I tried MiUi MM 6.0 but didnt liked it. It comes with lots of bugs. So now I want to revert back to MiUi Kitkat. I searched for how to revert back and found these two useful thread :
http://en.miui.com/thread-218609-1-1.html
http://en.miui.com/thread-217420-1-1.html
So basically both of these two guides use MiFlash to revert back to MiUi KK, using flash*.bat files and reverting back to 2 system partition layout. It is needed because MiFlash can't find required 2 system partitions etc.
I am currently using TWRP 3.0 recovery. My query is, TWRP is not flashing ROM in fastboot mode, so can I just flash MiUi KK rom on current MiUi MM ROM ? TWRP dont need 2 partitions to flash KK Rom. Am I correct ? Or flashing using MiFlash is the only way ?
Directly flash the KitKat ROM normally

So that means I will still be having merged system partition and phone will be running miui KK ? So recovery flashable zip file of miui KK cannot change partition layout and will get installed on merged partition too ?

I haven't actually tried it. But in the previous normal extended partition (not MIUI MM one), installing MIUI KK didn't change partition and you would get 1.2G system size. Now with that extended partition, you can install normal MIUI KK ROMs but not the 5.12.17 Alpha (if I'm not wrong with the no.) which probably bricks.
So the only KK ROM which affects your partitions is that alpha ROM which you flash to merge patition officially.

That's what i was thinking 5.12.17 probably could alter partition. I flashed this version earlier with TWRP and it merged my system partitions as i needed. But i hope old KK roms dont alter it.. I don't want to brick my phone again..
It is helps someone, I Successfully reverted back to miui kk on merged partition by flashing rom zip file from twrp recovery.
If you simply just wanted to go back to MIUI KK from MIUI MM without changing the partition layout, what you did is correct, just directly wipe and flashed it through recovery. But that lefts you on MIUI KK without the Dual Boot capability.
If you want to have the Dual Boot capability back (which means returning to dual partition layout), you have to use the *.bat switch method (the first link in your OP), since the *.bat inside MIUI MM fastboot ROM contained the partition layout reformat step, and the fact that all fastboot ROM have the partition layout table format (gpt_*.bin).

Hi, You should flash with full wipe latest kitkat version, 5.12.17 and it works. I have this version of KK. Now I have backup in TWRP KK and MM and I can switch when I want .

Just a FYI, flashing your recovery form TWRP prevented me from getting back into recovery. Had to load the previous twrp (3.0.2) via fastboot.
Could you please share the steps to Install it?
Do they depend on our current TWRP?

The easiest way is to flash it within TWRP if you have TWRP 2.8.4 or higher already installed. Otherwise use Fastboot Install Method. Check the link above.

this hybrid firmware not work for me while using CM13.
I flashed the official TWRP 3.0.2.0 via fastboot then its okay now.
Some users have reported many problems flashing this TWRP, so, please add the steps depending your current TWRP.
Can we flash it directly if we are using the modified H20 and OOS3 TWRP?Is it necessary to flash "Revert2Lollipop" before flashing this?
Thank you
I'm on OS3.0 and flash this recovery img file directly from my previous TWRP, and it worked as expected.
From OOS3.0 beta and TWRP 3.0.1-0 modified I've flash'd this hybrid recovery and no problem at all.
It works fine.
Thanks for the job.

@WhyOrean - It might be worth including the backup partitions in the Update.bat too so users running Oxygen OS can flash OTA updates (these are checked before being patched).
Code:
fastboot flash abootbak emmc_appsboot.mbn
fastboot flash hypbak hyp.mbn
fastboot flash pmicbak pmic.mbn
fastboot flash rpmbak rpm.mbn
fastboot flash sbl1bak sbl1.mbn

Yep, but fastboot flash rather than recovery flash.
If you're on OOS3 or H2MM and want to move to CM13, fastboot flash the contents of the Oxy2_CM13_Firmware.zip first.

As everyone already knew, MIUI 8 is not only available for China Developer ROM, it's not yet available for Global. I was on Global MIUI 7 Developer, I was very curious about MIUI 8. So, I tried to flash it through TWRP. Before I flash, I backed up all partitions on TWRP.
Fast forward 20 minutes, MIUI 8 flashed properly, but I want to go back to my original Global Developer MIUI 7. So, I tried to restore every partition through TWRP with the backup I did. Every partition restored successfully, except "Firmware". It gives error "extractTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255"
In recovery log, it shows that "tar_extract_file(): failed to restore SELinux context ubject_r:vfat:s0 to file" for a lot of files.
It booted up normally, but it failed to detect my SIM card. Wifi working, just no SIM. Baseband version unknown, can't enter Phone Status, SIM cards & mobile networks greyed out. Phone tells that Can't get valid Device ID (Invalid Device ID: null)
Anyone did experienced this? Any solution?
Use twrp to restore again , this time exclude the firmware partition (restore all other partition except firmware). After the restoration complete , use MiFlashTool to flash back the Miui 7 stable

Hi,
I've been out the custom rom game since Lollipop and feel very much like a N00b again.
I flashed the latest stable PIE miui through TWRP then flashed a few custom roms to test. Got hit with the whole encryption merry go round and managed to somehow stop this by flashing one of these disableencrypt zips I believe. I have no idea if this will happen again and I am scared my internal data will get encrypted again. how do I permanently disable this?
I also have the following error what have i done wrong, do i need to fix this and what effect does it have on my Poco:
ANDROID SYSTEM
Your vendor image does not match the system. Please flash the PKQ1.180729.001 vendor image for your device.
Any guidance would be much appreciated,=.

1- First of all encryption is by default in pie so you have to flash DfE every time you update or install a ROM and also in case of updating vendor or firmware . DfE has to installed after the ROM installation otherwise storage will get encrypted and only option would be left for decryption is format
2- For vendor mismatch flash vendor for here

First question is the title basically, wanna flash miui if i happen to not like PE. Can i flash it with twrp?
Second question, If I flash PE without any custom kernels. And flash miui after that. Will i have my original kernel? Or does flashing custom roms change to a custom kernel?
Sorry a bit new to this. Thanks for your time.
1 - Yes, you can flash miui with twrp, just use rom recovery package.
2 - Any rom zip package comes bundled with the kernel. flashing will install the kernel contained in the package.

Android devices predominantly followed by following partitions!
/system
/boot
/recovery
/vendor
/storage
/persist
/ta (in xperia)
/overlay (optional)
now RECOVERY (beside parition name) refers to a operating system DESIGNED ONLY to change size of these partitions (ADVANCE) and basic need to spread out(FLASH) operating system according to command by package in certain partitions. -- TWRP is one OUTSTANDING Recovery project over the years. back in old days Philztouch recovery was also popular for Xperia models-
the term "rom recovery package" means, READ ONLY MEMORY ( a android operating system File ) Designed for RECOVERY TO READ and spead the data in /system + / boot & /data partitions for your Poco (or any android based) for boot in to android operating system.
MIUI mainly releases TWO filetypes of SAME ROMS , for example miui10.3.6 has
1. RECOVERY ROM (1.6gb) (to be flashed by TWRP
2. FASTBOOT ROM (2.8gb) which can be flashed by FLASHER running on WINDOWS based System (some times iMac too)
3. Android devices uses many types of processor, SNAPDRAGON processors are famouss (poco uses Snapdragon or SD845) hence Two type of Flashers can be USED to FLASH POCO, 1 MI FLASH (RECOMENDED) (supports Two Mods, on fastboot rom, fastboot & EDL) or QUALCOMS QLOADER flasher (ADVANCE and NOT RECOMENDED)
coming back to twrp,
all custom roms are designed keeping in mind that RECOVERY (such as TWRP) will be FLASHING it on ANDROID DEVICE. so the sequence of flashing such roms are like
1. flashing vendor firmware , from a. vendor firmware , download from https://mirror.akhilnarang.me/MIUI/b...r-firmware.zip
b. flashing pixel experience ROM ( you should also try Crdroid and Havoc)
c. flashing google apps from openapps.org (take arm64>android9.0>MICRO package and hit download) 250+mb filesize
d. (optional) optimus drunk kernel (check development forum for post)
e. flashing magisk18.3.zip (if you want your Device to WAKEUP ROOTED)
now answering you question
1. YES YOU CAN TOGGLE BETWEEN MIUI AND CUSTOM ROMS, but don't make it habit! there is always chance for you to BRICK your device. also you will loose all your data if MIUI uses Encryption method which TWRP cannot READ to operate /data partition. then you must RE FORMATE /data partition via twrp in order to make it accesable for custom rom(s)
2.ANY TIME WHEN TWRP FLASH ANY ROM, MIUI OR ANY CUSTOM ROM, THE OLD KERNEL IS OBSOLETE AND NEW ONE IS PLACED thats why you need to flash magisk everytime you clean flash any rom in order to get root access
please do ask if you need any clarification
might be a old thread.
but i installed a custom rom on my moms phone but i thinking going back to stock. the custom rom is old and has scroll problems...
but i see stable miui has no updates. but can i flash official miui rom from twrp over the custom lingeos rom?
or is it better to update her phone to a more recent custom rom.
either way she will lose her data. plus camera has bugs but i never had the time with work and she working to put it back in a mint working state. cause the scrolling being broking is fuking stupid
tought about miui stable. just to flash it true trwp.
or update it to a more recent custom rom.
Custom ROMs are one of the best things about Android. One of the best things about the openness of the Android platform is that if you're unhappy with the stock OS, you can install one of many modified versions of Android (called ROMs) on your device. A new ROM can bring you the latest version of Android before your manufacturer does, or it can replace your manufacturer-modded version of Android with a clean, stock version. But with the introduction of the dynamic partition flashing Custom ROMs are a bit tricky. In this post, I will run you through the steps of flashing Custom ROMs on your Poco X3.
Pre-requisites:
Unlocked Bootloader
Custom Recovery
Note:- Always create a backup of your important files before flashing.
Steps:-
From MIUI to Custom ROM
Encrypted
Copy the Custom ROMs zip to your sdcard or your OTG flash drive.
Boot to the recovery.
Flash the required firmware mentioned for the ROM.
Reboot your recovery.
Flash the Custom ROM.
And then format data [**This will wipe your internal storage**]
Reboot (Flash magisk if you want root after the first boot)
Decrypted
Flash this decrypted vendor
Flash the custom rom
Format data and reboot
From Custom ROMs to Another Custom ROM
Encrypted
**Backup your internal storage, incase something gets wrong**
Remove your lockscreen password
Boot to the recovery
Wipe Data, Cache and Dalvik Cache
Flash Custom ROM
Reboot
** If the device bootloops Format Data **
Decrypted
*If your device is encrypted*
Flash the decrypted vendor
Flash the custom rom
Format data and reboot
*If your device is already decrypted*
Wipe data and cache
Flash rom
Reboot
Notes:-
For encrypted people
Always create a backup of your internal storage.
Format data while upgrading from one android version to another.
Downgrading firmware may also require data format
Moving from Gapps build to non-gapps build or vice versa also requires fata format
For decrypted people
You don't need to flash the decrypted vendor everytime unless you come from miui
The vendor will not work on miui

You saved me. I had properly unlocked bootloader, flashed OrangeFox but then I did the wipes and also mistakely formated data, so I couldn't send files from PC to phone to flash the custom rom.
Guess I could've just used the usb otg at this point, but I reflashed MIUI with a script, and reflashed OrangeFox and now I'm good to go.
I thought current custom recoveries don't check for rollback protection (yet)?
It's probably safe to be flashing stock firmwares via custom recovery if you are sure you know what you're doing. But this guide seem to appeal to new comers. Should we suggest they stick to using Mi Flash tool for flashing stock firmwares as it has rollback protection checks?
Or am I just out of the loop and this is no longer the case with custom recoveries for surya/karna?
Thanks for the guide btw. Greatly appreciated.
I miss manually flashing each partition files via fastboot like when I was on my Nexus devices and my Essential PH-1. I have not seen a guide that recommends or even teaches us to flash partitions manually.

Yes it is safe to flash stock fw via custom recovery. ARB hasn't been implemented on surya yet.
Well manual flashing each partition using fastboot on surya is much more complicated. Dynamic partition work differently. In short one have to boot to fastboot than boot to fastbootd than you can flash rom
Are you sure it's not enabled? After running fastboot getvar anti, I get anti: 2 and I just bought the phone without doing any upgrades. Unless this alone doesn't mean that ARB is enabled?

No only if you get "anti:4" itmeans ARB is enabled, otherwise feel free to downgrade via fastboot.

Seems you're wrong. This XDA article states other way:
"
How to find current rollback index
Reboot to fastboot mode
Enter the following command: fastboot getvar anti
If the output is blank, then anti-rollback has not yet been enabled. If you get a number in the output, then that’s your current rollback index."

Use any fastboot stock ROM and MiFlash tool to restore your phone...or flash any custom recovery and use it to flash any recovery stock ROM to restore your phone.
I have 6 days to wait for unlocking the device. I can't wait to get rid of the Mi UI mess and bloat. I haven't had to do a complicated (for me) phone flash process like this since a Motorola phone in 2014. I have a a few questions:
1- Do I need to add/install adb drivers to my WIN10 PC? I came across win adb drivers for the POCO in my search for Windows PC drivers. Which version of adb is needed for Win10? I currently have abd my laptop, but I can't determine the version.
2- Installing the recovery - I see the steps some have posted with TWRP versions, but I'm not really clear on this. Do I go to the folder with TWRP in it and then use a command prompt from there? TWRP or Orange Fox and what version? The posts are confusing.
3- I'd like to have the easiest rom flash for my first go at this phone. I would appreciate a recommendation for which rom might be the best one to start with. I will be want gapps as part of the process, but could flash afterwards if its better that way. Is Arrow OS or Havoc a good choice?
Sorry for all the questions.
Thanks
If i flash a newer Firmware (.7) over the decrypted vendor (.5), is my phone encrypted again?

if you'll flash 12.0.7 vendor from this thread, then no
Is this the right way?
Flash the CustomRom and after flash format Data?
Not first format Data and than flash Customrom?
My plan after bootloader Wait time is flash the Miui Eu Rom.
What ist the right way?

Flashing ROM and Format data is the usual way....
I now. But the chronologie was another. First Format data, then flash Rom.
Usually in all my old device while flashing roms I have to wipe system data cache then I just flashed the rom, it's my first Xiaomi device I am confused as hell , should i never have to wipe system partition ? , Is flashing firmware necessary everytime ? Are there any risks associated with decrypted vendor ?please guide me I am not noob but these things are completely new to me
Device storage partition schemes have changed and are now dynamic, so previous procedures don't apply anymore. Closely follow your ROM developer instructions in order to avoid bricking your device.
