After unlocked bootloader i installed twrp for installing for custom rom.
I follow all steps of flashing custom rom , gapps n all that from rom threads ,even by watching tutorial , it flashed properly showing in recovery ..but when i reboot to system phone stuck on mi logo.
i tried rom like Rr, dotos, coltos, lineage. But getting nothing.
Help me !!
Current using redmi 4x betarom
If you had followed the instructions on the XDA threads like you say then you must've been able to have a successful flash.
For flashing custom ROM:
1)Unlock Bootloader
2)Flash TWRP
3)Copy your downloaded ROM and Gapps zip to Internal storage OR SD card.
4)Boot into TWRP
5)Wipe System+Data+Cache+Dalvik
6)Flash ROM zip first and then Gapps secondly.
7)Wipe Cache+Dalvik.
8)Reboot.
If you followed these instructions in the exact same order and flashed a compatible ROM for your phone you shouldn't have any trouble in booting the ROM.
Next time try this:
Unlock bl
Boot into twrp
Format data
Restart and boot into twrp again by volume plus volume up. Format data again.
Now go to twrp home-settings-advanced-fix boot/disable verification and wait for few seconds.
Now unmount and mount data partition. Transfer rom zip file to internal memory by pc and install it. Its bound to work.
Check if system is mounted from TWRP recovery if not then enable it.
Also check if TWRP recovery is on latest version or not.(do backup everything if there is need of updating TWRP recovery)
I suggest you to use the pixel experience rom, it doesn't need gapps, just flash one zip file of the room itself

I'm using this and it's super fine
Hi, im having a little bit of a problem here, i succesfully managed to unlock the bootloader of my chinese mi8, flashed and booted twrp, the issue is, my files seem to be encrypted, i can't copy anything to the device while on fastboot/recovery mode from the pc, tried booting to miui, allowing the transfer of files and booting to twrp again (for some reason i can't boot to twrp from the device itself, it has to be via fastboot with the command "fastboot boot ***") but all twrp shows me are folders with random characters, it seems to be some sort of auto-encryption, do you know how to solve it?
Miui auto encrypts the device, that is why your device is encrypted. You are unable to boot to twrp for two reasons: 1. Miui auto checks and rewrites over any custom recovery 2. Fastboot boot command does not install twrp, it only boots into it, from which u must install twrp again.
Upon booting into twrp, you need to FORMAT data, flash TWRP, flash this file https://zackptg5.com/android.php#disverfec (DM-verity and anti-encryption) this will prevent anti encryption when your freshly flashed ROM boots up.
Side note: DO NOT RELOCK YOUR BOOT LOADER IF YOUR MI 8 IS CHINA VARIANT AND YOU ARE INSRALLING GLOBAL ROM.
I HIGHLY SUGGEST YOU HEAD OVER ONTO THIS THREAD TO UNDERSTAND BETTER! https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-8/development/rom-mi-8-miui-10-global-beta-8-8-7-t3826560/page7

Hi everyone, when I install the TWRP using the flashable zip installer and then boot into TWRP it gets stuck in the TWRP logo and when I flash from fastboot it works fine, but I need to install it from flashable zip because I TWRP the I have to start with the partition slot A that also has the custom rom, I can't always change slot partitions every time I have to do operations with the TWRP.
I would also like to note that using the twrp-installer-jasmine_sprout-3.2.3.zip results in the recovery mode sitting on the TWRP logo even if it was a successful install.
I'm hoping someone can find a fix to this soon.

Do you flash the rom before the twrp zip?
I found a workaround instead of using the zip package.
1. Get the current partition you are using:
Code:
fastboot getvar current-slot
2. Choose which partition you want to install to( in this case I'm using B, but you can use A if you like ) and flash the latest TWRP IMG file:
Code:
fastboot flash boot_b twrp-3.2.3-0-jasmine_sprout.img
3. Set the current partition to the one you just flashed:
Code:
fastboot set_active b
Yes but then to go to TWRP to do something I can't always use a PC and from fastboot change slots. I took so long to install Magisk.
I had to dump the boot partition, modify it with magisk manager and flash it with the TWRP, it doesn't seem like anything to dump but to me it was difficult because I don't have root at the beginning.
If I flash the TWRP in the boot partition in the resurrection remix slot, I lose the chance to start the custon rom
Fixed, after the 3000th time I flashed, then the TWRP starts up, I don't know how not to ask me why but now I try to hypothesize 2 solutions:
1) We have to stay for a while with the custom rom, then later when you will try to flash the zip, the TWRP will start.
2) You need to have both Magisk and TWRP installed in the boot in order to start the TWRP flashed from zip without problems.
These solutions do not know if they are like this or I am confusing myself, so it happened to me.
If in doubt, hoping for an update does not hurt, maybe the TWRP will start immediately with no problems in the future.
Hello, everyone!
I hope anyone can help me.
Yesterday I assisted with rooting and flashing a Mi 9 T Pro with Xiaomi.eu firmware.
Here are the steps which were done:
1. Unlocking bootloader via MiFlash Tool.
2. Flashing TWRP (this one: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117906979)
3. First trouble: It only booted once into TWRP with "fastboot boot recovery xxx.img, after formatting data and a restart of TWRP it refused to get access again, neither with a command nor with hardware keys. It was stuck in fastboot.
4. With the MiFlash Tool I reverted to the stock global (this one: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.3.1.0....M_20190805.0000.00_9.0_global_135788d537.tgz)
5. After successfully flashing the stock ROM, I downloaded and flashed this TWRP: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=1899786940962577905
6. Flashing this version of TWRP went perfectly fine.
7. In TWRP I formatted data again. I restarted TWRP and copied the following files to storage:
ROM: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1899786940962578113
Magisk 19.2.zip
Disable_dm verity_ForceEncrypt
8. I wiped Dalvik, cache, system and data.
9. I flashed ROM - it went through without problems
10. I tried to flash the dm verity, then an error occurred (please see the attached picture).
Can you please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Root is mandatory for me, I definitely need it.
I'm looking forward to your input and your help, it's very appreciated!
try to unmount system then flash it again

Thanks for your input. I tried that, unfortunately this didn't work.
But I found the solution a few minutes ago:
I downloaded TWRP 3.3.1-13 (one version newer) and flashed it inside of my old TWRP. I rebooted to recovery again and then flashed Magisk without problems.
(The dm verity still refuses to install but the phone is booting and running.)
Well, it always work for me, or simply reboot recovery also work. Try wzsx twrp, it has remove DM verity & forced encryption remover in advanced menu
Hi all,
I was on xiaomi.eu MIUI 11 ROM for some time, but wanted to switch to either Evolution or Syberia ROM.
I did a complete wipe and installed evolution os trough twrp... but i forgot to remove encryption so i bricked my device...
So then, I flashed the latest stock rom (11.05)with Xiaomi flash tool, but then i was stuck with the chinese ROM so...
1. I went back to bootloader and flashed mauronofrio's TWRP recovery .
2. completely wiped phone; Cache,System,Data,Internal storage
3. copied Evolution OS 4.1 to my phone
4. installed zip trough TWRP, all successfull
5. but then when rebooting, TWRP says:"No OS installed, do you wish to continue"
6. i tried other ROMs like xiaomi.eu and syberia, but these would either give me the same problem, or just bootloop until iam back in the fastboot screen...
Anyone any idea what iam doing wrong?

This works for me every time.
1 Flash the latest fastboot ROM.
2 Flash TWRP (same one you used)
3 Boot into TWRP (use the vol+ button when booting)
4 In format menu swipe to factory reset, then format data (VERY IMPORTANT this must be FORMAT not just wipe)
5 In reboot menu boot into recovery, this ensures TWRP correctly accesses the newly formatted data partition.
6 Copy over the ROM (and GApps, if needed and/or Magisk)
7 Flash the ROM, (then GApps if needed)
8 Boot into system and do the initial setup
9 If installing Magisk, boot back to TWRP and install Magisk.
There is no need to wipe anything else. There is no need to wipe anything again after installing. There is no need to disable encryption or dm-verity.

thanks, i always thought that a wipe was sufficient, or at least equal to a format... anyways will report back later when i have time to try it. lets hope it works because i can't handle this chinese rom

The format is needed to temporarily remove encryption
I've just remembered that I missed an important step. Call it step 1.5
If you going to flash immediately after flashing official MIUI you must boot into MIUI once before doing anything else. You don't need to go through the set-up, you can boot immediately into fastboot after you get to the initial set-up page. The first boot finalises the install and is needed before you flash over the top of it. That may be the cause of your issue if you had missed this before.

Ok so i flashed TWRP again, rebooted to stock rom and then rebooted into recovery, but the stock recovery is still there.
When i flash TWRP and reboot into recovery immediately i can enter TWRP, but if i reboot the phone to MIUI and then reboot again, TWRP is gone again...
It seems like TWRP does not persist... now iam stuck again on fastboot screen because i wiped + formatted everything.
Edit:
When i want to flash recovery it says "OKAY" but it is unable to boot:
Sending 'recovery' (65536 KB) OKAY [ 1.562s]
Writing 'recovery' OKAY [ 0.333s]
Finished. Total time: 1.989s
Sending 'boot.img' (65536 KB) OKAY [ 1.547s]
Booting FAILED (remote: 'Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error')
fastboot: error: Command failed

This is normal, MIUI will restore stock recovery of the recovery partition changes. In order to persist TWRP you need to either install Magisk, disable dm-verity or install a custom ROM.
If you are going to flash a custom ROM, then you should do so immediately after flashing TWRP.
After formatting data, TWRP has an issue seeing the data partition, so go to the reboot menu in TWRP and select to reboot to recovery.
Then you can immediately install the ROM of choice. You cannot boot back into system as you'll lose TWRP.

Ok, it appears that everytime i wipe system, i am not able to boot anymore into TWRP... Am i supposed to wipe System? or only wipe data & format data

There is no need to wipe system. You only need to wipe cache and dalvik and format data. (I choose to factory reset because it's easier in TWRP, but you could do advanced wipe and select cache and dalvik, then format data. Follow the steps exactly, but include my later step 1.5
I've just followed this myself today, as I've moved from LOS to the latest unofficial Havoc build.
In theory you could start by booting to fastboot and flashing TWRP again, then follow the steps from that point. You probably don't need to install MIUI.

Ok thanks a lot! So no need to wipe system partition after stock rom install. just wipe cache/dalvik/data, got it.
Most ROM install guides tell you to wipe /system when coming from stock rom. I guess this requirement has changed? or depends on what ROM you're coming from?
Use can use my guide

I need help... The reason why I'm flashing custom rom is, when the latest update came MIUI 12.5 android 11, all sensors of my phone stopped working like (Gyroscope, accelerometer, proximity sensor) I tied to flash the rom by fastboot method but still the problem persists. because of that I unlocked bootloader and flashed twrp. After flashing custom rom when I tried to boot it, it stuck on booting screen and when I tried to reboot into recovey it is showing fastboot mode. I'm unable to boot into custom rom.
