So I planned to install a custom kernel that is GUYVER kernel. So will zcx twrp be able to flash the custom kernel on miui rom. Please also let me know if this kernel is for stable or developer rom?.?!

Yes , zcx can flash anything you want. Guyver kernel for miui marshmallow (both stable and dev.). But why you want to flash Guyver kernel. There are many stable kernel available.

Hello,
Can somebody explain me how to upgrade to, everytime i try my phone bricks and im not able to boot it back.
This is what i do:
Xperia z2 d6503 eXistenZ 4.7 Marshmallow
i download twrp-3.0.2-0-sirius.img from https://dl.twrp.me/sirius/
i reboot on recovery to install the .img and it only shows (Kernel) to select after flash/reboot /breaks.
So what i do is recover using
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img ( this is twrp 2.8.7.0)
fastboot reboot
and restore using a backup.
Any ideas?

/boot and /recovery are two DIFFERENT partition. So what you did is just flashing the right thing ( TWRP .img ) into the wrong partition.
I am wondering if you know how to play with those fastboot command, why dont you just simply flash the TWRP 302-0 using the fastboot method (?) using the following command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-sirius.img

i know boot and recovery are 2 dferrent things
i tried
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-sirius.img
But after restarting my android flash on red and doesnt boot anymore.
i should read first next time:
Download the latest image file (.img) from the download link above. Place it in the root of your /sdcard folder and rename it to twrp.img. Run the following commands via adb shell or a terminal emulator app:
su
dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/FOTAKernel

I did that, still shows 2.8.7.0 installed.....
Well, eXZ 5.1 comes with TWRP installed, so you may consider upgrading to it.
1. Flash a custom kernel out there with TWRP installed using flashtool by androxyde.
2. Flash base rom and update zip.
3. Flash addon ( if any ).
4. Reboot into system.
5. Done.

Hello, I'm kind of new at this (this is my first post) so be gentle
So, the last few days I've been trying to install a new rom on my phone (Redmi Note 4X) and the problems started with the model. I only seem to find Redmi Note 4 roms, and as I've come to find, mine is supposed to be the mido one (correct me if I'm wrong though). I have unlocked the bootloader, I have installed and enabled the fastboot on my phone, so the next step was to install the latest TWRP.
There came more problems; I tried doing this through the app and it just wouln't flash it. So I found a guide on how to root my phone and install a new recovery through adb and I followed it. It didn't work. I couldn't find the right twrp version for my phone. When I finally did realise my phone needed mido, I found the latest from the TWRP website. It wouldn't load through adb again. I found a thread about a fixed mido version, which finally worked for me. But my brother who was helping me, and isn't as much of a noob as I am (he has flashed rom and recoveries many times on his Nexus 5X), decided that I necessarily need the latest twrp if I'm going to flash a new rom, so he flashed the new twrp through the old one, and soft bricked my phone (I think). So I'm searching for a guide to unbrick it. (Which I can't seem to find to work at least).
To conclude;
I have unlocked my bootloader
I have access to the fastboot
I tried to flash a recovery
I failed many times, but I managed it
I flashed the latest twrp and bricked my phone
I don't have access to the recovery
My phone is still on a bootloop
I am not sure about which phone model I have
Help!
Thanks in advance.
1. Just check your phone model on its box. If its Snapdragon version (Mido), then just install it via fastboot. (code: fastboot flash recovery twrp-midoxx.img). If you are success, then try to reboot to recovery (fastboot boot twrpmido-xx.img). After booted, then you just manage to rom.zip you want to install. If you don't have it, then download it before from your PC and push it to your phone. Or just enable Mtp checklis from TWRP n copy that file to your internal phone/sdcard. Wipe all/factory reset except internal storage. Then you dan install rom.zip normally. N reboot. (Note: if you are on MIUI and wanted to always stay on it, just flash the file called lazyflasher.zip. n' wipe cache n art cache only then reboot). Flashing custom recovery on stock MIUI Will manage the device Going to bootloop)
2. If you have mediatek version (nikel), searching the fastboot Rom from miui website and flash it normally via fastboot. (SP Flash tool)
Warning: flash the wrong rom file into wrong phone Will make your device brick. So becarefull n knowing what model/code name you have.

Hello and thanks for the reply. I have the snapdragon version, but all I'm asking is how am I supposed to flash the lazyflasher without accessing the recovery? Through adb?

Firstly, enter fastboot mode on your device. Connecting to pc and flashing the twrp for mido. "fastboot flash recovery twrp-mido.img". Then boot to it using " fastboot boot twrp-mido.img". Then you will enter the recovery (twrp) in a second. Copy the lazyflasher into your phone (enable mtp first in Mount option in twrp) that you downloaded from pc. Just flash the lazyflasher.zip and reboot.
And why you don't want to flash lazyflasher when it very easy to flash it using recovery twrp? adb? You mean android debugging? Actually, you cant flash a .zip file into your system partition except through fastboot mode. However, fastboot mode (in cmd) only recognize a .img file. I just try to tell you the easier method to make your device boot up.

As I said above, I can only access the fastboot, and I get errors in the adb when I try to flash the twrp image.

Share your error please.
Try fastboot boot twrp.img
I have a problem that i never make it into recovery again. I am used to adb/fastboot, this is my 5th device and i happily used different custom roms as lineage, havoc, crdroid for about 7 years and thus am familiar with the concepts of a/b, recovery, adb/fastboot and so on.
Now, when i "flash_all" with stock from here (V10.3.17.0.PFQEUXM) on my a3, i suppose both slots a and b are overwritten with stock. interestingly this stock rom only boots in a-slot, not in b-slot.
when i now just "fastboot flash recovery twrp...." with 3.3.1.2 and hit the manual enter to recovery (power + vol up), i just get a "no command" error - no twrp in sight.
i also tried this with flash_all V11.0.2.0.QFQEUXM rom (a10) and fastboot flash recovery twrp 3.3.1-17 Q from mauronofrio - same result.
anyone knows what i did wrong?
basically i didnt enter team win recovery for some good amount of tries which slightly terrifies me at this point. (help)
Should i use the global versions instead of the europe ones? Do i need to use "fastboot flash BOOT twrp.." instead of "fastboot flash recovery twrp.."?
I am also happy for suggestions where i could pose this issue more appropriate.
//update: i am now in stock rom and could root it with flashing a magisked boot.img but still cannot enter twrp recovery (-> "no command").
Ya you entered the wrong command it's
Code:
fastboot flash boot twrp.img
When you boot to twrp make sure to flash stock boot.img of the firmware which you are currently running and then flash twrp installer.zip flash both of these in twrp and do not reboot between flashes
thanks @garylawwd

So to be sure: i have stock 11.0.3.0 europe from here installed and i am in slot a now and i cannot go into twrp because it says "no command".
i go to fastboot now, then
Code:
fastboot flash boot twrp.img
with a recent twrp that can run android 10 from here and then power + vol up without switching slots.

how can i flash a boot.img from twrp? i thought, i can only flash .zips from twrp? Also do i need to take spacial measures to be able to read internal memory in twrp?
//edit: i tried to flash named twrp but it wouldnt boot up into recovery, instead went straight into fastboot. so i flashed boot with stock boot again. no solution in sight.
Just FYI - "no command" is default welcome page of stock recovery. If you see it, you don't have TWRP installed.

Thank you. Still i would expect twrp to open.
Am i using a/b wrong? When i am on slot a and go into fastboot anf fastboot flash boot twrp.img, then i expect twrp to be installed in a, is that correct? Or is it always installed in the inactive slot and thus i had to switch to slot b before i install twrp to have it on a?

No idea with TWRP, never used it on this phone, Magisk is enough for me. But I would follow one of the available guides if you need to have TWRP installed.

I used for example this method with this recovery bc it should work with android 10.

Hey there,
Gone through every other thread in XDA and most other blogs already. I'm pretty used to rooting and modding android devices, still i somehow find rooting this dirty device harder than I expected.
It's been 2 days now and I could really use some 1-1 help for my case. So, my stock is MIUI Global 11.0.8 Stable 11.0.8.0 PCQINXM, I already unlocked the bootloader and flashed the latest PBRP. On attempting to flash Magisk, I don't find any success regardless of error/ no error messages.
1. I extracted my boot.img with
i) adb shell dd if=/dev/block/by-name/boot of=/sdcard/boot.img
ii) from my ROM via xiaomifirmwareupdater.com repo
2. Used recovery.img that came with olivewood's PBRP.
Patched both of them via Magisk Manager with Recovery Mode checked on.
3. Used vbmeta.img that came with stock ROM.
4. Flashed using fastboot flash boot c:\boot.img
fastboot flash recovery c:\recovery.img
fastboot flash vbmeta c:\vbmeta.img
Still can't seem to complete the root successfully.
What am i doing wrong?
P.S.: I found that flashing a recovery patched this way leads to issues, that I'm stuck in fastboot even if I try to boot to system or PBRP recovery. Flashing the original recovery.img from PBRP repo gets back the recovery menu.

1) flash any another rom which doesn't have recovery moved to vendor_boot then you can flash twrp/ofox but i'm not sure about that
2) flash miui through MiFlash and then boot into TWRP and flash it
i personally used the 2nd way

Mi flash gives me an unhandled exception error when I select the firmware folder. I can press the continue button and my device is shown, but not sure if such a good idea to try flashing without resolving prior message??

Use this MiFlash Tool... it always worked flawlessly for me everytime i need to go back to miui
Link : MiFlash Tool 2021.2.26
Also , make sure that you have drivers installed
Try to flash original vendor_boot. Extract it from latest fastboot rom
fastboot flash vendor_boot vendor_boot.img
Then try to boot twrp
fastboot boot twrp.img
If it boots go to advanced and select flash current twrp
