How to fully bootloader and root the Redmi Note 8 Pro - Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion

If this belongs in another location please move it for me. This is instructions for twrp install and how I did it with so many questions about it.
First by no means am I the developer of the links I provided.
I don't remember where I got them but with plenty of research through different sites and finding the right downloads, I successfully completed everything perfectly with both twrp and root sticking.
This process worked perfectly on my International Redmi Note 8 Pro with Global Miui 11.
1. Unlock the bootloader by following these steps:
Start developer mode by going to: Open settings - About phone - click on Miui version 7 times
Go back to settings page and scroll to Additional settings - Developer mode will be on the bottom
Open Developer mode and tick OEM Unlocking and USB Debugging
Under WebView Implementation you will see Mi Unlock Status
Open Mi Unlock Status - Agree on Permissions Required and Add account and device
2. Go to https://en.miui.com/unlock/ and register your device with your mi account information and wait 168 hours till bootloader unlock is allowed. When time comes around you can unlock by using https://www.xiaomigeek.com/download-mi-flash-unlock-tool.html tool which you can download here.
3. After your device is unlocked now will be the fun part.
4. Download Twrp.img - [url]https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-TwMZERIzwoq3KOQ5C3_3MPU5cZwSU0s/view?usp=sharing[/URL]
5. Download Magisk from ******************
6. Make sure ADB 15 second installer is installed on your computer prior to step 7. - [url]https://androidmtk.com/download-15-seconds-adb-installer[/URL]
7. Boot to fastboot by powering down - press and hold both power and volume down till fastboot xiaomi rabbit comes up.
8. Go to C Drive and locate adb folder - open up the folder - make sure nothing is highlighted and while having your mouse in the center of the folder window - press shift and right click. This will open a popup for PowerShell.
9. Type in fastboot flash recovery and drag the twrp file to the PowerShell window where ever you placed the file.
10. Most important press volume down and power until fastboot shuts down and quickly pressed the volume up. Do not release the power up until twrp comes up twice. After the second time you can release the volume up button.
11. Most likely the twrp will be in Chinese, just choose English and before swiping make sure the read only is ticked. Now you will be on the main twrp screen.
12. Go to mount and choose Data, system, vendor, cust, nvdata, and sd card - press home.
13. Go to advanced - and tick Close AVB2.0 and swipe
14. Go to File Manager and click on system_root, system, and on the bottom you will see a file above vender regarding to booting recovery or something like that. Click on that file and choose delete. This will stop MIUI from reinstalling stock recovery.
15. Back out of the file manager and choose install root.
16. Now you should be safe to reboot the phone without bootlooping.
17. Once you bootup will see Magisk on your second screen. Make sure you update the magisk software and update the magisk root file. I chose direct install and reboot which worked perfectly.
18. After you installed the updated magisk, make sure you go to app info for magisk and allow all permissions. MIUI locks a lot of stuff down but I was able to get everything working perfectly thanks for the long time researching everywhere.
19. If you want to reinstall MIUI 10.4.1 I included this file as well which will include the .bat files to restore your phone - I will update the link once it is uploaded.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask and I will do my best to help out.
Thank you again and happy rooting.

[17Jun20][Guide] [P/Q]How to root Note10/Note 10+ & Flash TWRP (Exynos only)

How to Root Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ & Flash TWRP (Exynos Only)
NOTICE :
Before you move further, make clear that rooting device -
- Your warranty will be void
- Some of functions may not work on rooted device, some function may get back with un rooting, some may never.
- All your data on device will be lost
- Flashing custom binaries may brick (Usually soft but can be hard brick too) your device, so follow it on your own risk!
If you are ready with condition, move further -
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Important : Since android Q, there is changes in rooting process, specially if you needs root with TWRP, So here I am dividing this guide in two parts.
1.Root with self preparing files (No TWRP) - Here you needs to patch stock files yourself. No TWRP installed.
2.Root with TWRP - You needs to just flash pre-patched files, Here you needs to have ROM installed same base as per files available. Though mostly latest verson will be available.
PART 1 : (Root Pie/Q base with magisk with patching files yourself, No TWRP)
Before moving to root device, must read every single instruction given below as any small mistake can lead to fail to achieve root or may brick the device.
A.Preparing Root files
You need to patch file to flash using Odin to root device.
1. Download stock firmware for your device (google search will give you many sites to download it) some common are e.g. Sammobile, Samfirmware tool)
you need to download file according your region and model (Dial *#1234# will give you details of existing firmware, download accordingly)
2. Once you finish download, extract files and keep all files on PC. From extracted files a file with name AP_[device_model_sw_ver].tar.md5 copy to your device.
3.Download Latest Magisk Manager and Install to your device
4.Open Magisk Manager - Magisk (first one) - Install - select to "Select and Patch file" - Navigate file you have copied to device (AP_[device_model_sw_ver].tar.md5)
5.Magisk Manager will patch the whole firmware file and store the output to [Internal Storage]/Download/magisk_patched.tar
6.Copy patched file magisk_patched.tar to Your PC
7.Download latest Odin (one is attached to end of this post) and extract to a folder on PC (I recommend on desktop)
Now next step is to modification on device
B. Unlocking Bootloader
This is a basic step to root device. Go to settings - about phone - Software Information - tap multiple times on "Build number" - This will open developer option.
Now in settings at the end, you will have new option "Developer options" - look for OEM unlocking - Enable it.
(PS : If you don't see this option then you may need to wait up to 7 days or more to appear or may be on some operator you will get it never. Without this option you can not root your device, sorry!)
Once you have enable OEM unlock option, switch off your device and reboot to download mode.
To put device in download mode - Press Volume Up & then Press Volume Down (Keep holding both) and connect device to PC with USB cable
When device start to download mode,long press volume up to unlock the bootloader. This will wipe your data and automatically reboot
Now let finish setup and again enable developer options (as said above), and confirm that the OEM unlocking option exists and grayed out!
If it is not then you can not root device!
Once you see this option and greyed out, you are ready to flash custom binary and root your device
C.Installation (Flashing) custom binaries
1. Switch off the device and reboot to download mode (As said earlier) and select volume up to continue
2. Open Odin (downloaded from above instruction) as administrator
Select magisk_patched.tar file you have patched (as above instruction copied to PC) for AP tab of Odin
Select BL,CP and CSC file (Extract from stock firmware you have downloaded) with according respective tab of Odin (This is important, DON'T flash only magisk_patched.tar )
3.From Odin option - uncheck Auto Reboot option
4.Now start flashing and wait till it finish. When you see a PASS sign on Odin, disconnect device.
Now magisk is successfully finished but yet you need to follow instructions below.
D. Factory reset & Boot with magisk
After disconnecting device, keep holding Vol down + Side key to exit from download mode.
Here is very important - when you see device reboot As soon as the screen turns off, immediately press Volume Up + Side Key to boot to recovery partition. continue pressing the volume up button until you see the stock recovery screen.
In the stock recovery menu, use volume buttons to navigate through menus, and the power button to select the option. Select Wipe data/factory reset to wipe the data of the device.
Select Reboot system now, and immediately press Volume Up + Side Key. After seeing the bootloader warning screen, release all buttons so it can boot to the system.
The device will automatically reboot for the first time it boots. This is completely normal and done by design.After the device is booted up, do the usual initial setup. You shall see Magisk Manager in your app drawer; if not, manually install the APK you downloaded and continue to the next step. The app would be a stub and it shall automatically upgrade to the full Magisk Manager when you open it.
Magisk Manager will ask to do additional setups. Let it do its job and the app will automatically reboot your device.
Voila! Enjoy Magisk
PART 2 : (Root Q base with TWRP)
This requires to have your device on same base as per base of pre-patch files. I am giving link below of my ROM
http://www.mediafire.com/folder/d4ugie4yadxu6/N975F - Click link - First select your device (N970/N975/N976) - download file Instructions_Root_TWRP_BootloopFix.pdf
This file have complete details about how to root with stock recovery/TWRP. Also all required patched files will be available in "Q" folder of your device section,
Also "Q" folder have file BASE_N97*.txt - Name of this file indicates Model and base used for patched files, you should have same base installed.
Important :
Due to the fact that some devices no longer uses ramdisk in boot images, Magisk has no choice but to be installed in the recovery partition. For these devices, you will have to boot to recovery every time if you want Magisk. Since both Magisk and recovery lives in the same partition, what you actually end up getting when you choose to boot to recovery will be determined by how long you press volume up.
(Powering up normally) → (System with NO Magisk)
(OEM Recovery Key Combo) → (Splash screen) → (Release all buttons) → (System with Magisk)
(OEM Recovery Key Combo) → (Splash screen) → (Keep pressing volume up) → (Actual recovery)

Happy rooting!
Xposed
Just tried and eDxposed working fine.
- Install EdXposed installer
- from magisk download install Ritu-core module
- from magisk download install Ritu - EDxposed (yahfa)
Done.
We strongly recommend to make EFS backup as soon as you root device and store it to safer place
Don't you lose some Samsung function when you root and even relock the bootloader?

Nice, already patched the rom to flash with odin. What is the button combination for recovery ?
Did that for a friend of mine on the S10e, guess the steps are all the same ??
Nice, so you will start to make roms ?

So far with the SD when you go into developer mode there is no OEM unlock and I doubt it will show up later.
Don't know what is wrong. I have OEM turned on, Downloaded latest magisk manager, flashed all 4 parts. It did not work. If I flash stock, all is fine. Any clues ?

6. Now, go back to the main screen of Setting, and then tap on Software update.
7. Disable the option ‘Download updates automatically‘.
8. Tap on ‘Download updates manually‘ option, but it will give you an error because of the wrong date, so it’s fine.

If it is not then you can not root device!
Once you see this option and greyed out, you are ready to flash custom binary and root your device.2. setup the phone by skipping the wizard.
B. Disabling Android Verified Boot
1. Reboot to DOWNLOAD mode.
2. Download Odin 3.14.4 or newer and make sure Samsung USB drivers are installed.
3. Open Odin and put the vbmeta_disabled.tar into USERDATA slot and click "Start"
4. Your device will reboot but it will not boot into system as vbmeta signature has changed.
5. Your device will reboot into RECOVERY mode automatically and prompt "You have to reset your device to factory settings". Use "Volume Up" or "Volume Down" button to move and "Power" button to select. Confirm and reset the device to factory settings.
6. This is the last time the data on the device has to be cleared. Afterwards, if you don't re-lock bootloader or re-enable the Android Verified Boot, you will not lose your data. Be aware, a stock firmware package contains a Android Verified Boot Metadata Image (vbmeta.img) with verifications enabled. You will need to flash the vbmeta_disable image (put into USERDATA slot) along with the stock firmware (use BL, AP, CP, CSC slots) to make sure AVB is not re-enabled and the data is preserved.
C. Flashing TWRP/Magisk

Important :
Due to the fact that some devices no longer uses ramdisk in boot images, Magisk has no choice but to be installed in the recovery partition.

Hi
Thanks for putting out the details guide!
I followed the steps carefully but got stuck at step 12 - the device boots to download mode and says: "error verifying vbmeta image..."
Luckily I was able to flash it back to stock - but the magisk_patched.tar looks faulty (I copied it using adb) so no root for me
Any ideas?

Unplug USB and replug it then make sure the size of tar file almost the same as origin.
for step 6, can we transfer the file via SD card?

Flash AP file only for some reason the BL tar include vbmeta.img but you can patch it too.
I also hit the same problem that soft-brick my phone.. just to confirm, the AP.md5 file u said to use, its name is this? AP_A105GDXU2ASE3_CL15918313_QB23932289_REV00_user_low_ship_meta_OS9.tar

Hey dude,
Thanks for the update, I have a problem with step 7
7) Open Magisk Manager - Magisk (first one) - Install - select to "Select and Patch file" - Navigate file you have copied to device (BL_[device_model_sw_ver].tar.md5).
I followed but magisk says No Boot image found, process error, installation failed

My bad I didnt test this, the BL file contain vbmeta.img and need to be patched. Will try to find better solution.
You can flash stock BL file only then reboot again to bootloader and flash the rest files.
I see.. no worries.. I tried to flash the patched ap file with the stock bl, it soft brinked my phone the last time I did it.. anyway, I will wait for your workaround..
Appreciate your help!

I think it would be helpful to users if there were a single multi-disabler for all Samsung devices. To that end, I've incorporated your changes for the A10 into my multidisabler and attached a test version to this posting.
Will you please test it? If it works for you, I'll issue a new release.

Thanks. In your case, it's easier now if you just verify that the script I attached is working, since I've already integrated the changes you made in your clone.
Anyone who wants multidisabler support for a new device, however, can either send me a pull request against the latest code, or run the following script on a live, rooted device:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
getprop ro.boot.bootloader
echo --
ls -l /vendor/etc/init/pa_daemon*.rc /vendor/etc/fstab.exynos*
echo --
cat /vendor/etc/fstab.exynos*
echo --
su -c cat /init.rc
Hi dude..
I tried it.. unfortunately I still have problems.. here are some of the problems
1) my 7zip does not allow me to mod the BL files within the md5 extension, so I extracted them out and replaced the file manually then zip it to Tar.. (the VBmeta file is only 1kb) is that right?
2) after flashing via odin, I did a reboot, I encountered a VBMEta error, "Error verifying vbmeta image" Verification_disabled bit is (cant see it, block by the camera module)
In the end, i restored the firmware and got everything back.

Try using this vbmeta.img (inside the tar file). It worked for me on the A20 with similar error. This file normally seems to be a checksum checker and if it doesn't match what the phone wants to see it gives you that error. But this file was modified to essentially be blank so there is nothing to give the phone an error.

Not working, bootloop. To fix bootloop, need to flash original boot.img - need to put original boot.img from ROM we have in adb folder and run command "fastboot flash boot boot.img".
Before posting such tutorials I suggest to check is it even working, because on chinese version of device this will NOT WORK.

When signing up for this website you sign a waiver that you are the sole person responsible for your device. Bootloops too.
Don't wanna have it bricked ? Don't mess with it.
Nobody's telling you to do that.
How about some gratitude and appreciation for those who take the time and trouble looking for a solution. Sponging off others work and whingening about it ?
Show some manners.

What time, what solution?! Method posted by OP for this device is known for weeks already... And its just copied solution from other tutorials for older Xiaomi phones... I can bet that OP even didn't check it and I won't be surprised if he even don't have this phone... Besides, I still don't have solid proof that it works, even on global/EU version of device.
in the end this tutorial is working or not on global?

[Guide] Root Galaxy A10 Magisk prenormal rmm/kg state (October Patch- later)

Hi All this is just a quick tutorial to help you all root your devices, on later firmwares
This 100% works ive done it over and over without any problems. I am currently on october patch latest firmware for my A105FN. As you may know Samsung have now added extra security meaning even if you have already unlocked your bootloader after you patch the firmware with magisk, flash patched firmware and reboot you will be greeted with that dreadfull message, Only official binaries allowed and your device will be locked and wont boot untill you reflash stock firmware again. The below will help get you out of the prenormal kg state, and save's you a 7 days waiting period as we dont have any TWRP available for our device at this time. Also note due to the extra security magisk cant be flashed with the whole firmware no more, as each time you flash the firmware your back at square 1.
Note: You will need 7-zip - google is your freind
1. Download odin: https://odindownloader.com/download/odin3-v3-13-3.
2. download the latest stock firmware for your device via SamMobile
3. Download latest Magisk Manager - https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445/amp/
4. Flash latest firmware via odin and let device boot up and finish setting up.
5. Grab Your Firmware AP_A105FXXXX.tar.md5 remove the md5 so its a tar file makes it easier to work with. Copy it to your device storage.
6. Install latest magisk manager, and open check advanced settings to make sure recovery is checked, select install image / patch image and select the AP file you put on your device, magisk will patch and save as magisk_patched on your internal storage. Copy this back to your pc and extract it.
7. Download this https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4818715&d=1568308074 thanks to @droidzer1 and extract the vbmeta.img.
8. Make a new folder on you pc it's temporary so you know where your files are. From the Ap magisk_patch.tar you extracted, copy the boot.img, recovery.img, and the downloaded vbmeta.img from step 7. And place them in the new folder you created, using your mouse select all 3 and right click select 7-zip add to archive, select tar format and name it magisk.tar.
9. Now we have all the files ready back to your device, if your bootloader is already unlocked skip this step and move to the next. For those that havent unlocked there bootloader go to settings - about phone - Software Information - tap multiple times on "Build number" - This will open developer option.
Now in settings at the end, you will have new option "Developer options" - look for OEM unlocking - Enable it, if the OEM switch is not there proceed to step 10. If it is and you enabled it it might ask you to factory reset if not it will be this way to complete the unlock bootloader.......
switch off your device and reboot to download mode.
To put device in download mode - Press Volume Up & then Press Volume Down (Keep holding both) and connect device to PC with USB cable
When device start to download mode, long press volume up to unlock the bootloader. This will wipe your data and automatically reboot.
10. Remove any account you have on your device go to settings, look for time and date automatic time zones, turn it off and set date back 8 days from now (example 30th today change date to 22nd) restart device. Now go straight back into automatic time zones settings and turn it back on. Again reboot device, when device reboots turn it off. You can now enter download mode and it should say checking instead of prenormal that means you good to go. Those of you that had no OEM switch in developer mode please now check.... if it's there enable it and go back to step 10 unlocking bootloader then proceed to step 11.
11. Open odin and select in the ap tab the magisk.tar you created earlier. Plug in your usb whilst holding vol-up and vol-down together to boot into download, press vol-up to proceed. Press start on odin and soon as it finishes and device reboots and you see the bootloader message hold power and vol-up until into stock recovery, select wipe factory reset then select reboot device, this the same as soon as you see bootloader unlocked message hold power and the vol-up together this time count to 7.... and release. Phone wont boot it will go blackscreen and reboot, dont worry this is normal, again do the exact same at bootloader unlocked msg screen hold power and vol-up count to 7... release, now phone will boot and you can set it up.
Note: you will need to reinstall magisk manager and on 1st open it will ask do to additional setup, let it do its thing, then device will reboot,
Remeber every time your device reboots you will have to do the power and vol-up to boot system with root.
I hope this guide help you and a big thank you to @afaneh92 for his original guide

No the twrp that was made for our device, wont work with new versions of magisk, or any newer firmware we are going to have to wait until the the new kernel source is released by samsung unfortunatly, its impossible to say when or if they do.... so its just root for now.
