as of yet, There is no working rooting method for the Mi 4i. Any claims about a working process are fake and scams. Hopefully we will see some development for the phone in the coming weeks. :fingers-crossed:

working?

yeah man, just wanted to share this with ppl who wanted to root their Mi 4i

Check this out it is working How to root Mi 4I

I've been trying different ADB drives but no matter how they all install, under Device Manager in the PC (64-bit Windows 8.1), it has a yellow exclamation mark beside it. But when I run "adb version" from the command prompt, it gives me the version. When I try running the tool to root it, it just stays stuck at the first thing (I tried the english version as well and it said "Waiting for the device. If you have been stuck here check ADB drivers and USB debugging is on") . My USB debugging is definitely on.. but the phone is on and at the MUIU homescreen with nothing happening - it doesn't restart to fastboot or anything.
This is for a new Mi 4i running the latest MIUI developer ROM.
FIXED: I followed the instructions at this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LbAq6d2Du0U) where I "pick the device drivers" for each of them in the Device Manger, chose ADB Interface Driver and installed them successfully. When I run the command "adb devices", it shows me a device. Ran the tool again and the phone asked me if I would like to allow USB Debugging. After saying yes, it rebooted into Fastboot. Now waiting for the device to be rooted.
Success, Mi4i device has been rooted.. heading over to the thread to hit thanks

Root Your Pantech Crossover [P8000] (GingerBread 2.3.6)

If you have updated your Pantech Crossover with latest update of gingerbread 2.3.6 and regretting it, don't feel bad because you can now root it with few simple steps which are mentioned hereunder...
NOTE: this procedure is very much safe, but if you mess something up just because of your less technical knowledge/experience then don't blame because I don't take any responsibility of your mistakes.
- connect your CrossOver with your computer and make sure that latest drivers are installed.
- download and extract attached file and open command prompt placed in it.
- type "adb reboot bootloader" and wait for phone to boot into bootloader mode (your phone will remain on 10% loading bar which is actually bootloader mode, so don't panic) [people with bootloader drivers issue should download modified drivers from the link below]
- type "fastboot boot recovery.img" and your phone will boot into CWM recovery.
- copy update.zip to your memory card and select "install update.zip from memory card" from the recovery menu.
- restart your phone and you are rooted.

Awesome! Been hoping someone would crack this for a while.
Do you have a source for the .exe files by any chance? I'm on a linux box now, I'll be able to try it on Windows by tomorrow I think.
edit: nvm, had fastboot all along. thanks!
For those rooting, don't forget to enable Superuser through an app like Terminal Emulator.
If you open Terminal Emulator and the command prompt starts with a $, you are still rooted. Type "su" (without the quotes). If the next line in the command prompt starts with a #, congrats!
You're awesome

Hi,
Firstly, thanks for posting this guide and the resources and files. I'm having a problem. After typing "fastboot boot recovery.img" in the cmd prompt, it says <waiting for device> and then doesn't do anything. On the device, the screen is still stuck at the loading screen with the bar at 10%. The only thing I can do is pull the battery to get it to boot up normally.
Am I missing a step or doing something wrong? Sorry this is my first experience with rooting. Is there anything that needs to be done before attempting to root using this method? My phone is pretty stock except for a few apps and launcher pro. Thanks for all the help.

android development drivers are missing in your computer, while your phone is in bootloader mode, check your device manager for that...
Here is the link to download these drivers:

After I got the right drivers installed, worked like a charm thanks.

Thanks for the help. Ok, so when I have the device at the 10% loading bar, in the device manager it shows "Other devices" with an "Android" subcategory with the yellow exclamation (!) mark. I right click that, click update driver, and point it to the directory with the download and unzipped drivers that you asked me to download. However, it says it can't find any drivers to install.
Note that when I'm normally running the phone connected to the computer, it shows up in the device manager as a Pantech android device, and I can transfer files seamlessly using the Pantech Connectivity Suite. Sorry for asking so many questions. I really appreciate the help. If there's any other information you need that I forgot to add, let me know. Thanks again for the help.

Vodafone Smart 4 Turbo - Few Q's

I just got this phone today. Its a good little phone for the price but Id like to try some other stock 4.4 kernels if possible.
I have rooted the phone and I can get into fastboot mode but fastboot.exe just hangs at waiting for device.
I think this is a driver issue as in device manager in windows I have "Android" listed with no driver. I have downloaded fastboot and adb drivers but this has not worked.
Is there another driver I need for this to work with a Vodafone Smart 4 Turbo?
Thanks.
Bump anyone?

I did it via vroot .
Question: how can i readd the clock & weather widget? I removed it from the homescreen and can't see it in the widget list. Only reset to factory?
Depends on your phone-revision.
If it's 890N, it's more or less not possible.

ive tried every root option i know to root this phone 890n 4.4.4 and nothing works,cant even get it to connect to adb as it goes into fastboot mode only if you remove battery and plug usb in but it only says fastbootmode and no other options and when its like that adb cany see device, it does when phone switched on gives serial number. im stuck. Anyone had any luck yet or still no joy?

when you said you got into fastboot mode, did it just say fastboot mode or did it give you options? mine just says fastboot mode which is no good as it doesnt give options to start fastboot its because vodafone or coolpad have messed about with it that much its useless. ive just had a reply off coolpad americas as i sent email there didnt know uk address but they said there waiting for a reply from uk counterparts and then theyll sent me source code and other tools for phone.(we'll see if they do).
i thought bootloader was locked on these phones or is it because some have 4.4.4 firmware it cant be rooted as a lot with 4.4.2 firmware have confirmed root?
I dont have this phone anymore.
I never did manage to try other kernels etc
My friend has this phone, rooted via kingroot. Any custom roms (esp cyanogenmod) out for it? BTW, cant find any custom recovery, pls post links to them if you can find any thanks
2017 still main phone
Rooted it & took Gapps & everything off...still using it daily for surfing sessions.
Have the 7 version which is just as excellent...waiting for an easy root method, but I think they're being locked tight.
Would be nice to have an option in 'developer' section that pops up after 3 months & offers root...,....

HELP!! Galaxy Core Prime only boots into download mode, need to recover data

Phone is stock, SM-S820L, not rooted or anything as I'm a noob, however a slightly more educated noob after watching the videos making fun of noobs from xda as well as reading the slang terms and adb noob guides.
So I can say with confidence, my phone is NOT bricked nor bootlooping. I was not trying to do any kind of flashing or rooting, I was just updating maps and cue my problem.
Phone turns on and after a minute of blank screen with no splash screen no boot animation, it shows a red letter "movinand checksum confirmation fail" error message. Same error shows up if I try to charge the phone, not sure if it's charging or not.
The phone will NOT boot into recovery, only download mode.
I need to recover data from my phone to my pc. That is my priority/main concern.
After I do that, I would then like to know how to root my phone, install clockwork cyanogen whatever so I don't have to go through this again.
Help me xda grand masters, you're my only hope.

I don't know if you're trolling or serious but the computer does not see the phone, at all, there is no trying to install drivers or wrong drivers installed or unknown device in device manager. The drivers/kies/Odin not recognizing the phone are irrelevant as the computer has to see the phone first.
And I didn't mention this earlier but. .. I already installed the correct drivers from Samsung, drivers is not the issue.

wrong boot img flashed. Now phone stuck in bootloop and won't be detected by PC

Hi guys,
Before i start, just be informed that i have tried google all possible solutions and tried them but to no avail. I know its a long shot but perhaps someone may be able to help however small the chances are.
My phone is a Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Snapdragon variant and is rooted.
What happened was, i tried installing TWRP (kenzo version) on my phone and so following the "instructions" in the downloaded file.
I used Flashify to flash the boot.img and then redmi_note_3_Twrp.img then the phone prompted me to reboot.
Now my phone is stuck in bootloop. The only thing i can do is to boot into Fastboot. So i tried accessing fastboot via ADB hoping to be able to some how flash the original boot.img back.
The problem i have now is that i am unable to access the phone at all even though i can go into fastboot. It wont be detected by my PC. I tried Minimal ADB and Fastboot and PdaNet.
Is there any other way for me to detect my phone and run some form of command to get it started again? Any help at all is appreciated. The phone is fairly new and i'm regretting trying to get the latest ROM for it.
I'm hoping i'll have some luck in a helpful community such as this.
Thanks guys.
Omg!! someone with the same problem as me. The same happened to me. Flashed a CWM file now am stuck in a Bootloop and ADB wont find my device either

Fret not my friend. For i have found the solution and managed to unbrick my phone. Thank the good guys at MIUI for this.
Head over to the MIUI forum and search unbrick under the Redmi Note 3 forums. I can't post the link here unfortunately
You can also thank me after you unbrick your phone.
This only applies if you are uaing the Redmi Note 3 Pro
yea unfortunately i dont use that phone. I have a Lava Iris x1 Grand (Lollipop). I am still trying to get ADB find my device

Well if that's the case i suggest googling how to get into EDM mode for ur phone and using your phone brand's flash tool to flash a new ROM onto your phone. This means you will not be able to save your phone's memory. Is your phone's bootloader unlocked?

yes it is unlocked,
i think? When i entered fastboot mode. One of my apps says bootloader enabled and when i typed 'fastboot devices' in the Minimal ADB and Fastboot its shows:
0123456789ABCDEF devices
whereas if I type 'adb devices' i just shows:
List of devices attached
The main problem is the driver, i cant get adb to find my device. I have tried the universal usb drivers like Kouch but no success. My device is listed in the Unspecified section in my computer

WINDOWS 10 RESOLUTION
My LG was undetected in fastboot in spite of every ADB driver I downloaded. I resolved this by:
1. Uninstalling all downloaded LG driver software
2. Installing LG PC SUITE!
Run the suite and hit "connect". It'll then tell you that a driver is missing and give an option to "Reinstall driver" from within itself. Once you install from the PC suite, your device will be discovered in fastboot. I have finally rooted my aristo!
Please let us know.

Hi!
Could you possibly tell me how you got the device to stay in fastboot recognition?

It should automatically remain as a recognized device.
It'll only recognize the device as a fastboot device if it is in fastboot mode in the first place.
