Question Latest Twrp pros and cons - Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40

Today the unlock time for bootloader to unlock will complete and I Intend to install TWRP. I have found the latest officially supported twrp-3.6.1_11-0-alioth.img at https://eu.dl.twrp.me/alioth/. How does it compare to TWRP-3.5.1 https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/recovery-unofficial-twrp-3-5-1-20210702.4300189/.
Can anyone guide me what are the pros and cons of using twrp-3.6.1_11-0-alioth.img and its limitations as compared to TWRP-3.5.1 as I can not find any documentation on twrp-3.6.1_11-0-alioth.img. Any help will be appreciated.
Also does the following limitations of TWRP-3.5.1 also apply to twrp-3.6.1_11-0-alioth.img ?
KNOWN LIMITATIONS:
The following are some known limitations due to either the design nature of Virtual A/B or a problem with ROM themselves. Please read carefully :-
You cannot format data after flashing a ROM zip (Limitation of Virtual A/B). If you want to format, then reboot recovery after flashing ROM. Additionally, if you are encrypted, the newly flashed ROM must be able to decrypt your device. If not, then you have to format data before flashing the ROM It appears, you can actually format data after reboot even if the new ROM cannot decrypt.
You can flash only one ROM in one boot. If you wanna flash another ROM, you must boot to system once. This is again a limitation of Virtual A/B.
Once you have rebooted after flashing a ROM, you cannot write to the data partition until you boot successfully to the new ROM. Android seals the data partition after a ROM flash to prevent any accidental brick since the newly flashed ROM is actually stored in /data. Only data format is allowed in this case. Once you successfully boot to the new ROM, your storage becomes ready for writing again.
Ideally, after flashing a new ROM, you should only need to wipe your data rather than format. But, due to a problem in the device trees current ROMs are using, you will have to format data if you are currently on miui and want to switch to a custom ROM. Specifically, the roms need this commit and to set vendor security patch level to fix this issue. Switching between custom ROMs should not need format, except for hentai OS.
If you are currently on hentai OS, then before using TWRP, you must flash vendor_boot from the link provided in every hentai OS release. Otherwise, you will get black screen. This is only needed when you boot to TWRP for the first time. Do not repeat this step again. Also, do not try this with beta version of the ROM. Use it only with stable.
If you reboot to older slot after flashing new ROM, the new ROM will be cancelled and you will have to reflash again. This is because of how Virtual A/B works.
If you must flash magisk via recovery (it's not recommended now), please uncheck "Inject TWRP after install" else TWRP will remove magisk.
Do not flash magisk after flashing a ROM before reboot. Magisk's zip detects slot in a different way that will cause issues.
Backuptool (used to persist magisk and gapps across ROM updates) will also not work in recovery due to A/B. You will have to flash gapps (or any other zips) everytime after flashing a ROM.

I know where the lastest TWRP for Poco F3 is and how to install it as I have already installed it. That was not the question. The question was that "does limitations of TWRP-3.5.1 also apply to twrp-3.6.1_11-0'? Limitattions like being forced to reboot TWRP after flashing a every single zip file and other limitations like it as mentioned above. Thanks for your reply anyways.

so for me, TWRP does not start again, after installing a file.
I install TWRP, boot into TWRP again and install Magisk. after that I boot into the ROM.
TWRP does not restart itself

So, still no decryption on A12?
I wanted to test new custom roms but i dont want to have to reinstall everything from scratch if i go back to my current rom (.EU).
Can twrp make a full backup and restore it despite not having decryption?
If it cant, can I make a full back up of my phone from cmd in fastboot mode? (so i can just flash it from fastboot to restore everything as it is now)

Want to shift from CN to Global rom

hi i am using note 5 ai 6/64 gb with stable chinese rom miui 10.2.1..now i want to shift to global rom..after unlocking bootloader what are the steps i should follow?
download the global rom version of 10.2.1 from
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5-pro/how-to/received-9-5-17-ota-update-t3813192
if you boot is unlocked (finally) (after many days of waiting period)
put the 1.6gb rom in sdcard or otg
then using any good recovery ( i am using orange fox 8.3-2) https://sourceforge.net/projects/orangefox/files/whyred/
extract it and there will be recovery.img file
connact Rn5p in fastboot mode and boot recovery from minimal adb and fastboot window
fasboot boot (& drag drop recovery.img in the terminal window from extracted folder) and press enter ,
device will show MI logo, if your 1.6gb rom is in OTG drive then NOW is the time to connect you OTG before ORANGEFOX logo appear, otherwise it won't read properly.
for clean flash wipe /data /system /cache /internalstorage /delvik etc
then come back to install and from sdcard' or OTG flash the 1.6gb globalrom of 10.2.x once done
reboot atleast till MIUI setup screen
if you wana ROOT
boot back into recovery ( same steps) and
1. take BACKUP OF YOUR BOOT SECTOR, it may backup in your sdcard or OTG drive
and now flash the following
1. lazyflasher.zip (search for Redmi5 / note5A / Note5Pro on XDA) (its a small zip file)
2. flash magisk 17.1 (i dont recomend 18.0 since they have changed the script, and later no rcovery can extract RAMDISK folder from boot sector unless you RE-FLASH the whole rom.
first couple of boots may goto reboot but it should come to miui setup again.
if anything goes wrong,
reboot in to recovery again! and restore the BOOT sector, it will UNDO the lazyflash and Magisk
now, magisk 17x does say that it tries to disable DMvarity so try flashing ONLY MAGISK. for root.

fail installing Magisk

I'm trying to install magisk on MiA2Lite with january update but I fail.
I've tried
- Zip installation (Magisk Manager -> download .zip) but when I reboot on TWRP i don't find zip, all folders seems empty
- upgrade boot image: the upgrade semmes works well but when I restart MiA2Lite and I open Magisk Manager I alway see "Magisk is not installed" ed if I tap on INSTALL Magisk Manager propose: "download zip or upgrade boot img"..
the option "direct install (recommended)" dosn't apear to me

If you want to install magisk from TWRP:
-Put the magisk.zip on your fastboot folder,
-Boot to TWRP and connect the phone to your PC, then use this code :
Code:
adb push ./magisk.zip /sdcard
-Now, you will be able to see magisk.zip on the Install section of your TWRP. Make sure to rename the magisk installation zip to "magisk.zip"
If you want to install without TWRP:
-Get patched_boot.img for 10.0.3.0 here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi...hed-boot-img-v10-30-0-january-update-t3891331
-Put the img in your fastboot folder, shutdown your phone.
-Go into fastboot mode on your phone (hold Vol- and Power)
-Connect phone to PC and write this on ADB:
Code:
fastboot boot patched_boot.img
-Let it download the img to the phone then unplug and wait for it to boot.
-Install Magisk Manager and tap Install->Direct Install

I assure you that if I would have preferred to find the information myself rather than wait for some kind user to answer me. Unfortunately it is not so simple, there are many double posts with information missing (you imagine a new user who wants to try to install the GCam, there are several posts on the subject with redundant or sometimes opposite information, there are two posts on how to install Magisk without losing the OTA, they are almost identical but in one there is written that with Pie no longer works, in the other no ..). Look for an info here with the search function is anything but simple so thank you for answering me so exhaustively!

Bro.. i'd like to ask
So the diffrence/concept is , if
- with twrp we dont need patched boot.img
- without twrp (we need patched boot img)
Are we can flash stock rom via twrp? So dont need fastboot anymore? At least fastboot for emergency case only
And last why right now is so much step in order doing mod, last time i doing mod with my samsung galaxy grand 2, the key is only how to install custom recovery (cwm or twrp) , from that recovery if we want to install custom rom or root , just download zip , flash from custom recovery, enjoy.... Simple
Why in this phone not like that, especially install GSI rom ( which still im not clearly about GSI and difference with custom rom)

You can't flash stock ROM with TWRP, unless you use a backup of your own stock ROM, then you can recover your backup to install stock. Also you're talking about 6 yr old phone. Many things have changed since then on Android lol. GSI means Generic System Image which means that these roms should be able too boot on every device with treble support. Instead of creating a rom from scratch for every device, they just make a GSI and that can be installed on every GSI supported (project treble enabled) phone. You can still install TWRP and flash what you want. But beware you might have issues and Mi A2 Lite doesn't have any custom ROMs yet, because it is project treble enabled. You can use GSIs for now but most of them lag so I stick with stock. You can try modding the stock rom with magisk etc. :good:

Requirements
Unlocked bootloader
working ADB/fastboot on a PC
the TWRP image downloaded
Pie firmware on the active slot
Installation guide (pre metadata encryption):
Copy the twrp image to your phones storage and/or micro sdcard
Start cmd/powershell/terminal with working adb/fastboot
Reboot to bootloader
adb reboot bootloader OR
turn off the phone (or reboot), as soon as it turns on, hold volume down while USB cable is connected
If youre unofficially bootloader unlocked, and you nuked laf, its volume up and USB for you
fastboot boot TWRP-judypn-boot.img
Confirm allow system modifications if asked
Press cancel if asked for a password (aka when youre encrypted, could also be that it doesnt show you /data at all and no password screen)
Go to Advanced -> Install Recovery Ramdisk
Select the TWRP image which you copied to your phone/sdcard earlier
TWRP will now be installed to both slots (boot_a and boot_b)
Go to Reboot -> Recovery to make sure TWRP is successfully installed
Features:
Install recovery ramdisk:
Selecting this, and then an image (e.g. of TWRP) allows you to install the ramdisk (where TWRP resides for example) into both currently installed kernels/boot images
Inject TWRP after install:
Automatically injects current installed TWRP into the boot image of the ROM/zip youre installing when ticked
Broken:
LGs encryption on Stock
encryption on other ROMs(?)
How to flash ROMs (PRE metadata encryption):
Reboot to TWRP
Make a backup
Install -> select the ROM zip -> tick Inject TWRP -> Swipe for install
wait... ROM will be installed into the NON ACTIVE slot (if youre on a, it will be installed to b, and vice versa)
Reboot system
for gapps, magisk or other mods:
DO NOT REBOOT TO SYSTEM from last step
Go back -> Reboot -> select the non active slot (to where the rom got installed to) -> select recovery
Install gapps, magisk, and whatever else you want
Reboot system
How to initially flash ROMs (metadata encryption):
Reboot to existing TWRP
Make a backup of everything you want to keep
Copy backup to PC (or another external medium)
Flash the ROM
Do NOT inject TWRP (this will break recovery otherwise)
Go to reboot -> Select opposite slot
Reboot to recovery
Perform factory reset (this is to setup encryption)
Apply update (from ADB) with adb sideload for gapps/magisk
reboot to bootloader
fastboot boot judypn_TWRP_bootable-metadata.img
Use as usual
Reboot system
How to update ROMs (metadata encryption):
Reboot to bootloader
fastboot boot judypn_TWRP_bootable-metadata.img
Install -> Select ROM zip
do NOT inject TWRP
Reboot -> select opposite slot (it will tell you even which it installed the ROM to)
Reboot bootloader
fastboot boot judypn_TWRP_bootable-metadata.img
Install gapps/magisk
Or
reboot recovery
apply update -> from adb (in e.g. Lineage recovery)
On PC: adb sideload <new version zip>
(Advanced -> ) Reboot recovery
adb sideload gapps/magisk
reboot system
Warnings:
Updating a ROM means reflashing the mods you flashed too (e.g. Gapps), addon.d doesnt work properly
Be aware of the slot you are currently on
If youre flashing a ROM to a slot, make sure you also have the required firmware (abl, modem, and so on) in that slot
Infos:
System image/Vendor image and system/vendor are redundant, the image variants are direct copies of the partition (and also their size) while the others are "simply" files copied and repacked

Hmm interesting I see ?
Wow. The V40 got TWRP too. Awesome.
Wooo new twrp! Great work Markus!
How hard would it be to get this working on the V35? I can get it to install and boot into recovery, but it does not register touch input.
Well, having a big issue. I installed TWRP, Install custom rom w/ twrp inject, reboot menu, selected the slot where the rom, restarted, no TWRP, No root, but custom rom and now it comes up as unknown in LG UP so I can try to fix it. I think its mostly a brick since I can't do anything. No Fastboot either because im in slot b and cant switch because no root or fastboot.

did you have pie firmware also in the slot where you installed LOS to?
otherwise.... nothing is ever really a brick, you still have 9008 mode as last option
Fixed. Case of the bad drivers. LGUP didn't wanna read so I went to a different computer. Read it through LGUP, flashed Stock, rebooted to recovery, TWRP popped up.
How do the two slots work? I thought that these were for current ROM in one and then new ROM in the other, alternating with each ROM update. Why is one for the ROM and the other holding system partition additions? I would expect gapps to integrate into both A and B sides at once on top of each ROM...
Is there documentation on this?
So I'm bootloader unlocked, rooted on pie and cannot access fastboot. How do I go about installing twrp?
EDIT: tried different USB-C cables and one worked like a charm.

Nothing, phone just reboots like nothing is there. neither the button combo nor the "adb reboot bootloader" command works.
So I got on of the US models unlocked bootloader Verizon I got fastboot can I flash this one to my 405ua verizon?
In fastboot i see Judypn But I believe they flashed a open Korean on mine Im trying to get back to US firmware twrp and magisk if at all possible
Well I can confirms this works for pie on a 405ua unlocked bootloader...Nice work mate...
After reading through a bit and playing around. I got recovery installed on ramdisk recovery. Got out of my bootloop by fastboot flashing stock boot img from my current firmware. I did notice slot b I still have stock recovery which helped getting out of the failed encryption loop. And I also have download mode there.

What drivers did you use? I can't get my LGUP to recognize the device. I'm trying to flash stock back to a working copy of Lineage 16 with twrp.
Broken:
LGs encryption on Stock

exFat for external SDs
Does this mean just within recovery or within Pie?.... The exFat part, that is

!!! The spoiler below is a must-read before doing anything with your device. !!!​
Spoiler: Let's discuss several points at once
Spoiler: 1. Drivers and utilities - download immediately and install so that there are no further questions
1. Fastboot and adb - Tools_r31.0.3
2. Miflash or Mi Flash Tool
3. USBDrivers - QDloader
Spoiler: 2. Features and disadvantages of our device
2.1 We have a so-called A/B partition structure - this is when two spaces are used for system partitions (read more in google) the essence is that there are "Firmware" partitions

and there are partitions directly ROM /data, /system /system_ext, /vendor, /product, /odm, /vendor_boot, /boot
2.2 miui based ROMs update all of these sections. In the case of firmware, they are put in both slots at once. Although this is not necessary in essence.
ROMs of a custom type, those based on a "pure" android are often flashed for only partitions of the ROM, but not in 100% case
2.3 For our device, there are 3 types of ROM installation files, 2 of which are divided into two types of installation methods
2.3.1 Let's start simple, Official miui image for fastboot - installation is recommended via miflash, has all partitions inside the archive. There are also 3 files inside - for easy installation of all partitions, for installing all partitions and formatting the memory, as well as for installing all partitions and locking the bootloader (the memory is formatted automatically), the name of the .bat files speaks for themselves
2.3.2 Next - the installation .zip archive of unofficial MIUI for TWRP. Not all partitions, but the main ones (always stitched into section A), including firmware (stitched into both slots A and B)
2.3.3 Sideload type firmware (99% of all custom ROMs) are divided into two installation methods.
Inside the archive there is a payload.bin file in which the rom and sometimes firmware sections are packed
Installation always goes to the adjacent NOT active memory slot, and after completion, makes the adjacent slot active to load the firmware
Installation via PC, via ADB (on the phone, AOSP recovery adb sideload/twrp adb sideload mode) or installation via TWRP directly from the device
2.4 Custom ROMs for fastboot, usually used for a clean installation, which implies cleaning and data from memory (pictures, etc.) inside sometimes have firmware sections and always rom sections. Inside, as the author saw fit, there are .bat launchers for updating (does not erase all data) and for a clean installation (erases all data)
2.5 Another very important feature of the AB structure in our case is two types of fastboot mod. It is called bootloader - official miui is completely flashed through it, and there is a fastbootD mode that is built into the boot sector in aosp recovery or in twrp, it is also needed for flashing img images. Ask what are the differences if this and that fastboot?
The answer is idiotic
Bootloader can flash all main partitions only in both A and B sections at the same time command type - "fastboot flash system_ab system.img"
He knows how to essentially flash a couple of partitions into a certain slot, we only need in this case vendor_boot and boot command type "fastboot flash boot_a boot.img" or instead of A you need to write B
FastbootD, on the other hand, can flash img images separately into the desired slot A or B
2.6 Poco f3/k40/mi11x does not have a separate partition for recovery/twrp,the whole thing is stored in the boot sector in the ramdisk, and the kernel is also stored there. Several factors follow from this knowledge.
2.6.1 To install TWRP, you must first boot into a temporary TWRP, the command type is "fastboot boot twrp.img". Inside TWRP, in the Advanced tab, click install recovery ramdisk, and select the img twrp image on the phone
2.6.3 To install aosp recvoery, you need to flash boot "fastboot boot boot.img"
2.6.4 After installing magisk, as it is stored in the RAMDISK. If you install TWRP again in ramdisk, the magisk will be deleted
2.6.5 When installing the magisk, TWRP does not crash
2.6.6 When installing kernel.zip via TWRP, TWRPis not deleted.
2.6.7 After updating the ROM, or changing the ROM, the TWRPis deleted, since the boot sector is bundled with all the ROMs as a whole and mainly with aosp recovery included, some romodels can immediately push TWRP into it. But it's better to play it safe and flash it yourself
2.6.8 When entering TWRP, it writes the installation .zip archives to the active slot, and always works with the active slot A or B, the exception concerns firmware, wrote above in paragraph 2.3
2.6.9 install recovery ramdis on surveillance writes TWRP to both slots
Spoiler: 3. Regarding TWRP and AOSP recovery
3.1 There are currently only 2 TWRPs from Nebrassy and from vasishath. What is the difference? God knows. In fact, they are bugged equally strongly, so I will write instructions using the example of Nebrassy, from experience there are no problems with it.
3.2 AOSP recovery is like it was 10 years ago cwm recovery if anyone remembers. Serves only for switching to fastbootD and ADB sideload mode, updating the firmware over the air, and sometimes cleaning the data. Supplied by many ROM developers as a necessary component (in fact, not so)
Now, based on the knowledge above, we have an understanding of how and what works. Now we need to disassemble the installation procedure. Here, too, not everything is so simple. There are two options for each installation. And in addition, we have 10 ways to install firmware. Why 10? And all due to the fact that I was unaware and had to write a small script called DFE. Isn't there a ready-made one on the Internet? According to my tests, they simply don't work.
Spoiler: Briefly about DFE
Somewhere 90% of ROM Developers out of the box have such a function as data encryption, DFE removes "flags" from one file in the /vendor section so that the system encrypts the data "Entire /data section" at startup therefore, just like with TWRP, after changing or updating the firmware, you need to flash it through TWRP.
- Why should I remove encryption? - ask a question
I will answer, in fact, there is no need, if only you are ready to always back up all data to a flash drive or PC from the internal memory of the phone when changing the firmware, because not all firmware have the same encryption keys, and you can install the firmware, but it is simply will not start at best, at worst everything will be encrypted over a new one and all files will be lost.
But literally all the instructions from the developers of the ROM are written precisely taking into account the fact that you will format the date when installing their firmware. Also, if encryption is disabled, TWRP will not ask for a password to see the memory, and therefore your data is at risk when the phone is stolen, since it will not be difficult to pull them out.
For all cases, you cannot do format data before installing the firmware, otherwise the PC will not see the memory, format data is done only at the end of the installation.
Spoiler: Installing temporary TWRP
Method 1:
1. We drop twrp.img into the folder with adb
2. In windows, hold down shift + right mouse button in an empty space in the folder, open a shell or cmd
3. The console will open, in the case of win10 / 11, if this is a shell, you need to register cmd
4. Reboot the phone into fastboot mode / bootloader (volume down + power button) and connect it to the computer via the wire
5. We write to the command "fastboot boot twrp.img"
6. TWRP will start by itself
Method 2:
1.Download TWRP Autoruner https://drive.google.com/file/d/1HsA1XAEzFgEo0n7K1Vf0QqPlyEICzkpd/view?usp=sharing
2. Unpack anywhere
3. Boot into FastBoot
4. Run the batch file in the folder
Spoiler: Setting TWRP to "permanent" - within the same ROM (Before the first ROM update, or before the first ROM change)
Method 1: Works ALWAYS
1. Go to the advanced tab and select install recvoery ramdisk
2. Find the twrp.img file on your phone and select it
3. If TWRP shows "Error opening: No such file or directory"
then you need to change the active slot in the Reboot contribution, then back and flash TWRP into the ramdisk again
Method 2: For TWRP from Nebrassy does not work 100% of the time
In the same place, in the advanced tab, click flash current TWRP
Method 3: For TWRP from Vasishath. does not work 100%
In the same place, in the advanced tab, click Inject TWRP
Before flashing custom, it is recommended to install a miui stock or a custom miui. It is advisable to drain through a fastboot by analogy with the spoiler instruction, from point 1 to point 9
This is done in order to update all sections in memory, remove tails from other ROMs. Refresh the markup of the sections. Otherwise, there may be errors, not working conditional nfc, lags, whatever. In the best case, the ROM simply won't be installed. At worst, there will be a bad opinion about the ROM because of your own wrong actions and an extra day for flashing and configuring another or the same ROM.
All files are additional here​
Spoiler: If the memory in TWRP is not visible
1. You saw that the PC does not see the memory on the device, or the TWRP is empty (this already means that all the data has been erased)
2. Download one of these TWRO to your computer
recovery_vasishath_nonflags.img or recovery_nebrassy_nonflags.img
3. Through that TWRP where everything is empty, we do format data (yes)
4. Reboot bootloader
5. On the PC we prescribe "fastboot boot twrp.img" any of the post
6. TWRP is loaded (the computer and TWRP sees the memory, but this is not all, nothing will work)
7. In the advanced tab, click fix context
8. In the mounts tab, remove the checkbox from the date and put it back.
9. Now you can upload files from your computer
10. You flash the ROM, you can not do the date format again, when the system boots, it will erase everything from memory, and if you did not set dfe, then the date itself will be encrypted, if you set the data in the same way, it will be erased, but there will be no encryption.
Note:
These TWRPs will not see the date (files in memory) if the data is encrypted, usually TWRP asks for a password when entering it, or you can see it in the security tab.
This TWRP works fine with the already decrypted date, if you use the DFE patch, everything works normally
In this TWRP, the encryption flags are simply removed, so that after the date format when entering TWRP, the date is not encrypted with keys from TWRP and does not break from this
Spoiler: Installation using DFE patch (HentaiOS and Proton AOSP excluded)
When using DFE, you should not use internal methods of updating in ROM, when the firmware is updated in the background, and when you reboot it is already updated, as I wrote earlier, the sections are updated, and therefore the DFE stops working, and it is rather difficult to predict when the system has updated itself, and if DFE will stop working, all data will be deleted, and the ROM simply will not start, so it's better to manually set everything.​

!!! The spoiler below is a must-read before doing anything with your device. !!!​
Spoiler: Let's discuss several points at once
Spoiler: 1. Drivers and utilities - download immediately and install so that there are no further questions
1. Fastboot and adb - Tools_r31.0.3
2. Miflash
3. USBDrivers - QDloader
Spoiler: 2. Features and disadvantages of our device
2.1 We have a so-called A/B partition structure - this is when two spaces are used for system partitions (read more in google) the essence is that there are "Firmware" partitions
Spoiler: code
Code:

"aop.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/aop_a"
"aop.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/aop_b"
and there are partitions directly ROM /data, /system /system_ext, /vendor, /product, /odm, /vendor_boot, /boot
2.2 miui based ROMs update all of these sections. In the case of firmware, they are put in both slots at once. Although this is not necessary in essence.
ROMs of a custom type, those based on a "pure" android are often flashed for only partitions of the ROM, but not in 100% case
2.3 For our device, there are 3 types of ROM installation files, 2 of which are divided into two types of installation methods
2.3.1 Let's start simple, Official miui image for fastboot - installation is recommended via miflash, has all partitions inside the archive. There are also 3 files inside - for easy installation of all partitions, for installing all partitions and formatting the memory, as well as for installing all partitions and locking the bootloader (the memory is formatted automatically), the name of the .bat files speaks for themselves
2.3.2 Next - the installation .zip archive of unofficial MIUI for TWRP. Not all partitions, but the main ones (always stitched into section A), including firmware (stitched into both slots A and B)
2.3.3 Sideload type firmware (99% of all custom ROMs) are divided into two installation methods.
Inside the archive there is a payload.bin file in which the rom and sometimes firmware sections are packed
Installation always goes to the adjacent NOT active memory slot, and after completion, makes the adjacent slot active to load the firmware
Installation via PC, via ADB (on the phone, AOSP recovery adb sideload/twrp adb sideload mode) or installation via TWRP directly from the device
2.4 Custom ROMs for fastboot, usually used for a clean installation, which implies cleaning and data from memory (pictures, etc.) inside sometimes have firmware sections and always rom sections. Inside, as the author saw fit, there are .bat launchers for updating (does not erase all data) and for a clean installation (erases all data)
2.5 Another very important feature of the AB structure in our case is two types of fastboot mod. It is called bootloader - official miui is completely flashed through it, and there is a fastbootD mode that is built into the boot sector in aosp recovery or in twrp, it is also needed for flashing img images. Ask what are the differences if this and that fastboot?
The answer is idiotic
Bootloader can flash all main partitions only in both A and B sections at the same time command type - "fastboot flash system_ab system.img"
He knows how to essentially flash a couple of partitions into a certain slot, we only need in this case vendor_boot and boot command type "fastboot flash boot_a boot.img" or instead of A you need to write B
FastbootD, on the other hand, can flash img images separately into the desired slot A or B
2.6 Poco f3/k40/mi11x does not have a separate partition for recovery/twrp,the whole thing is stored in the boot sector in the ramdisk, and the kernel is also stored there. Several factors follow from this knowledge.
2.6.1 To install TWRP, you must first boot into a temporary tvrp, the command type is "fastboot boot twrp.img". Inside TWRP, in the Advanced tab, click install recovery ramdisk, and select the img twrp image on the phone
2.6.3 To install aosp recvoery, you need to flash boot "fastboot boot boot.img"
2.6.4 After installing magisk, as it is stored in the RAMDISK. If you install tvrp again in ramdisk, the magisk will be deleted
2.6.5 When installing the magisk, tvrp does not crash
2.6.6 When installing kernel.zip via TWRP, TWRPis not deleted.
2.6.7 After updating the ROM, or changing the ROM, the TWRPis deleted, since the boot sector is bundled with all the ROMs as a whole and mainly with aosp recovery included, some romodels can immediately push TWRP into it. But it's better to play it safe and flash it yourself
2.6.8 When entering TWRP, it writes the installation .zip archives to the active slot, and always works with the active slot A or B, the exception concerns firmware, wrote above in paragraph 2.3
2.6.9 install recovery ramdis on surveillance writes TWRP to both slots
Spoiler: 3. Regarding TWRP and AOSP recovery
3.1 There are currently only 2 TWRPs from Nebrassy and from vasishath. What is the difference? God knows. In fact, they are bugged equally strongly, so I will write instructions using the example of Nebrassy, from experience there are no problems with it.
3.2 AOSP recovery is like it was 10 years ago cwm recovery if anyone remembers. Serves only for switching to fastbootD and ADB sideload mode, updating the firmware over the air, and sometimes cleaning the data. Supplied by many ROM developers as a necessary component (in fact, not so)
Now, based on the knowledge above, we have an understanding of how and what works. Now we need to disassemble the installation procedure. Here, too, not everything is so simple. There are two options for each installation. And in addition, we have 10 ways to install firmware. Why 10? And all due to the fact that I was unaware and had to write a small script called DFE. Isn't there a ready-made one on the Internet? According to my tests, they simply don't work.
Spoiler: Briefly about DFE
Somewhere 90% of ROM Developers out of the box have such a function as data encryption, DFE removes "flags" from one file in the /vendor section so that the system encrypts the data "Entire /data section" at startup therefore, just like with TWRP, after changing or updating the firmware, you need to flash it through TWRP.
- Why should I remove encryption? - ask a question
I will answer, in fact, there is no need, if only you are ready to always back up all data to a flash drive or PC from the internal memory of the phone when changing the firmware, because not all firmware have the same encryption keys, and you can install the firmware, but it is simply will not start at best, at worst everything will be encrypted over a new one and all files will be lost.
But literally all the instructions from the developers of the ROM are written precisely taking into account the fact that you will format the date when installing their firmware. Also, if encryption is disabled, TvRP will not ask for a password to see the memory, and therefore your data is at risk when the phone is stolen, since it will not be difficult to pull them out.
For all cases, you cannot do format data before installing the firmware, otherwise the PC will not see the memory, format data is done only at the end of the installation.
Spoiler: Installing temporary TWRP
Method 1:
1. We drop twrp.img into the folder with adb
2. In windows, hold down shift + right mouse button in an empty space in the folder, open a shell or cmd
3. The console will open, in the case of win10 / 11, if this is a shell, you need to register cmd
4. Reboot the phone into fastboot mode / bootloader (volume down + power button) and connect it to the computer via the wire
5. We write to the command "fastboot boot twrp.img"
6. TWRP will start by itself
Method 2:
1.Download TWRP Autoruner https://drive.google.com/file/d/1HsA1XAEzFgEo0n7K1Vf0QqPlyEICzkpd/view?usp=sharing
2. Unpack anywhere
3. Boot into FastBoot
4. Run the batch file in the folder
Spoiler: Setting TWRP to "permanent" - within the same ROM (Before the first ROM update, or before the first ROM change)
Method 1: Works ALWAYS
1. Go to the advanced tab and select install recvoery ramdisk
2. Find the twrp.img file on your phone and select it
3. If TWRP shows "Error opening: No such file or directory"
then you need to change the active slot in the Reboot contribution, then back and flash TWRP into the ramdisk again
Method 2: For TWRP from Nebrassy does not work 100% of the time
In the same place, in the advanced tab, click flash current TWRP
Method 3: For TWRP from Vasishath. does not work 100%
In the same place, in the advanced tab, click Inject TWRP
Before flashing custom, it is recommended to install a miui stock or a custom miui. It is advisable to drain through a fastboot by analogy with the spoiler instruction, from point 1 to point 9
This is done in order to update all sections in memory, remove tails from other ROMs. Refresh the markup of the sections. Otherwise, there may be errors, not working conditional nfc, lags, whatever. In the best case, the ROM simply won't be installed. At worst, there will be a bad opinion about the ROM because of your own wrong actions and an extra day for flashing and configuring another or the same ROM.

Spoiler: If the memory in TWRP is not visible
1. You saw that the PC does not see the memory on the device, or the tvrp is empty (this already means that all the data has been erased)
2. Download one of these TVRPs to your computer
recovery_vasishath_nonflags.img or recovery_nebrassy_nonflags.img
3. Through that TWRP where everything is empty, we do format data (yes)
4. Reboot bootloader
5. On the PC we prescribe "fastboot boot twrp.img" any of the post
6. TvRP is loaded (the computer and TWRP sees the memory, but this is not all, nothing will work)
7. In the advanced tab, click fix context
8. In the mounts tab, remove the checkbox from the date and put it back.
9. Now you can upload files from your computer
10. You flash the ROM, you can not do the date format again, when the system boots, it will erase everything from memory, and if you did not set dfe, then the date itself will be encrypted, if you set the data in the same way, it will be erased, but there will be no encryption.
Note:
These TWRPs will not see the date (files in memory) if the data is encrypted, usually TWRP asks for a password when entering it, or you can see it in the security tab.
This TWRP works fine with the already decrypted date, if you use the DFE patch, everything works normally
In this TWRP, the encryption flags are simply removed, so that after the date format when entering TVRP, the date is not encrypted with keys from TWRP and does not break from this
Spoiler: Installation using DFE patch (HentaiOS and Proton AOSP excluded)
When using DFE, you should not use internal methods of updating in ROM, when the firmware is updated in the background, and when you reboot it is already updated, as I wrote earlier, the sections are updated, and therefore the DFE stops working, and it is rather difficult to predict when the system has updated itself, and if DFE will stop working, all data will be deleted, and the ROM simply will not start, so it's better to manually set everything.​

Mandatory instructions for beginners (and not only beginners) to install ROM and other on poco f3​Prerequisite, unlocking the bootloader​For questions, if something is not clear, please write to "Conversations", I will try to correct it in a post with a simpler explanation. And I will answer the question (I am not a 24/7 support service, so duplicate your question in the ROM discussion thread in order to give an answer if I'm busy)​
!!! The spoiler below is a must-read before doing anything with your device. !!!​
Spoiler: Let's discuss several points at once
Spoiler: 1. Drivers and utilities - download immediately and install so that there are no further questions
1. Fastboot and adb - Tools_r31.0.3
2. Miflash
3. USBDrivers - QDloader
Spoiler: 2. Features and disadvantages of our device
2.1 We have a so-called A/B partition structure - this is when two spaces are used for system partitions (read more in google) the essence is that there are "Firmware" partitions
Spoiler: code
Code:
"dsp.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/dsp_a"
"dsp.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/dsp_b"
"xbl_config.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/xbl_config_a"
"xbl_config.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/xbl_config_b"
"modem.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/modem_a"
"modem.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/modem_b"
"tz.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/tz_a"
"tz.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/tz_b"
"bluetooth.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/bluetooth_a"
"bluetooth.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/bluetooth_b"
"abl.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/abl_a"
"abl.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/abl_b"
"featenabler.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/featenabler_a"
"featenabler.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/featenabler_b"
"keymaster.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/keymaster_a"
"keymaster.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/keymaster_b"
"uefisecapp.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/uefisecapp_a"
"uefisecapp.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/uefisecapp_b"
"qupfw.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/qupfw_a"
"qupfw.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/qupfw_b"
"xbl.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/xbl_a"
"xbl.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/xbl_b"
"cmnlib.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/cmnlib_a"
"cmnlib.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/cmnlib_b"
"cmnlib64.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/cmnlib64_a"
"cmnlib64.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/cmnlib64_b"
"devcfg.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/devcfg_a"
"devcfg.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/devcfg_b"
"hyp.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/hyp_a"
"hyp.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/hyp_b"
"imagefv.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/imagefv_a"
"imagefv.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/imagefv_b"
"aop.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/aop_a"
"aop.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/aop_b"
and there are partitions directly ROM /data, /system /system_ext, /vendor, /product, /odm, /vendor_boot, /boot
2.2 miui based ROMs update all of these sections. In the case of firmware, they are put in both slots at once. Although this is not necessary in essence.
ROMs of a custom type, those based on a "pure" android are often flashed for only partitions of the ROM, but not in 100% case
2.3 For our device, there are 3 types of ROM installation files, 2 of which are divided into two types of installation methods
2.3.1 Let's start simple, Official miui image for fastboot - installation is recommended via miflash, has all partitions inside the archive. There are also 3 files inside - for easy installation of all partitions, for installing all partitions and formatting the memory, as well as for installing all partitions and locking the bootloader (the memory is formatted automatically), the name of the .bat files speaks for themselves
2.3.2 Next - the installation .zip archive of unofficial MIUI for TWRP. Not all partitions, but the main ones (always stitched into section A), including firmware (stitched into both slots A and B)
2.3.3 Sideload type firmware (99% of all custom ROMs) are divided into two installation methods.
Inside the archive there is a payload.bin file in which the rom and sometimes firmware sections are packed
Installation always goes to the adjacent NOT active memory slot, and after completion, makes the adjacent slot active to load the firmware
Installation via PC, via ADB (on the phone, AOSP recovery adb sideload/twrp adb sideload mode) or installation via TWRP directly from the device
2.4 Custom ROMs for fastboot, usually used for a clean installation, which implies cleaning and data from memory (pictures, etc.) inside sometimes have firmware sections and always rom sections. Inside, as the author saw fit, there are .bat launchers for updating (does not erase all data) and for a clean installation (erases all data)
2.5 Another very important feature of the AB structure in our case is two types of fastboot mod. It is called bootloader - official miui is completely flashed through it, and there is a fastbootD mode that is built into the boot sector in aosp recovery or in twrp, it is also needed for flashing img images. Ask what are the differences if this and that fastboot?
The answer is idiotic
Bootloader can flash all main partitions only in both A and B sections at the same time command type - "fastboot flash system_ab system.img"
He knows how to essentially flash a couple of partitions into a certain slot, we only need in this case vendor_boot and boot command type "fastboot flash boot_a boot.img" or instead of A you need to write B
FastbootD, on the other hand, can flash img images separately into the desired slot A or B
2.6 Poco f3/k40/mi11x does not have a separate partition for recovery/twrp,the whole thing is stored in the boot sector in the ramdisk, and the kernel is also stored there. Several factors follow from this knowledge.
2.6.1 To install TWRP, you must first boot into a temporary tvrp, the command type is "fastboot boot twrp.img". Inside TWRP, in the Advanced tab, click install recovery ramdisk, and select the img twrp image on the phone
2.6.3 To install aosp recvoery, you need to flash boot "fastboot boot boot.img"
2.6.4 After installing magisk, as it is stored in the RAMDISK. If you install tvrp again in ramdisk, the magisk will be deleted
2.6.5 When installing the magisk, tvrp does not crash
2.6.6 When installing kernel.zip via TWRP, TWRPis not deleted.
2.6.7 After updating the ROM, or changing the ROM, the TWRPis deleted, since the boot sector is bundled with all the ROMs as a whole and mainly with aosp recovery included, some romodels can immediately push TWRP into it. But it's better to play it safe and flash it yourself
2.6.8 When entering TWRP, it writes the installation .zip archives to the active slot, and always works with the active slot A or B, the exception concerns firmware, wrote above in paragraph 2.3
2.6.9 install recovery ramdis on surveillance writes TWRP to both slots
Spoiler: 3. Regarding TWRP and AOSP recovery
3.1 There are currently only 2 TWRPs from Nebrassy and from vasishath. What is the difference? God knows. In fact, they are bugged equally strongly, so I will write instructions using the example of Nebrassy, from experience there are no problems with it.
3.2 AOSP recovery is like it was 10 years ago cwm recovery if anyone remembers. Serves only for switching to fastbootD and ADB sideload mode, updating the firmware over the air, and sometimes cleaning the data. Supplied by many ROM developers as a necessary component (in fact, not so)
Now, based on the knowledge above, we have an understanding of how and what works. Now we need to disassemble the installation procedure. Here, too, not everything is so simple. There are two options for each installation. And in addition, we have 10 ways to install firmware. Why 10? And all due to the fact that I was unaware and had to write a small script called DFE. Isn't there a ready-made one on the Internet? According to my tests, they simply don't work.
Spoiler: Briefly about DFE
Somewhere 90% of ROM Developers out of the box have such a function as data encryption, DFE removes "flags" from one file in the /vendor section so that the system encrypts the data "Entire /data section" at startup therefore, just like with TWRP, after changing or updating the firmware, you need to flash it through TWRP.
- Why should I remove encryption? - ask a question
I will answer, in fact, there is no need, if only you are ready to always back up all data to a flash drive or PC from the internal memory of the phone when changing the firmware, because not all firmware have the same encryption keys, and you can install the firmware, but it is simply will not start at best, at worst everything will be encrypted over a new one and all files will be lost.
But literally all the instructions from the developers of the ROM are written precisely taking into account the fact that you will format the date when installing their firmware. Also, if encryption is disabled, TvRP will not ask for a password to see the memory, and therefore your data is at risk when the phone is stolen, since it will not be difficult to pull them out.
For all cases, you cannot do format data before installing the firmware, otherwise the PC will not see the memory, format data is done only at the end of the installation.

Method 3: For TWRP from Vasishath. does not work 100%
In the same place, in the advanced tab, click Inject TWRP
Before flashing custom, it is recommended to install a miui stock or a custom miui. It is advisable to drain through a fastboot by analogy with the spoiler instruction, from point 1 to point 9
This is done in order to update all sections in memory, remove tails from other ROMs. Refresh the markup of the sections. Otherwise, there may be errors, not working conditional nfc, lags, whatever. In the best case, the ROM simply won't be installed. At worst, there will be a bad opinion about the ROM because of your own wrong actions and an extra day for flashing and configuring another or the same ROM.

11. In the case of SystemRW, you need to reboot into TWRP, then either put it in RamDisk and just reboot, or click reboot bootloader and boot from the computer back to TWRP.
12. Repeat step 10.
13. If you have not used DFE before, then you need to do format DATA (yes). If you have updated the firmware in this way, then you do not need to do Format data. If you have changed the firmware, it is recommended to do wipe data, otherwise either the firmware will not boot, or it will not work correctly

Hi @LeeGarChat thanks for your interest in my SystemRW / SuperRW feat. MakeRW script
Does it work well on your Poco F3 device? You never sent me your log files...
If you're going to use my SystemRW / SuperRW feat. MakeRW project (or parts thereof) in your thread and make a video about it could you please at least have the decency to include a visible link (not hidden inside of spoiler tags!) to
the official SystemRW / SuperRW feat. MakeRW by lebigmac project thread​in the first post of this thread as well as in your video description? Thanks
And please keep in mind that unauthorized, unverified re-uploads of my SystemRW project files are not allowed!
The official download links in the official SystemRW / SuperRW feat. MakeRW by lebigmac thread work just fine!
I can't offer any customer support for old, unofficial, deprecated, unverified versions of my script which were reuploaded by 3rd parties but I can only offer support for the latest official version of my script downloaded directly from the official SystemRW / SuperRW feat. MakeRW by lebigmac project thread
Thank you!
Good news! New version of © SystemRW / SuperRW feat. MakeRW™ by lebigmac ® coming soon! Stay tuned!​
Hey Guys i need your help, i followed all the steps in that post but i could not find the " Onekey injection" so i ignored that step and installed the xiaomi eu rom. Everything went well, now when i want to boot in recovery mode it shows up the stock recovery
So my question is when i want to update my phone in the future, i have to install it through TWRP and if my data will be lost or no?

which version did you flash of xiaomi eu, the weekly or the stable?
The latest versions should flash twrp as well. However, if you only upgrade there is no need to format data, so you do not lose your data, I always recommend that you do a backup before any modding operation because you never know what can happen.
To flash twrp download the image from here:
[RECOVERY] [12] [OFFICIAL] TeamWin Recovery Project

put the image filenametwrp.img in the folder where there is adb and fastboot
go to the folder where there is adb and fastboot, rename the filenametwrp.img to twrp.img then go to the address bar and type cmd and press enter, (a prompt window should open)
(In the phone) make sure you have enabled usb debug in developer settings and have authorized the pc.
now turn off the phone and start it in fastboot, then connect it to the pc via the usb cable
in the cmd you opened before type this
Code:
fastboot deviced
to check if it is recognized
if the phone code appears you can boot twrp by typing this
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
hit enter and the phone should boot into twrp
now in twrp go to advanced and search "install current twrp" in the options at the bottom below and flash.
you should now have twrp.

I'll reply in his stead ....
As of now - latest Xiaomi betas for global 12.5.4 it does not work correctly doing it the way he described ( flashing 1.32rw inside twrp has to be done twice lol ) After flashing it twice you have to flash his patch then reboot the phone and format data.
Now phone will say decrypted but for who knows what reason everything is broken. Lots of silent crashes from the systemui and overall slowdown of the system/several apps refusing to work.
Fast charging is gone as well....
Strangely much less stuff appears to be broken in EEA version of the miui , still needs flashing twice the main script but at least fast charging works afterwards. System is slightly more stable but still overall suffering from slowdown.
I personally found that manual method of creating image from booted android does work somewhat. You only need to do it once by executing systemrw.sh then flashing the super.img .
What's the catch? You can't flash super.img through "fastboot flash super" command , it mangles partitions to the point where /vendor and /odm can't mount inside twrp.
I am curious tho maybe I don't need to enter twrp after flashing super image via fastboot? Maybe his fix is not necessary then and I just need to wipe and boot system to fix /vendor and /odm not being able to mount.... Hmmm
I'll try this when I'm free sometime , but for now I'm not using this due to performance issues mainly.
His script does let you at least get that decrypted status but for who knows what reason lots of stuff is broken... Could be magisk being flashed onto phone before partitions are extracted or overall twrp not being anywhere close to stable enough to handle all of this?

I do NOT recommend formatting /data after running my SystemRW / SuperRW feat. MakeRW script in recovery! You will lose all your personal files if you do this!
You just have to make sure that /data partition is properly decrypted and mounted in your custom recovery before running my SystemRW / SuperRW feat. MakeRW script. That's all.
im on miui global 12.5.6 do i need to flash the stock rom before flashing custom rom?
I tried the Custom MIUI Process with OneOS and when flashing ROM and after Recovery to Ramdisk and reboot, the internal storage contents disappear. What is the reason ? Caused both on 3.5.2 TWRP and 3.6.0 Official one.
Can be used as reference for xiaomi 11t pro? Cause I didn't see any custom rom for this device

Development [RECOVERY][3.7.0_12-8][UNOFFICIAL][UNIFIED] TWRP with A12/A13 encryption support

This is an unofficial build of TWRP, based on the Android 12.1 branch, that supports encryption used by Android 12 and 13 ROMs. This build is tested on OP9 pro, but it was confirmed to work on regular OP9 too.
As always I'm not responsible for any bricked device or data loss resulting from the use of this TWRP builds. You use this at your own risk.
For ROMs using FBEv1 encryption aka A11 encryption, please use the official builds by @Nebrassy from:

Download:
twrp-3.7.0-12.1 - Google Drive
drive.google.com
Installation:
Permanent installation is not possible with TMO stock ROM installed.
Installation overwrites all boot partition changes done previously (e.g. by Magisk or custom kernel). So you have to reflash all zips that change the boot partition after TWRP is installed.
For permanent installation, you have three options depending on your current system.
1. Option for rooted devices:
Download the twrp-installer zip
Flash it with Magisk manager or some other kernel flash utility
Reflash your custom kernel and Magisk.apk if previously installed (see example of how to install with Magisk manager below). Or alternatively flash zips in TWRP.
Don't reboot
Rename downloaded Magisk.apk to Magisk.zip
Open Magisk app
Select Modules tab
Click "Install from storage"
Select Magisk.zip
2. Option for users with other custom recoveries but without root:
Download the twrp-installer zip
Reboot to recovery
Flash it with "adb sideload twrp-installer*.zip"
Reboot to recovery
Reflash your custom kernel and Magisk.apk if previously installed
3. Option is universal:
Download boot.img
Reboot to bootloader
Run "fastboot boot boot.img" with the TWRP boot image on your PC
Go to Advanced > Flash Current TWRP
Reflash your custom kernel and Magisk.apk if previously installed
Try without installation:
Download boot.img
Reboot to bootloader
Run "fastboot boot boot.img" with the TWRP boot image on your PC
Uninstall:
Just flash the boot partition with your current ROMs boot image with the following steps.
Replace "YOUR ROM BOOTIMAGE" with the filename of the extracted boot image of your current ROM.
Reboot to bootloader
Run "fastboot flash boot_a YOUR ROM BOOTIMAGE"
Run "fastboot flash boot_b YOUR ROM BOOTIMAGE"
Alternatively you can flash your currently installed OTA zip, which overwrites boot on the unused slot, but not on the currently used one.
TWRP Updates:
Download and flash the twrp-installer zip
After that reflash your custom kernel and Magisk if previously installed
ROM Updates:
Please follow the official update instructions for your ROM!
If they give an option to update via recovery you have to substitute adb sideload commands with zip installations. Also use the "Automatically reflash TWRP after flashing a ROM" option, if you are going to install a ROM zip to preserve TWRP installation.
In case your ROM does not provide a recovery update instruction you can try to update via recovery but you are on the safe side if you follow the official instructions. They always have a reason for their particular update instructions!
Instructions that work for me (on LOS based ROMs):
Flash ROM zip with "Automatically reflash TWRP after flashing a ROM" checked
Flash your previously installed zips (custom kernel, Gapps, Magisk, etc)
Reboot to system
If Gapps packages keep crashing:
Reboot to TWRP
Flash Gapps again
Reboot to system
For OOS updates should work out of the box, but if you have issues you can follow these steps (I haven't tested them):

About backups/restore:
Restore data only WITHOUT pin/pattern set.
If you restore a backup made from another ROM, then the currently installed, you may have to format data. So please manually copy all contents from /sdcard to a PC or flash drive.
Backups can be made with or without pin/pattern set. It is always good practice to copy your backups to your PC or an USB drive. Also after you restored your data partition you have to reboot to system and do a second reboot to get a working system.
To make first boot faster and eliminate the need to reboot again, additionally use the step mandatory for OOS users.
If you want to copy your backup to PC, but it doesn't show up, flash change_backup_selinux_context.zip, which is available in download folder.
For OOS users:
When data is restored, you have to delete "/data/system/users/0/package-restrictions.xml" before rebooting to system.
In case you restore a backup with pin/pattern set or have some other issues I have a guide that works for me:

How to use MTP, adb and fastbootD:
Windows:
Install official Google USB drivers and select the right USB drivers. For MTP and adb, the WinUSB driver is sufficient on Windows 11. For fastbootD, Google drivers (Android Bootloader interface) has to be chosen.
You may have to select WinMTP for MTP and Google USB drivers for adb, if you run Windows 10.
To use adb on Windows, MTP has to be disabled with "Mount->Disable MTP" in TWRP.
Steps for choosing a specific driver (no the exact wording):
Connect phone in specific mode
Open device manager
Right click on phone either under "Android device" or "USB device", depending on mode
Select "update driver"
Select 2. option "browse my computer"
Select "pick from available drivers"
Pick driver according to above description
Linux:
Intall the fastboot and adb packages for your distribution
Set udev rules. There might be a package for your distro or use this gh repo: https://github.com/M0Rf30/android-udev-rules
Add user to the group used in udev rules. Most common are "plugdev" and "adbusers"

Download:
twrp-3.7.0-12.1 - Google Drive
drive.google.com
Installation:
Get your rom's vendor_boot image. For most ROMs this can usually be downloaded. For OOS based ROMs you can get it for example by extracting it from the official payload.bin with payload-dumper-go. A third universal option, if you have root, is to use the command "dd if=/dev/block/by-name/vendor_boot_SLOT of=/sdcard/vendor_boot.img" on your device. This writes the vendor_boot image to your sdcard folder, but you have to substitute SLOT with either a or b, depending on your currently active slot.
Reboot to bootloader.
Run "fastboot flash vendor_boot vendor_boot.img" with the TWRP vendor_boot image.
Run "fastboot boot boot.img" with the TWRP boot image.
Go to Advanced > Flash Current TWRP.
After that is done, if you were using a custom kernel, reflash it now.
If you were using magisk, reflash it now.
Reboot to bootloader.
Run "fastboot flash vendor_boot vendor_boot.img" with the ROM vendor_boot image from step one.
In the case you just want to test TWRP without installation, please skip steps 5-7.
Permanent installation works fine for me with crdroid 13 and magisk installed. I have not tested any other ROMs or custom kernels. After permanent installation you can at any time reboot to recovery without reflashing vendor_boot. During a ROM update use the "Automatically reflash TWRP after flashing a ROM" option in the install zip menu to preserve TWRP.
