Hi all,
I have redmi note 4x (snapdragon).
I tried rooting (after unlocked) using this tool:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-4/how-to/twrp-easy-root-redmi-note-4-1-click-t3606463
For some reason it didn't work (stuck in fastboot screen)
So I did, in fast boot:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot recovery.img (I have no idea why I did that)
Then I loaded twrp by vol+ and power button
When in twrp I flashed supersu.
Since then the phone only boots to twrp. I read I need to flash lazyflasher-no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip, and so I did, and it didn't help.
What should I do?
If I need to flash a new ROM, where can I find the official ROM (international version) that came with the phone (note 4x not 4)?
Thanks for your help
No one has any ideas?

@Sp_Ark Thanks
Will using MIUI ROM Flashing Tool in fastboot re-lock my bootloader?
Will it revert back to stock recovery?
Is it possible to flash the zip from that link using twrp?

I use red wolf twrp and with that recovery you can flash stock zips. I'm not sure if you can do it with the official twrp that u have. Also with the red wolf there is an option in the settings that keeps custom recovery after flashing official miui. Actually I think you can flash official rom zip with official twrp as well the option in talking about is for flashing OTA updates. With red wolf you can also root either with flashing the included super super zip or with the included magisk. I don't know if flashing with miui tool will relock, I believe not but not sure.

OK. I solved it.
I put all the necessary files in the external SD.
I did a complete wipe (system, cache etc.)
I flashed the complete firmware from the link @Sp_Ark gave me (thanks)
I flashed red wolf twrp (just in case the flashing of the complete firmware was reverting me back to stock recovery)
I flashed supersu
I flashed lazyflasher
Reboot to recovery (just to make sure)
Rebooted to system, all is well.
I rebooted to recovery to set the special actions: "Support MIUI Incremental OTA" and "Include System in OTA Survival".
Rebooted to system and all is perfect (rooted)
I couldn't find the included supersu and magisk in the red wolf twrp though, so I downloaded supersu myself.

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?

Did you flash official TWRP?

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.
http://linuxwelt.blogspot.de/2016/04/twrp-recovery-flashen-xiaomi-anleitung.html
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
Hi guys does any one have working method on how to flash twrp recovery on rdmi note 3 sd well im currently on miui 8 6.11.3 beta developer rom.. Some body help me
This is assuming you have an unlocked bootloader already.
http://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-install-twrp/
Yes i already unlocked the bootloader nd even flashed twrp once but it asked me for a password to decrypt nd i couldnt flash gapps so i flashed back to dev rom using mi flash tool
I haven't had that issue but try using zcx twrp

You dont need to flash back miui.. just format your internal storage using adb command "fastboot format userdata" thats it. Then flash twrp again using adb. Now boot into twrp &clean flash any custom rom you want. Everything will be ok..
Although you get back to miui. So this video will help you a lot to install twrp. Just follow his fastboot method & use alka recovery instead of official recovery

so i was on epic miui 7.1.20 and i was triying to flash latest epic miui 7.2.16 (( https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/epic-rom-miui-8-7-1-12-beta-redmi-note-t3536480 )) using jamflux twrp which is the one they use on that thread. and was getting error 7 every time i tried flashing epic rom. so i flashed AOSIP that i had on my sd card and that installed just fine and booted no problem.
i tried to flash epic rom again but using this recovery (( https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/development/recovery-twrp-3-0-2-0-t3446909 )) and still getting error 7. so i downloaded latest nitrogenOS and twrp says it installed succesfull but when i hit reboot system it reboots stragiht into recovery. doesnt even show the MI logo on startup. so now the phone is just sitting in recovery no matter how many times i wipe and re install roms. when i reboot into system, it wont boot, even when i select power off it goes straight to recovery.
there has to be a solution and i dont thing my phone is bricked since i can access twrp.
any help ? thanks.

Try flashing zcx TWRP using fastboot
flash zxc twrp usinbg the option of flashing image files within your current twrp and
flash zxc twrp using existing twrp and reboot to new twrp and then wipe data,cacahe,system and dalvik cache and see to it that system is mounted to have effects.
flash new epic rom and should resolve your problem.
regards
Dharmesh
Zcx is best for rn3

Why do you need to go back to Lollipop? Even in Oreo nowadays many banking/financial apps etc. don't work anymore.
Hey guys.
I'm using a 32/3GB kenzo with an unlocked bootloader running official rr mm.
I formatted the phone, flashed CM14 firmware, flashed the official RR nougat and GAPPS, then rebooted to system.
At this point, it started bootlooping, booting to the MI splashscreen, staying there for about half the time it usually does, before rebooting and repeating the process.
At this point, I was unable to access recovery, but was able to access fastboot and edl.
Flashing a recovery using the "fastboot flash recovery" command failed, so I assume that the partitions were corrupted.
I had to revert to MIUI by flashing through edl using MI flash, which fixed all the issues.
Can someone tell me what I did wrong?
Or should I follow the newbie guide 2.0 from the forums?
Thanks in advance to anyone who replies.

Which recovery you uaed for flashing rr n. Because you went bootloop and recovery was not able to access that means may be some problems in recovery or either in rom/gapps zip. Make sure you are flashing gapps for NOUGAT only. And use latest stable miui firmware (not cm14 zip one although may be both are same)
Try this
1. Flash zcx recovery (I recommend this, never disappointed)
2. Flash latest miui stable firmware
3. Flash rom zip
4. Flash gapps n
Boot to system
5. Then flash kernel or anything.

Thanks for the reply, I'll try it soon. Can you tell me how to get the miui stable firmware?
Should I fastboot flash latest MIUI stable before flashing the ROM or is there a MIUI firmware zip file to flash?

There is flashable zip file which is extracted from miui rom only. So both way will be good as flash latest stable miui rom and then twrp > rom zip > gapps. Or twr0 > firmware zip (search in any custom rom thread you will get one) > custom rom zip > gapps.
Only benefit of flashing firmware zip is less time consuming and less file size (around 50mb) compare to full miui rom.

unlock your bootloader again it will run without problem..
I am on Global stable miui 8.2.4 but for some reasons i don't like it and i wanna downgrade to 8.1.15 . I have Twrp installed and rooted . Can i flash recovery 8.1.15 rom using twrp ?
Or i need to flash a fastboot rom using twrp ?
somebody?
I have flashed stock 8.2.4.0 from 8.2.2.0 with flashfire, although I have twrp too. No problems just put the zip in right folder.
Yes you can. I have flashed both dev and stable. @jazzh mentions something about folders. TWRP doesn't really care about that.
Be warned though that flashing the official zip also replaces the recovery and there is a bug with 8.1.15 where you cannot flash TWRP back afterwards.
If you go back to 8.1.15 and want to use TWRP for flashing a custom rom simply use
fastboot boot [recovery name].img
to soft load TWRP and do all your work from there up.
Yes, that's a good advice.
I soft boot twrp whenever performing backup or updating magisk.
I just mentioned folders because flashfire is started from os and it will look into the ota folder and if it finds the zip it will offer rebooting to perform the update.
