Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 and LineageOS - LineageOS News & Discussion

I am interested in buying a phone with official bootloader unlocker for LineageOS and have after hours of research found that Xiaomi seems to have this including no loss of warranty when rooted but I am unsure if this is true.
So I mailed to Xiaomi Customer Support to verify this but got the usual no reply-reply, I want to buy the phone in Norway and there is no support in Norway.
1) Is there an official bootloader unlocker for Xiaomi Redmi Note 7?
2) Does rooting affect warranty?

Hello to all "senior members".
after having taken more finely the instructions for formatting the DATA partition, provided by darhma, I formatted the SYSTEM and VENDOR partitions "normally" and
launched the installation of the custom ROM.
Usually using my old smartphones, I took RESURRECTION REMIX again, and it works!
It does not loop during the first boot and the installation continued on ANDROID
Thank you very much @darhma

Redmi 3s, MIUI 8, Full encryption

Hello,
I will receive soon (I hope) a Redmi 3S 3/32 international version (with B20).
My son's plan, after checking all is OK, is to do OTA to MIUI 8.0.3.0 stable and full encrypt the fresh device (before installing some apps).
No root, no unlock.
Did someone managed to do it ? are there any things to consider before ? any warnings ?
I have read on others forum, that some had difficulties, but some had root, some had unlocked, some had MIUI 7, some had lots of data... so not clear for me if it's hassle free on a fresh miui 8.0.3.
thank you.

Move all of your data to sdcard, rom with android 8.1 or higher usually encrypted their data partititon after flashed, so you need to use sd card(as long your sd card is not encrypted and not formatted as internal) to flash from twrp or by sideload your rom via computer.
Keep backup your phone before flash, stay safe

device name changed from redmi k20 to mi9t

hey guys i own a redmi k20 and it was stuck in bootloop so i flashed the rom through miflash but after that my phones name changed from redmi k20 to mi9t did i messed something up or it doesnt matter
Same Problem
I also did the exact same thing and now I am worried that will I be able to come back into its original form. I tried every single ROM available for Redmi K20 through all the steps but nothing happened. It would be very grateful if someone tells us what to do.
Please Help
If you flashed any Global ROM, that's the reason your device is now recognized as "Xiaomi Mi 9T".
Beware to NOT lock your bootloader... or your phone will be hard-bricked (because you have a china "Redmi K20" device).
I've had the exact same thing but in the other way (i had it 9t and got redmi k20), it doest matter if everything works as for me i had no problems with it
Here's some things that may help
Make sure that you have unlocked bootloader and install twrp
Backup everything in twrp.
Install xiaomi.eu rom (it will transform to k20).
And voilĂ ... And trust me you won't need the stock rom ?

nope..just stuck at recovery screen
Problem solved
Could you say how you solved it?
Just an info: For android 11 (and devices that ship with android 10): Just boot into TWRP, don't flash it. There is no TWRP (official or unofficial) that's working without problems with android 10 and above.

Maybe it applies for Android 11
But for Mi 9T, MIUI 12, A10 it works flawlessly.
Please what exactly does not work for you with TWRP 3.4.0.x on Mi 9T, MIUI 12, QFJEUXM 12.0.3?
I have used official and unofficial OF, and TWRP from 3.3 to 3.4.0.2, from MIUI 10, A9 and then MIUI 11/12 A10 (eea, now I switched to Xiaomi.eu, weekly but still A10)
The only thing that does not work is if you have dual apps (I use dual WA), that when you enter pin it gets access to storage for user 0 ('normal' user) but not for user 999 - which means that it cannot backup data for my second WhatsApp
Please be aware that Mi 9T was originally released with A9 and the layout of partitions did not change when it upgraded to MIUI 11/12, A10 - hence we don't have an issue with TWRP like on the phones that were already released with A10

I own the same device and that's why I clearly posted:
Devices that ship with android 10.
As you said that's not the case for the Xiaomi Mi 9T, it was released with android 9 (MIUI 10.x).
TWRP recovery never had an official update to android 10.
And full backup/restore (data, system, vendor) weren't possible for me at all.

For Mi 9T there is official TWRP for A10 (MIUI 11 and 12):
https://dl.twrp.me/davinci
Again, because the phone was not initially designed and released by A10.
For that reason 3.4.0.0 is the official and valid TWRP for Mi 9T, both for A9 and A10 (we'll see how about A11 when Xiaomi officialy releases, currently there is only A11 beta from Xiaomi.eu)
