My GX8 is starting TWRP automatically at every start

Hey guys,
i had CM13 on my phone an i wanted to try a new rom. So i did all the steps like it is written in the thread. After i used the wipe function my phone is always starting in twrp and i cant install a new rom and i also can't update my twrp.
Is my phone now ****ed up or can i do anything to save?
Thx

You should be able to boot to bootloader if it's the same problem I have. You can then either flash the stock recovery or this version of TWRP which should fix the problem; https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70296158&postcount=79

right now it is on v2.8.7.0 and i tried to install the new version but it's not working

so, anyone able to install twrp over miui 10 global stayble rom?

After flashing the latest global stable miui 10 ROM on mi max 3, I can't flash tarp without bootloop or stuck on mi logo. My device is Chinese version and before installing global stable miui 10, I flashed twrp successfully. Now I can't even flash eu ROM, it just sticks on mi logo. I tried with magisk, but unlucky. Anyone have the same experience? At last my decision is, this version of miui is the culprit, though I m not sure!

Can you give a bit more information?
What steps did you take and in which order?

Every possible order.
1st, flashed twrp/s
2. Formatted data, because it asked for password to decrypt
3. Mount every possible partition
4. Wipe all without 'system'
5. Flash eu ROM
6. And it stucks on boot.
And only possible sollution after this stuck for me is, to flash again a fastboot ROM. No recovery ROM at this stage gains a successful boot.
Note: I have to flash several times my phone fastboot ROM to recover phone and try again again. No success. Every time I try it starts from decrypt data option and stuck on boot. Even I tried with flashing magisk also, after flashing eu ROM. But no luck.
At a point I found 'reset phone' option and gboard has stopped bug, but whenever I try to reset, it goes to twrp.

Because global stable and TWRP don't work together. Have you seen anyone root global stable? I haven't. This is why global is not as versatile compared to xiaomi.eu roms.

Did you try twrp app? Just as a test. Also try magisk app to install magisk to see if it helps. When we were testing Resurrected kernel, magisk was needed to get past boot screen. None if this is proven to work, but just trying to see if it helps.

Yes, tried official twrp. Even tried official twrp with magisk. In both case it stuck with booting screen/mi logo. No luck.
Edit: my all tries are: twrp+reboot / twrp+eu rom+magisk+reboot / twrp+lagzyflasher+reboot..
All the combinations resulted in a bootloop/ stuck in mi logo. In every time the only work around to past the boot screen is to flash again a fastboot rom. Only that time it successfully boots.

When you flash TWRP, you can boot to twrp or no? If you can, then it's when you flash an eu rom where you get stuck? Are you factory resetting before flashing eu rom?

Yes, i can boot to twrp. And always reset to factory/wipe everything before and after flashing eu rom. As i edited my comment above, with just twrp+magisk+reset+reboot / twrp+reset+eurom+magisk+reset+boot every times it gets stuck on reboot after flash.

Who told you to reset after flashing? That's why you're having issues. Don't reset after eu or magisk.
Twrp - factory reset - eu rom - reboot. That's it.

Wiping cache and dalvik cache are not the same as reset. They shouldn't cause any problems. Regardless, try without wiping them.

Don't know what to tell you then. Sorry, buddy.

Try this
1- TWRP flashing method:
Boot Twrp or Redwolf using “fastboot boot XYZ.img”
Copy img to device then flash Image file of XYZ.img again from recovery.
Flash Lazyflasher Or Magisk
Or you can just flash any AOSP/LOS based ROM

I'm running into the same problem... I did the following steps:
Reboot into the bootloader
Flashed TWRP
Held Volume UP and Power Botton to boot into TWRP
Wiped Cache and Dalvik Cache
However, this does not fix the problem. Can you further explain what you did step by step?

Nice but if Zip is available, the fastboot rom is coming very soon I think maybe it's better to wait no ?

Ah, right, I don't use miui usually. When I do it seems EU ROM was better over the years.

installed the rom, everything working fine until i flashed magisk 17.1 and stuck on the bootloop now. Anyone has the solution for this?

Device turns off randomly after root

Hi guys, I rooted my redmi note 8 yesterday. Everything went well except two things: on boot the error message said that "there is an internal problem" and the phone reboots/shuts down itself.
Any thoughts?

You should explain the problem obviously if you want a help, if your phone still working you should flash twerp.img to be able to root it and solve any existing problem by flashing new rom

If you still want to root it again,after flasing new rom go to twero and then go to wipe then format,you should format your phone after rom flashing,try this and inform me

Yes yes! I want to root phone once again. So the steps are these:
1) booting into twrp with adb from pc.
2) from the twrp menu wiping and formating the data
3) instaling new rom
Is this true?
Thanks!

If you want to root you don't have to install another custom rom unless you don't like the stock rom. If you like your current stock rom, then flash twrp in fastboot and download the latest magisk stable zip and also diasble dm-verity zip. Using twrp first flash disable dm-verity zip and then magisk zip, wipe dalvik cache and reboot to system, hopefully you would have root permission.

From your stock rom extract the boot.img and place it on your SD card. Flash the boot image using twrp or you can also flash in fastboot, then reboot. Now boot to twrp recovery and flash dm-verity first and then magisk zip. Worked for me I'm having root permission with stock rom.

the bootloader was unlocked. everything went kinda fine, until i flashed youtube vanced from magisk: when i did that, the system was unable to boot. i don't know what's happening. is there anything to do with kernel or something? really interesting what i am doing wrong.

I think it may be because of YouTube vanced module. If you remove the module you might be able to boot. In twrp in the advanced option select file manager and then select data/adb/magisk/ in that you will find the list of installed modules, select the one which is causing the problem and delete that folder and try to reboot.

Kirin GSI Custom ROMs Developments for Huawei

I have found this android 10 Rom for which you are uninterested in the probe on my p20 EML L09 and it works correctly

Does it work with L29? What version of the recovery has to be used?
Thanks in advance for your answer?

Screens?

I can confirm the ROM is working pretty fine !
Flashed via fastboot then I flashed TWRP (downloaded the P20 Pro version from the official TWRP website) and sideload Gapps since touchscreen isn't working

Get the official TWRP app, choose Berkeley as your device and download latest TWRP 3.3.10 I think
Then flash it via fastboot, reboot into recovery by holding volume down while powering up. Plug back into your PC, adb sideload gapps.zip , you might have to adb shell twrp sideload before
