Ever wonder mounting your external hdd on our Redmi Note 4 as a backup storage? But default system can only recognize FAT32 drives. With this mod, you can now mount NTFS system drive to the phone .

Just flash the NTFS Enabler zip file using Twrp recovery and Reboot. Mount your external ntfs format hdd using USBOTG cable. To view your file i recommend using ES File Manager.

P/S After unmounting your external hdd using ES File Manager (unmount icon) you will get notification saying that your SD card (name) is corrupted or something like that bla bla bla, and asking you to format your hdd. Dont panic. Just ignore the error. Nothing will gonna happen because the system (MIUI) does not have an ability to recognize NTFS format while this mod make NTFS format Mountable.

P/S I dont take any credit for this. I forgot where i got it(still in this forum i guess) and i think it would be nice to share it. Moderators have the right to delete this post if i copied someone else post or against the rule. Thank you.

I am not responsible if you bricked your phone!!!

Tested on MIUI 10 latest beta. Might work on MIUI 9 or lower. Need few tester.
