device and Mi account are successfully verified, the bootloader should be unlocked.

alright, well it says my region is in the UK (even though I am not?) and I definitely did not use a vpn
I think I might try to make a new account altogether somehow, however I did use it to unlock my X3 pro all the way in 2021

it appears so, prior to this post I did the factory reset, and signing in and out of my account using email and turning on mi cloud (and turning off find my device) didn't seem to work

Maybe you deleted an essential app with ADB.
Try to download the package via the updater to reinstall the rom.

maybe, though I highly doubt since I just removed youtube (adb shell && pm uninstall --user 0 com.google.android.youtube)
regardless I will give that a shot as well
I had already made a new account so I tried it, and finally it worked
thanks guys, guess I'll come back in a week with a sick custom rom

This is good news.
Did you use a different sim/phone number when making a new account?
I've also been having similar issues on my thread

surprisingly I didn't
to elaborate, I removed/sign out the account from my device, deleted the account from their site, made a new one (with a different email to be safe, and a wildly different name) and kept the same phone number for my convenience
and it somehow just worked, so yeah give it a shot man

What do you mean deleted the account from their site?
Like fully delete my account and all the data? because I have like 10 years of data synced :/
and what's super weird is that I used my old account to unlock a poco X3 pro back in 2021 but it didn't work now in 2023
but a new account with the same phone did work
I must add that when I made the new account I DID NOT ADD THE NUMBER IMMEDIATELY
I added the number when it asked me to, when adding the device to the mi account before going to fastboot
