twrp with miui9.5 latest update

Hello guys,
I was actually using twrp with miui 9.2 for over a month without any problem but then this new update come and i update my device and it recover the original mi recovery.
Thats normal for me. Then i installed twrp via fastboot, rebooted to twrp and without touching anything i rebooted to system then only mi logo showing.
I again reset my phone. Flash fastboot image of mi 9.2 global and update it through ota and again flash twrp then fectory reset but the reault are same.
I also do above steps and do wipe delvik and cache, dont wipe delvik and cache and dont do factory reset, delete the backup recovery from system but after all this the result remain same.
I also download the china version of fastboot rom which is miui 9.5 and replace the recovery.img with twrp (change the name recovery.img) but still no luck.
Soo what i miss? Is there no way to boot miui 9.5 with custom recovery?

Questions about upgrading 5T from 5.1.1 to 5.1.3

Hey. I have a rooted with TWRP installed OnePlus 5T on OOS v5.1.1
I've been receiving the 5.1.3 upgrade for a while now and have decided to update. Can i dirty flash the package or do i need to wipe system and data? I'm guessing the root will not be retained and i will have to root again but will the TWRP recovery stay intact? Thanks for your answers

I guess you would be able dirty flash.
You have to flash the twrp and magisk root again. If you are going to flash latest Open Beta 11, you have to flash Beta 10 before to retain data.

I have switched from 5.1.3 to beta11 like;
1- download the rom you want to install from oneplus site.
2- also download the stock recovery image from oneplus site.
3- put both files into the phone.
4- flash the stock recovery you downloaded.
5- boot into stock recovery and install the downloaded rom without wiping or formating anything.
6- enjoy your new rom with all your apps and data.
After the above steps you can install custom recovery and magisk again.
I also highly recommend to take a full backup of your phone .

Why was stock recovery flashed? Can the Rom not be installed using TWRP?

Well, i always got an error with twrp. No OS installed or something like that. Tried also a dirty flash with twrp and phone was not able to boot. So i found the way with stock recovery.

Rom can be flashed with Blu Spark treble TWRP V8.78not normal TWRP. And after you flash reboot to recovery then flash magisk 15.3 and no verity V2 or version 3 if your not encrypted either work, I used V2 just fine.
If you try to flash magisk right after rom it will probably give you an error. Reboot only to recovery BEFORE letting the rom boot or you loose recovery, then magisk will flash, 15.3 is the least grievous version after a successful boot upgrading to 16.4 is easy.
16.6 has been giving people grief also.

Can NOT boot into custom recovery after MIUI Pie 10.3.1 Global Stable update

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.

You need to boot twrp before booting muiu. Becasue after first boot miui replaces recovery with stock one.

boot recovery after flashing it and flash magisk, then factory reset device to avoid any crashes.
