Hey guys,
I'm using Mi Mix 2 running MIUI 10 Global 8.8.23 and I'm about to install Google Camera and Dolby Atmos on this device. We all know that to do this I have to unlock bootloader, install TWRP, root or something like that.
Then my question is: after successfully installing GCam and Dolby, can I unroot, go back to the stock recovery and relock the bootloader to get the OTA update but keeping GCam and Dobly work persistently and flawlessly within the Global Rom ?

Do you mean that using a locked bootloader comes along with No Gcam or Dobly right ?

If you lock the bootloader after modding the system in any way, your phone will soft brick
So pretty much, no, you cant use locked bl with gcam and dolby

Hello Guys,
I have a Oneplus 3 with Oxygen OS 4.0.1 with locked Bootloader atm because when I try to use Android Pay with Root and Freedom OS it doesn't work
I figured out that this Safetynet fails when I unlock my Bootloader but
I would like to get the EmojiOne Emojis back in Whatsapp and Android Keyboard is this Possible ?
Is there a Way to bypass Safetynet that I can use Root and V4A again ?
(I already tried Magisk)
Greetings
Magisk has an emoji one module, root, etc while passing safety net

It doesn't work on Oneplus 3 because it's nearly Stock and the Safety Thing checks for unlocked Bootloader......
I managed it by installing a custom Whatsapp Mod and maybe a custom Keyboard soon.....

In fact, Magisk patch the bootloader dm-verity (which is used by SafetyNet to check if your device is unlocked), so juste flash a completly stock system, check SafetyNet, and Install latest Magisk with the modules you want, reboot and you're good to go !

Working perfectly with the normal way of unlocking, installing TWRP and flashing Magisk
What can you do with root before it breaks ? (Xposed,Substratum,Adblocker or V4A working ?)
What were your Steps to get it working ?
Do you still have the DM-Veriy Warning on Boot ?

I'm running Open Beta 13 with an unlocked bootloader and Magisk with Substratum. I would recommend unlocking your bootloader, flashing stock, then rooting with just Magisk, not SuperSU. I followed these steps and I have it working, SafetyNet passed.

Its working perfectly on op3 with magisk. So relax.
You must check magisk hide in magisk settings ofc.
Running latest freedomOS CE and all good. Magisk, safetynet, V4A, abblock, substratum. All working.
So stop saying it doesnt work with unlocked bootloader, thats just bull****.
Update to latest version of Freedom OS.
I think you should try updating your ROM to latest version of Freedom OS. Has everything you need.
Thanks Guys
It works
My wife and I have an Mi6, but her device came unlocked.
Problem with this is that as it's unlocked, she can't download Netflix from Playstore.
Same situation happens with other apps so, my idea is to install stable global rom and let the device locked.
Hopefully someone will be able to give me a hand.
Thanks in advance.

i found this but it is chinese hope you can understand or you can use chrome to translate it
Method1: You can flash stock rom and choose "clean_all_and_lock" at the bottom, this way you will lock bl.
http://en.miui.com/a-234.html
Method2:
The other way is to type
Code:
fastboot oem lock
but this ain't as safe as the first method if you have custom recovery

No custom recovery. It is seems the rom she has is beta.
I will check first option to leave her phone with latest global stable release as she's not used to root.

Have you tried locking the bootloadeer through XiaomiTool? There is the option to block bootloader

Hi there,
Have you already tried sideloading the Netflix app on your wife's device?
I never tried that, but I guess the app is not available only through the Playstore.

Yes, I've downloaded the app from Apk mirror.
However, my wife is not so much into technology, so she will not do this every time. This is why I want her to have global stable locked, so she can use Playstore with no problems.
thanks

Does anyone have trouble with 8.11.15 with Magisk 17.1 and safetynet? On Magisk Manager, it shows CTS Profile false although Basic Integrity is true. I can't use Google Pay.

You have to get rid of DATA encryption, and make sure DM-Verity is gone.
Just bought it today and i have to wait for the bootloader unlock.
In the meantime i updated to MIUI Stable 10 10.0.3.0 (OEAMIFH).
Is there a way to update to Global Beta Pie, or i must wait for the unlock?
If so, is it simple as that i download the rom to the phone and update through the updater? Will i lose my files if i update?
Thanks!
I was on the same situation, downloaded a 8.0 Global Dev and then got an OTA to latest Global Dev that is already 9. It does wipe all your data and yes you can do everything through the updater.

I just got this device 2 days ago but already saw some tricky stuff, after the bootloader unlock you should flash twrp and them some files that are for decrypting the storage and dm-verify, after that is just a regular unlocked phone and you can flash anything through TWRP. I'm gona give Xiaomi.eu a try (had several Xiaomi phones with it) but i'm pretty curious about that Pixel port too

Wow, 2 days and you unlocked the bootloader? I had a Mi Mix 2s before that, but i still need to wait 15 days for that new Mi 8 to unlock, doesn't make sense... Xiaomi EU was good for m, never had problems on my 2s, also the night mode on Gcam made miracles!

Oh no still waiting for the bootloader unlock, 300 hours or something to go... Only downloaded everything needed to be ready
Already had a Mi4c with Xiaomi.eu and recently a Mi Note 2 with Pixel Experience.
The Gcam works really well on this Mi8, I'm using the latest version on the Global Dev and all except the Slowmo works

then try magiskhide props config module to change fingerprint. op6 for example.
Does VoLTE and VoWIFI work on this rom?
How can I install Gcam on Pie no root?
You cannot
You need root because you must enable Camera2API
Maybe this guide can help you: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/how-to/guide-how-to-enable-camera2-api-t3851414
It's a tutorial how to enable the Camera2API without an unlocked bootloader
You can't do it on a locked bootloader, but you can unlock bootloader, get temporary root access, enable Cam2API, then lock the bootloader. Cam2API doesn't screw with OTAs.

Hi guys.
I have Mi pad 5 (Nabu) Global rom miui 13.0.1.0 ( RKXMIXM ) Now, Bootloader is locked. And haven't root yet.
I have idea to unlock bootloader and install Viper4android. For flexible to setting sounds.
But there's no official TWRP for now. And I don't want to root it.
Would it be possible if I do it without magisk?
Thanks in advance for all advice.
Viper4android will not work without root. You have to unlock the bootloader and flash patched boot.img.
If you don't want to root your device, then ist there no way to get Viper4android working in your Mi Pad 5.
Wavelet app should do the job if you do not want to root. It is similar to v4a you can select correct ddc for your headset etc. Limited in functions of course but works w/o issues.

My phone Redmi K20 is unlocked. But haven't root.
I have installed Viper4android via TWRP.
But now is none of TWRP for mi pad 5. So I have no idea how to install it.
Probably I have to rooting for this.
Do you think that will have TWRP for mi pad 5 in soon ?
