ROOT "miui 8.5.2.0 stable" global version ROM

HIi xda's,
I am in wait for Xiaomi to unchain my BL .....after so...
Can you please link me to a guide, to safely and easily root the mentioned phone ? (redmi 4x 32gb 3gb. with "miui 8.5.2.0 stable" global version ROM).
Is there any issues with MIUI rooted ROM, except to problems with OTA ?
( i just want to root that device safely so i can edit some system files like HOST etc...) at this moment, i want to stay with the original ROM.)
Thank you.
and sorry for my English in advanced.

Hello.
If it can help you.
I 'm running this rom, i've rooted it with magiksk V14.
you must install twrp before root.
Good luck.

I have just got the permission from Xiaomi and unlocked my BL :good:
most of the new guides of how to install twrp and root, are old or in Hindi, can you please link me to an english tutorial that will work on the relevant version ?
Thank you.

This tutorial is what I used for getting twrp on my device
https://www.reddit.com/r/Xiaomi/wiki/flashing/flashtwrp

Did you install the official twrp or Cofface ?
i want to stay with the original rom, what is the best method not to lose twrp after rebooting into system, if i install the official twrp ?
thank you.

I originally went with the cofface version since I also wanted to use the stock rom
Eventually I flashed a few custom roms and decided to update to the official twrp later on

If it helps someone,
i flashed TWRP on redmi 4x with "miui 8.5.2.0 stable" global version ROM following that link : https://twrp.me/xiaomi/xiaomiredmi4x.html.
don't forget to root, right after you flash TWRP

Hi,
If i understood correctly;
1) You flashed official TWRP by "fastboot install method", right?
2) Which root method and version did you use? Supersu or magisk or..?
3) You are still on official global stable v8.5.2.0, and official Twrp is still installed (not replaced), right?
And also, i wonder if i can boot to official TWRP recovery temporarily (without installing to the device) and flash Magisk v14.0 afterwards, still on official global stable v8.5.2.0. Will try soon.

yes, you understand correctly the twrp flash method.
i flashed first magisk v12 and then update it to v14. you can flash v14 right away, no probs. now i have changed to 8.5.4.0 global stable(nougat...), and i flashed latest ver of supersu and everything works just great.

Can anyone confirm this? There's a new OTA update available for mi max 2 but I'm not updating coz I'm waiting for 72 hours to complete so I can unlock bootloader. I'm kinda worried that if I update my device to miui 9.2 I might have problem unlocking my bootloader. So I'm thinking to unlock my bootloader first & then update my device thru OTA update.

I've got them but don't launch the upgrade because, if I do that, it remove my twrp by re-flashing xioami stock recovery.
I've got a global beta rom, bootloader unlocked, twrp installed and rom rooted.

oh wow, so even with all that ota updates are possible, good to know
flashing twrp isnt a big deal though, just boot into fastboot, connect to pc and input a command, thats it not like u need hours of work to get it done
would be interesting to know if the rom gets unrooted on update.

I received a phone with an unlocked bootloader. It just received V9.0.3.0.NDDMIEI
I don't know if it's just the China model reflashed with the English ROM or what, but it's definitely got an unlocked bootloader and I'm not sure why.

Am I correct in thinking that the update would have reflashed the recovery area and eliminated anything that didn't belong? I put TWRP on it and I'm going to load a stock ROM through TWRP.
I'm wondering whether I've gotten ahead of myself and I should have gone Stock ROM-->TWRP-->Stock ROM with root.
I'm also not sure if the rooted stock ROM will allow me to enable LTE bands just by changing NVRAM settings in QPST. Does anyone know if the bands are blocked in MIUI as well?

I run unlocked boot loader, global stable and Magisk.
Every OTA, I gotta reflash TWRP, and reinstall Magisk, but yeah, I can OTA.

How do you install OTA? from the updater app in the device OR full Rom in twrp?

I just use the updater app, it reboots, and then proceeds to flash and remove TWRP and Magisk.
The only time that I've used TWRP is to flash Magisk.

Just I want. I only need TWRP to flash Magisk to enable use of Titanium Backup Pro and any adsblocker.
So Flashing TWRP via fastboot, then using TWRP flash Magisk. Use mobile as usually and when i update via OTA, reflash TWRP and Magisk, true?
EDIT: After flashing Magisk, flash stock recovery via fastboot so mobile is ready to OTA update. Right?

Yeah, just choose to download the full rom press reboot and it'll upgrade, then flash TWRP and Magisk again.

so you are saying ota update through updater app is not working?
do i need mi app on pc to update,that too after downloading the full rom for every update?
status: bl UNLOCKED ,root-NO

I dont think so, if you allow replacement of twrp by stock recovery after magisk flashing i think it should be possible install ota using update app. When its done, then reflash twrp and magisk from it.

I have redmi note 11 pro (china) which it's bootloader unlocked and installed global miui rom cause with stock recovery and not rooted so will I receive OTA updates?
And is there anything I should do specifically for this case while updating the phone

Magisk issues

when i try to install it i get bootloop and when it installs i get a error that i need to update or reinstall and modules wont work or install but when it updates or reinstall i get a bootloop and then i get pushed into recovery, i installed magisk and patched the boot.img file same error.
what i tryed
1- flashed magisk zip from twrp
2-flashed magisk patched boot with fastboot
3-flashed magisk patched boot and wiped data it crashes some times and works sometime but with out modules and i get error i need to update.
4-flashed EU rom and did the same steps same error
i have
K20pro 10.3.3 global
tried miui eu 10.3.3
the fix
used orange fox recovery with the 19.4 magisk and it worked for me i downloaded it from https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/how-to/redmi-k20-pro-firmware-10-3-8-0-9-6-13-t3939647
1- you need a otg with a flash memory.
2-install orange fox recovery .
3-wipe data cash and devcash internal storage .
4-from the settings mount system and vendor.
5-then install the magisk 19.4 clear cash and reboot now it works fine for me.

when i first rooted global rom on Mi9t pro i flashed magisk 19.3 and it boot back to twrp then i went to advanced wipe and format data reboot and all is good did you try that.

yeah it wont run modules

the reason for bootloop often is not formating data thats why i asked iff you tried that after flashing magisk.

i get requires additional setup
your device needs additional setup for magisk to work properly.it will download magisk setup zip, do you want to proceed now?
when i press yes i get a bootloop issue
and if dont i cant run modules
when i try to install modules i get update to the latest magisk its up to date 19.3 and 7.3.2

when you get the bootloop issue after flashing the modules go into twrp and go to advanced wipe then format data i think this is possibly the issue. But backup internal storage to laptop or somewhere before doing this step.

Have you tried any other version of magisk? Which version are you using and are you on the magisk manager latest version. Perhaps try magisk 19.4

Where did you get Magisk from? Are you downloading from the official Magisk github site?

Yes

I have the same problem. I'm on 9T Pro Global on a K20 Pro Raphael. Installed TWRP and Flashed Magisk. Then wipe advanced Davisk and DATA. I installed Magisk manager but cannot install modules... I'm on latest version... It says requires additional setup but sends me to TWRP and I have to restart system all over again.

test 19.4 same issue need to update to make it work

used orange fox recovery with the 19.4 magisk and it worked for me i downloaded it from https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/how-to/redmi-k20-pro-firmware-10-3-8-0-9-6-13-t3939647

I'm glad you guys found a fix I was on miui global mi9t Pro and I used twrp from Marino installed magisk 19.3 that's it I was rooted and I had no issue installing modules I had about 7 of them installed. Good luck anyway orange fix supposed to be a good recovery.

Problem after installing Magisk

Hi, I've been trying to root my phone for a while now. I tried installing twrp mauronofrio and orange fox, but when I flash the magisk zip, it enters in some kind of bootloop, but it takes me to the recovery again. I've tried uninstalling magisk, so it will make my phone work again, but then I have to install the recovery again. So, anyone knows why I can't flash magisk nor keep the recovery?
Thanks

Should that be 'fastboot flash recovery' ??

Hey, I ran into the same problem today. If I find a solution, I'll let you know. I would be glad if you share too.

I tried again yesterday to install Pixel Experience, and again it just boot loops when booting into recovery mode. I've now reinstalled stock Miui and will try again.

There no recovery partition so it shouldn't. I'm on this ROM currently and have no problems with installation. The guide says that you need to be on latest global a11 miui (12.5.16.0.RKLMIXM). You didn't miss that?

I've no idea what version of the bootloader I'm on as getprop ro.bootloader returns 'unknown'
But, as I'm on "latest" v13 Miui, I suspect the bootloader is the wrong one. Do I have to downdate to 12.5 before installing PE?
Edit: I've downdated the device to 12.5 RKLMIXM and have flased the PE recovery image, all okay. It's now installing the PE zip, so fingers crossed that's it.
Edit edit: I have PE on my device! Thank you at @xuser_0 for highlighting were I'd gone wrong.
The key @JohanGriman appears to be to ensure your device is not on the latest Miui but the latest 12.5 version.

Is there any instructions on how to install Magisk on this? I've tried to usual ways (via apk and flashing .zip thru adb sideload) but it fails to repack the boot image. Will a manual patch of the boot image and reflash work?
Edit: I've been able to directly patch the PE recovery image (as used in the installation process) using the Magisk apk on my device. Can I now flash this patched image to the device?
I don't want to try it as other instructions I've found talk about a vbmeta image that needs to be flashed too, and I don't know if that's necesary.... and I don't want to trash my device again!

Just flash it but it will break safetynet. To fix safetynet enable Zygisk, add google play services to deny list and install shamiko.
