I made a guide for KitKat on our device here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2780703
You'll find the answer in the bugs/issues part
I am not responsible for anything done wrong for you and your device. Sorry!!
You have two options to follow, the 1st one is long, may be difficult to follow. I recommend you to read option 1 and 2 both but to follow option 2
OPTION 1
Hello friend this is a short tutorial for those who have just bought the Beast Red Mi Note 3.
This guide is only for Redmi Note 3(Qualcomm Snapdragon 650 2GB/3GB version) users.
The Device's codename is kenzo. It also called Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro. On MIUI sites Its also mentioned as HMNote3Pro so don't get confused.
The below mentioned MiFlash-Tool is required in emergency. Installing Mi-FlashTool in PC also install all the Quallcomm and Xiaomi Drivers to make your device function with PC at any mode( recovery, fastboot or system mode) Make sure before installing MiFlash-beta setup, You have disabled Driver Signature Enforcement in your Windows PC. To know how to disable check on Microsoft sites for your particular OS.
Requirements
1. A PC with windows 7,8,8.1 or 10 32-bit or 64-bit with .NET Framework version 3.5 installed. Before you install Mi Flash. To download .NET framwork visit the microsoft website.
2.Download Xiaomi MiFlash-Beta(This beta version works good and also support 32-bit Windows OS) http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=at...2NGJkfDE0ODE4MTQxMTh8MTU5MjAzMDUwMXwyODE5Nzk=
3.TWRP Recoveries- download all these 3 recoveries
a. Alka TWRP http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=at...xMmZifDE0ODE4MTY5NzZ8MTU5MjAzMDUwMXwyODI3NzM= (for emergency backup and restore) (this recovery is most necessary to backup all the partition of our device. RN3 comes with all about 40 partitions, and their are many important files stored their. So at anytime you get any problem just restore. The recovery image file is compressed in a .zip file. Therefore, you may need to firstly extract it using Winzip on your PC or extract it using ES File Explorer on your phone. One more thing, this build is for Redmi Note 3 Qualcomm Snapdragon (Kenzo).
b. Cofface TWRP https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B5bSNUUrjm6JQjFhUEkzZXZ2bkk (zip password www.cofface.com)
c. Official TWRP https://dl.twrp.me/kenzo
If you want to flash custom Rom like Cyanogenmod, xiaomi.eu, Resurrection Remix etc. This tutorial will help you to use all those thing which can be done on our Beast .
:angel: first of all you guys get the Bootloader unlocking permission from en.miui.com/unlock/ (recommended) and always sign in the Mi Account with valid mobile number and e-mail which is used by you currently and can be accessed by you anytime. Goto setting in the phone and register for Mi account and login. Enable Find Device feature.
i have not checked ZC-X TWRP RECOVERY because i have seen some people getting problem from zcx, but now it is upgraded. So it can be universal for everything( like flashing any official/stock/custom rom(as cofface and official do), maybe it supports all partition backup( like alka do) and also it can be used to update or upgrade you MIUI based rom. Check it at your own risk.
3.USB DATA cable (the one that came with your device).
4. device battery charged at least 50%.
5. A good observer and patient most of patient.
I don't think about any other way to unlock bootloader. You can find them on other places but I don't find them easy than this.
So I am supposing that you guys using your phone with stock MIUI Rom that should be MIUI 7 or MIUI 8 with stock recovery and You got the permisssion official to unlock your beast .
So just unlock the bootloader by using MiUnlock tool from PC. Store all these tools in your PC for future process.
Now you have unlocked bootloader to check the status just boot your phone into fastboot mode by pressing volume down+power key when your device is off then use this fastboot command fastboot oem device-info to check the bootloader info if it says bootloader unlocked:true then you are ready to go. If you don't know how to setup adb-fastboot environment and driver check it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
Put unlocked bootloader phone in fastboot mode,connect device to PC using USB cable and check the bootloader status again to verify it is unlocked or not by using command fastboot oem device-info. Now copy(don't cut because you should have a backup plan for each process) all the recoveries ALKA TWRP, CoffaceTWRP and official TWRP recovery to the adb fastboot folder and rename alka twrp to alka.img,cofface twrp to cofface.img and official twrp to official.img. Please copy and rename one by one for don't getting confused. If you accidently rename cofface to alka then it will be not good to you after flashing. So take each step carefully.
(if you have managed environment variables on PC then you can use adb fastboot commands any where in PC, That is a good idea. So if you want to know how to set environment variables just comment here I will give you all the steps.)
Now just press continuously the Shift key and press RIGHT CLICK on the blank area of window.
An option menu will be showed click on open command prompt here.
A black backgrounded command shell will be opened.
Now type fastboot oem device-info and press enter key.
If it shows bootloader unlocked :true then proceed to the step 1 and if shows false then don't proceed unlock your bootloader which is shown above with this symbol :angel:.
Step 1:
A.First of all take backup of internal sd by copying all the folder and files in your PC's folder and name this folder to KenzoInternal you can use any name. And delete more files in internal to get atleast 5GB space.
B.You shuould have atleast 5GB space in your internel to back up your all device partition through ALKA TWRP.
C. copy all three recoverys(cofface.img,official.img and alka.img) in your phone's Internal SD directly or make a folder recovery and place there.
Now go,read and follow the instruction from below
Boot your phone in fastboot mode and connect with PC
open command prompt in adb-fastboot folder where you have copied all the recovery images(official.img,cofface.img and alka.img)
Type on command prompt:
fastboot flash recovery alka.img
it will be flased in atleast 10 seconds.
Now we have to go directly to recovery mode from fastboot mode not in system so care fully press volume up + power key at the same time in your REDMI NOTE 3 and when your device vibrate leave the power key but don't leave the volume up key until the recovery window get shown. If your device get booted to system not in recovery then maybe your flashed 'alka' will be replaced with stock recovery, and may be it get bootloop or maybe it will boot successfully but have some problems like Wi-Fi radio get disabled.
Read the above step again and do everything carefully.
Step 2:
[[ If on welcome screen the language shows in chinese or other, then simply swipe on first screen and touch on the 2nd column and 3rd row in menu and then touch on the icon(shows like earth or sphere) and choose English and then done. ]]
In recovery go to BACKUP and mark all the partition I said all the partitions (you can leave unmarked the DATA partition if you are not wanting to make backup of your own installed applications and their data. It will decrease the backup size and also the TIME) their may be 35+ partitions. And swipe to backup. Their are some partitions like system,efs(stores modem and radio and may be your IMEI information) etc have the sensitive data. So you are mostly recommended to mark all the partition except DATA(optional).
GREAT!!! wait until getting backup.
Step 3:
Now touch on Install menu in recovery and touch on Install Image that is always in the right below of the screen upto the swipe handle.
Now browse to the root of internal sd or the folder where you have copied all the recovery images(cofface.img,alka.img and official.img). And choose the cofface.img and swipe to install.
Now get back by touching on back arrow symbol on left bottom.
Step 4:
Touch on REBOOT menu in recovery and then touch on Reboot to recovery or to recovery.
Your RN3 will reboot again to recovery(which is now cofface).
[[ If on welcome the language shows in chinese or other then simply swipe on first screen and touch on the 2nd column and 3rd row in menu and then touch on the icon(shows like earth or sphere) and choose english and then done. ]]
Now touch on reboot and thenreboot to system.
If it shows that your recovery will be
If any query shows saying your phone is not rooted just touch on Do not Install
your phone will boot to MIUI system as it was. and it has a custom recovery(currently cofface).
if you want to root your device then download superSu.zip from https://download.chainfire.eu/921/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.65-20151226141550.zip and place it in your internal sd card of phone and then boot to recovery by pressing power key+volume up key on same time then go to install and choose to install for supersu_vx.xx.zip file and swipe to flash. Then get back and wipe cache and dalvik/ART cache or some times it also reboots automatically.
Kindly follow the on-screen instruction which shows on screen during installation.
NOTE: It may be bootloop or take too much time on first boot after installing superSu.
SuperSU app and all the applets(including busybox tools) also comes with superSU zip file. So no need to install it through PlayStore. However you can update from PlayStore.
You are strongly recommended to take the backup(whole partition backup taken by ALKA TWRP) and copy it to Your PC that is the life of your mobile. I know you can flash An official MIUI rom through PC using fastboot or EDL method but If you lost your EFS partition then You will lost your IMEI which is unique to each and every devices. In Qualcomm Snapdragon based phone It is hard to recover IMEI. I say hard not impossible. Their are many forum that give solution to this but It is highly recommended to have this backup copy to your PC. You can find your backup in the /sdcard/TWRP/Backup/ OR open Internal SD then go to TWRP folder then open BACKUP and then a folder like 5exxxye. just copy this folder to your PC and keep it safe or you can save it to other places also that will be more good and also show your smartness.
How to install custom ROM or OSs in RN3Snapdragon?? Hmm come here
NOTE: Always flash all custom ROM(Except MIUI) through official TWRP. But when you have made your mood to install custom ROM you have to flash official twrp through either with TWRP(currently cofface in your device) or with fastboot command using same method that I have explained above when we have flashed coffaceTWRP in your device or use this commandfastboot flash recovery official.img
I have tested many ROMs but I found most stable Resuurection Remix(based on Marshmallow) and CyanogenMod 13(based on Marshmallow) yet. Everything is working fine except VoLTE. Their are many available ROms that supports VoLTE based on Nougat(Android 7.0 or 7.1) but have some bugs with camera. (The Cyanogenmod 14.1 officially is also declared but in experimental mode(nightly)(not recommended for you.))
I am going to show you the steps to flash custom ROMs without getting into any problem but you are recommended to follow each steps carefully. Thanks
Suppose you have downloaded official released Cyanogenmod 13 for your phone from here https://download.cyanogenmod.org/get/jenkins/174586/cm-13.0-20160816-SNAPSHOT-ZNH5YAO0FI-kenzo.zip (It is recommended to download it to your PC for backup plan). Having a copy of this backup in your PC makes you free to delete it from internal SD to free the space when you are in a Stable Rom or in a ROM you loved and want to be always with it.
then place it to your internal SD. now follow these steps... Check out your device battery is 50+ % charged.
Step 1:
Reboot to recovery. Go to install and choose install image. Now choose official.img(officialTWRP) and then swipe to flash/install it.
Step 2:
Now reboot again to recovery by choosing REBOOT in recovery menu and then RECOVERY
your phone will be rebooted to official TWRP recovery which is not supported by MIUI. I mean official recovery doesn't have the ability to patch the boot image., that is why I said it is not supported.
Step 3:
Now go to wipe/format menu in TWRP recovery(I am supposing you have the back up with alka twrp before and have copied it to your PC also.). Choose 'advanced wipe' and Mark these partition System,Data,Cache,Dalvik/ART cache. Do not choose Internal SD, Micro SD or USB OTG. and swipe to wipe.
Step 4:
After wiping now you have not any Operating System installed. Just touch INSTALL in RECOVERY MENU and choose the ROM ZIP file which is cm-13.0-20160816-SNAPSHOT-ZNH5YAO0FI-kenzo.zip (for example). Always use the ROM that is build for Your Device. Since above zip file's name shows it is for kenzo that is your RedmiNote3 Quallcomm Snapdragon.(just check the underlined word in zip file.)
and swipe to flash and wait no matter how much time it takes. Just wait don't try to reboot.
if you want to flash google apps(GApps) like play store and play store services you have to install it also after flashing the ROM zip file. to download GoogleApps go to opengapps.org and choose arm64 from architecture menu and choose android version for this ROM(Cyanogenmod 13) choose 6.0. choose which package you want I recommend you to use pico it will only install play store and services and you can also install other google apps through Play Store later.
If you want all google apps then choose 'aroma' it has a built-in file explorer to choose particular app in recovery.
Step 5:
After installing cyanogenmod and GApps wipe cache and Dalvik/ART cache again. Do not wipe anything else.
Now its time to reboot to the system.
first time it will take atleast 2 to 10 mins (depends on the open GApps package type) for optimization of apps.
After that go and enjoy..
Any problem comment below.
To revert back to MIUI again.
just copy the backup folder you have taken before, to the folder /sdcard/TWRP/BACKUP/ and reboot to recovery(currently official).
and choose to install image in recovery menu and then choose alka.img and then reboot to recovery again(using recovery menu).
You will again reboot to recovery (currently ALKA).
In alka recovery menu choose to WIPE and wipe these partition SYSTEM,DATA,CACHE,DALVIK/ART CACHE.
then choose RESTORE from recovery menu and select your backup folder and it will show the list of all the partition you have made backup. Mark all and swipe to restore.
Note:sometimes it shows an error during restore that it can't restore firmware partition. If it show this error kindly choose to restore again and mark all partition except firmware partition then swipe to restore.
After restoring backup(MIUI) do not reboot just. choose to install image and install cofface.img again because this recovery works with MIUI.(Cofface twrp paches boot image automatically which is required to make custom recoveries to work with MIUI ROMs ) after installing cofface.img. Reboot to recovery again and then reboot to system.
Now wait if it takes too much time (may be 15 to 20 mins).
Now you are come back to your MIUI ROM.
MUST READ:
1.Always check your bootloader status after and before flashing any ROMs(boot to fastboot mode connect USB to PC and type the command in command window fastboot oem device-info.
2.If any time it shows bootloader unlocked: false then use Mi Unlock tool to unlock the bootloader again. You have to use same user-name/mobile number/e-mail and password to sign-in the UnlockTool which you have sihned in your phone.
3.No matter how many ROM you have flashed or which OS you currently using. MiUnlock-tools always recognises your phone.
4. During unlocking the phone your PC must have an internet connection from other sources.
5.You can't use your phone's wi-fi hotspot to unlock its bootloader because it should be in fastboot mode.
6.Always make back up and store them in safe place.

OPTION 2
Now you can use zcx recovery which is Universal to flash custom/stock/miui ROM without any problem. So unlock your bootloader and flash ZC-X twrp recovery, and follow the instruction comes with it, you don't need to follow the long procedure given above. You should use it with Marshmallow based MIUI ROM too which comes with by default DATA partition encryption. It can automatically decrypt DATA partition. So go for it here https://www.google.co.in/url?sa=t&r...DwoAzQEtfzPxp4Shw&sig2=SOZcDMBpgO_teBIK6lNnhw
Thanks any problem comment below. Enjoy

Seriously dude , zcx supports all partition backup like alka twrp+6.0 encryption problem is also solved ,inbuilt boot image patcher + miui ota support
This guide just made procedure to flash ROMs more hectic and uneasy and long process.
I Recommend user to just flash zcx twrp and do all the stuff you want,flash any roms including miui.

Then must use cofface because MIUI based custom rom like
Xiaomi.eu etc. Are also need boot image patching..but 1st
Take full nandroid backup through alka and copy it to pc
Before flashing it. After flashing MIUI based custom rom use
Check your bootloader status because some of them locks your Bootloader again..

1st of all the bootloader status(lock/unlock) get changed
From rom to rom. So everytime if you wanna flash something
Like any rom(official/stock/custom) or any recovery you need to check your bootloader status 1st. I have told in post that if u wanna flash Miui rom or wanna update it,just flash through cofface recovery. And one thing to remember, never downgrade miui version through cofface (for example Miui8 to miui7). But if u want to upgrade(for ex. Miui7 to miui8) or want to update(ex.- miui 8.0.1 to miui 8.1.1 or something like this) then you can use cofface twrp recovery and also zcx twrp recovery. Before flashing make sure you have full backup through alka twrp. You should read the post again.

It will work if your miui backup from official twrp contains backup of firmware partition. Since official twrp doesn't supports all partition backup. So you need to flash a miui based fastboot rom then unlock bootloader again if it get locked and then flash alka to take all partition backup then save this backup to pc. And after that check the post again for what you want.

you are right but zcx doesn't support all about 40 partitions. Maybe it comes with all features that we get in all other twrp recoveries like cofface,alka etc. but for whole partitions backup alka is necessary.
But it is true that ZCX supports important partitions that are more important while ALKA twrp supports whole with important and not important
This post is not so long or uneasy. It is for noobies to understand. This is not for PROs. Thank you!

okk bro I am wrong. I am also using it and thanks for the info. I will add it in the tutorial. Thanks
No problem bro, i know you have made guide for new comers( i wont call them noobies) & it's a good one.
But i am just in favor of "if we can do things on easiest way,no need to choose harder ones"
I will try to suggest if some steps need to be included and what other things which we can short doing the flashing procedures.

Thats the good idea bro actually i haven't any knowledge about zcx recovery till the post was submitted. And I have seen somewhere that it comes with few bugs but I think now it gets updated.

Checking for TZ version TZ.BF.4.0.1-77307
assert failed: xiaomi.verify_trustzone("TZ.BF.4.0.1-77307") == "1"
Updater process ended with ERROR: 7
which prevents me to flash any of the ROMs. Please help me out....
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU VOID YOUR WARRANTY NOT THAT THERE IS ONE ANYMORE SINCE THIS DEVICE IS OLD BUT STILL I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU LOSE YOUR FILES OR BRICK YOUR DEVICE
the links are at the bottom
step 1. download kingoroot
step 2. root your samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 with kingoroot and uncheck install recommended apps it might tell you root was not successful but most likely it was go to your app drawer and see if you have a superuser app
step 3. if you see the superuser app root has most likely succeeded
step 4. from the playstore download rom manager from clockwork mod
step 5. once rom manager from clockwork mod is installed open it
step 6. click on install recovery it will ask you what device you have put your device there
step 7 . install the touch screen version of clockwork mod this will most likely lead to it installing twrp because it glitches
step 8. once it has installed twrp boot into recovery by holding the power button and the volume down button
step 9. if twrp is properly installed it will go into twrp
step 10. reboot into android and download super su from the website to flash onto your device
step 11. dont flash it yet go into the kingoroot superuser app and go into the settings and click unroot and say yes to unroot now it will reboot
step 12. once you also uninstall the kingoroot rooting app reboot into twrp and flash the supersu zip
step 13. reboot
step 14. download the unified cyanogenmod 13 for the samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 it also works for the samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0 .
Step 15. Download gapps from open gapps select android 6.0 arm pico and then download that
step 16. Reboot into recovery and make a backup of system and boot and data (if you want to go back to the stock os and keep your data)
Step 17. Once the backup is complete go to install and click on the cyanogenmod file . And flash that . DO NOT REBOOT YET INTO CYANOGENMOD
Step 18. Once you flash that flash the gapps arm pico file DON’T BOOT YET
step 19. boot cyanogenmod
Step 20 . Cyanogenmod will setup gapps and super su for you
Step 21. Setup cyanogenmod
Step 22. If it says unfortunately setup wizard has stopped unexpectedly and the google play frame work and the play store does then keep going in this instructions
Step 23 . Shut down and go into recovery
Step 24 go into advanced wipe and wipe everything except internal storage and your sd card (if you have one)
Step 25. Flash cyanogenmod again and flash the gapps file again and the super su file then reboot
Step 26. If that still gives you the same says unfortunately setup wizard has stopped unexpectedly and the google play frame work and the play store does then go back to step 23 again until it works .

why so complicated??
before you start:
download latest common-twrp as zip from android-andi http://andi34.github.io/recoveries_tab2.html
download the rom that you want to install.
download gapps package if needed http://opengapps.org/ or gapps from deltadroid https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/app-minimal-gapps-gapps-lp-20150107-1-t2997368
download latest supersu.zip from https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133 (you only need it for omnirom or aosp)
put all these downloaded files on your ext. sd.
step 1. download kingroot.apk https://kingroot.net/ and root the tab.
step 2. download twrp manager from playstore and install latest official twrp version (2.8.5.0) with it.
step 3. update your current twrp with the common-twrp from android-andi that you have on your sd.
step 4. reboot back into your updated twrp and wipe cache, dalvik/art, system and format data. confirm format with yes.
step 5. reboot into recovery twice. now you can install the rom, gapps and supersu (only needed on omnirom and aosp). very important: flash the gapps right after the rom file without any reboot.
step 6. if install ready wipe dalvik and reboot system (first boot need some time)
its really complicated because kingoroot contains malicious code for ads that pop up and it installs random things thats why u gotta flash super su

Maybe you should change the name of thread to "how I installed cm13"? And include without pc. Much easier with computer.
Pc way,
1. Flash twrp with odin (plenty of guides here on xda for odin)
2. Reboot to recovery after flash.
3. Wipe/format data,cache, davik and reboot recovery
4. Install rom/gapps (no need for su, cm13 prerooted). Reboot system and enjoy

no need for unroot and install supersu on stock rom, because of format data. it will delete your stock system

A simple guide for users which will help them to install TWRP on their S8 after Oreo Update.
This guide is only for Exynos models.
Requirement -
1. PC/Laptop
2. Original Samsung USB Type-C Cable
3. Prince Comsy Odin (Because some users reported on this thread that normal Odin doesn't work)
Instructions -
1. Backup your important data from internal storage before proceeding towards the installation.
2. Now go to Settings - About Phone - Software Information - Tap On Build Number 7 Times.
3. Now come back to Settings Home and Open Developer Options. Check OEM Unlock is turned ON.
4. Power off device and boot into download mode.
5. Connect your device to the PC/Laptop.
6. Now Open Prince Comsy Odin and click on the AP option.
7. Choose the TWRP .tar file and press the START button.
8. Now after Odin says PASS, press the VOLUME UP, BIXBY KEY, and POWER BUTTON at the same time until device boots into TWRP recovery.
9. Now allow the modifications and go to WIPE option.
10. Choose FORMAT DATA - Type yes - ENTER.
11. Just Reboot Once Into Recovery Once.
12. Now Choose INSTALL option and install Magisk or SuperSU.
13. Done!

I have installed but shows me 0 mb on internal storage cant mount data
OP you should add this isn't for US models or be model specific
I didn't think this method was for Snapdragon w/o a different os/engineer software?
Snapdragon rooting is really this straight forward?

You'll need to FORMAT DATA to remove encryption and then flash magisk or supersu

Be sure to "FORMAT" data, not WIPE Data. WHen you choose the option to FORMAT Data in TWRP you will have to type in the word YES to confirm that you want to do that after making youir selction. Once the wipe is finished, flash the No Verity Scrtipt file you can find here: https://build.nethunter.com/android-tools/no-verity-opt-encrypt/and then reboot.
BEFORE YOU REBOOT after flashing TWRP - If you have been "in jail" after flashing oreo and you had to wait to wait 7 days before you could flash TWRP - be sure to flash the RMM State Fix found here immediately after flashing TWRP - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75360965&postcount=22

Did you FORMAT the data after installing TWRP?
Yes, I did it but with the same results on magisk installation....
I am also having an issue similar. I have flashed the OREO update (CRAP) and after formatting data in TWRP and then the No-Verity Script. This then shows the Internal storage. I can flash Magisk but when i next boot into TWRP it will show 0mb again?
I have done this now about 6 times. Its ok to start but then it reverts back to not being able to read internal storage?
Anyone know why?
Thanks
Im experiencing the same issue too.
0mb data and twrp recovery doesnt hold settings.
Flashed latest twrp from link in this thread and directly formatted data.
Twrp nandroid backup fails on cannot mount data.

Because it need to be modify in ramdisk. Flash custom Rom or a kernel with proper fixes
I was trying to restore to stock firmware my vns-l31...
After many hours and many attempts i was able to update to an older rom, but it was giving me a lot of errrors (like the fingerprint magically disappeared after a while and so on...).
And everytime i witched it on it gave me the error "your device has failed verification and may not work properly" in red.
So I've decided to try again.
But now I am once again stuck.
Phone keeps bootloping.
It can go into fastboot, i have every driver possible installed, and I've tried a bunch of stock roms, each one giving me different errors.
Phone is unlocked (Bootloader unlocked, FRP unlock), but i really don't know what to do now.
Any help would be much appreciated.
P.s.
The last rom i had working was a VNS-L31C40B368
I tried to upgrade to a C432B414 and downgrade to a C432B130, neither working.
I had previously installed EliteROM 7.7 and EliteKernel by HassanMirza.
When the phone was working it didn't show the proper version installed but it said Elite ROM v7.7.
While using P9 lite Toolkit today, i saw that custom.bin and oeminfo were non existent.
I tried flashing this rom C432B414 but it has no CUST.img
The c432B130 has the cust.img but i wont flash.
pls send help
Also I am from Italy, if that's of any help.
dload method won't work with the updates i've donwloaded
Phone won't boot in recovery, only eRecovery. I've tried installing twrp, but only elite twrp worked and it was password locked...

OK siamo a cavallo !!
Leggi bene prima di fare...
..oops devo scrivere in inglese ...
Let's start with your latest working OS (VNS-L31C40B368 (as i see into a CUST lists, it's a kind of czeck republic/weird vodafone firmware version)).
Are you ready ?
From your PC download those three files..
1 - update.zip
2 - update_data_full_public.zip
3 - update_full_VNS-L11_tef_normal.zip
Rename file 2 from update_data_full_public TO update_data_public.
Rename file 3 from update_full_VNS-L11_tef_normal TO update_all_hw.
Let file 1 the same name...
Download THIS SCRIPT (HuRUpdater0.4zip file).
Create a folder and rename it VNSL31C40B368.
Copy all 4 file you downloaded into the folder you created (VNSL31C40B386)
If you want keep TWRP (now recommended), copy the .img file of the recovery into that folder, otherwise proceed with instruction...
Copy your VNSL31C40B368 folder into the SD card of the phone..
You should have something like THIS.
Reboot into recovery and format DATA.
Reboot again recovery and wipe everything except SD.
Go in main menu of twrp, hit install, find out your folder (VNSL31C40B368), choose HuRUpdater0.4.zip file and let it flash.
You may have to follow some instructions on screen if needed, flashing could take many minutes, keep calm...
When rebooting, device could go in a bootloop !!!
If after 20 minutes it hadn't booted, press vol+ and power till it reboot into recovery.
Make a factory reset and everything should be good. Good luck... :fingers-crossed:
I would recommend to read at least a couple of times before do... take your time...
P.S.: All this may not work because as you wrote oeminfo file are missed.
We will look then for another way, maybe making a rebrand into european nobrand firmware....

Update
Data partition was in ext4, i tried setting it to ext4 and it gave a bunch of errors.
I rebooted and it showed that the data partition was now in f2fs. So i set it to ext4 and formatted data.
After rebooting i tried flashing the OS using your guide and it all went smootly with no errors.
But now the phone keeps bootlooping even after factory reset.

holding vol + and power button.
Now tap install, find your L31C432B417 folder, select HuRUpdater04.zip file
and let it flash...
Dude you should be ok, take your time... your device should reboot into the system correctly,

Whenever i try to install the software via HuRupdater it says
mountencrypt: failed to mount /data: Success
After that the phone booted but it had a screen that said "Insert password to decrypt data"
Any password was correct but it said data was corrupted.
Even after factory reset no luck...

As far as i know, this is only be happened because you forgot to remove security
before attempt changes...

the fingerprints/password/pattern then re-update to android 7....
