Help Cat S48c got broken after install magisk Still have TWRP Backup - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Good morning everybody
First of all I did a Backup used modfiy TWRP downloaded from here
It was working with no problem but I flashed the TWRP img mistakenly to boot_b which is the active slot
I almost tried everything to get it back , like flash dm vertiy , Uninstall Magisk , Flash empty metavar , Su SR3 etc.
It boots to bootloader everytime after restore the backup with TWRP , I tried to flash it with fastboot but it does not take any system or vendor ext4 img
If there is any thing I could do to get it back I will really appreciate you guys

Cannot boot Up to bootloader

I have a honor 8, I did install lineage but something happened and got into bootloop and did use my twrp backup that installed stock system without my apps etc. I do have a kernel that gives me root access (SuperSU) tried to uninstall with the in app root remove but it failed when I did check stock boot.img. so I extracted the boot, vendor och system from update.app and installed it with twrp, but the boot.img gave me a bootloop so I used my SuperSU boot.img and it boot. Did try to force update with a dload folder but it didn't work only came to 5% and did try like 10 different versions. After that did I download flashify and flashed stock recovery.img but couldn't boot up to it it whent to erecovery. Did also try to boot into bootloader but it just booted up to twrp (did installed it again). How can i get back to completely stock? And does I have a bootloader? Also have a decrypted the /data partition for the custome rom

Twrp bootloop RN5

Hey guys ,
I unlocked bootloader and flashed official twrp via fastboot . I successfully booted into twrp but when I click reboot my phone stuck on mi boot logo . I personally tried many thing to tackle this problem. But every time I got same thing . Can anyone solve this ?
Redwolf twrp is working fine .
Yes, happend the same to me, basically what's happening is that your phone can't decrypt itself in the boot.
What's the fix? Flash twrp, go into it
Then wipe EVERYTHING,even format.
That will be you new partitions (new encryption) in your phone.
Then with everything formated, plug your phone in twrp and copy whatever you want, and viola.
You're done, copy the rom you want to flash and will boot.
Please let me know when your phone is fixed.
Or you can just root your device
I had the same issue as you yesterday.
You can try lazyflasher to prevent bootloop

Stuck on poco by xiaomi boot screen

Im stuck on poco boot screen and after few seconds it reboots to fastboot.
I did a twrp backup (system, vendor, data and boot) when everything was working but now after i try to restore the twrp backup, it still doesnt fix the problem.
before this, i flashed a new PE build and that had a boot loop for some reason.
wtf?
How does my twrp backup restore doesnt fix it ?
Do i have to miflash a fastboot rom ? is it the only fix for me now ?
You may find your solution here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-3-decryption-t3853004/page42
You can also install latest ROM and restore data only.

i dont have a firmware zip in my storage and i cant push it through adb because i didnt have debugging enabled. So i cant cleanflash because i dont have the firmware zip. Looks like i will need to use the mifash method.
flash the original Vendor image!
if you have flashed PE over MIUI10.2.x
, this mean you have used MODIFIED VENDOR IMAGE
poco supports Treble!
you cannot flash PE/ or any other custom rom over modified vendor image
take the latest vendor image from mirror.akhilnarang.me/MIUI/beryllium/
and flash it view twrp
and reboot
you wil lbe fine
i fixed the problem. I put firmware - vendor zip in sd card and flashed it through sd card. All good now. Thanks for trying to help my dumb ass.
i guess there might be some magisk module thats causing the bootloop after i flash a new build of rom . Maybe.
If thats the case. There's a flashable zip file that lets you disable a magisk module via TWRP.. ehehehe.. happened to me too. I flash gl tools via magisk systemless then it got stuck on pocofone f1 loading screen.. so i flashed that magisk module disabler.. hit some commands via TWRP TERMinal emu.. then it boot right away..

Always uninstall Magisk before flashing new update if you are on official twrp cuz it doesn't support ota, update then reinstall it. If you have did so wipe encrypted internal storage , wait a bit it will boot .

Thanks. Didn't know about this.
Tell someone to call you, it was glitchy for me for the first 2-3 mins after the call but later works fine.

Recovery without data loss after a Magisk update gone bad, still possible?

So i had a hickup with updating magisk to v20.3.
The result was that after a reboot the device got stuck in fastboot mode.
I went to TWRP 3.3.0 recovery and backed up all offered partitions before then attempting to re-flash magisk.
Didn't work out.
Then i heard that if you extract the boot.img from the stock firmware and flash it with fastboot you can get back to a working state where you can install Magisk again.
So i thought.
Now after booting i am greeted by the miui first install wizard and the whole set of apps seems to be gone as well as my settings.
IIRC i only removed the dalvik cache which shouldn't affect this state.
Where in the procedure is the mistake and can i get the old pre-broken update state back? I am afraid something has been lost in the process

Just install the latest stock rom then install recovery and restore all the backed up partitions.
Now install magisk and reboot.
If that doesn't work (u get into fastboot again) then just flash the boot.img file via fastboot and then reboot.
if i restore the backed up partitions and install magisk over it i get back to the non-booting , stuck in fastboot version. So something is wrong in the state of denmark.

I looked at the /data backup from twrp and it is only 3mb, unless stuff got moved to /system or so, it seems to be gone forever.
Hell , i wil never update magisk again.

Don't install magisk with the rom, just restore the data, flash the stock boot.img file and then reboot.
After boot uninstall the magisk manager app and reboot to recovery and then flash magisk again.

Mi A3 Android 10 v11.0.15 unable to flash twrp and magisk

Hi I recently updated my Mi A3 to May Android 10 update i.e. v11.0.15 . Before this it was rooted with TWRP and Magisk as now both of these softwares are gone due to update. Now i want to flash TWRP first but unable to install it as I changed the active slot to A (current B) as per old method but nothing happened and phone stucked at Fastboot screen. This thing really concerns me as if I flash twrp.img at slot B, does it boot properly? Other way around to root Mi A3 using Magisk manager by patching boot.img of V11.0.15. Where can i get this and is it a reliable method without flashing custom recovery like TWRP? Can i flash any other good custom recovery?

Starting July im also facing the same issue. I restarted my phone but received a message that phone has been updated. Now TRWP and root is gone. I can't flast TWRP again on slot boot_a, also cannot flast twrp on boot_b. Stuck on Flashboot.
I was lucky to have the Stock boot img, i then flashed the Stock boot img on both slots a & b. But cannot flast TWRP anymore using ABD/fastboot
Solution: I flashed the new TWRP 3.4 for Android 10 from this link and now the problem is fixed!! https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a3/development/recovery-twrp-3-4-0-0-patched-boot-img-t4123287

in that post they said
"Note: enable "use rm -rf instead of formatting" in TWRP settings, before you wipe data, else userdata partition will be damaged"
what does it mean???

I only used the files from that link. I did not read it anything. But Thanks, you pointed this out.
This means that the next time I wipe data in TWRP, then I should first enable "use rm -rf instead of formatting" in TWRP settings
I have never tried 'wipe data' on this phone. But I'll remember this the next time I 'wipe data'. Thanks, you just saved me.
