Root Xiaomi with Magisk Without TWRP – Perform root on the Android smartphone is one way we can be free to modify Android.

Because if the smartphone does not have root access, then all of our access will be restricted. In this tutorial, I will share how to root easily and safely so that users can still get operating system updates via OTA (Over The Air).

The usual tutorials that we often encounter to root on Xiaomi phones are required to use custom recovery like the TWRP (Team Win Recovery Project). But unfortunately, if we use custom recovery, we will no longer get an operating system update.

In this tutorial, I will share how to root using Magisk. What are the benefits of using Magisk instead of SuperSU?

Systemless, meaning Magisk will not change the system partition on Android, unlike SuperSU where the system partition on your smartphone is changed.

So that if you root using Magisk it can safely hide your root status, so you can install applications that prohibit from being rooted, for example, banking applications. Besides that, you can get an OS (Operation System) update via OTA, bypassing the Safety net. and so forth.
