Hi, I'm not very experienced when it comes to this stuff, and seeing the threads here left me confused as to what is the best course of action to install an android 12 rom.
I already have my bootloader unlocked, and I have the twrp 3.4 img as well as the AospExtended 9.0 zip, but some users advise against TWRP. Should I just install this rom by booting into twrp (and how exactly would i do that)? I'm on stock android 10.

Okay, lemme get this clear that I'm not a pro in all this stuff. Infact, I'm a total idiot.
I have tried to flash a lot of ROMs on my Moto G5 (cedric) but only 3 of them have worked, namely:
1) Pixel Expirience 7.1.2
2) Ressurection Remix 7.1.2
3) Viper OS 7.1.2
I don't know whats the problem and whether it is with my phone or the ROMs. Also, even after i used these ROMs, the apps which need root access weren't working and yes i did select the Root Access setting to ADB only(cause thats was the only option other than Off). Plz help me guys.....

First you need to say how you have done the flashing of roms and which rom didn't flash, or what error you got while installing the rom. And second is you need to install magisk manager to gain root access with twrp, by enabling the root access in developer option won't give you root access you need to install it via twrp.

I tried flashing them through TWRP. They all were based on Oreo 8.1. I tried Lineage, Invicta, Viper, RR and pixel expirience. As for the error, i don't really know what error it was but Lineage and RR were stuck on the boot loader and the rest just didnt flash.....

Chance are you are using the wrong twrp
64bit roms require you to use the 64bit twrp
See the first post of the lineageos thread for the 64bit twrp
Or you can test out the 64bit twrp that uses my encryption edits
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/help/help-testing-build-twrp-arm64-t3874472
If you want to root flash the latest version of Magisk and then install the magisk manager app manually if it's not installed

All custom oero roms for this device are 64 bit
You need to flash them with a twrp that has been compiled for 64bit twrp use
My official twrp is for 32bit roms only and will not flash 64bit roms - you will get error 7 or I think error 256 or something like that
Flash the 64bit twrp if you want to flash 64bit custom roms - process is the same as if flashing the official twrp via fastboot but you obviously use the 64bit twrp image instead
As mentioned link to 64bit twrp is on the lineageos 15.1 thread first page or try the version in the link I posted in previous post

You flash twrp via fastboot commands
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Although it is technically possible to flash twrp via twrp if you select image flash & select recovery as the image you are flashing but I'd stick with the fastboot method
I don't own this device anymore so no idea about files that are no longer available

Okay, so i flashed the twrp...but still therom isnt flashing....should i upload the rom so that you can see it?
basically;
if a rom has [64bit] in the title, then it's 64 bit, if it is then you need a 64bit recovery which you can easily find on the forum. you dont even need to know what that means.

Just link to the rom on xda and give the twrp error
The rom either isn't for this device eg you are trying to flash a moto g5 plus or s rom or you are using the wrong twrp or you haven't formatted system data cache before flashing the rom
So here's the biggest hair pulling dilemma:
The problem started after installing xiaomi.eu rom version 10.3.
I was using crDroid v5.4 (Android 9) Rom in peace. Then after trying the above mentioned rom,
my Orangefox recovery R8.3 was not showing. It was showing red lines. Then i installed various recoveries, everything is exactly like that.
Except TWRP Oreo By FenFern.
Now i'm stuck at MIUI 10 (8.1 Oreo) with the above mentioned (only) working recovery.
N.B: Installing Pie roms with oreo twrp results into distorted lines in the OS after installation.
How do i install the latest TWRP (or OrangeFox) recovery and Android Pie roms?

Hey there,
You need to flash the latest stock miui rom using MIflash tool. i'm guessing the phone is encrypted in which case you wont be able to flash any other custom roms in the recovery too. (Unless you have a SD Card).
Alternatively, if you do have a SD card, then flash Batik recovery.I've it on my xiaomi.eu 10.4 rom and i can confirm that it works.
Let me know if it works for you.
cheers.

Hey everyone! I'm sort of new to the whole custom recovery thing and while I know that there is a whole post concerning TWRP and Pixel 2XL, I would love if someone could take the time to explain, and maybe help me get it working on my phone.
BTW the reason I want to get a custom recovery is so I can flash a custom rom as Pixel OS just isn't cutting it for me anymore.
Here's what I know:
I am currently on an unlocked phone that is rooted on android 10. I heard that android 10 totally screwed up TWRP and makes it impossible to install after updating. Is that true? If so, is it possible for me to factory reset my phone to android 9 and then install TWRP after the fact? Or, have I totally screwed myself by updating to android 10? I know that I could just ask these questions on the other thread but it confuses me a lot and it would help if I could just get some clear answers.
TWRP works fine on Android 10. I would update to the latest update of Android(which is the August update for right now). Then copy any files( TWRP.zip and what ever Rom.zip) to your phone. Boot into bootloader and run the fastboot commands to boot into TWRP. Wipe data on your phone within TWRP and then proceed to flash the rim followed by TWRP.
Make sure you add the installer zip to the flashing queue when flashing a ROM or you'll get stock recovery again.
Has anyone else figured out how to get TWRP 3.5.2 on the Pixel 3 XL along with android 10 latest build?
I have successfully done it and I'm going to try the same method for android 11 as well.
If not I am willing to write up an install guide and share the TWRP Recovery for it as well.
i couldn't find any info here other then loads of people saying it does not work yet.
I'd like a guide, I'm trying to do exactly that by running through various guides and keep hitting walls that force me to back to reflashing the stock rom to try again.

sorry, not sure why the quote split to a different reply.
Anyway... what I'm trying to do:
Pixel 3 XL - Stock ROM of Android 10 (latest) Aug 2020
--can fastboot to TWRP
--can seemingly install ElementalX-P3-2.17 kernel (which based on all I've read is required for LZMA & TWRP)
--can install Magisk v23
--Attempting to install TWRP 3.5.2-10-Crosshatch seems to fail with various errors or bootloops wether using "TWRP install zip" or TWRP image.
...about the only thing I haven't tried yet is installing TWRP image to the boot partition, but feel that would cause a brick.

I used kirsekura if I’m spelling it right the 1.55 kernel. It seemed to allow terp in for recovery.
So, i tried to install a custom ROM on my Redmi Note 8 pro (begonia model).
I used a LR-TWRP somewhere from this forum (I can link it later, currently on mobile),
It boots, but if I try to install MIUI 12.5, it just bootloops (not system, recovery), rooting bricks the phone (restored with SP FLASH).
Installing preloaded, lk and lk2 (from megathread) kinda bricks the phone, I can boot to MIUI, but can't to fastboot and recovery. (I also restored it)
Installing Pixel Experience 11 (my target ROM is Pixel Experience 12, but I would need to update MIUI, which breaks TWRP) also bricks the phone.
I am currently on MIUI 10, Android 9.
What can I do?
Sorry for my English.
Your TWRP version is incompatible. Flash the Android 11/12 version of TWRP after you flash the ROM.
MIUI 12.5 A11:https://sourceforge.net/projects/be...rp-3.5.2_11-0-UNOFFICIAL-begonia.img/download
A12:https://sourceforge.net/projects/be...ic/Dynamic-TWRP-Begonia-23-12-21.img/download

Okay, so i installed MIUI 12.5 and Begonia Recovery Project.
Pixel Experience 11 Plus works fine, but i can't install the 12 one.
It shows ERROR 1,
and assert failed: update_dynamic_partitions(package_extract_file("dynamic_partitions_op_list"))
From other threads, I formatted data and install latest MIUI (12.5.7), but it still errors.
Sorry for not replying, it was a night time in my country
Begonia Recovery Project is based on Android 10 version of TWRP.
Flash the latest MIUI using fastboot then flash this version of TWRP:https://sourceforge.net/projects/be...ic/Dynamic-TWRP-Begonia-23-12-21.img/download
Then sideload or direct install the zip and format data.
The guide says don't worry about red line errors.
