I tried that, but it ended up in a s9+ logo bootloop...
EDIT- I can still boot into recovery tho!

More info- Im installing Palladium OS GSI, and there's always DotOS if this does not work
Except the DotOS download link is broken

This is a whole lot of GSIs

Yes you can but there is no guarantee that the gsi/sgsi will boot or if booted will work properly. Only testing will tell.

¿Update TWRP?

Hi... I´m in Android One 8.1 Stock, Magisk 18.1 with TWRP 3.2.3-0 (No SD support)
I installed these TWRP flashing via adb and flash in TWRP the installer (With USB-OTG)
Now, ¿How to upgrade to TWRP 3.3.0-0 (twrp-daisy-3.3.0-0-offain)?
I see twrp-daisy-3.3.0-0-offain.img and twrp-installer-daisy-3.3.0-0-offain.zip
¿What is the process to upgrade the TWRP?
In other devices only flash the img in TWRP to boot, but in this device i don´t know...

I have twrp whit sd fix on mi mi A2 Lite whit Android pie on v10.07.0
To install twrp, flash the zip from twrp.
You onky need to boot twrp from fastboot the first time so you can do that.
Can't just flash an image because twrp lives on the boot partition.
That is not the right section to ask that...

To install no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip or not?

I bought now Mi Max 3 (64gb) with unlocked bootloader and installed 10.3.5 Global Stable ROM (10.3..5.0(PEDMIXM)).
I wish to install official TWRP 3.3.1-0 and to root it with Magisk, but now I am in doubt about no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip, after reading a number of instructions on how to root Mi Max 3.
Do I need to install no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip ? What heppens if I skip installing no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip ? When to install official TWRP 3.3.1-0 - before or after TWRP installing ? (Is official TWRP 3.3.1-0 OK, or you advise other TWRP ?)
Many thanks in advance for any help.
Don't install official TWRP 3.3.1-0! It is buggy, no encryption etc.

You can do this with OrangeFox...in settings....
Android is an operating system that gives all the developers access to new mods and applications to serve the user better. You can find tons of new mods that power the Android phone with features that it did not officially equip with. However, these apps and mods require you to have an unlocked bootloader and on top of a rooted device to get it running smoothly on your smartphone. And one of the important verification or security measures taken by the OEMs is the DM-Verify or Device Mapper Verify to reduce the risk percentage after enabling root.
Another important encryption is the no-verity-opt-encrypt which is there to encrypt the bootloader of the Android devices. Besides, this file is important for flashing Custom firmware or rooting.

I would suggest Ofox 10.0 as opposed to 10.1 as 10.1 sometimes returns error 3 or some **** when flashing some roms

Question System and vendor not showing up in custom recovery.

Hello,
I wanted to get lineage os on my phone but when I got to the step where I have to wipe system, data and a few other things system and vendor don't show up, I don't want to flash it without wiping them because I don't want to brick my phone.
I am almost completely new to this so any help would be very appreciated.

Question Help: Can't flash twrp recovery from PC to my Phone (F3)

I successfully unlocked my bootloader, then I tried flashing the twrp by following munchy's tutorial from YouTube (as someone recommended here). I also used the twrp recovery file he provided in the description, by using the latest platform tools from the official website. It was going pretty good. I even got the TeamWin logo, and also loaded up the twrp interface, and was able to navigate through it. But the problem was my internal storage wasn't showing up. So I booted back to my system normally to see If I can find a solution. Then I think I tried again after restarting to see if it fixes itself, but the same problem was persisting. The next time when I tried again, I used the latest twrp version which I downloaded from the official twrp website.
But since my 3rd attempt, I am not able to see any TeamWin recovery come up on my phone, when I connect I do the "fastboot boot (twrp filename)" command in cmd. When I do the command, nothing shows up. The device remains in the Fastboot mode, or just turns off. When I switch it back on, It turns on normally and boots into the phone without any issues, and I can use it. I've tried switching back to the original twrp version munchy used in the above linked video, but same result.
What did I do wrong here? How do I make my phone get into the twrp recovery when I enter the fastboot boot (twrp filename) command thru my PC? How do I make my Internal Storage available to view int he TWRP recovery so I can install it from my Downloads folder? I am on MIUI 14.0.4 If that helps. My end goal is to install Magisk.
Any tips/guides/suggestions are appreciated.
Installing TWRP and root does not erase your data.
Remove security from the lock screen. (decryption).Normally the latest TWRP decrypts the data.
Install Platform tools ,put the TWRP in the folder and run the commands from the folder.
TWRP SKK, Use A12 if your system is in A12/A13 if system A13.
Rename it to twrp.img
CMD
fastboot boot twrp.img
Powershell
./fastboot boot twrp.img
Once booted, go to Advanced -> Press "Flash current TWRP"
If offered, both slots.

Thank you. I had put backed the screen lock after the first 2 attempts because someone said to to that on a YT video after they faced the same problem. Now I tried again by removing the screen lock and the latest twrp for my device also boots up just fine. Now the problem Is I still can't access my internal storage .
Still having removed the screen security?
Which rom(fullname)?
Which TWRP?
Try to mount storage.

Yes, I removed the screen security, though I can enter TWRP, I can't read the internal storage. MIUI 14.0.4.
I just watched a YT video where the dude does the following:
-TWRP Recovery
- Wipe
- Format Data
- Types 'yes'
then
-TWRP Recovery
- Reboot
- Recovery
- Do not Install
After coming back to recovery after rebooting, he gets a pop up, which at the swipe says "Swipe to allow for modifications" which he swipes, then now after checking the Internal Storage, It's readable now. Is this a possible solution?
Twrp A13, obviously if you don't want to keep the data.
Twrp/wipe format data type yes/reboot TWRP.
If error red lines, reboot TWRP and repeat the operation.
Sideload roms or use OTG.

what's twrp A13? Also, I just unlocked my bootloader a few hours ago, so my phone has already done a factory reset and i don't have anything to lose except the Magisk APK and .img file in my phone.
But I have a question, will doing the format data just do a factory reset, or will I lose my ROM? Because I'm not trying to install a custom ROM, I just want to Install Magisk as the end goal with my current ROM.
MIUI 14 Android 13 so use this TWRP
plugged the phone into the PC when it is on the TWRP, you will have access to the internal storage. (works on my 12 pro aves twrp A13 Skk).
twrp-3.7.0_12-v7.5_A13-alioth-skkk.img
I'm using the latest one I could find on the TWRP website for my device. Not aware If it supports Android 13 though as it isn't mentioned on the website. Just asking my prev question, will doing the format data from TWRP just do a factory reset, or do I lose the ROM and will have to install a custom ROM?
second question I forgot to ask in my prev post, after i do the format data and put the Magisk APK and twrp img file again on my device, will my device stay decrypted as I formatted the data, or will the problem persist?
sorry If i sound dumb

Use this TWRP(officiel).
twrp-3.7.0_12-v7.5_A13-alioth-skkk.img
thank you, this is the one I was looking for. Sorry to bother you again, now I installed the Magisk V26.1 apk from TWRP. And when I boot back to system and try opening the magisk manager, this happens. It says downloading, forever. I think I shouldn't have directly downloaded the latest version. So probably have to downgrade it a bit. For that, what will I have to do?
Can I just hold the Magisk icon, and uninstall it simply like any other app? Or do I have to do it from the TWRP? Also, Is it necessary for me to uninstall it before downgrading, or can I just download the apk of older magisk version and flash it from twrp just like I did previously?
It was on my first post.

I don't doubt it, the Twrp A12 also works for certain operations on an A13 system but for certain Miui roms some bootloop.

Hm ok.
Welp for me on AOSP, it works nicely. I flash a new build (or two) every week. Backup/Restore works as should. UI is nice and modern, imo better than TWRP. That's why I'm recommending it.
Haven't heard anyone saying that they can't view Phone storage on OrangeFox.
Hi,
@NOSS8 , I'd like to ask : I've only some hours to wait to unlock the BL. But one question, as it's yet the stock rom (FW V13.0.11.0, A12), wich twrp should I use ? I want to install a A13 rom (that supposes FW V 14.xxx !)
So :
- fastboot boot twrp (but wich one ?? A12 or 13 ?? ; skkk ? Or ?) (+ "flash current twrp" OR "install it in ramdisk"?)
- reboot recovery
- flash FW V14.xxx
- flash rom
- format data
- reboot system
- flash magisk (last version ? Seems to be 'big' changes ?)
- flash what I need (V4A, DFE (??), ....)
What do you think ?
Thanks a lot ! Main question is about what version of twrp.. Help will be very appreciated !

Instead, use Miflash with a Fastboot rom, you can extract the boot img for root.(don't re lock the bootloader).
You can root without TWRP, but according to this thread, if you root you lose the TWRP and vice versa, I don't know if this is still relevant.(I don't have this device).
If you need ,install the TWRP A13 after flashing the A13.

I'm very greatfull for your quick reply ! Thanks
The device is too a Poco f3, sorry.. This doesn't need to flash magisk for twrp to stick (I had another one I've broken)
But I don't understand what's the advantage to first flash a fastboot rom..? As you say to flash twrp would loose root and vice versa... (I've read the thread you're talking about ofox)
So I wanted to go trough +- the way I mentionned, as A13 as well as ofox 'seems' to work (but I'm carefull with that twrp on stock MIUI A12, and I never used ofox..)
So you do think it's a bad idea ?? The rom I want to flash is crdroid.
I'm more lost now ...
Thanks again !
