I dont think you need root specifically but you will most likely need to unlock your bootloader as per the below post (unless for official roms which can be flashed using SP flash tools)

Hi all, after reading all the reviews I'm going to take the plunge on a RN4, what I've had trouble with is the pricing between different websites, I've found some that offer Global ROM but at a price & I'm looking for Grey colour which also seems to come at a premium.

After much deliberation & browsing I've finally settled on TO2C.com as they offer the Global ROM & any colour variation with 3GB Ram/64GB Rom for $179.99 flat rate & around $25 cheaper than what I can find.

I reviewed:

Honorbuy

Geekbuying

Xiaomi device.com

Zapals.com

Coolicool

to2c.com

Let's just hope they offer good service & prompt delivery & I'll report back.

Anyway hope this helps others.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] gsmyth:
Thanks, will wait to see how you get on. I ordered via geekbuying last week, Im uk based and purchased from the Spain warehouse. I have received confirmation it has shipped and it looks like it departed Spain today, so it may arrive this week at some stage, but will update here as soon as it does. I paid £188 (£178+£10 shipping) in total for the grey 64GB/3GB model, so its dearer than just ordering with free shipping from China, but there is the risk of vat/customs charges which could be £30-40 and the added shipping time which would likely be 3-4 weeks.

Also requested bootloader unlock permission from Xiaomi on Fri 25th Nov and it was granted last night. After reading what others had written, I posted a few times on the official MIUI forums which is supposed to help with speeding the process up. Not sure if I will unlock it or not, but probably will as soon as I get it, once its done thats it.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Wilderone:
So with the bootloader unlock permission do you need the IMEI # ? To send to Xiaomi?

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] gsmyth:
Wow that looks like a good deal! I've still to get a case and possibly a tempered glass screen protector, will be interested to hear how yours is. You dont have to send your IMEI for the bootloader unlock, just register for a user account at the MIUI forum below, check out a few threads and make a few posts. Then request unlock permissions via the other link below, you need to enter your mobile number and will receive a text messsage with a verification code that needs to be entered before it expires (5mins). Then just wait and you should recieve another text message confirming that permission has been granted and you can go and download the unlock tool, then just wait until your device arrives.

Thankyou mate, I was getting through reading the en.miui bootloader unlock forums but you have put it in a nice easy format for me to understand so Thanks.

As for the phone deal I've taken a punt on them, so let's hope that all works out...
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] gsmyth:
No worries, hope it helps, Im not an expert by any means and new to Xiaomi devices so have just been scouring XDA, MIUI forum, Reddit, etc to try and figure out what Im doing. I've heard of TO2c.com and seen positive feedback so you should be fine, I also just took a bit of a punt on geekbuying as I've seen good and bad feedback, but just went for it as I'm usually reasonably lucky! Plus I wanted to use paypal and order from a european warehouse to hopefully speed up delivery.

Damn, I payed ten bucks more than that for my 2GB model :( lol. Nice find, well done.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] gsmyth:
My RN4 has been delivered today, not at home to check it out but will be later! So its taken exactly a week to be delivered since I ordered on Thurs 24th Nov, which isnt too bad and is pretty much spot on as per the guidance for geekbuying's delivery times on their site. The tracking info provided by Geekbuying/their courier is pretty useless and geekbuying pretty much fob you off when you email them a query. The last update on the tracking info was that it had left Spain on 28th Nov and that was it nothing further. So i was patient and waited and emailed geekbuying support yesterday to see if they could provide any more details, they responded this morning and apologised for the inconvenience, that it was peak season and the courier was very busy so there was a delay with an update on information, etc. But its turned up about an hour ago and I'll be inspecting it further once I get home.

Really enjoy reading tour review :) i order a redmi note 4 some days ago and its still in processing :(

But one question...black? I mean, you mean the grey one?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Wilderone:
I'm sure he's referring to the black fascia model with the grey back/sides.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] gsmyth:
Thanks for reading and yes the grey model although the front is definitely black! I chose it as it definitely is the best hiding the bezel round the screen and makes it easier to see the notification led.

I just need to sort the cell radio drain and this phone is perfect. It's basically set to WCDMA by default and xiaomi have set this option so it can't be altered. I have altered it in a previous phone so it was changeable at some point and luckily there is a mod that should fix it, so will probably install twrp later to flash it.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Guihardrock:
Oh after you try could you post your opinion? And the link? Thank you :) and its hardware related? I mean if in the future we have cm or something we could change it as well?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] gsmyth:
I'll report back if I get a chance to look at it sure. See the link below, I'm hoping this will help, as the battery drains away for no reason, but I remember pretty much the exact issue on a previous handset and changing the preferred network mode sorted it.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Wilderone:
Wow great report! Thanks.

So you are confirming for me the very things I researched & debated before buying this particular phone.

I have no doubt I will be impressed but by how much time will tell.

I'm glad someone is bucking against Samsung's whole edge thing & looking outside the box ie; China. tbh I liked gimmicky idea when they released the S6 edge but it's time to move on & they haven't. Don't get me wrong I think it's a great phone in many ways but time will tell if that works out for them.

I'm coming from an OppO R7 which I payed nearly $420USD for 18 months ago & it has been a pretty stellar phone for the most part but it's the extra screen real estate & performance upgrade I desire in this new phone.

I'm pretty happy I've only spent only half of that for probably more tech & quality in this new device.

I agree with you completely on the Grey/Black fascia model as they were my thoughts exactly concerning the bezel & notification lights, the grey back also may hold less fingerprints & possibly wear better than silver or gold IMO.

I'm almost expecting my device to arrive with an unofficial vendor ROM on it but im okay with that because I'm now armed with the helpful knowledge from this forum & others to flash something legit & polished.

I would be very interested in your take on Global Stable vs Xiaomi.eu or CosmicDans "CosmicTweaks" when or if you decide to change.

Cheers & thanks again & keep it coming.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Wilderone:
I forgot to mention how well the "Mi Mover" app works.

I installed it on the old phone & scanned the QR code with the RN4 so it tethered them together & transferred all my data & apps in one hit. Great app Xiaomi!!

I also used the MIUI backup when switching between ROM's which worked flawlessly also.

Impressive :)

[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] uta8111:
In searching around for the best (and safest -- recoverable) method for flashing Xposed on an already rooted J700T, I'm seeing a lot of conflicting info. Use FlashFire. Don't. Burn the 32-bit Xposed. No, use the 64! (huh, doesn't the J700T run a 32 bit 6.0.1?) Use this Xposed image. No! Use this one. Have this image available in case something goes wrong and you need to get out of boot loop through recovery. No, that won't work, use this one. And so on.

Could somebody please summarize where we stand on installing Xposed in a stock ROM, rooted J700T, as of today, in terms of best practices? Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] OriginalShinken1:
I asked around before to the ones who were using Xposed and got no response either. That was weeks ago. I was going to post what they were using so others will have that information.

Yes the ROM is 32 (dual 32 is what the claim is) but the kernel is built using arm64. Go figure.

I also looked into a magisk Xposed setup so Android pay and Pokemon go would work.

If you haven't got an answer or figured it out yet, I will wipe this phone and start from scratch and post a guide on what and how to install by Saturday.

Magisk systemless xposed is probably the best way at the moment to have root and xposed.

Little chance of bricking and totally reversible plus with added benefits.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] OriginalShinken1:
That it is but I have had previous issues with magisk on other devices where my normal root apps not see me as root. I don't use xposed but if the people want it, I will help in getting the info they need.

As far as having android pay and other useful features of systemless (which supersu is now) root is more important for which I extend my middle finger to Niantic.

This your Xposed to flash through twrp.

Save to external SD card then flash from recovery. May take a few minutes to boot.

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591000424962808

This is your Xposed installer apk. Save to external SD card.

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3383776&d=1435601440

Flash Xposed zip in recovery (twrp) first.

Then after you have booted up, install Xposed installer apk (must go to settings and allow unknown sources).

All modules and framework downloads are at your own risk. There are a lot of tweaks that only work with certain devices and certain Roms. Do your homework and research anything that interests you in Xposed.

I personally don't use Xposed so what modules and tweaks are best is not in my knowledge base right now.

All information came from this site

https://devs-lab.com/download-install-xposed-for-samsung-devices.html

There is an uninstaller on that page in case you feel that Xposed is not for you.

I personally have magisk and systemless xposed installed perfectly on my system. Easiest way to do this is to go to the official xda magisk thread and install the manager and then install magisk. then install xposed via the magisk manager. make sure you download the right xposed manager app which you can find in the official thread as well. so far so good and i am running this on a debloated stock samsung rom.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] natri23:
Basically, because of Samsung new ART runtime, official xposed flash dont work. You have to use an unofficial mod to xposed it.

One of them is the custom-build-by-wanam that [MENTION=4149822]OriginalShinken1[/MENTION] linked above.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZ Eddie:
So I don't spend much time in the Nexus 7 forum since I rarely use this device. Thus, I apologize in advance if this is brought up a lot.

I'll admit I haven't done much searching on the issue because the hits I found never seemed to apply to my situation.

No matter what ROM I flash, I always end up with massive, massive lag.

Seriously horrible lag.

Like, it can take 30 seconds just to open an app.

CPU Spy indicates I'm hitting all core frequencies so I'm not sure there is a hardware problem, but I haven't ruled it out either.

My flash procedure with TWRP is to wipe EVERYTHING. Data, system, cache, dalvik, etc.

One time I even wiped internal and then transferred the ROM over using ADB.

Then I'll flash the ROM and set everything up.

Tried different ROM's, different versions of Android and different GAPPs.

Any suggestions from the collective?
