Flash TWRP Recovery
You will need the TWRP recovery to root your device. Further you will be able to install Custom ROMs (like sMiUI) on your device.
I have linked an existing TWRP Image made by a guy called “cloud”. Unfortunately he still had a bug in his version which cancelled ROM installations for the RedMi Note 3! I patched the TWRP Image and fixed this bug. So you will find a fully working TWRP Image in the Requirements.
REQUIREMENTS:
— Xiaomi phone
— Unlocked Bootloader (see above)
— TWRP Image File ( DOWNLOAD )
— Fastboot Binaries (you can find a fastboot.exe in the Unlocking Software ZIP)
1. Boot your Phone to Fastboot Mode (Power + volume down)
2. Connect your Phone via USB to your Computer
3. Start a windows terminal in the directory where your TWRP Image and Fastboot exe is located.
type ” fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Some Devices Come with same boot and recovery partition so if above code Show no recovery partition then use below code
fastboot flash ramdisk recovery.img
or boot to recovery without flashing fastboot boot recovery.img
4. Wait for the process to finish
type “fastboot reboot“
5. After your system comes up you can reboot to Recovery mode (Power + volume up)
Enjoy your fully working TWRP Recovery.
