This isn't true. Only the China version (ie. the version sold only for the China market) doesn't have GMS. The Global version still has GMS. You can even get the MIUI China features that were removed from the Global ROM if you install the Xiaomi.EU ROM (only available for Snapdragon phones, though).

What operating system do you have on your PC? Normally, if you have an internet-connected PC, it should automatically download the fastboot drivers when you plug your phone in fastboot mode to your PC. If you're still having problems with the fastboot drivers, then you might need to install it...

What phone is that? SP Flash Tool is not currently compatible with the Cloudfone Thrill Power N, and if you try, you will probably brick your device. If what you want is simply to remove FRP, maybe this little trick will work for you...

The easiest way to get out of fastboot mode is to use "fastboot reboot" while connected to a PC — check my post above for the details. Otherwise, you can exit fastboot by pressing and holding the power button for 10 to 15 seconds until the phone restarts.

Chsr When you hold down the power button, it doesn't reboot at all? The screen doesn't turn off? You may need to hold it down for 10 secs or more.

This specific tutorial is for the Cloudfone Thrill Power N only, as the provided boot.img used in this tutorial is from the Thrill Power N stock firmware. However, the procedure used in this tutorial can apply to any phone that (a) runs Android 5.0+, (b) has an unlocked bootloader, and (c) has...

Sorry for the delay. I was trying to get a custom recovery working on this phone, but the auto-tools I used to try and build TWRP didn't work (and sent me into a bootloop). Looks like the recovery partition size on this phone is rather limited, so I might need to manually compile TWRP to try and...

Can you give me the build number on that phone (Settings > About phone)? Seems like there are a lot of CM Flare S6 versions, and I need to be sure which one that is. Also other details that can help me identify that phone, like specs (eg. RAM, etc.). Thanks.

I'll try to keep an eye out for that firmware.

If you have the stock boot.img for the CM Flare S6, then yes. Just use the stock boot.img for your device with the steps above. DON'T use another device's boot.img as you may brick your phone.

This guide will help you to root your Cloudfone Thrill Power N (Android 7.0 Nougat) using Magisk systemless root. This method does not require a custom recovery, but it does require a PC with adb and fastboot, and a phone with an unlocked bootloader. But don't worry, I will also include...

"Orange State" means that your bootloader is unlocked. It can be safely ignored. As for your bootloop, you'll probably need to flash the stock boot.img. Here's what you can do: Requirements Stock boot.img. You can either download it with the firmware above, or if you just want the boot.img...

Within the next couple of hours, at the most .I was actually in the middle of typing it, but was called away by an errand. I'll finish it when I get back.

Yes, I have a root guide for the thrill power n coming soon.

Here's the stock firmware for the Cloudfone Thrill Power N. Included in the zip is the scatter file for use with SP Flash Tool, etc. This zip is NOT flashable in recovery; you will need to extract the contents. Firmware: https://mega.nz/#!7NUVWJxI!hEypHCf0KTJxMpBzpKn1LlpK5GY9jiJjNUbomQ72BvQ...
