My device is Mi 10 5G (umi). I have unlocked bootloader and install rom Xiaomi.eu 20.3.28.
Today, I go into TWRP, do wipe Art cache/Davilk, Data, System, Cache then format data.
Then I reboot to install another room. But now it got stuck there.
Sometimes it says System_root file is read only and cannot mounted. When I could manage to mount system, I could not install any rom. It fail after system partition unpacking. It says that /system can not mounted and keep bootloader to stuck with TWRP. I do not know how to deal with it.
Please help me!

I have just figure out that my problem come from installing mi-globe 20.4.30 rom. I will try your method to see if it could help, though I have reflashed recovery and do format/wipe for so many times without hope.

I came from MI Globe without success ( system read only) in recovery.
You must renew the internal partition structure.
Install with Mi Flash the enterire Europe fastboot rom EEA

Hi.
Facing strange behaviour here with my Redmi note 4 Nikel. (Unlocked boot)
If I flash stock using SPFlashtools, I can boot after flashing and complete the startup definition, including the association to my Mi account.
ThenI can boot in fastboot ad flash TWRP (greek miui version, 3.2.1.1) in the recovery ad boot inmediately to TWRP to avoid the reflash of the stock recovery in that partition, but here comes the first issue...
Even being scratch firmware, TWRP asks for password. My Miui account password is not unlocking TWRP, so I format data partition but when rebooting to the system, the equipment stays in the Xiaomi logo, not even trying to boot to the system.
What is the problem with hose two (TWRP and System) unable to live toghether?
Regards

You need to flash lazyflasher after flashing TWRP. Surely you have read that in the instructions about flashing TWRP if you are using miui?

Hi,
I can finally unlock the bootloader - which AFAIK wipes user data. Now, since I've used the phone heavily over the waiting period, there's a lot to backup and reintegrate later on.
What's the quickest way to do so?
MTP-copy all of Internal Storage to PC -> unlock -> copy back?
(I am experienced with unlocking, rooting, flashing Roms and recoveries, but haven't had a non-rooted phone for about 8 years, so I am a bit out of the loop on non-root backup procedures)
TIA!
Using adb pull, you could probably get your internal storage.
Iirc the canonical dirs are:
/storage/emulated/0
/storage/emulated/legacyHelium should be sufficient for apps.
For me unlocking didn't wipe data.
Only wipe was when I installed developer rom to be able to unlock.
So the process should be unlock, flash twrp and then flash magisk to maintain twrp and avoid the bootloop. Then you can backup with root and clean flash if you want.
Twrp can't decrypt data but it's not needed to flash magisk. Anyway you can flash orangefox (latest version, beta 6) from twrp and it can decrypt data to access it from recovery.

Any advantage of using adb vs. just mounting the device via mtp? Last I've used adb for file transfer it was slower than even mtp...

Thanks. This is gonna sound very noob, but since I'm new to MIUI - is data already encrypted in stock MIUI? Otherwise I'll need orangefox only for switching between future custom ROMs, right?

I mean to unlock because I can't bind my mi account in stable and had to install developer rom to bind account.
Yes data is already encrypted on stock rom. If you need to access data partition in recovery you need orangefox. But it's not needed to flash magisk.
To use custom roms you don't need orangefox because you can format data from twrp and then flash the rom. I started using orangefox since I tried miui 10 oreo beta because I was unable to avoid encryption on that rom.

Thanks for the explanations!
I plan on just unlocking bootloader, enabling cam2 and installing a current gcam today - I'll wait with flashing until miui10 stable is released in the next week or so, so I can do a "fair" comparison between Lineage and Miui (and possibly some others)

A quick heads-up, just in case anyone stumbles upon this thread:
As of MIUI 9.5.17 global stable, using official MIUI unlock 3.3.525.23, unlocking the bootloader DOES WIPE user data & factory-resets the phone (to be more precise - it wipes the complete internal storage).
SD is, as expected, left alone.

I only shared my experience.
My data was wiped when I installed developer rom to bind account but when I unlocked bootloader after 360h data remained intact. When I flashed twrp phone didn't boot but I solved it flashing magisk.

Yes, and I thank you for it.
I was not accusing you of anything - things may well have changed with different versions of MIUI or different versions of the unlock tool, or between chinese/global versions. Just a warning for others that, at least with the versions I posted, having a backup is reaaaaally nice :good:

You guys will need an authorized beta account unless you want to flash the ROM via TWRP Recovery
So, I updated without an authorized account though TWRP. As soon as I tried to reboot to system, it brought me back to TWRP.
I suppose I had to disable encryption all over again so I formatted Data, installed the update again and started to move the required zip for Magisk and encryption disabling back in the internal memory. During the installation the system rebooted (I didn't ask to, the first time it didn't reboot til I asked) and something crashed on the first screen pf MIUI 10. Then it decided to reboot again to recovery... and the TWRP was gone, I have the MIUI stock recovery again. Anyway, I formatted the data once more and the system is running without problems now.
tldr: Updated, data was deleted, TWRP is gone, system seems good

Hello! I am a Redmi Note 3 user, some days ago I changed from stable to beta ROM and spoiled my device. All the sensors are not working and can't apply for unlocking bootloader. Please suggest me an unofficial method to unlock bootloader and install custom recovery. Hope you guys will help me soon! Thanks

Did u manually downloaded recovery rom from mi site.?
Why miui 9? Latest beta is miui 10 . go to system updater app and press update to upgrade to latest miui 10 beta version.
I think latest beta is 8.10.11 something.

U stuck during upgrading miui10 coz u must factory reset. Sometime rom cant boot due to data partition and apps.
So need to clear user data to succesfully boot on upgrade. So u must factory reset to clear data partition. Else u will face problems. or bootloop while upgrade.
So if I just want to do the repair sensor stuff, what shall I do?
I did install TWRP but couldn't install any custom ROM, all stuck in bootloop!

Just extract the persist.img file from fastboot rom.
Put the device in fastboot mode or if it doesnt work then put in edl mode and flash.
And flash using fastboot command
fastboot devices
fasboot erase persist
fastboot flash persist persist.img
fastboot reboot
Or
easy method
u can just flash persist.img file using TWRP. if twrp ask which parttion to flash then select persist partition.
I should have been more careful before updating coz after the update i realized that twrp won't work on miui 13. I can fastboot recovery but the internal storage is encrypted and it shows 0 MB. I need root, so i am thinking of downgrading to 12.5 again. Can i do that without loosing data? Also how can i downgrade? Should i just download fastboot version of the rom and update it?

you can't update from 13 to 12.5 you need to erase all your data , it's mandatory...
Just flash the fastboot rom with Mi Flash and tick "Clean All" so after MIUI boot you can flash twrp and other ROM again
Already messed it up :-( Can you please tell me which fastboot rom i should flash... I was using eu rom but even after flashing it phone boots to mi recovery.
Hey, yesterday I flashed xiaomi eu stable MIUI 13.0.3 by their script.
To do it,
1) put the phone in fastboot mode
2) just run the script by double clicking on it, however you need the file with data_format on the end.
If your phone does bootloop and go back to MIUI Recovery 5.0 like mine did yesterday, you can fix it by wiping all data in this recovery it boots up to and then restarting the phone. It worked for me and my friend.
