Thank you so much. Can I flash treble gsi/sgsi ROMs?

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

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[unofficial] twrp-3.2.3-5 (OTA support for miui and fixed /data encryption for miui10.2.1, ) is released, orange fox is outdated but works very well, however you can use unofficial TWRP 3.2.3-5 also, I have used it, its okay!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!

Flash stock rom via miflasher and stay on stock. Twrp doesnt stable for pie, I had to go to stock last week - RR twrp update destroy everything.
I have no power to install custom rom again and again. Stock rom and magisk are enough.

Totaly agree with you magisk and stock, is so customisable you dont really need a custom rom, although pixel experience sounds nice, i went and got an upgrade with a second carrier to pixel 3a, not impressed at all, and cant customise it cause of carrier locked for 6 months

[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.

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.

This is something that i already know...
Questions are...
1. why to boot to twrp after flashing the rom( useless step)
2. Why to flash twrp on both slots and not inly boot it

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 Dirty flashing method in TWRP

I tried dirty flashing from miui 13.0.3 to 13.0.4 via skkk twrp 3.8 I got a lot of errors, reboot into system and got bootloop but good thing fastboot is still working so i can save my phone.
The question is how to properly dirty flash here in rooted Poco F3?
Are you on Stock MIUI or the Custom ROM Xiaomi.eu ?
I use Stock MIUI (rooted) and I just use Stock Bootloader, no TWRP.
TWRP skkk is still experimental... I don't trust it.
If you want flawless updates, I'd say flash Stock Boot.img with Fastboot, and only use TWRP by booting it from PC.
Maybe it's possible to install MIUI Updates over TWRP, but I think it's risky with TWRP skkk. It may be buggy ‍
