twrp has a bug and cant decrypt your data. before using twrp please format your userdata partition in fastboot by using this command: fastboot format userdata

I have the same issue, it asks me for a password when accessing TWRP because it couldn't decrypt. I've tried both the command above (fastboot format userdata & format data from TWRP directly) and I can access TWRP but when I restart the phone, I have boot loop on the loading screen.
If I don't use the command, and restart the phone directly (not going into TWRP first), the flashed recovery is automatically replaced with the MIUI recovery.
Anyone managed to actually boot the phone with the TWRP recovery installed with no decrypt error?
Thanks

What did you install afterwards? did you clean install xiaomi.eu from twrp or updated china rom?

Hi,
I didn't install xiaomi.eu afterwards neither updated the china rom. I'm using china rom (I live in China so there's some stuff on the chinese rom I can use and the updates are more swift), but it's the latest chinese miui rom with the update that came out a few days ago. I had the mi max 2 before and never had to update or re-install a rom after flashing TWRP. With the mi max 2 there were no issues after flashing TWRP in fastboot and then go to TWRP and flash super su. Do you reckon if I flash TWRP then flash the china rom through TWRP it won't give a boot loop (won't it re-write the TWRP bootloader with the miui one?)? If so, should I run the erase data command from fastboot or erase the data partition on TWRP recovery?
There's also a zip file to be installed in TWRP to avoid boot loop (can't recall the name right now), but didn't work either.
If someone has any ideas I'm willing to try on my end to figure this out
Thanks

Flashed TWRP again, did a userdata format from fastboot, then went to the recovery, deleted dalvik/cache and re-installed China ROM... Still stuck on boot loop.

same for me......... please help

Come on! Guys!
It is so simple to bypass this Internal Storage(0MB) problem on official China rom (Stable and Beta) of TWRP!
DO NOT use the "Install" option in TWRP to install Magisk.zip/Superusr.zip as TWRP cannot read your Internal Storage at all!
Just activate the adb sideload in TWRP and use the adb sideload command on your PC to push the magisk.zip/Superusr.zip or any zippies into your internal storage especially so if you are rooting the official China rom!
After that. Reboot to system from TWRP and Bingo! Your official China rom/MIUI pops up nicely in no time! :fingers-crossed:
...and the best part of it. You don't need to format data at all! All your data remained intact!!!
I'm running the official China rom 9.6.11.0 with Magisk 16.0 now! All work perfectly including the ever-most-impoartant's Titanium backup! :fingers-crossed::victory:

Please, make and example, how can we use adb sideload on PC. Thank

Nah!
I will not spoon feed. Go Google on how to use adb sideload with twrp.
In that way, you learn.

How to update to miui 10 ?

So I'm on miui 9 (9.6.4) rooted with redwolf recovery(note 5 pro).
Can someone please explain to me how do i upgrade to miui 10 since i cannot update through normal OTA .
Also is it worth upgrading to miui 10?
Thanks in advance!

miui10.0.4 is out, its similar to miui9.6.x with few interface differences! still on 8.1 Oreo
since you are rooted.
1. download the recovery version of the ROM from http://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.0.4.0....roGlobal_V10.0.4.0.OEIMIFH_9aa5f799fe_8.1.zip
2. put it on sdcard or usb otg drive
3. simply flash it
4. if you wana do clean flash, you have to re format your data partition
5. once miui 10.0.0.4 is flashed, reboot it, let the first boot done! , once rebooted, come back to recovery again and try to flash magisk or any other kernel...
I magisked my device before rebooting on miui10.x and it went on bootloops! later i had to change my /data parition to-from xfat/ext4 and wipe etc then finally i was able come out from bootloops!
and ofcourse! ALWAYS MAKE BACKUP !! (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED)

the best way is.. to use fastboot rom.. latest 10.0.4 use miflash this will make rom all stock recovery ect.. so if you want to use twrp again and root you must install twrp again since fastboot restores stock recovery.. just make sure in miflash at bottom dont select clean and lock.. or itll lock bootloader..select clean all.

How to encrypt phone again?

I unlocked and rooted my 8T as described in this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...de-unlocking-bootloader-twrp-rooting-t4031831
I made decryption including format Data and installing Universal DM-Verity and ForceEncrypt disabler, also installed stock EEA V11.0.3.0.PCXEUXM (MIUI10) and Magisk
All working fine except phone password lock, and as I read now, locks don't work on decrypted phone. So I decide to encrypt my phone back. But it does not work, when I pressed "encrypt phone" button in privacy settings it just reboot and nothing happened.
I tried OrangeFox recovery, made all steps as described here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-8/how-to/guide-flashing-miui-ota-rom-recovery-t4041591
but still the same trouble.. So, how to encrypt phone with stock rom, root and recovery?

Yes, I want encrypted phone.
How it possible with Magisk and recovery?
I need flash fresh EEA 11.0.3.0 from Miflash, than install recovery and Magisk. And what else?
If I install Dm-Verity path, than I need format data and decrypt phone.
If I skip Dm-Verity installation, than I will have a bootloop.

flash the fastboot rom from mi flash and boot it till android setup....you don't necessarily have to set up your phone right now(you can setup your phone no issue though)...then flash orangefox recovery....then in orangefox settings->miui ota settings-> tick everything except Disable Forced Encryption...then flash stock recovery rom through orangefox once....after that flash magisk.... don't flash dm verity....now reboot.
Do not format data in any step..

Seems that OrangeFox do his job well. Now I have encrypted phone with root, and recovery handling my password and decrypt data if need.
Strange, that menu items "Disable DM-Verity" and "Disable forced encryption" gray in my Orangefox any time from initial installation, but everything looks OK in system...

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 !
