Have you tried flashing them directly in TWRP manually?
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] drganbds:
Guys is that a way to root redmi 3s without unlocking bootloader?

Edit: Practically it's not possible....Unlock bootloader first then install twrp now root in just 7 days.

Note: Don't use any tricks available in forums and it won't work, just wait minimum 6days after U get permission because ur profile will get update to mi server slowly and it takes time then after 6th day use miunlock otherwise U will get 50% error.

Requirements: switch on OEM unlock and debug option that's all and login in to the same mi account which U got permission.

[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] SILF0X:
I guess so.. It can be done with MiFlash Tool (EDL)
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] drganbds:
tried but failed so i think we need unlocked bootloader...
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] SILF0X:
First thing first..

1. Download and install latest MiFlashTool

2. Reboot into EDL mode

3. Flash this like you flash fastboot rom using MiFlashTool

TWRP FLASHER

If you're done, please let me know..

Note: only for redmi 3s/Prime/3x
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] drganbds:
But it needs unlocked bootloader right? Did u tried it
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] SILF0X:
I made this tool, of course i tried it.

Just flash this package, you'll get TWRP installed. Even if you're on locked bootloader. After that, you can flash SuperSU.

Just try it..
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] drganbds:
Flash through updater app? Why can't u make this as public and as for as I search a lot in Google forums they told without unlock u can't root our device and im using 3s+ variant.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] SILF0X:
Flash it using the latest MiFlashTool.

I found it yesterday, doesn't have much time to publish it.

Redmi 3s+ ? Maybe its Redmi 3x?
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] drganbds:
In MI flash tool latest tried but it does nothing and didn't flash anything. Do I need to put in fastboot mode manually?
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] SILF0X:
You have to enter EDL mode.

adb reboot edl
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] drganbds:
Edl means downloader mode right? then in mi flash i have to select the entire .zip file or the recovery.img alone?
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] SILF0X:
How To Boot Into EDL Mode :

1. Turn off your phone completely.

2. Press Volume Up (+) and Power buttons simultaneously. This will bring your phone into Recovery Mode.

Device can't go to EDL mode and it says device locked
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] Tyson12:
Regarding to ur root with out unlocking bootloader

Dont get me Wrong guys

I already tried this method a long time ago..where my device is locked

Here's What i did.... before i have locked bootloader..i downloaded fastboot images put the device in edl mode and change the recovery file img to twrp img and rename it to recovery.img..And flash the All os files.. flashed successfully but still it shows stock recovery

that's why i'm wondering about that .

.And i changed the boot file to twrp image and rename it to boot .. it flashed the files succesfull But it stuck on mi logogo and lead me to qualocom diagonostic mode 900E Because of partioning mismatch [i guess ]

luckily i'm having fastboot because the flasher first flashes the bootloader and mbn files

i initiate

fastboot oem edl

command then i'm in edl mode and flashed the device to previous state ..After that i stopped the work it's a new phone guys [1 week ] i got feared

So my query is how it still can't boot into twrp recovery mode if it's flashed successfull in edl mode

[ i checked the log file ]

I guess because of encryption process of system partition after flashing ..so again what i did is after flashing the fles immediatly i boot on to recovery still the device automatically loops .. and start encryption

Now i Need Some one who's bootloader is locked to continue my work/test

Here's My Contact info 7396884287. Named Tyson... Give Me a Missed Call

R u saying that you flash twrp & succeed to have twrp while your bootloader was locked.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] SILF0X:
I meant that succeed to have twrp while the bootloader was unlocked.

You said that you flash twrp.img in edl mode, flashed successfully, but still it shows stock recovery.

i flash twrp.img in edl mode too. Flash successfully, and it shows TWRP.

[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] Rothner:
I tried unlocking my bootloader using the official method for the first time yesterday, and faced the same problem (stuck at 50%). It had been 2 says since I got the permission.

I guess I'll just wait for a few more days and try again. I read a recommendation somewhere that there's a better chance of unlocking if you're on Dev ROM, but I have no idea how to flash the Dev ROM if my bootloader is locked.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] drganbds:
Ya I tried on Dev ROM too but I faced same issue....Only thing is to wait for a week after permission....Ya u can download recovery version of Dev ROM from official website and select that zip file through updater app and viola u flashed Dev ROM.

Note: U should be on same ROM with that u got permission...

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flamingsword1:
I partitioned my SD card a while back, so that I could use Link2SDcard and as t turns out, I did not allocate enough space for app data. I'm wondering if I copy all my files to my PC, and restore them after partitioning again, will all the files link back up with Link2SDcard alright, or will the app not be able to find them anymore/ files not work anymore? Also, do I have to make sure I rename my partions the same as they were before?

I'm a bit nervous about this since I got a lot of app data I would rather not lose
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kohlrak:
When in doubt, take no chances. Since it's app data we're talking about, if the app data is protected, and if you have enough space on your computer, carefully use a tool to "make an image" of the SDcard, since it'll copy the entire card, including files that are not registered under normal circumstances. On linux, something like dd or even ddrescue will work for this purpose. I'm not 100% sure that'd work in all cases, but it's certainly a safe option if you have a pesky app. I would recommend this for more than just your phone/tablet, too, whenever sensitive data is involved.

Disclaimer: I'd love to get to the point you're at. I have yet to root my device.

If i shut it down and put it on charge the batery shows up with a lightening mark in it but no animation or percent

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bwacu18:
I know that but why it can't boot then? Ans what about recovery, Flaahing a stock rom gives you a stock recovery but the phone can't get into any recovery...

I flashed cwm recovery again with odin and I got into recovery , wiped data and cache but when I restarted the phone it got stuck again at bootloader and now I can't access the recovery again.... I think that volume up and power buttons are broken somehow...

Flashed again the stock rom , same problem , nothing changed...

I hard reset Dopod 818pro but nothing seems to work. I cannot comm with my HP because of its still in boot screen. The screen showing

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] tb146:
By standar TNT5 is intend to be flashed with old methode (downgrade to NVID ROM then flashed with it)

You have reached step 1 in new Flash metode

I think you have mistaken flashed your prophet, with new step you cannot flashed ur prophet using old methode, you have to use new methode. The file is different, the old one is OS.nb and the new step using nk.nbf

Just download new methode ROM (Shadow 1.0 or else with nk.nbf file) then flash ur prophet using it.

Read the step by step guide carefully. do not mix the old methode with new methode

If you have download a ROM, extract it to folder than try to find the file. if you find OS.nb then you have to flashed it using old methode.

but if you find nk.nbf file, you have to use the new methode.
