I dont want MIUI and useless extra app so i have to install custom rom.
First step is unlock bootlader with mi unlock app okay. But my question is how can i install custom rom ?
TWRP or Clockwork Mod ???
Using TWRP i have to install it first after that i have to install recovery.img and lazyflasher unless my phone gonna brick and its too complicated.
What about Clockwork Mod ?? is it different method ?
I guess i found my path.
1)Installing ROM MANAGER from Play Store of course with rooted device.
2)Install inside of app Clockwork Mod
3)Select custom rom from SD Card and select Gapps,backup,wipe data...
and device gonna reboot do everything automatic is that true and simple ?
My question is using rom manager and install custom rom like that or i have to something extra.
Sorry about my english...
I don't have the phone yet, but i had redmi note 3 before and installing twrp was simply putting it in fastboot mode and using adb command "Flash recovery xxxxx.img" and you are set, considering you have an unlocked bootloader that is. then you follow the installing instructions given by the developer, usually (flash rom.zip followed by gapps.zip). But ofcourse i don't have the phone so take what i said as a refernce only and wait for someone else' reply. as of clockwork recovery, i think twrp is easier to use but there is generally no major diffrence.
Forgot Clockworkmod even existed. Have been using TWRP for ages.
cwm has reached end of support.

use twrp
CWM is dead, twrp is one and only option otherwise there is also Red wolf recovery available.
Steps to install a custom Rom.
Unlock bootloader
Flash TWRP
Flash lazyflasher.zip, reboot
Now DL any Rom.zip and desired Gapps package
Boot into TWRP again
Backup (just incase)
wipe > advanced wipe > wipe everything except internal / SD card
Flash firmware.zip, if you're coming from marshmallow based Miui
Flash Rom.zip followed by Gapps
?? ¿
Profit

Helo friends, I am new to redmi note 3 (sd). I officially unlocked the boot loader. I updated my device to 7.3.2 using miflash. I tried to install TWRP. I flashed the TWRP img and modified img. I tried to enter TWRP by pressing vol+ & power button. BUT no recovery was found . Simply Phone with cable image is showing in display. I followed all the steps carefully. I tried Cofface version and also the latest one.
Somebody please guide me step by step procedure to install TWRP. Somebody have the proper modified image for 7.3.2??? If yes means please give me the link.
In 7.1.8 i was able to get the TWRP. Is there any way to update to miui 7.3.2 by TWRP from 7.1.8
MIUI overwrites your recovery, disable it with the ALKA recovery, which can be found in Santosh's thread.
Here is what I did, to make TWRP workable, and it's very easy, no pc needed.
1. Install flashify
2. Install twrp with flashify but do not reboot yet
3. copy alka twrp to your phone
4. when it's done reboot your phone in flashify (right corner, reboot to recovery)
5. make system r/w (you will lose ota but screw it..., no other way to make twrp permanent on the phone)
6. flash alka update
7. reboot in twrp -> system
8. TWRP will give you a pop-up which tells you that you would like to disable the stock recovery, and just simply allow it to do it.
9. boom, done
Thanks bro!!!!!!!
Now i got both root and recovery on 7.3.2

Simple steps:
1. Go in fastboot mode.
2. Flash official twrp.
3. Boot in recovery.
4. Flash supersu zip.
5. Reboot your phone.
And yeah, allow modification to system partition when asked in recovery. The only downside of the official recovery is that it will be replaced by the stock recovery on boot. No prob, you can flash it again. No need to flash custom cooked boot image or something.
To keep recovery forever:
In system partition, there will be a file next to build.prop, named something like recovery-boot-bak or something, delete it and then flash twrp and this time it will stay.

After flashing for ex. Resurrection Remix (or any other custom rom) the device asks whether it should leave an old recovery or not. Flashing official miui zip doesn't touch the recovery at all.
So it's not necessary to delete any files (regarding my experience).
Sent from Note 3, Xiaomi Redmi Note 3.
currently i am on CM13 official ROM, i want to move back to miui official, which MI ROM i can use, i unlocked bootloader using unofficial method, if possible give me a link which has steps to flash miui rom. TIA.
1. Flash "safe twrp" recovery.
2. Perform nandroid backup of your phone.
3. Download MIUI ROM (recovery or dev, whichever you prefer)
4. Flash this MIUI ROM via safe twrp recovery.
5. Reboot
Important: Only use safe twrp recovery for this purpose.
Im new into rooting so i succesfully unlocked my bootloader and installed the twrp recovery via flash now i have the problem that my phone always boots into the recovery mode no matter what, i have a sonyz2 D6503 andriod 6.0.1 i follow a tutorial on youtube . now i have read a few threads that it is wrong to install twrp with fastboot flash boot C/:whaterver.img i should have done it with fastboot flash recovery C/:whatever.img . Im kinda stuck now and i have no idea what to do moreover im kinda scared to do something, because it can cause more damage that i already have.
im kinda sorry for my horrible english i hope you can understanf this trouble
If you want to proceed back to stock ROM, flash stock FTF using flashtool (download link and instructions can be found inside my signature), with KERNEL and SYSTEM checked, other leave other options intact.
If you want to flash another non-stock ROM, flash an advanced kernel via fastboot toolbox inside the flashtool I mentioned above, then you can flash the ROM using the TWRP inscribed with the advanced kernel.
If you want to proceed to stock ROM but rooted and with other MODs installed, there are two ways to do so:
Easier method:
Flash an advanced kernel then use the pre-installed TWRP to flash the SuperSU.zip or whatever MOD zips.
Complex method:
Restore stock kernel using flashtool mentioned above, then flash the TWRP (recovery) image (you can get one HERE) using a cmd on PC or Laptop with ADB and flastboot drivers installed, typein:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <recovery>.IMG
then you can boot into the TWRP to flash whatever MODs you want.

As always, do more research before entering into tweaking things, noobness can be fatal!
*Urgent* Need clarifications regarding the flashing of TWRP recovery & custom ROMs
I want to flash a custom ROM (Pixel Experience Plus) on my Poco/Pocophone F1.
It would be of great help if I get clarifications regarding the following:
1. After unlocking the bootloader, is it necessary to flash TWRP recovery using 'fastboot flash recovery' cmd command, to flash a custom ROM? Or can TWRP recovery just be booted by using the 'fastboot boot' cmd command & then flash the ROM? (This is because I'd prefer to flash a custom ROM without permanently flashing TWRP recovery, I want TWRP temporarily)
2. In case if it's necessary to flash TWRP using 'fastboot flash recovery' cmd command, then do I have to flash DFE (Disable Force Encryption). Can I skip flashing DFE? (Because I don't want to flash DFE & want TWRP temporarily)
3. I want a clean install of the custom ROM. So, can I wipe Dalvilk/ART cache, Data, System, Cache, Internal Storage, SDCard? i.e. everything except, USBOTG (Because, the custom ROM & firmware ZIP files are stored in it & I'll flash them from USB OTG device).
Would this type of wiping affect the TWRP recovery?
4. After wiping everything except USBOTG, can the custom ROM & firmware ZIP files be transferred into the phone's internal storage by connecting it to the PC, while in TWRP recovery?
5. Is it safe to flash the ZIP files from a USB OTG device?
6. As I already mentioned that I want TWRP temporarily (If it's possible). After flashing the firmware & custom ROM. If the recovery is still a stock Mi recovery. Would it affect the functioning of the custom ROM in any way?
If all of the above can be done, is this one of the proper way to flash/boot TWRP recovery & flash a custom ROM? If not, please guide me accordingly.

i'm no expert and i'm fairly new to flashing if you're kind enough to read it here's my 2cents.
1) I believe it is necessary to flash with that command & have TWRP as your custom recovery , it is packed with powerful tools. so i don't see a problem not wanting it permanently and it saves you the hassle of flashing it again when changing roms , fixes,etc..
2) Yes , you need to flash the DFE so you won't encounter any errors in TWRP later.
3) " Dalvilk/ART cache, Data, System, Cache " this should be okay , no need to flash everything. for best practices do a factory wipe in TWRP and in advanced mode wipe those 4. make sure to create a backup in-case something goes wrong.
4) I haven't tried this yet , but it seems not doable as you need permission in the phone for the default USB connection toggle if it's in data transfer mode , usb debuggin , charging etc. best is boot your phone then do the transfer in file manager.
5) Yes it is safe since OTG is another form of External Data devices such as SD Card , etc.
6) No it wouldn't affect the rom functionality since rom and recovery is two different thing.. but still , to avoide future mishaps stick with TWRP

1. if you always want to depend on PC to trigger your Poco in to recovery then use command "fastboot boot recovery.img", otherwise lets say you are on the move and got pixel update! you can simply download it , and flash it in 15 mins on the go , so mainly its upto you . from security point of view, yes its not good to have twrp flashedi n your /recovery , anyone can boot and do harm! , so its a judgement call for you...
2. again upto you, DFE wont interfere/confilt with either rom or twrp
3. android device have various paritition wiping "/system" & "/data" (user setting and apps & appdata) is ENOUGH and called CLEAN FLASHING in various threads of custom roms. you don't have to wipe internal storage!!! you will lose you data... BUT YES if you get encryption error then you must click "FORMAT DATA" button on twrp in order to make storage usable/accessable to twrp. this FORMAT DATA will format your /data /system and /internalStorage partitions and you will delete all your data! then you can flash custom rom of your choice from scratch
4. you don't get access of TWRP FILEMANAGER via fastboot commands from pc, BUT you can do similar by enableing TWRP SIDELOAD option under settings, this adb sideload is a mode listening for new incoming file to flash! if you side load pixelrom.zip from fastboot command while your twrp has active sideload waiting, fastboot will start sending the file and twrp will wait and as soon as the transmit is completed! the file will automatically be flashed!. ,
however you can put files in usbotg drive or combo drive and using file manager in twrp move files from HERE to THERE!
5. I always do it!, but make sure the connection is not faulty!!! otherwise high chances of incomplete flashing and I lost my redmi3i due to impcomplete flashing of stable rom! (bricked)
6. no it wont affect! infact you can even keep the /recovery partition blank! ( fastboot erase recovery).
for MIUI FLASHING/ROOTING / Disabling force encryption etc , this post is king

I am on HAVOC2.8 and this is how i did it
1. flashed TWRP 3.3.1 unofficial (download it from HERE ) ref Reference - as official twrp has TOUCH driver issues. this one worked with me very well
2. I wiped /data, /system then
3. flashed VENDOR.zip from HERE
4. FLASHED CUSTOM ROM (i use HAVOC2.8)
5. FLASHED DFE HERE - REFERENCE
6. FLASHED GOOGLE APPS ( GAPPS.ORG) ( ARM64>9.0MicroPackage)
7. Flash Optimus Drunk Kernel ( OPTIONAL- havoc uses shadow kernel , i feel OD kernel is better, battery and 4g connectivity)
8. FLASHING MAGISK19.3
9. when i was on havoc2.7, by using MIGRATE, it made flashable zip of my APPS+DATA, stored in internalStorage, and now I will FLASH that file., Mine size goes to 2gb you can get it from HERE
10. WIPE CACHE/DELVIK
11. REBOOT
fire reboot may go in to bootloop and then second reboot may take a while and finally you should see Pixel Setup asking google accounts and info etc
once after you finish setup! don't RESTORE APPS from PLAYSTORE, (download only license apk, in my case I have purchases many apps from playstore and saperate license info is always appear in intial setup! SELECT THOSE ONLY)
ONCE playstore is DONE downloading all your selected (fewer) apps, and MAGISK ROOT is working...... put device on AIRPLANE MODE
FROM DROP DOWN Notification panel, CLICK MIGRATE, and it will prompt you what do you wana restore from your previouce ROM to newly flashed HAVOC ..APPS+SETTINGS+PERMISSION+DATA etc - migrate restoration may take upto 30 mins,
once done, uninstall from system and reboot device!
REMEMBER I DONOT RECOMEND MIGRATE TRICK FOR WHATSAPP, it doesn't work properly and NOTIFICATION ISSUES with BLANK DP observed by me whenever I forcely re-instated whatsapp by migrate!
