Pre-Requirements

• You need to unlock the bootloader on your Poco M3 Pro 5G
• Your phone should have a battery juice of more than 60% at least.
• Keep a backup of your device data at first. Therefore, if anything goes wrong, you can get back the important data.

• You will also require a PC/Laptop and a USB cable in order to connect your device with the computer.
• You should download all the necessary files, tools, and drivers from below accordingly.

1. How to Extract and Patch Boot.image using Magisk?

• First of all, download and extract the ROM to your PC.
• Attach your device via USB cable and copy only the boot.img file from the extracted folder to your device storage
• Launch Magisk Manager. When a popup appears asking to install Magisk, select INSTALL and choose install again.
• Tap on “Patch Boot Image File”.
  

  

• Navigate to internal storage and select your phone’s boot image that you transferred earlier.
• Wait for a couple of seconds. Magisk will start patching the boot image.
• Once the boot image has been patched, copy the “patched_boot.img” from the internal storage and replace it in the same extracted ROM folder on your PC.

Now you can follow the second step to flash the patched boot image file.

2. Steps To Install the Patched Boot Image on Poco M3 Pro 5G
