Sorry for my bad English

Can you acess TWRP?

If yes, connect your phone to PC and flash via ADB. If you dont know how to do it, use this tool (Program) and flash a new and compatible ROM with this tool.

the link you provide is for Poco F1
With the program i sent you you can flash original firmware to your phone.
Just plug your phone to PC then open fastboot mode ( POWER + DOWN) and then open the program, than flash original firmware!
Should work

Use the latest version of SP Flash tool. That must solve your problem.
Hi
I am not sure firmware-> upgrade option will always get you on to STOCK firmware.
Is your phone rooted, have you flashed any custom roms?
what is the purpose of you going back to stock?
The way I do is to get/download STOCK firmware dump and flash it through SP Flash tools.
If it is only that you want to run STOCK rom on your phone you can get few from the A116 android development forums.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2345
Be careful while flashing anything through SP Flash tools, like you can not flash a recovery flashable zip through SP Flashtools. There are ROMS meant to be flashed in a specific way.
SO READ EVERYTHING BEFORE YOU DO, and flash at your own risk.
--- I am not responsible If something goes wrong with your device, flash at your own risk.
I think so u r removing the battery while updating...??
And drivers issue is with me too..connect the device with PC doesn't gets detected...unplug it and dem connect again.

Flash stock rom from Cyanogenmod (Deepflex)

Hello guys, does any of you happen to know if there are specific steps to flash stock rom starting from Deepflex's cyanogen (including cyanogen recovery)? My computer and 2 others are not able to identify the phone when connected while being turned off. Flash tools does not start downloading even if I am holding the power up button. Is there a zip file for stock rom that I can try and flash directly from the recovery? Thanks for your help
You Are supposed to flash it with Cyanogen recovery or twrp..not with so flash tools
Yes, flash tools failed, so I was wondering whether there was another option

I assume you're pressing the power button as well?
Yes, exactly. It just boots up in recovery mode. Moreover, I also get an error when I connect the phone turned off, that windows 10 was not able to recognize the device.

You can't, SPFT expects files in .img format, CyanogenMod ROM's use the new block based updating system which provides system.patch.dat, system.transfer.list and system.new.dat files, incompatible with SPFT.
You could try using the 'dd' command to dd TWRP straight to recovery partition, this does assume you are rooted and have root access in adb shell though.

Looking for step by step guide to UNROOT

Hi there,
I used various ROMs and wanted to show appreciation to all developers for their work. Unfortunately, i use several apps that do not work well with unrooted Poco F1. What are the steps to unroot and go back to stock version of phone? I've tried the guide that uses Mi Flash tool but I cannot make it work. Is there a guide to unistall twrp, lock bootloader and how to flash stock stable rom in order to get OTA updates and phone as when it comes out of the box?
Many thanks to who will help me.
Manuel
no one?
I don't know about locking the bootloade, but for unrooting maybe just flash stock global rom without disabling forced encryption

what was the problem with mi flash tool, it would be helpful to know. you did try flashing a fastboot image ?
As for unrooting if u clean flash any custom rom without flashing magisk ( basically if u don't root) all ur bank application would work.

hi, u are trying to flash ota or recovery file using mi flash tool.
what u need is fastboot rom.
here --- https://en.miui.com/thread-3757763-1-1.html
if u need a guide with images to follow here u go -- http://en.miui.com/a-234.html
keep in mind u need to download the fastboot rom file not the recovery rom.
then extract the file and flash it.
and if u want to lock the bootloader too, then use " clean all and lock " option
it will restore ur phone to 100% stock and relock ur bootloader.
NEVER use the option 'flash factory' by mistake.
i hope i was clear enough if any doubt ask or search xda before proceeding.

[AIO] Guide to Unlock bootloader , Flash TWRP and a Custom rom.

Unlocking Bootloader​1. Make sure you have a sim and active mobile data. Then go to about phone tap build number 7-8 times. After that go to advanced settings > developer options > turn on OEM unlocking and then check if this device is secure and click add account and device.
2. Download Mi unlock tool from here. Extract it and paste it in C:/unlock. or else your device won't be recognized for unlocking.
3. Open Mi unlock tool and then enter the Mi account which was on your device. Put your device in fastboot mode by pressing vol- and power and then connect to PC. Press unlock and if it tells you to wait you have no other option but to wait. If your mi flash tool shows connect your device even after you have connected it. Follow this guide here.
4. After you have unlocked your bootloader reboot your phone.
Flashing TWRP and Rooting via magisk​
1. Download this TWRP image here. Thanks to the original developer mauronofrio.
2. Download adb and fastboot tools here and install it.
3. Now put your phone in fastboot mode and connect it with your pc. Now where you have downloaded the TWRP file rename it to TWRP.img and open a CMD window there if you don't know how just google.
4. Type the following commands
1. fastboot devices
2. fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
3. fastboot reboot recovery.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
5. Your phone will boot into TWRP now. But TWRP will be overwritten by stock miui recovery to stop that you need to flash Magisk. Download this zip move it to internal storage then flash by tapping on install and swipe to flash. Reboot your device. Reboot to recovery again to check if TWRP is present.
Now your device is rooted
OR
Flash latest OrangeFox Recovery if you don't want magisk.
Flashing A rom
1. Download.
2. Flash.
3 Format Data.
Done
Feel free to ask any questions. And don't point a finger at me for messing your device.

Flashing a custom rom is optional. You don't NEED to flash a rom to get TWRP...
---------- Post added at 06:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:46 PM ----------
I've unlocked the bootloader using the unlock tool and waited for 7 days,
But i rooted the device using a different method where i patched a boot.img and flashed that to the device.
Will this method still work for me as I'm already rooted but just want TWRP so i can flash other ROMs.. The post says you have to flash magisk from the (temporary) TWRP for the TWRP to stay as the recovery..
Will the magisk on my phone and the magisk installed here collide?
I just want TWRP so i can switch to a custom rom, so any input is appreciated!!

You can flash twrp and then check if it persists. If not flash magisk again their is no thing as magisk colliding lol. Just make sure you flash a newer version. And if nothing works flash stock rom and then twrp.
If you have the stock boot IMG flash it and then intsall twrp and magisk.

Haha, makes sense! Thank you for your answers
Nevermind.. i got it to work pretty easily..
I have twrp on this device and Pixel Experience ROM and it's working all fine..
But there's this one thing where when booting to recovery, it asks me to input a password for User(0) when i try to input anything it says password failed..
From reading the log, it says it's for decrypting data(8f I'm not mistaken)
Is this important? Do i need to decrypt it?
Currently the ROM works fine with no errors, so I'm not gonna bother, but would still like to know what this "decrypting" thing is..

Yes, If you use a lock screen enter that password it will be decrypted. You will have to format data if you decide to flash any other rom anyway.

Hey buddy, thank you for this quick step-by-step guide. I flash ROMs since 2012 and you know what? It helped me the same. Having all stuff needed for go from stock to custom concentrated in one place (plus some useful tip like the Magisk flash at the end) it's always useful and time-saving. Thank you
2 Micro-notes about fastboot btw:
- write 'fastboot (with lowered 'f'): it may confuse some newbie
- it's 'reboot' instead of 'boot'
