9T Pro Global booting to Fastboot after Viper4Android Uninstall...Please Help!!! - Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe

Hey all.
Currently running 11.0.1.0 Global Official on my phone. Installed via OrangeFox Incremental update method.
I had some Magusk modules installed before the update. All of them worked after except Viper4Android. So I decided to uninstall.
I selected reboot via Magisk and now the phone constantly goes to Fastboot!!
I manually booted into recovery and decided to wipe Dalvik and Cache. During this process it shows 'NO ROM' under 'Device: Raphael'
I don't know how on earth this happened and can't seem to re-install the rom as it gives me following error:
Detected MIUI Update Package
Support MIUI Incremental Package Status: Enabled
E3003: Can't install this package over newer build.
Update process ended with ERROR: 7
Are you installing onto the correct device?
Guys please help. I really don't want to do a clean install as I have lots os important sms that I haven't backed up.
Please help

Error 7 is because you're probably flashing another region ROM. Unzip the rom and find the Update script file, edit with notepad and rename all lines reading "Raphael" to "Raphaelin" or bice versa. Rezip and flash.

Hey. Thanks for the reply. However this is the same file I used to upgrade from 10 to 11 in the first place.
Also this is the full ROM I believe as I do not see any update script inside the zip.
This is the one I downloaded: https://bigota.d.miui.com/V11.0.1.0.QFKMIXM/miui_RAPHAELGlobal_V11.0.1.0.QFKMIXM_7b25321468_10.0.zip

There should be update script file. Otherwise you'll have to flash a fastboot ROM with miflash and in there maybe try to KEEP DATA and see if it boots

Hey again. So I decided to go the fastboot ROM route with keep data option. My data partition was left intact (THANK YOU!) however my sms and call logs were only restored from the latest cloud backup available (not latest unfortunately).
Thanks again for your help.
Just wanted to check with you. Can I install OrangeFox directly onto this phone now? I recall having issues the first time I tried. Ended up having to install a specific version of TWRP made for the 9T Pro Global version and then install OrangeFox via that.

You'll have to format data i think. Otherwise try, this is the latest for raphael https://files.orangefox.tech/OrangeFox-Stable/raphael/OrangeFox-R10.0_8-Stable-raphael.zip
Unzip the file, then take the recovery.img file from it and FASTBOOT FLASH RECOVERY *RECOVERYNAME*. Once target is sent, press and hold volume up and power button together, once it vibrates release the power button and keep holding volume up, it will reboot to orangefox. Once it boots, copy the orangefox zip file and flash it again, now it will be permanent, then go to manage storage and format data (that where you type YES).
What I'm not sure is if it will boot without wiping data. Otherwise try skipping the data wipe and just flash orangefox twice like above

Ok this is really weird. I sent across the latest OrangeFox via Fastboot. Booted into it. Installed again via Zip. It rebooted back into Orangefox. Wiped data. Then re-started phone and set everything up (second time today :crying.
I then downloaded magisk and booted into recovery to install it only to find out it's back to stock!!???
I really don't want to wipe my data again so any idea as to which TWRP works on this phone? I just tried the mauronofrio one but it boots to a black screen :crying:

Flash magisk before you setup your stuff, magisk will stop it from restoring back to stock recovery.

Ok thanks. But are you aware of any TWRP that works on the Global 9t Pro with Android Q?

Yes that of Maurofanio or something like that is his name, it's in here.

Chinese Mi8 to Global Instructions

So you bought a shiny new Chinese model, and want to convert to Global or EU version?
I had bought the Chinese version also, and couldn't find a solid method for converting to the Global or EU ROMs. I was worried i would brick my device like so many others! After finding bits and pieces in lots and lots of xda threads, MIUI forums, and finding some mis-information, i decided to put a working method all in one place!
**WARNING***
I am NOT responsible for anything that goes wrong or you have issues with the information i have provided, it worked for me and proceed at your own risk!
FIRST
Unlock your bootloader locked Chinese version phone! (It's a LONG wait)
see official unlock page here-->http://en.miui.com/thread-246705-1-1.html
After Bootloader Unlock
1.) Download TWRP from the page here-->https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-8/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-3-0-mi-8-t3837745
-- RENAME YOUR DOWNLOADED RECOVERY FILE TO "recovery.img"
2.) Download the DM Verity Disabler here-->https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=3700668719832238534
3.) Download the Region Fix here-->https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=1322778262904000068
4.) Download a Global ROM / EU ROM of your choice!
Installing the TWRP Recovery:
Make sure you have a working copy of FASTBOOT on your computer compatible with Mi8 (I used the one in the directory from the Bootloader UNLOCK program)
1.) Copy all of your downloaded files to the Bootloader Unlocker main directory (or a directory with the Fastboot.exe file)
2.) Open a DOS shell prompt on your computer and change the directory to the Bootloader Unlock directory (or Fastboot.exe directory)
3.) Put your phone in to Fastboot Mode (Turn on phone and hold the Volume Down while also holding Power Button)
4.) Connect your phone via USB cable to your computer
5.) In your DOS shell prompt enter this between the quotes "fastboot.exe boot recovery.img"
6.) After your phone boots up with the TWRP, copy the recovery.img file to the main directory of your SDCard
(Your recovery should allow you to open your phones internal storage on your computer)
7.) Install from the TWRP recovery menu (choose IMG file on bottom right, and select the recovery.img from your storage, and choose the Recovery partition to flash to)
8.) After successful TWRP flashing to your recovery partition, Reboot to RECOVERY
Preparing & Flashing Your Downloaded ROM:
1.) Format your data (must be done from the wipe directory where you have to type the word "yes")
2.) after the format, once again reboot to your RECOVERY
3.) Copy your chosen ROM zip file, recovery.img file, Region Fix file, and DM Verity disabler file to your internal phone storage
4.) Install your chosen ROM (flash through TWRP)
5.) Flash your recovery.img file again! (choose IMG file on bottom right of screen, and select the recovery.img from your storage, and choose the Recovery partition to flash to)
6.) Flash the Region Fix file
** Optional of flashing Magisk (v17.1) now if you want **
7.) Flash the DM Verity disabler file
8.) Format DATA again (this removes all of your file from internal storage, so copy them back if you want after the format is done)
9.) Reboot to SYSTEM and Enjoy!
Some steps may be redundant or not needed, however -i spent countless hours in bootloops, reflashes, testing. This method works, and is what i follow every new ROM i install. I am now on the latest Miui10.8.9.6 Global.
Additional Notes:
DON'T downgrade versions of ROMs (ex, miui10 to 9, or miui9 to 8) Anti-Rollback isn't enabled to brick yet (it's only "1")
If you don't flash the Region fix on a Chinese phone, it will constantly reboot, during initial rom setup or won't even make it that far (wish i knew this before, it would have saved me many hours in bootloops)
If you want to STAY on Chinese rom versions with the bootloader locked, you CAN flash miui Chinese developer edition (ex miui10.8.30) using the internal software updater without issues (i did this while waiting for unlocking delay).

Great job ! A good idea for us
Thanks a lot.
I finally could install miui.eu.
Unfortunately i flash magisk but it doesn't root my phone.
Two questions:
First do i just have to flash magisk and dm verity after?
Then for flash another rom do i have to do all the steps again?

Yes, you have to flash dm verity after magisk. After you are booted, if magisk is installed did you try to update magisk from the app? It worked on global ROM for me.
I would forward all steps again, but up to you. If you report back a shorter method that works j can modify instructions.
I am also working on a fix for the Chinese region that keeps coming back with reboot. I know what needs done, and have fixed mine, i just need to modify the region fix zip.

Thanks for this as it really saves time reading bits of information. I took time to change the ROM as I didn't want to brick my phone. Some knowledgeable people on here will even be annoyed if you ask for clarifications and tell you to read! I basically followed most of the steps mentioned.

Unfortunately, Xiaomi made a stupid rule, which is that you can't lock global roms with chinese phones. Starting with Mi 8.
Is this goin to work for phones already unlocked by seller account? Is it possible to use my account after this procedure?
@HugoYe
I thought it is solution for lock after flash CN -> Global.
@johnny1836
What do you exactly mean by fixing the problem. I'm still trying to find a solution for this. Keeping the BL open is really bothering me, as I am using the Official Global rom.

I just used the official Chinese ROM link, back then it was miui10 8.8.30 and let the updater in the phone do it.
here is the official CHINESE DEVELOPER BETA of Miui10 8.8.31-->http://bigota.d.miui.com/8.8.31/miui_MI8_8.8.31_b99e4f5263_8.1.zip

Mi 9T Pro (Global) Rom/ Boot.img/ Recovery.img Download Mirror?

Hi Guys,
I am trying to patch the Mi 9T Pro (global) boot.img for magisk root. The download from the official xiaomi website is sloow (only getting 40KB/s). :crying:
Is there an alternative mirror where I can download the rom image from?
Thanks!
Why don't you just flash orangefox recovery inorder to survive OTAs in future?

Huh, that is new. Never knew that there is a new recovery project. (forgive me, been out of the custom scene for so long.) Maybe I will try that. Is this the correct page?

I used an early version of it because i didn't know there was a newer one, wasted all day unable to boot to the recovery and having to flash full rom with miflash LOL. So to save your time here's what i did. I ASSUME YOUR BOOTLOADER IS UNLOCKED
1. This is the latest orangefox recovery Version: R10.0_7: https://c.mi.com/thread-2482912-1-0.html
2. Download the latest full Recovery ROM of Mi 9T pro global V10.3.2.0.PFKMIXM from here: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.3.2.0.PFKMIXM/miui_RAPHAELGlobal_V10.3.2.0.PFKMIXM_55396ac730_9.0.zip
3. UNZIP the recovery file, you'll see an image file called Recovery.
4. Now fastboot flash that recovery RECOVERY NAME OR LOCATION. After flash succeeds, press and hold volume up + power button until you feel the vibration and then if done properly your phone will boot to orangefox recovery.
4. From there now, copy paste the full orange fox recovery zip file to your phone internal storage, locate it and then swipe to install the recovery again as a permanent solution.
5. IMPORTANT, after you swipe it will reboot itself to recovery again, YOU HAVE TO WIPE DATA otherwise your phone won't boot up, so go to MENU-MANAGE PARTITION-DATA-OK-TYPE YES. Your data is erased so now you'll have to setup phone again.
6. After completing setup, reboot again back to orangefox recovery by pressing volume up and power button. From there go to MENU, click on settings icon on top right, locate and select MIUI OTA, in there select all check boxes, I selected all checkboxes but not sure if it's a must but since nothing wrong happened to me you can follow me lol. in there you will see a message where it tells you to FLASH A FULL MIUI ROM!, So transfer the Recovery ROM you downloaded to your phone and do the “Swipe to install” action. Wait for the OrangeFox to finish its job flashing the ROM. It may take a while because Orange Fox also takes “OTA_BAK” backup process. The backup file is located at /sdcard/Fox/OTA/ directory. Do not ever delete that directory and its files, the OTA Update will fail otherwise.
7. After flashing is done, reboot and it successful, voila your phone is ready for OTAs.
What I'm not sure is if it will survive Android 10 though.

Sorry I don't know what you mean by f2fs but You just flash the orangefox recovery zip with twrp, i flashed dm_verity just to be safe but not sure if it's necessary. Orangefox is also based on TWRP so maybe fsfs works I'm not sure

My first encounter with bootloops and a nearly bricked device

Before we start, I am on an unlocked boot loader with Stock EU rom along with twrp/magisk installed.
So I went ahead and downloaded the latest full rom from c.mi.com and proceded to flash it via twrp, but before that, I made a nandroid backup just for safekeeping. Everything went well but when I tried to install magisk it gave me cannot mount system error. So i tried restarting Twrp but the whole storage was now encrypted even though I took of pin/password from the previous MiUi version. So I googled a bit and tried different Twrp version but none of them even booted but the original version so I gave up and just restored the nandroid backup and this is where the boot loop problem started.
In the end, I went ahead and flashed the whole thing using miflash which went smoothly but not without me being utterly depressed the whole time thinking that I might have hard bricked my device.
Is there any way I can avoid all this headache in the future when Miui 11 and android Q comes out cause I am pretty scared to even try to flash anything atm.
You need to wipe data after flashing TWRP otherwise you won't boot and also the phone will restore the stock recovery on reboot if you don't flash dm_verity
Check this post of mine it might help.

Do you have the Mi 9T Pro?
If you have, only latest orangefox 1.0.0.7 or Mauronofrio's TWRP working for this device. Abhisheks or LR TWRP doesn't work on Mi 9T Pro.

Yup Mi9t Pro user here, and yea for me only latest Mauronofrio's twrp works, but not sure if it will work with Miui11/Q when it is released sometime today
Just googled the orangafox recovery you mentioned, is the one with OrangeFox-R10.0_7-Stable-raphael name?

I think it will work. Because I'm on indian Q Firmware with LOS 17 and there was no issue with Mauronofrio's TWRP.
Yes that's the right orangefox version. I didn't remember the exact name. I tried it once but went again back to TWRP because i grew up with it. :laugh:

Thanks for the info regarging Twrp. everything will go smoothly this time hopefully.
I also wanted to ask that did you format data after installing twrp via fastboot? I was reading on Twrp thread that if you get encrypted after flashing twrp then you will have to format all data for it to disable encryption. This is the only thing that I am still confused about and I really dont want to format my internal storage again . Can you maybe list steps that you took to upgrade to Android Q? thanks

I have Mi 9T pro like you and flashed Orangefox recovery version _07 and no problem at all, i also flashed disable_dm_verity just to be safe and i believe this is where people get stuck on mi logo, if you flash this file it blocks your system from restoring the stock recovery on reboot and makes your TWRP/Orangefox permanent.

Mi 9T Pro rooted and OTA

So since a couple days ago my phone started to notify me that a new update is out (v10.3.4.0 pfkeuxm) But since i running rooted and with TWRP OTA wont work, it just trow me out to TWRP.
So i downloaded the recovery rom version and trying to flash it via TWRP, but i only get a error message that says
-E:string resource 'zip_compatible_err' not found
Using default value.
Zip treble compatibility error!
Invalid zip file format!
Error installing zip file
So now what? Can only find OTA and recovery version to download.

Dude, the first thing you need to do "mi flash" application on the computer by opening the Global Rom file "Clean All" or "Flash All" (options may be different depending on the program version) option to the device with fastboot mode. So you'il have a clean device and everything will be reset. Then set up TWRP with Android 9.0 and 10 support, which works flawlessly on the K20 pro and Mi 9t pro models "TWRP 3.3.1-15 Unofficial by mauronofrio". Then upload the Magisk zip file immediately when you log in to the TWRP screen. After you do this, you can install any Custom Rom file. Or you could have a Global ROM loaded with TWRP.
Why don't you use Orangefox recovery version _07 and with proper settings and preparation you could have it ready to receive OTA?

I made a guide before: https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/how-to/flashing-orangefox-recovery-mi-9t-pro-t3980579
Orangefox is basically a TWRP based but with more features I guess, the most important one being the ability to survive OTAs, for which you will have to apply in settings and then flash a recovery ROM through it so that the recovery will create an OTA_BACK folder in your internal storage, this will make sure you survive the recovery after OTA.
