As soon as i flash twrp it breaks my phone from booting with official and un official bootloader unlock. I feel like i am missing something very simple I'm running miui. Thanks.
Solved: boot.img not patched, fixed by installing zcx recovery.

I have official unlocked bootloader, with TWRP that patches boot.img automatically, and rooted Global Beta ROM on SD version. I successfully flashed full ROM zip without any problem, by just flashing in TWRP without any modifications or any other boot.img.
But I never flashed OTA before. I'm a little paranoid about this, I don't wanna brick my phone again. By my given condition, I should be able to flash OTA zips without any modifications, and keeping my TWRP and unlocked bootloader, right?

No I didn't. I flashed the modified one that I do not have to flash boot.img when flashing miui rom

You don't need boot.img if you use official TWRP.

Flash TWRP (just check the Screenshots) and after that you can flash OTA without problems (I did it 2 times). Have no problems.
But first take the new TWRP and make a backup with EFS on a USB Stick or sd card. If something go wrong you can restore your RN3P.
Official twrp?
Lol yea u mite be able to flash ota with official twrp but won't it lock the bootloader and boot.img..
But there mite be a way to make it work .
Use the original boot.img of the current ROM and flash then flash the otathat(so there won't be error 7) will fix the issue .and the twrp will auto patch the boot.img after update
I have snapdragon device( kenzo).. officially unlocked bootloader and installed cofface twrp.. currently on cm13.. want to revert back to global stable miui 8 , which is latest release... how to do that?? plz help..
1) flash akla twrp from ur present twrp
2) flash miui 8 global stable rom (1.19 gb)
3) reboot to fastboot mode
4) connect ur phone to pc and unlock the bootloader from mi unlock
5) reboot
Congrats, now you're in miui 8
There is no need to flash Alka twrp, cofface will be sufficient.
Also, no need to unlock the bootloader again if its already unlocked.
Just flash the correct version from here http://en.miui.com/a-234.html through cofface twrp.
Also, dont forget to nand back up your current ROM.
Flashing the mi recovery rom through alka twrp relocks the bootloader, and that's why the device can't boot into miui after flashing.
Unlocking the bootloader solves this problem.
Both the methods are legit.
Up to you which one you'll choose.
I am not sure if simply unlocking the bootloader again solves the problem. I tried that and Miui would still enter the boot loop even after unlocking.
Hi! I have officially unlocked my bootloader.
Can I just follow this steps(no more no less) to go back to Stock MIUI?

i'm afraid because I read that it may cause a bootloop to Mi logo only
Hey guys,
I'm currently on OxygenOS 3, and wanted to flash cm14 by Ashwin. I used flashify, rashr to flash bluspark v41 and other oos3 compatible recoveries but the phone just wouldn't boot in the recovery, the OnePlus splash screen shows up for a second and phone boots back into the system.
Now, what I can do:- I can flash stock mm recovery and flash oos 2 but then I would lose the new bootloader and hence won't be able to boot into CM14, hence failing the actual purpose. Please help, I'm getting very frustrated.
Thanks.
Go to fastboot mode and flash bluespark recovery... After doing that boot into it directly
Before doing the above check for ur bootloader information oem unlock
Hello guys,

Tried everything.. Please help

Try flashing this with twrp first before flashing anything, its gonna disable the dm-verity, also if you're using cm I think flashing the latest SuperSU will brick your phone, but if miui then its probably because of the dm-verity, just flash this first and see if it works

Hello all
I have been using CM13 so far on my Redmi Note 3 (Snapdragon). I would like to flash official Miui 8 recovery ROM. I have "twrp cofface" recovery. However, whenever I try to flash the .zip via my twrp recovery, it re-locks the bootloader and replaces my twrp with stock recovery and effectively the phone goes into boot loop.
I have unlocked my bootloader officially. Could anyone tell me how do I flash Miui ROM from TWRP recovery? Do I need another variant of the TWRP? I dont want to flash Miui ROM via fastboot as it would involve installing mi flashing tool. Is it possible to flash Miui via twrp without re-locking bootloader and also keeping the custom recovery?
Thanks.
I just found out I need to flash alka twrp. I did so and now I can flash Miui 8 without any problems. Please close this thread. Thanks.
