How to install xiaomi.eu when coming from an AOSP custom rom - Redmi Note 8 Questions & Answers

How do i install xiaomi.eu when coming from an AOSP custom rom?
I was using Paranoid Android Quartz 4 (AOSP) for a good while now but it i want to go to xiaomi.eu because of the better battery management and other features.
I wanna know what's the right procedure to flash the rom. I am going to include the rom and custom kernel plus magisk on top.
Im confused as to which to wipe and/or format. Like which to do first and such before flashing the rom, kernel and magisk.
I'm using OrangeFox recovery because TWRP doesnt work on mine. Phone is ginkgo.
Thanks for the response

Wipe dalvik, cache, system, vendor, data. Flash rom, magisk. Reboot. If you face bootloop (most probably) then format data partition. You'll be okay.

Should i format data partition before flashing rom or should i do it after i face bootloop?
Thanks for replying

Format after flashing ROM. Formatting before flashing will wipe out internal storage.

Dirty flash

sorry for the noob question what is dirty flash
Flashing a rom without wiping /data first. A "filthy" flash would be to flash without wiping even cache and Dalvik
You can dirty flash between minor version updates of the same rom. Whenever you flash a major update (let's say from bestromever JB 4.3 based to bestromever JB 4.4 based) or if you flash a rom from a different developer you need a clean flash, meaning you need to wipe data, cache and Dalvik in your custom recovery.
If in doubt: clean flash

Custom rom + Custom Kernel = Black screen..

Hi,
When i tried flashing a custom rom and a custom kernel it just gives me black screen after starting up again maybe you guys have got the same problem before and what did you do to solve this issue? I tried these custom rom/custom kernel combinations :
FreedomOS-op3-nevax-1.7-CE-signed / blu_spark_r114-OOS-6.0.1 thulium
FreedomOS-op3-nevax-1.7-CE-signed / ElementalX-OP3-0.23
ResurrectionRemix-M-v5.7.2-20160804-oneplus3 / blu_spark_r114-OOS-6.0.1_thulium_e476ded
ResurrectionRemix-M-v5.7.2-20160804-oneplus3 / ElementalX-OP3-0.23
My TWRP version is 3.2.1 official
These are one of the many methods i tried:
Method 1
1. Wipe Cache, Data, Internal storage, Dalvik/art cache and system.
2. Flash Custom Rom.
3. Wipe cache, Dalvik/art cache.
4. Flash Custom Kernel.
5. Reboot.
Method 2
1. Wipe Cache, Data, Internal storage, Dalvik/art cache and system.
2. Flash Custom Rom.
3. Flash Custom Kernel.
4. Wipe cache, Dalvik/art cache.
Method 3
1. Wipe Cache, Data, Internal storage, Dalvik/art cache and system.
2. Flash Custom Rom.
3. Flash Custom Kernel.
These are some of the combinations i tried and even some of the methods i tried are nonsens but i am just trying to get it to work. If you need any more information just tell me . Help is very much appreciated .
3.5.2 base dont work with custom kernel yet. The twrp Version is a non known at my End. I think you better read this forum. From A to Z. Since all your awnsers can be found easy.

3.5.2 base? Can you please explain it a little bit more detailed thank you and i already read alot and can't find it thats why i made a thread.
Please read the freedom os topic. It address well why you cannot Flash a custom kernel. It is simply that kernel sources for Version 1.7 (aka 3.5.2 base) are not releases.

As suggested earlier try reading some ROM threads, going around flashing ROMs and kernels with no purpose is going to get you a soft brick very quickly.
My suggestion decide what you need out of a ROM, that is missing from stock, read a few rom threads to identify one that fills your needs. Then when you've got a ROM in mind go back and read the thread THOROUGHLY before flashing, had you done this with FreedomOS you wouldn't be here now.

Changing from custom ROM to another custom ROM

Hello
I am using Revenge OS as of now and I would like to change to Havoc OS. Do I need to first flash MIUI and then Havoc OS or can I directly flash Havoc OS?
Also, in general, everytime I flash a new ROM do I need to clear system, data, vendor, cache, dalvik/ART cache? Please help me, I am new to these things.
A proper guidance might lead me not to damage my phone.
Thanks in advance.
Boot into TRWP
1. Download the ROM and GApps and save it to SD-Card
2. Wipe System, Data, Dalvik, Cache.
3. Flash the ROM and GApps.
4. Reboot and Enjoy.

It wouldn't. And you also have to be careful about ARB.

Pie Firmware Rom?

I just unlocked my Mix 2, but doing some looking before rooting. Is there any Roms that will work on Miui Beta Global 9.5.16? If all custom Roms are using 8.0 firmware, i guess i will wait to root this phone. If there is a Rom i can flash being on 9.0 firmware please let me know where to find it. Thank you.
Use the xiaomi.eu Roms, they are original Chinese MIUI Roms, but without any Bloatware Apps

If you browse through the forum you will find that most pie rom's have moved or are moving to pie firmware.

How do I flash this rom? I never had luck with Xiaomi.eu roms but this time Imma do it again if I find someone who has working instructions.
Which recovery do I need? I'm currently on TWRP 3.2.3.0 (the official one from TWRP website)
What I do is
Wipe Data, Cache, System, Internal Storage everything. Even format data. Then copy the rom over into internal storage and flash it. Wipe cache again. Reboot system.
It always is stuck in loading.
Edit: I'm on Havoc OS-Pie currently.

Im on 9.5.23 eu, just wipe data caches system. If you are encrypted format data(im decrypted so i dont format sata) if you format sata reboot recovery and just install the zip. First boot may take longer than usual.

Sorry for late response, i had this Problem too, bootlooping...
NEVER wipe System or Persist! Just FORMAT Data and install the Rom, i did it via ADB Sideload, worked perfectly

TWRP Data encrypted. (Didn't have any lock pattern or code)

I tried installing Corvus OS 14.5
Here's what I did;
1.Downloaded and placed rom .zip into my phone files.
2.successfully Installed TWRP 3.5.0_10-UNIFIED
3.Wiped: Dalvik/ART Cache, System, Vendor, Cache, Data
4.Went to the install section, all folders in random letters and numbers.
Help!
And how do I get out from this situation.
Reflash stock ROM (MIUI 12) and try again with TWRP and Custom ROM.

I already did. Though, I think I should find a method to prevent this.
