My Kernel installation modification: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1OOYpjDCPeCEcB4fa9YwxjxYAEy5tyy4O
Step by step
1. Install any port rom like my PE
2. Install Magisk (I used Magisk 16)
3. Install kernel
4. Use Aex12 mod TWRP command "a1to5x"
5. Reboot
P/S: after boot the first time you should install Magisk again to get root and Magisk

When I install this kernel on my mi 5x which on Mi A1 android one port rom with april security patch, my device not boot, just stay on mi Logo, I follow your instructions properly.
Does this kernel support on stock ROM or just support on custom ROM?
thanks.

Does it only work with ported ROMs? I tried to flash it in the latest AEX for Tiffany. But it's stuck in Mi logo.

Yes, custom ported rom from MiA1.

Still not working. I've tried every possible way. Even to add the kernel and ramdisk files to my boot.img and flash the boot.img again. I'm using AospExtended V5.4 [2018-05-05].
What i tried:
* Reboot to recovery -> Wipe Data/Cache/Dalvik/System from recovery -> Flash kernel zip via TWRP -> Flash ROM & GApps -> Reboot to system
* Reboot to recovery -> Wipe Data/Cache/Dalvik/System from recovery -> Flash kernel zip via TWRP -> Terminal: a1to5x -> Reboot to recovery -> Flash ROM & GApps -> Reboot to system
* Reboot to recovery -> Wipe Data/Cache/Dalvik/System from recovery -> Flash kernel zip via TWRP -> Terminal: a1to5x -> Flash ROM & GApps -> Reboot to system
* Reboot to recovery -> Wipe Data/Cache/Dalvik/System from recovery -> Flash ROM & GApps -> Flash kernel zip via TWRP -> Terminal: a1to5x -> "installing not from a1" -> Reboot to system
* Reboot to recovery -> Wipe Data/Cache/Dalvik/System from recovery -> Flash ROM & GApps -> Flash kernel zip via TWRP -> Terminal: a1to5x -> "installing not from a1" -> Reboot to recovery -> Flash ROM again -> Reboot to system
* Unpack stock boot.img -> add franco-kernel and ramdisk files -> repack -> flash kernel via twrp & adb / fastboot -> mi logo
Any suggestions?

Wrong ROM, friend. You must use ported rom from Mi A1 instead of built one for Mi 5X. You can try my ported Pixel Experience at https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5x/how-to/8-1-port-mi5x-t3766894

Downgrade OxygenOS from 3.5.2 to 3.2.6 with Root / Xposed / Debloat

So I downgraded my Oneplus 3 from 3.5.2 to 3.2.6 and this was kind of a painful process, so I decided to share my experience with you.
If you follow this guide you will successfully downgrade from the latest Community Build to the newly released stable.
Note: Just because this worked for me, doesn't mean that it will work for you! Use this guide on your own risk and always use backups!
You'll need:
- Oneplus with OOS 3.5.2 and modified TWRP
- OxygenOS 3.2.6 Full ROM
- Latest official TWRP
- AndroidSDKSlim (needs Oneplus 3 USB drivers installed)
- SuperSU 2.78 SR1
- Xposed Framework (optional)
- Debloat Script (optional)
Downgrade:
Before you start, please create a COMPLETE backup of all your data.
You will factory reset your phone during the process.
1. Copy OOS 3.2.6 Full ROM, SuperSU, Xposed, Debloat Script to your Oneplus
2. Flash modified TWRP if you haven't already
3. Boot into modified TWRP
4. Select Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> Select all but internal storage -> Swipe to Wipe
5. Install OOS 3.2.6 Full ROM
6. Reboot into system and use the installation wizard to setup your phone (do not setup fingerprints, or any device PIN)
7. Reboot into bootloader
8. Connect your phone to a PC/Notebook
9. Extract AndroidSDKSlim to your Desktop and copy twrp-3.0.2-1-oneplus3.img into \AndroidSDKSlim\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools
10. Run CMD with admin rights and navigate to \AndroidSDKSlim\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools
11. Run "fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-1-oneplus3.img" to revert to official TWRP recovery
12. Disconnect your phone and boot into recovery
13. Dirty flash OOS 3.2.6 again (this might sound stupid but it's mandatory)
14. Still in recovery, flash SuperSU, Xposed and Debloat Script
15. Wipe Dalvik & Cache
16. Reboot into system and setup your phone
Thanks for your guide !
Can you just please detail how to revert back to a custom ROM like RR or Nuclear when we come from Oxygen OS 3.5.2 community build ?

You're welcome.
Unfortunately, I can't provide guides for procedures I never went through.
But I asume that you could just flash any Custom ROM after you completely wiped your phone in step 4. So instead of flashing OOS 3.2.6 afterwards, just flash a custom ROM. Be sure that you have all zips you need on your internal storage and a backup to revert back to, if anything goes wrong. Otherwise you will have to use ADB sideload to install a ROM.
Ok, so I have a Modified TWRP installed already. Question is If I want to flash other ROMS after wiping system,dalvik/cache,data etc. Do I have to Flash official TWRP first followed by firmware,ROM, etc?
or firmware first then ROM and lastly official TWRP?
it's quite confusing.
I made a mistake and I installed the modified recovery installed the 3.5.2 rom and before booting I decided to restore my nand backup so I flashed the official twrp recovery and now I can't go to recovery anymore and the phone doesn't boot.
I imagine I have to sideload the modified twrp again but how do I do that? How do I reboot to bootloader ?
This is the only sign of life

worked like magic. Thankyou for this education. it didnt work when i followed other folks. Much appreciated.
So it seems I have booted with 3.5.2 and modified recovery. Now my question is: can I reboot in recovery at step 7 and install the original twrp recovery? Or can I use flashify? As I don't have access to a pc
I did ok but cant use adaway do you have a fix for it?
Enviado do meu ONEPLUS A3003 através de Tapatalk
I'm trying to return to 3.2.6 after trying 3.5.2.
However, after flashing and booting 3.2.6, I boot into fastboot mode and the official TWRP refuses to flash. It reports that it's failed and then I'm left with no recovery until I reflash the modified TWRP.
I could try restoring my Nandroid backup of 3.2.6 with the modified TWRP, but I'd prefer to return to the official TWRP before doing this.
Any suggestions?
Edit: Fixed it. I downloaded the official TWRP again and it flashed. The first download must have been corrupted.
I followed a different method and successfully downgraded today to a former nandroid. I was rooted without xposed.
3.2.6 to 3.5.2 dirty flash
- installed modded twrp
- performed backup on 3.2.6
- installed modded 3.5.2 (the only that flashes in twrp)
- installed root SR1
- wiped caches only
- reboot
3.5.2 to 3.2.6 restore
- downloaded 3.2.6
- boot to modded twrp, wipe both caches, data, system
- flashed 3.2.6 stock and root SR1
- restored 3.2.6
- wiped caches
- reboot
- enjoying my LTE again
Without first installing stock, after a restore my phone was boot locking right after the oneplus white logo (capacitive buttons would light up, but it would not boot to red logo). Had to press vol down and power to force it to boot menu to select recovery and get back to twrp
Hope this helps someone, it's a bit easier than swapping twrps and no need to boot up/flash 3.2.x twice.
So if I am on the CB and want to go back to 3.2.6
I can flash 3.2.6 with the modded TWRP
Then flash Official TWRP and boot?
If I have official recovery, no root, and locked bootloader, can I downgrade from 3.5.3 to 3.2.6 without any problems, just by sideloading the zip in ADB? Thankss

I did it and it does work perfectly. Just make sure to wipe data from recovery after flashing.
I was on Comunity Build v.3.5.4. I want it back FreeDom v.1.6.
I did:
1. Flash Twrp-3.0.2-19-oneplus3.img.zip. Somebody sugested original twrp 3.0.2.1 from twrp site. For me did NOT work. Phone not booting in recovery with 3021.
2. Advanced wipe. Wipe dalvik cache/cache/system/data
3. Flash Freedom v.1.6. Clean Flash it's safer & better.
Done. System works. Recovery works.

1. If system don't boot. Reboot to fastboot.
- Flash recovery.img. If PC don't see youre phone option 2.
2. If system boots, open phone like normal.
- Extract recovery img. Put it on the TWRP file on phone sd card.
- Download Flashify from play. Open it, flash img of recovery. Open recovery to chech if it works.
Try with both recovery (3.0.2.0 or modified 3.0.2.-19). One of those will work.

OK you want to use the original OxygenOS 9.0.4?
Then go this way (all your data will be lost!):
1. in TWRP (3.3.1.0) delete all partitions (Dalvik, Cache, System, Data,...)
2. reboot into TWRP
3. format Data in Wipe - Format Data - type YES
4. reboot into TWRP
5. connect your phone with your computer and install full OxygenOS 9.0.4 zip (download from OP page)
6. reboot into TWRP and install magisk, if you want to keep TWRP. Else reboot into system
First boot takes 5-10 Minutes.
Thanks sir i will try and inform you if it work i will be thanks ful

A SIMPLER [GUIDE] For UPDATING And Keeping ROOT And TWRP

Most of the steps are from mauronofrio from his twrp guide.
To update and Keep root and twrp for OnePlus 7 Pro (you must already have root, twrp, and unlocked bootloader) :
1) Download the full 2 gb Non-Root Stock system update to the the SD card. This means download the Non-Root, Non-Patched, Non-Incremental, totally Original Stock Oxygen OS update zip through the Oxygen Updater App, and Not through the phone system update. Or you can download the totally Original Stock Oxygen OS update zip to your SD card from the OnePlus website, if it is available to download yet.
2) boot into recovery (twrp)
3) flash the Oxygen OS Stock rom (do not reboot yet!!!)
4) flash twrp (do not reboot yet!!!)
5) flash magisk, wipe dalvick cache
6) reboot
7) after start up, Reboot into recovery Again (twrp)
8) in twrp, flash magisk again
9) reboot
10) Done, go on with your merry rootin' day.
This does not wipe data, when done properly. I updated my GM1917 to 9.5.13.GM21AA using this method a few minutes ago. I kept Magisk Root and TWRP. No problems. And then I flashed me some xXx rom.
I know there was another guide for updating too, but that had too many diagrams and charts and my brain couldn't handle the pressure.
Same steps for moving back to OOS from custom ROM?

Sure! This is what I did.
I had xXx rom installed on my OnePlus 7 not pro version before I bought my OnePlus 7 pro. So, hopefully, it will be basically the same steps. Although, I am not responsible for any rats that wake from the dead as Zombie Rats and eat your phone.
1)Download the stock Oxygen OS rom to the sd card on your phone from the Oxygen OS website, or from the Oxygen Updater app, or from XDA. Just make sure it is the Stock Rom though.
2) Go into TWRP and flash your Custom Rom's Uninstaller, if there was one, that the developer made with the custom rom. (do not reboot!!!!)
3) In TWRP, flash the Magisk uninstaller. (do not reboot!!!!!)
4) In TWRP, flash the Oxygen OS Stock Rom.
4) Reboot.
The Custom Rom, Magisk, and TWRP will No Longer be on your phone.

Clearing up TWRP ambiguity versions + rooting MIUI pie

There is confusion over which recoveries to install for Redmi 6 (cereus).
Failure to install the correct TWRP will result in a hard brick with no chance of restoring the device without an authorised account or going to a Mi Service Centre.
If you are currently on the MIUI Oreo ROM:
You may ONLY use TWRP 3.3.0 OR 3.2.3-0 OR 3.2.3-1
The recovery by either TWRP or LR.Team is both ok.
If you are on the PIE rom:
You MUST use TWRP 3.3.1 or OrangeFox Recovery. R10.0-2 nocrypt Pie is confirmed to be working by me.
To root MIUI pie, follow the instructions in this post from 4PDA. This is because you will be unable to decrypt data.
You need to create an account to download the patched boot.img. You can either create one yourself or ask me or someone else to PM you with the boot.img. I will not attach it to this thread because it is not my work. The files have now been attached. See post below.
All credits go towards the respective recovery authors and 4pda
OK here are the boot files from 4pda
You MUST follow the instructions from this guide: http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=907017&st=5020#entry87853533

I did something wrong just don't know what
I tried with OrangeFox and when rebooted in recovery the phone would not turn on and just vibrates.
I was lucky because I just needed to open and remove the battery to get the phone back up.
So just to get it right (please correct me if i'm wrong):
Starting from unlocked MIUI stock with android 8.1 base:
0) Download patched boot image from OP
1)Download TWRP 3.3.0 OR 3.2.3-0 OR 3.2.3-1
2)Download Magisk 19.3 Stable (would the latest stable also work https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445?)
3)Download official Pie Rom: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.4.4.0.PCGMIXM/miui_HM6Global_V10.4.4.0.PCGMIXM_99304098f7_9.0.zip
4)Enter Fastboot -> Flash TWRP
5)Enter TWRP -> Flash the Pie Rom -> Flash patched boot.img -> flash Magisk
6)Boot into system -> Leave the device alone for 2-3 minutes and install Magisk Manager
7)Download -> TWRP 3.3.1 or OrangeFox Recovery. R10.0-2
8)Enter Fastboot -> Flash TWRP/OrangeFox
would this be the correct procedure?
cheers

?????????????????????
Why don't you skip steps 1-3 and just use XiaoMi Flash to install 10.4.4.0 via Fastboot by 'saving user data', then follow the instructions here? XiaoMiFlash will overwrite your recovery with the default so there is no risk of a brick. Then Flash TWRP Pie, flash boot img, flash magisk.
As I have said, you will brick your device. If you have TWRP Oreo, and then you install MIUI Pie, you will brick your device. You are doing EXACTLY what I told you not to do!
It didn't come out as clearly as you think. maybe it's my own deficiency.
btw whenever i flashed any update via TWRP the recovery got replaced by stock recovery as well.
(I don't tell this to call into question that your suggested way of doing was the most safe way.)
Is XiaoMi Flash available for linux as well?
edit: do you know if the latest magisk stable 20.0 would also work?

I'm not sure - I have never flashed any MIUI ROM in TWRP. It seems normal though - the updaterscript probably tells TWRP to overwrite itself.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/tool-miflash-linux-t3708847 It's a bit complicated
This work for me :
1 - Install Pie Rom https://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.4.4.0.PCGMIXM/miui_HM6Global_V10.4.4.0.PCGMIXM_99304098f7_9.0.zip with TWRP 3.3.1 https://mifirm.net/downloadtwrp/62 or with another method.
2 - Shut down the phone , go to fastboot (Vol - and power), plug to computer.
3 - From the computer fastboot flash boot boot_10.4.4.0_R6_mgsk_193.img (see the second post of this thread).
4 - fastboot flash recovery recovery-TWRP-3.3.1-0602-REDMI6-CN-wzsx150.img
5 - Recovery (Vol+ and power)
6 - Install Magisk 19.3
Reboot and enjoy
Hi, currently I'm on stable China mui v10.4.3.0. Do you have boot.img on that v10.4.3.0. Currently link only provide boot.img for v10.4.2.0 for the china version. If no how do I get those, can I just backup them from twrp, Then create patched boot img with those backup boot? Thanks

ThanX ! ! !
This work for me :good:
EDIT:
The flashlight and the camera does not work after flash the boot boot_10.4.4.0_R6_mgsk_193.img [emoji848]
Does anyone else have a similar problem?
View attachment 4862683
I have the camera and flashlight problem too. Any fix?
Unfortunately, I didn't find any solution.
Currently, my phone does not start, has a black screen and vibrates all the time. I can't run it in any way
EDIT:
Hi.
I was able to bring the phone to life. Get instructions on how to get to the battery https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9FH88b16bc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fAflA4UKLLY. In orangeFox recovery I checked the flashlight, it works.
That makes us two. My phone is unusable at the moment. I thought the root was responsible for the camera bugs, I uninstalled magisk, the bug was still there. I tried to reinstall MIUI 10.4.4 ang got an error. I've wiped everything including vendor and system.
I clean dalvik and cache and for now the phone is working even, after flash the patch boot.img

Hard brick caused by flashing wrong TWRP is indeed able to get solved with unplugging the battery.
Miui v11 boot.img please

Stuck on Mi Logo

Hi All,
i tried few methods and even search through the first 10 pages "Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers", but still couldn't find an explanation.
Details
Phone: xiao mi 9 global version
bootloader: unlocked
TWRP: 3.3.1-0 , and still able to access now.
Phenomenons:
1. miui 11 -> unlock -> install TWRP -> format data(/sdcard/ is encrpted), flash custom rom(failed) -> flash back stock rom -> working fine
2. phone is working fine after flash back to original rom( downgraded to miui10)
Unlock bootloader -> sign out MI Account -> factory reset -> install Twrp -> /sdcard/ is not encrypted. then install https://forum.xda-developers.com/Mi-9/development/rom-evolution-x-2-1-t3970831 -> boot loop xiao mi logo -> go to twrp found /sdcard/ encrypted -> format data -> install again -> still boot loop xiao mi logo.
Can i ask what did i missed? i still not able to run any custom rom(android 10,9).
