You can't use titanium without root. Flash recovery also void warranty even if you don't root system.

[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Kavemium:
Hi all! First of all - sorry if this is the wrong place to ask these questions, please point me to the correct thread if it is not.

I've recently bought a global version of the Note 8 Pro, and updated to the latest system software, 11.0.2.0 (PGGMIXM). I have some minor issues with the device and require root access. Since my previous phone was an LG V20 and I made the mistake of rooting quickly, I didn't get the chance to sort out some problems I had.

My questions are as follows:

- How can I install TWRP & root my version? (In a brief search this thread, I found no info about 11.0.2.0)

- If I do the steps as instructed, will I lose *any* features? (things such as IR blaster - the remote control was a deciding factor for me, etc. Radio not too important. Neither is anything regarding any Mi account business.)

- Very importantly, following a successful root... How can I update my system software without losing root access? Android 10 is something I look forward to.

I'm not an expert on this topic but I can manage to decipher instructions (even with poor English :P) as long as they are clear. Thank you in advance. :)
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] idog8818:
Use ifelixit+FLASHER+TOOLKIT+Begonia.bat to install TWRP. It's working on 11.0.2. I've tried on China/Global Rom, both works.

Rooting depending on what tools you use, simply either supersu or Magisk. SuperSU is in TWRP and Magisk you need to find apk etc.

You can keep all feature except following 2.

1. No OTA.

2. No GooglePay if you don't use Magisk
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Kavemium:
Thank you for the reply. I plan on using Magisk since I have experience with it on my previous phone. The main issue remaining is updates. I did some research and, apparently, OTA updates aren't compatible with TWRP since it's a non-stock bootloader or something, makes sense.

Does this mean I can no longer update, or must I re-flash my stock loader, then update, then re-root it (or some other slightly confusing stuff)? A quick search revealed something called Flashfire, don't know if it works with the Note 8 Pro though. Edit: Never mind, seems like that doesn't work for these devices. Instead, would using Titanium backup work? Since it looks like updating requires a total wipe, I'd like to get my apps/settings/data back quickly.

Final (dumb) question - I searched up ifelixit(...), I don't need to download anything else other than the stuff from the c.mi website?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] idog8818:
You still can update. even OTA. Google Magisk and OTA, Magisk developer had instructions how to use for OTA. From my research on this website, FLASH original boot image and recovery, take OTA, reinstall Magisk module and TWRP again.

If just to install TWRP, ifelixit is enough, no need extra.

Hi guys,

I just bought this amazing phone in Indonesia. So it has the Indonesian ROM on it. I want to flash it to the Global ROM. But I have to wait a week before I can unlock the bootloader.

Right now I'm on MIUI 10. And I've read when you upgrade it to MIUI 11 and you want to flash a different ROM (also MIUI 11) you will brick the phone. Is this true?

Thanks for the help.

XRN8P recovery example

Well I have to say Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro is a disappointing device - in terms of TWRP recovery.

Refer to twitter for MAJOR issue: #note8probrick

Apparently, too easy to brick.

piunikaweb.com/2019/12/20/redmi-note-8-pro-bricking-issue/

gizchina.com/2019/12/17/redmi-note-8-pro-owners-and-developers-suffering-with-bricked-devices/

XRN8P = Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro

Stock recovery on XRN8P has main menu of Xiaomi’s Mi Recovery 3.0

The third option “Connect with MIAssistant” goes to a screen referring to “pcsuite.mi.com” and showing a requirement for a USB connection to PC. However, the PC software (last updated in 2015) it refers to is not valid for any version greater than Marshmallow. The error it gives is that you must update the software on the phone. Really? From Pie to Marshmallow. So why is it there with no explanation? Sloppy implementation by Xiaomi.

So what do we know? Facts are as follows:

I have phone model M1906G7G running MIUI Global 10.4.5 Stable 10.4.5.0(PGGEUXM)

I followed the standard well-documented procedure to unlock the bootloader – I waited 7 days for permission. No known way to shorten the wait.

Unlocking the bootloader wiped all personal data from the phone – as expected.

Whatever I flashed as recovery was immediately overwritten by stock recovery - Xiaomi’s Mi Recovery 3.0 when rebooting.

Flashing alternate recovery never reset any personal data on my phone - as expected.

However, I was able to use the Chinese version and when I quickly went into recovery mode I saw LR version of TWRP.

However, LR version of TWRP always got overwritten once I rebooted into system (Android system)

So, my situation was that I had effectively done NOTHING since unlocking bootloader, so I relocked my bootloader using command “fastboot oem lock”. It wiped all personal data from my phone.

I again unlocked my bootloader in the standard manner. Immediate action, no wait delay. All data wiped.

Testing of TWRP images:

1. twrp-3.3.1-0-begonia_UNOFFICIAL_1811.img

2. OrangeFox-Unofficial-begonia.img

3. LRtwrp.img TWRP-3.3.1-0924 for Redmi Note Pro –wzsx150 md5: 9a9e997f2729a57ee70c6a5fbed3ab52

“fastboot boot xxxxx.img” does not boot any TWRP image I found. For each I tried twice, with and without holding Volume+

“fastboot flash recovery xxxxx.img” followed by “fastboot reboot” and pressing Volume+ showed black screens for 1. and 2.

However, option 3. booted, I had to go from Chinese to English, and I was able to do a full backup (24 partitions, yes 24).

From within LRtwrp recovery I was able to reboot into LRtwrp recovery repeatedly.

So, now when I want TWRP I just flash the TWRP version of recovery and quickly go from fastboot into my temporary recovery setup. I know that when I boot into the Android system that Xiaomi’s Mi Recovery 3.0 will replace the TWRP.

Final status: Not rooted just unlocked bootloader.

Hope it helps someone. Merry Christmas!!

PS. So question is will this still work when system updated to the the now-available MIUI v11? Will it still work with the scheduled upgrade to Android 10?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Kavemium:
Hi all, I have another quick question about this. I've heard of a lot of bad experiences with bricking that requires an authorised service account to fix. My question is, when performing the root and recovery install, will I know immediately if it's bricked? Or, after some period of normal use, it will suddenly stop?

(And also... There's so many different instructions on how to root and install magisk, it's kinda scary)

That boot.img is for V10.4.5.0.PGGEUXM only. You have to download your own fastboot firmware (tgz file) and extract boot.img. To see your miui version goto Settings -> About Phone -> All Specs -> MIUI version.

Then download fastboot firmware from here: https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/archive/miui/begonia/ and extract boot.img

Better extract and flash both boot.img and recovery.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

I´ve installed TWRP and LineageOS on the phone.

After installing via TWRP the OS 16, the phone is in an bootloop. (Here I wanted to place the link to the YouTube Video, but I´m not allowed to...)

You should find the video on YouTube with search for: "Bootloop Lenovo P2", upload couple of minutes ago.

Any ideas to get out of that loop?

I have similar problem where upgrading to lineage 16 just as it came out makes the boot logo showing lenovo and a obscured logo on the top, the device reaches the boot animation (lineage os) which plays very slowly and causes the part around the processor to heat up to skin burning hot.

Booting into recovery, the recovery menu is obscured and I cannot see any thing other than some random patches. Note that the phone does not heatup in this menu.

- reboot recovery

- flash magisk

- and stuck in recovery loop.

i tried the magisk v19.3 that come with orange fox
