Hello everyone,
I have a huge problem with my OP3. I flashed TWRP following this guide from the unlock of the bootloader to the flash, but when I rebooted from TWRP after flashing it, the phone was in a bootloop.
I also had this problem on my OPO everytime I flashed TWRP, but I solved it by doing a factory reset from TWRP just after flashing it, it always worked, but apparently it doesn't work on the OP3, so I don't know what to do... :crying:
EDIT : I repaired my OP3 by flashing the stock recovery and reinstalling Oxygen OS in sideload, but now I'm afraid to flash TWRP again... I don't understand what I do wrong, I just enter the command to flash recovery, then when I reboot the phone bootloop...
Hey everyone. Tried to flash a custom ROM for the first (and maybe last time) on the Mi5s from China Stable V10.2 to Lineage OS16. I think i did everything correctly at first
Unlocked the bootloader with Mi Unlock, put the SDK tools into ADB folder, flashed TWRP with command prompt, made a backup, wiped data, disabled force encryption, MAGISK root, flashed Mi5s firmware (although I could only find Oreo), LOS16 (Pie), and OpenGApps
I did all of that and got stuck on the LOS boot animation. Then I wiped data + cache partitions and tried again (didn't work). I quit trying with LOS but instead tried to flash the MIUI Global Stable recovery ROM with TWRP, also only made it to the boot animation. I then did a factory wipe on TWRP and tried to restore my backup but now it would only boot to the fastboot (not even trying to load the ROM)....... I can still access TWRP so maybe I'm not so screwed but what do I do? I just want a functioning device and don't mind if I go back to China Stable although advice on trying to flash a custom ROM would be appreciated. Thanks!
My bootloader is unlocked.
After installing PIE update to MIUI Global 10.3.1.0 Stable, when I try to boot OrangeFox recovery ver. R9.0-2 for Whyred using fastboot command "fastboot boot recovery.img" in CMD ( the result is shown below), the phone does NOT boot in OrangeFox recovery. It just remain stuck on MI logo after booting ...
C:\platform-tools>fastboot boot recovery.img
Downloading 'boot.img' OKAY [ 0.951s]
booting OKAY [ 0.157s]
Finished. Total time: 1.158s
Kindly advise on how to resolve the issue
Did you temporarily deactivate the Anti-Rollback-Feature with
>fastboot flash antirbpass dummy.img
where you will find the dummy.img in the official download of the Xiaomi firmware before trying to boot into recovery?
This needs to be done in the same fastboot-session that you want to boot into recovery.

Many thanks for the advice. Worked like a charm. :good:
No, I did NOT deactivate the Anti-Rollback-Feature which was causing the problem.
In the past, whenever I installed custom recovery on my device including the first time, I did NOT have to flash dummy.img as my device booted into custom recovery without flashing dummy.img.
P.S.: I used dummy.img from this thread:

ONLY IF you have Unlocked-Bootloader, then you can use this MIUI Flashing Guide- Method 2: Fastboot Update to unbrick your device.
Please carefully chose the firmware version (Global / India) to download the fastboot stock ROM for your device.

Great that it solved your problem!
As addendum: The Anti-Rollback (afaik) has to be disabled every single time the recovery is changed/updated. This caught me off guard as I wanted to update TWRP from within the offical TWRP app. This failed and made my recovery unusable (Although I could still normally boot into system).
So let this be a cautionary tale to people.
I can't boot to my custom recovery in my redmi note 5. it is booting to the original recovery. I tried TWRP and REDWOLF recoveries . It will boot in the first time, then I reboot my phone after that when I reboot, it is booting to the original recovery. Same happened when I tried RED WOLf recovery. Pls help me.

After flash twrp, just flash magisk zip through twrp recovery...
Hello,
i'm stuck in a particular situation: i can use fastboot and i can flash recoveries but none of them can succesfully flash a rom. i want to go back to the stock Realme UI, my device is RMX1993.
i tried to follow the guide (https://forum.xda-developers.com/realme-x2/how-to/to-stock-rom-howto-t4014773) but the last recovery (rmx1993-sde20-stock_recovery-c05) can't flash neither RMX1993EX_11_OTA_1040_all_tSZ3Sf5A77NS nor RMX1993EX_11_OTA_1050_all_loALrMDyMrbs.
tried to flash trough orangefox or the last twrp that support ozip decription but the result is a "succesful flash" but a phone that does not go over the boot screen and it reboot.
i succesfully installed color os trough the proper old stock recovery and it said the installation was succesfull, but the problem was the same.
someone know where could be the problem?
You need to successfully flash Android 10 (Realme UI 1.0) before you can flash custom Android 10 roms.
Have you tried this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/realme-x2/help/how-to-flash-q-firmware-based-roms-t4115987
As for why your colorOS back up is not working i'm not quite sure...have you wiped your cache before booting to the color os backup?
So i followed the steps on unlocking my bootloader and i successfully unlocked it after a week. At first try i soft bricked my phone trying to install twrp begonia. img from the official website, then i fix it by flashing the older version of miui (miui10) by the help of xiaoMiFlash. After flashing miui 10 to fix the bootloop my phone works pretty well but i want to flash custom rom on it so i tried to install twrp 3.3.1 and it is running well from miui rom but after flashing corvus os to my phone i tried to enter recovery mode specifically twrp, it seems that after several seconds twrp crashes then my phone automatically restarting to corvus os. The main problem is twrp is not working well and it keeps crashing whenever i entered recovery mode (TWRP)
How to fix it??? PLEASE HELP
