Hi sifu,
I am noob to Andriod and I have a Redmi Note 3 MY Version (650 SD) and I would like to replace the current Miui 8 to Andriod 6. Appreciate if you guys can tell me the steps to do it. And also can I re-install back the stock Miui 8 again after installing Andriod 6.

Like I mentioned earlier that I am new to Andriod. I have gotten the unlock bootloader approved by the team today.

My question is can I use Mi unlock Tool to unlock and I am currently running stock ROM Miui 8.06 or I need developer ROM ?

Please advise.

Try unlock in 8.0.6 first.. If fails then only change to China Dev ROM.
Because some people said it works on stable but some not.
China Dev ROM has 99% will work provided you follow the steps(check 1st page)

Hi AMDAthlon, is it fine to use "MiFlashUnlock_1.1.0315.1_en" to unlock?

Any latest version of MiFlash Unlock will do..  The link is given on the unlock page anyway..

I'm used this guide to flash my phone from stable global to global developer via EDL mode.

use local backup, scroll down for instructions to restore but pic/video must transfer separately.

CM14 is stable enough for daily use. Only problem that I faced is the camera FC when switch to front and the flash not sync with camera.

The later version has some issue with Whatsapp backup and internal storage etc but can be fixed by editing the build.prop.

If you expect flash and play better don't try.

Battery life is good. I haven't really do a SOT test yet.

Hi Clieman, do u mind to share how did u fix WhatsApp backup as I facing the same problem with CM14.1.

Edit build.prop

Find
#Storage
ro.sys.sdcardfs=true

Change to
#Storage
ro.sys.sdcardfs=false

If you cannot edit directly on /system, first use ES File Explorer to copy the file from /system to /sdcard. Edit and save it in /sdcard, then boot to TWRP, mount /system and use the File Manager to copy the file back to /system. Chmod to 0644. Then reboot system and you will be able to backup Whatsapp.

Awesome, will try it out. Happy New Year to u!
