I agree. I m on stable from xiaomi.eu with magisk and twrp working perfect. The problem is android 10 in dev rom. No recovery with android Q suport for rn8 pro. I remember lots of brick in rn5 pro (SD) with rollback. And all was solved in a few weeks. Very disappointed with xiaomi.eu.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] fastjohnson:
Yah the problem is there updating the hell out if this device and it's getting more & more updates. It's hard to build a development on something that's constantly changing. Right now I'm looking into cooking up a custom kernel for the RN8 pro. It needs that right now for the audio mods like viper and LKT and kernel audiator because you can't manipulate the parameters of the audio. Right now I'm happy with the stock rom it works good and it's stable. I've never built a kernel so I foresee a brick coming my way. Lol
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] donkyshot:
So if it's true it was only because of Android 10, they should have just freezed development for that. Not stable 9, they removed those downloads too.

Does anyone know safe procedure to update rooted 9.4.5 EU global (not xiaomi.eu) to 11.0.1.0 ? Is it worth it anyway?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mek32:
To 11.0.1.0 eu or stock?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] donkyshot:

Try with mi flash pro or if you have twrp flash the zip file.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] fastjohnson:
I'm very interested in trying. I have done a lot of research and downloaded Android ndk and Android studio. Prob is I run windows 10 pro and it seems developing is a lot easier with ubuntu fedora. I have a laptop modified with ubuntu already established. Haha my gf gets mad as hell when I brick phones and I just laugh and say I'll get it. Unfortunately my back up my mi mix 3 I'm waiting for my screen replacement to come in. Might be using the old modded to death lg g3.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ScarletVeil:
Ah, bad news indeed. I hope it'll quickly resolved. G90T is such promising SoC

One question, is source code still broken? No new news from xiaomi? Maybe xiaomi just taking their time to give us Android 10 codes instead short lived PIE codes. Unfortunatelly, I can't help because zero experiences in programming
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mek32:
I had to disassemble my rn8 pro for unbrick it by flashing all the images two days ago. My gf cant belive when see the phone open which was buyed 20 days ago.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] fastjohnson:
Haha. Yah mines seen some stuff. Ruining brand new devices. Brand new lg v20 blew the q fuse she was pissed. There is a guy on here at xda that is lisenced to EDL mode he can unbrick via TeamViewer for like 2.50$ and he's willing to help. Are you rooted with TWRP installed.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] donkyshot:
I've got twrp and magisk root running.

Normally I'd just flash full zip and flash magisk, wipe cache and reboot.

I'm just wondering if someone upgraded to 11 rooted and what procedure.

How's 11 anyway compared to 10?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mek32:
Yes. Rooted, twrp and xiaomi.eu stable. I bricked the phone flashing th dev rom android 10 xiomi.eu.

I was in miui 11 stock (oficial upgrade) , flashed twrp, installed miui 11 stable xiaomi.eu and root. I bricked the phone flashing dev rom android 10. I think android 9 roms are safe to flash anything. The problem is in android 10 roms. Be careful.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kristof1992:
I use xiaomi.eu on my begonia.

Fast and very very low battery drain - better than official global rom from xiaomi.

its sad about end of develop this soft. Only android 10 have problem with flash and do brick.

[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Yemble:
Yep, ditto...

However, surely we need a solid working TWRP / root for Android Q first?

Not sure that I fully understand the TWRP development path... does this go all the way back to Xiaomi, or even MediaTek? Are the XDA/TWRP developers waiting for a code release, or is it a reverse engineering exercise?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Generaljan:
Perfect thanks.

What is your experience with xiaomi.eu ROM on RN8pro?

Hey and do you have changelog?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jim.Duke:
Wtf? Miui 11 stable from Xiaomi.eu is working very nice, I flash it with lrtwrp and rooted, no issue at all. wtf is the problem? If people brick the phone flashing a developer BETA rom isn't our problem they're advised by the word "BETA", damn.

I had to return the phone when I could still do it, damn me
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mek32:
Better than stock. Smooth, no blotware, dialer with call recorder, more features in settings but i think xiaomi.eu drains more battery than stock.. Changelog is in xiaomi.eu web. Is the same for all phones. Don t have dev rom changelog .

Yeah that's what I read and why I would like to try them for myself.

But since official link went down before I even got the chance to have my hands on my phone, I never had the chance to get them from source.

So still looking for a mirror-source confirmed working and not corrupted.

At this point I am still looking.

Am I the only one having issues downloading big files (1GB+) from mega?

And if you did not how did you direct-DL them if you dont mind me asking? Using FF-ESR uptodate on both W7x64 or Debian buster does not cut it for me.

Also, could those actually having those ROM runnings on their phone downloaded from original source, post some checksums so we can check integrity of archives before flashing and messing up our phones?

UPDATE1

Finally managed to download the files from mega thanks to Jdownloader (mentioned by someone somewhere thanks to him). Sadly I want to report to [MENTION=5666487]mek32[/MENTION] at least one file is corrupted:

Corrupted: Checksum fails.

Archive test failed:

! xiaomi.eu_multi_HMNote8Pro_V11.0.2.0.PGGCNXM_3eb8adacf2_v11-9.zip: Checksum error in system.new.dat.br. The file is corrupt
! xiaomi.eu_multi_HMNote8Pro_V11.0.2.0.PGGCNXM_3eb8adacf2_v11-9.zip: Checksum error in vendor.new.dat.br. The file is corrupt

Download seems fine.

Archive tested OK.

Not tested yet

We might need a new mirror for those who came last and did not have a chance to grab it from source.

Thanks for them!

[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Muad.Dib:
Not your fault m8, don't blame yourself! Things like this is happening all the time :p

Thanks for uploading them in the first place. File might have gotten corrupted on your storage device/computer nothing you could have done about it if that's the case.

The only thing that can be done to prevent this from happening (or at least try) is to burn those kind of images on good quality optical media and double check after burning is done checksum is still a match from the media itself.

At least that's what I did for stuff I want to keep.

Hi everyone, sorry for asking but could someone help me find the correct combination file for my s7 edge I tried flashing one that said it was for my stock firmware G935VVRU4API3_G935VVZW4API3_VZW but it turned out to be not what it said it was and Ive looked and looked but cant find another one that matches.

Thanks for the help.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] xxMoon:
Finally, a method to root the Galaxy J7 Prime!!!!

Do note, this root isnt perfect. Root has to be manually started every reboot via ADB or the included bat script.

By installing this, you will not loose any data. I still would be wise to backup your devices regadless.

This root package only supports firmware U4. Odin will not flash these files if your build is above U4.

If you are on a build lower that U4, do not flash this, you will softbrick your device.

I can provide the U4 update if people need it. TBA

J727t1 U4 Odin Firmware

The Steps

1. Download and Extract the zip package to your desktop. --------> J727t1 Root.zip

2. Go into J727t1 Root\Odin Firmware and run odin.

3. Click BL and select "Put in BL Slot ENGSboot.tar" (Its in the Odin_Firmware folder)

4. Click AP and select "Put in AP slot ENGRoot.tar" (Its in the Odin_Firmware folder)

5. Power off you device, and then by pressing and holding "Power Vol_Down and Home" boot into download mode. (Dont forget to press Volume Up when prompted)

6. Connect your phone and then click start. Let your phone reboot.

7. Once booted, go into Go into J727t1 Root and run Install_Root.bat . Let your phone reboot again.

8. Now finally, in the J727t1 Root folder run 00activate_root.bat

You are now rooted and SuperSu should work until you reboot your phone.

Additional notes:

NO OEM UNLOCK NEEDED

The Install_Root.bat puts the bat file to activate root on your device.

That way, if your out and about while your phone reboots, you just need

a computer to reactivate root. lol lol
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Droidriven:
Maybe, if you tried incorporating flashing Magisk or using Magisk to patch a boot.img and flashing that into this process, somehow, you might be able to keep persistent root.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] xxMoon:
You cant, the bootloader is locked. Any changes to boot, recovery or sboot trigger no boot.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Droidriven:
Ah, I thought this method might have involved using an engineering(factory test) firmware that had a bootloader that would allow modification even with a locked bootloader or even allow the bootloader to be unlocked. I've seen similar steps and method used with that type of firmware. My mistake.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] xxMoon:
As for making it persistent, the only sh files the boot.img .rc's load are install-recovery.sh and init.sec.boot.sh . Patching them to load the su daemon does nothing. Gotta be a permission thing preventing them from running. Maybe its just a exynos oreo thing... Any ideas people?
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Droidriven:
Your device doesn't have the OEM unlock setting? Factory test/Engineering firmware typically do.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] xxMoon:
They dont, ive tested every build, they dont have it baked in. I looked throug, the decompiled secsettings.apk oem unlock is there, but something is disabling it.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Droidriven:
You mean the setting is there but it is greyed out? Have you tried the trick involving changing the date in system settings to a month or so ago? It bypasses the block that some carriers use that involves a set amount of time having to pass before the setting can be altered, once the time limit expires, the setting is available. Changing the date can trick this into thinking that the proper amount of time has passed.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] xxMoon:
No, oem unlock doesnt show period, no matter what is done. As for init.d support, after looking through the kmsg, I discover defex was blocking it. I did find one gem though, after looking through the init.rc file, it looks for an rc file that doesnt exist. I can make an rc file with the name its looking for and put it in the directory where it should be, init will run it. But still anything that involves running sec-sh or su gets blocked by defex during init.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Droidriven:
There is a .zip that can be flashed to bypass defex. If you have root, you can try flashing that .zip via Flashify or similar app.

There is a zip for disabling dm-verity also.

There is also a RMM fix that can be flashed via Odin.

Where did you get the files that you used to gain root? Where they specific to your device? Did you create them yourself? If you made them yourself, what did you use to make them, did you modify them yourself, if so, what about them did you modify?

I'm asking all this because I'm trying to root a SM-J737A and a SM-S767VL. I've tried all kinds of tricks trying to flash TWRP or Magisk. I don't think I can make it work so I wanted to try your method if nothing else. I just want to know if I need to modify your method to be compatible with my devices. If so, what do I need to modify or at least, where can I find information to make those modifications, if needed?

I see that your files are ENG files, did you get these from the engineering firmware for your device? I have the engineering firmware for both of the devices I listed, they are both U4, the full cstock firmware for both are S4. The J737A has the OEM unlock setting and it is enabled but in download mode it still says KG State: prenormal. The S767VL does not have the OEM unlock setting but in download mode it says KG State: checking. It's confusing and contradictory.

What do I need to adapt files from these firmware to use on these devices?
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] xxMoon:
Yeah any zip that modifies the ramdisk wont work. My suggestion for you is to scour the web for an eng root boot img. They give you a rooted adb which means you can do root stuff in the shell. They are signed by Samsung so they can flash via odin no problem.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] xxMoon:
https://gsm-firmware.com/index.php?a=downloads&b=folder&id=14315

If you contact this place, they offer eng root boot.imgs, i think they charge for em though.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] xxMoon:
Most of the newer factory combination roms are pretty secure. I think engroot files are made specifically for official firmwares, just have to match the builds. The sboot from my package is from a combination rom, had to use it to allow for system modifications. If you use just the engroot, all the files you push to /system dissappear after a reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Droidriven:
As in eng root boot.img specific to my model number and U4 binary? Or any eng boot.img from any 7870 J7 variant with U4?
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] xxMoon:
They are specific to your model number. They are also specific to your build, preferably you want it to match yours. If its a lower build they wont flash.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] yurais:
not specific to build, but specific to Binary, you cant write U4 stuff on U3 firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Droidriven:
I could be mistaken, but, the U3 engineering firmware can be flashed over U4 full stock firmware, but the U3 full stock firmware can not be flashed over U4 full stock firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] yurais:
As far as I know , you can't downgrade any thing from U4 to U3, not stock and not ENG.

[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Droidriven:
What I meant by "specific to your build" is that you can't flash older than the build you have, it has to be equal to what is already on the device or newer. As in, you can update from U3 to U4 or for example, U4 to U7 but not U6 to U5 or anything older than U6. Equal to present or forward, no backward.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] SaxManDan:
J727T?

Hi, so I've seen your post on various different posts requesting root for the J727T. Will it work on that device as well? Also, how do I know if I am on U4 or lower? Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] yurais:
I would say, specific to your bit/binary/bootloader, because usually there are different builds sharing the same bit.

You can find different firmware versions inside the same bit 4, for example.

So, you can go forward and backward as long as you are running inside the same binary milestone.

If you put phone in download mode, it can be read in the texts it show.

Where it says swrev , then B:

Should be B:4 for bit 4.

If phone is working well, you can read this in the software version, for example in software

You take the last five digits

The first digit is binary/bit (5)

The last 3 digits describe software build
