Hey all, recently did a system update on my OnePlus 3. When I rebooted it, it launched the TWRP recovery. I have no idea what it's for but it won't let me boot back to android (system).
I tried everything, but I can't.. Any advice?

Did you update an OTA while having twrp as your recovery?
If yes, this is the cause of the soft brick.
You should update only full zips in twrp.
OTA are to be updated only if you have stock recovery.
To get back to your system, download the "full zip" of whichever version catches your fancy, transfer to your mobile and install from twrp.

Hi, version of what exactly? New OTA? Because I did quite a few things.. Back up, factory reset, and yes I also updated an OTA.. You think that's the mistake I did?
You need the file with the FULL system, not the lil 150 MB update zip. We talk about the 1+ GB variant. If you do otherwise you will have that loop you can oonly break by flashing the official recovery as fix. Then it will boot fine after once booting into recovery.

I assume you have TWRP installed.
You would have had a OOS rom installed which had got updated over the air from an older version to newer version.
The update would have gone smoothly if you were on stock recovery.
Having TWRP has broken the update cycle and hence your phone has been soft bricked. So yes, updating OTA with TWRP caused the problem.
To clear this, you need to download the full version zip . OTA zips will be small (350mb, 90mb etc.). Full version zips will be bigger in size (1.1gb, 1.2 gb etc.). Version here refers to the OOS version (the latest is 4.1)
Once you have the full version zip , you can reflash stock recovery and from stock recovery you can flash the full version zip to get stock OOS.
If you want to have a custom rom installed, you can install the custom rom and gapps if required from TWRP itself.

Try to install full OOS 4.1 zip from TWRP as you are getting access to TWRP. For transferring file you can use ADB or just use a pendrive with OTG cable & TWRP will detect it & then you can flash the full zip from Pen drive.
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.

Hello,
i have version 11.0.2.0 Global on the device with twrp, magisk and edXposed.
Now I have seen that there is already a global version 11.0.6.0.
In my case, how can I update to a new version without losing the data and settings?
And one more question in general. Version 11.0.6.0 is not shown to me via OTA. Here it says, latest stable version 11.0.2.0. Is it not rolled out via OTA?
And if there was a newer version available via OTA, could I install the update despite TWRP?

I (without root) flashed the OTA on 11.0.2.0 global PGGMIXM to 11.0.6.0, but, to flash with root... Maybe (I dont know if it will brick) but you can try flash a recovery version of 11.0.6.0

I had exactly the same setup as you - here's what I did: 1 - Downloaded full rom from official Mi website (MIUI Global 11.0.6.0(PGGMIXM) 2 - Moved rom to root storage 3 - Flashed rom with TWRP, and voila! Updated to latest stable rom. Just remember to flash TWRP recovery again through Fastboot, because you will have stock recovery after update. I am using LTWRP- 3.3.1 -0924 and rooted and installed Magisk, without issues

One thing you forgot to mention is what region is your phone (not your Rom). If Chinese you may have to be extra cautious and steps above might not work for you.
Good luck!

Interesting. I'm still on rooted miui 10 4.5.0 PGGEUXM rooted magisk and twrp recovery-红米Note8Pro-3.3.1-9.0.img
I didn't update yet as bricking started to happen and I can't miss my phone as a daily driver.
Normally I would flash the full ROM, flash magisk, wipe cache and reboot.
So flashing full ROM doesn't break root?
Can't we flash recovery by twrp after flashing ROM instead by flashing by fastboot?
Isnt secure flash twrp after the ROM.

Flashing a full rom will break root, and install stock recovery...
It is too risky to flash another recovery with twrp (possible brick)
so where to put official update on sd card?
download recovery rom?

I just brought rmn8p with miui 11.0.6.0 ,so it is ok to use LRTWRP-3.3.1 -0924. I came across a new version -1104, I'll try it after unlock the bootloader. After that flash preloader then trwp.
Use LR.TWRP, it got an option to make the TWRP persist on every OTA.
Also LR.TWRP = less headache on Xiaomi devices.

For chinese, this will brick the phone. See this instead.
Guys I Just see This video and in it shows the update process, with ltwrp, when the recovery capture the process and update even without losing data, its This True?, somebody has tried?
Link.
This will brick every phone. I brick my EU ROM, with this method of update rooted phone.
What is correct solution to update rooted phone?
Redmi Note 8 Pro, 11.0.2 QGGEUXM, TWRP 3.3.1 1210, Magisk 20.3 -> 12.0.1 QGGEUXM
System say there exists update, i choose download, select reboot, but after reboot i end up in TWRP but nothing happened. After exit i boot to old 11.0.2 system with message that update fail.
Edit 1: after 2. download/update/reboot TWRP start installing image ...
Edit 2: after automatic update system say 12.0.1, just loosing root (all apps stay)
Edit 3: installed TWRP again, Magisk (there was little problem because Magisk Manager say "not installed", but after some googlig i fix that. So i update system without reinstalling apps or loosing data.
Clear solution is probably download full rom from official Mi website and flash selected rom with TWRP (flash TWRP recovery again, repeat root process, to get root back). See next post.

This is how I upgraded, try at your own risk.
Download full recovery zip of MIUI 12 and latest magisk
Create twrp Backup just in case
In LR TWRP 10 mount & format system, cache, dalvik, vendor.
Flash full rom (not ota!)
Press home to return to the main screen Choose Advanced-File Manager item >system_root / system / folder at the bottom if there is a recovery_fromboot.p file delete it.
Go back to Advanced and select Close AVB2.0 and confirm with a swipe to the right.
flash Magisk
boot to system
First boot takes a while, relax and grab a drink
Remember to backup and close AVB!
Thank you so much for sharing these steps. I have questions for a couple of steps below:

What is TWRP 10? Do I format first and then mount? I usually wipe system, cache, dalvik and then "install" the full rom (your next step), but i never try "mount" here. What does mount do here? what is wiping vender and mounting vender?

Hi guys I wanna ask you if someone tried to downgrade from android 10 to 9, I really didn't like the gestures and other things in new android.
Right now in don't even have TWRP installed.
It's possible to just download the official rom and flash it with the normal procedure :
I mean :
Local upgrade and upgrade with the file?
I'm really retired about flashing customs roms, that's why I even don't have TWRP installed.
As far as I'm aware your only options are:
1. Use the unbrick tool for the 9.0 software (wipes everything) https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/how-to/op5t-collection-unbrick-tools-t3898890
2.find a rollback firmware on oneplus site (will wipe everything but can do through local upgrade option) https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117903378
3. Flash twrp (rather easy through fastboot) wipe system,data,cache but not vendor then install the desired oos software. (Will retain all the files on ur internal like downloads, images, folders etc and once the software has installed it replaces twrp back with stock recovery)
Twrp
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-oreo-8-0-8-1-t3729673
ROM
https://www.oneplus.com/uk/support/softwareupgrade/details?code=PM1574156155944
Personally the 3rd is the easiest and only choice for keeping files.
But if you don't mind losing everything then the second is the same as how you updated to the beta from what I can gather. if you want everything to be 100% like day one then the unbrick tool will flash everything including firmware, radios and so on but has to be installed on a Windows computer and then plugged in to phone
Have you had any luck downgrading? I am also not liking 10.
If you have twrp back up you can revert back without losing data.
Instal via adb twrp recovery again, copy oos 9.0.11 to root then dirty flash it , flash magisk if you dont want to lose twrp, then restore only data from backup. Remove pin before start anything.
AFAIK, you can't downgrade with stock OOS recovery
I'm now on 9.0.11 from OB3
Backup your data/apps, remove your fingerprint or PIN, flash TWRP, then install 9.0.11
Hi,
I have Mi 11X India handset and have unlocked bootloader and installed Miui Eu 12.5.2.0 ROM a few days back. Today while checking the inbuilt updater app, a new update Miui 12.5.3.0 EU ROM. Can I update using the inbuilt updater?? Or should I download the file and install the update via fastboot method only??
Also Can I install TWRP Alpha released few days back?? I mean I am on Miui 12.5.2.0 EU ROM which I installed via fastboot method. Can I install TWRP now??
If yes, then should I have to use TWRP to update to the new update?? Or can I do via fastboot method??

You have to use TWRP to install the new version. In TWRP, select the EU ROm.zip file from the install menu and complete the installation.
Fastboot method is no longer supported.

Yes thats right
If you are going to install it on the previous EU rom;
1-Copy the EU rom .zip file to internal memory.
2-Install TWRP
3-Open TWRP
4-Select the .zip file in memory from the Install section and complete the installation.
If you want, you can just start TWRP and use it. ADB Command : fastboot boot twrp.img
Please see the attached picture for permanent setup after opening TWRP.
If you want to factory reset it after installation, you can Wipe Data.(After installing Eu rom, do Wipe data.)

Sorry bad english
I have installed the new Miui EU 12.5.3.0 update without installing the TWRP. All I did was download the TWRP file and place it in adb tools folder. Also downloaded the 12.5.3.0 zip file and placed in in device internal memory. Opened command prompt. Entered "fastboot boot twrp.img" and TWRP launched in Device. Then went to Install in TWRP, selected the ROM Zip file from internal memory and installed the ROM. All working fine and I have also TWRP now on my device.
This is asking the experts here. Can some expert who has been playing with TWRP and Custom ROMs provide some feedback.
I have a Mi 11x Indian Variant. It came with Miui Global Stable. I unlocked bootloader and installed the fastboot EU ROM 12.5.2.0 via fastboot method. Three days later EU ROM 12.5.3.0 ROM was released which is not a fastboot ROM but Recovery ROM. Hence it could have been installed only with TWRP Recovery. Instead of installing TWRP I just booted TWRP on my handset with command fastboot boot twrp.img and then selected Install on the screen and selected the downloaded EU ROM 12.5.3.0 from Device internal memory which I copied earlier after downloading it on my laptop. Proceeded with Install and update 12.5.3.0 was installed and the Device booted into system with 12.5.3.0 update applied. Also since this update also included TWRP, TWRP also got installed. I can boot into TWRP recovery from my handset.
Now what I want to understand is, that have I done everything correctly?? Did I had to do anything extra?? Like some wipe data or format data or something?? I simply wanted to update from 12.5.2.0 which was a fastboot ROM to 12.5.3.0 which was a recovery ROM. And I have done exactly the same as explained above. Haven't faced any errors or issues. Just want to understand if everything I did was correct. Or should I have done something extra? I mean I dont want to face any issued or errors in future and loose my data.
Please throw some light.
There is no need to extend the subject that much. You did everything right.
Nobody can guarantee that there will be no software problems in the future.
If you have a problem in the future, you back up your data and wipe data / cache OK.

There was a 1 month gap between 12.5.2 and 12.5.3 so dont expect the next update anytime soon.
