UPDATE 27 DEC2016
-I received SYSTEM UPDATED NOTIFICATION ON 27 DEC2016 FOR MIUI8 on 5.1.1 (1.2GB), while my device was bootunlocked and ROOTED.
- after updating, twrp + root was gone
- so i flashed twrp IDO and flash supersu + lazyflasher and rebooted my device
---------------------
Recently I did something wild by buying Redmi3. For a die hard Sony Xperia fan over last many years it was something wild for me.
Immediately I felt the boundaries within MIUI8 where
- no app can be disabled
- no application dock / all app icons landing on launcher
- MIUI mediocre music with no equalizers
- bundled google and other duplicate apps (Miui galary + google photos) which and cannot be removed
however the features i enjoyed the most in MIUI8 particularly
- Dual APPs
- detailed dual sim control and renaming status bar icons/shape
- detailed control of memory optimization in developer options
- better memory optimization ( atleast for facebook and messenger which take gb/s of place to run )
i started my investigation immediately about rooting the Xiaomi Redmi devices running on MIUI8 (android5x) and the short and sweet version says
1. Unlocking Bootloader
2. flashing TWRP
3. flashing SuperSU
4. Flashing LazyFlasher
BOOTING in to SYSTEM.
however the above missing all the bleeding saga of work around you have to perform in order to reach the point where u actually install twrp.
UNLOCKING REDMI3 (REDMI DEVICES)
prerequisite~~~
MAKE BACKUP OF YOUR DEVICE!!!!!!!!!!!!
DO IT ON YOUR OWN RISK
I AM SHARING MY OWN EXPERIENCE HERE!
ONLY ONE DEVICE SHOULD BE LINKED WITH ONE MI ACCOUNT ( what i have read ov
1. once you start using REDMI, you must create MIUI account in your device- verified by your Mobile Sim Career / valid email and having legitimate details about you. the more valid details you give to your MI Account, the chances of unlocking bootloader are more. I even had to connect it with my only facebook account!
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B31ivZaiUAGMWTYxX3ZXLUxrb2c
2. for REDMI3 download the DEVELOPER ROM from http://en.miui.com/download-298.html and put it in the mobile's SD card or internal memory.
on Redmi3 goto UPDATER APP (in folder TOOLS) and click the 3 dots top/right and click CHOOSE UPDATE PACKAGE and install the DEVELOPER GLOBAL or DEVELOPER CHINESE ROM MIUI8 over stableROM
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B31ivZaiUAGMa3lPUWVnWnVXdXc
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B31ivZaiUAGMNXBCLWdnWHpYbXc
it may give you warning like its older version and all data will be wiped. Proceed anyways. the device will BOOT an install DEVELOPER ROM. This process took 1 hour and i had Developer ROM in my REDMI3. after booting i logged in to my MI ACCOUNT. (DATA WIFI enabled)
3. NOW~~~~ goto http://en.miui.com/unlock/ and fill the form , asking your MI account details and VALID reason why you want to unlock your redmi device. Once done you will be asked to wait for SMS by XIAOMI. it may take 10 to 12 days. at this point if anything about you account is fake or you change your SIM CARD/number in you REDMI3 / Redmi. your bootloader request will be denied. I recieved my SMS on day5
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B31ivZaiUAGMVnMzb3RKSEtTdkU
3. once you get the sms, download MIunlock TOOL from
http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=at...kMjVifDE0Nzk5MDA2OTJ8NTQyOTQ4MzM5fDQxODQyOQ==
4. now here is the Tricky part! which i found after so many FAIL TO UNLOCK device errors is that you must be in CHINA/ TAIWAN / SINGAPORE inorder to run you MIUNLOCK TOOL. for this purpose i used https://www.tunnelbear.com/ application and location SINGAPORE
5. unzip miunlock tool and run the exe file. LOGIN using your MI ACCOUNT

}
account will be validated for unlocking permission
since you recieved SMS, MIUNLOCK will ask you to CONNECT YOUR DEVICE FASTBOOT MODE / remember redmi goes to fastboot mode when POWER and volume down keys pressed and hold simultaneously for few second with jerk.
if everything goes right , the SMS + SINGAPORE LOCATION by TunnelBear; Miunlock tool will finally UNLOCK your device (WHEW)!!!!!!!!
INSTALLING TWRP / SUPERSU / LAZYFLASHER (ROOTING REDMI)
YOU HAVE NOW UNLOCKED device RUNNING ON global or chinese DEVELOPER ROM MIUI8, (you can check the unlock status from about device section)
now
1. Download the stable MIUI8 from http://en.miui.com/download-298.html, and flash it with UPDATER TOOL the way you installed developer rom (as explained above)
2. once stable rom is flashed, boot your device and started using it by logging in to MI Account, google accounts etc. (again whole process takes 1 hr)
3. download TWRP IDO https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B31ivZaiUAGMVjZ6ekU4TEVveTA
4. download lazy flasher and supersu (as attached) and put it in the sdcard or internal memory!
5. switch-off device (REDMI3) and boot it in FASTBOOT mode by holding VOLdown+power keys.
FLASH TWRP by adb commands. please see this video! its EXTREMELY HELPFUL!! follow it by heart!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_P7Qd3kpAI
6. once you boot twrp as system readonly! make BACKUP in sdcard or internal memory!
7. mount system! and flash both zipfiles in sequence (A) superSU & (B) LAZYFLASHER ( lazyflasher disables dm-varity and prevent you from bootloops)
8. REBOOT in to SYSTEM! the first boot may take some time!
CONGRATULATIONS you have ROOTED REDMI3 / XIAOMI
warning
1. you will no receive any updates since system is modified by twrp hence you have to FLASH any updates in fastboot mode by downloading fastboot version of MIUI in future using MIFLASH TOOL / or XDA FLASHER
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B31ivZaiUAGMdFBSYWhoMnJzakk
---any future flashing will void rooting and twrp, so you have to install twrp/supersu/lazyflasher after every update.
2. I skipped the EDL mode part! XIAOMI devices are highly unstable and you can brick them VERY EASLY!!!!
3. I skipped the part where you can replace twrp.img with kernel.img by naming it kernel.img in FASTBOOT ROM version using 7-zip. again you can brick your device very easly!
HOWEVER
4. if your boot locking request has been denied by MIUI team,,,, EDL is your LAST OPTION
First of all, you're in wrong forum. This kind of thread should be on General section.
Second,
Unlocking process could be done in any region (I don't receive my SMS verification but my request is accepted). I'm in Indonesia and I don't use VPN and unlocking works. :good:

If I remember: Xiaomi phones in Asia (excluding China) are mostly released in India, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, and Taiwan.
That's why the unlocking process always fails on your case.

i have read, people from other countries and locations cannot unlock Xiaomi
This worked for me. The twrp rooting part.
Flashed twrp, left it read only, then flashed the newest superSU (2.79) and then lazy flasher zip.
All good here! And I already had dm-verity issues and had to flash stock rom again. (30 minutes after I got the phone. Didn't read well enough first time around. Lol)
Thanks! :good:
Whoa, Darth is here! xD

Hi op, i tap on the link and it brings me to the rom download page but it was for redmi 3 prime and i'm using redmi 3 (snapdragon version) Can this guide still work on my phone? or i just need to simply download dev rom for my phone's version? And i heard that Global rom doesn't allow for root activation so which rom should i dowload? i prefer global though

1) All Redmi 3 variants are Snapdragon, with difference in RAM, eMMC, and fingerprint sensor availability.
2) Who knows?
3) You can just flash SuperSU or Magisk.

Now i'm stuck at flashing twrp part,
1. "adb reboot bootoader" the result was "bootloader is disabled"
so i entered into fastboot manually, plug in the cable and check with "fastboot devices" and it was connected.
2. i ran "fastboot flash recovery (and the file here)" it failed "data transfer failure (or something like that)<unknown>"
and i'm sure my bootloader is unlocked correctly. do i need the fastboot mode enabled in the developer option?

**Intro**
Just a simple HOW TO to centralize everything I found on Russian, Italian, meizufans and xda forums.
M2 Mini has good hardware but very poor software, going to CM is a relief !
**Disclaimer**
I'm not responsible for bricked device.
You may loose warranty.
You need basic knowledge of using adb tools and rooting phones.
**Boot in Recovery and Fastboot**
Boot in recovery : power on holding Volume Up and Power
Boot in fastboot mode : power on holding Volume Down and Power
**Rooting**
King Root works well http://www.kingroot.net
**ADB Drivers**
Google drivers won't recognize M2 Mini, you have to edit the inf file.
You have to activate USB Debugging in the Developer Options for ADB to work.
1) Download drivers at: http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
2) Edit android_winusb.inf
3) Go to [Google.NTamd64] section and add this to the end of the section :
;MEIZU M2
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0E8D&PID_201D&MI_01
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_2A45&PID_0C02&MI_01
4) Reboot Windows without driver signature enforcement
HOW TO: http://www.howtogeek.com/167723/how...8.1-so-that-you-can-install-unsigned-drivers/
5) Install modified driver
HOW TO : http://developer.android.com/tools/extras/oem-usb.html
**Unlock bootloader**
You have to be on *Flyme OS 4.5.4i* for bootloader unlocking to work.
DOWNLOAD LINK : https://forum.meizufans.eu/topic/3905/flyme-os-4-5-4-stable-m2
1) You need busybox on the phone
DOWNLOAD LINK : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox&hl=en
2) You have to download the unlock_bootloader.sh
DOWNLOAD LINK: http://www37.zippyshare.com/v/fvm5edpr/file.html
2) Copy file to sdcard via MTP or ADB
adb push unlock_bootloader.sh /sdcard
3) Execute the file as root from ADB
adb shell
su
(accept warning on the phone)
sh /sdcard/unlock_bootloader.sh
4) Unlock
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem unlock
(wait for the phone to display confirmation)
"Volume Up" to accept
(wait for unlocking)
5) Reboot your phone into Flyme OS
It is very important to restart your phone and wait for Flyme OS to boot up completely before flashing a custom recovery.
**Custom recovery (TWRP)**
If you didn't boot into Flyme OS at the previous step, you might be stuck in boot loop in recovery and need to go back to the stock recovery (Uploaded on XDA by @murtaza1326)

DOWNLOAD LINK: https://github.com/AlexLartsev19/cgapps/releases/download/20160423/cgapps-arm-5.1.1-201604241754.zip
3) Boot into recovery
Hold "Volume Up" and Power
4) Copy everything to sdcard via MTP
5) Full wipe
Go to Wipe > Advanced wipe > check Dalvik, System, Cache, Data > Wipe
6) Flash CM and Gapps

Phone cannot see SIM
Yep, ive been using CM for few months, everything was good. But today i had to wipe /data, and couldn't. Recovery says, that it cannot mount /data. I thinks, that's because of encryption. I played around, tried wipe system from Settings, but it didn't work too. I and did
wipe data
in the phone's terminal. Saw lots of errors from apps, of course. Then rebooted and, oh my, phone was asking me for password to unencrypt the storage. Huh.
I enetered password, loaded into system, and, everything is pretty cool (ive got clean firmware, system apps only), except two things:
Phone is still encrypted, hence, i cant change firmware or do anything else
Second, and most terrible, is that phone can't see SIM card. No SIM at all. I changed SIM's position, but it does not work, yeah. Actually, SD card is working, i can see it from file manager, read/write files. Wi-Fi is working too.
I have backups for all partitions, except Internal Storage and /data. /data was backuped using Titanium Backup, files from Internal Storge moved to SD card. So, i do not care about files, i just want my phone up and running. Any help?

How to flash cm13 with fp scanner version (both official/unofficial)
Requirements:
- TWRP Alka (Download here, just extract the .img and flash it via your current TWRP )
1. BACKUP!BACKUP!BACKUP!!
Before Flashing anything to your device, we need to backup our full ROM. This can be done by using the TWRP Alka i gave you. steps are in the following:
- Boot Into TWRP
- Go to Backup
- check all the partitions you have (see below)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
- backup all and wait until its finished (approx 5-10 mins)
For safety purpose store the backup in sdcard or have a copy of it in your PC
2. FLASHING
CAUTION! THIS WILL RELOCK YOUR BOOTLOADER ( Irrespective of if you unlocked officially or unofficially in stock ROM it will get locked and flashing this ROM won't brick your phone or cause bootloops) TWRP will still continue to function normally with all its functions
okay now that we have already backed up all our partitions, we can flash the rom.
- go back to TWRP Main screen (suggesting that you didnt reboot after backing up) and chose Wipe
- Wipe system, Dalvik, Cache, Data
- after its done, go back to TWRP main screen.
- Install the ROM
- Install GAPPS (6.0.1 arm64)
- Reboot.
First boot takes around 5 minutes and it'll initially welcome you in the setup screen.
3. RE-UNLOCKING
Now you know that your Bootloader got relocked. But that's fine, even at a LOCKED state, your TWRP is still functioning as it should be (flashing, restoring, backup, wipe).
So its up to you if you want to unlock or not. Both options are fine and wont affect you in any way.
To unlock your bootloader you have to:
- Boot into Fastboot
- Reunlock Using MiUnlockTool
- reboot.
4. RESTORING to MIUI lollipop or older cm13 builds
if you encounter problems with the rom (stuffs doesnt work, something FC, not a daily use worthy) you can easily go back to where you were before flashing this build.
- Boot into TWRP
- Tap Restore
- check all the partitions and restore
- wait until it finished and reboot.
you should now be in your previous rom (whether its MIUI or AOSP or CM) and the bootloader should've stayed unlock.

Thanks for the tuto. Can we flash miui roms without flashing patched boot.img or else with this recovery ?
the next updates of CM lock bootloader or one-time?

I don't know about that but you can't flash any miui lollipop rom after you flash this cm13 and lock your bootloader. You will first have to restore to cm13(older) or aosp with unlocked bootloader and only then you can flash miui.
Or you can also unlock bootloader on the new rom and the flash miui. Correct me if I'm wrong about the last part, Santosh.
Sorry for the messed up (the ss isnt twrp alka, but another recovery) in twrp Alka the emmc backup is aboot and aboot.bak (it has different names for other partitions, but if you backup them all it wont have any problems) ill edit the post rightaway with the proper twrp

I flashed mokee ROM (which I know will lock my bootloader) but before that I backup everything using the TWRP alka. And as expected , upon restoring the backup everything is working as they were working before. Bootloader is still unlocked.
the right screenshots are added on the other thread, sorry for the ****ed up
Got understand all steps except 4. How to reunlock the bootloader with mi flash tool. I before unlock bootloader via mi flash tool by flashing full 7.1.8 rom with replace emcc file and then give fastboot command. So now how to reunlock it.

Hello guys,
This is my first guide and it is focused on people who just bought their Redmi Note 3 (KENZO/KATE) and having problems with officially unlocking their bootloader. (stuck @ 50% like me)
If you don't want to wait on stock MiUi until you can officially unlock your bootloader (because you need to wait additional ~2 weeks after you received permission from Xiaomi until their servers updated) or you want that extra security layer with locked bootloader this guide is made for you!
Since official LineageOS 14.1 just released, i thought some of you guys are interested in this awesome, easy and safe method.
To save you time searching hours and hours through this forum i made this quick summery.
Downloads :
MiUi 8 Global Developer ROM 6.11.3: KENZO or KATE
ZCX TWRP (direct downloadlink: click here)
Mi Flash 6.8.30
Latest firmware (choose correct device)
[ROM][OFFICIAL][7.1.1][kenzo] LineageOS 14.1 by The_strix
Open GApps - ARM64 - Android 7.1
Instructions : (follow them carefully!)
Extract MiUi 8 Global Developer ROM and replace recovery.img (in images folder) with ZCX TWRP's recovery.img
Flash using Mi Flash (in EDL mode) and check clean_all
After finished flashing process unplug and press [volume up]+[power] until Mi logo shows up then release buttons and it boots to TWRP (change TWRP language from chinese to english: click here)
Reboot to system (if you get prompt: "Disable stock recovery replace now" > just swipe to allow disable)
Boot to MIUI and complete initial setup (important step - don't skip! first boot will take around 10 minutes)
-----------------------------------------------
Shutdown device and boot to TWRP again
(optinal) Backup every partition and safe this backup on an external device
Wipe > Advanced Wipe > check Dalvik / ART Cache, System, Data, Internal Storage, Cache > Swipe to Wipe
Flash Latest firmware, LineageOS 14.1 and GApps (ARM64, Android 7.1)
Reboot to system and you're DONE!!
updated method (works with newest MIUI version) :
There is a new updated method by kuan improved by @N.G. and @razr_96. Thanks for mentioning.
Advantages:
no need to download full MIUI fastboot rom
much faster method, only takes seconds to flash (instead of 4 minutes and you don't have to complete initial MIUI setup which also takes around 5 minutes)
this method is better if you want to stay on MIUI and just want to root
you can stay on your current MIUI version (even 7.1.19 which is currently the latest) and don't have to wipe your data
Disadvantages:
this doesn't clean everything, i would recommend to clean everything if you want to install a custom rom
you have to download a file i can not verify
Instructions : (follow them carefully!)
(optinal) Backup your current MIUI data (Settings > Additional settings > Backup & reset > Local backups > Back up) and copy it to an external media
Download and extract: Kenzo or Kate
(optinal) Replace included ZCX TWRP recovery.img (in images folder) with your preferred TWRP recovery.img
Flash using Mi Flash 20160401 (in EDL mode) and check flash all except data and storage (not clean_all like in the method mentioned above)
BE AWARE: This MiFlash version is different to the MiFlash version mentioned above! This version does only support 64 bit systems and you need atleast Windows 7!
After finished flashing process unplug and press [volume up]+[power] until Mi logo shows up then release buttons and it boots to TWRP (change TWRP language from chinese to english: click here)
Reboot to system

Troubleshooting :
[APP][ROOT][7.1.1]QuickSettings Flashlight fix for all nougat roms
If something goes wrong, start over again and follow my guide step by step.
This guide only works with MiUi 8 Global Developer ROM 6.11.3 or lower.
Put MIUI 8 Global Developer ROM in "C:\ROM" - MiFlash tends to have problems if there are any spaces in folder names.
If you flashed something wrong and have no simcard signal anymore or no IMEI look here for help: EFS Recovery Guide
If you didn't remove your passcode before you did a backuprestore using TWRP:
TWRP > Advanced > Filemanager > /data/system > delete locksettings.db
Issues with locked bootloader :
none
(advanced technique) Higher security with locked bootloader:
Thanks @LeoYL !
A little addition: If you want a even higher level of security, which is nobody except you can flash packages in recovery, you can create a recovery with limited functions and forced signature verification, with your own keys embedded in that recovery.
This is just like the original status of nearly all Android devices when they are shipped: only signed OTA update packages can be applied via recovery. Normally, the packages are signed by OEMs; however, you can become the "OEM" by creating your own private key, which is used during package signing.
Just follow these guides to create a recovery with your own keys. I use CM 13.0 recovery, since it only has basic recovery features, including installing a ZIP file, factory reset, and it has mandatory ZIP signature verification.
http://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/31765.html
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62796459&postcount=2
The reason why I don't use TWRP is that it allows update packages with any signature. Although you can enforce signature verification, it can also be switched off in TWRP settings.
Now you get a recovery which only accepts ZIP packages that are signed with your own private key. The only downside is you need to sign every package you want to flash each time. But this also means that if a stranger picks your lost phone up, they can't tamper your phone's OS. If the "reset protection" feature works with locked bootloader on our Redmi Note 3, the only distance between our phones' security and Google devices' is edl mode and encryption.
Wanna try other custom roms?
Just follow this guide and you can flash every other nougat customrom as well like:
[ROM]AOSIP 5.5 for Redmi Note 3(Kenzo)[OFFICIAL BUILDS]
[ROM][Nightlies][android-7.1.1_r6]ResurrectionRemix 5.8.0[OFFICIAL][VoLTE]
[ROM][OFFICIAL][Weekly][7.1.1_R13][Slim 7 For Kenzo]
[ROM] ► [7.1.1 ► N4F26M] ► [OTA][OMS][Goodix] ► Nitrogen OS

This method also works with Kenzo, obviously using the Kenzo miui rom and firmware instead.

The guide you linked is not working for me, thats why i made this guide which works 100%.
I tried this with the Global developer ROM for my kenzo.
When I try to get into TWRP, the Mi logo flashes but nothing else happens.
When I let the MIUI ROM start up and try to get into the recovery again,
it only shows me to connect my device to the Mi PC Manager.
What am I doing wrong?

Did you follow my instructions correctly?
- replaced recovery.img with ZCX TWRP recovery.img - check?
- EDL mode - check?
- remove usb cable after flash and press volume up+power button until mi logo shows up and then release buttons - check?
- are you sure you have kenzo version? did you download rom for kenzo? - check?
!! caution: the rom linked in this guide is only for kate version!!
thank you ! I've been trying the official route for 6 weeks, getting absolutely nowhere (even though I finally do have unlock permission).
this method worked like a charm, finally I'm off MIUI and running LineageOS

1. I guess, do I have to replace only the recovery.img or more? If only recovery.img, then yes!
2. Yes, otherwise MiFlash would give me an error instead of flashing the ROM
3. Yes, but it appears only for an blink of an eye and then disappears again, the phone screen then stays dark
4. Yes, the newest one. Maybe that's the problem?

Yes, that's the problem! This method only works until version 6.11.3.
You have to flash 6.11.3 (or earlier) to get TWRP and then you can flash what you want.
Good luck!
Excellent :good:
To boot into EDL
If you are lost with chinese language in TWRP, look at the first screenshot
And for Gapps take 64bits
Hi, I just got this ROM but when I plug the device in my computer it keeps connecting/disconnecting rapidly. Did I do something wrong?
Very helpful, but i would like to suggest people to use miunlocktool from windows 7-32 bit operating system. Miunlocktool perfectly works in windows 7 & don't stuck at 50%. Before unlock process, just "add oem unlocking device" from MIUI developer setting then start unlocking process..... Its really works for me & also others who followed these steps.

You don't think i've/we've tried everything? Official unlock works for you? Great! But it doesn't work for everyone... trust me.
Can we please stop to suggest to unlock officially with different guides? This guide is for people who don't want to or can't unlock officially.

I also said that million times to other people who suggest me different types of official method. When i success after trying couple of methods then i realized it is possible to unlock kate. I'm not saying that your post is not helpful, i saw many post like that, mostly in whirlpool forum. BTW, good luck with your tips :good:
Sure it is possible to unlock Kate officially but you have to wait for Xiaomi to get permission and wait for their servers to syncronize.
You have to wait up to 1 month (depending on your location and other things) until their servers confirms that you have permission to unlock (unable to verify thing). All these guides outside are working but it's a matter of time until they start working. That's why they didn't work for you in first place. :good:
hi @khajiit
They say not enough storage when I want to flash it. Could you please help me with this?

You are using a really old MiFlash version, try updating to the version mentioned in this guide.
And rename your folder "Redmi note 3 pro" to "Redmi.note.3.pro" or "Redmi_note_3_pro".
MiFlash tends to have problem with spaces.

Official TWRP App
Mar 11, 2017
Official TWRP App
The official TWRP app is the first and only first-party app developed by Team Win for TWRP. Please bear with us as we work to fix any bugs and build out the features. The initial version of the app does not support flashing on the Pixel due to the Pixel's A/B partition layout. In addition, the app may not support finding and flashing images from external storage locations. We are working hard to improve these items and bring you more new features.
Download Links:
We recommend downloading the app from the Play Store.
If you do not have Play Store access, you may download the Official TWRP App here: https://dl.twrp.me/twrpapp/
How do I use the app?
When you first open the app, you will be greeted by a few options. First, you will need to agree not to hold us responsible for anything that happens to your device while using the app. You may also grant the app root permissions. The app will work without root, but some functionality like image flashing will be disabled. Lastly, you can opt into enabling InsightCore (more on this feature later).
Once you have passed this initial screen, you will be greeted with the app home screen where you can choose TWRP FLASH or NETWORK STATISTICS (more on the network statistics later). On the TWRP FLASH screen you will need to select a device. Once you have selected a device, the app will periodically check for new TWRP versions for the device that you have selected. The default interval is once per day, but you can tap on the settings icon in the upper-right to change the interval or disable the update check entirely.
If you enabled root access, you will see options for selecting an image and buttons for flashing the selected image to boot or recovery. Note that you should flash TWRP images to recovery. The boot image flashing is for flashing full boot images (not just kernel zImages) and should not be used for flashing TWRP.
Update 15/3/2017
TWRP 3.1.0-1 MM build released.
Current status: BETA
Features:
MTP working
ADB working
SEANDROID warning fix
TWRP and Kernel built from latest source
Factory Image flashing(see below)
NTFS support
F2FS support >> To be added
Twrp app support
New feature available in TWRP v3 is system image backup and restore and factory image flashing (see TWRP changelog for details)
Basically this means factory system images from the official firmware can now be flashed with TWRP.
This feature can be found under INSTALL >> INSTALL IMAGE >> select image to flash >> select partition.
You flash this at your own risk. Please ensure you have the stock ROM to hand downloaded from SAMMOBILE in case of problems. This will trip the knox counter.
Instructions:
Flash with ODIN 3.12.7 in the AP slot.
Put your device in DOWNLOAD mode.
Uncheck Auto reboot.
Load the respective file below into the AP slot and hit start.
After flashing and ODIN reports PASS immediately reboot to recovery by holding POWER + HOME + VOL DOWN.
As soon as the screen goes blank change to VOL UP whilst still holding POWER + HOME.
You should now see TWRP recovery.
NOTE: ON SOME ANDROID 5.1.1/6.0 DEVICES IT IS NECESSARY TO GO TO:
Settings -> Developer Options -> OEM unlocking
AND ENABLE OEM UNLOCK FIRST OR YOU MAY ENCOUNTER 'BLOCKED BY FRP LOCK' WHEN FLASHING.
DOWNLOAD:
twrp_3.1.0-1_j327p_14317
To Root:
Flash the latest SuperSU release with TWRP:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133/
To disable forced encryption and mount internal storage:
(Note this MUST be flashed after SuperSU if you intend to root)
1. Boot to Twrp
2. Format Data partition using FORMAT DATA button under Wipe options.
(Note: This will wipe the internal storage)
3. Check DATA is mountable.
4. Install SuperSU (if root is required)
5. Install boot image patch below.
6. Reboot

Don't want to screw it up since I don't have original firmware to flash back to it.
PS I seen in the thread talk of a link to where you can buy a copy of the firmware for some of these could you PM me that link please?

There's no way the patch did that. You must have wiped the system partition in twrp.

TWRP is an open-source, community project. A custom recovery is used for installing custom software on your device. This custom software can include smaller modifications like rooting your device or even replacing the firmware of the device with a completely custom “ROM” like LineageOS or OmniROM.

Installation
Read this before attempting to proceed with this guide.
Make sure you've backed up your personal data and have Samsung USB drivers installed.
Samsung implemented something call RMM Lock since 2017.
@corsicanu and @BlackMesa123 found out about this and gave us insight into what's happening.
This feature is meant as extra security to prevent theft.
As of latest update from Samsung, the RMM is reimplemented as KG Lock, known as KnoxGuard Lock.
However this new implementation made it more friendly and simple for devs.
You will need to update to latest Android 10 firmware with May 2020 security patch
AP Version:M305FDDU5CTF2
CSC VERSION: M305FODM5CTF2
Find the firmware over here https://samfw.com/
After flashing, boot back into Android and go to Developer Options by tapping Build Number under Software Information seven times.
Go into Developer options and enable OEM unlock.
It will ask for PIN/PASSWORD enter and device will reboot and wipe everything, unlocking the bootloader.
After rebooting back into Android you should find that it says "Bootloader already unlocked" under OEM Unlock
Switch off device.
Press Volume+ & Volume- key simultaneously and plug in USB CABLE connected to your computer.
There will be a warning screen. Press Volume+ to continue to Odin Download Mode
Observe the screen, there will be a flag saying "KG STATE: checking..." and "OEM LOCK: OFF"
If this is there for some time that means your bootloader accepts unofficial images. Thanks to @corsicanu for this insight.
Proceed to flash TWRP.
Open up Odin Downloader and uncheck Auto Reboot.
Select downloaded recovery.tar in AP field
Connect device and then click start.
Once done, press Volume- and Power button for 7 seconds to reboot, IMMEDIATELY PRESS VOLUME + AND PWR BUTTON SIMULTANEOUSLY TO BOOT INTO TWRP.
Thanks a lot to @Akhil99 for helping me figure out xD

nice, i just bought it, I can test new versions if you want.
maybe we need to apply those "dm-verity" stuff right after flashing recovery for twrp to stick after boot?

Tried installing TWRP ...unable to boot in to recovery mode

TWRP is an open source, community project. A custom recovery is used for installing custom software on your device. This custom software can include smaller modifications like rooting your device or even replacing the firmware of the device with a completely custom “ROM” like LineageOS or OmniROM.
Note: This recovery is un-tested I cannot assure if works or not. Please proceed at your own. I am not responsible for any damage caused to your device nor xda-developers. If you are unaware how stuffs work please search on google:fingers-crossed:

Yep it is!
Nonneed to type commands to unlock oem.

No need Samsung bootloader are easy to unlock just make sure it isn't RMM locked. However it will simply wipe your data so make sure you have a backup

Here's an important note for those you got stock recovery instead of TWRP
--> Make sure auto-reboot is disabled in Odin
--> You will have to reboot into TWRP for the first time after flashing it [/url]
No more thanks :laugh: custom ROM's coming!

So this process of twrp is highly unsafe. Please mention possible solutions in your thread.
When you flash custom binary on your phone(i. E: twrp and root) Samsung automatically trigger it even after flashing RRM bypass file, so it unregister the device thats why sim errors strats evoking after doing this all.
To solve this i flashed stock firmware (how big and slow is that?) ruined whole night and now no sim Error(sim changed restart your phone) this is possibly CSC error. But still my over the air updates not working its showing device is modified.
So please do all this at risk and thread owner please give possible solution to this before giving customs roms or GSI stuff.
