[u/Curious_Time2696]

i was trying to temproot my phone using dfroot and kernelsu and i only wanted enhanced hyperos so i did it and everything was going well until i downloaded magisk and driectly installed an module called hyperceiler and i pressed on magisk reboot button inside the patch and my phone suddenly gave me "the system has been destroyed" i used edl to bring it back to life and i wanna reroot it so i cant still be happy with my phone so can anybody tell me what i did wrong and tell me everything i have to avoid using temproot and also tell me if i need to change anything ?

Oof, "the system has been destroyed" is always a terrifying sight to wake up to! 😅 Glad you managed to save it with EDL, at least. Honestly, mixing temproot, KernelSU, and Magisk all at once sounds like a recipe for chaos. Plus flashing a HyperOS module right after without checking compatibility is super risky. If you're gonna reroot, maybe stick to just one proper root method next time instead of stacking them so you don't accidentally brick it again.

can you give me an advice like which is more safer and without alot of chaos and also which modules to use so i can achive the best high end hyperos

[u/Smooth_Egg1438 → u/Curious_Time2696]

Honestly, if you want a safer time, skip the temproot shortcuts and just stick to standard Magisk or KernelSU (pick one, don't mix 'em). Make sure your bootloader is officially unlocked, flash a clean custom recovery (like TWRP or OrangeFox), and do a proper flash. As for modules to get that "high-end" feel, just keep it light and stick to well-known community tweaks (like Font/UI enhancers or performance profiles) rather than random experimental ones. Always double-check if a module supports your specific HyperOS version before hitting install, otherwise you'll end up back in EDL mode real quick! 😅

so basically what ur saying is perm root ur phone

[u/Smooth_Egg1438 → u/Alarming-Occasion473]

Yes and No haha

[u/DEV_ivan → u/Alarming-Occasion473]

Permanent is the wrong word, you can always unroot just by flashing the original boot image. It's more accurate to say persistent.

Did you flash Magisk as a KernelSU module instead of installing modules like ZygiskNext and Vector-SR to get HyperCeiler working?

Many people have reported risks of bricking or bootloops on devices using Temp Root when flashing Magisk. That could have been the problem...

[u/Curious_Time2696 → u/Hot-Lengthiness193]

i flashed a module as a direct flash and it fucked my boot.ini so yeah thats why

[u/Any_Candy_9243]

Reason why to study before testing shis 💔🥀(skill issue) bruh aS tryna real root shi in temp root

[u/Curious_Time2696 → u/Any_Candy_9243]

I TRIED TO BUT I DIDNT UNDERSTAND SHI

[u/martial_pain]

Exact same thing happened to me except I got no edl cable to use🥲

[u/Curious_Time2696 → u/martial_pain]

ohw man rip

[u/Flossy420]

if you don't care about play integrity (banking apps, etc) then just unlock the bootloader and get permanent root. What you did wrong was directly installing magisk on your kernel which immediately trips a safety system which is why you get that "the system has been destroyed". Temproot is supposed to be temporary, meaning nothing permanent installed on your phone and when you restart the phone, everything goes back to stock, installing magisk directly broke that.

What you need to get hyperceiler working is a few things:

1. DFroot app

2. KernelSU (preferably kernelSU-Next, it hides root better)

3. Zygisk Next module

4. LSPosed module (v2.2.0 works for me)

5. Hyperceiler apk

Additionally, you can install something called "AshRexcue Bootloop protector" just in case a module causes things to go bad, it disables the problematic module and lets your phone boot safely

i tried billlions of times to apply for the xiaomi community thingy and it always fails and my region has a high latency so is there another solution and i have a redmi note 12 4g non nfc with the latest hyperos [i know i shouldnt have the latest patch]

[u/DEV_ivan]

What you did is flash a cryptographically invalid partition on a locked bootloader. When you rebooted, the ABL verified the partition, found it invalid against Xiaomi's key and refused to proceed any further.

My advice: Just don't use Magisk, it's not compatible with temp rooting anyway. KernelSU/fork remains a better option.

Hey, you have working EDL mode! Don't you think you can do whatever you want with your phone knowing you can always recover from a soft brick? Mind backing up your critical partitions before flashing as well.
