[GUIDE] Xiaomi Qin F21 Pro Custom Firmware, Root, Playstore Certified
- Thread starter Jbazt_katuforzs

I know but is there a way to do it from engineering options? Or maybe a way from the twrp?
Added Infos:
The playback captured videos from the stocked camera app seems broken.
This is a nice alternative camera app that works

Haven't explored it. But i doubt.
most SMS connection uses GSM. If your NETWORK SETTING is set to WCDMA or LTE only, the SMS frequency wont really work. Make sure you choose GSM in Engineering Mode NETWORK SELECTING.

Thank you very much, I've followed the instructions and it's working.
I have a question, if i want to unroot my phone by uninstalling magisk manager, does my phone will work properly??
Thank you for this! Right now I need help because I'm stuck because of an error in flashing the scatter file from the firmware folder (please check image). I heavily rely on google apps and services because of work and I really wanted this to work on my device. I really appreciate it if you can help me. Thanks a lot!

Thanks for the reply. I started everything from the beginning and used 7zip for extracting. I'm positive that I didn't miss a step from the guide, but still the same error is showing from the flash tool. :'(
What phone are you using? What variant? This is for 64gb qin f21 pro (MTK SOC). There's also a qin F21 PRO PLUS
(unisoc soc). This will not work on the PRO PLUS
Or your bootloader is still LOCKED
This unit is F21 Pro 4/64. I think the bootloader is already unlocked too. I got this unit from here. https://shopee.ph/Xiaomi-Qin-F21-Pr...GPS-Duoqin-Translator-i.508710371.14038237662

Nope. If its from shoppee, its still locked bootloader. The image you show is just the 1st step on unlocking the bootloader.
I see. Thanks for the info po
Hello. I tried unlocking the bootloader using this guide: https://xdaforums.com/t/tools-mod-scripts-mlgmxyysds-qin-f21-pro-unlock-tool.4368277/page-4, but instead, my device got dm_verify corrupt and won't work anymore, always restarting every five seconds. Is there any fix for this? Please help :'(
You need to uninstall magisk inside the app first then uninstall the magisk app to fully unroot the phone. All modules in magisk installed be gone in system as well. However the fingerprint hack for playstore certification should remain.
And yes, the phone should run normal still even you uninstall magisk
does this proccess work to root and put on google to an ungoogled (but global) 64/4gb version

7TUTORIAL UPDATE!
MY DEVICE IS 4/64 with unlocked bootloader
Unofficial Qin F21 Pro (MTK chipset) firmware, version 1.1.1 multilanguage.
Thanks to @redsat, @gaguga and the whole 4pda community.
Install at your own risk and responsibility.
For testing purposes only, will be updated or changed if necessary.
Use SP flash tool for flashing, bootloader should be unlocked on the phone (via @mlgmxyysd tool or Ubuntu boot image). Having the full own ROM dump is highly recommended in advance.
Changes:
-Removed chinese applications
-Decrypted data partition
-APK installer with no restrictions
-System partitions are writable
TWRP recovery 3.6.0_11-0 is added
(In TWRP the phone memory is accessible via path: /data/media/0)
WARNING: FLASHING THE FIRMWARE WILL WIPE EVERYTHING! I SUGGEST BACKUP IMPORTANT FILES BEFORE DOING THIS. I WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE IF YOUR PHONE DONT BOOT, SOFT/HARD BRICKED! THIS TUTORIAL IS TO DO AT YOUR OWN RISK!
ALL FILES REQUIRED FOR WINDOWS https://www.mediafire.com/file/tl8hv77gl0vo6sd/qin_f21_pro_mtk.zip/file

- Congrats! You now have chinese free apps firmware with TWRP Installed
- If it wont boot "DEVICE ENCRYPTED", just go to TWRP and FORMAT DATA then reboot (it should boot to system now)
- transfer "boot_2.img" phone or transfer it to a USB Flashdrive (more easier to locate) (FOR 3/32 VARIANTS TRY TO USE THIS BOOT IMAGE BOOT.IMG 3/32)
- boot to TWRP once again
- go to device path /data/media/0 or USB storage path using OTG
- FLASH IMAGE "boot_2.img" to boot partition to fix the device twrp path to /sdcard (IMPORTANT! boot is an IMAGE FILE not ZIP FILE. by default, TWRP is set to check for zip file and will n0t se IMAGE FILES in the directories. YOU NEED TO TAP THE INSTAL IMAGE BUTTON so image files will appear)
- reboot and proceed to installing ROOT and Google services
* + heart button (upper left) + power on. once douqin logo appears press up button + power on immediately. TWRP first boot is in Russian language. just change it to english change twrp language

HOW TO FIX NO/DELAYED INSTALLED APPS NOTIFICATIONS
Thanks for JawadEly for the info, it works!
1. Install all your apps
2. Install terminal emulator app and system app remover app from playstore (this will give you the apk path you want to systemize)
3. open magisk, search and intall "APP SYSTEMIZER" module then reboot.
4. open terminal emulator app
6. type "su" and grant the permission
7. type "systemize"
8. You need to set Selinux = TRUE by choosing "s"
9. once its set to TRUE, you can now systemize any app provided you know the apk path of the apps installed.
10. enter "3", here is where you put the apk path of the app you want to systemize
11. to get the apk path of installed app open the "system app remover" app you installed.
12. go to user apps and LONG PRESS an app you wish to systemize.
13. copy the apk path then go to terminal emulator and paste it. Type "1" to confirm.
14. Go to settings > apps list > clear storage of that app you transfer as system app
15. done! just repeat the proceedure for each app you wish to fix the notifications.
BEWARE! Be careful using system app remover. Don't uninstall system apps required for the android system. You might end up in a bootloop. This app is also used to remove bloatwares of OEM firmwares.

2I bought a cracked version of the 4/64 version of Xiaomi Qin F21 Pro unlocked bootloader, rooted, and with preinstalled fully working Google Playstore and Play services running on the official firmware 2.0.8.
But lately there's a very nice update development from 4PDA website for the device! It took me a while before I made it work and a lot of trial and error.
I will make a full detailed easy to follow step by step tutorials on how to do it with all the links for the files required.
The results will be:
- A fully converted v1.1.1 custom firmware without the chinese apps
- TWRP Recovery
- fully rooted
- certified playstore and google services fully working
- THE PROCESS COULD ALSO UNBRICKED THE PHONE
Requirements:
- PC
- UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER Xiaomi Qin F21 Pro (MTK soc) V1.0+ V2.0+ (4/64gb ONLY)
- Files (will be provided)
- working brain

...........TUTORIALS SOON2Hi I used these instructions for a F21 Pro 32GB
Thank very much! it worked.
However I spent 10 hours to get playstore to work
I am a iphone guy, so android and rooting android was new to me.
Several things can be clearer. I will list them here to help others.
Step 4) before step 4 you need to have your wifi password, otherwise you cannot proceed.
also the screen shots found in later pages, showing the differece between "installed" and not "installed" helped alot.
"the apps" should say "the app" (I initially thought that all apk's need patching and wasted a lot of time trying to do it)
Step 5) as I have 32gb I used the BOOT.IMG 3/32 in the initial step 13)
it could be made clear that if this is the case you need to patch use this file thought, not "boot_2.img".
Step 8) it could be made clearer that you are patching a file and the resulting file will be located on the phone.
WARNING: AFTER SEARCING FOR AGES I FOUND THE PATCHED FILE IN A DIFFERENT LOCATION. main "DOWNLOADS" (not /sd...) so the message in Magisk had the wrong location.
14) open Terminal emulator app. Instructions did not work. after "su" there was no "grant" message, it opened up Magisk, and the other actions did nothing.
After many guesses, I tried unhiding Magisk, rebooting, and then 14) worked. I then rebooted, and re-hid Magisk
so the instructions to hide magisk is premature, in my case and caused it to fail.
The above took me 10 hours to realise.
Got there in the end though.
Thank you2
what i did to fix the notification issue is to install the app as an system app, i used magisk module called systemizer.
have a look on youtube you will find an tutorial.
