Thank you. The problem is that the latest build from Oppo is CPH2089_11_A.36 and now i have CPH2089_11_A.46 so when i try install it i receive an error message: "The installed Version is lower than current version"
[OPPO Reno4 / 4 Pro 5G Questions & Answers] bmwjavier45:
With all respect, the RENO 4 pro forum is empty, nobody can help me there. And I'm not asking about a Samsung, I'm asking about an Oppo Reno 4 Pro whose operation in this case is the same as that of the find x2 pro. I don't think it bothers anyone. Do you think it would be better not to help me by being strict with the rules?

[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] donkyshot:
Android skin – MIUI 12.5 – is finally here. The first incremental update over MIUI 12 has been unveiled at the Mi 11 launch event in China. Compared to MIUI 12, the stable version of which was released less than six months ago, MIUI 12.5 brings in a slew of improvements, visual overhauls, and a handful of new features. We have already extracted the new live wallpapers, and now we are presenting the downloading links of the first set of MIUI 12.5 beta firmware packages for a bunch of Xiaomi, Redmi, and POCO devices.

It is worth mentioning that these closed beta builds are meant for the Chinese variants, as Xiaomi suspended the rollout of MIUI global beta since last year. As a consequence, you have to flash these recovery ROMs using TWRP to bypass the MIUI beta account whitelisting. Do not expect Google Play Services or any pre-installed Google apps in them. Language options are likely limited to English and Chinese only, too. Xiaomi has yet to launch MIUI 12.5 globally. Meanwhile, you can try out the closed betas from China.

The beta MIUI 12.5 builds listed below are based on either Android 10 or Android 11, depending on the device. If you are looking for MIUI 12 stable releases, you can find those here.

Download: MIUI 12.5

You can download the latest beta of MIUI 12.5 for your device from the links below. You can also visit our linked forums in case you need further assistance. While all of these download links are directly from Xiaomi, users are advised to proceed at their own risk. We warn you once again, this is not intended for the average consumer and is recommended only for users comfortable with flashing ROMs.

Will payment apps work after installing magisk? like Gpay, PhonePe

Also will it take 7 days to unlock bootloader?

Hi, no idead for payment.

But MagiskHide normally does the trick.

Unlock bootloader is fast with all the tools in my pack.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jn1441:
Error1 displayed but after reflashing with mindgapps majisk is working now
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] djibe89:
Cool, enjoy. The phone is still good
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] tito_puente:
A very nice and clean tutorial, thanks for that!

I already unlocked bootloader with another tutorial and for now I will leave the device on the last stock firmware. But I already tested magisk. It's very new to me. The last phone I flashed is some years ago and I only knew SuperSU.

The Note 4 is only a "second device" and I won't use it as a daily driver. But it's fun to play around with it and test some things.

@djibe89 Good hint, that I have to use an older rom as an intermediate step to avoid problem, this is new to me.

Also I wondered when I looked up the partitions to backup. There are 15 (!?) partitions (Pics attached). You are writing, that following partitions have to be backed up: System, Vendor, Boot, Bootloader, Firmware and EFS partitions.

When I flash lineage and then want to go back, can I just restore the partitions? What happens to the other partitions when I flash a rom? Will they be deleted? Some years ago a phone just had 4 or 5 partitions...
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] djibe89:
Hi @tito_puente, you can start from step 7 to enjoy a clean Note 4.

Great guide, Im new to flashing roms and this seems understandable. Is this usable for Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x (snapdragon)?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] djibe89:
Hi,

Yes.

Like written in the Title, it is for the snapdragon version, Aka 4X
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] nysrin:
Ooh i did not know the only difference between the note 4 and note 4x is that the 4x uses snapdragon.

The reason I was doubting is that I got a different device ID so I thought i my phone is a different model

I will proceed later tonight, thank you for your quick response.

Cool tutorial @djibe89 .Will try it in few days. I am very new to custom roms, my redmi note 4 still has nougat 7.1, forgive me for my ignorance.

My question is after doing all the steps you mentioned above, I will end up with a android 11 rooted phone right ? so is there any way to make it unrooted ? will uninstalling magisk makes phone unrooted?.

Please forgive me if my questions seems too basic. thank you.

I want unrooted because I want to use this device as daily driver with banking apps and others .
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] djibe89:
Well, what happens when you start tutorial from start ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] djibe89:
Hi, even though you don't install Magisk, phone will be seen as hacked by banking apps.

Magisk helps bypass detections.

I cannot garantee banking apps will work.

I'd have to buy a new one to test this. One day maybe.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] vasdev:
Ok, thanks for replying. So, what custom rom or version should I install to make the bank apps think I am using a normal Android phone?

Is that even possible ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] djibe89:
Backup your ROM with TWRP before flashing Android 11.

Try A11.

If you are not happy revert to official 7.1
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kudla:
I have installed the USB drivers on the laptop. Once I boot into fastboot screen on my 'redmi note 4' device, I connect the same to laptop.

But the 'Phone Connected' message does NOT pop up on MI Unlock tool. What am I missing here?

Please advise!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] djibe89:

Do you see a yellow triangle beside it in Windows device management ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Garfoth:
OK so quick question: I just connected my Mi Account to my Redmi Note 4, do I need to wait for some kind of confirmation from Xiaomi? Because as it is now, it doesn't seem to matter whether the "OEM unlock" and "USB debugging toggles" are on or off, or if I've installed the drivers (I installed those posted in this guide), the phone just won't appear either in through fastboot (using the command "fastboot oem device-info") or through the Mi Unlock tool. Am I missing something?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] djibe89:
Hi, like for @Kudla , it seems you have Windows USb faulty drivers.

Try to fix it from Windows Device Manager

Type: fastboot devices to check if device is recognized
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Garfoth:
"fastboot devices" just doesn't do anything. "fastboot oem device-info" just hangs at <waiting for any device>... OEM unlock and USB debugging are both toggled on. The device manager recognises it as "Android" so I assume something happened when I was installing the drivers? If I try re-installing and it still doesn't work, where else can I find these drivers?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] djibe89:
Fastboot devices blank tells that USB drivers are not correct.

From Windows Device Manager, select your "Android" device and you should try to force changing drivers to Xiaomi ones.

Or start fresh from another PC but fastboot drivers install may fail again.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Garfoth:
So far I've gotten the exact same reaction from Windows 7 (fully updated), Windows 8.1 (fully updated) and Windows 10 Pro 21H1, all 64-bit. When I try to install the drivers from device manager (and point it to the folder of your pack) it says "no drivers found". I'm going to just delete and try finding a way to disable Windows trying to install drivers on its own but I highly doubt this is going to do much...

EDIT: OK that's weirder. Today my Windows 8.1 system says, in the update history says the following: "TP-LINK - Other hardware - Android Bootloader Interface".

EDIT 2.0: I have no goddamn idea what exactly i did right but NOW the win8.1 laptop recognised the phone and i could unlock it...
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] djibe89:
Yes, Windows Driver management is tricky.

Nicely done !
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Carambarto:
Thanks for the detailed guide! Hadn't done that in a while so it made the whole thing much easier to get back into. From a quick run through the phone, all seems good. Even better, with my vanilla note 4 I could never see any wifi 5 networks. Now I can! Pretty cool.

I've noticed just one issue (not on your side though) that might need a small mention on the guide: the gapps link for android 11 has a big shortcut button at the top that should point to the latest version but it's the latest android 10 version. Some users will probably click and get stuck while flashing the wrong version.

Edit: the miui unlock version provided is probably deprecated because after logging in, it displays the user settings and nothing else. The miflash_unlock-en-5.5.224.24 has only a batch unlock mode but worked just fine for me (5.5.1008.26 seems ok too).

Tell us if you had to.

To be on safe side i clean flashed A11, afaik flashing a rom top of the another rom could lead system crashes.

Or maybe an app with Proximity sensor could do the hibernation job and answer your need.

thank you fot the great tutorial. i was having problems mounting the storage (on twrp) and couldnt see it on windows, and i was almost panicking, but i found a solution that might help some people if this happens - "adb push command" that transfer the files to the internal storage of the phone.

also in the 6 step

Back to Home > Mount.

Using Windows Explorer, access Redmi Note 4 and copy the TWRP folder from Internal Storage folder to somewhere safe.

but d_xd found a solution to this i guess. ( i wasnt going to back up so it didnt matter to me )

Maybe it will be disappointing for you, i am not so much into this stuff.

- Can you try to wipe all partitions and flash LOS 17 then 18 instead of 19?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Fogdeveloper.blogspot.com:
Latest firmware. I know for that A10 -> A11 -> A12 jumps (I did it before), but now I was hoping that jump A7 -> A12 is possible without much fuzz.

Jump A7 -> A10 to A12 is good.

Greetings fellow modders, I have followed these steps several times now but every time wifi and fingerprint don't work.

I am able to MiFlash back to stock no problem, everything works fine on stock. but every time I boot into LOS 19.1, wifi isn't working.

I had my mido on the last official LOS 16.1, everything working perfectly ever since until I finally got up the nerve to flash an unofficial LOS a couple of days ago. could someone please help me out? (I am not a noob but am a bit rusty and outdated, been away since 2019) Thank you!

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] chuchipando:
Nothing other than LOS when they were official. I bought the phone new and only used miui the first couple of days they make you wait to unlock the bootloader. after that only LOS with no major issues. the worst i ever messed up was just some days ago when i didnt read and downloaded LOS 20 from zeelog's github instead of 19.1. thats when I used MiFlash for the very first time to go back to stock and start over. have tried a few versions of twrp provided on the main LOS19.1 thread but right now im on the one provided here.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] djibe89:

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] chuchipando:
Thank you.

I was able to get it working with some help from someone over at the LOS19.1 thread.

used orangefox recovery, then flashed los17 and the persist image from the oficial miui rom to the persist partition. booted up once, then flashed 19.1 with gapps and magisk and everithing is working fine so far. only issues ive noticed so far is in the morning when i wake up and check the phone, the mobile network is disconnected like there was no sim. rebooting fixes that. was also having some issues with the battery life but seems to be better after some charge and discharge cycles.

I also like to keep an eye on amps when charging, aida64 is showing discharging when charging and vice versa. but the amp value seems to be accurate.
