I have updated to pie today nd my phone is rooted nd twrp recovery
Now I want to format my phone so pls help I have never done it before
If you want a full stock device, the right thing to do is use the unbricking tool, it flashes the ROM from the base and relock the bootloader.
But you can just flash the OOS 9 in twrp without compatibility zip, flash the stock recovery in fastboot ( fastboot flash recovery recovery.img ) and relock the bootloader ( fastboot oem lock ).
This is a good guide for the second method.

Hi guys,
I just Root my phone and tried to flash recovery.img from twrp. After I did and it restart but keep boot into bootloader, I tried to boot into recovery mode and it's failed. What I try, boot into recovery mode via tethered temp recovery and flash a new rom which I downloaded here. Now the problem... My phone bricked and unable to boot into user surface.... HELP!!!! please!!!:crying::crying::crying:
You must unlock the bootloader to have twrp.
And some rom require unlocked bootloader
you want TWRP ? please unlock bootloader first
Use fastboot to reflash a stock rom and recovery.
Then unlock your bootloader and flash twrp.
Afterwards, you can flash a custom rom.
Hi,
My phone is rooted and the DPI was customized. I tried to manually flash the OTA but the installation got stuck so I cannot boot into Android anymore. I tried those restore tutorials but when I try to flash using fastboot I get a "FAILED (remote: Permission denied). I tried to clear the cache in the recovery and then it got also stuck and now I can't access recovery.
This is what I can read in the bootloader
---------------------------
FASTBOOT MODE
PRODUCT_NAME - Z00A
VARIANT - ASUS_Z00A
HW_VERSION -
BOOTLOADER VERSION - unknown
IFWI - 0094.0177
SERIAL NUMBER - Xxxxx....
SIGNING - ?
SECURE_BOOT - ?
continue fastboot process

I just been successful in installing TWRP recovery using the toolkit.
Edit: I installed the latest CM 13 build and it can't boot to Android. It goes straight to TWRP recovery no matter how I turn on the phone. My bootloader still looks the same.
Edit: I tried flashing a prerooted .img and stock recovery and I can go back to recovery but I still can't boot into Android or factory reset or nothing.... I'm desperate!

You may need to flash boot.img and droidboot.img for the same version of rom you flashed, ie. if you flashed 139 then you must flash the recovery, boot and droidboot images for 139...
As you found the pre-root rom files, download the whole file and flash these image files too making sure you use the right commands or you will brick your phone...
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash fastboot droidboot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
Just remember, flashing these partitions can, potentially, brick your phone. You do this at your own risk...
Happy flashing....

Thanks for your help. I did that earlier with the latest pre-rooted OTA and now it gets stuck on the splashscreen. I tried going to recovery (stock now) and doing a factory reset after flashing system.img and it still the splashscreen after I reboot. I know the 1st boot after flahing a ROM can be long, but now it's been an hour and I'm still on the splash screen...
The only other thing I can recommend is to flash a RAW rom image. As I have never needed to do this I can't say how this works but if you do a search you should find out the procedure...
This may relock your bootloader so just be aware....
Ok. Guys my mandatory 720hrs of waiting will be up in a week. So can anyone guide me regarding flashing twrp on this device in a permanent fashion. I intend to stay on the current miui10.8.20 latest beta as I find it perfectly useable, however I do wanna use gcam ( plz guide on that as well). And one last thing, can I update to any latest official beta available through ota. ( Will it relock my device?) Or will I only lose twrp which I persume I can flash again.
Xiaomi phones have a real typical root method. I am not new to rooting at all but kindly help me through this.
One last thing.. any recommendations for miui based custom ROMs?
My device is the global variant of note 5.
Flashing twrp : put your device in fastboot mode and enter these fastboot commands
fastboot boot twrp.img
Now copy twrp.img to internal storage
From twrp recovery install twrp.img this will permanently flash twrp recovery
Follow google camera mod thread
Yes you can flash OTA update using twrp recovery and it won't lock bootloader
Just flash magisk for rooting

Have you rooted your device?
Hi,
I recently installed magisk, then xposed and my phone went into bootloop. I reflashed with original boot image and wipped data and it was starting ok.
Then i installed magisk threw TWRP.
But the OTA would not work.
Si I'd like to flash the stock rom to restart from zero.
Can I just flash it like that, with mi flash ?
Or do I have first to unroot ? And to relock bootloader ?

no need of unrooting and never lock your bootloader with custom recovery or rom .
I recommend you to flash the stock rom in edl mode , connect your device in fastboot mode to your PC and open command prompt in your adv/fastboot folder .
then type the command : fastboot oem edl , the screen of the device will turn off , but notification led will blink , then flash stock firmware via MiFlash, after flash completed , hold power button for about 10 seconds(until you feel the vibration)
Thanks Mate ! I do this rght now !
(my phone is out: only starting if I install magisk with TWRP... Flashing the stock boot img will go in boot loop. So weird that let's go back to the stock )

Where i can download stock firmware sir ?
Screwed up my Realme Pro 6 by upgrading to V11 and 2UI, and then trying to downgrade by flashing an earlier version of TWRP with the idea of restoring a backup of an earlier version of the V10. The phone loops back to fastboot mode after any command that is given from my PC with "fastboot flash recovery Twrprecovery.img". or other TWRP versions that I tried. Selecting RECOVERY in bootloader mode on the phone loops the phone back to the fastboot mode. Not sure how to fix this, and the Realme Flash Tool does not flash a ROM for this phone and, for some reason, sayoaks excellent flashing tool, "Realme Flash Tool (RFT)" V1.1.1 fails during the flashing process of a complete ROM. I'm left with just trying to flash a recovery partition with no success. Any ides?
