This is Recovery ROM that can be flashed using Mi Updater or from twrp or orange recovery
You will get latest fastboot ROM from en.miui.com/a-234.html site

MIUI 10 Global 9.1.24 ,,, ARB4 is already active,
1. keep latest copy miui10.2.1 in your pc / sd card ( RECOVERY ROM MIUI10.2.1 DOWNLOAD LINK <----1.7gb
2. ALSO for safty purposes, download FASTBOOT ROM VERSION OF MIUI10.2.1 ALSO, if anything goes wrong, fastboot version can reset Stock Recovery and persist.img also! (which is altered some times while flashing custom roms and/or GAPPS)
FASTBOOT ROM MIUI 10.2.1 DOWNLOAD LINK
3. I USE 'ORANGE FOX RECOVERY' ORANGEFOX 8.3 which is BUILT on twrp-3.2.3-2 --- (DOWNLOAD, UNZIP, USE THE .IMG FILE )
4. Buttt [unofficial] twrp-3.2.3-5 (OTA support for miui and fixed /data encryption for miui10.2.1, ) is released, orange fox is outdated but works very well, however you can use unofficial TWRP 3.2.3-5 also, I have used it, its okay! DOWNLOAD LINK TWRP 3.2.3-5
5. use gapps micro, as anything above micro, always flash pixel launcher! along with given launcher in custom rom, but its your choice
6. DONOT USE MAGISK 18.0,,, stick to MAGISK17.1, because 18.x uses different script to repack /ramdisk folder in kernel. so if you wana flash/test other kernels like latest DERP, Latest insignex, or Agni etc,,,, orangefox and twrp will give you error "cannot extract /ramdisk" ... UNLESS You RESTORE BOOT IMAGE from backup FOR THAT ROM (if you had taken backup at the time of initial flashing) or REFLASH the ROM.
--- hence i stick to magisk 17.1
6b . Orange Fox in Jan19 did mention that they are supporting magisk 18.0 script and once twice i was able to flash kernels also over magisk 18.0 but mostly i got errors!

Yes you can but there is no guarantee that the gsi/sgsi will boot or if booted will work properly. Only testing will tell.

Stuck on MIUI pie latest beta!

Actually I flashed MIUI 10 pie beta yesterday and now because of battery drain issues and bugs I want to go to another ROM which is masik 3.3 which is based on Oreo.
I am not sure what to do.
Should I directly install masik 3.3 by doing clean flash over Miui Pie beta or should I first go to Developer/Stable Oreo based MIUI 10 ROM and then clean flash Masik 3.3?
What abour ARB/firmware?Thanks!
First oreo latest stabil miflash to flash. After install twrp and masik 3.3 clean flash
Second option (I did it already). Flash via Mi Flash latest stable.
The first option will soft brick your device.

I tried using mi flash but device id not showing.
To confirm I type adb devices in command prompt. List of devices attached is showing empty. After that i tried installing new updates drivers but nothing helped. I am on windows 10. ADB drivers are also installed. Platform tools too. I did all but list of devices is showing empty in fastboot mode. Though I can see adb devices when in recovery or in system. I don't know what to do. can you help please?

Well I tried it but didn't work.
Instead now I am flashing Pixel Experience and then after going to pixel experience, I will go to latest MIUI stable ROM available on Xiaomi website and then never go to Miui beta Pie update unless stable version comes. Too much headache. lol
But thank you all who responded

I recovered my phone by flashing Stock ROM "miui_HMNote5HMNote5ProGlobal_V10.2.1.0.OEIMIXM_5191f339c3_8.1.zip" via TWRP. It will overwrite TWRP with Stock Recovery, You have to reflash TWRP via fastboot.
After that you will be able to flash any Custom ROM successfully.

I was tried to direct flash with TWRP and softbrick my whyred, but I figured out when I was done flash miui 8.1, I should flash Redwolf recovery which is capable to flash persist partition to fix some of bugs acquired from downgrade. Its work for me, first I tried direct flash to miui 10.2.2.0 and its boot fine, but when I reboot, It doesnt boot up and on my pc detected as 9008 (softbrick?). Then I flash pie twrp thru fastboot and booting to twrp, flash miui beta pie and let it booting,
Second try. Now im on miui pie again LOL. then I flash miui 10.2.2.0 thru TWRP, and flash redwolf recovery, then reboot to redwolf, then flash persist.img. then boot up fine and no bug.

I flashed latest stable rom on miui pie beta through twrp. Now i cannot boot into recovery mode at all (softbrick?)
When I boot into miui, we have to setup things but when we are adding account google services stops and i see black screen , I cannot go ahead, i think zip file was not good. I dont know what to do now. I cant go to twrp neither to system and cannot flash through fastboot becuz it doent recognize adb devices

Does fastboot recognized?? If its recognized. U can fix it easily.
I was on same problem as you, but I can flash thru mi flasher. At my second try (to make my phone in same condition as before I fix it), I flash oreo recovery without reboot the device after flashing miui oreo. And then flash the persist img thru advance-terminal and its work and no softbrick anymore.

Well I went to service centre and they flashed it. I am on Stable ROM now. I couldn't through my computer because it's not recognising adb devices but recognising fastboot devices. I can't boot into any recovery other then stock even through fastboot devices. You know why? I can't find any reasons for that.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 8T - Official MIUI 11 update not available via OTA yet, how flash?

Hi,
I'm using the following version of the Xiaomi Redmi Note 8T (willow):
- Model number: Redmi Note 8T
- Android version: 9 PKQ1.190616.001
- MIUI version: MIUI Global 10.3.1 | Stable 10.3.1.0(PCXEUVF)
- Model name: M1908C3XG
So it's still the official MIUI 10 stock ROM,
the only thing I've changed is that I switched from stock to custom recovery TWRP (https://twrp.me/xiaomi/xiaomiredminote8.html) and installed a GCam mod (https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-8/themes/best-gcam-mod-redmi-note-8-t3970675).
If I press the button to check for OTA updates within MIUI it still says no updates available.
However, according to this thread it's possible to download and flash the update to MIUI 11 manually:
https://www.xda-developers.com/download-miui-11-xiaomi-redmi-note-7-pro-poco-f1/
1.) Is my understanding correct that based on my current MIUI 10 ROM,
I have to download and flash the "V11.0.1.0.PCXMIXM (Global)" one from those versions mentioned below?:
43. Redmi Note 8T (willow):
- V11.0.2.0.PCXEUXM (Europe) Download Recovery ROM Download Fastboot ROM
- V11.0.3.0.PCXEUXM (Europe) Download Recovery ROM Download Fastboot ROM
- V11.0.1.0.PCXMIXM (Global) Download Recovery ROM Download Fastboot ROM
- V11.0.1.0.PCXRUXM (Russia) Download Recovery ROM Download Fastboot ROM
2.) Is my understanding correct that this MIUI 11 ROM could be flashed without loosing the existing data (apps, pictures,...)?
If yes, what would whould be the best approach (via "Recovery ROM" or "Fastboot ROM" method),
and what do I have to select in TWRP for example so that my data doesn't get wiped during the flash?
3.) Once I've flashed this MIUI 11 ROM will it get regular updates via OTA,
or is it a kind of beta version?
Thanks and best regards

judging by the present miui version in your device it's PCXEUVF so you have a european version. You can download the latest recovery rom from here. MIUI 11 EU version will be PCXEUXM. You can flash this rom from twrp. But looking at your post seems like you haven't flashed disable dm-verity zip(a zip which prevents stock recovery from coming back after every reboot), you might end up with stock recovery which is a good thing. If you end up with stock recovery then you can just put this recovery rom in a folder named "downloaded_rom" (without quotes) in internal storage and update with updater app and your data won't be lost.
In case you want to flash some other version rom like global(PCXMIXM) or russian(PCXRUXM) then you have to download fastboot rom and mi flash from here and flash it with mi flash which will erase your data so make sure you backup your data before flashing.
Hi,
thank you very much for your reply!
Okay, so as it seems like I'm having a EU version,
based on my understanding I have to select the following MIUI 11 ROM, right?:
V11.0.3.0.PCXEUXM (Europe) Download Recovery ROM Download Fastboot ROM
Most likely I've already flashed something like "dm-verity" zip ("flashed disable dm-verity zip(a zip which prevents stock recovery from coming back after every reboot'),
because I've restarted the Redmi Note 8T several times and TWRP recovery is still available.
So what do I have to select within TWRP to flash this MIUI 11 ROM without loosing the existing data (apps, pictures,...)?
Thanks and best regards

Yes you have to select the miui 11 rom PCEUXM recovery rom if yo want to flash with twrp.
Now comes the part where you have to consider a few things.
So dm-verity and forceencrypt are different things. Sometimes both features are included in a single zip file. So if your device is decrypted you'll have to go through a lot of troubles. Search for encryption in Phone settings search bar and check if your device is encrypted or not. If your device is encrypted just flash the rom through twrp and everything will work just fine.
However if your device is decrypted then you'll face bootloop into twrp every time you dirty flash/update miui stock. To solve this do any of the following :
1. Flash stock rom though twrp as you do but after that you need to format data or else your phone won't boot.[but all your data will be lost so back it up first]
2. Flash stock mi recovery and then update through updater app.
3. Flash another recovery like orangefox which provides ability to flash miui OTA without any issues. Here's a guide for you how to flash miui using orangefox.
Hope it helps.

Hi,
thank you very much for your reply!
Okay, I've ensured that my Redmi Note 8T shows the status encrypted within the settings first.
Then I've downloaded the "V11.0.3.0.PCXEUXM" ROM from the link mentioned below (http://c.mi.com/in/miuidownload/detail?device=1900375).
I then tried to boot into TWRP recovery, but Redmi-Recovery 3.0 appeared instead.
So it seems like I haven't installed the fix which avoids TWRP recovery to be replaced by the default recovery after a reboot.
So I've just rebooted into MIUI and flashed the downloaded ZIP file of the "V11.0.3.0.PCXEUXM" ROM like decribed below:
"But looking at your post seems like you haven't flashed disable dm-verity zip(a zip which prevents stock recovery from coming back after every reboot), you might end up with stock recovery which is a good thing. If you end up with stock recovery then you can just put this recovery rom in a folder named "downloaded_rom" (without quotes) in internal storage and update with updater app and your data won't be lost."
However, initially this was not working so I had to do the following additional steps (https://www.gizchina.com/2019/10/23/how-to-download-and-install-miui-11-if-it-has-not-yet-arrived/):
"Then, we go again to the ‘About this phone’ section.
And in ‘System update’ we press a few times on the logo until a small temporary warning appears.
Then, click on the three-point menu and choose ‘Select update package’.
We look for the ‘Downloaded_rom’ folder and select the ROM that we have previously downloaded."
(Note: I had to re-install the app Mi File Manager first in order for this to work!).
However, I'm getting the following error message:
"Couldn't verify.
Looks like current ROM's network carrier type is different from that in the Recovery package.
Please download the correct ROM from MIUI forum."
I did a quick research and it seems like my Redmi Note 8T device contains a strange Vodafone branded ROM ("VF" = Vodafone ):
- Anyone with the Vodafone Custom ROM still getting updates ? (REDMI NOTE 8T) [10.3.0.1/PCXEUVF] - Xiaomi:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Xiaomi/com...one_custom_rom_still_getting/?sort=confidence
- Redmi Note 8T w NFC - Redmi Note 8/Pro/8T - Mi Community - Xiaomi:
https://c.mi.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=2576031&aid=4944161&from=album&page=1
If I remember correctly I was also wondering why it contains a pre-installed Vodafone app when uninstalling apps/de-bloating the ROM.

However, initially this was not working so I had to do the following additional steps (https://www.gizchina.com/2019/10/23/how-to-download-and-install-miui-11-if-it-has-not-yet-arrived/):
"Then, we go again to the ‘About this phone’ section.
And in ‘System update’ we press a few times on the logo until a small temporary warning appears.
Then, click on the three-point menu and choose ‘Select update package’.
We look for the ‘Downloaded_rom’ folder and select the ROM that we have previously downloaded."
(Note: I had to re-install the app Mi File Manager first in order for this to work!).
However, I'm getting the following error message:
"Couldn't verify.
Looks like current ROM's network carrier type is different from that in the Recovery package.
Please download the correct ROM from MIUI forum."
So it seems like it's the wrong ROM
But which one do I have to selected instead...?
Thanks and best regards

Did some searching and found out that you have a vodafone rom that's why there's VF in the end and not XM. I suggest you to switch to XM one using fastboot method via mi flash. After that you'll receive updates as soon as they're released by xiaomi.

Okay, will try to do this.
But this means I will loose the existing data (apps, pictures,...), right?
I hope it will still support B28 after changing from the PCXEUVF to the PCXEUXM ROM?

Yes unfortunately you will lose existing data. Backup all your data before flashing fastboot rom via mi flash. After flashing everything will work just fine

[Rom] [10] Resurrection Remix

Hey guys. Until the RR dev makes a thread, this will continue to stay in Discussion. I am NOT the dev for RR. So wanted to get the rom more exposure.
Rom: https://sourceforge.net/projects/resurrectionremix-ten/files/instantnoodlep/
Kernel source: https://github.com/luk1337/android_kernel_oneplus_sm8250
Changelog: https://get.resurrectionremix.com/ten/changelog/Changelog.txt
Be on OOS 10(both slots)(local upgrade last OOS 10 for slot b)
Flash twrp both slots(https://downloads.sourceforge.net/p...=cfhcable&r=https://forum.xda-developers.com/)
Flash rom
Reboot twrp
Wipe userdata(always a must when switching between OOS and custom)
(Optional) install kernel and magisk
Reboot
**UPDATE** this flash instructions work. I use these and ONLY these instructions. If you have a better way, good for you, but if you can't get it to boot, use these.
***UPDATE 2*** if you have installed Android 11 prior to installing this rom, you must msm back to OOS 10 and local upgrade OOS 10 again to slot b and only use Android 10 recovery
Nice one. :good:
Is twrp ok to wipe now? Or would we need stock to do so?
If the latter then may be worth booting twrp and retaining stock recovery to wipe.
Good to see a ROM thread for this.
Excellent.
My thanks to the dev too, it's appreciated.

Why to boot to twrp after flashing the rom?
We can just boot the twrp( not flash it)
Flash rom
Flash magisk ( optional)

It should be mentioned that these builds are blind builds. The Dev doesn't own the device.

Correct but doesn't matter. I tested first few builds before they were released and now alots of people used them. They aren't beta or alpha but stable. So? What's your point?

8pro has a recovery partition. So unless you flash a rom that overwrites twrp with another recovery (stock OOS, etc) then twrp will remain after rom flash

It's simple. If people run into issues or whatever he can't probably fix it. It was the same with treskmod for example.

He is blind building from latest los source that's all. Respect him for doing that, but it's not 100% guarantee for a fully working rom.

1. Is NOT useless. That is for clean flashing which is ALWAYS recommend by every dev. When you dirty flash, it's at your own peril.
And 2. Once again. The OnePlus 8 pro has a recovery partition. So twrp does not get overwritten when you flash a rom. Like on 7 pro, we had to flash twrp after every rom flash. Not needed on 8 pro.

1. I think he meant to say reboot to recovery and not boot the twrp.img.
2. Yes you can boot twrp only. That's what im doing since OP7. But you will need to do this everytime you wanna flash something with twrp.

On your flashing instructions you said. "flash twrp on both slots"
So im asking one more time,... why not just to boot the twrp img on fastboot and flash the rom...
What is this about recovery partition ... everybody knows that the 8 pro has a separate recovery partition
EDIT..Reboot to twrp after flashing the Rom is useless...
I insist. .dont needed

It's in the pic I uploaded. Even the twrp dev said to flash it. So you won't have to fastboot boot anymore. Once you flash it. It's on your phone and won't go away when you reboot recovery
Every phone used to have a boot(kernel) partition, system partition, modem/radio partition, bootloader, userdata, and a few other INCLUDING recovery partition. Recently, the recovery was missing but now it's back. So we no longer have to have to boot twrp but flash it
Hello everyone, I need help installing this rom please, I have the latest TWRP 3.4.0-14-Mauronofrio installed in both slots, latest stable OOS in both slots, I have an IN2025 and for some reason I get this error with TWRP. Thanks in advance guys.

That is strange. I also have 2025. Try moving the rom to phone instead of usb device. Since this is an updated twrp may be an issue. However. I did NOT have OOS installed on both slots. I flashed latest OOS full rom, used OOS recovery to wipe data. Booted and then flashed twrp to both slots, flashed RR, reboot recovery and flashed magisk

Question Help: Can't flash twrp recovery from PC to my Phone (F3)

I successfully unlocked my bootloader, then I tried flashing the twrp by following munchy's tutorial from YouTube (as someone recommended here). I also used the twrp recovery file he provided in the description, by using the latest platform tools from the official website. It was going pretty good. I even got the TeamWin logo, and also loaded up the twrp interface, and was able to navigate through it. But the problem was my internal storage wasn't showing up. So I booted back to my system normally to see If I can find a solution. Then I think I tried again after restarting to see if it fixes itself, but the same problem was persisting. The next time when I tried again, I used the latest twrp version which I downloaded from the official twrp website.
But since my 3rd attempt, I am not able to see any TeamWin recovery come up on my phone, when I connect I do the "fastboot boot (twrp filename)" command in cmd. When I do the command, nothing shows up. The device remains in the Fastboot mode, or just turns off. When I switch it back on, It turns on normally and boots into the phone without any issues, and I can use it. I've tried switching back to the original twrp version munchy used in the above linked video, but same result.
What did I do wrong here? How do I make my phone get into the twrp recovery when I enter the fastboot boot (twrp filename) command thru my PC? How do I make my Internal Storage available to view int he TWRP recovery so I can install it from my Downloads folder? I am on MIUI 14.0.4 If that helps. My end goal is to install Magisk.
Any tips/guides/suggestions are appreciated.
Installing TWRP and root does not erase your data.
Remove security from the lock screen. (decryption).Normally the latest TWRP decrypts the data.
Install Platform tools ,put the TWRP in the folder and run the commands from the folder.
TWRP SKK, Use A12 if your system is in A12/A13 if system A13.
Rename it to twrp.img
CMD
fastboot boot twrp.img
Powershell
./fastboot boot twrp.img
Once booted, go to Advanced -> Press "Flash current TWRP"
If offered, both slots.

Thank you. I had put backed the screen lock after the first 2 attempts because someone said to to that on a YT video after they faced the same problem. Now I tried again by removing the screen lock and the latest twrp for my device also boots up just fine. Now the problem Is I still can't access my internal storage .
Still having removed the screen security?
Which rom(fullname)?
Which TWRP?
Try to mount storage.

Yes, I removed the screen security, though I can enter TWRP, I can't read the internal storage. MIUI 14.0.4.
I just watched a YT video where the dude does the following:
-TWRP Recovery
- Wipe
- Format Data
- Types 'yes'
then
-TWRP Recovery
- Reboot
- Recovery
- Do not Install
After coming back to recovery after rebooting, he gets a pop up, which at the swipe says "Swipe to allow for modifications" which he swipes, then now after checking the Internal Storage, It's readable now. Is this a possible solution?
Twrp A13, obviously if you don't want to keep the data.
Twrp/wipe format data type yes/reboot TWRP.
If error red lines, reboot TWRP and repeat the operation.
Sideload roms or use OTG.

what's twrp A13? Also, I just unlocked my bootloader a few hours ago, so my phone has already done a factory reset and i don't have anything to lose except the Magisk APK and .img file in my phone.
But I have a question, will doing the format data just do a factory reset, or will I lose my ROM? Because I'm not trying to install a custom ROM, I just want to Install Magisk as the end goal with my current ROM.
MIUI 14 Android 13 so use this TWRP
plugged the phone into the PC when it is on the TWRP, you will have access to the internal storage. (works on my 12 pro aves twrp A13 Skk).
twrp-3.7.0_12-v7.5_A13-alioth-skkk.img
I'm using the latest one I could find on the TWRP website for my device. Not aware If it supports Android 13 though as it isn't mentioned on the website. Just asking my prev question, will doing the format data from TWRP just do a factory reset, or do I lose the ROM and will have to install a custom ROM?
second question I forgot to ask in my prev post, after i do the format data and put the Magisk APK and twrp img file again on my device, will my device stay decrypted as I formatted the data, or will the problem persist?
sorry If i sound dumb

Use this TWRP(officiel).
twrp-3.7.0_12-v7.5_A13-alioth-skkk.img
thank you, this is the one I was looking for. Sorry to bother you again, now I installed the Magisk V26.1 apk from TWRP. And when I boot back to system and try opening the magisk manager, this happens. It says downloading, forever. I think I shouldn't have directly downloaded the latest version. So probably have to downgrade it a bit. For that, what will I have to do?
Can I just hold the Magisk icon, and uninstall it simply like any other app? Or do I have to do it from the TWRP? Also, Is it necessary for me to uninstall it before downgrading, or can I just download the apk of older magisk version and flash it from twrp just like I did previously?
It was on my first post.

Hm ok.
Welp for me on AOSP, it works nicely. I flash a new build (or two) every week. Backup/Restore works as should. UI is nice and modern, imo better than TWRP. That's why I'm recommending it.
Haven't heard anyone saying that they can't view Phone storage on OrangeFox.
Hi,
@NOSS8 , I'd like to ask : I've only some hours to wait to unlock the BL. But one question, as it's yet the stock rom (FW V13.0.11.0, A12), wich twrp should I use ? I want to install a A13 rom (that supposes FW V 14.xxx !)
So :
- fastboot boot twrp (but wich one ?? A12 or 13 ?? ; skkk ? Or ?) (+ "flash current twrp" OR "install it in ramdisk"?)
- reboot recovery
- flash FW V14.xxx
- flash rom
- format data
- reboot system
- flash magisk (last version ? Seems to be 'big' changes ?)
- flash what I need (V4A, DFE (??), ....)
What do you think ?
Thanks a lot ! Main question is about what version of twrp.. Help will be very appreciated !

Instead, use Miflash with a Fastboot rom, you can extract the boot img for root.(don't re lock the bootloader).
You can root without TWRP, but according to this thread, if you root you lose the TWRP and vice versa, I don't know if this is still relevant.(I don't have this device).
If you need ,install the TWRP A13 after flashing the A13.

I'm very greatfull for your quick reply ! Thanks
The device is too a Poco f3, sorry.. This doesn't need to flash magisk for twrp to stick (I had another one I've broken)
But I don't understand what's the advantage to first flash a fastboot rom..? As you say to flash twrp would loose root and vice versa... (I've read the thread you're talking about ofox)
So I wanted to go trough +- the way I mentionned, as A13 as well as ofox 'seems' to work (but I'm carefull with that twrp on stock MIUI A12, and I never used ofox..)
So you do think it's a bad idea ?? The rom I want to flash is crdroid.
I'm more lost now ...
Thanks again !
