[Redmi Note 10S] GildroY:
I was able to successfully get root access using the additional step mentioned by @bosr (Thanks a lot for that). However post that I literally bricked my device trying to debloat the device by using debloater. Post removing few of the mi bloatware apps, when I rebooted and the device kept on going into default mi recovery (even with power + vol-). I was not able to access the fastboot mode at all, no matter what I do.

Then I did the ultimate blunder ... reset the device from mi recovery. Post that I lost adb privileges as well. Besides the phone would still not boot - MIUI logo flashed with sound, then a white setup screen for a sec and again reboot.

Searching online could not fetch anything. Then I tried moving the phone to mi assistance mode from mi recovery (which is nothing but sideload mode), connect to PC and used 'adb sideload'.

Voila, the phone was detected, from sideload mode, I was able to reboot to fastboot mode, and then flash the stock rom using miflashtool. Whole 4 hours of tussle.

Sharing here, just in case someone else, gets into the same situation.

!! BADLY WAITING FOR A CLEAN ROM FOR THIS DEVICE .... <Prayers>!!
[Redmi Note 10S] bosr:
It is strange.

I did it on two "10s" devices with EAA roms w/o problems.

Did you flash flash empty vbmeta.img first and boot.img than?

Did you use the latest platform-tools as previous ones are not able to flash directly to boot_a) automatically and you must use fastboot flash boot_a command instead.
[Redmi Note 10S] GildroY:
Apologies for incorrect use of language. What I meant was that your instructions were 100% correct and accurate. However, post getting root access successfully and magisk installed, I tried to debloat the device using 'debloater' module under Magisk and ended up deleting some rogue apps which Mi wants us to keep. All the issues happened after that.

I have updated my original comment as well.
[Redmi Note 10S] bosr:
OK. Apology accepted :)
[Redmi Note 10S] Agzyx:
Hi Y'all,

I just got a new Note 10s and I'm willing to root device.

I'm still in the phase of waiting for the unlocked bootloader, but already trying to get all the necessary data for root.

While searching for the fastbbot Rom to extract the boot.img I discovered the follwing problem:

I can only find the fastboot Rom for the following SW: V12.5.8.0.RKLEUXM

But my Note 10s is already on V12.5.10.0.RKLEUXM. For this SW only the recovery ROM is available.

How long will it take for Xiaomi to upload the latest fastboot ROM? Or am I doing something wrong,

Any help really appreciated

Andreas
[Redmi Note 10S] Mac23:
I also got a new Note 10s. I updated it to the latest available version (12.5.8.0 RKLEUXM, EEA).

Downloaded these ROMs (recovery and fastboot):

miui_ROSEMARYEEAGlobal_V12.5.8.0.RKLEUXM_b29e7c6a8a_11.0.zip

rosemary_eea_global_images_V12.5.8.0.RKLEUXM_20210617.0000.00_11.0_eea_6ec37534bb.tgz

But I didn't found any boot.img in the last fastboot one.

Finally I extracted boot.img from the first one (recovery) using payload_dumper - but what's wrong with the easier and usual way to extract it from the fastboot ROM? Isn't it available anymore inside this ROM?

@Agzyx

You could try the payload_dumper method to extract boot.img from recovery ROM.
[Redmi Note 10S] Agzyx:
@Mac23

payload_dumper may be a solution. I need to wait another 5 days for bootloader unlock anyway, so I have some more time before trying to gain root access.

@All

Is there a way to "downgrade" to V12.5.8.0.RKLEUXM?

Loss of data is no problem, as the phone will be rooted anyway in the future.

Andreas
[Redmi Note 10S] bosr:
It should be possible with XiaoMiTool
[Redmi Note 10S] bosr:
Not sure, what you are looking for, but boot.img is in the fastboot rom:

[Redmi Note 10S] Agzyx:
Hi bosr,

Which Rom should I use for the xiaomitool? The recovery rom or the fastboot rom (which I need anyway for the boot.img)?

Regards

Andreas
[Redmi Note 10S] bosr:
It is MiFlash tool combined with MiUnlock tool, with a bunch of extra features (adb, fastboot, drivers auto installation, unbricking, bootloader unlocking,etc.)

Just one line from description:

"Autonomous decision of installation type: fastboot, stock recovery, twrp, fastboot recovery and more to come"

I would suggest to try it and explore possibilities ;) before "hot" use
[Redmi Note 10S] Agzyx:
o.k.

Thanks bosr.

Will try next weekend when the bootloader is unlocked.

Andreas
[Redmi Note 10S] Agzyx:
One question before I start:

Is this the right order:?

1. Unlock Bootloader

2. Downgrade the phone to the last version with a fastboot Rom published (AntiRollBack version is the same!) using MiFlashTool

3. copy boot.img to phone

4. run magisk on phone and patch boot.img

5. copy patched boot.img to PC and rename to boot.img

6. Flash empty vbmeta.img

7. flash patched boot.img

8. Reboot

9. Success

How to I upgrade to a higher software version afterwards?

1. Flash new ROM

and then again from step 3 from above or is there an easier way?
[Redmi Note 10S] Mac23:
You are right! Seems to be an issue with the integrated archive viewer of Double Commander.

Using tar directly shows up boot.img:

tar --list -f

[Redmi Note 10S] bosr:
Upgrade to a higher ROM version as you described seems to be the only way.

I´ve tested an official Magisk guidance but it ended in fastboot bootloop softbrick.

I must fastboot flash clean boot.img (non of data lost :) ) and and follow steps from 3 to 9 afterwards
[Redmi Note 10S] Agzyx:
worked through my list, except for the downgrade of the software.

The corresponding fastboot rom was published just about before I wanted to start the downgrade..

Root was succcessful.

But only to data_b. The vbmeta.img and the boot.img automatically flashed to data_b.

Do I need to flash them to data_a as well?

Now after playing around a little bit (trying Island to run the banking app) I think I mixed up some or most of the settings.

The Always-on-Display is not switching off after 10 seconds even after triple checking the option in the settings. Also in Tasker I can not choose a local media Icon for a task. On top of that some of the permissions are mixed up as well.

I think I will reset the phone to factory settings.

Is root lost after that or still available?

Andreas
[Redmi Note 10S] bosr:
Regarding AOD:

Did you try to check, under Developer options option MIUI optimization? If it is on the display with AoD stays permanently on.

Rest of your questions cannot help as on my phone all what I need works, banking apps included.

Nonetheless do not think that it is neccessary to reset to factory settings.

If it worked and it stopped to work after your experiments, you should be able to revert it ;)
[Redmi Note 10S] murigny64:
LOOK AT THE THREAD: "How to flash TWRP"

all other answer are useless here !!!
[Redmi Note 10S] GAGANKXDA:
both methods did'nt worked, it stucks on fastboot login itself even after rebooting devices it reboots to fastboot state only..
[Redmi Note 10S] bosr:
Try this one, it works ;)
[Redmi Note 10S] Agzyx:
Hi bosr,

that was the trick. I had switched off the Miui optimization, after switching it on again, tasker is working as expected and AOD is also working as intended.

So no need for a factory reset.

One other thing about flashing Software with MiFlashTool. I tried with a fastboot Rom and the software stated the need for a TWRP installation first, which is not possible (yet).

While looking for the download of the recovery ROM, I found that XIAOMI published the fastboot Rom for the already installed version. So i did not try to install recovery ROM.

Andreas
[Redmi Note 10S] Agzyx:
Did you flash the empty vbmeta.img before the patched boot.img?

Did you have the right Software (exact software, which is on the phone)?

Maybe reflash the original ROM and start again?

On my phone everything worked like a charm.

Andreas
[Redmi Note 10S] Redmi note 10s:
please make twrp or orange fox or any type of custom recovery for my redmi note 10s so that i install custom rom and custom kernal
[Redmi Note 10S] bosr:
AFAIK there is neither TWRP nor custom ROM for RN 10S available yet.

Related topic discussed here
[Redmi Note 10S] Mac23:
Just for clarification:

I successfully rooted my Redmi Note 10s as described here.

This device has A/B partition scheme. I flashed it this way:

1. fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

2. fastboot flash boot magisk_patched-23000_JBKu8.img

Automatically the active partition (a in my case) was used, for example:

target reported max download size of 134217728 bytes
sending 'vbmeta_a' (4 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.008s]
writing 'vbmeta_a'...
OKAY [ 0.001s]
finished. total time: 0.009s

So am I'm right, that I also have to flash boot_b and vbmeta_b? If I don't do it, root will be lost at the next OTA, right?
[Redmi Note 10S] bosr:
OTA is not so easy. Read here in this thread or directly How to install OTA updates on rooted android devices using Magisk

​
[Redmi Note 10S] Agzyx:
Hi GildroY,

which software did you debloat successfully?

I'm also looking for some debloating my note10s.

Based on your experience do not want to try around and brick my device (at least not before a full TRWP backup is possible).

Andreas
[Redmi Note 10S] bosr:
I would take it from the other side. What do you want to debloat?

Instead of immediate uninstall, you can try "freeze" application first and delete if it did not cause problems.

It is generally better proceed in steps, ie. 1 app per 1 attempt :)
[Redmi Note 10S] HeiloWorid:
flash with fastboot flash boot bot.img

But when I flash fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

C:\adb\fastboot.exe: unknown option -- disable-verity

Return unknown option -- disable-verity

Edit: In Windows Power Shell return error then i try in cmd as administrator and start working .

Thank you I successfully rooted my Redmi Note 10s.
[Redmi Note 10S] Agzyx:
Hi bosr,

I also tried and I am stuck on fastboot bootloop.

How do I got back to normal use?

Update: I flashed my phone with miFlashTool and the actual software. Even though the process failed the phone booted into normal mode. After that I used magisk to gain root again (flashed empty vbmeta.img and patched boot.img)

Andreas
[Redmi Note 10S] bosr:
After another OTA update I lost root again :LOL: so I decided stay w/o it in the future.

I did not find a solid reason to stay rooted anymore.
[Redmi Note 10S] Mdalmamun:
But i think a magisk module would help me to record calls.

Is there any guide from u about flashing that rom?
[Redmi Note 10S] HeiloWorid:

[Redmi Note 10S] jiriks74:
The title speaks for itself. I found twrp and orangefox recovery images on androidfilehost, but when I try to flash them like so:

My wizard does not viberate anymore, does anyone know programs can cause this problem?

i recently installed

Adv config, capsure, PCMkeyboard, S2V (uninstalled, since it wouldn't load)

ClearTemp, palringo (also uninstalled).

I think it was working before i installed these programs.

thanks

I think the only way you can get this to work its by a hard reset...

If it dont works... its hardware... dissasembly your Wizard and check your vibrator motor maybe unpluged or burned. :(

How can I fix this big problem??

[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] tonyboy_23:
Hi All. First post so please be gentle.

After searching and googlingfor a long time, i have tried a few ways to root my S20 FE (4G).

I have tried KingRoot, no success.

I have tried going down the flashing route, but I am greeted with 'Only official can be flashed (recovery) and (vbmeta) - i have tried flashing the vbmeta disabled.... I also tried using Magisk to create a modified AL file and then flashing it back, but that gave the same result as above.

I have unlocked the bootloader, made a mess first time, so flashed back to stock. Re-locked and unlocked bootloader again.

I'm hoping there is a simple thing that I have got wrong, or forgotten to do etc.

Searches of google for the error message about official firmware etc. turned up a few results, but they all seemed to be flashing other stuff, which it seems i cannot do.

Any ideas?

I have never been able to use an MP3 file as an SMS, Mail, MMS, Alarm etc tone. Using it for a ringtone however works fine.

It seems that it only want WAV files if you want it for an SMS, Mail etc tone. So convert the file to WAV using you PC / MAC and drop it in /Windows. Then you can select it.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niggonet:
Hi there!

I have a Fire TV Stick 4K with an debloated ROM running and hooked up to my older 4K TV.

It's a Sony 55XD85 with HDR10 signal support but I don't like how Netflix HDR looks on this TV.

Fire TV options do not work to get rid of HDR output and TV settings same (it's an ATV Generation 1 TV but global disable possibility is only available in ATV 2).

So do you know if it's possible to forbid (Netflix) HDR output Android-sided or is this not possible because of HDCP or similar?

I had a look in "/sys/class/graphics/fd0" but didn't see anything HDR related.

Thanks,
