TWRP doesn't boot after flashing latest build of H2OS

I flashed Oxygen Recovery and then installed the latest build of H2OS. After the ROM booted up, I flashed TWRP 3.0.2, 3.0.1 and 3.0.0 but none of these boot, i.e., my phone doesn't boot to recovery. What can I do now?
P.S.: Bootloader is unlocked
Found a remedy, flashing the BluSpark's modded version worked. Someone please tell me how to delete this thread :3

[RETURN TO STOCK][V510 GPE] SEPT. 2016 Stock Rooted+Unrooted TWRP Backups & Recovery

[RETURN TO STOCK][V510 GPE] SEPT. 2016 Stock Rooted+Unrooted TWRP Backups & Recovery
V510 Google Play Edition (palman) Only!
I just recently got a GPE edition, and turns out there's no up-to-date factory images available (way lame!). So I OTA updated to the current 5.1 LMY47O.L017 September 2016 security patch, perfomed a factory reset and live booted TWRP 3.0.2 via fastboot and backed up an unmodified current build. I then rooted with SuperSU 2.78 and extracted the current Sept. 2016 LP stock recovery image, and also made an unmodified stock rooted TWRP backup. Installing the unrooted backup through TWRP and fastboot flashing the current recovery I have provided will bring you up-to-date unrooted and allow future OTA's (if we get any)....or just flash my stock rooted backup, and be on the current build all pre-rooted and ready to go.

I assume you know how to copy and paste and install a TWRP backup. The stock recovery image can be flashed the same way you flashed TWRP easily just by renaming the file to recovery.img and boot into fastboot mode and flash it via:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Hope this helps some people out, what a pain doing 10 OTA's! I still cannot believe on an unlocked GPE edition there are not any fastboot factory images....WTF!!!
hello,
When I downloaded the twrp backup as zip from the link and tried to flash it. I received an "invalid" zip error from TWRP. I have the v510 tablet so I thought i could install the backup. If you happen to have some ideas on why this happened I would like to try any of them. thanks.
edit: i am using 7zip on Windows system with defaults. i also tried setting full and absolute paths.
edit2. I realized that its a backup and not a flashable rom. Stupid mistake late at night.

global beta 7.2.9

As the title says global beta 7.2.9 is out. Anyone installed it?
What about twrp and root compatibility?
http://en.miui.com/download-299.html here is the link
Just installed it without issue with twrp 3.0.3. no issue so far, reinstalled twrp and flash super su 2.79 without problem too

Can you confirm the process please? Is it just:
1. Download the recovery version of the update to the phone.
2. Boot to recovery (TWRP).
3. Install the update zip file.
4. Re install TWRP.
5. Reinstall the SuperSU zip.
6. Reboot to system.
Do we need additional reboots between the steps? Do we need to unroot before installing the update? Does it matter if the existing global beta ROM is several versions old?
Sorry for asking so many questions. I have not updated the ROM since unlocking the bootloader and installing TWRP/SuperSU several months ago and am worried about bricking my phone.
That's the steps i did , i first booted the rom just to be sure everything was OK before reinstalling twrp and supersu. I only had a message telling me the update wasn't successful but after installing twrp and wiping cache everything was fine. As long you install the full rom you should be fine with the update (do a clean flash to be sure). What version of Android is actually running on your phone ?
Update twrp to 3.0.3 as the previous version won't work with nougat

That's good to know. Just to confirm, the update could be applied "dirty" without a need to reinstall all apps and data afterwards?
I am still on global beta 6.11.3 (which is MM) and twrp 3.0.2.0. Is 7.2.9 based on nougat which would require the update of twrp? I had thought that the nougat beta was on a separate thread open to a closed group only...
I did a clean flash when updated to nougat (was on 6.11.10) but did a dirty flash from 7.1.19 to 7.2.9. Update to twrp 3.0.3 is highly recommended as it's updated with nougat libs and 3.0.2 won't "stick" with nougat miui.
Only the fiirst nougat build was on a closed beta but now it's open beta and can be updated via updater app.
Édit: clean flash is not mandatory i guess, i did it only to be sure to have a clean install without rogue app or incompatibility issue between mm and nougat. I use supersu 2.79 and have no issue
Twrp 3.0.3..?? Not available for Mi5 on twrp site.. Any mirror plz..

Look in the mi5 developement thread There is twrp section and in the 3rd post the op uploaded a unofficial release of twrp 3.0.3 but stable enough to be considered as official.

Finally did it, but not without scare - my Mi5 was stuck at the boot logo with "Bootloader unlock" message screen after flashing the recovery version of 7.2.9 update and reflashing TWRP 3.0.3.0. Luckily managed to get the phone into fastboot mode to flash the fastboot version of 7.2.9 and get the phone back on again. Finally reinstalled TWRP and boot into TWRP before rebooting to system successfully.
The key step I had forgotten was the booting into TWRP after its installation over the 7.2.9 stock recovery, which had led to the bootloop.
So I now have updated to 7.2.9. I do notice that the boot process takes quite a bit longer than 6.11.3 (design of nougat?), but once up, the phone feels as responsive as before.

Flash Miui Ota without stock recovery

Hello,
I'm on Joyeuse device with MIUI V12.0.1.0.QJZEUXM.
Twrp used: TWRP 3.5.0_10-0 for Joyeuse build by dungphp
Rooted with magisk.
I get few weeks ago OTA update for MIUI V12.0.2.0.QJZEUXM, downloaded it to /sdcard/downloaded_rom, when I try to install it through MIUI settings, my device reboot to TWRP, I put my pattern to decrypt datas and I get "Error installing zip file '@/cache/recovery/block.map".
So, how can I install this update ?
Can I go in TWRP, and flash this zip ?
I don't want to reinstall all of my apps if this process broke official rom.
Thanks for your help.
