I'm having trouble with this too, can anyone help?
What miui version you try to flash? Official, xiaomi.eu?
I had trouble too...
Yes, this problem doing me Lineage too. I can´t boot or instal MIUI, whole phone is bricked, no TWRP, locked again...

Hi,
I flashed lineage 14.1 (UNOFFICIAL FERRARI) on Mi4i. But while flashing Gapps an error occurred and could not flash. Now I am trying to flash TWRP again but I am unable. TWRP gets flashed by fastboot mode successfully but when I press volume down and power button again the fastboot screen appears. I have tried 4-5 different versions of twrp image file but still does not work. Without twrp I am even unable to root the phone. Kindly help.
Hello everyone,
I have a redmi note 4X with MTK soc
The bootloader is unlocked.
I want to flash TWRP recovery. I use adb, the "nickel " TWRP, and message in the cmd window was "ok"
but when i reboot, whatever the way (buttons or adb reboot), it still reboot on the stock recovery.
I've tryed many times, even with a "moly" TWRP (with my MI 4S, the "aqua" didn't work and I had to flash the "libra" one and it was all effective)
Tryed to re install adb, etc. Wathever, it's always "ok" in adb but still reboot on the stock recovery.
Can't try with flashtool or that kind of (Mitool Flash atc) because I can't find the right "scatter" files....
Does anyone have a clue? what is blocking?
Thanks for help
You must reboot back to recovery, not to system, after installing TWRP.
1. Install TWRP
2. Reboot to Recovery (not to system) - this means you will see TWRP screen again
3. Now you can reboot to System
This is only done for the first time installing TWRP. Next time, TWRP will always be there.
Hello,
Well please I need new help !!
Now I'm fighting a new issu !! Now that I at last managed to flash TWRP, and enter in this custom recovery, my phone don't boot system anymore !! stay stuck on the MI logo (
Do I need to flash the boot.img ? But why the hell would a recovery flashing would have change the boot partition??
And if so, where please could I find the boot.img for MIUI 10.1 stable?
Hello,
For those who have the same issu.
I've flashed a boot.img file found in unzipped miui rom zip.
- download from xiaomi.eu the right rom
- unzip
- find the boot.img file
- flash it with adb / fastboot
Well, So now I have my phone and datas back, and can boot on a custom recovery; but TWRP don't work well. Doesn"t keep the settings, can't install anything (it doesn't find any file when exploring ) and can't wipe cache (as if it can't read partition). That's all I tryed by now, I despair a little and that's a lot of time for an easy thing (was very easy on other phones)
Well, this time I'm flooded, i' ll take somme time but don't give up trying to root that phone
Start again, and I recommend ZCX-TWRP-3.0.2-X-REDMI_NOTE4-MTK_Nikel-16.11.18.img and Magisk instead of SuperSU

Hi,
I know I must be doing something dumb, but I am unable to install any rom on my MI A3. I unlocked my bootloader and installed TWRP. I tried installing the havoc os rom on my phone and it wouldn't boot after that (kept going straight into fastboot). So I went back to TWRP and wiped my internal storage and tried installing it again but the same problem kept happening. Now I cannot install any rom ( I have tried Lineage OS and crDroid). I performed the following steps to install a rom:
1. Copy the zip file to internal storage from my laptop
2. Clicked on install
3. Chose the file I just transferred
4. Did the swipe to confirm flash thing
5. It does the flash process without any errors, but then says do you really want to reboot, there is no OS installed.
Even if I try to reboot, it goes straight to fastboot. Checking my internal storage through TWRP, I can see that my system folder is empty.
EDIT: I realised that I need to flash it twice because of the A/B partition thing. I tried doing that too. Now, TWRP no longer says that there is no OS installed and I can see that there are some files in system/. However, I still cannot boot into the OS. It goes straight to fastboot.
EDIT AGAIN: I am able to boot after flashing the stock fastboot rom. So at least I can use my phone for now. However, I would still like to use Havoc OS. Any help is appreciated.
I tried a couple more ROMs. Pixel experience also gets stuck at fastboot and Lineage OS gets stuck in a boot loop

My problem is that I can't install havoc os. I tried all the methods....
Same for me, first time I installed Pixel Experience like you did and worked well, then I tried again and I can't install no more custom ROMs, always getting error 1 in recovery, or not installing TWRP at all. I was able to boot phone again by fastbooting Stock Android 10 v11.0.11.0 April.
But I really enjoyed PE and I wanted to install it.
Good evening dear members, I ask for your kind advice, as I have done something wrong to my Oneplus 5t.
I upgraded my Oneplus 5t with "lineage for microG" 19.1 (from lineage 18).
I had installed TWRP 3.5.0_9 (phone encrypted).
It booted fine the first time into system.
The problem arose after I tried to install Magisk 21.4 from TWRP.
Now the phone only boots in recovery, but it doesn't enter TWRP's menu. It stays on the first TWRP screen (where it shows the version number).
The good thing (I hope) is that I can enter fastboot mode.
I tried flashing TWRP again from fastboot to no avail.
I tried flashing boot.img from fastboot (taken from the original firmware), but still no luck.
Is there a way to install the original firmware from fastboot?
I think starting from scratch would be a step into the right direction.
Please give any suggestion which I fill follow to the letter.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
You have to be decrypted or flash DMverity for A12. I assume You mean Magisk 24.1 the current version is 24.3
Hi. This is what I did:
I downloaded and installed original firmware through fastboot (fastboot was still on).
I also installed original recovery through fastboot.
After that my oneplus 5t was in stock condition, apart from the bootloader, which was unlocked.
After that I managed to install TWRP through fastboot, and then lineage 19.
The thing is that TWRP doesn't support lineage 19, for one reason or another. Or it could be the other way around (lineage 19 doesn't support TWRP). In any case I had a phone which would only go in fastboot mode.
At least I knew what to do, as I did it already: reinstall stock firmware and recovery.
Long story short, I installed LOS recovery and lineage 19, and everything works fine.
Thanks everyone, and especially thaidroid, for the support.
Have a nice day.

Its not working cus you need to format data in recovery and then reboot it.

It wont boot cus your encrypted formatting data will allow op5t to boot.

What recovery are you on? TWRP?
I use the one posted alongside each version: https://download.lineageos.org/dumpling
can you help?
I need to root so I can titanium backup everything. but I can't root. I suspect I might need to fully format and wipe and start again, I tried wiping data and doing a fresh install, but after sideloading magisk it just fails to boot every time now.
Does it boot regularly BEFORE installing magisk? I am trying to define the source of the problem.
I have installed lineage 19 and magisk, and I confirm you that it's possible
Yes. It boots fine if I just install lineage then nevermindthegapps. problem only occurs if I flash magisk. I tried installing the .apk and patching the .boot image manually in it and then fastboot flashing that, but same thing.
oh - one possible thing that it may be - is that I had a couple of modules loaded (I think a gcam fix mod and something similar) in magisk, and I read somewhere about people having them stuck 'installed' despite demoving all traces of magisk app. whether that is the problem I don't know.
This is very strange. That's what I did:
Sideload lineage recovery
Sideload lineage 19
Download magisk apk
Patched boot image from lineage 19.zip
Sideload the patched boot image
And that's it it all worked
May I suggest you to start all over again?
is wiping system data sufficient or do I need to format it? I'd rather not lose my appdata- but I can't rescue it without root / titanium backup :/
Try first without formatting, and see how it goes
I wiped system/cache, installed lineage-19.1-20220719-nightly-dumpling-signed.zip / mindthegapps, phone booted up fine - rebooted fine.
ok, good. Now download latest magisk app and patch the boot img.
do I click patch vbmeta in image?
Yes.
First extract the file called boot.img from lineage.zip you just installed.
Then in magisk select "patch vbmeta in image".
Magisk should produce a file named something like " magisk_pached-24300_f41h3.img".
That patched file should be sideloaded.
Installation is explained really well by topjohnwu
it wouldn't flash without selecting vbmeta, so tried with, flashed it, now i'm sitting looking at the boot logo.
