I can't reflash stock recovery

Hi, yestarday I flashed CM 14 with TWRP to try it, and today I have tried to return to stock rom & recovery but I can't do it. At the beginning I have tried to flash stock recovery that I have downloaded from op.net with fastboot and I couldn't do it and after I have tried to do the same process but this time flash it with TWRP and also this time I couldn't able to fix it. In fine I have installed the stock ROM via TWRP and I managed to install it but now the problem is that I still can not install the stock recovery and accordingly I can't install op3 update.
An another problem is that I have tried to re-lock OEM from fastboot and when I try to turn on the phone, is asks me a pin to enable it and I don't know that pin because I haven't set no one

No it isn't. Because I managed to put stock ROM into it via adb with push command and after I have installed it from twrp that works. My only problem is that i can't flash stock recovery.
i have the same issue. Tried many times but i'm getting a black screen after one plus logo for both stck recovery and unmodified twrp. only moidified twrp is working. please let me know if u find a way to resolve this.
thanks in advance

you can reboot in to stock recovery without any issues?? I think I should give it a try. And you are saying the bootloader is locked again ?

Great. Can I place the file in beta8 rom .zip file and flash it using adb ??
If this procedure doesn't you can download an older version of oxygen os and update it via ota. At the first attempt when you will try it will give you an error and at the second attempt It will download all the ROM again and it will reflash by itself

I suggest you to try at the beginning with the beta 7 because if that procedure not work for you, you can't downgrade to beta 7.

Thank you.
Will let you know if it worked.
I had that problem.
Solution as follows, worked everytime for me: (I have not tried this method with the newest beta 8)
1. Flash OOS 3.2.6 firmware in twrp.
2. Reboot to fastboot and flash official oxygen os recovery downloaded from the OnePlus website. (This is still the old version for some reason, thus why it won't work)
3. Side load community build with oxygen os recovery, this will flash the new firmware back and update the recovery to be community build compatible.
4. Before rebooting erase everything (factory restore)
5. Reboot to OOS, finish setting up.
6. Turn on advance reboot in developer settings.
7. Reboot to recovery via the reboot menu. First time boot into the recovery may take sometime, but it has always worked for me.
8. After everything looks good, go ahead and OEM lock in fastboot, recovery should work as usual this time and format your phone
OP did you find a solution to this?? Im on the same boat as you

[Help] Phone is not booting custom ROM

Hello I have a Redmi 1S-TD running MIUI 8 latest China developer ROM. I have been trying to install TWRP for a few days but there's something wrong with my phone. I used the fastboot tools to flash TWRP and it said "Writing Recovery OK" but when I boot into recovery it shows Xiaomi logo and then reboots. When I boot into recovery mode after that it reverts back to Mi Recovery 2.0.1.
Also the "fastboot boot recovery.img" is not working for me. It always stucks at "Booting..." and it says Transmission OK on my phone but it won't boot into TWRP.
Please help I don't know what's the problem with my phone
Edit: it should be Custom Recovery on the title not Custom ROM

When I try to flash using MiFlash it shows Partition table doesn't exist.
Re:flash TWRP
Use stock MI Recovery to flash
download twrp.zip and rename it to update.zip
put it on your internal storage and boot to recovery
find and select update.zip then flash.

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?

Install Pie and MIUI Pie Recovery. Then, from recovery, boot to bootloader and check in PC if it's listed.

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.
