Because Manu11 didn't update his thread about the toolkit. I decided to post this to help Mi 4i users that got into trouble with TWRP unable to flash dh.harald's CM12.1
FEATURES
-Root (MIUI only, CM users can enable Root in Developer Options) Working on MIUI7 (thanks to @ss.suryakant95 for testing this out)

DOWNLOAD
(Some users had problems unzipping this ZIP with WinRAR, consider using free alternatives such as 7-zip)
MAIN URL: Click here to download (Please use this download, but if in any case you can't extract, you may use the mirror I provided.)
MIRROR: Click here to download.
HOW-TO
1. Enable Developer Options (Tap MIUI version 7 times in About Phone), and then in Developer Options, enable USB debugging.
2. Have you downloaded the ZIP? No? Download it, now.
3. Extract the downloaded ZIP wherever you like, keep in mind that all files must be kept together.
4. Connect your phone to the PC.
5. Run the Start.bat file.
ATTENTION: Please do a ROOT (I'll assume you're still in MIUI) before you flash TWRP, or you may be brought back into stock recovery. (Thanks to @omerjerk for testing this)
---
UPDATE: This toolkit's TWRP is deprecated (download the newest version here), but if you don't want to hassle with downloading another fastboot driver, you can still download dh.harald's recovery .img file, and copy your downloaded recovery to the extracted toolkit folder, then change dh.harald's recovery filename into twrp.img (UNTESTED)
I'll repack this toolkit with dh.harald's newest TWRP whenever possible.
---
This toolkit is made by magdag, all credits goes to him.

I can't speak for magdag, the dev. So, this is literally the version that is usable for flashing TWRP.
I don't expect any official support for TWRP. And I prefer CWM, if there's one.

Backup everything (all partitions) except the first in the list.
You may want to use the compression.
The backup should be somewhere between 3.5GB and 5.5GB depending on the options and the data.
You could install ROM Manager (from Koushik Dutta) from the Play Store.
Choose the TWRP as recovery and Unknown Device as device.
Then you can use this to backup with TWRP and it will choose the right options for you.

Just Google it. Seriously. Or go to MIUI Forums and see the options you got there, there should be plenty of MIUI Fastboot ROM since 6.5.6

Both root and twrp
I've MiUi 6.6.10 on my device.
I used this toolkit to flash twrp but I'm not able to do so.
Whenever I select the 2 option, it flashes the recovery successfully. But, when I boot to recovery again using adb reboot recovery, I get the stock recovery and not twrp.
What I'm doing wrong ?
P.S. I haven't rooted the phone yet.

It worked after root.
I think it should be added in the main post that root is required.

Will this work?
uhhh... not sure about this mate. There is no TWRP 2.7.0.5 for this model, then I don't believe you can mount USG OTG with TWRP.
Did you test this mytohn ?

Hi, can you be more specifict on the flash process.
So you flash the ROM from USB GTO.
Then wipe cache/dalvid cache
Then flash boot.img
Also, is that normal that when right after i flashed the rom, and shutdown the phone, its say no OS installed?
Can you upload the rom again?
Hey, can you re upload the ROM and what HBOOT do you need, will it work on 2.21?
Thanks

The link for the rom is halfway down the first page of this post' no need to upload it, it don't matter what hboot your on as the link to OP has link for rom for hboot pre 2.22 and another member has put up links for a modded version on the last pages of OP for hboot 2.22 and above. just make sure you download a twrp recovery that supports your partition layout (your hboot will give you and idea) I gather you have an OTG cable or a dual flash drive USB.
Everything and every answer you need is in these forms...you just have to read! That's how I managed to give yo this answer in under 10min of searching.
Hi there,
I got a HTC One mini. I bought an USB OTG and installed TWRP v2.7.1.2. I can see the USB OTG under "Mount" but I can't mount it. "adb sideload file-name.zip" is also not working.
Please advice.
Thanks.
What may be?

Hello to everybody!
All these things are OK:
1. Unlock device with Unlock Bootloader
2. Download ROM and Copy to Flash Drive
3. Flash recovery TWRP 2.7.0.5
But when I try flashing ROM "m4kk_4.4.2_3.10.401.4_root-odex.zip" from "Install" I get what you can see in attacked image.
Flashing lasts only three seconds. When I reboot, I get loop booting.
What I can do?
Thank for all
Help!
Hello, I have an htc one mini in state like the one in the picture (first post) stuck in bootloader (tampered, unlocked, s-on).
The only difference is that ''OS-'' section is empty!!!
I've flashed this recovery: twrp-2.7.0.5-m4kk.img using adb and then flashed this rom: m4kk_4.4.2_3.10.401.4_root-odex.zip as it is mentioned.
Everything went well and phone started in 4.4.2! Almost everything... Once I had opened the data (3g/4g) everything messed up (lag lag lag)!
I've tried to reboot via power button and after restart I stuck again to bootloader.
I've decided to flash the rom once again. This decision was harsh...
Flashing procedure never completed succesfully (interrupted by reboot) and from then till now in recovery mode the touch screen is not responding, the touch buttons neither!
So, I cannot flash nothing!
Please help me! Thanks in advance!
Thanks for the ROM!, everything went ok!
[BTW, I used Philz Recovery and also works, and got the ROM from Mega]

I have tested it on the xt1023 but from what i am told it should work on all models because supersu.zip is universal and same with TWRP if i am not mistaken.
doesn't reboot into recovery
Everything seems ok during the process but when the phone reboots it stays in the Motorola logo/Android screen, never moving on to TWRP. This also happened when I tried the normal Fastboot method. Bootloader is unlocked and usb debugging is checked, of course.
Any ideas?
edit:
More info-
1. The only command that seems to work on my phone is when I install stock recovery.
2. When I go into bootloader and try to restart in any mode but normal restart I get a blank screen
3. I previously bricked my phone by doing something stupid so I reflashed one of the factory firmwares-
RETUAWS_XT1023_4.4.2_KXC20.82-15_cid9_CFC.xml
Could this be the source of my problem?
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
Thanks for your script, mate...just used it for SuperSu installation and made the rest by other way, but worked flawlessly for that, and that's the point !!! :good:

Hey guys. My little brother just got a Moto E, and I'm trying to get it rooted/Recovery'd.
I'm using your toolkit, but so far, no luck. Doesn't want to root, nor install recovery. It's stuck on "waiting for device".
I don't know what's wrong. I checked that USB debugging was on, and he unlocked his bootloader earlier. Everything should be fine.
But, it doesn't work.
Could someone provide some help, please ?
Thanks.
Did you extract the zip to your desktop? And are the right drivers installed also try using a different USB cable or port.

challenge excepted LOL Moto E Super Tool
Your Option 4 isnt going to happen
For those who are having a hard time flashing TWRP using a PC, I just wanna share it to you guys! I have tested this myself on my Mi-4c
Note: This will not might not work if you are using stable/dev rom version 6.14 or higher due to locked bootloader. Please unlock your bootloader first
Requirements:
Mi-4c device
Full Developer ROM pack for our phone ( make sure you install GApps too)
TWRP image (TWRP 2.8.7.1 with English and Chinese V2 & V3)
TWRP Recovery 2.8.7.0 Dev ROM (Most Stable)
Flashify App
**And of course, courage and common sense
Disclaimer: Don't blame me if you brick your device, do it at your own risk.
1. Download a developer ROM from the official download page: Click Here or use this Developer ROM [/B]Note: This method might not work if you are using dev rom version 6.14 or higher due to locked bootloader. Please unlock your bootloader first[/B]
2. Flash the Developer ROM from the updater app and install GApps of course. Now, you should have root access on your phone.
3. Download the flashable TWRP zip from the original thread or below - Original TWRP Thread --- Thanks to 油炸包子-
TWRP Recovery 2.8.7.0 Dev ROM (Most stable especially for touch issues)
TWRP V2 Dev ROM Only
TWRP V3 Dev ROM or Stable
4. Open the TWRP .zip or .7z file you downloaded using an Archiver app or ES Explorer and you will find a recovery.img inside.
4.1 Extract the recovery.img to the root of your SDCard (you can rename it to anything you like just make sure the extension stays as .img)

It shouldn't be like that, but that's how it is right now. I'm not sure if there's any fix available, but I guess an updated version of the recovery will be released soon, that has this problem fixed..
Yeah this method works I have done it and easy as drinkin beer

Same here. Tested and working. I am on Mokee rom now.
Thanks for the guide but I found something wierd happening. After succesfully flashing twrp and rebooting it goes in twrp when I restart after that and try to go in recovery with volume up +power it takes me to stock recovery? Any ideas??:/
So version 3 works without any touch problems?

I'm using the v3 linked in this thread and the touch problem still exists. I have to wait 2-3 minutes before it works.
I tested the 2.8.7.0 version from miui.com and touch screen worked immediately. I'm not sure if it was just lucky or not, because I only tested it once. Maybe worth trying it and see how it works?
It'd weird because the one I have some times freezes and some times doesn't

Just reflash TWRP then reboot to TWRP, it should ask you if you want to either use it as read only or allow modification, select allow modification. Hope that helps.
Yes with the modded version on xiaomi.eu the touch works!

Works great, was a fun night of figuring this out together glad it worked out! Everything is functioning properly!
Just remember when you first load into TWRP you will need to go to wipe > format data and type yes.
This will erase all data so be sure to backup all your personal files to your SD card using the phone before you format. Then proceed to use the above instructions!
I got it flashed successfully and can get to it but it's asking for a decrypt password. I never set one up, so I'm not sure what to do. I still tried to format but it gives an error about inability to mount.
Edit - even with the error, it still has me set up Android again but it still wants a decrypt password and I can't mount.

Its normal. look at the other threads for twrp they always say to format the data after a reboot. Maybe add it to your tutorial thingy.

Thank you for this! Once my sata cables come in the mail and I get my Windows copy up and running on my second hard drive I need to create an ISO .img from the KDZ file you gave me. Need to get my phone back to stock, and im thankful you guys got TWRP working on this great phone.
Create a IMG from kdz? Don't you just use the kdz in lg up or something to reflash?

That sounds like allot less pain in the ass. Can you give me a quick breakdown of how to reset into stock using the KDZ. Dont need go type paragraps or anything just a brief summary this is all new to me.
Heres a tutorial. Its made for the aristo 1 but im sure it should work with the aristo 2. Use the lg up program.here
Just make sure to use the kdz made for the aristo 2 that you already have.
Forgot you may need uppercut aswell. here sometimes it gives a error which uppercut fixes.
Has anyone tried any other cameras with this phone? I was thinking of trying to flash CameraNext or SnapDragon but I've never tried either on a stock rom, so I'm not sure whether I'd bootloop.

I am trying to find good camera apps for this phone because the stock one is not that good. I will try those two that you have just posted.

I've tried finding other LG camera apps but none would work. Let me know how CameraNext works (if it does).
OpenCamera is giving me terrible quality.
Bacon Camera seems ok.
Google Camera is ok, but limited.
That's all I've tried. I know this camera should be capable of some good pictures.
Edit - I found an APK only install for CameraNextMod v10. This might be the best we can get with this camera unless the zip versions are compatible. Here's a link https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aLdiT1B2TcDFL0vfcmwYz6L7EdxqgFKj/view?usp=sharing

So, I just went back into TWRP for the first time since and it's still asking for a password to decrypt. I don't want to wipe everything again. Any ideas? Nothing is mounted and I can't mount without the password.

This is a tutorial on how to manually update a red magic 7pro Chinese rom to Global rom. (tested-working)
This should work the other way around as well (global to chinese). (untested)
This should also work on other model red magic phones. (untested)
Software needed:
7zip - https://www.7-zip.org/
Step 1: download latest global rom from red magic
https://help.redmagic.gg/hc/en-us/articles/6360319907865-REDMAGIC-7-Pro
Step 2: Right click on the downloaded global rom and open with 7zip
after opening in 7zip you will have to edit the payload_properties.txt file
{
"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"
}
double click the payload_properties.txt file to open it in notepad
Now you will have to remove the _un
once you remove the _un you have to click file/save.
it should look like this after saving the file.
Now close the file and it will ask you to update the .zip file. click OK
Step 3: Now copy the updated .zip rom to the root drive of your phone.
Step 4: on your phone go into the settings/system update/
click the 3 dots in the upper right hand corner and click local update.
Select the new global rom you just put in your root directory and install.
Step 5: Do not click the reboot after the update is finished. Instead hold down power button and power off.
once the device is powered off hold the volume up and power to boot into recovery.
Wipe / factory data reset.
reboot to new rom.
Couple of notes:
if you do click the reboot after installing the rom, i think everything will be ok. you will just have to power off the phone and reboot into recovery (power button/volume up) as stated above to wipe.
I think this will work for any version of the rom (global/jap/chinese/uk) as long as you edit to the correct country code in the payload_properties.txt file
Thanks for the tutorial CUKIO34.
I will loose root after wiping data and factory reset ?

I do not know, I originally performed this modified rom update on a unrooted phone.
Hello !
Here a mirror link for the firmware (v414): https://mega.nz/file/Lpgl2DoB#rANR7S_k35xfgm4gr4mp1mJsG-wFdpggx6m124s4MuI

To those trying to Switch from CN Rom to Global ROM, please re-consider. I just tried it yesterday and it was successful but very unstable. my phone just bricked FYI
The flashing went smoothly but after wiping data, the device is bootlooping...
I've been using the global rom now for 10 days with no issues. Are you guys using method of pressing the power button + volume up to enter recovery to wipe?
I'm using the 3.14 USA global rom.
Someone posted a link to the Europe 4.14.

Was your phone previously rooted?
Can you get to the recovery using the power/ volume up?

once you reach recovery wipe data and factory reset. It should boot into the new rom if you loaded it correctly.
for my case it doesnt show wipe data and factory, it boots back to fastboot mode each time i reboot.
i ran the boot.img from cmd via fastboot already still no luck.
Let me know if i missed out any steps. my usb debugging is disabled and i cant inject any zip through ADB
My device had been bricked for one month after trying this tutorial. Fortunately I was able to bring it back to life. I just converted the Payload file of the CN Rom into .img files. Then I flashed my device in fastboot mode using the commands that I put in a .bat file. Feel free to DL the folder and try if you are in the same mess I used to be.https://mega.nz/file/tFQUzAzT#_SWNRdVyxIueOl__V4Jxh_P-3IKufw52LMalhTr1b3Q
