I have snapdragon device( kenzo).. officially unlocked bootloader and installed cofface twrp.. currently on cm13.. want to revert back to global stable miui 8 , which is latest release... how to do that?? plz help..
1) flash akla twrp from ur present twrp
2) flash miui 8 global stable rom (1.19 gb)
3) reboot to fastboot mode
4) connect ur phone to pc and unlock the bootloader from mi unlock
5) reboot
Congrats, now you're in miui 8
There is no need to flash Alka twrp, cofface will be sufficient.
Also, no need to unlock the bootloader again if its already unlocked.
Just flash the correct version from here http://en.miui.com/a-234.html through cofface twrp.
Also, dont forget to nand back up your current ROM.
Flashing the mi recovery rom through alka twrp relocks the bootloader, and that's why the device can't boot into miui after flashing.
Unlocking the bootloader solves this problem.
Both the methods are legit.
Up to you which one you'll choose.
I am not sure if simply unlocking the bootloader again solves the problem. I tried that and Miui would still enter the boot loop even after unlocking.
Hi! I have officially unlocked my bootloader.
Can I just follow this steps(no more no less) to go back to Stock MIUI?

i'm afraid because I read that it may cause a bootloop to Mi logo only
Hello
I have a Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro [Qualcomm]
I tried installing TWRP on my phone and my phone now won't boot, it stays on Mi logo
I have done these:
1) I installed Global Developer 6.10.13 [I did it from the phone's update menu when I was on a custom ROM]
2) Global Developer ROM got installed just fine, it was working flawlessly but bootloader was relocked
3) I unlocked the bootloader using Mi Unlock tool (official way, with my Mi Account)
4) I installed TWRP Recovery from this site
http://forum.xda-developers.com/red...official-twrp-3-0-2-0-recovery-redmi-t3352966
5) When I launched TWRP it asked for a decryption password, I tried my pins and Mi Account password and I did a factory reset
Now my phone is stuck at Mi Logo
What do I have to do now?
I just want TWRP and Root with Global Developer nothing more.
The MIUI MM ROMs have inbuilt data encryption. That's why official TWRP asks for that decryption password. Do this -
Boot into fastboot mode. Flash this TWRP. This has inbuilt support for data decryption as well as dm-verity disabling plus it can root your MIUI too. Go ahead and try this one.
Thanks! That fixed things!
Glad to be of help.
Hello all
I have been using CM13 so far on my Redmi Note 3 (Snapdragon). I would like to flash official Miui 8 recovery ROM. I have "twrp cofface" recovery. However, whenever I try to flash the .zip via my twrp recovery, it re-locks the bootloader and replaces my twrp with stock recovery and effectively the phone goes into boot loop.
I have unlocked my bootloader officially. Could anyone tell me how do I flash Miui ROM from TWRP recovery? Do I need another variant of the TWRP? I dont want to flash Miui ROM via fastboot as it would involve installing mi flashing tool. Is it possible to flash Miui via twrp without re-locking bootloader and also keeping the custom recovery?
Thanks.
I just found out I need to flash alka twrp. I did so and now I can flash Miui 8 without any problems. Please close this thread. Thanks.
As soon as i flash twrp it breaks my phone from booting with official and un official bootloader unlock. I feel like i am missing something very simple I'm running miui. Thanks.
Solved: boot.img not patched, fixed by installing zcx recovery.
I have bought a Redmi Note 4x from Goldway Aliexpress with global rom. I would like to install TWRP for Lineage OS, but when i get ADB and bootloader, i can successfuly install TWRP. (My device shipped with unlocked bootloader for some reason) The problem is that i cannot get it to boot into TWRP recovery, as there is no recovery on the device. The Mi logo flashes once and then quickly disappears. What can I do?
