I recently got my 9 Pro and since i'm used to samsung and the crappy knox, i was wondering if i root/install custom roms and i want to reflash the stock rom and relock the bootloader, will i be locked out of certain stuff or does the system still see that the phone was once running unofficial software like samsung does with knox?
No, you shouldn't be locked out of anything going back to stock...
Here's a good read & guide explaining the many update options:

Magisk root method is a very advanced and safest method. And the best part of this method is that you will receive the OTA update, and you will be able to use banking apps without any problems.
First of all, download the latest Magisk Zip file on your phone.
Then rename the downloaded Magisk apk file extension .apk to .zip.
Move the Magisk zip file to your phone’s internal storage.
And make sure you have a Custom Recovery installed on your phone.
Now Boot your OnePlus 9 Pro to TWRP Recovery Mode by pressing Volume Up + Power Button at the same time until open TWRP mode.
Tap on Install from the TWRP Recovery page.
Now locate Magisk.Zip file from your internal storage and select it.
After Tap on Swipe to Confirm Flash.
Then Reboot your phone.
Once your phone boots up, install Magisk Manager APK.
You have Successfully Rooted you OnePlus 9 Pro device.

Well i have experience with root, i've done it for years now that's how i jnow about that knox sh*te ... Currently i'm not rooting because of widevine, since i haven't gotten any luck keeping it L1 after unlocking the bootloader
My thoughts about rooting stock MIUI on Xiaomi 11 Lite 5g NE (Lisa)
This week I'm still waiting for Bootloader, but checking about the possibilities.
Coming from Xiaomi Mi 9T (Davinci) – I owned the phone for 2+ years, used stock EEA first, then switched to Xiaomi.eu Weeklies and finally to Xiaomi.eu Stable.
Trough the time, I went from A9/MIUI 10 to A11/MIUI 12.5, and in parallel I experimented with all relevant Magisk version (Stable, Beta, Canary, Lite, Alpha and Custom Magisk) – curently I'm on Magisk Alpha 23018 (with Zygisk, DenyList, Shamiko – no more the old MagiskHide).
Through all that, I used my Davinci as daily driver, for private and business, and I never had any bigger issues. I hope for the similar experience with my new Lisa.
As you can see, I'm not a fan of custom ROMs (altough I experimented with some of them on my previous devices), hence I also plan for Lisa, at least for now, to stay on MIUI.
Stock MIUI:
1.AFAIK, there are two unofficial custom recoveries but they don't support A12 encryption on /Data and Internal memory, hence they are of limited use for rooting.
They can be used for ADB sideloading and probably with OTG stick and external SD card.
But they cannot install/flash from Internal memory, backup/restore to Internal memory, and generally they cannot backup /Data – specially, TWRP cannot be used for fixing /adb/data in case of magisk bootloops.
2.However, for the installation of Magisk, TWRP is NOT REQUIRED – although by (1), TWRP could be still used for e.g. flashing the Magisk zip from OTG stick.
3.Magisk can be alternatively installed by: installing Magisk app (no root yet), patching the extracted boot.img (in Magisk app), and flashing the patched boot img from Fastboot (therefore, by completely bypassing TWRP).
My Lisa came with EEA 12.5.7 and it was immediately updated to 12.5.8, hence I have downloaded the stock miui_LISAEEAGlobal_V12.5.8.0.RKOEUXM_700eb7116a_11.0.zip and unzipped – but unlike for e.g. Mi 9 series, the OTA package does not contain separated boot.img (192 MB).
Instead, it contains 13.2 GB payload.bin (SAR, Dynamic partitions, all in once) and when I tried, Magisk cannot patch, reporting that format is not supported.
4. There are still some other ways to install Magisk. Maybe, by backing up Boot to OTG stick / external SD card – the backed up boot.emmc.win file can be used as the boot img for patching.
Or by flashing the Magisk zip through TWR (from external SD /OTG) – but that might be risky in case of a brick, fixing may not be easy.
Xiaomi.eu:
Xiaomi.eu ROMs are essentially debloated MIUI. Usually they are even bette, specially if staying on Xiaomi.eu Stable releases (Weekly releases are essentially betas).
Since I was accustomed to Xiaomi.eu on my Davinci, I also planned to switch to Xiaomi.eu on my Lisa.
Currently, they have Stable 12.5.7 (A11), while Weeklies with MIUI 13 / A12 are around the corner (they will start once Xiaomi starts releasing MIUI 13 weekly Betas for Lisa)
5. Hence I have downloaded xiaomi.eu_multi_MI11LE_XM11Lite5GNE_V12.5.7.0.RKOCNXM_v12-11-fastboot.zip. Since there is no TWRP for Lisa, Xiaomi.eu ROM must be installed through Fastboot (unzip and run the batch script windows_fastboot_first_install_with_data_format.bat).
The zip file contains the boot.img and I just tried, Magisk (Alpha) can succesfuly patch – the patched img needs to be flashed from Fastboot to Boot (I cannot proceed for now since still waiting for BL to be unlocked).
If anything goes wrong, it will be just enough to flash the original Xiaomi.eu boot.img.
I already used the same procedure for installing Magisk to Davinci, however I used then TWRP/OF/SHRP (not Fastboot) to flash the patched boot img directly from the couche and the phone – this could even apply to Lisa, if placing the patched boot img to external SD or OTG stock.
Please correct me and/or comment about the other posssbilites about installing Magisk to MIUI on Lisa, specially with your results if you already tried.
I rooted my lisa by the patched boot.img method. Working like a charm! One thing to note is that you need to reinstall Magisk to the inactive slot soon after OTA but before rebooting since the device uses a/b partitioning. But now for some reason, the more dark mode options in the dark mode settings doesn't work anymore

Which ROM are you talking please, Xiaomi.eu or the stock - if stock, please details (CN/Golobal/EEA and MIUI version like in the Settings/My Device)?
I'm asking because for EEA 12.5.8 (that I have) I don't see how can I get boot.img.
I downloaded the OTA zip but it does not contain boot.img, instead, there is 13.2 GB payload.bin inside - see my post above).
For Xiaimu.eu ni problem, their fastboot zip contains the images folder with boot img inside

I'm on the stock MIUI India edition. To get the boot.img, download the fastboot ROM. All the images will be in there. But you can also extract the boot.img from the payload file as well. The guide can be found here.

Ok, thanks, Payload_Dumper works
Since it is A/B device, should I flash to both slots?
fastboot flash boot_a patched_boot.img
fastboot flash boot_b patched_boot.img

Just fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img should be enough. It'll flash the image to the active slot automatically.
Upon waiting the standard 168 hours, I successfully unlocked my new Lisa (Xiaomi 11 Lite 5g NE)

Since I had MIUI EEA 12.5.8 (A11), I downloaded the miui_LISAEEAGlobal_V12.5.8.0.RKOEUXM_700eb7116a_11.0.zip (use MIUI Downloader app from Playstore to make it easy).
Unzipped and found payload.bin inside - used Payload_Dumper (search on XDA) to extract boot.img
I installed Magisk Alpha 24001 app (the same will work for Magisk Stable or Magic Beta 2400x) and patched the boot.img.
I first tested does it boot correctly:
fastboot boot patched_boot.img
and then permanently flashed the Magisk:
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
New Magisk does no more support MagiskHide - use Zygisk+DenyList+Shamiko instead:
In Magisk app, enable Zygisk and reboot.
Then enable Enforce DenyList, open Configure DenyList, enable filter to show System and OS apps, find Google Play Services (GMS) and checkmark:
com.google.android.gms
com.google.android.gms.unstable
Additionally checkmark the other (like banking) apps you used to checkmark for MagiskHide in the old Magisk v23
E.g., I always checkmark Xiaomi stock Security (com.miui.securitycenter) and Safety Net checkers like YASNAC (download from Playstore - Magisk does no more include SafetyNet checker coming with the app).
Reboot again.
Since it is also good idea to hide this new Zygisk, I installed Shamiko (Magisk module) and disabled Enforce DenyList (Shamiko will read and take over from DenyList).
Reboot
Additionally, to hide init.rc, I installed InitRcHider module.
Finally to pass the SafetyNet (CTS, unlocked Bootloader), I installed USNF 2.2.1 (latest at the moment, like all the other modules I mention here).
Note: InitRcHider and Shamiko are not required for SN, but without Zygisk+DenyList+USNF you will not pass
Google Play was showing that Device is not certified - I deleted Cache and Data for Google Play Store app, rebooted and after some time Device was certified
Since Magisk does no more connect to the Modules Repo, use Fox Magisk Module Manager
---
Further, I installed AdAway hosts/root mode (don't forget to enable Systemless Hosts in Magisk, and reboot), Vanced YouTube root
By using SystemlessDebloater (find in Fox Mmm), I have debloated 40-something preinstalled system apps - attached is the config list for Debloater, if you want to keep certain apps (Facebook or so, remove those names from the list)
E.g., for Vanced YT, I first uninstalled all updates to YT and then used SystemlessDebloater to debloat the built in the system YT v17, then successfully installed Vanced YT root that requires YT v16.29.39
---
Since Riru is incompatible with Zygisk, use LSposed-Zygisk version. As LSPosed modules, I use GravityBox_R, CustoMIUIzer and HideMyApplist (HMA)
E.g. with HMA I detach (hide) YouTube and AndroidAuto (I still need to configure apps and hacks for AA - work in progress) - YT Vanced root and similarly the hacks for AA require particular old versions of YT or AA.
By detaching those apps from Playstore, I make sure that Playstore does not bother, and does not update by mistake (even mine) YT and AA
Also, banking and similar apps usually look for Magisk app, LSPosed, and LSPosed modules - if they find, they detect 'root'
You can use e.g. Oprek Detector (fromg Google Play):
- checkmark in DenyList
- use HMA to hide Magisk app, LSPosed and Lsposed modules (apps) from Oprek Detector.
As a result, Oprek Detector will no more find root
Use that as a proof of concept for hiding the root from banking apps (altough, some of them may require additional steps)
Thanks to @HimanshuRaj (his TG support and his SHRP - another thread), I have now both Magisk and permanent TWRP (more precisely, SHRP), both in the patched boot.img:
- fastboot boot to SHRP
- from SHRP, flash SHRP img to Ramdisk -Recovery
- Stay in SHRP and flash the Magisk apk renamed to zip file
Normal booting boots to Sydtem/Magisk and rebooting to Recovery boots to Magisk
Thanks a lot @zgfg for the guide!
I'm going to save this thread as in the future it's possible I will try to root my mobile following your instructions.
Now, one more successful experiment:
- Magisk Alpha notified about the update (to 24102)
- hence I updated the Magisk Alpha app and then took the Direct update for Magisk itself
It updated the boot img, but correctly keeping the previously installed permanent SHRP:
- 'normal' booting boots to System/Magisk
- rebooting to Recovery boots to SHRP
I followed your steps and it works fine, just making sure on how to get permanent SHRP
i have a fully functioning lisa now with magisk and a couple of modules, do i need to redo all of it when trying to install SHRP with your instructions?
and do i flash the patched magisk file or the default app apk?
for context: i tried installing shrp twice and performing backups with it but ended up having to clean install stock rom again, maybe it was because i was missing an sd card but i tried it using a pc and just pulling the backup to and from there

Permanent installation for SHRP (Lisa) was also covered (how-to) in the TG channel (link in SHRP thread, itsvOP post #1).
As said, I have permanently installed both Magisk v24.3 and SHRP v0 2 (from TG channel) into the Boot partition (since there is no Recovery partition) and I can boot into System with Magisk (normal boot) or to SHRP (boot to Recovery, with Vol+)
And in SHRP, Internal memory, USB-OTG and external SD work flawlessly
However, the SHRP supports only MIUI 12.5, (A11) not A12 (MIUI 13)

Anyway, more about rooting:
Just installed the Magisk module:
[MOD][Magisk][MIUI][v1.1]ALWAYS on display for Mi 10 Lite (monet)
Hi there! I made this Magisk module to enable more options to choose with the Always on display on monet and not only the annoying option of "10 seconds after tapping". Did it modifying the "AODSettings.smali" file inside an old AOD apk, where...
forum.xda-developers.com
and with that, I can finally use AOD really always (or scheduled), not only for 10 seconds as Xiaomi pushed to MiUI 12.5.8

the question was rather if you flashed SHRP and magisk before or after installing all said modules and LSPosed but since SHRP isnt working it wont help me anymore
alright so i wont be able to use SHRP since i have A12 running the xiaomi.eu roms, thanks for the info!

Boot is /boot partition, Magisk staff (all modules, LSPosed, etc goes to /data partition
Hence the order does not matter.
Everything what is needed was explained above and in the TG channel, hence sorry I will not waste time drawing the architecture again
Anyway, when I took SHRP v0.2, and permanently flashed, I 'lost' Magisk for eg 5 minutes.
I made backup of boot partition in SHRP (it was no more stock but with SHRP), patched Magisk to the backed-up img, went back to SHRP and flashed to Boot. Since then I had back both Magisk patch and SHRP in the Boot, and when I booted back to System/Magisk I had all my 5 Magisk modules, LSPosed and it's 3 modules running
It's all about to understand what goes to different partitions Boot and Data, hence playing with Boot does not affect what was previously installed to Data
Anyway, SHRP is of no use for you (yet), but be aware that there TWRP does not support A12 yet, hence neither the derivatives like SHRP
---
And if you use patch and flash (in fastboot) method, you can install Magisk with no need for TWRP/SHRP
alright thanks, just had to make sure i didnt do stuff wrong and thats why i lost my data, thanks again for the info on TWRP and A12 not (yet) being available which was probably the reason how everything broke
anyone succeeded in rooting miui 13 Indian varient?
kindly share boot image patched
Today I updated my Xiaomi 11 lute 5g ne to MiUI 13 and my root has gone. So I have to use Magisk to patch boot.img. It created patched boot file but when I flash it to my phone and reboot, it freezes on MI logo screen. It didn't work like before. Please help me, thank you.
P/s: when I find rom I saw 2 files: boot.img & boot-gki.img. I only copied boot.img to my phone to patch.

Were you able to figure a way out? I'm in the same situation where I've tried everything to root 13.0.3 and it gets stuck on boot logo everytime.
