INSTRUCTIONS

First time installing CyanogenMod 14.1 to your Redmi Note 3 or coming from another ROM other than AOSP or CM based ROM:

Make sure you have unlocked your bootloader

Flash a custom recovery via Fastboot (any other installing methods will do, just make sure you have TWRP recovery installed)

Push GApps (arm64) and the CM 14.1 zip to your device

Boot into Recovery

Perform factory reset

Flash the CM 14.1 zip from SD card

Flash GApps for Nougat from SD card

Flash a custom kernel (I recommend Radon kernel if you have a Goodix device or camera sensors on your device are not working)

Reboot (be patient, "optimizing apps" takes a while)

Restoring Apps + Data might cause problems and is not recommended, avoid it if possible!

FAQ

ROOT! ROOT! Give me root or i'll die!!! Where root is???

First of all do not flash any supersu/superuser/superman zip package to get root. Go to Settings>Developement Settings>Root acces > Apps Only

Are these gapps <insert random gapps package here> working with CM14.1?

Use the suggested package

When do I have to wipe data?

You must wipe data only when you're switching from another rom or migrating to Snapshot branch from Nightly and vice versa. You don't need to wipe data when you update in the same release channel.

Why no <insert miui feature here>?

Because this is CyanogenMod
