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.

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:

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..

How To Guide TWRP + Root

Hi all. Hope you are good and safe from Covid-19.
If you like TWRP as your recovery and want to keep root access as well, I am going to show you how to do that. Because if you take the stock boot.img and patch it via magisk, you will lose TWRP as your recovery and if you flash TWRP then you will lose root access. For the advance users, they probably already know how to do this but I haven't seen any guides so I am creating one myself.
Disclaimer:
I am a Textile engineer and do not have the slightest idea about computer engineering but my passion for computers and gadgets has taught me all this.
So, if anything happens to your device, it's not on me. I have done this on my device and it worked, so I am sharing this knowledge with you guys.
Let's cut to the chase and start our work:
Before we start, I am hoping you have your bootloader unlocked and have previous experience on flashing roms.
Step 1: Installing Stock/Xiaomi.EU/Custom rom
Go ahead and install one for your favorite roms from the threads. Luckily, Poco F3 has so many roms to choose from and they're all good.
Step 2: Installing magisk.apk
Install Magisk.apk from here
Step 3: Installing TWRP
Install TWRP from @vasishath's thread. (You'll lose root access if you had any).
Step 4: Backing up your boot image
- Boot into TWRP recovery and select backup.
{
"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_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
- Tick on boot and untick rest of the boxes.
- This will create 3 files in your TWRP folder on the phone. "boot.emmc.win" is your main file that you want to patch via magisk.
- After creating a backup of your boot image, boot into system normally.
Step 5: Patching the backed up boot image
- Open Magisk app and tap on install next to magisk.
- Now select "Select and Patch a file".
- Go ahead and select the boot.emmc.win file that is in your TWRP folder created earlier via TWRP backup.
- This is patch the boot.emmc.win and name it something like "magisk_patched-23000_randomalphanumeric.img"
- Rename the file via any file explorer to boot.img because something when the phone is plugged into the pc, your pc can't read the file. So, just to be safe, unplug the phone and re-plug to read the drive again.
- Copy this boot.img and take it to the folder where fastboot is installed/saved.
Final Step: Flashing the boot.img
- Reboot your phone to fastboot mode via pressing and holding the volume down + power buttons (or if you have custom roms installed and have the option to boot into fastboot mode directly).
- Once in fastboot mode, type following to flash the boot.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
- once the flashing is done (in about 5-10 seconds), type the following:
fastboot reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Congratulations! you now have TWRP installed as your recovery and have root access as well. To verify this you should have the below screen in your magisk app
If my guide helped you in any way, please do like it as it motivates me to write more guides to take my time out from my busy work life.
Thanks.

Very detailed and comprehensive guide indeed, however I just unlocked my almost a week now. Initially, I have 3 choices on how I will run my device after unlocking bootloader.
Either I use XiaoMi.EU testing non-root, AOSP non-root or worse can scenario I'll root and run it on stock firmware.
No I do not think that F3 users are lucky, instead I think the reality is the trend of really good coders and programmers have past. You think F3 have a huge variety of custom roms to choose? 90%+ above are based on AOSP, which I don't understand why we have 10+ AOSP roms, with only 1-2 difference. It's such a waste of time. They are only interested in making new custom roms, never in maintaining them. Always abandon project and go missing after a while. This generation is full of "enthusiasts", "wanna-be" developers most noticeable after POCO entered India's market. You can try search in YouTube, poco f3 then you will get 70-80% of tech/mobile influencers with tons of guides. The sad part is, most of them are literally talking about the same stuff, and what I hate the most they love to decorate their website with tons of ads.

Hi,
thanks for your guide I really needed it because I already have custom ROM, root, Magisk... but TWRP I used to start it from the computer every time I needed it.
If I follow your method I don't lose the installed apps and my data, right?

There seem to be so many different guides and methods
I followed nebrassy's guide for TWRP
0. miflash latest stock -> flash desired rom
1. fastboot boot twrp.img (3.6 official)
2. advanced -> flash current twrp (now its permanent)
3. flash latest magisk alpha zip (usb otg or put in storage pre fastboot)
4. reboot.. launch magisk app -> update -> direct install -> reboot
5. profit

Hello. Could you help me with rooting my phone, please?
I'm on Xiaomi.eu 21.12.8 (the last android 12 weekly update). I tried flashing Magisk.zip with the TWRP but it didn't work at all.
It's like I never flashed it. So I decided to try your method to see if it would go any different, and it didn't.
I could root Evolution X (android 12), ArrowOS 11 and 12 with this method of flashing Magisk.zip on TWRP but I can't understand why it didn't worked on Xiaomi.eu 21.12.8. I could even root Xiaomi.eu 21.9.17, which was the last android 11 weekly update.
Desperate, I went to the "advanced" section of TWRP and there was an option of "Flash magisk alpha" and it ended up rooting the phone but I don't understand why the previous 2 methods didn't work.
Could you help me understand that?

Root only works with magisk canary in Android 12
Latest Magisk Canary release adds support for Android 12, drops MagiskHide
The newest update on Magisk's "bleeding edge" canary release channel brings in support for Android 12 and the new Zygisk feature. Read on!
www.xda-developers.com

Thank you!!
Using canary worked on xiaomi.eu, although, I still cannot understand why using the magiskv23.apk can root aosp android 12 rom but not xiaomi.eu android 12, if you could explain me, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Also, canary seems to have the magiskhide function removed, is there a way to hide it for certain apps (banks, mostly) with a module or is it disabled permanently now?

How do I flash the canary version of magisk though? I have an A12 rom on my F3. I can't flash it in TWRP as I can't mount any partitions to see the file. And I can't flash it via adb sideload as it crashes my TWRP immediately.
Any advice or suggestions? Thanks.

You can use this TWRP.
Download this: twrp-3.6.0_11-v3.2_A12-alioth-skkk.img
From this link: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=322193
This one is able to see the internal storage of the phone with android 12. But you need to remove your screen lock to do so, you must not have a password set up so TWRP can see your internal storage, then just flash magisk normally and afterwards set up your screen lock again. Everytime you want to see the internal storage, disable screen lock. Also, you could follow the tutorial in the first post, but instead of making a backup of boot with TWRP, just use boot.image from the desired ROM, patch it with magisk and then flash the boot using adb.
Hope it helps.

TUTORIAL- How To- Downgrade To Lolipop 5.1.1, Galaxy S6 edge+ [UPDATED GUIDE]

- WARNING -
This Guide is not failproof, if you do anything wrong with your device while following this guide, i won't be held responsible if you brick or hard damage your device. I insist about that but you must extract all of your data (Photos, Videos, Music, Apps, Accounts, Messages, ETC) Before proceeding or else you will end up with a loss of data, again i'm still not responsible if you lose all of your data without backing up. I WARNED YOU.
Well, you have a Galaxy S6 edge+ lying around and you want to get back to Lolipop? You want to downgrade? Well then you're in the right place!
So......downgrading to lolipop...... some people claimed it can be done by deleting some file in the odin .tar but that never worked for me.
If you have the sw rev check fail error upon downgrading....this is the guide for you!
This will wipe all your data including internal storage (depending on how you do it)
Confirmed working on my Galaxy S6 edge+ SM-G928F [It should work on Note5 but no promises from now on]
Advantages :
Downgrade procedure is safe, simple.
Your phone should boot faster
battery life should last longer [i said it should]
You can get the animated lock screen animations back.
Get old touchwiz back. [i like the 5.1.1 version]
disadvantages:
1. You cannot boot TWRP while on the downgraded bootloader
2. You will only have system-wide root. DO NOT flash systemless or it will not boot (but nobody cares)
3. Fingerprint is not working (still working on that)
4. You can only flash stock nougat from odin. You cannot flash lolipop, marshmallow tar,twrp tar,cf auto root tar or anything else [except if you have a combination firmware]
Ok, let's get started.
Requirements :
A laptop or home PC : At least running Windows 8/8.1 or Windows 10
Your device
Genuine Samsung charging cable [NOT SPONSERED]
Stable internet connection.
Files :
The lastest SAMSUNG Drivers which can be found here : https://developer.samsung.com/android-usb-driver
Odin3 : https://www.samsungodindownload.com/fr/download-for-windows
The firmware you want to downgrade to : I will link my ROM so u can install it.
TWRP [Newest version] : https://twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxys6edgeplus.html
Classy Kitchen [for bulding your rom] : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...kitchen-for-android-roms-development.3862584/
Now let's get started!
Let's start first by cooking the ROM! Open Classy Kitchen, and then open the ROM you want to use :
{
"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_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Normally the first time you open the program, there shouldn't be any project [except if you used this app before]
Next click "Create new project", "From PC (Browse for one)"
And then chose the path where you saved your firmware. After chosing your firmware, Classy Kitchen will open the firmware automaticly.
After the ROM is now open, click on "ROM utils" and then click on "Deodex ROM" After you Deodex the ROM, we will have to de-bloat it.
On Classy Kitchen, click on "Debloat / Re-Bloat ROM" to Debloat your ROM.
Last step [optional] We will have to De-Knox our ROM. (again optional) But De-Knoxing our ROM can save a lot of space in our phone storage. So i recommend you do.
After De-Knoxing our ROM, we will have to disable DM-Verity Force Encryption in order to Boot into the ROM [Otherwise if you don't your phone will never boot]
Click on "Remove DM-Verity / Force Encryption"
Next that we disabled DM-Verity, We will have to remove the "meta-inf installer"
Click on "Re-Build META-INF installer" and click on remove.
Finally once we have done the modifications on our ROM, we just have to save.
Click on "Build (system.new.dat) ROM (for recovery)"
and then we are done cooking our ROM!
But the guide is not done yet. We will have to install TWRP in the phone.
HOW-TO-PROCEED?
Step-1 Press and hold the power button on your device
Step-2 Chose "Power Off"
Wait for your device to completly Shut-Off.
Step-3 Re-Boot in download mode "odin mode"
Step-4 connect the phone to your computer
Step-5 open Odin3
In Odin, we will have to install TWRP, click on the AP box and chose your TWRP file [the one that you downloaded]
Don't forget to disable "Auto-Reboot" after installation, otherwise your phone will re-boot normal into Android.
At this point, Knox is tripped in your device meaning that your warranty is now expired. Also the Knox features are no longer usable.
On TWRP, click on wipe, "Format Data". A keyboard will pop-up, type "yes"
Type "yes"
Once Data Format is completed, hit home, reboot, recovery.
your phone will reboot into recovery again, hit wipe again, this time we won't format data. Instead we're going to wipe the phone's partitions
Chose in TWRP,
Then swipe to wipe. Then hit home again. Next hit "Install"
Install the ROM you just made with Classy Kitchen. It can be found in "Documents" - "Output" - "Your-ROM"
Transfert it to your phone
Click on the ROM / ZIP file and "swipe to confirm flash"
After the flashing procedure is complete, you will have to wipe the "cache" / Dalvik.
Hit "wipe dalvik/cache"
Then "swipe to wipe"
After you wiped the cache, hit "Reboot System" and hit "Do Not Install"
One last step before you get back to Lolipop. You will need a custom Bootloader in order to boot.
Just download my "custom Bootloader" https://drive.google.com/file/d/1207Guvk8J_L9FSJv2C9BpkeLpWkXtViQ/view?usp=drive_link
After you downloaded my "custom bootloader" you will have to install it.
so get Odin3 and install my bootloader!
After the Bootloader installation is complete, you just have to reboot your device, cross your fingers and hope it boots!
Congratuations! You are back on Lolipop! Enjoy!
1 : If you want to flash a mod in TWRP, you will have to put your phone in download mode, install the stock bootloader in BL tab, install TWRP in AP tab and then click on "start"
2 : If you want to get back into marshmallow / Nougat, you just have to flash stock firmware in Odin3
If you have any issues or any questions, you can DM me but it isn't guaranteed that i will reply.

Here are some screenshots of Lolipop :

Actually i forgot to mention that you can't boot into TWRP on My custom bootloader. Get back in odin. Re-flash stock bootloader in BL Tab and flash TWRP in the AP Tab. Then try to re-boot onto Custom recovery. Tell me some news.

OK. I see the problem.

The current bootloader does not allow to Boot onto TWRP and it can't boot into stock recovery either.
Hopefully the New bootloader should fix your problem. It has stock recovery

How To Guide OxygenOS 13.1 (LE2125_13.1.0.500) for global with boot.img files

Hi,
I share with you the files for those who want to update from F21 to Android 13.1 and root the phone.
LE2125 OxygenOS 13.1.0.500
For those who get the message that the backup does not exist when uninstalling magisk by selecting image restore, you will not be able to install the update by uninstalling magisk completely , it will fail.
Here's how to do.
-uninstall magisk by selecting uninstall completely
- once the phone restarts, restart in fastboot mode
- flash the original F21 version boot image (9Pro_F21_Global ) by typing these two command lines
fastboot flash boot_a original_F.21_boot.img
fastboot flash boot_b original_F.21_boot.img
- restart the phone
-now you can install the update (you will need this apk to install the update OPLocalUpdate_For_Android13.apk)
- once the update is installed, you can root the phone.

Thanks for the info... unfortunately I don't have a computer but, what I do is install F21 stock boot image using Ex Kernel manager and after doing that it allows me to install the update. It's doing the same thing that flashing thru fastboot does except I'm just flashing the stock boot image with a kernel flasher...

Are you using the System update application? (system update apk.for Android 12)
If not use that...
Also, if you have TWRP installed that will keep the update from working correctly you'll have to install the stock boot image in a kernel manager like EKM. Besides that I'm not sure what else would cause that.. I just updated no problem it took like 2 minutes I didn't even have to flash my stock boot image this time. I thought I would have to after reading
Buu buu's post earlier.

I am, i'm probably just going to factory reset and apply the update

Can we assume that updating to this, if rooted, can take the usual route?
1. Restore images in magisk
2. Download update in oxygen updater.
3. Install the update using that other update tool, not the system one.
4. Install magisk to inactive stlot
5. And only then reboot?

Yeah and I guess you can skip "Restore images" part.
At least I did that every time i updated OSS before I went to a custom rom.
