How do I root this?
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] BR/user:
Is there a way or Magisk module that adds notification ringtone when battery charge reaches 100%?

I know there are several apps on the Play Store with this functionality. But it would be great to have it already implemented in Rom/Firmware. Because on Xiaomi devices with a 120W charger where the device charges quickly, it would be interesting to have this function.

Does anyone know if the POCO F4 GT is a single slot/partition device or an A/B slot/partition device?

I have to know before flashing the Magisk patched boot.img file or otherwise I risk bricking the phone.
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] Rulas25:
This is an A/B device.
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] Ragnar Eldur:
Thanks allot, now I can easily root the phone.

Just need install Minimal ADB Fastboot,

and copy the Magisk patched boot.img file into the Minimal ADB Fastboot program folder.

Install the Xiaomi driver found in the Mi Unlock Tool folder.

Unlock the phone with the Mi Unlock Tool after adding the Mi account in the Mi Unlock Status under development tools. Reboot to fastboot and flash the Magisk patch boot.img file with Minimal ADB Fastboot, like this:

fastboot flash boot_a boot.img

fastboot flash boot_b boot.img

fastboot reboot

Yeah I just reached the top seat on AnTuTu!

I used a cooling fan, K8, found on AliExpress to keep the phone from throttling.

I am expecting another fan that is magnetic and a cooling plate that increases the cooling area and reaches the area of the CPU, so I might even get a higher score with that comboo.

My phone is the POCO F4 GT.
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] Gabriel7-:
Qual rom você está usando, o que mais você usa além de usar o cooler para pegar essa pontuação no antutu

Mod translation via GT: What rom are you using, what else do you use besides using the cooler to get that score on antutu
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] Ragnar Eldur:
I added AnTuTu as a game with the Game Space and use these settings as seen in the screenshots. I also let the fan cool down the phone to the lowest temperature before running the benchmark.

I plan on rooting the phone so I can tweak the performance even better, but I have to wait for a week before the Mi Unlock Tool can unlock the bootloader. If you have root then I recommend LSpeed, SD Maid Pro and 3C Toolbox Pro. Oh can't wait to be able to use Viper4Android with my Crusher EVO headphones, that combo is like HEAVEN!
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] Appreciative:

I PM'd bouyhy01 to ask him about his experience with the phone. He said it runs too hot and he sold it for a $ loss to get something else.

I live in a hot environment (100+ days of 100°F/40°C and some touches of 120+/50°C). This somewhat concerns me. I am looking at the OP9Pro too.

Do you game on your k50g/pocof4gt? If so, is it too hot? (Specifically cod mobile is only game I play) Does it lag or shut down etc?

I'm also looking at the k50 Ultra/Extreme but they're not in the USA yet. Ship from China
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] bouyhy01:
Avoir sd 8gen1 and get the new 8+gen1, thr first one is samsung manfactured and the second is tmsc's, huge difference in thermals, i can tell that because i used both soc, if you really wanna a powerfull phone with support and easy to root unbrick etc.. Get the rog phone 6, its day one unlockable and rootable and even the edl firmware is realed after only couple of days
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] bouyhy01:
Get the rog phone 6, im from Frabce and never purchased a single phone from it coz of the prices i always order from china and never had anh problem in over 50 smartphones, aliexpress/ tradingshenzhen dhgate, banggood,
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] Ragnar Eldur:
ROG Phones 6 is way too expensive, I'd go with Redagic 7S Pro. It has all kinds of tech to maximize performance and keep the gameplay ultra smooth. It also has a special extra chip that handles auxiliary processes to let the CPU handle the main processes at full speed. And thanks to the built in fan, it never throttles.
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] Ragnar Eldur:
I got this score with my POCO F4 GT:

I am using a magnetic cooling plate and a magnetic cooling fan, Plextone EX1. It cools down really quickly and goes really low in temperature. The cooling plate that is attached to the phone increases the cooling area from the fan that is attached to the plate. It cools the phone from 40 degrees down to 20 degrees. So it makes a big difference when it comes to performance and endurance. It also increases the lifespan of the battery and charging the phone goes faster because the battery doesn't overheat with the fan and cooling plate working on the back of the phone.
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] bouyhy01:
I was aiming for the rog 6 too but the price dont helped me so i took the realme gt 2 master, im not a big fan of redmagic because of the software support, unlike the rog 6 who gets monthy updates + you can easily unlock it root and switch btwn firmware+ edl firehose files are released quickly+ it has 3rd party support because it is well used in india

Hi

I finally managed to buy this smartphone

Pocophone F4 GT 12/256

I am looking for a good guide to unlock the bootloader and enable root permissions.

I have this version installed V13.0.8.0

I wanted to ask some questions before I do any damage to the device.

1) once I unlock the bootloader can I go back to lock it?

2) once I do unlock the bootloader and enable root permissions, can I backup the device?

"That way if I go to delete some important files for the system or always backup and I can go back to the initial state."

3) if I unlock the bootloader and enable root permissions, can I continue to update the phone system without losing root permissions?

So to recap, the goal is to:

-unlocking the bootloader

-enable root permissions

Thank you so much for your patience
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] austick:
Hi, i can answer some questions.

1- YES, you can block with adb commands.

2 - The only way to backup all important files its with TWRP and select backup.

3 - No, if you use official roms you can't update automatically but can update downloading the update file (zip file) but after upgrading you will have to re-patch the boot.img file to be root.

if you need a good guide to unlock
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] westenlive:
I thank you so much

From the video it all looks very simple.

Can you tell me where I can download the recovery TWRP?

My goal is to have root permissions.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I get this I would like to backup from recovery to be safe and be able to use it if I mess up within the system having root permissions enabled.

Can I do this from recovery?

thanks
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] marvi0:
Hi guys. Do we still need to wait 7 days to unlock the bootloader?. Also what's the best stock ROM without needing to unlock the bootloader for the Poco f4 gt?
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] Ragnar Eldur:
Here's a solid method to root the phone and install TWRP Recovery Mode:

First you have to use the Mi Unlock Tool to unlock the bootloader. Before doing that you have to go to the developer tools section and click on Mi Unlock Status, there you have to add the current Mi account to be able to use the Mi Unlock Tool, note that after adding the account you have to wait for 7 days before being able to unlock the phone.

You can get the Mi Unlock Tool here:

Apply for permissions to unlock Mi devices

en.miui.com

Extract the zip file and in the folder you have the fastboot program and the fastboot driver installer for the phone.

Here you can get the latest TWRP file for the phone: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=14871746926876823387

Rename the TWRP file to TWRP.img and move it to the Mi Unlock Tool folder.

You also have to install the proper driver for the phone so the computer can use the fastboot for the phone. Boot into fastboot mode and connect the phone to the computer and run the driver installer.

After seven days you can run the Mi Unlock Tool. You have to sign into your current Mi account with the Mi Unlock Tool and verify the account with either receiving SMS verification or Email verification. Then you can boot the phone into fastboot mode and run the Unlock process. After finishing the process, the phone will be wiped and rebooted.

Now you can boot the phone into fastboot mode and connect it to the computer. Go into the Mi Unlock Tool folder and type CMD in the address bar. After the terminal has opened, type fastboot devices to be sure the phone is connected. After that type fastboot boot TWRP.img, that will boot the phone into TWRP. The TWRP will start in Chinese so you have to click on the button third down on the right side and in there click on the last section to the right and there you can choose English. Now you can click on the Advanced section and choose the Install Recovery Ramdisk and choose the TWRP.img file to install. At last go to the Wipe section and choose Format Data.

If you want to root the phone, you can get the latest Magisk here: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v25.2/Magisk-v25.2.apk

Use TWRP to install Magisk. Rename the file to magisk.zip so can install it with TWRP. Connect the phone to the computer and move the Magisk file to the phone's storage. Then click on the install section in TWRP and choose the Magisk file to flash it to the phone. After that format the data again and reboot the phone to the system.

Now the phone should successfully be rooted and have the TWRP as the Recovery Mode.

The latest TWRP does not have the Module Repo anymore but you can use this Magisk Module Repo Manager instead to download any modules you want: https://github.com/Fox2Code/FoxMagiskModuleManager/releases/download/0.6.5/FoxMmm-0.6.5.apk
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] Ragnar Eldur:
You can update the system by using the default native system update manager. Just flash the TWRP file with the Magisk manager afterwards before rebooting the phone and flash Magisk choosing flash into inactive slot. Then you can reboot without loosing root or TWRP.
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] Ragnar Eldur:
No your can use the native system update manager, just be sure not to reboot the phone after the update installation is complete, just flash the TWRP file with Magisk and flash Magisk choosing flash into inactive slot. Then you can reboot the phone without loosing root or TWRP.
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] westenlive:
I thank you so much for all this information you wrote.

Right now I have to wait 7 days to be able to unlock my smartphone.

I have followed your guide.

One question I want to ask you.

When you say that you can update the OS through native system update manager, then from Magisk I have to flash TWRP recovery then again from Magisk that I have to flash Magisk.zipper both on the inactive slot, example if I flashed on slot A the first time I have to use slot B. ALL BEFORE REBOOTING AFTER UPDATING THE DEVICE.

Is this the correct procedure?

THANK YOU

I bought the k50 gaming and the boatloader was unlocked and i cant use bank apps, is there any way to lock the boatloader again??
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] austick:
yes, you only has to put your device in fastboot mode and run the code in CMD. You lost all your data, don't forget to flash a miui rom before just in case.
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] Jifara:
But my phone is k50 Chinese version and came with a global version which opened the boatloader, can I close the boatloader with the global version on it!! Cause some one warned me to lock the boatloader on the global version and if i can't locl is there any way to run bank apps while boatloader is unlocked??
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] austick:
be careful, if the phone came with the unlocked bootloader you will not be able to lock it again because it has been unlocked with another account different from the new lock, you can lock the phone permanently. If you have the phone unlocked, you just have to flash any rom as well as third-party roms, but I would not block it again until you verify that you can link your account with that phone.
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] westenlive:
hello Ragnar Eldur

I report my experience with your guide.

After unlocking the bootloader, I downloaded the TWRP recovery that you linked.

Giving the command: fastboot boot xxxx.img The result was that it was giving me error not booting into the recovery.

I was DESPERATE BECAUSE IT WASN'T EVEN GOING INTO THE OPERATING SYSTEM, IT WAS CREATING A BOOTLOOP.

I found another guide and it basically said that this terminal can have two versions:

- from xiaomi.eu

- from skkk

I realized that the recovery you linked is this xiaomi.eu, while with my terminal it was necessary to use this recovery from skkk.

However I managed to install the latest version of recovery twrp, exactly this one:

[BOOT]3.6.2_12-RedmiK50G_v6.3_A12-ingres-skkk_2567e3d6.zip

And it worked.

I tried to flash MAGISK.zipper according to your guide, but when I go back to S.O. I don't see the magisk application.

Kindly can you help me to root this terminal?

Also I was following the issue of banking apps giving so many problems if you have root to the device, how can this problem be solved?

thank you very much.
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] Rulas25:
You guys might be overcomplicating things a bit. SKKK's TWRP already has some useful functions to install TWRP and Magisk built-in.

1.- Download Latest TWRP, the one that starts with [BOOT] and unzip

2.- In your PC: fastboot boot [Path of .img]

3.- (Optional) In TWRP: Advanced > Flash Current TWRP

4.- In TWRP: Advanced >Install Magisk

And that's about it.

Note that Magisk always goes after TWRP, otherwise it gets overwritten. Also, both TWRP and Magisk get removed when installing a new ROM so you'd need to install them again.

I got the Poco F4 GT. Great phone overall, had a few bugs with some apps, but uninstalling them and reinstalling them worked well. Very fast, smooth, beautiful screen and insane charging speeds which surprise me each time.

My issue which is bothering me is performance when gaming. I play call of duty with 2 of my friends, one running an iphone 11 pro max (A13 chip) and the other a black shark 4 (870 chip). Both have their graphics set to highest while I have mine is set to 2nd highest with many options turned off. Yet, whenever we start a game, 99% of the time the iphone starts first (thus, becoming team leader) and 90-95% of the time the black shark starts 2nd, with me always coming in 3rd place. I dont understand how this is possible with all benchmarks showing the 8gen1 as a much superior chip! I even got a black shark cooling fan to limit cpu throttling. Meanwhile many times my the guy with the 870 chip doesnt always turn on performance mode and doesnt use a fan either and still starts the gane faster than me. Is there a reason for this?

I have battery mode set to performance, i start the game using game boost with performance and turbo turned on. From within the game i use the shoulder options for game boost to boost the game and also set to performance. Help?

I highly recommend the Kiwi browser, it is highly customizable and it supports Chrome Extensions.

There are 3 extensions that are a must have:

Ublock Origin - Blocks totally ads, cleans up the leftover from the ads. It also bypasses AdBlock detection.

Touch VPN - Easy Fast & Free VPN with extra tracking preventions.

Full Screen Button - Properly fill the screen with the webpage.

Here you can find the latest TWRP for POCO F4 GT: https://sourceforge.net/projects/recovery-for-xiaomi-devices/files/ingres/

And here you can find the latest Mi Flash Tool which flashes fastboot ROMs, just install the drivers in the program and extract the fastboot rom file. Browse for the folder and click refresh in the Flash Tool. At the bottom you select clean all, not clean all and lock, that will lock the bootloader and I haven't found any fastboot rom that has the flash_all_lock.bat, only flash_all.bat. When you ready you click the flash button. When it's done it will reboot the phone and load up the system. If you want TWRP back, just reboot into fastboot mode. Use the Minimal ADB Fastboot program and move the TWRP file into that folder. Run CMD and type in fastboot boot twrp.img (or the same name of the twrp file) after that, go to advanced and flash current twrp. Then the TWRP is the current recovery mode. You can also flash Magisk in the advanced section, do not choose the alpha version, just the stable.

Here is a EU version of MIUI that offers several features that are missing from the Global version, just flash it with TWRP, and remember to flash TWRP afterwards, you can choose that to automatically happen and after installing is completed, reboot into recovery mode and flash Magisk, in the advanced section.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/xiaomi-eu-multilang-miui-roms/files/xiaomi.eu/MIUI-STABLE-RELEASES/MIUIv13/xiaomi.eu_multi_INGRES_V13.0.11.0.SLJCNXM_v13-12.zip/download?use_mirror=netix&download=&failedmirror=kumisystems.dl.sourceforge.net

EDIT: I've posted a better way of rooting the phone and installing custom recovery. I also recommend the Global Stable ROM foremost. TWRP and Magisk can be installed with the latest TWRP as the files are built in the TWRP.
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] hoggar58:
Yeap bro please do one withe more details , like 2 slots A,B and how to get boot.img , and when u want to switch to another custom . Please man , i'm following u .
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] RagnarEldur:
With the latest TWRP you can let it flash Magisk and TWRP after each flashing process and the needed files are built in the TWRP so updating the ROM is really easy.
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] RagnarEldur:
Sometimes you need to flash Magisk again, you can find the install Magisk under the advanced section in TWRP. You can also find install TWRP under the advanced section. This can also be set to automatically flash TWRP and Magisk after each ROM flash. You can also just try downloading the latest Magisk APK file at GitHub and install the app, you should see in the app if you are properly rooted.

I also recommend getting the Fox Magisk Module Manager, with it you can get all the Magisk Modules you want.
[Xiaomi Poco F4 GT /  Redmi K50 Gaming] RagnarEldur:
If you have finished unlocking the bootloader, all you need to do is to boot into fastboot mode and use the Mi Unlock folder with the TWRP file located in that folder. Type CMD in the address bar of the folder to correctly open up the fastboot terminal. Then simply type fastboot boot TWRP.img to boot into TWRP. Then you go to the advanced section and choose the Install/Flash current TWRP. After that you select reboot into recovery mode. Then you go again to the advanced section and choose install Magisk to root the phone. After that you usually need to format data so it will boot correctly. I highly recommend the Fox Magisk Module Manager to get all the best Magisk Modules.
