Is there any difference between fastboot and recovery miui roms as they differ in size. Any performance difference or anything.

The recovery images all over this site seem really sketchy, but roms often come with great recovery and updates. I can flash the rom's boot.img during the update, but I also see that fastboot has a flash to recovery option. Is it OK to flash the boot.img to recovery or do I have to somehow extract recovery out of the boot.img? If I do a flash to recovery does that make TWRP permanent or can it still be overwritten by flashing new roms?

Get twrp from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/general/twrp-3-0-1-amami-t3350827 and flash with Rash for non-stock roms. For stock roms, net's xzdr is best - http://nut.xperia-files.com/
If a rom has a recovery included, it will probably overwrite your recovery. For best staying power, make sure you use real recovery - http://forum.xda-developers.com/son...ral/bootloader-devices-real-recovery-t3117568 but even then you might still have to reflash your img, depending on the rom you install.

Thank you so much. I had the latest TWRP from the AICP rom but it was within the boot image and I couldn't seem to find a plain TWRP image that wasn't on some sketchy thread.
Also I was unaware that my firmware was out of date. When I was installing a rom I saw a number that related to the latest firmware so I assumed I had it. I was confused why using flashboot to flash to recovery wasn't working. It looks like the recovery image was always within the boot image and was getting wiped out with roms that didn't include a recovery image in there (AH HEM PARANOID ANDROID). It seems that I was able to flash the img to the special recovery now and I don't think it's getting wiped out. Thanks very much.
Hello,
It's been a while since I did any phone flashing - currently running on MIUI V11.0.3.0.PEIMIXM with unlocked bootloader, so I want to make sure not to screw anything:
- put phone on fastboot
- 'fastboot boot twrp.img'
- wipe system, data, dalvik, cache, vendor
- set data, cache to f2fs
- flash xiaomi.eu
- flash custom kernel (rad or panda maybe?)
- flash anything else (like GCam)
- reboot
Is that the correct way to do that?
Some changes are
1. After fastboot boot twrp u have to flash recovery zip file to make it permanent (orange fox is recommended)
2. Eu rom stock kernel is best (I am using it and gives good battery backup miui 11 v 20.3.26

Thanks for the response. Does Orange Fox and EU rom kernel support F2FS? Have you tried other kernels on EU rom?
Why do some devices have fastboot roms while others don't?
Do developers create them from the recovery roms?
I think, now I need the original boot, can somebody help me?
I've got the Mi Note 8T
I did his :
fastboot devices
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
than the difficulty:
fastboot flash boot twrp.img
instead of:
fastboot boot twrp.img
Now, I've flashed the TWRP, but System doesn't want to boot.
Your miui version? I do have note 8T, but only the latest EU version. Otherwise, you might try any custom rom instead, they always come with boot.img
@x3r0.13urn
How do I do this? Flashing the MIUI on it?
I am using redmi note 8
I have installed pixel experience recovery in my phone (using laptop adb sideload) and boot into recovery page but instead of pixel experience recovery it boot into Miui recovery 5.0.(I try to install pixel experience plus redmi note 8 ginkgo Android 13 based may patch update)
Well that's strange. Try to flash twrp recovery using adb then boot into recovery mode from fastboot using buttons. Make sure not to reboot your phone to system before booting in recovery first. If that doesn't work then simply "fastboot boot 'filename.img'", and flash recovery from it. That might work.
