Been a long time, think I've messed my Poco up - HELP! - Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers

Hi All,
I've not really kept in the loop of custom ROM's for a while now. I got a OnePlus Nord and felt like I didn't need to root or flash it so I left it stock. Anyway, I went to change the software on my POCO F1, but I think I've messed myself up here. I was running Pixel Experience, dont think it was the latest build, it was probably like 3+ months old build. And I am using TWRP 3.5.1_10-0. Now I think I messed up by not removing my lockscreen before doing a wipe in TWRP.
This is what I see when I mount MTP through TWRP (after the wipe):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So I did a wipe, and now I cant access the ZIP's I put on the storage for flashing. And there is no OS installed. And it doesnt seem to let me copy files onto the internal storage.
Anyone got any ideas or tips for how to bring this back? I have TWRP and thats it it seems.
EDIT: After a few reboots and wipes, managed to remove the encryption and I can install a new ROM. I wasn't fussed about losing the data. Updated TWRP to 3.6 official, and installing Lineage OS 18.1, lets see how that goes
Thanks,

[Q] Fixing phone for friend.

Been a while since I have done this.
Sprint HTC EVO 4G / apx325c
Kept shutting off.
Now will not start OS/ROM
Has TWRP v2.8.02. (Which from what I have been reading, isn't for this phone so IDK what to do there.)
Trying to trouble shoot, says No OS Installed.
Tried using restore, says complete, reboot, no os installed.
I want to put a stock rom back on this phone. I am downloading one from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_Evo/ROMs#Stock_ROMs
OTA Update #14 5.07.651.6 2.15.00.01.15 N/A Gingerbread 2.3.5 18 February 2013 Yes
Is the TWRP verion correct or did someone install one that was for another phone and it just happen to work?
Hi,
I moved this to the correct section.
Im sorry I don't understand the difference between the two sections as I don't know much about the phone.

Downloaded the rom. Used install to flash it. Didn't work :/
First, the phone you're trying to fix is the HTC EVO 4G LTE (aka Jewel). The ROM's you're trying to flash are for the HTC EVO 4G (aka Supersonic). You need to find a ROM based on the new partition layout and flash it to the phone. Afterwards, I suggest making a backup to prevent such issues from happening again. Just take a look at either Development or Original Development for a ROM based off the NPL.
Thanks.
I am working with cpt throwback in correcting this issue in the IRC.
Once I get the correct TWRP installed back I will flash a rom. Don't know which yet.
So I found the rom I need. It's a stock rooted one from cpt throwbacks thread.
I updated TWRP to his latest version.
Attempting to flash rom and it says successful but throws error for mounting cache.
Have v2.8.1.0 of TWRP
Finish flash and says reboot, no os installed.
Is that version of TWRP for the new partition layout?
Post a link to the ROM you were trying to install.
The thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2639180
4.13.651.4_jewel_stock_rooted_Sense5_Android4.3_odex.zip
http://d-h.st/1c6
DL ROM and his latest TWRP from there
Last night I sat the phone down while it was in TWRP and left it. Came back a while later and started messing with it again and could mount cache. IDK what is going on with this dang thing.
Attempted to flash but get an error zip signiture verification failed so I went to sleep leaving the phone on in TWRP.
This morning I re-downloaded the ROM. Verified the MD5 and placed on phone. Attempted flash, it worked but seen error for not able to mount system.
Restarted the phone and it booted to the ROM I flashed and everything seems to be functioning on the phone.
Currently attempting to fetch recovery.log. http://pastebin.com/AYLTHpjT
phone seems to be having a problem, keeps turning off. Not shutting down but just OFF.
When plugged in USB it has this issue the most so I assume that the USB connector on the MB is shorting.
I will be returning this phone to its owner as it is working as far as I can get it to.
Thanks to everyone for their help.

Lost my root

i recently decided to install a new LP rom on my galaxy s2. i was previously running the unofficial cm12. but before wiping the whole phonei decided to do a little internal sd cleanup, which led me to deleting most files (some that were important). i then successfully installed the new rom without any problems. Once the phone booted up and i tried to run titanium backup to restore my data it didn't detect root on my phone. so i have lost root and need help getting it back. any ideas?
Previous rom: [ROM][5.0.2][I9100] CyanogenMod 12 by Lysergic Acid
Current rom: Resurrection Remix by varund7726
PS: i know i am a giant noob at this so save the instults pls
thank you

You didn't loose root, you just haven't activated it. You can do so by going to developer options and enable root access for apps and adb.

Your recovery version is too old. You need recovery version 6.0.4.7 and higher. Download newer CWM version here: https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/i9100/

First time root - few questions

It's finally time for me to do what every XDA user done already - root my phone and use another ROM. I haven't ever before done this that's why I'm very excited.
I'm trying to follow this noob-friendly guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2213910 . I read it like ten times already, but I still have some questions.
1. I want to have a CM rom. Should I get Lloir's CM 12.1 or the official CM 11? The thing is, I won't be able to get another rom for almost a year and I want a quite stable rom.
2. I guess I should install the latest TWRP 2.8 recovery from this forums, am I right? But then, why on the official CM download page there is a separate "Cyanogen Recovery" file?
3. According to the tutorial, I should install SuperSu, is this the right version?
https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/
4. The thing I'm worried about mostly - my digitizer is damaged and I sometimes get "phantom touches", I can't tap anything on screen, the only solution is screen off & on. What if phantom touches appear when I'm in recovery? From what I read most things are controlled by physical buttons (which work), but not all, some requires to swipe. What then? Can I turn the screen off or abort the process and start again?
Thanks in advance for every reply.
If you need a stable rom you should stay on stock.
1. I use CM12.1 and used CM11 before. I prefer 12.1. They all have some more or less annoying bugs -> read the threads and make your own decision
2. Use the TWRP version which is linked in the rom thread. Cyanogen recovery has less functions and is not public released for x+ afaik
3. CyanogenMod is shipped with it's own su-management app. So no need to install SuperSU
4. you can turn screen on and off in recovery
Thank you very much!
An hour ago I installed CM12.1, I may say successfully, because it booted and now Play Store is downloading GBs of apps., so I can't in fact do anything .
Maybe just one lat thing. If I'd like to install a CM12.1 update in the future, do I have to wipe everything? Or just flash the boot.img and rom and that's it?
CM says you don't need to wipe, but Lloir sometimes wants us to wipe x)
In CM12 root must be enabled in developer options btw.

First the 10 beta version recovery flashed
https://download.c.realme.com/osupdate/P2Q.ozip
After that, flashed last V9 old version A12 there is no night mode + SOT
https://download.c.realme.com/osupdate/Q2P.zip
If you want a newer normal setup from the file manager version last V9 A21 night mode + SOT working
https://download.c.realme.com/osupdate/RMX1851EX_11_A.21_OTA_0210_all_201912092010.ozip
After flashing the p2q zip can I flash directly the latest coloros ozip available from realme website or is it just the q2p zip which can be flashed
data backup needed?
Thanks a lot for posting this.
So do we need to take backup of the device, while doing the " 10 beta version recovery flashed- using P2Q.ozip"? Like the photos and videos and data will be in the same way or it gets cleared?
And also, if possible, can you post the details steps of it?

Yes , you need to backup your storage
Android 10 will be forced downloaded and installed on ur phone after downgrading to 9
Can't copy the Q2P file to the phone. Instead, I get the message "Cannot copy item. The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected". Tried several times. I can copy over all but that file, for some reason.
EDIT (17/3/20): Downloading it via the phone, instead of the computer, proved effective.
Stuck on beta version
After installing ptoQ when it's on Android 10 24/03/2020 update it stuck on beta version
Which is not allowing to flash other ozip files
Such as p2Q and the official stock rom RMX1851EX_11_A.21_OTA_0210_all_201912092010.ozip
Unable to disable quotas on dev/block/platform because system/bin/tune2fs is missing
Installation aborted
Little help will be appreciated...
cant Flash
I can't flash the Q2P, the writing failed installation

Question [EMERGENCY] Need a TWRP backup of Indian Mi 11X Pro

Hello everyone! I am in quite a bit of trouble after trying to flash xiaomi.eu rom on my Indian Mi11X Pro. I accidentally flashed everything from the EU rom and that seems to have bricked my phone. When I tried flashing the stock rom, I get a crc error. Even if I force flash it, it always boots into fastboot. Tried downloading multiple time as well. Did not help. The firmware is probably messed.
I did have a TWRP backup made but that got erased accidentally when my sdcard was wiped.
If any of you have an Indian Mi11X Pro, PLEASE upload a backup of super partition from twrp.
Here is what I am looking for:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
Thanks a ton!
EDIT: Funny how life works. I managed to fix it just after writing this.
If anyone else is having a similar issue, use the MiFlash Tool instead of using the bat or sh file directly (Or in terminal). It appears the fastboot version is very very important. All the best.

How did you manage to root it and which twrp did you install? I'm asking because I have the same phone and looking to root and install twrp.
You dont need to root your device to install twrp. You do need an unlocked bootloader though. Once your bootloder is unlocked, just follow instructions from here.
