Just wanted to post my experience with the recent ota.
Yesterday I received Ota notification for 8.1.2.0 on Global stable mi5
The setup of my mi5 was global stable 8.0.5.0 with systemless supersu n suhide + official twrp
It failed to install couple of times. I tried to open to open the Ota zip, but it was encrypted.
Offical twrp couldn't flash it.
So googled for twrp with miui Ota support.
I found zcx twrp for mi5. It has the feature that supports reboot from updater app to flash Ota.
It failed again but now I can see the failure log in twrp. It was boot size mismatch.
Aah! Xiaomi now checking boot also while flashing Ota.
Left the whole Ota business and downloaded the full ROM and checked it's update script, no checks there! Cool.
Flashed it in twrp, peace of mind.
Whole thing done in 10 mins.
Rooted back again.
Suggestion: don't use incremental Ota unless you have nothing touched in the phone. Better go for full ROM.
But not everybody can afford to download full ROM.
Does anybody know how to decrypt Ota zip? Then atleast I can modify the update script to make it work
Can I flash this file in TWRP (miui-beryllium_20180916-902_V10.0.4.0.OEACNFH_debug_xiaomi.eu_dipper-port.zip) over preinstalled ROM which I bought it with (MIUI Global 9.6.22.0 stable)? What do I have to wipe if I can flash it over? I tried update in settings but it downloaded update and then POCO rebooted straight to TWRP and it did finish the update.
FIRST OF ALL BACK UP FILES, PHOTOS, CONTACTS ETC
REMOVE ANY PASSWORD, LOCKSCREEN FINGERPRINT ETC, PHONE FREE TO USE WITHOUT ANYTHING SO YOU SHOULD BE FINE ON TWRP
battery more than 50%, ideal would be between 70 and 90%
UNLOCK BOOTLOADER
INSTALL TWRP for MI 9T/K20, download here: turn off the phone and go into fastboot, VOL- and power at the same time, decompress the folder and choose the file Flash_TWRP.bat
enter TWRP volume + and power at the same time, as soon as MI appears
do wipe data / factory reset, no need to format data with this TWRP-DO NOT LET THE ROM BOOT TO OFICIAL
choose rom file DOWNLOAD XIAOMI.EU 9.10.24 MI9 T and flash, reboot
for MI9T PRO/K20 PRO TWRP version NOW COMPATIBLE WITH ANDROID 9 AND ANDROID 10:twrp-3.3.1-25-raphael-mauronofrio
[*]ATTENTION:YOU SHOULD FORMAT DATA ON TWRP IF YOU STAY IN BOOTLOOP
DO NOT LET THE ROM BOOT TO OFICIAL
choose rom file DOWNLOAD XIAOMI.EU 9.10.24 MI9 T PRO and flash, restart, 5 minutes and enter

after you install TWRP you can install any custom rom you want, XIAOMI.EU is only used as an example.:good::good::good:
UPDATE VIA OTA FOR MI 9T: click on 3 dots,choose install package and reboot
UPDATE VIA TWRP FOR MI 9T PRO:
Wipe - advanced Wipe - Dalvik cache - cache
Install the update rom
then again Wipe - advanced Wipe - Dalvik cache - cache
reboot

Hi so recently today I was able to successfully flash my stock ROM from Global 11.0.3 to Europe 11.2 (20.3.5).
All works, I have a new and version specific TWRP recovery which solves the decryption issue and such.
Only problem though is I can't seem to update my ROM from the latest Europe 11.2 (20.3.12). I am aware that we cannot install OTA updates like we normally would because we are on a custom recovery. I tried flashing it from the 'choose update package' where it brought me to the TWRP and executed OpenScript to flash, and also tried flashing from TWRP itself. No luck. Bootloop into Redmi Logo and TWRP recovery, so I end up restoring the working Eu version.
An updated tutorial on how to install OTA roms on custom recoveries would really be appreciated, thanks!
Hey OP, could you make a How to install GSI guide?... I'm really interested on doing that.

you have to flash https://build.nethunter.com/android-tools/no-verity-opt-encrypt/no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.1.zip and then update the OTA..dont forget that we normally use a custom rom with TWRP, no point of having twrp with stock rom??? try xiaomi.eu , its way better and you dont have any problems with updates.

reboot to recovery
flash recommended firmware

Hello, you are lost mate...
You use Xiaomi.eu ROM, it's a custom MIUI ROM (Not Official ROM).
You can install updates given by Updater app (System app) without issue on this ROM.
If your phone bootloop just after a ROM update, and not after flashing Magisk, it can be because of a bad encryption from "bad" TWRP (so you need to "Format Data" in new TWRP <-- installed by xiaomi.eu ROM)
-OR-
Did you use my K20 to Mi 9T conversion patch (from xiaomi.eu forum)?
Check for update with Updater app, download and install it. That's simple on xiaomi.eu ROMs.
Trying to install evolution X on my Mi 9T but whenever I flash TWRP the phone won't boot to it, just keeps loading the fastboot screen. Anyone have any ideas where I'm going wrong? I've reflashed stock with miflash for now to get it working.

I have the same problem, but I can't find a solution. Did you find it ?
I found the solution with explication on how to install havoc_OS
after format data you have to reboot to recovery, flash firmware +rom+gapps...without firmware it wont boot on some roms..read well OP instructions, mine are only for xiaomi.eu, you dont need to flash firmware and it will boot fine.
Hi...
Stock rom for mi 8 lite with Android 10 stable is now available.
Follow link to download.
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=1-P7fqitolVTWQU2Qp7DslEedM1i8QGth
Install to system update, select update package in the download directory.
Do not install if your bootloader is unlocked.
In this case use MI FLASH TOOL.....
1.95GB file size
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:
http://bigota.d.mi.com/V11.0.1.0.QD...M_20200310.0000.00_10.0_global_a7ea0cce0f.tgz
Hello,
I'm on Joyeuse device with MIUI V12.0.1.0.QJZEUXM.
Twrp used: TWRP 3.5.0_10-0 for Joyeuse build by dungphp
Rooted with magisk.
I get few weeks ago OTA update for MIUI V12.0.2.0.QJZEUXM, downloaded it to /sdcard/downloaded_rom, when I try to install it through MIUI settings, my device reboot to TWRP, I put my pattern to decrypt datas and I get "Error installing zip file '@/cache/recovery/block.map".
So, how can I install this update ?
Can I go in TWRP, and flash this zip ?
I don't want to reinstall all of my apps if this process broke official rom.
Thanks for your help.
