In the cap they are under spolerRecovery as well as installation instructions. I tried several, settled on this Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 - Official firmware MIUI 7 (OS 5.0) (Post Moshonka # 42912301) There is nothing difficult, the main thing is to install the driver, and everything will be good. The only thing I can add is that I did after all the preparations in the flash tuls, clicked Donload and then connected the phone .

We go into the recovery in one of the ways.
1. Method Clamp the power (on) and volume + at the same time, as soon as the logo appears, release on, volume + hold. Your recovery will load.
2. Method Update --->click three dots at the top (...) --->Choose "Reboot in Recovery"

3. Method only for MiuPro and copyrighted localized firmware from Lepi and frost_ua Hold down the on / off key --->reboot --->And there will be a Recovery item.

Go to Backup --->put a tick NVRAM, other daws can be removed-->and move the slider to the right.

We find the TWRP folder on the device and save it away.

Attention!!! I recommend this method for updating the firmware, but not the second method either for switching from weekly to global or from Miupro to EU.
Well, here we come to the most interesting: the firmware of our phone.
At the moment, the firmware has appeared the sea .... alongside the localized official ones that are under the spool of the firmware, custom firmware from many romodels also appearedXiaomi Redmi Note 2 - Custom firmware (OS 5.X.X)
We find any firmware you like (for custom, official, and localized firmware, the installation principle is the same), but only for installation fromrecovery
After you have downloaded one of the firmware, it is advisable to delete the folder from it.recovery and can be installed in the phone. Otherwise, after flashing the phone, your Custom recovery may change to Stock It mostly concerns only original firmware, it was corrected for localized ones and TWRP does not fly off anymore.

As for the phone firmware itself in MIUI, this is done as simply as possible, in general, 5+ for that.
1. Rename our firmware file toupdate (only for stock recovery) and transfer it to the phone's memory.If you have TWRP Custom recovery, it is not necessary to rename.
2. We are looking for a blue "Update" arrow on the phone and click on it.

3. A window appears with the update, after the system reports that there are no updates, click the three dots at the top.

4. A secondary menu will appear, select "Select firmware file" in it.

5. Next, open the explorer with our files, scroll to the bottom and select our firmware file.

After that, the phone will reboot and install everything.

Attention!!! When flashing such methods, there may be a problem with Gaps (Google services), and frankly speaking there remain a lot of software tails set by the seller. But this is not fatal ....)))

Choose a sectionWipe --->Advanced wipe and put a tick on Data , Cache and Delvic cache after which we do the swipe to the right.

After completion of the operation, restart the phone. Within 10-15 minutes, the phone will begin to reinstall all applications.
In the end this should work


If flashingxiaomi.eu_multi_hermes , do not pull the phone, it seems that it seems to hang on the screen saver, but it is not so, give it 15-20 minutes to install all the applications.

In my opinion, this method is more suitable for updating the firmware, to a more current version.
Attention!!! If you still have any errors, or the applications have disappeared (player drain, etc.) then flip it in 2 ways

Attention!!! This method will delete all your installed software and files, before storing, save your data !!!
In this way, I am flashing when I switch, for example, from MiuPro to AOSP or to Xiaomi.eu or back.
If you just bought a phone and decided to immediately flash it to a more current firmware version, then you can immediately proceed with the firmware process.
If you have already used the phone (installed applications, made system settings, etc.) then before flashing you need to make backup of your system, for example, the programTitanium backup or built-in tools in Miui. Otherwise, you will have to reinstall and configure everything. And do not forget to transfer this backup to an SD card or computer.

1. Copy the firmware file to the SD card or USB flash drive, formatted in FAT32
2. We go into the recovery in one of the ways.
1. Method Clamp the power (on) and volume + at the same time, as soon as the logo appears, release on, volume + hold. Your recovery will load.
2. Method Update --->click three dots at the top (...) --->Choose "Reboot in Recovery"

3. Method only for MiuPro and copyrighted localized firmware from Lepi and frost_ua Hold down the on / off key --->reboot --->And there will be a Recovery item.

3. Choose a Wipe item --->Advanced Wipe and in the next window put a tick as on the screen, then do svayp in the right.

p \ s If you checked the System, some installation errors will fail to install ... In order to avoid this, you need to restart the recovery ... and then go to step 4
4. Go back to the main menu and go to Install. In the top line we select the place where our firmware is located.
1. item "phone memory"
2. item "SD card"
3. item "USB flash drive" connected via OTG cable
Confirm with a button"OK"

5. Find our firmware file, click on it, and confirm with the right swipe

6. After the completion of the firmware, windows will appear where you can first make a Wipe and then Reboot.
7. We are waiting for the completion of the installation of the firmware !!!!

After a successful firmware, like many users, I put one of my favorite programs.Titanium backup https: //play.google.co…s.TitaniumBackup&hl=en The application I really like, very often helps out.
I advise you not to regret 250 rubles and buy the full version.
In Xiaomi.eu and MiuPro, the root-rights already seem to be there, but at the same time there are none ....)))Titanium backup not fully functioning , we need one more root-rights ...: sveta:
The symbolic dances begin again with a tambourine around the fire. : russian:
1. We start from the marketSuperSU https: //play.google.co...hainfire.supersu&hl=en
2. Install and run

3. We press continue, climbs the next window

4. Clickfine after which an error appears

Do not get scared, pour pivasik and continue the ritual dance ....: indeec:
5. We are looking for the Security application on the phone and click it.

6. Get out the firmware interface where there are a lot of different settings. Select "Permissions"

7. There is another window with 3 points. Choose thereROOT access

8. Next, click the switch to the "active" position.

9. After that another confirmation window will appear, wait a few seconds and confirm.

10. Now run SuperSU, repeat steps 3 and 4.

The result should be like this

11. Click "ok" and overload the phone.
ThereafterSuperSU will intercept all programs that require ROOT access
Uraaa happened: clap:
In my opinion, a very strange work of the built-in Ruth, it is quite possible that in the future they will finish inSuperSU will not be necessary.
On the "Permissions" tab, you can still configure the add. options
1.Auto Start Here you just move the slider near the programs that should be launched with the phone, but something seems to me that it is also not finished .....
2. Permissions I personally chop off this function, as I constantly pop up windows with queries. You can turn it off right away by clicking on the gear in the top.

What does not suit me at the moment on the firmware Hermes and MiuPro
1. The photo attached to the contact is not loaded, more precisely, once, once, normally, if not.
2. After the conversation, sometimes the call becomes like an "unknown number", which is a glitch did not understand
3. Well, the phone does not recognize the numbers starting at 8, all numbers must be through +7. To rename, you can use https: //play.google.co...7.Change8ToPlus7&hl=en
If the contacts on the SIM card, copy to the phone, rename, copy back.

Custom Recovery crashes after flashing.
The decision prompted all the samemasslakoff . Open the firmware file and delete the recovery folder, we are stitching.

After flashing the screen began to flicker
Go to Settings --->Screen--->Tone and contrast, set the contrast "by default"
You can also remove the yellowness of the screen (someone who is very annoying).


Does not download apps from the market via 3G / 4G mobile network
Looking for download icon --->click three dots (...) at the top-->settings-->Mobile Internet and expose without restrictions.


How to enter the recovery?
1. Method Clamp the power (on) and volume + at the same time, as soon as the logo appears, release on, volume + hold. Your recovery will load.
2. Method Update --->click three dots at the top (...) --->Choose "Reboot in Recovery"

3. Method MiuPro only Hold down the on / off key --->reboot --->And there will be a Recovery item

I installed Sberbank Online, but it does not work completely.

It often happens that when the device is reconnected, it is not detected. Then you need to delete in the registry editor
the "UpperFilters" parameter in the [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Control \ Class \ {EEC5AD98-8080-425F-922A-DABF3DE3F69A}] branch and after that connect the device.

I bought a phone 16 \ 32 GB and there is only 2 GB of memory
Most likely you have the firmware from the seller .... We put more relevant to your taste ....)))

Ok google service Is it possible?
Yes, in full, we put it from the markethttps: //play.google.co...lequicksearchbox&hl=enand thishttps: //play.google.co...android.launcher&hl=en

You can also use the program Google installerhttps://yadi.sk/d/y2WGNHlGj7QDWDownload, install, run, and select in it what we need to download.

Is there an unlock phone double tap on the screen?
Currently no. may be added in future versions of the firmware.

What is the maximum memory card size supported?

I flew offIMEIwhat to do?
1. Method Easier, but works until the next flashing Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 - Official firmware MIUI 7 (OS 5.0) (Post Baston # 43035964)
2. Method More complicated but reliable. Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 - Official firmware MIUI 7 (OS 5.0) (Post Baston # 43099390) thanks for both ways Baston

What do I miss in the MIUI shell?

1. In my opinion, the standard dialer, very much flawed and not functional, I would like a little more functionality from him. On some firmware versions, there is also no quick search in Russian.
Therefore, without hesitation, I installed this application here.https: //play.google.co…m.hb.dialer.free&hl=enI think many will like it.
There is a customizable ability to turn on the call, svaypom (left / right) to the contact, and you can configure different configurations for the call list, contacts and favorite. And also not only a call \ message, but also SIM1 \ SIM2, which is very convenient for a phone with 2 SIM cards. Plus, a completely customizable interface.

2. Well, the standard keyboard also did not work for me, I replaced it with https: //play.google.co...tek.smartinputv5&hl=en

3. On the phone there is the possibility of a photo / video broadcast on the TV, this function did not work for me with my telecom. By setting https: //play.google.co…anor.amspersonal&hl=en it all worked.
