Redmi Note 2 already rooted

Hello everyone, this is my first thread
Today I receive my Redmi Note 2 , after I power up the device to check wether it is using a not official MIUI rom or not...well I'm kinda surprised that teh rom is MIUI 7 (already???) but still beta ver, I hope this ROM is stabil, and it is already rooted (via kingroot), damn...
Please give me your opinion, thank you

You have two Roms on miui 7.
Developer (beta) Roms and the Stable Roms.
Dev Roms are weekly updated and have root.
Stable is like other do, when they think that a developer rom is OK... They move it for stable.
Go to xiaomi.eu website. There you have the Roms translated to many languages, without Chinese apps.
They cook the Chinese rom to us. And many stores install there rom before send to users. Probably, your is already from there.
Cheers.

As far as i know , miui.eu didn't use kingroot.
Make sure you have the real rmn2 device(not some fake one), and you have nothing to worry.
Simply change your rom to miui.eu's rom then you will be fine.
Their rom is clean, multilang, and with gapps. They also cut the Chinese bloatware off.
Their rom is based on the Chinese weekly update beta rom.

When I check via antutu n geekbench, it is the real redmi note2

I have MIUI 7 ver 5.9.24, when I try to update it, it says no updates available, can anyone give me hints how to update manually?

I'm curious where you bought it, which shop pre-installed Kingroot?

This don't work. You have to use TWRP recovery.
Or maybe install the official global rom: http://en.miui.com/download-274.html
It has got OTA updateds
~ Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 Prime ~

I have stock recovery and I always update this way.

So finally I download the global rom, and reflashed it this morning hahaha, install the twrp first it is

Mine came with MIUI 7.0. Stable 7.00.66.00 whats the best ROM i can flash on it?
also it gives an error if i try to install it via the updated app '' install.zip failed update.zip signature verification failed'' if i try to install xiaomi.eu_multi_hermes_5.11.26_v7-5.0.zip
Any idea's??
nvm, you have to do it via TWRP because it doesnt work via the updater app anymore. Works like a charm now.

I'm using same rom (7.0.6.0), I think it is good enough, rom is very personally experienced, so you should choose what's best suitable for you

could u easily flash a new rom via TWRP aswell now (custom roms) this rom i use now is a weekly rom i guess it gets updated weekly, but i just installed TWRP 2.8.7. it works really well for installing.

[Help] Stock recovery.img of redmi 3s needed

Hello XDA, if any of redmi 3s user here can extract the stock recovery of redmi 3s (land), it would be highly appreciated.

So, if anyone can please upload the recovery, it would be really helpful.
Have a good day

Why not flash another official ROM by MiFlash? It'll bring stock recovery, afaik.

Download the fastboot rom. It will include recovery.img

Thanks guys. I know that fastboot ROM will include the recovery.img but compare 1.7 GB with 30 MB.
I asked for stock recovery because 6.9.28 Global beta was giving find device force close on bootup.
I downloaded xiaomi.eu miui 8.0.6.0 and it's working great.

Global Rom is not good anyway IMHO. Use Chinese dev, it has English.

The ROM from Xiaomi.eu is not exactly stock ROM, it is a heavily modified under the hood version of Stock ROM. It has better RAM management, better fluidity and the number of bloat apps is very few, like 30 in stock and 2-3 in Xiaomi.eu version.
I really like it and I intent to stay on it
Also, are you by the name Aron Ne on Facebook?

I used developer ROM. Flash that first then you will be able to unlock bootloader. Make sure that you have got permission.

Is my phone going to get bricked?

Hello I have Xiaomi Redmi 5 Plus that is currently running on Pixel Experience. Before that i had xiaomi.eu rom 10.3.x.x... The latest rom for my phone from official Xiaomi rom site is 10.2.1.0..
Now the question is will my phone get bricked if i flash stock miui rom?

If you have unlocked bootloader, you can flash latest rom via mi-flash tool. It will not brick your device. Redmi 5 plus aka Vince doesn't have ARB feature. So you are free to flash any version of rom as long as your bootloader is unlocked.

Hi! No, in my experience, I used miui and custom roms, flashing it following their respective instructions and nothing went bad. Follow the instructions and you will go ok, but, if you fail, you will learn how fix it too

yes i know that i wont get bricked for using pixel experience... but i had xiaomi.eu rom on it which was higher than the one xiaomi officially provides... I am asking because i noticed that custom recovery said Detected reinstall of bootloader.. and that is not a good sign..

It doesn't matter, every time you install an update of firmware that message is showed, but remember if you come from miui stock or miui based rom, you need to format data

Redmi K20 can't install any ROM except Global ROM.

My device has unlocked bootloader and install the newest TWRP. When I check ARB it was 0 so I can't even flash ROM using Mi Flash. So I install ROM by TWRP but expect Global ROM and EU Dev, I can't install any kind of ROM. There are one time I unpatched fastboot ROM Global 11.0.1.0 and install system.img and boot.img because I got error when install flash firmware to flash ROM. And now, I can't even flash EU Dev, just Global now. Maybe you guy know that Global ROM is the worst and got a lot of small errors but very annoying. Can anyone here tell me why ? Thank you so much and sorry for my bad English.

My Redmi Note 7 Repeatedly Freezes.

My xiaomi redmi note 7 device is currently running Android 11 Lineage OS 18.1, and I've been facing an issue in which the phone just freezes randomly, and I'm unable to use it until I force a restart. I faced a similar issue when I was using Cherish OS A12 but it was less frequent. Does anyone have an idea on what the problem could be or how to fix it?

One day something similar happened to me, I recommend you flashing the original firmware of the Redmi Note 7, you can download it from mi community.
I was using cherish, and i didn't have any problem. Before you flash the original firmware, i recommend you to try Project Arcana, it is a good custom rom

Flash only the last firmware without wipe, before you test to flash stock rom and begin new.

Thank you. I actually already flashed the stock MIUI ROM and I didn't notice it anymore. But I don't want to stick with MIUI. I've been using custom ROMs for a while without experiencing this issue. I just don't know why it's an issue now.

What exactly do you mean by firmware please, I'd appreciate an explanation. I downloaded the latest recovery firmware from that site, but it's a 2gb zip file. I assumed it's the ROM.

Thank you very much. I think I understand now. I'll do that.

UPDATE
I have since flashed the latest firmware and the issue still persists. I also flashed the fastboot ROM of the device to have a fresh start per se, but the issue still returns when I install a custom ROM. Currently on Project Arcana OS, and it's still happening. I have decided to use the ROM without Magisk, because it seems to be the only thing I haven't tried yet, and there haven't been any freezes for almost 24 hours now. I will update this if it happens again.
