I want to flash custom rom on this phone, but without twrp I can't flash zip file, so I'm stuck with older version of gsi, without twrp, I can't root my devices for other Rom, so if anyone had skill to do so, please take your time and build twrp for people in needs, thanks
Which custom ROM?
Surely the custom ROM developer will have instructions of how to flash their custom ROM.....

GSI can be flashed over ADB & TWRP thats what he means

GSI is a system image. On a dynamic partition device, that should be flashed through fastbootd. TWRP isn't needed for that.
TWRP will come, everyone must be patient...
Do you believe there will be any custom rom (not GSI) for this device?
As I research on previous models it doesn't seems like is ever going to happen
Not many but ROG 3 had a few custom ROMS...
Yesterday I posted a Beta TWRP for this device on Telegram. If you want to try it, here's the link:
EDIT: Removed TG link. See two posts down.
You barely need custom ROMs for these devices. The stock firmware is already quite lean and you can pretty much tweak, change and optimize them as you please. Signature spoofing works too...
Official TWRP is now available: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/official-twrp-for-asus-rog-phone-6-6-pro-qualcomm-only.4518029/

My op3 is running on cm14.1 jgcaap and I was planning to go back to OOs. I want to flash 3.2.8. Should I flash through twrp or adb side load ?

You can do either but ensure two things for avoiding a possible bootloop. One is the TWRP and the other is wiping all except internal storage before flashing the ROM.
You should have the modified TWRP 3.0.2-23.
Wipe, flash ROM and flash TWRP before booting as the existing TWRP is likely to be overwritten by the stock recovery. Speaking from experience!
Though I was going from 3.2.7 to 3.2.8, TWRP was overwritten which I found only after booting and when I tried to get back into recovery.
Hi. what's the difference between the official and modded twrp? And is it better to have which one? Thanks

The reason of the existence of the modified TWRP is the inability of the original one to deal with the OOS community builds. The modified version is capable of flashing these builds.
Some older versions of recoveries have problems flashing some newer android version so you should always use the newest TWRP release out there and since the original release is a little bit outdated, the modified one is the better choice if you want to use Nougat
If you want to stay with Marshmallow then the original TWRP release would also do the trick for you (I use the original one too)

Ooohh. If i flashed the modified one, i could still be able to flash the official oos builds? I'm going to use the toolkit provided and it seems that uses the modified twrp one.

Yes this is no problem, you can flash the older builds with the modified twrp, so no worries.

No problem, but even if the modified one couldn't handle older android versions then you can always flash another twrp which works for your desired task. So if you have twrp 3.0.2-23 installed you can go back to 3.0.2-1 or even lower without any problems

Oh. Okay. Just a question though, does unlocking the bootloader also wipes the files in the phone such as the images and music?

Yes it does.. That's the reason I unlock the bootloader as soon as I get a new device
i was on freedom os . i am back on stock oxygen os but i have 2 issues.
1) when i got an update to 3.2.7 it showed in german that there is an update even though the language i chose was english
2) The boot animation shows the freedom os splash screen and then the boots into stock. Ihave got the boot animation of stock os but need instructions on how to flash the zip.
Can someone throw light on the above 2 issues?
Hi everyone
Sorry I am confused; there does not seem to be an ultimate universal root / twrp installation guide for the Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite phone (my son's phone) in 2019.
No offense intended but all these various posts on the topic just help to confuse people!
I managed to unlock the bootloader but can anybody please tell me what is the easiest / user-friendliest way to install twrp (which version?) and root the phone so that I may proceed with flashing LineageOS afterwards to get rid of all the bloatware.?
what about these partitions A & B?
Thanks a lot in advance
https://github.com/tkchn/daisyinstall/blob/master/README.md
This is the guide youre looking for
@barumbads: Thank YOU!
[EDIT] er... this is for flashing a custom rom!
I did some extra research out of XDA
[Guide] How to root Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite
and
How To Root Mi A2 / A2 Lite (Magisk) and Install TWRP Recovery
but again... confusing! which one should I go for?
(I already tried the later one and created another post following an issue with it!)

It depends on what you want to do.
Root doesnt need TWRP, just Magisk. There's a guide on here.
Flashing custom ROMs needs TWRP. Each custom ROM has specific instructions.
There's no one-size-fits-all solution for this phone.

Hi @a1291762 & thanks.
This is what I am saying it is confusing; I have been thru a few phones (samsungs, LGs, lately Xiaomi...)
and the process was first install twrp then root and then you could flash roms
I know when you flash LineageOS, you get root included in dev options so from your explanations I will look how to flash LineageOS but currently I'm struggling installing twrp as you have seen in my other post

My last phone didn't have A/B or encryption or use Magisk for rooting... So for me everything about this phone was new and different.
I started with stock (android one means I didn't immediately want a custom ROM). Then added Magisk. I added TWRP after edxposed caused me bootloops (magisk manager CLI can run from TWRP). I haven't installed a custom ROM yet but I've got a custom splash and bootanim.
hello guys! im rooting phones some years now but first time im afraid to do that i see alot hard bricks etc so i want to ask
i have the last firmware now global (phone is global 2) if i put twrp for magisk i have to stop upgrade the phone right?
second. i never liked stock roms so again... if i put twrp i can flash whatever rom i want or there are steps every time so i wont brick the phone? thank u guys for ur time
dont do it
For rooting stock ROM, you can flash twrp and flash magisk but you should be careful to pick a recovery which is for android 10 and also not for CFW.
For flashing custom roms, you should read the megathread. It's not very complicated and if you follow the exact steps, you will not get bricked.

It's all explained in the megathread, sir. For custom ROMs you need CFW recovery but for you to be on CFW you need to flash CFW with a non-CFW recovery.
Best way to do it is in the CrDroid post.
Have a nice day!
tl;dr: flash Android 9 then megathread

i tried rooting with magisk on latest android 10 miui 11 , basically you will fail safetynet and basic integrity will fail as well you can try to hide fingerprint with magisk busybox and props module and type su to give termux root access and edit fingerprint to pixel 4 but it's not guaranteed i don't know if there is google attestation hardware in begonia anyways you can try.
here's a pic from pixel experience safetynet.(not rooted)

why would you want twrp when there are no roms?
you could try flashing a gsi, or rooting the tab though..

apparently all GSIs have bugs with this device though, so maybe go for root.

Since when was TWRP specific to flashing ROM only? People use TWRP to perform nandroid backup or for flashing zip files for Magisk modules or whatever. Flashing ROM is just one of the things you can do.
And why would you stick with stock recovery anyway? Having custom recovery like TWRP or FOX is always a good thing, regardless of custom ROM availability or not. People should learn about the fundamentals of a recovery.

Sorry mate but I am aware of magisk modules and all, that's why I linked a root guide...
Also, on xiaomi devices unlocking the bootloader is a long and tedious process, and the Mi Pad 5 was relatively new when I made my reply, so I didn't want to:
(a) void someone's warranty
(b) encourage them to flash unofficial, untested TWRP (most likely bugged anyways)
(c) brick their device by flashing beta TWRP
Of course, I understand that custom recoveries have many advantages over stock, but at the time of writing my reply, there were no official custom recoveries for this device, and there were only a couple of beta/untested builds.
Cheers!
PS: No one would make a nandroid backup if they weren't going to make modifications to their device (adb/root/magisk), so really, all uses of custom roms stem off of device modifications, which are granted through root access.
EDIT: Sorry I just checked, there were no TWRP builds available at the time of my reply, hence why I provided none and also asked that sarcastic question. At the time, you had to manually patch the boot.img via adb.
Hello all!
I am an user of OnePlus 9 pro (T-mobile). I don't want the pink startup screen, and I found a lot of resources here can help me on it.
I have backup all my personal data. I have unlocked the sim and bootloader (using the official unlock_token.bin). What is the next step?
I am lost here since there are some different posts (and some posted last year, I am not sure if this still work or not).
Thank you all!
Flash a rom or custom oos
First off do not update to A12, make sure USB debug is enabled, auto updates disabled....do that and I hope you are on A11...if so, I have exactly what you need

I would stay away from custom roms, I have seen too many people having problems. Secondly as of right now, A12 is buggy so that is why I stay with stock A11 from T-Mobile. With the setup I can give you, you can have any custom bootanimation and custom systemwide font you want.....
First off, download and install Magisk v25.2 app from GitHub website and install it to your phone. Next download the attached file to the folder with your platform files.....
Download Magisk from this link to your phone and install it.
https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v25.2/Magisk-v25.2.apk
Then download this link to your platform tools folder on PC...
Download twrp-3.6.2_11-0-lemonadep.img
Download page for twrp-3.6.2_11-0-lemonadep.img
dl.twrp.me
Then download this link to your phone storage...

If you are focused on upgrading to A12 or A12 then what I have will not work. As for the custom ROM, possible it may work, but you need to follow the steps to the letter. Any OP9P custom ROM will work from the XDA forums, the question is, will there be issues? Very possible. Good luck on your journey.....

Bricked as in black screen? Or does it boot to fastboot? What version of lineage are you trying to run? And what OOS were you on? You need to be on OOS 12 to run lineage 19. And twrp is not the recovery to use for that.
Look before you leap.....read read read and make sure to follow ALL steps 1step at a time.....
