Hey look on the last page of the twrp 3.0.0.0 thread for this watch a guy posted a twrp backup of system and boot with a stock recovery image also you just have to Factbook flash the recovery it's on the last page or second to last page but I got it from there

EDIT: I figured out how to pull the stock recovery from the newest MWD59 build. I am currently uploading to google drive to share along with the system and boot partitions!

Solved, mods plz delete!!!

January Security Update incremental .zip - Directly from Google's servers

I got the update for the January Security Update today. I grabbed the .zip's location and the link on Google's servers is:
https://android.googleapis.com/pack...51c56752.signed-angler-MMB29P-from-MMB29M.zip
Hope it helps others!
PSA: this is not flashable over custom ROMs, and cannot be used to install the factory OS from nothing. That's what the factory images are for . This .zip is solely to incrementally update from the December security update to the January one.
Is there an easy way to flash this update.zip without the need of a computer?

Unless you have a custom recovery, no. Sorry about that
Updated. Thanks for the link!
I have a rooted, stock ROM and TWRP and with several Xposed Modules, can I flash this?
Also, I don't have the December update, where do I find that?
And lastly, I'm on MDB08L Build, will that work?
For those wanting to use this update and have completely stock system based on MMB29M. Boot into recovery and do an ADB sideload update.zip (rename zip first). Mine updated with no issues.

If you've got all that set up, why not just update using the full factory image (without the wipe)

I assumed I'll lose all my system modifications (i.e. Xposed Modules and their settings) as well as losing root and TWRP and having to reroot again.

This is exactly the file you need if you don't have custom recovery, don't have root, and have not unlocked bootloader. It is the same file that would eventually come to you OTA. You do however need access to adb and a computer. I don't think this is flashable with a custom recovery.
Thanks..
Thanks for this file bro. dont need to wait.
Alright, feeling like a complete noob, here. I'm on systemless root 2.61 with TWRP. I fastboot flashed the stock boot.img and stock recovery, then tried to sideload the OTA zip. I got a "system contains unexpected contents" error, then installation aborted. Now, with systemless root, I had the understanding that flashing the stock system.img would not be necessary. I was not using systemless root before when I flashed the previous OTA zip. Can anyone spot where I might have gone wrong?

No it does not
I got it:
For systemless root, fastboot flash: 1) boot.img; 2) recovery.img; 3) vendor.img; 4) system.img
Boot to recovery and enter sideloade mode. adb sideload [update].zip
Reboot to bootloader. Re-flash TWRP, then in TWRP re-flash kernel (if custom) & superSU.
I used a toolkit to root my 6P. I'm using rooted stock rom. I got an OTA update but it seems I can't update it that way as per all others. So how do I go about installing this on my mobile? Do I need to unroot, flash stock recovery & then flash the new image? Then again I have to root?
fyi: i'm rooted with systemless root and twrp
I tried to take this update per usual as i would if i were unrooted, of course that didn't work totally. i assumed i would just find the update.zip file (i did: /data/data/com.google.android.gms/app.download/update.zip, icywtk) but when i tried to flash that it said the zip was corrupted. i deleted the zip and now it still says my december build is up to date. can't we just flash the update.zip with twrp? i did allow for the system to be modified this time when i booted twrp.

i just tried this again with the same results. it says that the installer is expecting a different build (the one that my settings app shows i'm on) but that i have a build called huawei/mmasomething/ dee_stroyer somethingsomething. (i would post exactly what it says but i've already rebooted into system). I do remember something with "dee_stroyer" when i was rooting but it's not the system...
anyone else have any ideas? i'd like to just update normally and keep my data... and the stock android with root.
EDIT: also, the update won't update my recovery will it? i don't want to have to reflash that. i should be able to update even when i'm away from a computer haha.
Rooted with TWRP. I just tried an ADB sideload and get the same error.

EEa(EU) rom 10.3.3.0 update

EEa(EU) rom 10.3.3.0 update
Received it too yesterday and all is ok.
Does anyone know how to flash that update using TWRP? I have rooted my Stock ROM with TWRP, and the Update is downloaded OTA and then reboots to recovery, but TWRP obviously is unable to install it: First it doesn't ask for the password to decrypt the data partition and shows the crypted content of the partition, making it impossible to see or select the downloaded update. A reboot into recovery decrypts the data partition and shows the downloaded Update (as a ZIP) in the folder /downloaded_rom. I tried to install that ZIP from TWRP manually, but to no avail - all you get is an error message.
Edit: Forget the question. Seems the phone healed itself. The first OTA download was an update 10.3.1 to 10.3.3 with a size of around 500 MB, and that couldn't be installed. When the System Updater saw this didn't succeed, it downloaded the complete 10.3.3 Package (2,2 GB) OTA, and installed that via TWRP with no problems whatsoever. I lost Magisk, which i needed to reinstall, but other than that, everything's fine.
Edit 2: The complete package obviously also overwrites TWRP, which i had to reinstall, too.

You will need to flash Magisk immediately after the ROM to stop MIUI restoring stock recovery.

Unofficial TWRP now available

Was searching in preparation of my K30 arriving, and found an unofficial version of TWRP is now available.
https://www.google.com/amp/s/unofficialtwrp.com/unofficial-twrp-3-3-1-xiaomi-redmi-k30/amp/
Note: I've not tried it myself, as I don't have the phone yet.
It's a none working TWRP ripped from a dev who was working on it. don't even test it guys. Devs at .eu made one that actually works.

Thanks for the info @ddaggebi
I used the K30 TWRP from https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/twrp.53906/page-8#post-528914 to fastboot boot to TWRP and dump stock boot, recovery and misc (using e.g. `dd=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot of=/tmp/boot.img`). Then I patched the boot.img with Magisk Manager Canary. :good:
Any idea why that TWRP recovery installer .bat overwrites the misc partition? Temp booting the .img directly with fastboot boot seemed to work fine without their patched misc, so I'm sticking with that for now.
Again, be sure to fastboot boot recovery and then dump your ROM's misc first if you plan on flashing the recovery using that batch script, since you might need to flash it back along with the ROM's recovery for OTAs to succeed.
I can understand rooting here but is twrp installed permanently here? I mean to flash any rom do we always need fastboot command to boot twrp or its staying always and working normally??

Yes. But some features are limited for now.
btw I installed eu rom in case stock rom replaces TWRP to stock recovery.

Also here is the latest Magisk Canary (20308) patched stock boot.img to simplify rooting for those just getting started on this device. Simply fastboot flash boot it..

Ok so the question is can we reboot to recovery normally or we need to manually type fastboot command to boot to recovery..
I am still searching for twrp , which can normally appears while rebooting to recovery
LR.Team twrp-3.4.0-0209 will be installed by default when you install Eu rom.
I can reboot into recovery as normal (by pressing "vol up" & "power" button). To install root, I can simply go to "Advanced" -> "Install Root" or by using boot.img method. One thing which I can't do is deleting (or changing file name) to system file to remove some of the unwanted app.
It works very well

Is there any latest stock boot img for Mi A3?

I accidently upgraded my phone to Android 10 11.0.14 ( prehaps ). I want to install TWRP on this phone, and I attempted to install it without flashing the boot img, and it caused to entirely be bricked and stuck on fastboot, and I did also attempt to change the slot, but ****** off. I tried using MiFlash, ****** off, reinstall, ****** off. I still kept my OnePlus rom and I succeed to install and normally use it, and it still remained TWRP. I installed the stock rom for it cuz Oxygen is so unstable, and I did, but the TWRP is lost. I reinstalled it, but it bricked, again. I entered TWRP, wipe all data, and enter again, but lost TWRP. I figured that I did miss flashing boot img, thanks to a thread I accidently read. And I also figured how stupid I was when I just did upgraded my phone to the latest version, and there is no boot img compatible to that version, and I did searched entire internet for it. I didnt try to flash the boot img of the early version cuz I am afraid it bricked again cuz of the compatibility. So when will I expect for a boot img file to flash TWRP and when can I download and use it? Or technically I dont need that boot img file and just simply change the slot and flash it? Ty.
try this boot img, its compatible with android 10 also twrp is already installed in the boot img.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/mi...HR_Q-v2.2-laurel_sprout-official.img/download (its for official android 10 rom)
then flash whatever rom you like then flash this zip, it will install shrp recover

Hang on. What do you mean by TWRP is already installed ? Does it mean that boot img file already contained TWRP or I do need to install it as a boot img to get the phone boot and work normally?
And btw, is installing SHRP Recovery an opinion or a must?

the boot img already contain twrp, and the boot img should be able to boot your rom (stock android 10) and no shrp is not a must you can use any recovery you like, but if you want to keep your recovery after installing a rom you have to install the recovery installer zip

Twrp... not working on android 10?

I tried the latest twrp from the official website, but to no avail
Anyway, i installed PE+ with their official recovery, but now i can't flash magisk or any module
I'm wondering if it can be done (twrp or orange fox) without having to lose all my rom data, as i am alredy settled with my current ROM
Ps: when i tried i flashed at partition be, i have no clue as to why i didn't want to boot to recovery even tho the installer said it actually said it was flashed
Thanks in advance

Yes you can flash any recovery without loosing any of your data
Check the current partition and flash recovery in that partition

the latest official TWRP was released in June 2020. TWRP is not working for me as well after Mi update of Sept 2020.
Now if I install TWRP and boot into system via recovery, it takes me back to Fastboot. I was lucky to have a copy of Stock boot img. @Hugask
