o i unlocked my bootloader using unofficial method installed twrp from adb and every rom i flash be it a custom rom or the original rom it gets stuck on boot animation forever (i left it over the night to conform ).i tried resurection remix , lineage os and the miui 8 stock rom.
please help!!!!!!!!!!!!
Use official method to unlock, unofficial method is risky and no longer supported. Till then flash stock MIUI Global Stable using EDL mode.

It's on bootloop cause the bootloader is locked again.
Check if the bootloader is locked again. If it doesn't follow-
First: use ZCX recovery which disables the dm-verify which helps not to lock bootloader with roms/miui roms.
Second: after flashing rom, flash lazy flasher so that the rom can boot up, search and you will get that zip.
Third: don't flash firmware without checking if it locks the bootloader again.
Now flash any rom with that recovery and after flashing, flash lazy flasher and it should boot fine. Check the tutorials to learn more about these mods.
Though it would be better if you unlock officially.

Ok , So I finally was able to unlock my bootloader after getting that 50 % error, I thought that I'd flash miui 8 , so I downloaded the rom from official mi website and flashed it with twrp but for some reason I got stuck in a bootloop. I dont want to download fastboot rom as it takes a lot of time due to slow internet, so could anyone tell me how can i successfully flash a rom from twrp. I've got bot miui 8 chinese developer rom and global beta rom downloaded.
You need patched boot for normal twrp or u must use cofface twrp to flash the rom.
You cant flash stock rom via twrp without patched boot.img
And if you are flashing marshmallow rom u must know that the bootloader will lock itself again.
Why not just flash the miui.eu version? No boot image mess..

Edit : The recovery worked. Thanx.
where can I find a patched boot.img for latest chinese developer rom.Thanx for the fast reply.
Just use cofface recovery for stock roms:

I think that the Alca recovery do the same, but I haven't test it yet

lease i need to know now i have unlocked bootloader and twrp and i am ready now for custom roms
i want to use cm roms and miui roms without going back to pc to flash stock miui again then unlock bootloader again blalalala
how to use miui UN official ROMS rom twrp directly withou going back to pc to flash stock miui ?
and from where we can find these roms ?
how can we swich from cm13 or cm14 roms directly from twrp to any MIUI rom (not stock) ( like i was doing in my old lenovo or LG ) all from TWRP NOOOOO PCCCC?????
thanks in advance
You can flash latest miui EU weekly to go back to miui (it doesnt lock the BL), you can flash almost anything (Lineage OS, RR,...) and flash eu weekly to go back to miui. BL will get locked upgrading/downgrading android LP to MM or MM to LP will lock BL and some roms also lock BL (like multirom stable 8.1.0.0, some custom roms,firmwares)
I always ended with brick if flashed official miui tbrough twrp and have tried cofface twrp,zcx,..

OK ... what you say is i can use twrp to flash CM 13 OR CM 14 Or AOSP ROMS or MIUI EU ROMS all from twrp any time and every thing will be OK as long as i will not flash OFFICIAL MIUI
and here i will not need any PC even when i am on CM 14 OR CM 13 then flashing any MIUI EU from TWRP ZCX
AND what about if i restored my STOCK OFFICIAL TWRP BACKUP ??? will it be OK ??
Thanks in advance
Yeah you can flash CM13,CM14,Lineage OS...
But some custom roms also locks BL(it would say so usually)
Also multirom 8.1.0.0 locked BL and official ROMs...
I do that: Use ZCX twrp, clean flash always (have all partitions backed on sd and all files for flashing on sd)
Wipe all except sd, flash CM13/14 or any other rom that doesnt relocks BL. Then if I want to go back to MiUi, just wipe all again and flash EU ROM (it does not lock).
So that way you can switch ROMs without PC...
If it flashes and turn off after flashing it means BL got locked, you must go in fastboot and unlock it with MiUnlock.
I think restoring official will also relock BL...
Just be sure to have backup of all 44partitions (EFS,Modem,radio..) in case you lose radios or imei...

How to do that i did full backup from zcx from my first stock miui once i flashed it ... is this what you mean or zcx can't make this special backup?
and can i make this backup from any rom that is working with me or i should return to stock again ?
AND If it flashes and turn off after flashing it means BL got locked, you must go in fastboot and unlock it with MiUnlock.
can i do this once i put the phone in fastboot and use miunlock and open twrp then flash another rom - or i have to first go back to stock miui then RE unlock bbotloader then flash new recovery ...... bla bla bla
Yeah I use zcx to backup all partitions also Alka can do this too. So if you did full backup with Zcx you are good to go
If it blinks and turns off, BL got locked. You must only go in fastboot, connect with PC, log in to MiUnlock, click unlock and reboot. No need to flash stock miui with MiFlash...
When i try to restore the backup, on rebooting, it shows wrong password. Same problem with both CM and MIUI roms.
Try without restoring data
Error "Couldn't check device security info miui.eu ..... how can i get over that
and i can't enter twrp again
You must be connected to internet while loging in on initial boot up...sometimes server is offline, try multiple times, reboot... Or try flashing miui eu weekly 6.11.3 first
How are you booting to twrp?
You must turn off device
,hold power and volume up, when mi logo appears, release power and keep holding volume up until you see twrp.

i think my bootloader is locked and i did restor flash from the beginning edl mode and i am booting now from stock again ... nice to do that and thank you for your concern
i will unlock again and flash twrp again
the question is why is that happened i was in rr 6 then i wipped and flash miui.eu ( i flashed the same version before and it worked fine )
any way thanks a lot you are my teacher here >>>>
edit its OK now i am on stock MIUI 8 .
So what now
What should I do to flash cm 13 and cm 14 Roms and flash miui.eu Roms without mistakes I will go and try again
my problem was i forgot to reset factory settings after each change from cm to miui
but i think there is another solution instead of wipping all internal data every time i change cm to miui and miui to cm romsss
Hi! I have a weird issue. Any new roms like 7.1.2, 8.0etc are just not booting up in my redmi note 3. I always get stuck at the boot logo. The phone vibrates and hints as if it is going to boot up boot its not. The process continues and the phone doesn't boot up. It works all fine with the older roms. But with newer version the roms dont boot up. I tried several roms like Nitrogen,RR,Linege OS etc. But newer versions of both Nougat and Oreo roms don't boot up. I don't have any clue of what to do now. I have zcx twrp installed and have officially unlocked the bootloder. Please if anyone have any insight regarding the issue it will be helpful.
Thank You.
Check whether the bootloader is still unlocked by commands. Twrp in this case, is useless so flash MIUI official rom & again unlock officially.
Make sure you wipe everything in Twrp if the command says bootloader is unlocked.
Try flashing LazyFlasher after the ROM. Also, are you flashing the recommended firmwares before flashing the ROM?
Update modem (firmware). Either by: flashing latest MIUI Beta fastboot rom or from here
hi guys i was on havoc pie with orange fox twrp and 8.7.3 firmware and i wish to try msm extended pie (which i got from a source i dont want to mention as i dont want to blame anyone) with a new firmware (i dont remember version) it also contained emmc_appsboot.mbn and i flashed it and got my boot loader locked (i have officially unlocked last year) and in hurry to fix it (my phone is imp to me) i flashed fastboot rom (and unofficially unlocked it) now i can only use fastboot rom which is LP or cm13 no other roms are booting. tried all twrp tried lazy flasher but nothing works PLS if anyone can help PLS reply.
Actually all roms are getting installed phone boots boot animation get started later it get dim to like to start OS (phone vibrates as sign of booting but again boot animation gets brighter and again it goes on happening like bootloop)
Go to edl flash latest miui 9 fastboot from there clean everything, install twrp with locked bootloader then flash lazyflasher if you want to stay in miui or flash anything else you want.

Make sure u come from latest miui 10 stable
If u unlocked boot loader unofficially and zcx
then first replace ur zcx twrp with latest twrp. Then u can flash custom roms and gapps.
U dont need any firmware Before flashing custom roms.
Just format data
Wipe data reset
Flash rom and gapps.
Reboot.
If u try to flash those 50mb size miui firmware zip using twrp then u will brick ur phone coz u r unofficially unlocked. So get rid of that firmware fever from ur head. U dont need any.
In case if u feel like going again back to miui global rom then put ur phone in EDL mode and flash kate fastboot global rom using computer and miflashtool.

Better use official TWRP, Orangefox or Redwolf recovery
No need to flash firmware as you're already on MIUI 10.2
Just wipe system, data, also format data & proceed to flash the rom
Thanks for the help guys

Can you help me? This is for Kenzo
I had softbricked? my phone. Went through the process of installing the MIUI 10 fastboot rom but it required activation which I can't do as I forgot my login details (i bought this phone years ago)
Yesterday I managed to unlock unofficially using this method
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66379587&postcount=3
Didn't install 7.1.8, just 7.2.5, followed the instructions, was able to enable oem-unlock and usb debugging, confirmed bootloader was unlocked
Flashed the latest twrp, tried zwcx, lastly tried the latest orangefox
Tried flashing AOSPextended nougat and viper os nougat with various recoveries but they were stuck at the logo for the corresponding roms
I am not sure...do I have to do anything with that boot.img patcher? And if so, when would I flash it?
Went through the same steps again. Same result. All roms get stuck on the custom boot animation
edit:nevermind, flashed that unlocked bootloader rn3_unlockonly in miflash and it booted up

There is an updated guide to unlock unofficially on MIUI 9 with new bootloader.
The problem was you unlocked on older version of MIUI.
To recover password try to visit mi cloud & check if you can do something or forget & use custom roms as there's nothing good about MIUI.
