magisk rooting guide - Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers

Hi all
I found a great guide for getting root access to the mi 8 however not sure it is working perfectly with an official global mi 8 with miui 10.0.3 .
Anyone could confirm this or check if the guide okay? it has no so many feedback this is the reason i am asking the great xda community as always Peace!

[Question] How to Bypass/Remove MI Account on Redmi 4A?

I had gone through all the topic one by one and read 70% of the Comments at MIUI forum, and even on this XDA-forum, I still didn't see any successful guide to bypass MI Account lock at redmi 4A. And also there is no ROM link for the Base version, that would probably be the one that came with the first build of redmi 4A which is just before MIUI 8.1.4 GS.
If anyone could make this guide, It would be a very useful for all redmi 4A users.
I know how to Unlock the phone, How to flash it and all basic things.. But, when you flash the phone and stuck at MI Account lock, there is really no way of Officially Unlocking it. So Please just don't post your stupid comments if it doesn't help!. Or else you can follow my thread if you have same problem. Since I am going to update the guide as soon as I can Bypass it..
So Im waiting for any Official/Unofficial way of unlocking it.
I had the same problem to fix it the only that you need is to install a custom rom...
first you need unlocked bootloader and install TWRP if you already have unlocked you can follow this link to download TWRP and install it https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767125635
latter on install one custom rom i recomend you crDroid

[TWRP] Meizu Pro 7 Series (p25 and x30)

HEY GUYS,​
AFTER A LOT OF SEARCHING OVER VARIOUS FORUMS, FINALLY I FOUND A DEVELOPED TWRP RECOVERY FOR BOTH MEIZU PRO 7S P25 AND MEIZU PRO 7 PLUS X3O VARIANT.
RIGHT NOW WE CAN INSTALL THE CUSTOM RECOVERY ON PRO 7 (P25) VARIANT ONLY. BECAUSE RECENTLY WE FOUND THE GUIDE TO UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER.
BUT FOR NOW THERE IS NO VERIFIED METHOD TO INSTALL THIS RECOVERIES ON PRO 7 (X30) BECAUSE OF THE LOCKED BOOTLOADER.
STILL I AM SHARING THE LINKS , BECAUSE SOMEONE MAY FIND A WAY TO INSTALL IT SUCCESSFULLY.
HERE ARE THE LINKS:-
MEIZU PRO 7S :-https://gitlab.com/HosteBin/yshalsager/raw/master/Meizu/pro7s/TWRP_pro7s-090818.img

Update 19 Dec:- The Guide to unlock Bootloader of Meizu Pro 7 is posted Now.

Oh, I get it, I'm watching just Meizu Pro 7 forum on 4pda.
It's interesting that someone put a screenshot with working supersu on this device on 4pda forum for this phone. There are no other details provided but maybe the guy will unveil them soon It would be nice if it's working on Global variant.
We tried it, i have a friend from the contributer of that post, well the thing is it really works. You can install super su on flyme 7.0.0.0G. There will be procedure posted soon, but the problem is that if you want to install supersu on latest global stable ie 7.1.0.0 then you cant because the basic need is stock root. And in latest stable you cant root so simply now, for it you have to register over official site. Well that's too lengthy.

Nice
Do you know if this supersu could work on Flyme 6.1.3.2G? For me, battery usage is better in this old ROM than in latest 7.x.
Yes. It works on Flyme 6 flawlessly. The flashfire apk also support Flyme 6, so with super su you can use flashfire to flash latest chinese flyme stable into your device. That means you can install A firmware on Global variant.
If you want guide right now then search meizu m6 4pda forum or else wait for few days we will post guide soon.

Can you share your guide to unlock bootloader for this device, also share your install log for the recovery so we can work on mount partition bugs. In order to fully test and develop a working TWRP we need more devices to install , therefore requesting you to share your guide to unlock bootloader for pro7 p25 variant. Thanks.!!!

Magisk on Redmi note8, possible ? (Trying to get ARCore Working)

Hello!
So as the title says ive got my self a note8 from xiaomi but ArCore is not officially supported, all my unity samples just crash on load. My friends Xiaomi 9 runs them fine. I read on Github Magisk modules may help me fix this and get AR working on this device, i wanted to take to XDA to ask for more help on this / discussion, would flashing allow my Redmi to use AR properly ? im currently on the chinese rom and im sure a flash to global might also fix the GPS and unlock a few other features but if AR works id be more motivated to do it.
Thank you

Has anyone installed Redmi 9 Lancelot Official Lineage OS rom on redmi 9 lava

right now i have redmi 9 lava (3/32) and seeing the new redmi 9 lancelot official rom i wonder if it will work on my phone without problems. Has anyone tried it?
I have the 4Gb RAM version and LOS 20 works fine although its using up to 2.8Gb RAM. Personally I wouldn't run Android 13 aka LOS 20 on a 3Gb RAM phone. I actually wish I got the 6Gb RAM version.

I currently have the pixel experience rom installed and it definitely runs much better than stock. You didn't encounter any problem with the installation, did you? Also if you have any problem I would like to hear it. Thank you very much my friend for the reply!
In addition, updates are done normally?
Yes there is weekly OTA updates. Also yes LOS 20 runs much better than stock, faster and uses less ram, on stock miui 13 Android 12 I couldn't even run two apps at the same time such as Outlook and Chrome. As for installation you need MIUI 13 Android 12, the latest stock rom, otherwise LOS 20 won't work, I believe it will bootloop. I just followed the instructions on LOS website, didn't have any problem.
Also I used the default LOS recovery instead of TWRP as TWRP isn't updated anymore and I wasn't sure if it will work. You need to unlock bootloader using Xiaomi app or a script from here Xda if you don't want to wait several days for the Xiaomi app unlock as there is a waiting timer, idk why Xiaomi did this.
you have me completely covered. I have done this process many times and know what to do, thanks for the advice anyway. You sure have the "lava" version right? Because you mentioned above that you wanted to buy the version with the 6gb ram which is only available in the Lancelot version and I would like to be sure

ok thank you again.
With a little research I had done, I believed that the LOS rom was not exactly designed for my phone but for another version (there are roms that say it's for the lava version and roms that say it's for the Lancelot version). I'll try to install it soon and hopefully I won't have any problems. Thank you very much

In cpuz under model it says Lineage_lancelot.
okay okay anyway thank you very much for your help
