HELP. Redmi Note 3 stuck in BOOTLOOP after installing Custom ROM - General Questions and Answers

Hey guys, this is my first time here, sorry in advance if I say something wrong or anything.
I just unlock my Redmi Note 3 (SD 650 variant) bootloader via the unofficial way (the miflash tool way, without permissions from xiaomi).
It was done, I already checked the oem unlock status via command prompt, and then I was able to flash TWRP via fastboot.
Then I did a complete wipe of my device through TWRP, and flashed Resurrection Remix and GAPPS.
At first I was getting error 7 and error 6 everytime I flashed the rom, but I managed to fix that through some readings.
The problem is that, I always stuck in bootloop (the RR boot screen).
I tried with LineAge OS, because at first I thought it was a ROM issue, and the same thing happened: it stuck in bootloop (the LineAge OS boot screen in this case).
The step I did was :
TWRP 3.1.1-0 ---> Wipe ---> Swipe to Factory Reset ---> Install ROM and Gapps ---> Wipe Dalvik Cache ---> Reboot System
Note: I also tried without the Wipe Dalvik step before rebooting, same result.
Another thing I tried was :
TWRP 3.1.1-0 ---> Wipe ---> Advanced Wipe ---> then I select "Dalvik/ART cache", "System", "Data", and "Cache" ---> Swipe to Wipe ---> Install ROM, Gapps ---> Wipe Dalvik Cache ---> Reboot System
Note: I tried this one without the Wipe Dalvik aslo, same result.
This phone is my daily driver, so can anyone please educate me on what's happening?
(Yes I know it's not good for beginners to do this by himself on his daily driver, but in the past I have rooted and install custom ROM on my Galaxy S3 Mini...that's why I was a bit confident -.- )
Thanks in advance, I hope I get an answer here.

[Q] Problem With Flashing SCH-I535

The very first ROM I tried to flash was a version of CarbonRom. I was unsuccessful, as i got the installation aborted message. I then tried a couple of other lesser know ones, with the same luck. Lastly I tried CM 10.1, and with that, i had success. It was the only one that would work so far. Yesterday, I downloaded DU 4.2.2, and A new nightly version of Carbon (Specifically for my phone) With no luck of installation. Am i doing something wrong with these? Is there a different method of flashing i'm missing?
what is the procedure you take to install?
I usually go this route:
1) Boot into whatever recovery you have
2) Wipe Cache/Davlik
3) Install custom ROM
4) run a factory reset
5) Reboot

I have Philz custom recovery which based on cwm version 6.0.3.7 which when you tap wipe data you will then have the option to clean install for new ROM.

Sorry for not replying earlier, i never got a notification. I'm using the most recent version of CWM. My usual order is :
1. Boot into recovery
2. Factory Reset
3. Clear Cache Partition
4. Wipe Dalvik
5. Format /system
6. Mount /system
7. Flash new ROM

well we now have 3 custom recoveries to choose from I like the newer one since I can install a new ROM in fewer steps.
i would do a factory reset after you flash your rom too, can't hurt.
of course on updating the same ROM, I only Wipe Cache/Davlik and that's it.
Bad download? Does the md5 match?
after making sure you wiped everything make sure the download itself was proper I am running it flawless right now

The boot-loop happened few days after installing the Arrow OS [Pie]. Below is the link from where I installed the same.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/unofficial-arrow-os-bacon-t3836884
I've tried the following things till now:
1. Tried "Advanced Wipe" via TWRP (only dalvik cache and other cache)
2. Tried "Restore" the back up I had saved for old OS (RR Oreo OS)
3. Tried "Advanced Wipe" via TWRP (wiped everything including system and installed RR Oreo OS again)
4. Tried Flashing CM Stock ROM (cm-13.1.2-ZNH2KAS3P0-bacon-signed-fastboot_64GB) - Currently, my phone is on this ROM.
Please help me on this.

Tried that. not working. Also if its relevent system, vendoe, etc are not mounted. only data, cache, and microsd is mounted. Have no idea why.
Me too faced this kind of issue, peter's TWRP worked for me, follow instructions from here
Ok It worked. No need to flash the dm Verity for orange recovery. What I did was simple.
1. Factory reset (Did this step before also)
2. Format Data (Also Did this step)
3. Flash rom (Of course did this too)
4. Then reboot to RECOVERY again, not to system. (did not do this step before). Go to reboot part and click reboot to recovery, not to system.
5. After that reboot to system and it should work. Mine did.
Solved
I to had same problem but mine worked after installing custom ROM install FCrypt disabler.zip from recovery then reboot and enjoy.
Download FCrypt disabler.zip for Redmi note 7 Pro from Google.
Flash any zip which disables dm verity things. Suggestion: flash lazyflasher zip.

Problems flashing Roms

can anyone please help me?
anyone? please?
first install OOS 10 on both slots (i have open beta 4)..than boot to OOS 10, not setup! Then boot TWRP and factory reset, not FORMAT DATA!!! Then reboot TWRP and install ROM, TWRP, reboot, install Gapps and Magisk (optional)

hello mate
and when i install Rom, do i need to install on both slots or i can have one has backup (its what i have been doing till now)?
and when i factory reset, what will i lose?
Well, it is difficult to say. Usually, every ROM has its thread, its instructions and its community that helps with problems related to installing that ROM.
It could be a few things:
1) I do not see any mention about wiping data. Usually you need to wipe data and wipe system partition in twrp before you install a new ROM. Maybe that is the issue. However, what you need to wipe is ROM specific.
2) Check prerequisites, what ROM version you need to be running before you flash. Sometimes that matters.
3) OnePlus 6 has these A/B slots that I do not fully understand. From what I have read, if you are running on slot A, update installs on slot B, and then you reboot to slot B and cycle continues. BUT DO NOT TRUST ME ON THIS. You should read yourself. Anyway, sometimes people recommend flashing both slots A and B. For some ROMs. For LineageOS, for example, that is not necessary.
oh, factory reset damn i would want to configure everything again
I think first.
You have to WIPE data, all. Factory wipe option.
Then boot into twrp
First, flash OOS, followed by TWRP
Reboot to Recovery using twrp itself.
And then again flash OOS and TWRP.
Reboot to recovery again (using the option in twrp itself)
Finally, then install your rom followed by gapps etc etc
Then it should work....
is there anyway to do this without factory reset?
no

[Solved] Help to flash custom ROMs

Hello everybody,
I bought a Oneplus 7 Pro a few days ago and I'm preparing it for my daily usage. It's my fourth Android smartphone, and the third Oneplus. So far, I managed to flash everyone of them, with no major issues.
And then, the Oneplus 7 Pro suddenly appeared
I used this tutorial to unlock the bootloader and flash the custom recovery.
From my understanding, the custom recovery is flashed in the Recovery Ramdisk and available for both A & B slots.
For now, I have A and B slots with stock OSS, unlocked bootloader, custom recovery and Magisk. All of this is working.
There began my problems. I want to flash a custom ROM without Gapps and I fail to do it. All instructions around ROM threads seems different to me, I don't get the thing about A & B slots, when I flash one rom, it boots as usual on the stock ROM, if I flash both slots, It causes bootloops and if I manage to launch the recovery, my internal storage isn't detected and I can't restore any backup.
I already used MSMDownload to restore the phone completely once.
Can somebody explain to my dumb person how to do it proprely ? Thanks in advance ! :fingers-crossed:
TL;DR : I fail to flash a custom ROM and make it work.
Yes I had same issues when rooted, it means you lost root. You can try tool all in one to flash recovery and magesik via fastboot. If that doesn't restore your access, on twrp you will have to type in format, then mount, then add rom to storage(this method wipes everything beware)

For now, my phone is working nicely. But that's the process of flashing a new ROM that fails. Recovery and Magisk are already and working.

Thanks, I will try.
When you flash the ROM, does TWRP tell you that if you want to continue you need to reboot recovery ? If so, do you ? Do you reboot recovery on the same slot, or do you flash both ?

Nope, it doesnt tell you anything. Just reboot recovery from reboot menu. Don't touch the slot options
Thanks for your advices.
I'm trying right now, here's my steps :
- Wipe Data, Cache, Dalvik Cache (the standard Factory Reset)
- Install ROM : TWRP logs show that he's flashing on inactive slot A, then B. After that logs said " To flash additional zips, please reboot recovery to switch to the updated slot ". I'm going back on the menu
- Install TWRP Installer like previously
- Reboot Recovery : TWRP ask me if I want to install the TWRP App, I dismiss. After reboot of the recovery, it asks if I want to keep System Read Only, I swipe to allow modifications
- Wipe Data : Can't do it because TWRP is unable to mount storage. And after further investigations, I'm now on slot A, not B as before.
- Reboot recovery to slot B
- Wipe Data on slot B
- Reboot system
And It still booting on the stock Oxygen OS Rom, not the custom one installed before. I'm lost
The problem is that you are not performing factory reset.
Wipe data is not enough,you gotta go to wipe-format data-enter yes and swipe.
That is why you are getting bootloops and twrp unable to mount storage problem.
A/B is pretty simple.
You got two slots for many partitions like system vendor boot and all,but a single data partition.
Flash a rom from one slot,it always gets flashed to the other slot no matter what.So next time you reboot to recovery or system it's gonna be on the other slot.So here is the problem..one rom cannot decrypt data which was initially encrypted by another rom..so you gotta perform a data format instead of wipe.Thats it.

Well yes, I didn't understood the difference between Wipe and Format Data.
So let's resume :
Unlock Bootloader
Advanced -> Install Recovery Ramdisk : Install TWRP
Install -> Flash TWRP Installer
Install -> Flash Magisk
Reboot -> System : Reboot on stock OxygenOS Rooted
Then
Wipe -> Factory Reset : Wipe Data, Cache and Dalvik Cache, that means you just have to swipe on TWRP.
Install -> Flash ROM : Use the install function and install the ROM
Install -> Flash TWRP Installer : Don't reboot, go back and install as the previous step
Reboot -> Recovery : Reboot TWRP and it automatically load the other slot
Wipe -> Format Data : Click and type yes
Reboot -> System : Just reboot and it should load the installed ROM
is wiping internal storage compulsory?

How would you do it ? This is an open discussion, I can't find one and only way of doing it
aaryan45 said:

Not wiping.. formatting..that is compulsory if your current data is encrypted
After multiple tries to verify the process :
Wipe -> Factory Reset + : Wipe Data, System, Cache and Dalvik Cache
Install -> Flash ROM : Use the install function and install the ROM
Install -> Flash TWRP Installer : Don't reboot, go back and install as the previous step
Reboot -> Recovery : Reboot TWRP and it automatically load the other slot
Wipe -> Format Data : Click and type yes
Reboot -> System : Just reboot and it should load the installed ROM
Install -> Magisk
Reboot -> System
Install -> Whathever you want
Reboot -> System
It worked !
