[Q] How To Root Xiaomi Note 4G - Redmi Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys!
I am new to rooting and i have some questions and hope to find some answers.
1) Can Xiaomi Note 4G be Rooted?
- I have google and checked out you tube but i dont find anything that work for Xiaomi Note 4G
2) This is a little crazy and took me some guts to ask, Are we able to Install IOS on Xiaomi 4G after it has been root?
- I think everthing is possible and its only if we have found a way to do it.
Let me thank you in advance for reading my this. If you do know how to root Xiaomi4 4G i will really be thankful and appreciate if you can send me the link for the root file and instruction for rooting.
Thank you.

note 3g and 4g are 2 different phones right ?

Yes, they are very different devices soc related.
If you are on latest miui v6,the only way to root is by flashing developer ROM version, a weekly rock stable version who brings root natively.
You can find that version on download section of en.miui.com look for you specific device.

Hi,
I just got a Redmi Note 4G through a friend in China, do I need to root it before able to sign in to Google account? Seems I am having trouble signing in. Apparently my friend told me China has officially blocked Google so is this the reason why I am not able to sign in because the phone has to go through Xiaomi server in China? I am using the phone in Singapore.
Thanks for your tips in advance!

I have a Global version, but installed China Miui v6, and able to login to Google, after installing gapps.

above link is for xiaomi redmi note 3G
doesnt work for 4G variant

Option not given
I have MIUI 6.6.1 and root permission not given what i do.

Install philz recovery!
Okay so here is the simple way that worked for me..
1.Download Philz recovery for Redmi note 4G(dior) zip. It is on XDa. Just Google "Philz recovery for Redmi Note 4G) it is the first link. Download the 'miuies' named file.
2. Open the updater app in your phone and in options select 'choose update package' and select the zip you downloaded.
3. The phone will go to recovery mode and install philz recovery.
4. Now again open updater app and select 'reboot to recovery.'
5. Now you will be on philz recovery. In the list of options there is an option to root the device. Tap on it and confirm it. Bingo! Rooted phone and you get Philz recovery as well which is a part of clockworkmod.
Hope this helps.
Also. As far as iOS install is concerned it will be way more complicated and not really worth it. For the look you can try the iOs theme in the theme store.

Just search for Google play store apk and install it.
Make sure in security you allow unknown sources.

The google play store apk won't just install like most apps, it will just crash or stop working, this problem has been mention in other threads for other samsung phones from china and since this forum is international and most users are using the US, UK or international version phone, a custom rom may be hard to get by, you will get a better chance by searching through some of the chinese community forum.
good luck.
Hey, I'm thinking about buying the G9006v too. Will I be able to root and install a custom firmware?
I saw another post where someone who had a G900i was able to install g900f firmware. I am unclear as to the G900 versions and their compatabilities with other versions' roms

from what i found there is already a root for g9006v, in the chinese forum my chinese is kinda bad so couldnt much of it. I can give u the links if u want.
To anyone who is curious about checking out a Chinese forum for this phone:
http://bbs.gfan.com/forum-1443-1.html
You're required to register to see pictures and post replies to see links. Most of the ROOT methods look pretty much the same as what is going on here so far, so I guess they all trip knox. (I haven't figured out how important or unimportant that is ...)
I tried the following post:
http://bbs.gfan.com/android-7340315-1-1.html
and was able to use Odin to flash CWM and then get SuperSU. SuperSu said it disabled Knox, but when I checked (Vol-+Home+Pwr) knox has been tripped. Oh well.
I also got really thrown off by one part of the above instructions, to enter CWM after you flash it with Odin you need to press Vol++Home+Pwr not volume down.

[Q] Note 4 Chinese Variant Custom RoMs

I am looking for custom roms for the SM-N9108v which is similar to the N9109,N9100, N9106 models. All of which are Chinese variants.
Has anyone here enough Chinese language skill to have had much success finding RoMs that might be suitable?
Thanks in advance.
SM-N9108V
Hi there. Where did you buy the SM-N9108V from? What are they going for? I am looking for one but want to install a rom with play store on it. Will it work?

I skim over 52Samsung.com quite often as there's lots of work going on over there. However, you donate to become a member (which gives access to download links) so even if there was something available I'd only be able to link to something you can't get, unless you're in China and have also donated.

I take it you're in China since you're asking about the specific China Mobile carrier locked, single SIM model number.
Most obvious place to go is your local China Mobile store. Or jd.com and Amazon.cn also have them. Should be ¥5,199 more or less.
You don't need a custom ROM with Play Store pre-installed. Just use the root guides on here and flash Gapps yourself - it's pretty simple. And I hope you have a VPN!

1. Kinghu, thank you for the link. I will look into it and donations for it when work slows down a bit. Right now, I'm semi/happily making do with the Apex launcher for the next week, but I am itching to trial a custom RoM. I envy multi lingual users a bit. Must be great feeling to have access to the Chinese sites and to know which you can trust.
2. I know that I'll be staying China Mobile for at least a year - hence I selected N9108v - it is good advice that people make certain to get the right one. I am now using 4G for the first time after not having it on my HK purchased N9005.
3. Any more sites I can investigate - particularly like the MUIU RoM for Note3.
Cheers.
I think it'll be a while before full custom ROMs like MIUI appear just because the phone is so new.
My last Note was the dual SIM Note 2 (7102) and there were only really modded TouchWiz (stock) ROMs. Some were quite left-field!
Might be different though if you've a single SIM phone. I guess we all just wait and see.

Waouh ! The 32go variant
Same specs as N9100 except rom space
No need custom rom.
Option 1
You could try flashing N9100 HK variant via Odin. It has Google play
Please backup before (in case of problem you can roll back to your original rom)
Be aware : it could break your device
Option 2
install custom recovery (cwmr or twpr) then flash latest gapps package (search in xda)
Root is not needed for having play store

Yeah I have tried the gapps several times. I have twpr on it now. I am building a android test bed for working on roms. Good to know about it being the same as the n9100. I will see what I come up with. Another thing that is wierd is it will not update so when they finally release the andriod 5 for it I will have to do something. From what I saw the other day it has already bean leaked.

Hey, just wanted to say, I have the SM-N9108v. I rooted using Chainfire's CF-Auto root, worked great. Installed CWM recovery, worked great. I use X-note rom and it's great but for a few minor glitches. About to redo the entire thing using TWRP recovery and try another rom. The only thing you have to watch out for is the radio. China Mobile 4G LTE is a propietary frequency and if your radio changes you won't be able to use the 4G signal. China Unicomm uses the same regular frequencies as some north american carriers.
Just passing on what I've found out through trial and error.

Seems that you are the right person to get me out of my troubles with this phone. I cannot have proper 3G functionality (i am not mentioning 4G since for sure it will not work outside china). How can i load other modem-radio file on this phone and see if i can fix it?

Dude my son is with my wife. I will get her to send me a photo if possible. I have been a member of the XDA developer Community for years since the HTC Evo 4G. Trust me when I say my son's phone has the update to marshmallow it has. I did the update for him myself it has Android 6.0.1. The service provided for his phone is T-Mobile. Remember Alcatel sells this phone through AT&T Cricket line so I'm quite sure they have a real serious reason to update this model especially since it is now sold by a nationwide service provider.

So the update.zip gets downloaded fine, but since my device is encrypted, it winds up unable to be seen by the automatic updater or in recovery mode as the various drives are not visible.
Any ideas (other than a factory reset) on how to solve this?

Idol 3 Update MTP issues
I updated my phone earlier today and now it won't connect to my Windows 10 computer thru the MTP option. I even with thru the Developer and selected/unselected/reselected it and my laptop still won't see it. All I see is a file with drivers. I haven't rooted, and won't, my phone. Any suggestions out there on how to fix this? BTW when updating to Android 6.0.1 it made me format my SD card, so I lost all my music but thought it wasn't a big deal since I'd upload it back to my phone, but now I can't.

Well, I'm sorry to say that it's impossible to work, since the variant degaslte (which contains connectivity, 4G aka LTE) has another processor, so it will not work, you will not be able to install it, the processor of the T230 variant is the Marvell PXA1088, while the T235 (LTE VERSION) has the processor exynos. That is why the development of roms takes a long time for this variant

On March-22-2017,
you said, "Good luck, I will try to build some, I installed linux".
Hey,
I got some questions , T230nu stock , I have been readin all the threads on twrp and root threads for t230nu pa1, as this stock rom is only good for vids, so i am totally confused how to best load y8ur latest creation 4.4.4 too make this paperweight usable
So ya i am new to droid but really these threads are totally miffed, like whats the deals with twrp? From what i can tell i have to load 2.7.8.4 or under then i can upgrade to 3.1.1.1degaswifi, or do i have to unlock bootloader first, these dang threads just do not explain properly, i have wasted we3k read7ng them, i swear i feel l am dealing with the government circlejrkm one thread says root first ,when i get to end it reveals if you already have twrp, so i goto twrp and read and those threads lead back if you have root and/or prior twrp install ! what gives even the twrp main website is jqcked with the prior install gunk.
Oh and i just love the thread that starts with " I am going too assume you have abd bootloader unlocked allready" REALLY
So can you maybe point me to a proper guide so i can get this paperweight too qctually work because it is my only inet access rite know and the stock rom is horrible

FYI, paperweight in Android terms, means, it is a hard bricked device. The Tab 4 don't have a locked bootloader. Any TWRP for SM-T230 / NU, will work to install my Android 4.4.4 ROM, https://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-4/development/sm-t230-nu-unofficial-cm-11-based-t3648887.
Secretwolf,
Thanks for the fast reply, for me any device thats basically useless is a paperweight, but i"ll keep in mind that ya"ll use the term meaning for bricked.
So i am going togo buddies today and try to load the lastest twrp, d3gaswifi1100.img . I just cant afford major issues as i dont have easy access to pc to fix it. Seems you and others have been using the eur version is that because the usa doesnt work ?As i am in usa and planned on using that version, i take the eur with incase,
Well gotta give up today as just tryin to type with thing is horr7ble , and i have todo a restore once a week just so the browser will load inet. This keyboard is horrid

Please search. Each is easily done. You should search. Research. Read some more. Research. And then read some more. Learn how to do it. Learn how to fix things if you break it.

yes, alot of member here already root their phone.
also for the vanced youtube you don't really need to root your phone to use it, since vanced has the non-root version of it
The 8 Pro is very customizable on XDA. Unlock bootloader and Root are easy enough...

So I'll be able to completely update my phone to whatever version is out right now out the box and be able to root and install adaway and vanced or will I need to make sure I'm on a certain build number?
I know I can easily root and grab the two apps I want but I want to make sure I'm able to keep the phone close to up to date to the build numbers oneplus is dropping

correct.
I didn't root on my current Op8p device, but I used to daily use my Op5 and root the phone while still up to date to the latest beta build.
each time after you flash the latest build which you can do from the OTA just do :
1. manually re-flash the twrp
2. flash magisk
and that's it!
modifying Oneplus devices is so easy compared to any other brand
edit : my suggestion is just unlock the bootloader when the phone first arrive, skip anything on the first setup and do the proper one after you unlock the bootloader.
that's what I did, even though I didn't root my phone

I wouldn't do that!
1. TWRP doesn't work with open beta builds, because of Android 11.
2. It's much easier to install new update with system updater (local upgrade). Don't reboot if finished. Than you go to magisk and: install --> install inactive slot (after ota). Reboot your phone and you will have the new update with root.

But thanks for the info!

I have both of these.
1. Unlock bootloader.
2. Root with patched boot.img
3. Upstate to canary to pass safety net
4. Install Renovate ice
5. Install xXx
Both apps installed, all mods you could need, safety net passes, everything works.
