Hi
I followed this guide to root my son's phone
(the bootloader was already unlocked or so I tought - see below)
Now when I tried to reboot to twrp to root the phone, following these instructions in the guide:
“How To Root Mi A2 / A2 Lite Using Magisk
…
Now, boot your Xiaomi device into the TWRP Recovery Mode by pressing and holding the Volume Up and Power buttons simultaneously for a couple of seconds until the device starts booting.
…”

it does not boot to TWRP but instead displays a red error triangle with the message“The system has been destroyed”; I get exactly the same message after using the adb command
Code:
adb reboot recovery
as an alternative reboot-to-recovery method.
Reboot to system is perfectly fine!
Help anyone? Could it be the bootloader was not properly unlocked... I dit it when I received the phone and wa spretty sure it was unlocked then
Thanks

It's not a bootloader issue ,it is problem with the recovery.Use twrp 3.3.3-1-offain or 3.3.3-1dees_troy.

You need 3.3.1, not 3.3.0

Hi again @a1291762
I already downloaded and flashed the official daisy twrp but that didn't do it, 3.3.0 it was.
On the official twrp.me website there is only Dees_troy version (true I didn't try 3.3.1 - will do so tonight) - no offain version.
Just wondering, I think I saw some command in some posts to allow flashing on the Mi A2 lite - would that be required here (although not stated in the guide I referenced)?
[EDIT] found this:
I am seeing the ‘System has been destroyed’ message after installing TWRP on Mi A2 Lite (daisy)?
Then download the ‘aboot.img’ from V9.6.4.0 (Download Link), boot your Mi A2 to Fastboot Mode and flash it using the following command:
Code:
fastboot flash aboot_a aboot_9.6.4.img
fastboot flash aboot_b aboot_9.6.4.img
According to the explanation given by XDA Senior Member mac12m99, the newer bootloader (aboot.img) version checks for stock recovery, even when the bootloader is unlocked. To overcome this, you can flash an older bootloader version (Especifically from V9.6.4.0) to fix this issue.

10.0.9.0 broke all the old twrps. Only 3.3.1 works now.
The official TWRP maintainer for daisy is dees troy.
Offain does the lineage ROM for daisy. I don't know how people get links to his TWRP. Search?
That guide looks ancient. TWRP and Magisk install guides can be found in this forum... I wrote a combined one (since having both complicates OTA) but if you're doing a custom ROM... It will depend.
Many custom ROMs want an encryption Disabler fix because they can't handle the encryption (which is on even if you don't have a password).
I've seen lots of surprise by people at the processes required for this phone. It was certainly different to what I've done before, but my last phone was pre-magisk and pre-A/B partitioning so I figured that's just how things are on newer phones.

Then use 3.3.3-1 dees_troy or :
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-Enw0Kn2CAYyfN1Krv8t3CVNLyn0p0JX/view?usp=drivesdk
Here is the link for twrp 3.3.3-1 offain version ,but it is in .img format.Dont install it via fastboot or TWRP .You can boot it via this command:
fasboot boot twrp-daisy-3.3.1-0-offain.img ,install everything you want,and you'll be ok ,if you don't need permanent twrp recovery!
If you want permanent installation - I am using Android All in One tool from another XDA thread and that's what i do:
Reboot in Fastboot mode,then connect the device to PC open the all-in-one tool on your windows computer ,then click on the "Recovery Flasher and Device Rooter" button(after you see that the device is recognised in the program) ,you need to choose which version- set it to MANUAL. From there navigate to the recovery files(dees_troy and offain) in the first row navigate to the recovery image (offain) ,on the second row navigate to the recovery zip (dees_troy).Then hit the Flash button. The phone will boot in 3.3.3-1 offain twrp ,and automatically will install the dees_troy version and when everything is installed,the phone will reboot after the flash again in recovery.All the time i have 100% success with this all in one tool. When you are ready with the installation of twrp ,flash magisk and reboot to system.
Here is the thread for the tool:

I do not think I need permanent TWRP (although I know how nice it is to know you can always fall back to twrp - I will have to use a PC instead); my intention is to flash https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/development/lineageos-16-0-xiaomi-mi-a2-lite-t3919060LineageOS with temporary twrp 3.3.3-1 offain version

Your choice , but I always prefer to have permanent twrp with custom ROMs . You know what's best for you.

the commands are
Boot:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Recovery:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
System:
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
but the question is where can I get the

system.img
for the xiaomi Mi A2 Lite (daisy); bearing in mind the phone is on a 2 partition system?
Thanks a lot in advance

There is no recovery image because this is an A/B partitioned phone.
The mdtp issue seems to be a real issue for some people.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/help/device-unable-to-boot-error-mdtp-image-t3926962
The advice I gave there is all I can give here. Try to fastboot/MiFlash a stock ROM.
If you don't have a stock image, they're listed here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/how-to/fastboot-xiaomi-mi-a2-fastboot-images-t3824871
Note that the newest image is 10.0.13.0 (14, 15, 16 did not get full releases, just OTAs).
These threads suggest it's possible to flash a stock ROM to fix a corrupt mdtp partition...

Mdtp flashes returned your device to an state where partitions are readable again otherwise you won´t enter not even to recovery.
You don´t have to try to flash recovery (nor stock or custom), only reboot to a custom recovery like TWRP, the process to do it is well explained there, I also faced an mdtp issue and I didn´t need to flash the whole rom, just booted to TWRP and from there I did what I wanted, but if you yet want to do it.......
First of all I´m not familiar with Debian coming to modding smartphones, just I use it within other distros for other purposes.
The tool that you linked is not useful for us, this tool works mainly to fool recovery to accept modded scripts as original/signed and our device although it has a recovery image doesn´t have a dedicated partition and it simply is not available for the normal user, it´s mean that this tool uses MiRecovery present on all the devices running Miui out of the box but not for the others running Android One.
If you can access to a Windows machine this is the tool that I frequently use: https://xiaomifirmware.com/downloads/miflashpro/ but if you only can access to a PC with Debian probably this tool works for you https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/tool-miflash-linux-t3708847

You can't throw a .tgz or .zip at fastboot?!
If you're going to flash a stock ROM, extract it and run a flash_XXX script. It will use your fastboot to flash every partition. Variants preserve data or relock bootloader.
if fastboot fails (data transfer failure (too many links))
-> use a different USB port which is not a charging port.
-> try a different USB cable

In the Oneplus 3T forum it is reported that flashing the bootloader resets the dm verity. Can we get the bootloader for Oneplus 3 to try the fix?
wrong forum body...
there's a specific forums for questions & requests.
Hi,
I had also this problem on my OP3 (not T version).
Solved with this :
1- on Freedom OS 1.7 (any rom should work), rebooted to TWRP (Official)
2- wiped everything including internal storage. (if already on .28 TWRP wiping data to f2fs and wiping internal storage normally may save you some steps later on)
3- fastbooted the official recovery (v1 downloaded from OP site)
4- rebooted to official recovery and started install from ADB.
5- sideloaded beta 9
6- rebooted to beta 9 ( booted perfectly with no issues)
7- reboot back to official recovery (now it will be v2)
8- wipe cahce (and data if available)
9- reboot to fastboot and fast boot mod TWRP .28
10 - on TWRP the password issue might appear but it';; be fixed after this step
11- on TWRP wipe Data to f2fs (even if it was f2fs) and wipe internal storage (it may show it as 0 size)
12- reboot to system
13- reboot back to TWRP and now it can access internal storage , flash SuperSU (sr5)
finaly reboot to system.

Ted
Stop with this thread there are already specific threads for dm.
I Made an Backup with flashfire (fastboot flashable). And then restored it. After that the warning was away.
i still not get it, what the big problem is with this warning?
Have it since it came out, and cant find any issue with it?! Or do i miss something?

There's technically no problem other than the annoyance of seeing the warning and using an extra 5 secs
I asked this issue on OnePlus online chat. They said that flashing open beta 7 firmware can solve this issue. I've tryed this and dm-verity error has been gone.

Transfer your backup to your computer and extract the zip, then put your phone in fastbooot mode and click flash-all.bat
there have been so many threads on how to remove DM V. just use the search function dude...
There is no need to flash or erase anything.
Just use these two fastboot commands and the dm-verity notification is gone:
fastboot oem disable_dm_verity (this command is not needed)
fastboot oem enable_dm_verity

So those two commands can also be used instead of the dm-verify.zip for those that want to make changes to their system partition (by mounting it in twrp) WITHOUT root?

The ZIP is for the previous use to not trigger dm-verity at all.
The fastboot commands should disable the message if you have already triggered dm-verity.
Ahhh nice, thanks. I thought that is only work with original bootloader and recovery because the OEM in the command. I'll try it at Weekend.

Does this mean if you have this IMG, you can flash after any other (even older) IMGs without verify check?
With fastboot and OST LA from here?
That would be a fantastic news!!! :good:
Overall, the fastboot doesn't seem to work on my device. Once I get my phone into bootloader state it says naturally DOWNLOAD MODE but any fastboot devices command ends up with <Waiting for devices>. I've switched drivers from Nokia's one to diffrent non device specific but nothing helps. Any idea on how to fix it ?
- edit -
Came out that the adb and fastboot drivers can't be outdated so be sure to use newest from SDK Platform Tools - otherwise u won't see the device.

Didn't checked by flashing it. But, logically yes. Though system partition is still encrypted. That may cause an issue. But for custom ROM developers - it can be a start. Provided - your bootloader is unlocked.

Fastboot need Admin permissions on windows open a CMD as Admininstator.
On Linux just login into user root.

I have it problem on Windows 10 too. If you want very strong, download any Linux-based LiveCD, flash it on USB and load. After this install adb and fastboot from LineageOS site (delete space after "https://" https:// wiki.lineageos.org/devices/bacon/build) and run commands.
P.S.: I am sorry for my bad English, but I hope help you
Wow, you are a genius! So glad to see twrp on our Nokia 8 xD but with encrypted /system. Does it mean nandroid backup is not possible at the moment? Also, with your magisk patched kernel, can i flash over or do i need to first flash twrp then reroot with your method?

Flash TWRP img, then re-root using Magisk method provided in the URL.
Created another version of TWRP. Now /data is browsable, but showing garbled file names So, nanodroid is still unachievable. Don't have a backup phone, so could not take the risk of loosing my data, else could have un-encrypt ICE filesystem encryption and could have build a stock based ROM without encrypted partition.

Does this work with a locked bootloader? And if so do I just follow the steps here? Or do I need OST LA?
thank you so much for your time and effort. Much appreciated. Can the stock recovery be backed up and restored Later? Is it advised to flash it on TA 1012 Nokia 8 unlocked? How can we revert to the original state? Does OEM Unlock help in this case? Is it an image of the whole OS like previous mod attempts?

You need an unlocked bootloader. Else fastboot not let you overwrite /boot partition. No OST LA required.

There is no different partition for recovery. So, just flashing the original boot partition ( boot.img ) will be enough to restore. OEM unlocked is required to decrypt the /data partition. This one is just the boot.img modification.

It is the same image for TA 1004 / TA-1012 . Taken from v4.88B update.
I realized that after the download finished. I apologize for jumping the gun. Since I'll have to unlock my bootloader, is there a way to do a full system backup through adb or otherwise? Most likely, I have a locked bootloader and before I can figure out a way to unlock it, I will have to backup as much data as possible since unlocking it will most likely wipe all my data and do a factory reset.
You can not make a backup unfortunately.
could you and other people making useless threads put it in the thread title and OP so that 99.9% of nokia 8 owners that dont have a way of unlocking the bootloader dont waste our time by having the salt rubbed in, thanks
Sorry if this has been posted but is it possible to switch to a custom ROM when running Android 10 (v11.0.4.0)?
If you have adb installed on your pc you only need these 2 for twrp, there might be a newer versions but they work fine for me.

So should I just use MiFlash to boot each image file individually? Then I assume once TWRP is in I can flash as usual?

Never used MIflash so I don't know how that works. I thought it's only to install stock rom, but I might be wrong. Use ADB to install custom ROMs
With the img file you can boot to twrp with ADB command. Then after installing a custom rom use the zip file to flash it .
I am unable to find any adaptable guide anywhere. Tried using XiaomiTools v2 and was unable to flash because my device (even though has a Mi account created) cannot be linked to my device, I have no where to link it on AndroidOne Global version on Android 10. No clue how you guys are doing this. I've flashed phones since Blackberry models here on XDA and this is the only device instructions are halfed.

find dee_stroy twrp img one. use adb (platfom-tool), then turn off your device and make it go to bootloader state (fastboot). on platform-tool open cmd. (just type on folder path cmd) then type fastboot boot (the name twrp).img and you are set to go. if you wanted to install twrp permanently, after u boot twrp via bootloader, copy the twrp zip to your device and install it. the procedure is all; the same for every rom tho. nothing has changed

fastboot boot trwp.img
Use TWRP to install twrp.zip
If you were rooted...
fastboot boot patched.img
Use Magisk manager to install (direct)
install twrp

This has been documented elsewhere...
The short version is
1) fastboot boot twrp.img
2) adb push twrp-installer.zip /sdcard
3) use TWRP to install the zip
If you also want Magisk you have to install that again. Flash from TWRP or follow the usual process.
Hi, since this morning I'm trying to install TWRP as a recovery, only everytime I reboot while holding the right buttons, it loops, and if I'm not holding, it will just boot normally, I tried several versions of the TWRP, and followed every guide, with no results, even flashing vbmeta.img before flashing twrp.img
Is it my phone ? Has anyone have this problem before? Should I stop trying?
Thank you.
I have this same problem..... I Don't know how to fix it... But, yeah.
Hmm, closing avb via flashing vbmeta should do the trick.
Try:
1. Flash vbmeta with following arguments:
Code:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
2. Flash your favourite flavor of recovery
3. Hold volume up while you execute reboot command
4. See if it load to recovery. If it load to recovery, try to reboot to recovery. Your recovery should stick. Flash recovery inside recovery if you unsure.
Or (although I haven't tested it on begonia, I've ran this on whyred)
1. Boot to recovery by executing
Code:
fastboot boot recoveryimage.img
2. Flash your recovery inside the booted recovery.
3. See if your recovery have sticked by rebooting to recovery.
Hope that helps.
Gave up on TWRP. OrangeFox worked for me: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ngefox-recovery-project-r11-0-stable.4004127/
The TWRP mentioned in the PE install docs is working for me:

Thanks for the info!
I had troubles last time I tried the official TWRP one. The PE-UNIFIED one was working without any issues.
Di you know what the UNIFIED means in this case?

I previously thought that encryption meant system too, which doesn't seem to be the case. The encryption problem is with TWRP, so if you have to flash files located in internal storage and it's encrypted, you won't be able to access them with recovery. Once booted into system things are normal.
You can workaround encryption easily though. Either use a SDCARD or a USB drive (OTG). Best of all, use the latest TWRP.
If I'm not mistaken "UNIFIED" means compatibility with both non-CFW ROMS and MIUI official ROM.
It's good practice to check before each PE+ 11 update if there is a TWRP update too.
Compass.
Thanks for pointing out to UNIFIED one.
In my case both OFFICIAL and UNOFFICIAL didn't work.
Only UNIFIED UNOFFICIAL works.

Hello all,
yesterday I've updated to latest OOS LE2123_11.C.44_1440_202201182111 (Android 12). I was previously on root, so I've updated the phone via full 4GB OTA through the system updater.
Everything was fine until I've tried to root by following these steps:
ATTENTION: if you're a Googler and willing to root the OPO 9 Pro, don't use the steps below, because they lead to a soft-bricked phone! (at least, for me)
Download the full OTA via Oxygen Updater
Extract the boot.img (192MB) via Payload Dumper (and I was confused, because the previous Android 11 boot.img was exactly the half in size)
Let the phone update itself
Throw the boot.img inside Magisk and create a patched boot.img
Flash the pathed boot image via fastboot with "fastboot flash boot Magisk_patched_blabla.img"
The phone was refusing to boot, as it was automatically booting in Fastboot mode.
So I've reflashed the patched IMG file, and the phone switched to Qualcomm Crashdump mode
Then, don't ask me how, I've managed to get it back to fastboot mode. Searched XDA for a clean and tested boot.img, understood that the boot contains 2 slots A/B, set the active boot slot to A, flashed the boot.img downloaded before, and the phone turned back to life.
So...what am I doing wrong? Maybe everything?
What are the correct steps to root the phone?
Thank you in advance
you don't have to flash the magisk_patched.img but instead boot it with : "fastboot boot magisk_patched.img"
Then you can install magisk by it's manager and reboot the phone.
Here is everything explained: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-magisk-unlock-root-keep-root-oos-12-0-0-0.4252373/
OS Update with install to inactive slot in magisk works too.

I follow those steps I can get the boot and install alpha apk after it's install completed to reboot, phone gets bricked and stuck in fastboot.
Wait for the new Magisk, it's going to support Android 12.

How come some people is actually running on the rooted OOS C.44 EU? Are they using a particular version of a patched boot.img that's floating underground?

I've clickbaited like a moron on the UPDATE/REBOOT button after OTA, and I've missed the opportunity to do it *before* rebooting the phone... then followed the steps I've posted and knocked out of the door...

Your post doesn't specify which version of magisk you're using, unless I overlooked it. If you're not using alpha already, use alpha. And make sure you also patch the boot.img with alpha and not a different version than you're trying to install. A couple of people have said canary works now (at least for C40), but I can't confirm whether it still works on C44. Stable doesn't work (yet).

I've tried to use this method but when I try to flash using the 'fastboot boot magisk_boot.img' I get the error "failed - command boot not recognized"
ADB shows the 'sending' command but then nothing happens other than error mentioned above. I've tried to use both the patched and unpatched images but same error. No idea how to proceed from here
