Hi guys, thanks for that, i can confirm this solution works on P601 running kitkat
- installed TWRP 2.6.3.3 tar via Odin (heard the 2.7 could bug on this device)
- boot in TWRP and install UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94 that i previously stored in my ext xd card
- straight after boot, updated super SU app via playstore
- open super SU app, accept binary update via twrp, let it do his job
- after automatic reboot, open superSU app, click no at question "do you want to disable Knox"
- reboot, do the same step but answer "yes"
Enjoy

Unrooting And OTA updates
Unrooting - - IMPORTANT TO OTA UPDATE
Use the superSU app's in-built settings to unroot it
OTA updates
Your OTA updates wont break if u root it, And you dont Have to Unroot to update!!
To do OTA update, open updater app and download the update and update normally, the update will go good in 15 minutes!, This means Updater app is compatible with this custom recovery, nothing to fear!!

Dear Dev
Thanks for the tutorial. I'm hereby conforming that this tutorial is working great for Xiaomi Redmi 1S,Indian version.
Try it and I'm sure in no way it will harm anything as it didn't to mine.
Thanks & Regards

What version of MIUI have you tried this? Also, what is the effect of receiving the OTA update while still have root?
Thanks for this!
Update: Confirmed working, MIUI 36/

That's not a easy way... It's the same method, I think Philz recovery is more useful and easy to flash zips and for utilities, cwm recovery is tooo basic, and I've taken some time to explain it for newbies so it's lengthy

Your OTA updates wont break if u root it, but u need to unroot before updating
To do OTA update, open updater app and download the update and dont flash it
Copy the OTA update zip from downloaded_rom folder in internal memory to External memory and reboot to recovery and flash it as you flashed superSU zip in rooting process

What do you mean by "Your OTA updates won't break" does it mean I will still be notified if there is an update?

Yep you will get Update notification and the updater app will download it, but as the recovery is not miui so it wont flash it, just manually flash it after unrooting it

Works like a charm!
Works as told on Redmi 1s (Indian version)
Thank you very much bro
Really appreciate it.

super works great!
successfully rooted my device!

Update works without removing root
Hi guys,
This is my first time posting on xda forums. I just wanted to share what happened today.
I rooted my redmi 1s according to the post with philz recovery. However today i recieved the update (MIUI v45) and without realizing that the update was already downloaded i clicked on update and got scared because it says here that it wont be able to update because the stock recovery is missing. But what happened was that it booted into philz recovery and updated through that. It took longer than usual around 15 mins I would say but It got updated.
It gave me option to retain the root and the custom recovery to which I said yes. And it worked. I still have my root permssions, all the root apps and phils recovery.

indian rom
i flashed PA IN MY PHONE can i get the indian rom back ??? i cant find indian miui rom anywhere

What went wrong?

Thanks a lot for this tutorial..

Thanks a ton, works like a charm!!!
I did as explained and got it working with ease!
I also installed no frill cpu app and tinkered with the settings some!
Will report on the changes in heating or battery life due to this underclocking!
Can't undervolting help?
Just one question, why does not the native security pop-up come instead of superSU one?

Because MIUI superuser is a little buggy and unresponsive sometimes and hence superSU app will do the same work and MIUI will collect private data but superSU app will never do that so I think This SuperSU app is way better than native MIUI

Official beta Miui 6 latest flashable zip

I'm using philz recovery v6.55.0 to install beta miui 6 rom.
Download and put that zip file into internal storage and do clean flash before flash rom.

Anyone can answer me the following questions? (I'm on MIUI V5 and I'm pretty happy,everything works fine so I don't want to change just to go back)
1.Is the battery drop after reboot bug gone?
2.How's ram?In previous releases after doing some operations like(facebook/browsing/etc) when you tap on home button an message "Just a sec" was displayed and then after 1-2 seconds it loaded the launcher.Also multitasking was kinda bad,If you clicked a link on facebook and opened the browser,when you went back to facebook,the app didn't started from where you left it,it reloaded,like when you refresh timeline to get the latest notifications.It didn't kept in memory more than 2 apps,and those 2 apps shouldn't be too "big".
Thanks !

use mi own recovery for stable installation

10.2.1.0 Global Update Available

Just checked for updates and this popped up. Enjoy.
Link for the download is: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.2.1.0.PEEMIXM/miui_MIMIX3Global_V10.2.1.0.PEEMIXM_9dc43870b4_9.0.zip

I just got this too! Do you know how I can update having twrp installed?

I just tried to install the smaller update above, it failed and now I'm downloading a 1.8gb version. Of you have TWRP installed, I'd probably just download the older OTA and fastboot flash boot boot.img from that OTA.

You should be able to install it like normal but ensure when your device reboots you enter your password to enter twrp. If that doesn't work just reboot into twrp and install it by selecting it from the downloaded ROM directory (I forget what the folder is called but it's not the normal download folder). You will have to reflash twrp afterwards.

What version of Magisk did you install? I tried 17.3 and have a bootlooping phone.

The URL for the big OTA (1.8gb) is: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.2.1.0.PEEMIXM/miui_MIMIX3Global_V10.2.1.0.PEEMIXM_9dc43870b4_9.0.zip

I just tried downloading a fresh copy of the Magisk zip. Same result. The phone starts booting then reboots into recovery. I don't know why this doesn't work. Did you have a "global" version of the phone? If so, can you backup your boot image with TWRP (the Magisk rooted one) and post it so we can try downloading and installing to see if it works on a Chinese phone?

Is it normal for the update size to not be displayed? This is my first update using a Xiaomi device & found it odd to not know how large a update was.

Mine showed the size for the small incremental which failed and for the full OTA which installed sucessfully. I have not been able to root this with Magisk, no matter what I tried. Every attempt at rooting with SuperSU or Magisk caused the device to bootloop and go back to recovery.

Oh ****.. I'm guessing its the 599M? For some reason I thought that was part of the build. :laugh: Lmao.

Yeah, that's the update download size. Don't be surprised when the 599 one fails to install (if you have stock recovery). It will download a 1.8GB one (the one I linked to in the OP now) and that one will install as expected. I think you can install either with TWRP if you want. GLHF

anyone figured how to root this? I flashed twrp then flash magisk 17.3 but it kept bootlooping to twrp.

No, I've tried everything. I have a suspicion we can root this on the Chinese device after we have fastboot images.

[FIX] No More annoying Red | Blue Blink on Status Bar

ColorOS users with device decrypted or rooted should have Red blinking on status bar which is quite annoying. So here is the solution, I have patched SystemUI.apk which shouldn't display red blink.
Bonus: Upon request by few users I have also removed Blue Blink too which was supposed to be triggered when Hotspot is enabled.​
The below zip file works for A20, A21 & A22. Download, reboot to recovery & flash. Enjoy
SystemUI_R2Pro_Patched.zip​​
Thanks @gt_ablaze for testing​

Hi @4j17h, I was using xposed module to hide root notification, I uninstalled it before flashing this zip, I've tried flashing multiple times. It seems that it doesn't work. Is there any other way?

There seems to be issues with the custom recovery, zip isn't getting installed. Only way to confirm that the zip is installed is to check /system/priv-app/SystemUI/ oat folder shouldn't be there.
Follow this, freshly boot into recovery then flash firmware, then install zip & flash magisk reboot. This is how other ppl did.

Hi, suggestion by @iki_sure works for me. Now no more xposed modules needed anymore. Thank you.

Flash without decryption?
Can we flash it by installing twrp recovery without decryption as data will be deleted while decrypting device

This is awesome work and I was looking for this for a long long time. I had an OTA to C.22 yesterday, are there any plans to make this fix available for C22 as well?
