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][Nightlies][android-7.1.1_r6]ResurrectionRemix 5.8.0[OFFICIAL][VoLTE]
[ROM][OFFICIAL][Weekly][7.1.1_R13][Slim 7 For Kenzo]

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.

Are you sure you have a "KATE" device not "KENZO"?
Follow my guide carefully and try again. It works 100%!

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?
Spoiler: not enough

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.

my saga of ROOTING XIAOMI REDMI 3 / unlocking bootloader redmi 3 on MIUI8

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.

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
Congrats on having your (new) device rooted. Hope you could enjoy the phone...

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?

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
Boot image patch

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

DC Unlocker is the only way to go as Huawei stopped releasing bootloader unlock codes since July 22, 2018.
I installed the Resurrection Remix and Lineage rom on my P10+ (VKY L29) device and both got me the same problem:
When i boot (the boot is successful), Google starts the first configuration. It asks me the language and the visual properties and then i press "next". The screen remains on "Just a second..." for about forever.
I tried format data before and after, tried to install several Treble roms... Everything took me to the same problem.
I tried also to re-install Gapps, but this took me to another problem: the Google First Configuration is totally black.
What should i do?

I tried rebooting about 10 times and he always did the same.
Fortunately I figured out how to resolve this hell:
The Google first configuration setup checks the integrity of the ramdisk Partition. I had a custom recovery so obviously the check was not satisfied.
The solution is to flash the stock recovery ramdisk partition (in my case i download The Official update of Huawei p10 Plus and extracted only the ramdisk image).
When i finished the configuration I completed every setup and then I reinstalled the custom recovery again.

If you have properly read the instructions in OpenKirin website, it was clearly stated there that all these ROMs must be installed wirh stock recovery to avoid other issues.

True, I've read the disclaimer, but if someone, like me, used to install ROMs with the same warning without any problem (like an AOSP rom on my previous phone, which I installed having the TWRP), maybe he/she would think that there is not so much to worry about.
However, I noticed that there isn't a real "guide" on internet about a workaround of the "Just a sec" problem, so I wrote that message also for who needs a help and does not know about the partition check.
I found a bug on the "display" menu.
When i select a theme (light, dark, or the black switch), the system theme doesn't change at all. Tried to reboot, clear cache and data of SystemUI, nothing changed.
I bypassed this theme issue with Substratum. Didn't get any bug/problem with Substratum.

If you use a normal Huawei EMUI system, there is a special treatment which use a special SuperSu zip file.
Also, you can use a Magisk version, always optimized for Huawei. I found the zip variant in a thread in the P10+ section.
If you have the Treble ROM, which is the main topic of the thread, I did this:
Ensured that there were no setups to do;
Re-flashed TWRP;
Installed the normal Magisk zip from TWRP.
Because is not a EMUI system anymore, you can easily install every mod or patch you wish.
Personal note: I tried install SuperSu with the zip, but the app said "binary occupied". Since it did like that before, with the EMUI system, I gave up and I installed Magisk.
Now it works like a charm.

I use the FromFutureRom version that is in the thread I linked before. I think is made especially for Huawei P10/P10+
My data partition is still encrypted.
In order to decrypt data you should format the so called "user data", which is the combination of /data and /sdcard. Don't have to say that you will lose everything on your internal archive, so be sure to backup everything. The external SD card will NOT be affected.
In the TWRP you can to this on the menu "format" -> "format data" -> write "yes" and format everything.

You are absolutely right, but I said that you can install TWRP or any custom rom AFTER the Treble Rom installation. I am now on Resurrection Remix Treble rom, with a TWRP recovery installed after the rom flash and everything is fine since the first boot.

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

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]

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.

No matter what i do its still giving me error 7 in LEX727

Hello All
Its a never used LEX 727. Decided to flash a custom rom. Installed latest TWRP, but when i go to flash the rom got error 7.
Tried with diffrent roms but still error 7.
Then updated firmware to 30S by @codeworkx from here and again tried different roms but am still getting the error.
Following the suggestions given by various posters, I have tried doing full wipes, rebooting to recovery, using the ALL IN ONE tool but nothing is working.
I've also tried many older versions of TWRP as well as roms but nothing, the error is still there.
Any more suggestions on how to fix this? Thank you.
This is a typical error when TWRP is old or does not fit the model.
First, stay at 20s firmware:

You have to keep an eye on this:
- LEX720 (ZL1_CN)
- LEX722 (ZL0_CN)
- LEX727 (ZL1_NA)
Error 7 says the ROM’s updater script says the phone model of your phone is incompatible. A quick search for LineageOS give me this compatible on:

Make sure you have the latest TWRP installed for the X727:
Download TWRP for zl1
Download TWRP Open Recovery for zl1
eu.dl.twrp.me
Importand: If LineageOS aks to install it's own recovery, don't do it.
Important:
Install recovery, then reboot directly into recovery and install the rom. Original Firmware will revert back to stock recovery while boot! The you have to start over again.
Hello @Neppomuk_
Thanks.
1- I installed the 20S firmware
2- Installed the latest TWRP version 3.6.2_9-0-zl1 , and, rebooted to recovery.
3- Downloaded both the latest official LOS as well as the unofficial one by the poster whose link you have posted above. First tried installing the official rom and it gave error 1. Then tried flashing the unofficial one and same error. i.e.: "E1001: failed to update system image", Error 1.
4- I also tried installing the Mokee rom and it is also giving the same error. I downloaded the rom from their official site here
4- I am attaching screenshots of the errors. The first one is from the lineage "unoffical" after the "offical" had failed to install. The second one is from the failed Mokee rom.

Hopefully this is progress.
Error 1 is corrupted boot. You have the flash the stock boot.img with bootloader. I own a x720 so I can not provide you my one. It is possible to extract it from stock rom.
Check if you can find one here:

Actually i have had that error before while experimenting, so i'm afraid there has been no progress.
Are you asking to flash the stock boot image? And then what? Will appreciate if you outline the steps.
@Neppomuk_
1- Extracted stock boot image from the file you provided. Flashed it to boot successfully. Rebooted to recovery.
2- Went through the process of flashing the rom again. Still error 1.
OK, the E1001 from your screenshots is interesting. System image is (marked as) encrypted.
Do Following from twrp, all steps without reboot:
wipe/advanced wipe, tick 'Dalvilk/Art', 'Cache', 'Data' and 'System'
then go wipe/format data, confirm with yes, now the encryptiono (state) should be gone.
Now reboot straight back into recovery and flash the, this was mokee rom?, again.

Did it. Still error 1.
The first picture is LOS. The second one is Mokee.
Let's try following:
In TWRP go to Advanced, select File Manager, select the System folder from the list and the push the checkmark on the bottom right corner. No push the chmod 755 button the give full access to system partition.
Try to install custom rom.
A second try:
Go to wipe / Advanced wipe
select the system partition
now select 'repair or change file system' and then 'repair file system'.
Try to install custom rom.
I had problems with the 2nd try on some devices they do not allow repair of system partition.
Did the 1st option. Still error 1.
Did the 2nd option and the process was aborted or failed with error 4.
Did the 1st option. Still error 1.
Did the 2nd option and the process was aborted or failed with error 4.
Did you had any problem to flash TWRP on the device earlier?
With error 4 we have a second option:
In TWRP go to Wipe / Advance Wipe, select 'System' partition and select 'Repair or Change File System'.
Select 'Change File System', select EXT2 and proceed.
Then do the same to go back to EXT4.
Do the same with the Data partition.
Now, you have to transfer the custom rom to your phone again. But do it in bootloader mode this time.
OK, something special:
The LineageOS ROM has it's own boot.img inside. You can use this one as well, flash it in bootloader.

Not sure how to do this. As far as i know one can only flash images in boot loader mode. How does one flash a zip file in that mode?

Are you asking to flash the lineage boot.img in bootloader mode and then flash the entire rom by TWRP?
Do partial flash in bootloader mode, if not already happen, use Minimal ADB and Fastboot:

Introduction ADB and Fastboot are arguably two of the most indispensable tools used when working with Android devices. If you really want to modify, debug, and tweak along with their countless uses in rooting, and other procedures ADB and...
forum.xda-developers.com
Command to flash boot image in console:
fastboot flash boot [boot.img]
Then stay in bootloader mode. The mobild should mount a drive to the system. Copy the ROM imge to the internal storage on that drive. You can copy the rom in TWRP mode also. Then install the rom throug TWRP.
I never sideloaded data. I like to check the transfer is successfully finished. I had some faulty sd cards, wich do no give an error while sideloading stuff.
As an alternative you can use an OTG USb Stick and putt the stuff on this one. Would do the same and could be faster.
If you need drivers for Windows:
Get the Google USB Driver | Android Studio | Android Developers
The Google USB Driver is required to perform adb debugging on Windows with Google devices.
developer.android.com
and the device specified one:
LeEco Le Pro3 USB Driver for Windows (Official Mobile Driver)
Download the official USB Driver for Windows Computer.
gsmusbdriver.com
-> I did not verify if this driver downloads are still valid, please check them first.
I do have the latest drivers and ADB installed. Everything i have been telling you has been done via ADB as well as from the internal storage of the phone.
But my question was, when you say :

What are you exactly asking me to do? How can one flash a zip file using bootloader, assiming that's what you are saying?

Are you asking me to flash the boot.img using bootloader and then flash the rom from TWRP?
My question is i can flash the boot.img from TWRP, can't I? Anything wrong with that approach?
I think understand you now. Do a partial flash using boot loader and the do the rest using TWRP.
Thank you for clarifying. One needs confirmation so we do not do anything we aren't supposed to.
Sorry, I mixed up another case where I'm tring to remove forced data encryption.
There are flashable boot.img in zip files wich you can flash from TWRP, but this is not your one.
I still believe, that something is wrong with your boot partition.
The whole procedure:
- Extract boot.img from Lineagos and install it in bootloader mode: fastboot flash boot [boot.img]
- Boot into TWRP while holding Power and volume up.
- If not done, wipe cache and system, format data.
- Copy LineageOS to the drive / internal storage
- Use TWRP to install the rom

Yes, better one question to much than new problems...
Did as suggested. Still error 1.
I have another question while we continue to look at this. If worse comes to worse i've no choice but to use EUI. Is it possible to patch the latest android security patches to it? That is, rom will be EUI , but updated with all security patches?
