Ah Yes. I don't upload Google VBmeta for non_booting gsi
that exe thats on samsungs official site to install drivers doesnt install working fastboot drivers. cant do anything in fastbootd
Where do I download recovery for step 2?

Hi, I am thinking about attempting this, did you have any luck, did it work for you, or shouldn't I bother trying?
It worked but you have to make sure you use the right method to enter recovery. Stock ROM keeps reverting the changes. Protip: volume down and power button should do the trick iirc

Did you unlock bootloader first then flash recovery.tar before flashing gsi?
ofc bootloader needs to be unlocked, which will void your warranty, permanently disable work profiles, and it'll keep *****ing about it every time the device boots

How did you root? And what rom are u using now?
It is necessary to be root to install the gsi, in the redmi note 11s it was not necessary to do it after installing the gsi rom, vmeta is it necessary? Just installing the recovery and then the gsi by fasboot ok, it would be nice if you gave a guide like You were able to install the rom. It seems more complicated to install on Samsung than on Xiaomi. It has never been so complicated for me, Greetings.

I did exactly what you said using corvus 12, but its in bootloop and wont start. Which GSI do you know that works? I dont want to have to wipe and fix my phone everytime just to find out.
For some reason, attempting to erase the system partition results in error:
Erasing 'system' FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')
fastboot: error: Command failed

Hi guys,
Before you say again a topic on a non bricked One Plus X, I would like to let you know that I've checked and try almost all of the tutorial I've seen on xda and one plus forum.
I was on CM14.1 with this ROM : https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-14-onyx-t3452150
Unfortunately, I made the 25-12-2016 update and it totally broke up the phone..
I download the OnePlus X OxygenOS 3.1.4 on the One Plus website. So I flash it on the stock recovery, it tells me "Install success" then I reboot and it stays on the bootlogo.
For information, I can't access the oem unlock menu if needed, but when I ask the oem device info it says unlocked. The phone is detected by the computer sometimes with unknown device and sometimes correctly with the qualcomm drivers..
I have a back up made from TWRP, I can access the device by the fastboot mode, it seems that all the operations written here worked but it doesn't install or even boot on TWRP..
Thanks for your help guys.
Are you using latest TWRP from website think version 3.0.3?

I'm not even using TWRP, since I can't boot on it.. But I tried to flash the twrp-3.0.2-2 from blue spark v41, after the installation via Flashboot, it doesn't boot up on the recovery..
So after flashing TWRP you use fastboot boot recovery.img and nothing happens?

If you did not unlocked bootloader properly then also you might face the problem...
to unlock bootloader: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/general/discussion-how-to-root-oneplus-x-t3242830
make sure you follow all the step. (If you didn't followed these steps then lock bootloader {fastboot oem lock} and unlock using this mathod, worked for me.)

So I don't have any idea on how make android back on my phone.
I just have access to Fastboot mode. No recovery, nothing else..

You should send it to RMA

Start by seeing if you can fastboot flash stock recovery from any 2.X.X OOS. Then fastboot flash twrp 3.0.2. If your on new bootloader meaning latest ROMs or OOS3 then you need to boot into 3.0.2 and from there you can flash IMG of twrp 3.0.3. Make sure you boot right back into recovery after flashing any twrp or it won't stick. This worked for me when I lost my recovery twice but always remember at your own risk. Not responsible if you make your phone into a paper weight.
Fix It!

Sounds good and regards to the developer, But I recommend that to wait until the TWRP be tested well and release the first update vesion .
for me I will keep waiting for the official TWRP, no need to rush there is no any custom rom
Well it works for me. I use the redmi 9 nfc 3/32 lancelot.

I guess you can test it yourself. Quite easy to fix things if it doesn't boot the TWRP. You'll simply flash the original recovery.img from the current MIUI full ROM installed on your phone to erase the TWRP without even erasing userdata. My bootloader is currently locked so can't test it now. About bricks, as you know this is an MTK so you have to be extremely careful.
The advantage with TWRP is you can mod the system so long as you enable write access to that partition. Flashing Magisk modules also works better via the recovery.
Last thing, I think the only way you can get root on MIUI is through the patched boot method. Flashing the Magisk installer zip in TWRP just doesn't do.

It means the flashing program in the zip. You can just flash the img file via fastboot command. I tried, it works.
Copy the .img file to your fastboot folder & flash .
Almost brick my device.....
Today I installed this in my redmi 9....
I was surprised when I see that my device is is boot into this recovery....
I am very happy but my happiness gone after a few minutes.....
When I boot into system I cannot boot into recovery.....
So I format all user data and chach....
But same thing happen To me....
I flash this recovery again with fastboot mode.. then I can boot into recovery...
I think it could be happen because my phone is encrypted... So I force dencrypted my device....
When I want to boot into system. I fail to boot no system and no recovery...
I think it is over but luckily I able to boot into fastboot mood ..then I flash boot and recovery....
I realise that there is no need to flash this recovery... Because you can root your phone without recovery....
If you try to flash GSI ROM... It will not happen because it does not support GSI ROM
There is no option to erase system and vendor separately.....
So who want to flash GSI via this recovery, I suggest you do not flash it because we do not need it this time....
I am not sure it may be happen only with me. Feel free to share your experience...

In order to get that lucky we will need source code. Without source code nothing can be done properly.
Unlocking Bootloader1. 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.

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'
Hello XDA developers, I'm in urgent and I have a really big problem. It sounds funny but, I deleted my realme ui recovery ,_,
I was trying to install PPUI 4.1 on my Realme 7 but I saw a tutorial that you have to erase the recovery to install TWRP. Please, I need a solution of how can I get it back. I also tried flashing a lot of recoveries and their vbmeta but nothing works. Sadly.
Edit: I'm on RMX2151_11_C.17 | Realme UI 2.0 Latest version
Here is the stock recovery

You sure? I'm on RMUI2.0 and how do I flash it? Can I type 'fastboot boot recovery.img'? Are my data will be wiped?
Sorry for a lot of questions, haha

From what I read before, fastboot boot will only boot to that recovery file temporarily but I haven't tried it myself. It should be
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
I'm not 100% sure it will work without problems, but if it did, your data will not be wiped.
I suggest you wait for someone else to answer coz I'm not expert. I only learned from guides in the telegram group.

You can try, first, if fastboot works in your device, type adb reboot fastboot, once the script ends, quickly disconnect device from your PC and again reconnect it, you will be redirected to fastboot, if the bootloader is unlocked, you could flash it using fastboot commands.
If you can´t get it to work then you can flash it using SPFT https://spflashtool.com/, put the recovery, in the same folder, with the attached files. All the sources to can use the tool, here https://www.getdroidtips.com/bypass-mediateks-sp-flash-tool-authentication-protection/

I have never used SPFlashTool before honestly, I'm just scared to break my phone or lost my data in it. I just wish to install a custom ROM

Most of the custom roms I've seen requires formatting data. Just to be sure have you unlocked bootloader already? That requires wiping data iirc.
If not then nothing will really work with what you're doing.

What you are saying now is totally different from what you firstly posted.
Installing a custom ROM doesn't require a stock recovery (just in case you are confusing), and obviously, to can switch from a stock ROM to a custom ROM, that has a total different basement, it's mandatory to format data, anyway, you should back up your data previously to do so.

I meant, I wish to install a custom ROM but I cannot install a working recovery and wanted the stock one. Sorry

Then you can root your phone 1st then backup your files to a computer and use migrate backup to backup app data. Note that migrate backup is limited to 4gb. Then do the fastboot flash i mentioned before

Why you are saying that you cannot install a working recovery, I don't know of any attempt you did to achieve it.
A stock recovery is not needed to install a custom ROM, and even you can't install a custom ROM using a stock recovery.
If you want to join, flashing your device and stuff like this, better learn how to use SPFT, also you have this tool https://github.com/bkerler/mtkclient, this can save your device, if something in the process goes wrong.

OK, then what you are trying to install is an "old" Android 10 based ROM, if this is the case, then just download a stock Android 10 ROM, flash it through SPFT, then use SPFT to flash the custom recovery, transfer the custom ROM to your external SD Card (preferably) or sideload it, through recovery, and flash it. In the process you need to unlock bootloader, and immediately to flash the custom recovery, boot to it, using hardware buttons.

Alright so, it might sound funny but I think I fixed it. I was playing with my downloaded recoveries until I downloaded the stock recovery, it is compatible but when I do fastboot reboot recovery I get stuck at Orange State for like 30min and it boots me into the recovery so does anyone know a solution for this? And thank you for everything and sorry for wasting y'all's time. Sincereley.

You have to boot to recovery using hardware buttons (PWR + vol. down), in regard to orange state, this is absolutely normal when bootloader was unlocked, it's not an issue but a cosmetic thing.
I DON'T KNOW WHO MADE THIS OR THE SOURCE CODE FOR THIS! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK
I stumbled upon this android 12-13 supported TWRP while looking at the PPUI Installation instructions, I have tested it on miui 13 and it works, I dont know about android 13 though.
If you don't trust me and want to download it for yourself, then go to PPUI installation instructions for merlinx, and tap on the blue S VENDOR RECOVERY link and it will take you to telegram, download it from there.
Edit: after reboot it got replaced by MIUI Recovery, I dont have magisk installed since I updated to 13 I havent installed it. this probably will not happen with magisk
is there any way to have the instructions? I found a video online with a recovery as this I did all the process but didn't work.

unlock bootloader
root your phone using magisk (instructions)
go into fastboot
flash this as recovery using "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (or something else if you renamed the file)
done
FYI you have to extract this from the zip first lmao

I don't think rooting process is required for this
I installed it without issues using "XiaoMiTool V2" and holding "volume up" before the cellphone reboots into TWRP.

it is for stock miui or else it will replace twrp with miui recovery
Tried flashing it, only getting a loop into recovery (black screen, other twrp works).
Might be because of MIUI 13? and android on 12
