Oneplus 5 - No image to flash on TWRP with broken ROM installed

I tried to install the OOS beta 3 on a TWRP/UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER, Oneplus 5 running OOS 4.5.(Something) [The Nougat Version]. As the ROM did not flash I booted into TWRP to find that all of my files were encrypted. How do i get another rom onto the device to flash that, what rom should i flash, and how do i prevent this in the future?
**ADB sideload on TWRP also wont load

Flashing Update Via OTA or TWRP

Device: Xioami Pocophone F1
Rom: MIUI 10 | 8.11.29 beta
Bootloader: Unlocked
TWRP: Installed
Magisk: Installed
As a superuser I debloted this beta rom (removed system apps that I don't want) now that new update 8.12.7 is up cant seem to flash it neither OTA Or TWRP.
When i try to update with OTA Or TWRP the recovery cant flash it as the system is modified. Again Full clean flashing will bring back the apps that i removed earlier.
Can anyone suggest me a way to update without flashing whole ROM ??
Thanks!

My device is still android 8, want to update to 9

My Redmi 6a is still android 8 (8.1.0 O11019) and the MIUI version is MIUI Global 10.3.6 | Stable. So I found this thread where you can download the update manually but when I tried doing it, my device says
Can't verify Update
Coudn't verify. Looks like the ROM's secure-patch version is lower than the current version

Is there a way that I can update my phone to android 9?
Unlock bootloader, install twrp, then flash the recovery file with twrp. Keep in mind, don't flash the oreo twrp after you've successfully flashed miui pie, if you do you'll hard brick your phone. The pie twrp can be found in 4 p d a or in the telegram group or just google it.
Or just wait until xiaomi releases the fastboot file so you can flash it with a pc.

Hello I installed the update with my bootloader unlocked
My phone was running the MIUI 11.0.8 ANDROID 9..
Now running on MIUI 11.0.1.0 ANDROID 10
I downloaded first the minimal path and I flashed it .
From here
https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/archive/firmware/platina/
After that I download the full ROM (1.9 gb recovery rom)
And i installed both of them using pitchblack twrp recovery, nothing wipe. And works very good! that recovery is the only who support Ota incremental update and encryption features installed + boot normally + root magisc + Viper4android + dolby digital using only stock rom. No custom boot.Img / kernel. That twrp is very useful.
No issues.
After flashing the files, my phone got all the encryption features and the bootloader still unlocked ?
@brheno not working here (It's not allowed to upgrade to unofficial ROM package), is this for the Chinese variant?
finally the fastboot global android 10 rom for platina is here:

[ROOT] Redmi note 9 pro max without TWRP

Pre-Requirements:
Supported for: Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro Max (Phoenixin) Indian variant only. The device should be running on stock ROM to apply the update. though the guide is universal for all Redmi Note 9 Pro Max phones but the links are for Indian variant only. DO NOT use on different ROM,, For other Varients use this guide but with specific ROM for your device variant.
Requires: A PC/Laptop and a USB cable. (use only the cable that came in box)
Charge: Keep your device charged more than 50%.
Steps :
1. Download MIUI V11.0.4.0.QJXINXM – Recovery ROM | OTA ROM (official link from xiaomi website for Indian varienat)
2. Mi Flash Tool – Download and Install it on your PC (required to unlock bootloader, which we will not discuss here)
3. Download ADB and Fastboot Tools on your computer
4. Download Xiaomi USB Drivers and install it on the PC
5. update or install the latest MIUI version on your Redmi Note 9 Pro Max (Phoenixin) successfully. Feel free to ask in the comments below for any queries. Current version at time of post is V11.0.4.0.QJXINXM (link above). Make sure the model of your phone and the installed firmware EXACTLY match what you're downloading. If they don't, it may not work correctly.
6. Install Magisk Manager (.apk) on your phone from the official Magisk repository.
7. Extract boot.img (about 132MB) from the official ROM zip you downloaded and transfer it to the phone. Click "install" in Magisk Manager and point it to boot.img. This should result in a patched magisk_patched.img (about 16MB - padding was removed), transfer this file to your computer. Ideally to the Mi Unlock folder where fastboot.exe is located.
8. Reboot your phone to fastboot recovery mode. Open a command prompt in the folder of the Mi Unlock tool and run
Code:
Code:
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
This flashes the patched Magisk-enabled bootloader to your phone.
9. Reboot the phone and that's it! Verify root status in the Magisk Manager app.

I think you'll still get OTA update but once you update the phone will loose root. So Don't worry about OTA update because you can always download the latest firmware posted on Xiaomi website. Root, install Xposed. Install xposed modules like Gravitybox, MiUi 8 Tweaks, Boot manager and you'll never think again of OTA because so much of customizations and performance improvements you can do on your own with these modules.
PS: Not all OTAs are good. Don't depend much on OTAs because some device manufacturers push OTA to make your device work bad and so you'll buy new phone.
Can any user of Redmi Note 9 Pro Max confirm that you have rooted successfully? please
anyone successfully unlocked redmi note 9 pro max bootloader,currently the official tool is showing to wait 360hours,any other ways to unlock
