I downloaded a rom from https://c.mi.com/oc/miuidownload/detail?device=1900394
The global version.
Now I'd like to know how I can flash this rom safely on my device. I don't know if I'm gonna flash this through recovery or fastboot.
Anyone know what this rom is?

There is a flashing guide button right by the download button. It says that you can locally update, or flash via mi flash tool (fastboot).
Judging from the ZIP-format, in Recovery-Mode? AFAIK Fastboot Images are Tarballs (.tar.gz) and Recovery Images are ZIP.
Don't quote me on that tho. I might be wrong

so i got into this problem i sucessfully unlocked the bootloader using htc offficial method flashed the twrp recovery wiped everything as coming from stock rom
downloaded the slimbeam rom and the g apps and flashed it but the problem is after the htc boot screen i am getting this kind of message in red lines and then it get stuck at that i tried several other roms also still the same problem any solutions where i got wrong??
On your PC, take the rom you're flashing and unzip it with 7zip, get the boot.img file over to where your fastboot is, then in fastboot USB mode, issue this command -
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Be sure that you're only using a rom for your phone.

You're unlocked with HTCdev.com but encrypted signature security is still there - aka s-on.
You'll need to do this with every rom flash, unless it includes an s-on kernel installer.
And if one does, those don't work 100% of the time, not the dev's fault.
This is pretty much the standard procedure for all s-on HTCs.
You can skip it if your flashing a similar rom and you're sure it has the exact same kernel as the previous one.
But you'll probably spend more time figuring that out each time than just doing the procedure.
I think most people do the rom first, then the boot.img - I think that you want to go with that.
Thanks man really appreciated the reply
Btw can you suggest stable cm rom kernel combo and
also do I have to flash the boot. Img from the rom I downloaded?
I would be great if you provide stable cm rom :thumbup::thumbup:
Send from my nexus 7 still on jb
Sorry, I own other HTC models and you have to go with one for your phone.
And yeah, you want to flash the boot.img from each rom you download and try.
The boot.img contains the kernel - that ties the hardware to the rest of the rom.
They have to match up.
So we I am also trying to flash ligux rom so we need to flash the rom and gapps in the recovery and then flash the hell boy kernel through flash boot via cmd right?

If that kernel and rom combo are compatible, yes, that's it exactly for an s-on HTC.

Thank you! I'm on the app and didn't have time to find it.
Go there, do that.
Im on Z008 2.19.40.12_20150612 I cant seem to flash twrp no matter how hard I try. Im rooted and unlocked BL. Is fastboot easiest way or sideload or from twrp manager? Does someone have the download link of which IMG I would need?
Check the General resources thread, you might have to upgrade your stock firmware version.
Download twrp manager from app store. Use that.

I've tried that but what img file do I need for my firmware?
I see the new one is 2.20.40.63 what would be the right twrp img file to flash?

You must be on 2.19.40.18 - 2.19.40.22 to unlock your bootloader. Only after unlocking your bootloader can you flash TWRP onto your phone permanently...
Go to general section and check out the 1st stickied post, it will give you the info you need to do this...

TWRP officially support Zenfone 2 (551ML) so get from there....
I'm 550 ml now what? Can anyone just send me a link to the right img?
What are the steps to flash this TWRP recovery 2.8.7.0 OTG-USB NTFS.zip. This is for 550 ml
I'd use untethered Twrp then flash, but that's me.
Twrp manager automatically picks the right recovery.

I should be able to flash a rom through CWM that way right? I'm already unlocked bootloader and rooted and su is on my sd card. Can I flash a rom gaps and su again through CWM and I'm good? But I'll be stuck with that rom till I do perm recovery right? CM 12 not for 550 yet?

I've installed the deodexed Dev Rom 2.51.617.32 and I have received the OTA to Oreo, or how can I install Oreo in a developer.
Also I can't run the RUU or I'm making a mistake.

It won't install with TWRP.
You'll also need an untouched fully stock /system partition. Before rooting, and as soon as you install TWRP, you should make a backup of /system if you plan on updating through OTA
Here is the stock recovery for 2.51.617.32
It won't help if you don't have a stock system backup though (that you'll need to restore with TWRP before flashing the stock recovery), but you might be able to find one with a search.
If you are trying to run the Oreo RUU, you'll need to flash the firmware for it first. It's a known issue. The easiest way would probably be to run the 2.51.617.32 RUU, then you should be able to update from there via OTA
I am also on the deodexed Dev Rom 2.51.617.32. I want to go to LeeDroid, but I am not sure how. It looks like I need to be on Oreo. Is there a way to install Oreo manually, while keeping TWRP? Can I just flash the Oreo firmware through fastboot? I'm s-off and unlocked

No tutorial needed. You just need the stock boot.img. Put it into your adb/fastboot folder, then: fastboot flash boot boot.img
Do you need the stock boot.img? If so, tell me here what it says next to "OS" in download mode, and I'll hook you up with it.
Hey can i get the stock boot.img please!

Okay. What does it say next to "OS" in download mode on your phone? Let me know that and I can probably provide you with it.
Hi all! I recently got a XIAOMI MI A2 LITE and I messed it up. Now it goes only on fastboot and when i try to flash recovery it says PARTITION TABLE DOES NOT EXIST. I am guessing my only chance to get the phone back is by flashing the whole system through Fastboot. Can you guys help me ? I did not do any system back stupidly. can anyone send me the gpt bin file to flash the partition? Or other solutions....

Hello guys how u doing...
My question is what is the difference between Fastboot And Recovery ROM in terms of what files they have.
I know Recovery ROM can be flashed by recovey and fastboot is used when phone's recovery in not accessible.
If i am on android 9 (MIUI 11.0.3.0) and i want to downgrade to oreo (9.5.19) can i flash this 9.5.19 recovery ROM directly via custom recovery or Use mi flash tool.Please tell me the reason why u choose either method

For upgrade/reflash/downgrade MIUI always use fastboot ROM and chose clean install. Custom recovery is better for rooted devices OTA MIUI update and for custom ROM's. And if you gonna play with ROM's be smart and unlock bootloader for easy fix if something goes wrong aka (un)bricking device.
Good luck

I'd be interested in this question too. Is there any difference in what those versions contain?
Fastboot ROMs are much bigger usually, like double the size. Is this only due to the recovery versions beeing compressed (better), or do the fastboot versions contain additional data?
