Hi!
I got the phone unlocked, I flashed the twrp and the miui8+super su.
I updated the rom and lost the recovery and the root permision.
If I flash the twrp again, will I wipe the phone? If yes how can I get rooted again without losing the data?
Thank u!

It's important when you have flashed TWRP that you re-start your device holding the Volume UP button (point 10).
It should keep TWRP after that, it did for me but I flashed my ROM at the same time.
Just flashing TWRP & rooting shouldn't wipe your data.

I unlocked my bootloader and instaled TWRP
Went into recovery and took a full backup
installed UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip
Now my phone will not reboot.
I can get into recovery and have done a factory wipe and tried to reboot, no luck
I also tried to do a restore from the TWRP backup I did prior to installing Supersu and then reboot, no luck
I am on Marshmallow 1.95.401.3
If you can, find an RUU for your version and flash it.
Use the latest version of SuperSU.

Hi all,
yesterday I did the update to 7.0 via TWRP. Everything is working well, but I am missing Xposed.
So, how can I downgrade to 6.0.1? Just flashing 6.0.1 via TWRP?
Ask support. They told us when u have beta they've a special roll back build to flash? I hear something like this.
Just flash twrp, Format data, wipe everything flash the stock MM rom zip and reboot if using custom rom make sure to flash correct firmware for that version
It depends the steps you took, I think there are some threads about this but from my knowledge if you are still on ext4, unlocked bootloader and custom recovery, a simple clean flash should work...
But do check

I have tried to flash 3.0.2-1 twrp but i cannot. Is there any solution for downgrade? Even with toolkit v2.6 is impossible.

Use the latest twrp beta version or modded twrp by eng.stk, backup data and clean flash 3.2.8 and make sure you change data partition to ext4.

Hey guys. I am still on marshmallow on my op3. I am rooted and have twrp recovery. My question is what firmware/modem do I need to flash before I update to latest Nougat update and if my steps below are correct.
I would prefer not to do a clean install.
My steps would be:
Download full rom
Flash any firmware if required - this is what I need to know
Flash Magisk as I need root
Profit?

this is stock rom, you don't need to flash any firmware...
if you're coming from MM, i would recommend sideloading the rom, wipe everything, then go back to stock recovery then sideload then before 1st boot fastboot TWRP again, then reboot to TWRP and flash Magisk...Profit.
if you want to flash from TWRP without going through this (which i don't recommend), make sure in TWRP to format data as f2fs, wipe everything then flash the rom, and then form TWRP flash TWRP again, then reboot to recovery (not system), then flash Magisk.

Thanks a ton for replying. Another question for you. I get the OTA notification. I could just let that run and flash twrp after the installation right.

if you're already rooted it wont install..and you can't flash the small ota file from TWRP, you have to flash the Full rom (1.4 GB)...
how you download is up to you, but why download from the update when there's many links available around !
Thanks for all the help. I flashed the new update successfully.

Hi,
My Nexus 5X died some days ago, and Google shiped me another one. But this new device have the unbelievable "NO RPMB" message that locks the bootloader (this is a known issue where the bootloader is automatically re-locked after each reboot, making flashing factory images an harassing journey).
I installed TWRP to flash a custom rom but after each reboot on the system,TWRP was replaced by stock recovery !
Do anyone knows how resolve this problem ? I suppose if I can flash a custom rom it will solve a great part of the problem... I'm actually thinking of sell this new phone and get another device like oneplus.
Any help will be appreciated ! ?

Unlock bootloader, flash TWRP and boot straight to recovery without rebooting, perform a factory reset and root. That should make TWRP stick. If it doesn't, you can then use the TWRP manager to install TWRP again.

Quick question. As I just picked up a refurb N5X on the cheap and I plan to use it (fingers crossed it does have RPMB, not holding my breath though)- how viable are custom ROMs on this thing? The reddit thread that started this all states to leave /system unmodified but other comments say that they've flashed custom kernels.
So- if this is the case, would the order be unlock bootloader>flash stock images/noencrypt>flash TWRP>boot into TWRP> factory reset> boot into Oreo> unlock bootloader and boot into TWRP when modifications need to be made?
Thanks.

I use a custom kernel so that works just fine, haven't tried a custom ROM though. You don't have to unlock the bootloader every time to make changes as long as you have TWRP. I'm not entirely sure but I think rooting made the TWRP stick. If not, you can still install it from the TWRP app as you have root.
After you've installed the stock images, it should be enough to boot into TWRP, do a factory reset and flash the custom ROM.

So once TWRP is installed and "stuck", it can make modifications to traditionally "root" partitions (system, data, etc.?).
Also, did you flash the noforce encrypt boot image (and then wiping userdata)? Or does the stock image work?

Yes. I've for example installed all the OTAs from TWRP (except Oreo).
Stock image works.

I don't use Netflix so can't say if that works but Play Movies worked on Nougat.

Hello, i have the same NO RPMB problem Im using latest stock rom 8.1 (December patch), radio, bootloader and vendor.
How can i boot straight into recovery without rebooting? Do i need to flash vendor.img too? (i would like flash latest AEX rom).
If im not wrong i should do this procedure as suggested right?
- unlock bootloader from fastboot
- flash latest twrp recovery from fastboot without rebooting (this will work? Because in the N5X root thread it's written to reboot first)
- get into twrp without rebooting (how do that?)
- install root (i will use latest Magisk)
- perform factory reset
- wipe system, data, cache, and dalvik cache
- install custom rom, gapps...
- wipe cache and dalvik, and reboot
Finally i will have a rooted device with custom rom and bootloader locked again right?
Or is preferred this solution of Reddit user?

I haven't tried this with a custom ROM but I would try it like this.
- Unlock bootloader from fastboot
- Flash TWRP from fastboot
- Select boot to recovery from the fastboot menu
- Do a factory reset
- Wipe system, cache, and dalvik cache
- Flash ROM, flash Gapps
- Flash Magisk
- Reboot
