Rooting - Xiaomi Mi 10T / 10T Pro Questions & Answers

Is it possible to root Xiaomi devices especially this one?
Thanks in advance

Of course, I think that all Xiaomi phones has the option to unlock bootloader so you should be able to root it.
I am gonna buy Mi 10T Pro as soon as it gets released.
I am looking for one and a half month to buy a phone but none has been interesting enough, this is the first phone that fits my budget and is giving me the wow factor.

Any idea how to root the phone?

Waiting for my phone arrive, and then I make root for it.

HI
Make sure if you are buying the Mi 10T Pro version .... .... .... Get the GLOBAL version and also depending your country of origin whether Xiaomi do supply GLOBAL version!
As long as you have global version you have no problem to unlock the bootloader and getting it rooted as well.
Obviously, then you can get the download mode (adb fastboot mode) to install your TWRP recovery trwp.img file and do check where you can get the file soonest possible.
So the steps to unlock bootloader will be:
1. As long as you can download the twrp.img and save it in your computer in your adb folder (rename the recovery file to twrp.img) ;
2. Go to your phone setting to enable Developer option and check your OEM unlocking (after you have enabled the developer options);
3. Bind you Mi Account in the phone setting with your Mi 10T Pro phone (under your phone setting) .. ... ... if you don't have one then you need to create one with Xiaomi account;
4. Make sure you have all the drivers set up in your microsoft windows 7, 8 or 10 version together with ADB (fastboot mode) and your USB driver for windows OS, to communicate with your Mi 10T Pro phone;
5. Download the the ADB_1.4.2 set up, and Microsoft windows 7, 8 or 10 USB driver to set up properly (google around you so be able to find them) and Mi unlock Tool ... ... miflash_unlock-en-3.3.525.23.zip to unlock your bootloader;
6. Everything set then switch off of your smartphone! Then hold on to your Vol down key (-) and power button simultaneously to boot up into download mode. Hook up your phone with USB cable one end your phone and the other end USB cable to your computer;
7. Enable abd fastboot mode from the same folder in your computer (where you firstly installed to) and also make sure your twrp.img file must also be in the same folder. (Impt: this file will be installed through fastboot to boot up from twrp recovery mode);
8. Follow the screen to unlock your bootloader; and
9. Bingo!!! You already have your bootloader unlocked done!! - -
Cheers <) <)

Patch boot.img via magisk manager and flash it through fastboot

any developers getting hands-on this device for their Custom ROM support?

I can confirm you can unlock the usual way for Mi phones, however you will have to wait before you can do so.
I enabled the phone for unlocking, but when trying was notified to wait "165 hours" before trying again.
The last time I did this (mi 9) I actually only had to wait a few days.

Yeah, 168 hours is the minimum nowadays for any Xiaomi/Redmi/Poco device.
except for those who has an authorized mi account to have any device be unlocked without a wait period.

Has anyone tried this yet? In theory it should work. I'm still waiting for my Mi 10t to arrive so I can't test it yet

Mine arrived unlocked (for testing purposes), and I fiddled a bit with it, but the magisk manager didn't work, had to reflash a soft brick

Yes, tried it right after unlocking my bootloader. Working flawlessly. Safetynet failed nonetheless. Just make sure you patch the correct boot image for your rom. Mine was the euro (EEA) rom so I downloaded that one.

bricked mi max(?)

hello everybody.
i got a 3/64gb mi max and tried to flash twrp and the miui 8 eu version.
For some reason the phone bricked (flashing the MI logo and then nothing).
i managed to get it on edl mode, i downloaded the official chinese and eu roms but no matter which one i try to flash i get this message and it doesnt go on after that.
any suggestions ?
the phone goes into EDL mode, and also goes into fastboot mode when i keep the vol - and power button. It's working but i can't flash the official rom cause of this message and when i try to flash TWRP, the screen flashes the MI logo and then nothing.
Same problem I had when flashing the latest EU ROM using TWRP with a locked bootloader. Here's what I did to fix it:
1. Make sure you have the latest Qualcomm USB drivers installed
2. Start up Miflash, make sure the right fastboot package is selected
3. Connect your phone to the PC. Hold down Power, Vol- and Vol+ together until you get a short vibration.
4. Check Windows Device Manager. Under Ports, you should see a Qualcomm 9008 QDLoader device. If you see a 9000 port or whatever, disconnect the phone, reconnect it and hold down all three buttons again.
5. Press Refresh in Miflash, you should see a COM10 device. Flashing should be successful.

Just tried it. Same message shows up unfortunately
I have the same Problem, bat i use a old Version of Mi Flash. IT works better
Gesendet von meinem Mi Max mit Tapatalk
May i know what windows version you're using it..?, coz old version of MiFlash tool doesn't support running under 32bit system.
Maybe you can try using latest version of MiFlash tool..
You can download it from here..
If official link above doesn't work..just download from here..
Hope it's help..
You must also mark option "Flash all" in MiFlesh.
There is a solution. I have tried everything but mistake was to obvious to posiible really. I was using wrong ROM version to flash it. Had "can not read from port ..." or "can not received hello packet data".
Firts of all download miflash beta. Then check your processor type because this is what define your rom. I thought that my Mi Max 64GB is a hydrogen ROM. Wasted because of that about 30 hours of my precious life Then I realised that my ROM is helium. I downloaded helium_global_images_V8.1.9.0.MBDMIDI_20170103
Flashed it for a first time.

[Help needed from Devs] Note 5 Pro Unbrick Project

A BIG SORRY for a long post. But I am sure its worth reading step by step. Because many peoples are stucked in same situation, no straight forward solution for this issue is available till now. All solutions are based on 50/50 success ratio.
I think if my issue is resolved then it can become WORLD's FIRST SOLUTION to UNBRICK NOTE 5 PRO with 100/100 success ratio.
About Me: I am an ordinary Android user since years. I know how to root and install TWRP and Custom ROMs on any Android Phone. I am not a Developer, every thing discussed here is purely gained by experiments by playing with my phone.
After playing with my bricked phone I reach at a point where I am hopeless and I think at this stage a Developer can help me only, who have deep knowledge of android OS. That's why I called Devs to help me.
About Phone I have Note 5 Pro Global (whyred)M1803E7SG. Phone is under warranty but unfortunately Front Glass of my phone is broken few months ago but still working, so Mi Service Center refused to accept my phone under warranty due to broken Front Glass. Tried to repair my phone by a local Phone Service Shop, thay have all professional tools like UMT, Avangers, MedusaPro etc. but they were also unable to repair my phone. Now I have no option left other than I should repair it by myself.
Phone was on ARB4, was working fine. Bootloader Unlocked and I have rooted it long time ago and was playing with it since it is rooted by flashing different Custom ROMs on daily basis.
Currently phone was working fine on Masik X 4.1 ROM. Some days ago I flashed Masik X 5.0 ROM via TWRP on my phone and after reboot phone became dead and went to EDL 9008 mode. I noticed that I flashed Masik X 5.0 for Note 6 Pro (tulip) ROM on it mistakenly.
Journey Stats Here:
1 - After bricking my phone I tried to flash fastboot ROM for whyred in EDL mode, phone flashed successfully but still stucked in EDL mode. Tried all fastboot ROMs from ARB2 to ARB4 but still no sign of life, phone was not coming out of EDL mode. Also tried "test anti4.zip" files as well but phone is still in EDL mode after a successful flashing.
2 -After that I tried to flash fastboot ROM of Note 6 Pro (tulip) in EDL mode, after flashing complete when I tried to turn ON my phone, I noticed that phone try to start with vibrate and charging light blinks for a while but nothing on Screen and phone dead again. I checked with USB cable attached to laptop, nothing appear in Device Manager. Here I opened my phone and bring it to EDL mode via Test Point method.
3 - Then after searching on internet I saw on a forum where another person was in same situation. He mentioned his phone display was turning ON on a Mi 6X (wayne) ROM but with "Press any key to shutdown" message on screen. So tried same with Mi 6X (wayne) ROM. Phone is turning ON with "Press any key to shutdown". So I started playing with Mi 6X ROM. I started replacing Mi 6X ROM file with Note 5 Pro files one by one and flashing my phone again and again with every one new file (took so many hours in playing with my phone:crying. Initially had many issues like: missing keymaster64.mbn file as Mi 6X uses keymaster64.mbn but Note 5 Pro is using keymaster.mbn file (so corrected .xml and .bat files according to need), Unable to mount Persist partition in TWRP (corrected it by terminal method in TWRP by using command "make_ext4fs /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/persist", phone was going to Fastboot for a while, Not going to recovery mode, No USB detection on laptop in Device Manager. Fastboot lasts for a half second and then phone goes off.
In short at the end finally I noticed only three files "abl.elf, pmic.elf, xbl.elf" from Mi 6X ROM are responsible for turning my phone ON.
4 - So I replaced "abl.elf, pmic.elf, xbl.elf" files from Mi 6X ROM with Note 5 Pro ROM files and flashed my phone with this new modified ROM in EDL mode. Phone turned on without any "Press any key to shutdown" message on screen. Now phone can go to fastboot mode and detected on USB on my laptop. But not going to Recovery mode, after pressing Vol UP + Power Button, only a black screen and nothing happening on my laptop Device Manager (no driver at all). In fastboot mode I flashed "PitchBlack-whyred-2.9.0-20190501-1030-OFFICIAL" recovery (initially I tried TWRP Recovery for whyred but in TWRP phone was not detected as MTP device on my laptop, so I used Pitchblack Recovery) and after issuing boot command to recovery.img I can go to Pitchblack recovery mode, phone detected on USB port as "Note 5 Pro", MTP drive appear in My Computer, I can copy/paste files in phone Storage. In Recovery mode I flashed Official "miui_HMNote5Global_V10.3.1.0.PEIMIXM_d4d2c9f2aa_9.0" ROM. Phone flashed successfully but after reboot phone went to EDL mode again. So I revived it again with modified ROM.
5 - After revival I tried to boot phone in normal way, I noticed that MI Splash screen is blinking with behavior: Splash screen appears fine for a while and on second blink Screen is inverted then 3rd blink Screen fine and 4th blink screen inverted and so on till I reach to MIUI10 welcome screen. On welcome screen the behavior is same like once fine then inverted. But here my touch screen is not working, I can't go after this screen. Phone is not allowing to touch Next button. I can charge my phone with charger connected. Phone detected as "Note 5 Pro" on my laptop.
6 - I rebooted phone to fastboot mode, tried to flash "whyred_global_images_V10.3.1.0.PEIMIXM_20190522.0000.00_9.0_global_8201319a7e" with MiFlash but can't flash due to "Product Mismatch" warning by MiFlash. Tried Mi 6X ROM and MiFlash started flashing fine.
7 - Then I flashed "boot.img, recovery.img, cust.img, system.img" files by using fastboot flash xx xxx.img commands for Note 5 Pro. Fastboot flashed all files successfully. But after rebooting phone behavior is same like blinking inverted screen and touch not working.
8 - Now I am helpless at this stage. Tried all ways to revive my phone. Nothing else is remaining as I think. No other file is remaining which I can try.
HELP REQUIRED FROM A Developer
I reached on a stage where my phone is now "Semi Unbricked" but is still useless for me. But I hope some Developer can help me to revive my phone.
My Note 5 Pro is converted to Mi 6X but touch screen is not working. Screen is working fine in Pitchblack Recovery mode, phone is responding in Fastboot mode but as it is the fastboot mode of Mi 6X on a Note 5 Pro so it is useless for my phone.
Kindly assist me further so I can replace Mi 6X fastboot with original Note 5 Pro fastboot so that I can flash Note 5 Pro ROM on it.
Waiting for a very positive and prompt reply.
Regards!
Any body knows about display/touch driver files inside Android OS???
My touch screen is not working at all on MIUI Welcome screen. I want to embed Display Driver files in ROM so I can go forward ahead of this Welcome Screen.
I have tried so many ROMs from different Xiaomi models, replaced so many files one by one, spent too much time on doing this all. But the only combination of files works mentioned below:
abl.elf (must be from wayne ROM)
pmic.elf (must be from wayne or tulip ROMs, both working)
xbl.elf (must be from wayne ROM)
All other files from whyred ROM are OK to flash to bring my phone alive.
ROMs Used:
whyred_global_images_V10.3.1.0.PEIMIXM_20190522.0000.00_9.0_global_8201319a7e
wayne_images_V10.3.3.0.PDCCNXM_20190514.0000.00_9.0_cn_1d4725ac4d
tulip_global_images_V10.3.2.0.PEKMIXM_20190426.0000.00_9.0_global_2264f9bd86
Now I concluded all this mess as: I can never go back to whyred original ROM. The only way left is to use my phone as a Mi 6X by name if touch screen of my mobile gets start working.
Some body please help me in replacing Display Driver files of whyred with wayne files.
Kindly assist me to pass through this step. I want to see what's working and what's not after MIUI Welcome Screen. e.g. IMEI, BT, WIFI, SOUND, CALL etc......
Please help

My XIAOMI MI A2 went to 0% and now it has a bootloop android one

I was playing normally the phone discharged turned off, and when I connect it only shows the android one screen over and over, the led that shows that it's charging doesn't turns on, I have nothing weird installed, didn't even knew about fastboot or roms, or anything like that until 15 minutes ago, so the fastboot options are not and cannot be activated, does it have a solution? do I just let it be connected for a few hours and try again, or what, i'm a noob on this matters so I don't know what to do. Thanks

The fastboot screen shows, but I can't do anything, and if I connect it to my PC after watching somethings like going to CMD and trying some commands the console doesn't even recognize those commands, maybe I have to install something for it to read it? I don't know, if this helps in anyway, I appreciate it.

No I didn't enable the USB debugging, and no I haven't been able to do it, the mi flash program needs extra installations but always sends an error message and closes, I really don't know how to do this kind of things, I tried with a program called MiFlash Unlock, but it needs a Xiaomi account connected with the number and I don't have one, I really don't know what to do from here, plus I've read that I need the rom to install and don't know where can I find it and which one is the one that I need to install.
Once again thanks and if someone can help me further than this is appreciated

Anyway you can't do many things although you should have enabled USB debugging atleast you decided to unlock device but fastboot is (almost) useless for device with locked boatloader.
The first thing I do no matter I don't think to root or modify my device is enabling USB debugging just to have more options to recover from an eventual brick.
Now try to do the next before to go to the other option; try to enter to recovery from device off, using volume up + power for some seconds then format/factory reset and let us know what happened.

Ok, I supposed it, some partitions get corrupted while device fails to reboot.
Your last solution is using EDL mode, you will find many tutorials on YouTube to put device in this mode using test point method, then flashing the official stock rom through MiFlash tool.
To take in account MiFlash tool doesn´t work while in fastboot mode on devices with locked bootloaders so you have to use it in EDL (Emergency DownLoad) mode, no other workaround known on that. (for this model)

Stuck on redmi note 8T logo (How to recover personal files in internal storage? - Bootloader closed)

After turning off phone with battery 1%, it was charged normally.
Later at turning phone on it got stuck on logo and didnt boot.
Redmi note 8T (two years old, worked always very well) , factory miui 10, Android 9... So bootloader closed and debugging USB disabled.
Recovery mode: pressing reboot to system doesnt work, stuck again on logo.
Fastboot works only, after 10-15 minutes on this mode phone turns automatically off.
Dont wanna select wipe on recovery, as I wanna recover personal files on internal phone storage.
Phone serial number is recognized by Linux PC, and possible to boot phone vía fastboot and terminal commands, but does the same behaviour.
The question:
IS IT POSSIBLE TO RECOVER PERSONAL DATA (without wiping all)?
If Yes... What way? And what way on Linux PC?

a phone with a locked bootloader is a wall
and even if you manage to recover your files they will be encrypted
You mean that even though internal memory were extracted and analyzed... data could not be read for being Android 9 encrypted?
So it's not worth to take it to service center...

i don't think so, they will try reinstalling miui which you can do your self ...
With the help of XiaoMiTool V2 (unofficial) compatible with Linux I fixed the brick. It wiped all the internal memory but the flash of stock willow fixed the soft brick.
There's a small mistake on the list of phones of the tool... You must choose Redmi 8T. And the phone was reset as new from factory. Miui 11 now.
This tool was developed by an Italian and allows to flash stock rom with a lock bootloader and usb debugging disabled.
In case it may help someone with same issue. Just need a computer and connect to phone via usb cable on fastboot mode. Of course ADB & Fastboot tools must be installed on pc.
did you recover the files? or did they get deleted?

Question How to enter brom mode on Xiaomi Pad 5 (Nabu)?

Hi, I wanna flash a boot.img on my Mi Pad 5 with a locked bootloader.
I tried everything to get into brom mode, didn't work.
Please help.
First of all, you can't flash images with a locked bootloader. Second, this device has a Qualcomm processor, so there's no brom mode (which is found on MediaTek devices), you'll need to unlock the bootloader.
