Make sure you have turned on adb mode in your phone and you have authorized the computer for accessing adb and fast boot.
Or may be you didn't go to fastboot mode of your phone.
You need to press and hold volume up+power button until your phone reboots. Then only you can access fastboot.
I have unlocked the bootloader,then I activated debug mode. i press and hold volume up+power button and i entered in fastboot mode.
. i installed adb driver and program. I opened cmd and I wrote :
cd..
cd adb
adb devices
fastboot flash recovery (name recovery).img
when the writing appears "waiting for devices" does not continue with installation
resolved... my usb don't work good. i used other pc

For that you now need to use zenfone flash tool coz you didnt make a back up of your recovery.
For that you needed to first use this cmd.
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
This would run twrp temporarily and you could make a backup of your stock recovery. Then to permanently install stock recovery you needed to do the same you did.
Now, except using zenfone flash tool you can only ask a friend if he can give u the stock recovery if he has unlocked bootloader and didnt install twrp..

If you want to flash the stock rom I suggest you do it with adb sideload because I noticed that if you flash with stock recovery with "upgrade from sd card" ,when the phone is rebooted it is very slow.
This is the link with stock recovery:

Update to latest miui 10 then
First you must unlock the bootloader if you haven't yet. Try to Google it
Second you flash twrp, the latest one. There's a version here and another on the official twrp website. You can find both very easily. To flash twrp, start you phone in download mode, connect it to PC and from CMD send the command "fastboot flash recovery yourtwrpfile.img"
From twrp you must do a full format of the storage to make sure you're decrypted.
After that you can flash any P ROM by following the steps provided on the ROMs thread.

You don't have to flash another ROM after twrp and you can still use miui, but make sure that you flash magisk so you don't lose twrp as Miui overwrites stock recovery.

Yes it is safe.. fastboot method is always a safest method to flash MIUI ROM

No. Phone will go back to original RECOVERY after 2nd restart.
Does that TWRP is functional with REDMI NOTE 8 PRO ?
Some functions may work, some not.
Installing root with this TWRP will cause bootloop.
When something go wrong....
If you end up with BOOTLOOP, for any reason ( Magisk etc. )
Just flash boot.img from FASTBOOT + RECOVERY+BOOT and bring your phone back to life.
This boot.img was extracted from firmware linked above.

The ROM is based on the Chinese beta version 9.10.17 Miui 11 and the Magisk is integrated into the ROM. Just flashed the archive with ROM from TWRP. I do not have a direct link to ROM - I downloaded it from the OTA server. You need to ask on the developers site.

Dude, flash miui fastboot ROM like this (search on YT):
HOW TO FLASH MIUI via FASTBOOT - REDMI NOTE 8 PRO
tha channel name is Konah the Begonia Guardian
*chose your version like pggcnxm
buddy how do you know that you have Chinese version with global rom.
i have this device but not sure if it is global or not
I'm using cn and moved to global.
Here is what I have done:
- Unlock
- Flash fastboot global rom (Only A9 available)
- Update to latest
- Flash orangefox
- Use TWRP's guide to flash vbmeta to disable and avoid tripping AVB (see TWRP thread)
- Boot to system once
- Reboot to recovery
- ...
- Profit
The trickiest part is when flashing recovery. If you don't enter the recovery after entering "fastboot reboot" command, your recovery would likely be replaced. Hold vol+ when entering command.
Be carefull when updating. If you have not flashed a MIUI full rom on orangefox, you cannot do incremental update, so go with full rom once. Also I have bootloop once, and fortunately escaped. Here is my solution (need someone to test, since this is my daily driver)
- Vanillafy everything (uninstall magisk, restore stock boot.img, restore stock recovery)
- Update
- Customize everything
OR
- After flashing update, dont reboot to system. It will likely to trip AVB. Flash vbmeta once and try to reboot.
If you have tried second update method and succeeded, please do tell.
Hope this help.

From the packaging, if you have a red box, it's chinese. If white, it's global.
From rom version. If it says someting like "QGGMIXM", it's global. If it says "QCGMIXM" or something like that, it's chinese.

pretty simple bro, just return to miui 11 first because I fear you can brick, after that, just flash any twrp for a10 or a9 (depending of your android version) then wipe dalvik, cache, data.
**miui is problematic flashing in different versions, in my video I recommended donwgrade first

I have the same situation.
Mine was worst. I didn't know my phone was chinese with global rom, 'cause the chinese sold me 'global version', and sent it in white box, but it's the chinese version with global rom.
Well, I tried following a few tutorials, but all after fastboot twrp, close AVB, install ROOT and reboot, started bootlooping and I had to flash global rom again with mi flash. Can't get root access / magisk.
Did you solve that? Please, guide us.

From the packaging, if you have a red box, it's chinese. If white, it's global.
From rom version. If it says someting like "QGGMIXM", it's global. If it says "QCGMIXM" or something like that, it's chinese.

If I'm on Global ROM on CN(red box) version phone and decide not to install root or custom recovery and keep everything vanilla with unlocked bootloader, can I do incremental updates?

You can, working flawlessly. But once go global, never lock your bootloader.
You can use below TWRP Thanks LR Team. (I tired Miui 12 with CH Device)
install TWRP in fastboot
Reboot TWRP after Advanced >File Manager > delete "system_root/system/recovery_fromboot.p"
Again Advanced > install root
Finish.

if bootloop restart TWRP>Advanced>Remove AVB 2.0
Advanced >File Manager > delete "system_root/system/recovery_fromboot.p"
Again "Advanced > install root"
