Hey! Do you have Chinese phone + global rom or global phone + global rom?

I will try the same process tonight and then I come back for a report.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] donkyshot:
Thanks, this looks promising. I'm waiting for unlocking. Please keep us posted if it keeps working for you.

global phone + global rom, in europe i needed this the chinese phone doesn't have the right networks to work here (at least according to the selling websites)

I received in 1 week ago, just after this version was officially launched.

---------- Post added at 02:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:23 PM ----------

cool, remember that your phone gets reset that also meant the internal storage, (this week i just moved it all to internal to use the second simcard soon) so i lost some stuff :P mostly was cloud stored but still. And keep using the phone, i read that people used there old phone to see again a new waiting time after the first one was finished.

i will, i just restored some backups from titaniumbackup (apps like google authenticator that is impossible to restore other ways) and apps like adaway etc.

thinking of installing also exposed again, but then some apps will block things, or edxposed but that is still beta (and on my previous phone everytime i started it restarted the android only to get it to work) but at least hide root works on it.

So keeping it just rooted for now.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] astrakid:
That worked for me as well. But the rest didn't. Still get bootloop and have to flash boot.img again.

Tried with lazyflasher as well before flashing magisk, no difference...
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] TrNaSe:
you got into twrp

then you installed the recovery again with twrp

then reboot back into recovery (not to system)

install magisk

then reboot to system

(so no other apps installed)

and when you get twrp and asks for a swype code, do you choose it? cause i used the one i had for my phone and it decrypted something
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] astrakid:
no, after installation i didn't rebooted into recovery again i think.

i entered the pin code of my rn8p to decrypt data.

edit: tested your procedure exactly without success.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] polfrank:
Chinese phone, Global firmware.

Followed your instructions but I get into bootloop after flashing Magisk. TWRP does not persist after reboot either.

The command "fastboot boot recovery.img" does not boot anything and the phone just disconnects from fastboot and reboots after a while.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] TrNaSe:
When you flash recovery and then do: flash reboot recovery recovery. img, THEN you need to press volume up (recovery mode) when it's booting up, then it should go into in.

Then when you're in twrp recovery flash recovery. IMG again from inside that to make it stick. If you then choose reboot to recovery from twrp and it goes into recovery again then it's good, if not then this doesn't work for you.

Volume down while booting is to get into fastboot
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] polfrank:
What I did:

1) reboot to fastboot (adb reboot bootloader)

2) fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (flash ok)

3) power off phone (hold pwr button 10 secs from fastboot menu)

4) power up to recovery with pwr+volup

5) twrp boots

6) install twrp from within twrp (flash image)

7) reboot to recovery, boots to twrp successfully

8) reboot to system

9) adb reboot recovery

...

10) stock recovery boots instead of twrp

And some extra notes:

- "fastboot boot recovery.img" doesn't work (not a problem, since I have a workaround to boot to recovery from fastboot. I am just mentioning it.)

- "fastboot reboot recovery recovery.img" doesn't work

Am I missing something?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Tin_Man_0:
Did you first have to request unlock from Mi and wait XXX hours first before attempting this? Do you have Chinese version? EU Version? Global version? and I noticed Mi release an update (at least for the EU version), did you do this before updating?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] wesley7790:
My RedmiNote 8 pro auto restart until no power

Here are my Flash steps:

i had alredy unlock from Mi.

1. flash recovery-TWRP-3.3.1-0530-REDMI_NOTE7PRO-CN-wzsx150.img

2. twrp operation

2.1TWRP: Format the data partition

2.2 Cancel mandatory encryption, DM check

2.3 Advanced > Select "Cancel Enforce Encryption" > Confirm Confirm

Installation > Select "sdcard" directory > Select "Magisk-v19.3.zip"

Restarted after switching again, so

3. Fastboot: flash Recovery-RedmiNote8Pro-3.3.1-9.0.img

….then….

Now the phone has been restarted (recoveryMode: volume + power button, FastBoot Mode: volume + power button, can not enter) auto restart until there is no power. Plug in the charge and start the reboot again.

How can I get into recovery or fastboot mode now?

Did you try rooting with SR5-SuperSUv2.82 SR5?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] wesley7790:
My RedmiNote 8 pro auto restart until no power

no, i just flash twrp: recovery-TWRP-3.3.1-0530-REDMI_NOTE7PRO-CN-wzsx150.img and Recovery-RedmiNote8Pro-3.3.1-9.0.img

Maybe, i used note 7 pro's=> misc.bin and Format the data partition, so it still can't get in recovery and flashboot mode.

[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Kediraksith:
Damn bang... almost there... At least now I'm able to keep TWRP instead of it vanishing after 2 reboots.

Unfortunately, I still cant get root as it will bootloop when i flash magisk... be it 19.2, 19.4, 20.... but great video nonetheless...

Im using a CN phone but flashed with EU ROM 10.4.5...
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] astrakid:
Why do you flash magisk 19.2 when 19.4 is working?

Did anyone else root his phone successfully with that how-to? It looks good, but I am a bit afraid of removing system files, because rn8p is my daily driver and I need it... But on the other hand I need root as well.

[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Kediraksith:

I tried to root as kushyree showed in his tutorial, now i am stuck at "redmi note 8 pro" boot logo. twrp is still accessible (stock recovery has not been replaced), but system is not starting up.

any ideas, how to solve it? can i debug, what is causing the loop?

regards,

andre

edit: i already restored my backuped system and system_image (took the backup before rooting) within twrp without success. now i restored system.img and boot.img with fastboot - still booting fails.

Edit2: wiping userdata as well solved the issue, although I have no clue what userdata has to do with bootloop...

What is your guys opinion on the whole custom rom and Mediathek Chipset thing? Its the only point holding me back right now of buying it.

Do you think there will be alot of roms in the future? Ive read the news from xda sending 10 phones to developers which makes me hope the comunity will grow fast really big :)

Yeh NOTE 8 PRO is gone get a big comunity as i read in one of the threads by XDA

Like some of the phones (asus, honor----specific models) Xiaomi has officially released source code to build a community in xda and already sent 10 note 8 pro devices to develop for it and many of the device has already got delivered to some developers and as of now the development is on process and it will be a great community on xda

And dont worry about MTK (MEDIATEK) its a awesome chipset especially helio series its performance are good even compare to some Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset.(Colling stuff is also build in note 8) so engoy

I think u got it

I was confused myself what to buy because i like to experiment on my phone because now a days every now and then new phone are coming and not every phone gets customs rom , development

But when i got this news in XDA i knows note 8 pro ia the right phone and right configuration and GREAT DEVELOPMENT FROM XDA wil make this phone a beast

Here is my experience. I installed trwp after bootloader unlock. I rebooted to twrp and installed magisk 20 latest version. I made the mistake and let twrp install twrp app automatically on my global redmi 8 pro. It started bootlooping. I tried to install boot.img and booted up but lost twrp and recovery. I found a global rom which installed miui 10 through command line. Could it be magisk causing the problem with bootlooping?

---------- Post added at 02:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:16 AM ----------

Update:

I reinstalled twrp, rebooted recovery to twrp after doing a factory reset and booted perfectly. I configured my phone with account information and stock recovery popped up. Am I missing something? I know on lg v30 I had to install two zip files to unlock stock recovery security to keep twrp under the pie update. Perhaps same thing needs to happen with xiaomi.

[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mcarden2006:
Never mind. When I installed the recovery and prior to rebooting it asked if I wanted to install twrp apk. I thought that was the problem for the bootlooping but it wasn't. I reinstalled miui 10.4.1 and reinstalled twrp. I rebooted to recovery 3 times and twrp stuck. I booted to system and rebooted to recovery and stock recovery took over. I am running global on my redmi note 8 pro and followed directions to a tee with no success. I am thinking with miui running Android 9 pie the same blob is in play needing anykernal flash and another zip to keep twrp from being replaced on reboot.

Last time i tried the way that someone publicated at youtube by kushyree:

1. install twrp by fastboot

2. boot into fastboot

3. remove one file in system_user

4. remove security within twrp (see youtube)

then i got bootloop. i was not able to recover by installing boot.img again (which worked before, when i tried other tutorials). i installed the same rom again without userdata and it didn't work. wiping userdata solved it at least.

even the backup within twrp of userdata didn't work, so i am careful of testing, because my userdata is fundamental for me.

andre

Hi,

sorry for my english

Redmi Note 8 pro Global ROM

I proceeded approximately following the instructions:

1- flashed LR team recovery using fastboot command

In TWRP mount system

- Go to Advanced> file manager

- then go to system_root> system and delete "recovery-from-boot.p"

- Go home and again go to advanced and select "Close AVB2.0" swipe to confirm.

2- formatted data then wiped cashes and system

3- flashed LR team recovery img from recovery and rebooted to recovery

So from the TWRP Recovery, which was just started again flashed the twrp.img into recovery

4- flashed xiaomi.eu rome and rebooted and setup device

NO, I built a Mi-Globe rom (without root) and flashed it with twrp

... drives up and does everything .... but I can not get into the recovery,

Vol up + Power is in a loop ....

Boot into the system .....

flashing with fastboot and twrp does it, but it does not start in the twrp

Then the Redmi Note 8 pro with original and miflash all reset.

Since I have fastboot and mi-recovry and the original system Miui 10.4

Then everything again from the beginning ....

I now have the ROM mi-globe 9.11.21 on it,

fastboot ok

but no boot into recovery,

no twrp and no mi recovery ....

what am I doing wrong or what can i do?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mub19:

i can not in recovery....

PS you don't need to wipe data. Or format it'll work exactly the same without wiping the phone.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] polfrank:
I think it is because the recoveries you are trying to boot are not supported by Android 10.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mub19:

I am glad to have made no mistake

Many thanks to the twrp team for their work, great

I will then wait for twrp, which is Android 10

supports

[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] fastjohnson:
I just removed twrp recovery and unrooted, for what is out there for development right now i think i'd rather get android 10 update then work around that. I do know if you have custom recovery and root and you try and update to 10 you will brick your device ( hard brick EDL style ) go stock recovery then update then flash LR recovery then root. But for now we'll be stock and wait for the update.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] fastjohnson:
Yah seemed like the best way to go for me right now. Lol of course till I use YouTube and don't see vanced I'll be like WHY but development is under way and I think it'll be a daisy cutter of development will drop and it'll be large. Pretty easy to go back to stock. Just fastboot flash boot IMG and done.

Wow, same problem with my kenzo after flashing alpha miui, I did fixed it with QXDM/QPST, flashing full fastboot didnt work, iirc modem firmware problem and must reenter data manually via QXDM QPST to make it permanent. Dunno What is equivalent of them for MTK
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Tin_Man_0:
That's intresting because I just got finished re-installing twrp on my Redmi Note 8 Pro with the new MIUI 11 firmware. I just did a clean slate fastboot flash to 10 using the fastboot method (this after failing to install MIUI 11 while keeping my twrp and root, that was a little nightmare that took me all day to get past), but once I flashed back to factory still unlocked I went ahead and did an ota update to MIUI 11 and then went back to how I had originally flashed twrp, took me a bit because I did it using bits a pieces from the various instructions on this thread. But once I had twrp "permanantly" installed again, I flashed the MIUI 11 rom using twrp and was able to boot no problem. One thing I will note is that I have NOT tried to root it just yet. Haven't installed Magisk, I'm going to look into the issues with what everyone else is experienceing before I try that cuz that EDL brick is no joke. The instuctions on the Mi forums have you open up the phone to fix it. Hell No I'm not cracking open my brand new phone.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mub19:

Use the SuperSU file not just magisk. Inside that SuperSU is a archive of magisk 19.4 that works without a hitch. Then update magisk within magisk and you'll be golden.

I'm on 10.4.5 PGGEUXM with twrp and root (magisk) without any problems.

How to update to 11.0.2.0?

Normally I'd just flash full ROM (not incremental ota) and flash magisk. Will this work?

Or should I unroot first, clean flash 10.4.5 and update ota and then root again? I can't risk bricking phone, this is my daily driver.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] lightman33:
Not sure it's a good idea if you really need a rooted phone because 10.X ROM seems to be more easily rooted.

But if you want to go to 11.X rom, you need :

- to download a full rom on xiaomi website

- to use the flash_all_except_userdata script (.sh or .bat, depend on your operating system)

- to flash twrp again (use twrp-3.3.1-0924.img version)

- to boot to recovery to flash Close AVB2.0 and flash root (magisk 19.4)

My phone is working well with a V11.0.2.0.PGGMIXM ROM but I lost root last week. I don't know why, I have easily flash twrp and magisk again to retrieve root.

Hope it will help you.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] donkyshot:
So in that case I better wait till official Android 10 and hopefully more development on recovery and ROM. I wasn't expecting a lot of development because of mediatek.

But basic recovery, root,kernel and miui development would be nice.
