[Q] Cannot flash any custom ROMs

Hi Guys,
I have searched for a few days and ready through many threads on this but I simply cannot get my One X to accept a custom ROM.
Here is the info:
One X Tegra
Currently running 4.1.1 stock but rooted
Hboot is 1.36.0000
Radio is 5.1204.163R.30
Currently I have the latest CWM installed (downloaded yesterday from the CWM site) and I had TWRP before that.
I have tried no word of a lie at least 10 ROMS and they all fail with an error. CWM says "Error in *Rom.zip location* (status 7) Installation aborted"
I have redownloded and downloaded from different sites, I have cleared all the cache/data partitions many times, I have tried flashing on the device and using tools. I have tried a different USB cable and a different computer. I have flashed loads of ROMS onto countless smart phones thanks to the guys at XDA but this one has me stumped.
Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks for replying. I had the same issue with TWRP, it started the install and then said there was an error. Good thing I had a backup I could restore as it partially flashes then fails.

Trying to get CMod11 installed. Tried on CWM and now I am on TWRP.
Just tried ADB Sideload using the WinDroid Universal HTC Toolkit. Result:
"Can't install this package on top of incompatible data. Please try anoth
E:Error executing updater binary in zip"
When I try gapps I get:
"Set_metadata_recursive: Some changes failed"

Oh I see, I don't have it installed at the moment, can you suggest a version that does support USB.otg please?

Flash philz 5.15 that i linked. Mount the sdcard inside the recovery as a usb disk in the mounts and storage menu. Wait litreraly minutes to let it pop up at the pc and copy a rom to the internal sd. Stop using usb otg

OK, I did that but got the same error. Downloaded cm11 again and had the same problem. Tried cm10 and that flashed correctly. Gets stuck on the CMOS animation though. Clearing cache etc doesn't allow it to boot. Ugh!

Hi Guys,
Firstly sorry for the late reply, been quite busy.
Secondly thanks for all the help, I finally managed to get CM installed with a combination of the suggested recovery, a different USB cable (I think this was the killer) and several attempts in fastboot etc.
My current problem is as shown:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So battery life is pretty poor (even though i had the battery replaced with a new one!) So far I have set my location to battery saving, and manually chosen my mobile network which has improved it somewhat, but I am struggling to make one day with very little use. I know the battery is working well because I was n the phone for a while and it did not drop much.
There are no kernel or partial wakelocks that I can see, but as the screenshot shows there is quite a big discrepancy between Awake and screen on.
The only thing I can find (and please excuse my lack of understanding and ability with better battery stats) is that under Alarms, com.google.android.gms shoes as "54%"... so not sure on that one... halp?

It should be flashable in fastboot mode or at least in EDL mode with the latest MiuiFlash.

But the rom doesn't seem to be fastboot version. Infact I try and it's possible to install it with updater app, but the system says that it is an older version of stable.

You're right... looks like a OTA or something image... i don't have my Mi5 with me to check if you can flash it via TWRP.

Well, i never had it installed, so i cannot say anything about it... maybe the thread starter could say something about it
We only know its not "official" available.

I flashed it and am using it since yesterday. So far I haven't encountered any issues but I'm kind of put off by the state of their ROMs for this phone currently and hence haven't exactly 'tested' anything out.
The thread on the Chinese forum is still alive but they aren't letting people post it International apparently.
http://www.miui.com/thread-4296538-1-1.html

In case anyone needs info how to install it -> installed it via Updater which brings you to TWRP, after which the devices was decrypting and after it installed as any other update. Took about 20mins. Installed it "over" xiaomi.eu_multi_gemini_6.5.19_v7-6.0.zip

This rom rewrites recovery to the stock one and decrypts data. I re-flashed twrp recovery but in twrp it asks me for password to access/decrypt the data (the data thats on the phone, such as TWRP backups and other ROM .zip's) ? I have no lock screen/no password on my phone. Tried booting in system and setting lock screen password and using that in TWRP but no luck. Tried "default password" but it does not work. I wan't to restore other version of en.miui rom, but I can't access it via TWRP now. Any ideas for the password or way around? I am too lazy to reflash MiFLash version of 6.4.21 and then copy my TWRP backups onto the phone..

Surprisingly original one works through updater. But in the yesterday morning when nI tried via TWRP it does not worked for me and showed boot.img related error but flashed successfully and device never booted up and stuck on boot logo. Then I flashed 7.2.4.0 again and just for checking I tried to flash manually via updater apps and it works. Unlike other updater ROM this one wiped all data (though I did not have any) and had a clean install.

this doesn't look like a fastboot ROM!
Just to add details:
Xiaomi names fastboot Roms with "phone_name"_"version"...
like the Mi5 fastboot Roms are: gemini_images_V....
And Mi5 Recovery ROms are miui_MI5...
So if you tried to flash it as a fastboot ROM it's likely to not work.

I had the similar message when going from 7.3.3.0 China to the latest China developer. I would not mind it.

I could not find the solution to get back to 6.5.19 eu.miui rom. Whatever password options I tried within TWRP data would not unlock/decrypt (tried -> password, default_password, default password, "lock screen password/lock screen pin").
To resolve the issue I:
1. copied contents (including made backups with TWRP 3.0.2) of the phone while booted into the system to my pc 2. reflashed MiFLash version of 6.4.21 eu.miui rom via MiFlash in FastBoot;
3. reflashed TWRP to the one version which matched the version of my TWRP backups (3.0.2)
4. while booted into 6.4.21 eu.miui rom copied TWRP backup from pc to the phone
5. booted into TWRP and restored my TWRP backup.
So the test of this rom version costed my 2 hours :laugh:

I never told that it looks like a fastboot ROM kind of a thing! Looking at the inside of zip file also can indicate that which one fastboot or which one is recovery ROM. BTW, I am still waiting for your comment on another of mine thread where I mentioned you. This is, I am not getting mobile network signal most of the times and get it back network barely. Impossible to use the phone. Please help.
I was just trying to say OP that original one (leaked) worked for me through phone updater rather TWRP. TWRP can flash it but firmware don't have ability to boot the device. That is why I 1st rollback to to Global stable 7.2.4.0 and then update this ROM. Even not seen any verification error in the flashing process. But TWRP presented me error in boot.image which OP mentioned. I think this ROM leaked from any closed alpha/beta tester and that is why updater apps not shows any error. If you try to install 7.2.8.0 over 7.2.4.0 recovery ROM it shows verification error.

Think I just bricked my Le Eco Pro 3. Dragged the ROM into the root system of my X727 I was going to flash, Lineage 13
Enabled USB Debug
Unlocked Bootloader
Flashed GS Custom Recovery
Wiped Everything
Went to Flash the ROM, and nothing showed up...
I rebooted, and now I think the stock recovery re-installed itself, and there is no ROM present because I wiped everything.
Help
I just get a flicker of the Le Eco Boot Screen, then it shuts off. Can't get into ADB or Recovery.

Can you get to fastboot? Power button + vol up? If you can you can probably flash a chinese bootloader and then try booting again

Thankfully I fixed it.
Flashed an aboot file, and all a sudden, Lineage 13 started up. You cannot believe how psyched I was. I was on eBay looking at my next phone, and all angry that I messed up my perfectly good phone.
I don't think this tool had anything to do with it. I was unforunate enough to wipe my phone before I went to install the ROM, and it wiped the ROM too. When it restarted, it had nothing to boot too. Just used Fastboot to flash the aboot file, and sideloaded the ROM and flashed away

Had the same issue and same fix for my attempt into unlocking bootloader and installing custom recovery and rom.
Did you also flash the 5.8.0.19 aboot file? I'm wondering if flashing a newer one is a good idea...

Very good tool thank you very much Mauro

Thanks Mauro, it helped me install Omni ROM.
Question, I had two TWRP versions to choose from, I installed the latest 3.02. Is it useful to update the TWRP with e.g. the 3.1.0 from Darkobas?

Thank you for all your effort for our Le Pro 3 :good:

Does this unlock bootloader with the current us version 21s?

I try using this Tool ALL in One on the Le Pro 3 but unable to unlock the bootloader as it displayed
"FAILED <remote: oem unlock is not allowed).
I already checked "ON under the OEM UNLOCKING" and "USB debugging" is "ON" also under the Developer Option before turning off the phone and boot it (volume down + Power) into Fastboot Mode.
Please help. Any advise is appreciated.

Can you get to fastboot? Power button + vol up? If you can you can probably flash a chinese bootloader and then try booting again

Question [CLOSED] POCO F3 GLOBAL STUCK ON BOOT LOGO. HELP NEEDED.

Ok, so for some reason, my poco f3 global (alioth, miui 12.5.1) is stuck on boot logo (the screen that shows poco f3) after flashing a magisk patched boot image of the same firmware.
I don't have twrp, also adb command to remove magisk doesn't work. any workaround to remove magisk using a fastboot command? :/ any other way? can I install twrp at this stage without losing data?
I am genuinely sick of this device, a part from the very VERY bad quality of the hardware, NFC did not work for me even on stock bl locked firmware, a lot of issues happened when I rooted it for the first time and made me lose data. now today the device updated automatically to miui 12.5.1 and made me lose root despite having all auto update options disabled. I am genuinely considering throwing away this phone if I lose data this time. please help.

just flash a new boot image without magisk from the rom you were flashing.
next time you want magisk just boot the alpha twrp the F3 has and flash magisk as normal from there

That sounds really good. could be useful.
Sadly this option in dev options was already disabled, yet it updated itself automatically. which is the thing that enraged me the most.

As you wrote earlier, you had root access before MIUI update.
Once you get root, use Debloater to debloat the updater.
Code:
com.android.updater
is one of it.
Maybe there's other ones, but I don't have this phone, can't tell much about it.

have you managed to fix your issue? what rom version are you running, do you need stock boot.img still?

Alpha TWRP is simply an unofficial TWRP developed by Nebrassy. It can do most of the things. One of which, flashing magisk. So you should give it a shot.

Issue solved after flashing unmodified boot.img, thanks all.

Unfortunately it doesn't boot, I entered the fastboot command and it's just a black screen. I guess this doesn't work with MIUI 12.5.1, and that means Im stuck without root thanks to xiaomi
I also tried the adb command to remove magisk modules, didn't work, says inaccessable or not found

Cmn, stop blame Xiaomi and read and learn more before doing something that can mess up ur phone. Just a friendly advice
If u can boot to fastboot u can try to flash a stock ROM using MiFlash with "keep user data" checked....maybe u'll be lucky and ur phone will boot normally.

...But they did tho
The phone boots now, but still, I lost magisk and now I cannot install it on this update.
The phone also can't pass safetynet for some reason, despite having stock boot.img restored and leaving no trace of magisk.
All that could've been avoided if the device just did as it was told to, not to automatically update itself.

12.5.1
flashing stock boot.img of 12.5.1 (extracted using payload dumper tool) solved the issue
However, I can't root rhe phone on this update anyway, tried to boot alphatwrp and failed, Also safetynet fails

Safetynet fails because of the unlocked bootloader (most probably). Being unable to use TWRP is strange. Did u use the correct command in fastboot mode (fastboot boot xxxxx.img)? Also, what error did u get when TWRP failed to boot?

Thanks for the reply, yep unlocked bl also could be a reason, I want to think reasonably now
No error when booting twrp, just a black screen, tried to press power button or vol buttons and swipe on screen to unlock (even tho nothing appears) and its still a black screen.
Ill post on alphatwrp, maybe it doesn't support miui 12.5.1 firmware.

Strange....TWRP works fine with my xiaomi.eu weekly ROM (which is 12.5.x version), so I guess this isn't the problem. Seems ur issue is over my knowledge, so....I give up lol

Maybe due to the difference between global and eu roms
Ik you gave all you can but what would you suggest to do for my situation in order to root this phone and pass safetynet again?

have you double checked it's not a corrupt twrp img, and that you are using the '2' version of twrp? (there's two floating around) from here

Download the TWRP again.
Follow the guide with pictures: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/4288121/post-85137963
Do Clean Flash custom ROMs steps up to step 13. Ignore step 8, 9 and the flash part of 12.
If this way still can't get you TWRP, then you might want to try latest MIUI by Xiaomi.eu. Read somewhere it has built in TWRP, so once flashed, you have TWRP. Verify yourself by reading in other posts though.
Remember
EEA (official) is different from Xiaomi.eu (custom ROM)

Question Poco F3 twrp problems

I unlocked phone as normal and flashed twrp to slots A and B but in twrp it shows no internal storage, I tried every solution, but nothing worked. Only thing that worked was flashing xiaomi.eu stable via fastboot. When I enter twrp with xiaomi.eu flashed all files are shown, but i can't boot back into system (after restart it comes back to twrp). I don't really know what to do I can stick to stable xiaomi.eu, but I can't update it, I can't install any other custom rom, and MiFlash as always throws errors left and right. It's my first dual slot phone, before I didn't have any problems with other Xiaomi devices. I hope someone can help, things I tried:
-wipe everything
-change file format
-relock bootloader
-reflash twrp
-flashing different twrp
Thanks in advence if someone manage to help.
EDIT
I bought USB OTG adapter and can flash from usb stick, only problem is that i can't transfer files from PC to phone while in twrp.

You relock the bootloader, with Xiaomi.eu ??
Are you able to get to TWRP?
If you are not able to use TWRP, find Xiaomi repair center to revive your device.

So it is twrp fault? And if it is will it maybe work in future?

Then MiFlash is your hope.
Use the 20210226 version.
Do not lock bootloader in MiFlash.
Post screenshots what error it's showing to you, so people know what it means.

You said your phone works if flashing xiaomi.eu stable via fastboot.
Maybe try Xiaomi.eu again, at least getting a working phone.
Then use the built-in updater to update. Hope this work.

I guess that's my only option but it's not ideal and I can only flash the one stable version that is avaible via fastboot. Thanks for trying to help if latest official won't work with MiFlash im gonna use xiaomi.eu. Maybe in the future twrp update will solve that issue.

Try the built-in updater to update.
I read somewhere here saying you can flash update zip through built-in updater. (Tap the MIUI 12 icon a few times)
Read from Xiaomi.eu tutorial to update:
https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads...all-xiaomi-eu-rom-for-xiaomi-redmi-k40.60379/
If following their tutorial but you still cannot update, you can ask them how to, or read some replies there to see if there's similar cases.

The tutorial is how to update in case rom is fastboot variant since twrp is avaible xiaomi.eu roms are twrp only. It's working fine I will wait for new twrp version and then try.
Worst thing is that I can't go back to stock rom.

I went through something like this as well.
As long as you can boot into fastboot. Then no worries. Just Flash the official stockrom. If something goes wrong. Reboot into fastboot (everytime you do something through fastboot. If you keep doing multiple processes, you'll keep having errors, always. Well that's what I went through. Rebooting into fastboot fixed my problem)
But your last pic declares that it was successfully flashed though.

When u flash xiaomi.eu, u set up the pin/pattern code in order to decrypt the internal storage in twrp?
Idk what's happening there.
It's just, flash xiaomi.eu via fastboot, boot it and set up pin/pattern code, fastboot boot twrp.img, go to twrp, insert the pin or pattern to decrypt internal storage and flash the latest update from xiaomi eu, simple as that..
And I don't get what's the A or B slot thing, I didn't had to chose or touch any of that, I saw that thing in twrp but didn't touched it..
