I just opened the root.bat from the other method in the 5.0.1 page and pasted the cmds manually in a cmd prompt
seems to have worked as I can use a terminal emulator and enter 'su' and get Superuser prompt
I believe it is/was more or less this
You will need the root_fire.zip from the other thread, and then open a command window in the folder where you extract those files.

Well I have tried to install MIUI ROM 6.5.26 after not processing updates for months (since november).
So I downloaded latest ROM and put it to the top of the partitions and then I wiped everything and that's where i might have done a mistake: I wiped internal storage (inside TWRP 2.8.7 i found there http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-...timizing-leo-miui-advanced-tweaks-to-t3286972) then I might have might done a second mistake: I have done the command fastboot 'flash boot boot.img' as I read on an old HTC forum.
Then I pushed the latest ROM to the phone (as it was not there after the wipes) and when I tried installing it, it gave E: unable to mount 'cache' .
Now it seems i cannot enter TWRP, only Fastboot or I am stuck with MI logo.
I just want to install latest ROM, as I have done Titanium Backup before all the mess.
I don't know where i should start.
I am on mac so cannot use Mi Flash

you wiped internal sd so you have nothing the only way to solve is
Download the fastboot ROM https://www.dropbox.com/s/dg198q49dctzfgr/leo_images_5.11.26_20151104.0000.4_5.1_cn.tar.gz?dl=0 (recomend this others from this year locked bootloader)
Extract it to the same directory you extracted ADB/Fastboot
Press "Windows key + X" -> "Command Prompt (administrator)
In command prompt, go to your folder where your ADB/Fastboot are, assuming they are in C:\Fastboot, you type
> cd C:\Fastboot
> C:
10. Once in the "C:\Fastboot" folder, you will need to issue a chain of commands to flash critical images, so type:
C:\Fastboot>fastboot devices
C:\Fastboot>fastboot flash tz tz.mbn
C:\Fastboot>fastboot flash dbi sdi.mbn
C:\Fastboot>fastboot flash sbl1 sbl1.mbn
C:\Fastboot>fastboot flash rpm rpm.mbn
C:\Fastboot>fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn
C:\Fastboot>fastboot erase boot
C:\Fastboot>fastboot flash misc misc.img
C:\Fastboot>fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

C:\Fastboot>fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
C:\Fastboot>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
C:\Fastboot>fastboot flash boot boot.img
C:\Fastboot>fastboot reboot
Now you're all set and should be able to boot normally.
after you can install recovery

It broke halfway, so I am trying again. Thank you for your patience.
Well, I downloaded it entirely and tried "fastboot the tz", then I get -> "device is locked. Cannot flash images"...
So I guess I locked my bootloader already, somehow... :crying:

Enter your phone in fastboot mode
in command promt wrtite:
cmd
cd C:\fastboot
fastboot devices
fastboot oem edl
After the last command Your Note pro detected as a new device
Launch MiFlash and flash Note pro not locked ROM if you get one error at the midle (not at the beginnig) of flashing dont worry, you have unlocked bootloader, and you can folow the previous steps you already tried
The latest roms from xiaomi (since January 2016) lockes bootloader that is why i recomend that on the link.
Thanks
But I am on Mac, no MiFlash, only ADB, fastboot...

to work on mac
Download the fastboot ROM for your Mi phone and place it on your desktop. Double-click on it and Archive Utility will extract the file on the desktop, so you'll get a folder,
now go to terminal an type
cd C:\fastboot
fastboot devices
fastboot oem edl
In order to use the fastboot scripts, you should go to the folder. For that purpose, execute the following command (the folder name may be different in your case, the example below is for cancro):
cd ~/Desktop/cancro_global_images_V7.0.5.0.KXDMICI_20151016.0000.3_4.4_global
Copy the Code
Quick tip: you don't need to write the whole folder name, just type cd ~/Desktop/cancro, then press the Tab key and Terminal will append the folder name automatically.
Once inside, you need to make the scripts (all the files with .sh extension) executable. Execute the following command:
chmod +x ./*.sh
Now, the scripts are ready to use. In order to start the process, issue one of the following commands:
./flash_all.sh
or
./flash_all_except_storage.sh
or
./flash_all_except_data_storage.sh
When you start any of the scripts, you'll see the fastboot messages, flowing through the Terminal window. Once the script has done its work, the phone will restart itself automatically.
When I change directory for the fastboot ROM directory, the fastboot screen on my phone disappears. I have done the steps after that but i see no message on the terminal or the phone screen. My phone screen is black.
Edit: In fact the fastboot screen on my phone disappears when I type fastboot oem edl in my terminal although i get the message OKAY in my terminal.

so don't change the directory put the rom in the fastboot folder and do the next step
if you are not able to flash in your mac try in another pc (windows)

every time I type:
fastboot oem edl
the screen of the smartphone goes off
Maybe I will buy Windows to make it work in VM...
Only can you interpretate why fastboot oem edl makes the screen go off?

do you have qualcom drivers instaled?
No
Will try tomorrow.
Thanks again.
The link to your dropbox for Qualcomm drivers is for Windows, i found that:https://developer.qualcomm.com/download/software
and Snapdragon SDK but I have to register.
Is Snapdragon SDK actually Qualcomm drivers?
