Can miui official roms be flashed with twrp?

Can miui official roms be flashed with twrp? Or do they only flash on MI stock recovery?

If you have it as a zip for recovery than you can also flash it with twrp

Are you sure? Because I saw that someone said they are supposed to be used with MI stock recovery on miui forum. But it was just one guy...and I never saw anywhere that those roms provided by miui website could be flashed with twrp, that's why I asked. Have you tried that?

Yes, sure. I switch between miui 6 stable rom, miui 7 global beta rom and euphoria or cm roms almost every day

hello everyone,
how can I go back to MIUI ROM ? I want one message which I took backup using MIUI PC Suite. I was on CM12.1, copied 6.6.6.0 & 6.7.2.0 in my phone (for safety). I did clean for system, cache, dalvik-cache, data. Now when I'm trying to install 6.6.6 or 6.7.2 it's giving me error.
mount: failed to mount /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata at /data: Device or resource busy
mount: failed to mount /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system at /system: Device or resource busy
E: Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/Mi 4i ROMs/ Mi4i_Global_V6.6.6.0.LXIMICF.zip'
how can I achieve this ? am I doing something wrong ???
Please help me.

First wipe cache,data,dalvik,system and then reboot to recovery again then flash the miui rom wait for 10 min.

Whenever u switch from miui to any new custom rom , flash a patch 6.6.10.0 file .. u can avoid this error .. And then follow the usual process after flashing that patch file....

Rename your miui 6 in update.zip, then put in download_rom folder and make the update trought the miui updater.

Yes me too!!! But RR only. I tried RR but when it reaches the language screen it froze then turned off. Any Help?

first flash 6.x.x fastboot rom and then start flashing custom roms , its due to kernel issues

Flash Official MIUI with only Stock recovery, else it won't work!

1. Flash MIUI 6.6.10 or 5.6.11 using Fastboot/MiRecovery
2. Flash TWRP
3. Flash CM13 + GApps

My Phone cannot be flashed into any ROM except the original MIUI

I want to flash an RR into my Mi 4C. So I unlocked my bootloader by registering in Mi.com.
Firstly I flashed in a TWRP Rec
Code:
fastboot flash recovery ..../twrp.img
fastboot boot twrp.img
And successfully boot into rec.
Then I tried to install the ROM. After flashing it stuck on the Mi Logo every time.
Tried sideload and "install" by the TWRP but didn't work.

You can simply check your bootloader status by
fastboot oem device-info

Also select correct TWRP version for Mi4c, based on android version

TWRP selection is related to Android version? Could you please explain a little? When I was flashing my Nexus 6P I've never considered about Android version

After you flashed Nougat based Xiaomi rom, you can't boot on the older version of TWRP.
There is a new TWRP for nougat rom.
If you already flashed Nougat based Xiaomi rom, use the new version. You can find it in here https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/7-2-16-17.38651/

Nothing ever changed
I used this TWRP before.I flashed it in, boot the recovery, flashed in my ROM, checked clear Dalvik cache, pressed Reboot System.
The screen goes dark and never turned on. Press the power button only to realize it Reboot into bootloader.
Every time I reboot it reboot in Bootloader.
Plus I do a FULL wipe every time I flash in and did not work ?
UPDATE!! I flashed in a ROM in XIAOMI.EU and succeed.But why ???
Still failed in flashing in other ROMs

xiaomi.eu provides a modded MIUI. Maybe it's unofficial.
I got a weekly-update version and flashed it in and succeed.
It is MIUI 8

Most probably you mess up with old TWRP & Nougat 7.0 rom
You are welcome :good:

Thanks dude! It helps me a lot! I thought we need to install Nougat recovery before flashing Nougat rom!

I was on Miui 11, Pie, when i unlocked bootloader, after unlocking boot loader i flashed orange fox recovery and and flash miui pro 9.10.10 wich iss miui 11 pie based custom rom.
Now i was using this for some while now yesterday i found masik p rom which is android 10 and miui 12 based.
After flashing msik p my phone is only booting in recovery,
Now i tried another miui 12 based rom which is Rog edition for violet
And same problem again, Its just show xiaomi logo and then reboot to orange fox.
Now i tried another version of miui pro which is miui pro 20.3.4 this is android 10 based but its miui 11, and its working fine.
Now I'm just curious is there any thing i habe to do to run miui 12 roms on my phone as miui 11 based roms are working weather it is pie based or android 10. But When comes to miui 12 its not booting.
In YouTube i found some one saying format data after flashing miui 12 rom and i tried that to still no luck, Any one have faved same issue can share their experience and solution too. Thank You for reading this.

You dont have to wipe everything and it is REALLY risky because if the flashing process fails for any reason you will result with a hard-bricked phone, even twrp might get messed up. Flashing a new ROM will auto replace the partitions on its own

bootloop after downgrade android

hi.first of all I aplogize for my poor English.my poco x3 nfc was updated to miui 12.5.3 some weeks ago then i decide to roll it back to 12.0.4 Q which i did some mistakes and my phone got hard bricked.by mi authoriz account i flashed this version but from this day update to android 11 wasnt show on my phone so i decide to flash fastboot 12.5.4 .after that i decide to roll back again in 12.0.4Q (becuse of some nervy bugs) but i face to a problem.miflash flash complactly but my phone stuck on poco logo and reboot continuiosly.i tried to format data using twrp and stock recovery but it didnt solve anything.android 11 work but android 10 no

You should flash stock MIUI ROM with Mi tools and start from scratch
