Can not get back to Stock from LineageOS Android 11 - Realme X2 Pro Questions & Answers

I have installed Lineage OS 18 Android 11 Rom from below thread,
https://forum.xda-developers.com/realme-x2-pro/development/rom-lineageos-18-0-realme-x2-pro-t4177291
I have used the OrangFox R11 Recovery for the installation.
Now I can not go back to stock C.33 firmware. I have tried installing OZIP both with TWRP and OrangeFox but no luck so far. Whenever the installation completes and I reboot the device, it shows boot/recovery damaged error message.
I have tried OZIP installation followed by vbmeta.img flashing as well. But no luck. Still the same error message.
I have tried flashing fastboot rom with all files (but no recovery img was inside) as well but still the same error.
I have tried RealMe Flash Tool with Firmware OFP but still the same error.
I'm simply stuck on this LineagOS 18 rom and I badly wanna go back to the Stock rom. :crying:
Please help!
P.S : If this thread needs to be moved somewhere elsle please be kind enough to do so. I'm not so familiar with thread openings. Sorry about it. :fingers-crossed:

If it says "boot/recovery damaged" and you're still able to use your phone, you should consider yourself lucky. I had to send mine in warranty for repair. I too am trying to go back to stock ROM after installing LOS 18.

These images have bricked my phone! Error message:
The current image(boot/recovery) have been destroyed and can not boot.
Please flash the correct image or contact customer service to fix it.

I didn't try that, however I did manage to get my phone up and working again after having destroyed the boot/recovery
I used Realme Flash Tool in combination with TWRP to get the phone up and running.

It's risky because if the ROM is not right it will mess up your phone completly.
Did you download it from the XDA thread, right?

Try a different USB port or cable... Somehow solved it for me. Keep flashing the latest fastboot version and remain patient

I faced something like this...stock rom was not flashing...some error shows up... someone told me to change the fastboot rom file directory...i copied the rom to my desktop...thn it worked...i don't know if it would help...but why not give it a try
Thanks to everybody who gave their advice here. For me, it was a PC problem (or adb driver problem). I factory reset my PC cause I have cloud backup, and started the process clean. From there, I only downloaded Minimal ADB and Fastboot. Then I tried MiFlash, and the flashing process went through without any errors this time.
Hello,
I have the same problem, screen stuck on Fastboot.
It happened after having cleared up too much with TWRP.
I can't figure out how to flash back the original rom.
I see lot of tutorials and roms but nothing really clear.
I downloaded Mi Flash Pro.
Questions:
- Where can I find the last official rom for Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro / Redmi K20 Pro? (for European Union)
- How can I use Mi Flash Pro to re-install it back?
Thanks a lot for your help

How can I get my xiaomi mi a2 back to normal?

I rooted my phone but didn't really like it while having my banking apps on it. So I tried to get back to normal but ended up wiping everything, even the OS, off of my phone. I am trying to get it back to normal. I followed one guide on here which gave me an android 10 ROM but I was unable to update it to the latest version. The link for that guide is: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2/how-to/guide-official-stock-android-10-t4033835. I didn't install the force encrypt or the magisk because I don't wanna root it. I just want it back to how it was before the root. So I am wondering if there is a way that I can get back to normal now. Thanks in advance for any advice.

The ROM was an earlier version of android 10. But I am unable to install the latest updates for android 10 OTA. It's working but I would like to be able to receive updates again. If there is another ROM that would give me those results I would be fine with flashing that too.

the most likely issue is your recovery ... take the stock recovery from a fastboot stock rom and flash that with fastboot
also make sure to flash stock rom in both slot A & B then updates will work
go to this website
https://www.getdroidtips.com/xiaomi-mi-a2-stock-firmware/
download a PIE stock rom that is a FASTBOOT version ... download miflash ...follow instructions to flash it using miflash in fastboot mode
then boot & set it up ...it will start offering updates by itself
your problem right now is that you flashed stock rom in only one slot and you have a custom recovery so that is why it can't update

The miui flash program wouldn't work for me. On the website you linked me there was a method that used twrp to flash it. But when use twrp I can't see any of the zip files in twrp. I've tried three different ones from the link I just shared here. Not sure what the problem is.

Thank you very much now It works, but I want to ask you: Why can not i enter in recovery Mode? I tried the power on and volume down combination, but the phone enter only fastboot mode with "oplus verification failed" message. If I do a factory reset under the Android, the phone load the recovery, until resetting.

SHRP Recovery bootloop after flashing a ROM (although rom is fine)

Hello,
As the title suggests, I've flashed a custom rom (EvolutionX to be exact), upon booting it up, mediatek Ims stops working, but that appears only on boot so it's not that big of a deal.
However, Upon rebooting into recovery (through system or via vol up+power) i get greeted by the SHRP logo but it powers off and on.
Fastboot mode works just fine, ROM works too, the recovery doesnt want to work though. I had the phone modded for 2 weeks and this is the first time this happened.
Any idea on i can fix it? I've already tried flashing the same recovery via fastboot but to no avail, i get an error saying:
fastboot: error: cannot load 'SHRP_v3.1_stable-Official_CD6-1630047089': Permission denied
That's weird, because my phone has an unlocked bootloader.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Friend Maybe you had a small error in the firmware of your device, if I'm not mistaken I think that later the equipment will be in a hardbrick and you will have to wait for the bootloop cycle to pass, which is when the battery runs out and you will have to resort to SP Flash Tool to fix mobile
I hope I have helped you, it is something that I have learned

did you flash the .zip using the SHRP recovery or did you use the fastboot method? I just used the Install Magisk feature and now my phone it bootlooping. I can enter the SHRP and fastboot. It just bootloop after the lock icon disappears.

Question Stuck in fastboot after trying to install PixelExperience :(

Hey everyone
I recently got this phone and went through the bootloader unlock process.
I then tried to follow the instructions on this page https://wiki.pixelexperience.org/devices/rosemary/install/ to get this rom installed but somehow ****ed it up.
Everything went well until I tried to flash the recovery img from this page: https://get.pixelexperience.org/rosemary (i downloaded the 13 plus recovery img).
I flashed the img via fastboot but after that I got stuck in fastboot. The phone is stuck in a bootloop when I try to reboot into recovery or normal boot. The only thing I can get back into is fastboot.
Would really appreciate any help to get the phone working again. Im not new to android custom roms but Im new to xiaomi phones and Im a little lost
Thanks.
OK nevermind I successfully got the phone booting again with miflash tool by reflashing an official firmware...
Greetings!
You can install the rom via adb sideload too. Put on some random recovery (see my tutorial here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/twrp-on-android-12.4522273/), and start adb sideload.
Then,
adb sideload insert_package_name.zip

Did u make sure ur on Miui 12.5.16.0.RKLMIXM?

Greetings!
As this phone has an MTK processor, we don't really have a recovery image, it's stored in the boot img I suppose. That link, you can download the official rom to this. DISCLAIMER: There are two types of ROMs listed here, one type is fastboot, that you need now in order to flash it through a computer for example. The another type is the recovery rom, that you can flash from recovery like a magisk package, or anything flashable zip, or with adb sideload.
https://mifirm.net
You should choose global if you are in Europe, but it's suitable for devices in the US or USA probably, ony feature differences are here between an EEA and Global rom.
Also, if you install pixel experience recovery, you can install the firmware by going into recovery, and do it via sideload. Or, you can try flashing the rom with TWRP (tutorial linked below), but then you won't able to install updates automatically.
One question: Did you checked in OEM unlocking in developer options before flashed PE?
Hope it helps!
Yeah, I did checked the oem unlocking. I think the reason why i failed because my bootloader probably updated and I forgot to check. You need bootloader version 12.5.16.0.RKLMIXM to install the pixel experience. Also thank for help
Greetings!
You can install the rom via adb sideload too. Put on some random recovery (see my tutorial here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/members/gurtnyi.11842195), and start adb sideload.
Then,
adb sideload insert_package_name.zip

Can I do that on newer firmware or should I roll back to version 12.5.16.0.RKLMIXM? And if I roll back then I need to unlock device again?
I think you can. I've flashed it successfully on the latest version too. Currently I don't use PE but it was good for me.
Well, regarding to the unlock, it's not a big deal, you don't have to wait 168h again, once you've firstly unlocked your device, you can re-unlock it again, and again, no matter how many times, you don't have to wait a lot again.
But depending on how you rollback it,
I mean, with xiaomi flasher (i think that's its name) you can choose between clean all and lock, save userdata, and clean all, but in the first case, it'll lock back the bootloader. With SP flash tool (if you need, I can provide a link for the modified version of it, that doesn't require an auth file, but if fails, you need a python script, I can link that too), as I remember it won't lock back the device, but I'm not a 100% sure
Hope it helps!

Happy to hear that!
