After I have installed twrp 3.0.0 on my Xiaomi mi5, I cannot install OTA updates. My current version is MIUI 7.3.5 global stable. Yesterday my updater showed a new update version 7.3.10. After I install the updates, it boots into TWRP. I tried manually updating the rom through twrp but it shows "updater process ended with ERROR: 7" I also tried unzipping the update package and look for assert in updater script, but couldn't find any assert over there. Can someone please help me on how to update the rom to latest version without losing my apps and data.

So, I have CM 11 (build cm_m7-userdebug4.4.2 KOT49H-InstallerXNPQ02R release-keys) and apparently there's an update for the HTC One. However, when I attempt to update it, in TWRP it gives me this error:
E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/cache/cm-m7-d54c74fd9-to-05b91ffc55-signed.zip'
Error flashing zip '/cache/cm-m7-d54c74fd9-to-05b91ffc55-signed.zip'
I've tried this with the latest TWRP and the latest CWM recovery and had no luck with either. CWM Recovery gives me a similair error, though I can't type it all the way out because it flashes the error and goes away. Only caught a few key words.
Anyone have any ideas?
Just wanted to post my experience with the recent ota.
Yesterday I received Ota notification for 8.1.2.0 on Global stable mi5
The setup of my mi5 was global stable 8.0.5.0 with systemless supersu n suhide + official twrp
It failed to install couple of times. I tried to open to open the Ota zip, but it was encrypted.
Offical twrp couldn't flash it.
So googled for twrp with miui Ota support.
I found zcx twrp for mi5. It has the feature that supports reboot from updater app to flash Ota.
It failed again but now I can see the failure log in twrp. It was boot size mismatch.
Aah! Xiaomi now checking boot also while flashing Ota.
Left the whole Ota business and downloaded the full ROM and checked it's update script, no checks there! Cool.
Flashed it in twrp, peace of mind.
Whole thing done in 10 mins.
Rooted back again.
Suggestion: don't use incremental Ota unless you have nothing touched in the phone. Better go for full ROM.
But not everybody can afford to download full ROM.
Does anybody know how to decrypt Ota zip? Then atleast I can modify the update script to make it work
When I tried to install the newest OTA update (NPNS26.118-22-2-18) with TWRP as recovery, it failed to update. firmware.center doesn't seem to have this update on file either. I ended up flashing the stock rom again and letting it update before rooting again. Is there any way to install OTA updates with TWRP WITHOUT losing all of your data?
I have the same problem (and unfortunately I do not know the answer)
OTA will not install with TWRP present. Theoretically it should be enough to flash stock recovery and bootloader only (without loosing data) but it is just an unverified speculation
As the title states, will I receive OTA updates for my Redmi 5 after I install TWRP and flash Magisk?

I installed TWRP and Magisk, and I received OTA update, but with custom recovery, the phone can't install it, (it just reboots to TWRP when you press update).
I've read that you can install updates via TWRP but I am not sure from where to download the updates as currently, the official Xiaomi page is down, I presume because of the MIUI 10 update...
You can re-install the stock recovery and maybe unroot the phone and then try again, at least that's what i've read on other forums, but didn't test it myself yet.

Yes, although we still receive OTA update package from MIUI host, we can't update OTA with TWRP recovery for rosy at present. TWRP hasn't supported ota incremental update zips yet. We need some one can build RedWolf Recovery for rosy to have OTA incremental update supported
Yes u will receive update but u have to flash it via TWRP
Hi.
I have a Mate10 pro currently running C432.156 which I installed via HWOTA. Its also bootloader unlocked and rooted. I had a OTA update pop up for 157 so flashed stock recovery as I was running TWRP. When I set the update running it rebooted to recovery and the update failed on 5%.
Is this because I am unlocked/rooted or due to something else? Im thinking this as I also have a Huawei T3 10 tablet and I have the same issue on that with OTA's.
Thanks for any help

It depends on what the OTA checks. Usually it will check integrity of /system, /vendor, /product and /cust, sometimes it will check more (like ramdisk and kernel).
If any of those partitions are modified or if you have rooted/custom kernel it will fail to install.
You can restore stock ramdisk and see if that lets it install. (use Magisk Uninstaller if Magisk is what you use)
What you can do is see if you can go to System Update then menu and "Download latest full package". This would install the full version instead and won't fail due to integrity checks. What I'm not sure of though is if that option is available in System Update on B156.
If that should fail you could always update using TWRP+HuRUpdater or HWOTA again.
