try this in terminal(if you use linux)
"tar cvf mykernel.tar boot.img"
don't forget to cd to directory of the boot.img file.

Just use official tar for Windows.
You can't flash an img file in Odin needs to be tar or md5 file. 7zip tars don't work but that does.

Hi
What is the difference between a flashable zip and a .img file for installing twrp?
I found an unofficial twrp and they listed a .img file and a flashable zip.
The img one is no longer available but inside the flashable zip there's a .img file. Can I take out the img file and flash that?
I don't need a detailed response all I need is a yes or no.
Thanks
(link to the twrp if you're wondering)

Yeah go ahead and flash the recovery.img file thats your twrp recovery
after the latest apdate 13.0.3 i lose my magisk
and when i want to install it using adb it gives me a boot loop and i shoold to flash the original boot.img
Nb : ramdisk yes
Uninstall it thn flash it using Twrp
twrp can't read internal storage
but when i use the memory card then i click install the recovery restart directly
also by using adb the installation fail in 3%

First flash the original boot image into your phone and make sure your phone can boot after you flash the original boot image.
fastboot flash Magisk-patched-boot.img
Patched boot image can be made on another phone.

This is what i did
The original boot run finely but the patched one give me a boot loop
Miui 13 doesn't support yet unless you patch the boot img. Just revert to 12.5.9

The safe way is to not flash boot image with TWRP or Orangefox custom recoveries. Flash with fastboot mode with PC is better to prevent issue.
What version of Magisk?
If you are using the latest Magisk v24.X but it bootloop, you may report issue to Magisk author in his github.
If you used Magisk v23, it is said not working on Android 12, so will not work on MIUI 13.
1. Download stock MIUI rom.
2. Extract two files: boot.img and vbmeta.img.
3. Compress the two files to a TAR file, like: boot_and_vbmeta.tar
4. Copy the TAR file to the device.
5. Open magisk app.
6. Choose "Install magisk to file" and select the TAR file. It will create the file magisk_patched.tar
7. Copy the magisk_patched.tar file to the PC.
8. Extract magisk_patched.tar to get boot_patched.img and vbmeta_patched.img
9. Enter in fastboot in device.
10. Flash boot_patched.img and vbmeta_patched.img to the device:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot_patched.img
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta_patched.img
