Help installing TWRP on Xiaomi mi5

Hello people
i'm aware that there are guides out there, but i'm honestly not the best at all this flashing stuff, i have done it to a few phones but this one needs to be done just right!
So, where should i begin?, i reckon i should start with unlocking the phone via the unlock tool (i am registered and accepted) and then flash TWRP via that tool?
or is the best/only way of flashing TWRP with the ADB fastboot?

my problem now is i have no idea how to get miui 7 on it. Iknow that all CM based roms will end in a bootloop if i try to flash with that on.
i have tried a number of things, last time i tried i ended up with it not detecting my sim card, so i had to revert back to Miui 8

Use miflash tool to flash latest stable global miui 8, then flash CM
It will be fine. I went to CM that way

No, the MIUI need to be flashed through Miflash tool
TWRP through fastboot
And CM through TWRP
No adb at all

Your thread is getting slightly confusing so let's do it step by step.
Is your phone currently unlocked?
To check, put it into fastboot mode manually without adb:
Turn off your device. Then turn on your device again while holding volume down button.
Plug in your device. Use fastboot:
Code:
fastboot oem device-info
Post screenshots.
Reboot your phone. Post a screenshot of your "About phone" settings menu.

I also tried this way.But not miflash tool. I use twrp to flash global stable rom,boot up the rom and flash twrp through fastboot.And then you can flash your favourite rom.

Hi,
sorry to hijack this thread, but i also have problem flashing TWRP.
I have unlocked phone.
I have USB debugging enabled.
I can reboot to fastboot via adb.
I ca flash twrp (twrp-3.0.2-1-gemini.img 25.2M 2016-07-19 18:48:36 EDT).
But when i go to recovery i still see Mi PcSuite thing. No twrp.
What am i doing wrong? IS there some other, more appropriate twrp image?

I got mine sorted out, what you are missing is when you are done flashinh you have to type "Fastboot reboot" and then set TWRP to default recovery
hope that helps you out

Same problem for me, when i type "Fastboot reboot", my Mi5 reboot quickly and after when i go to recovery i see also Mi PC Suite....
Do you have a workaround ?
Second question, is it normal that time to send TWRP.img to phone in ADB is only 0,9s ?

It's okay now
I used miflash pro and downloaded the rom directly from the app. Now it's fully working again. Thanks for the help guys.

"Flash crclist error" in MI 9 cepheus
Hello, I deleted everything in my MI 9 cepheus, already tried with mi flash, with mi flash pro, with mi suite with xiaomi tools and I can not reset anything.
This happened after installing twrp with adb and within twrp do wipe cache / dalvik, the files were all coded and from there it was in fastboot mode and I can not do anything else.
In mi flash gives the error "Flash crclist error", and died ... peace to your soul :crying:

You have to lock bootloader again "fastboot oem lock" and that Will give you the error system hás been destroyed. Then put him um fastboot mode and flash with miflash tool. Last time that happend me i was in a fastboot loop it took me 5 days to discover.

I had same thing happen to me. You need to force flash firmware. Another XDA member suggested to use miuiflashpro. And flash your phone's firmware back. Part of your phone's recovery has been erased I think. Choose keep data or flash all in settings an your cell will work again

Hello, thanks for the tips, Miflashpro nor detects the equipment... I've exhausted the ideas and options. I think I got a paperweight to put in the Office ?

You put him in fastboot mode? Because you only can flash in Miflash pro with fastboot mode

Can you reflash twrp?
Then ADB sideload ROM?
Goto advanced twrp file manager and move ROM to internal storage?
Then flash ROM?
Follow first post in this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/Mi-9/how-to/guide-how-flashed-twrp-xiaomi-eu-rom-t3912952

After all this was easier to solve than apparently it seemed. Just installed a new version of TWRP (3.3.1-34), the previous one although it indicated that it was nominated for the MI9, was not the best choice. After installing a new one, I uploaded the ROM(MIUI 10.5 by xiaomi.eu 9.6.20) to the root of the phone and installed it. It's all working again.

Question Stock MIUI 12 EEA Stable ROM V12.0.3.0.RKBEUXM on Chinese Mi11

Hi,
I see a new stable rom has been released:
https://c.mi.com/thread-3603220-1-0.html
I've flashed it to my chinese Mi11 using the Fastboot method and everything is working but I have a few questions:
1) What region is this ROM? EEA?
2) Will I receive OTA updates from now on?
3) If I patch boot.img with Magisk would and the answer to 1) is YES, will it be safe to install OTA updates with Magisk installed and will Magisk be removed as part of the OTA update?
Thanks in advance,
Andy

How did you flash EEA on Chinese Mi 11? You wrote "fastboot method", but please explain more. Did you use MIFlash or MiFlashPro or some manual method? Does it need bootloader to be unlocked or it's possible to flash without unlocking?
Thanks in advance for the reply. Regards!

You do need the bootloader unlocked.
I downloaded the Fastboot version, copied over the required fastboot files from the xiaomi.eu rom and ran the bat file to flash_all.bat.
DO NOT RUN THE FLASH_ALL_LOCK.BAT FILE - IN FACT DELETE IT SO YOU CAN'T ACCIDENTALLY RUN IT.

Hi, Just a clarification. Did you mean you copied the platform-tools folder (xiaomi.eu rom) containing (adb,fastboot, ....etc) in the same unzipped folder of the EEA rom , then execute the flash_all.bat file. Thanks

Question how to get rid of Dm-VERITY corruption on boot

Hey guys.. just updating you all
in all of my (previous ) test to get my patched boot.img
i've got this initial msg on my boot :
dm-verity corruption
your device is corrupt.
it can't be trusted and my not work properly.
press enter button to continue.
Or, device will power off in 5s.
(written in white)
NOW i tell that it didn't happen after bootloader unlock (so it was unlocked and all good no problem )
but honestly i don't remember if that happened when i tried to upload official rom through Miflash !
Anyway is there any way to remove this? I re installed ( clean install ) official Rom and it's still there, locked bootloader back and it's still there tried some
fastboot oem enable_dm_verity
i'm also warning new user that you might get this msg at boot !
thanks

How can I do? Miflash says:
error:Writing 'crclist' FAILED (remote: 'not allowed in locked state')

bro you have relock bootloader, this is a fatal error. the only way is try to unlock with an mtk tool that do this via pc. you can find on internet. search unlock all mtk devices. i think there a link also on xda

Just realized that the M3 thread, my phone is a M4.

.

@simika how are you sending this question?

1. Hello friends, there are two ways to fix this problem, first you need Root, I read your Root tutorial, your tutorial is very good, and after using Root, you need to download any file manager, give Root Permissions, you need to backup your baseband, nvram nvdata nvcfg backup and save, you also need an MTK Bypass, you can search for MTK Auth Bypass Tool through Google, you also need to use SP Flash to flash the machine, you need to download the official firmware package, which can be downloaded from xiaomirom.com , download the corresponding version, use SP Flash to read your firmware package, after the reading is completed, choose to format all and download, wait for completion, press the power button after completion, you will find that the error has disappeared, but the baseband is lost, But you have backed up. Boot through fastboot to unlock the BL lock, perform fastboot flash nvram ....... fastboot flash nvdata ....... fastboot flash nvcfg ....... Fastboot reboot reboot. Congratulations The baseband is back, I'm a novice, my instructions are not comprehensive, such as where is the baseband location, but I have too many characters, I will list the baseband location. 2. Replace a new motherboard, all mobile phone problems are all solve.
Hope to help you.
