Hallo,
I have a problem. I flashed newest TWRP 2.8.7.1 (I also tried 2.8.7.0) onmy Mi4C and installed some ROMS (sMiUI, Decato, CM12.1) but even if flash of TWRPs and installation of ROMS was successful without error, the device is always booting into Recovery/TWRP.
So problem is that device is not starting into system!
- I tried with power button reset
- I tried with "reboot to system"
- I tried with battery removal!
- I also tried new installation of TWRP and/or several ROMS. (e.g. sideloading ADP is also working)
- I also made some (full) WIPEs / Fix Permissions
but it is always starting only to TWRP.
After device is starting, MUI-symbol appears for 5-10 seconds and then TWRP is loading, but not ROM.
What can I do? Maybe installation a new Kernel or something?
thanks in advance,
Jimmy

Download fastboot rom and flash it
thank you that worked..
but I have still the problem when I flash several versions of TWRP, that a reboot/start of the system will always end up within the recovery.
Only a a reflash of fastboot rom helps, but then I have the old mi recovery that does not work for other ROMs :/
a strange behaviour.
So I can flash TWRP, but it is not possible to boot into the system...
Without a newer TWRP that can "boot into system" I cannot use Custom ROMS

Hallo,
I used some manuals for flashing.
e.g.
en.miui.com/thread-166465-1-1.html
gammerson.com/2015/10/install-twrp-recovery-mi4c-root-it.html
+ some manuals from decuro rom and sMiUI Rom
In summary:
1. Pre steps: Download USB & Adb drivers / Download TWRP Recovery 2.8.7.0 for Xiaomi Mi4C / I also tried 2.8.7.1
2. Flashing: Boot phone into fastboot --> Connect phone with USB (I tried before and after boot to fastboot) --> CMD --> "fastboot flash recovery" <recovery-name>.img
3. After successful flash of 40-50 MB TWRP recovery I tried CMD "fastboot reboot" / I tried also without reboot command (with Vol+ & Power) / I tried also only with power button
Always system boots to TWRP recovery.
When I choose ROM afterwards with new TWRP recovery and flash it, it says successful installed, but reboot does not start to ROM
At the moment I always do fastboot rom reflash, that old system will come back and work. Flashing ROMS with old system (via updater app and old Miui recovery) is not working, it is always update error, even if I rename ROM to "update.zip".
What I never did rooting the phone, so flashify says "device not rooted". I do not know If I have to root, I assume not. I do not want root, because I will use a company app that needs an unrooted phone.
thanks,
Jimmy

I have had the same issue, and read somewhere that it is because you tried flashing a rom in stock recovery and failed, that causes recovery bootloop. I was in same position other than i erased most og my partitions except recovery, and then installed fastboot rom, and it was all good again. Not saying ypu should erase any partitions! Rather not try and flash anything in stock recovery ever.

Thank you for your answer.
So I can do:
1. Wipe all data (it is the only option in recovery)
2. Re-flash fastboot rom
3. Try again to flash new recovery & install custom ROM
Is that correct?
What partition can I securely erase? and how? because erase is only possible with newer Recovery.

I would clean install fastboot rom, and then install the latest recovery, and try to install a rom. All from buttom so you know exactly what you have done
I accidentaly erased my partitions with fastboot. Data, boot, and internal ? I think. Would not recomend it.
Sorry, what exaclty is a fastboot rom and where do i get it?

I don't know what happens all the time.
Currently I used MiFlash to make a clean fastboot install. I choosed in MiFlash "flash_all.bat" to do it. (flash_all.bat means everything was reinstalled, also recovery.img). Afterwards everything was normal, MiRecovery 2.x and Mi4C MiUI 7 chinese version was installed without error. But after manual flashing TWRP with "fastboot flash recovery xxx", the recovery loop was again! :/
So AGAIN I made a clean fastboot install again with MiFlash application, but this time I REPLACED the recovery.img with the newest TWRP (renamed to recovery.img) within the fastboot rom installation folder "images". I could see that MiFlash flashed THIS! recovery.img, but after that again the old Mi Recovery was on the device and no TWRP. But why? I replaced the original recovery.img file! How can that happen?
The flash_all.bat included flashing recovery and I could confirm it during the fastboot flash. Strange.
I used fastboot rom libra_images_V7.0.16.0.LXKCNCI_20151104.0000.4_5.1_cn
MiFlash newest version and I tried with 2 TWRP versions (one from decuro and one from sMiUI)
Maybe my phone has a problem with flahing recoverys in general I don't know.

it sound very strange i did all these steps and my phone was all good after it. is it the newest recovery? the one with material theme and touch fix you are using? if not, then thats the only difference between your procedure and mine :/
i hope you can fix it
Edit: I can see that i have the following fastboot roms downloaded, so i used one of these:
libra_images_V7.0.6.0.LXKCNCI_20150917.0000.1_5.1_cn_4dd76a55cb.tgz
or libra_images_V7.0.15.0.LXKCNCI_20151104.0000.4_5.1_cn_f6e955ee14.tgz
What I would do, is fastboot original ROM, reboot to recovery, factory reset, recboot to fastboot to re-flash TWRP and then command "fastboot boot recovery" to get to TWRP and install your ROM.
Didn't has this pb on Mi4c, but had it a few times on Nexus5.
Hope this helps...
Hello, don't know if applicable. I've read on mi forums that dev Roms need dev recovery, that's different from twrp for stock rom.....

Hi everyone,
I recently installed Nougat on my hiaeuhl device, so I'm unrooted. I would very much like to root it, so my plan is to install twrp then flash a SuperSU from TWRP.
The problem is that I can't boot into the TWRP recovery. I do the normal process
Check the device -> adb devices
reboot into download mode -> adb reboot download
Flash the recovery -> mflashboot flash recovery twrp.img
Reboot -> mflashboot reboot
I then get the message, written in red, that I can't boot into the recovery. I tried this with multiple TWRP versions (2.8.6, 2.8.7, 3.0.2, 3.0.4) but to no avail. Finally I gave up and flashed a stock recovery image, which works.
My questions:
- is there any way I can flash the SuperSu without TWRP?
- Is there any way I can make my phone boot with TWRP, so I can flash the SuperSu?
Thanks and cheers

Solution found. Worked with this! https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862703763
Hello guys,
I'm having trouble trying to install a Custom ROM (Tresk Mod, but I get it with others too)
So basically some days ago my whole Internal Storage got encrypted so I had to a full wipe.
From there I decided to use Msmtools just in case, so I got back to OOS 5.1.5 from there I updated to OOS 9.0.5 via OTA and unlock the bootloader and install TWRP everything works fine.
But when I tried to install any custom ROM I either cannot boot and just boots to Bootloader (Not even the recovery works) and I get "Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error" which I can fix fastboot flashing all the partitions...
Or I straight get a black screen with the White Notifications LED whenever I try to boot either to system or recovery and from there I can only recover using Msmtools...
So I'm now asking, what are the steps for flashing Custom ROMs now?? Because seems like I'm doing something wrong since I'm ending having a Bricked device...
try to flash rom with bluespark recovery
Nothing changed that I'm aware of, but I found that I'll have the same experience if I try to root before booting the system at least once rootless first. Also, I have issues like that whenever I keep TWRP (even Blu Spark) installed. Now I only use it via sideload every time. I never have issues anymore.

I did the following:
1. Upgraded from 5.1.5 to 9.0.5 (Since I was coming from Msmtools fix)
2. Unlock bootloader
3. Reboot to system and then boot again to bootloader for doing (fastboot boot TWRP.xxx.img)
4. Once in the recovery flash recovery and Magisk (just because) and back to system (where everything was working perfectly)
5. Rebooted to recovery and did the following:
Factory Reset (The one that you slide which should wipe Cache, Dalvik and Data)
Flashed the ROM (HavocOS 2.5) and right after that TWRP
And at this point I tried to reboot back to recovery but black screen and cannot boot to recovery nor system not even via fastboot
Is your order different? Am I missing something?

You have to install twrp.zip again after havoc, boot Back Into Recovery and then gapps and magisk

Agreed. Always reboot from recovery to recovery after flashing a new one (TWRP). THEN, go ahead and flash gapps and magisk.

I finally figured it out
The problem was that as I was updating via OTA OOS 9.0.5 was only installed in one Slot so I need to install it in the other as well.
Did the following process:
1. Boot to Bootloader and do "fastboot boot TWRP.img"
2. From there flash TWRP.zip and Reboot back to it (Recovery)
3. Flash OOS Latest (9.0.5)
4. Flash TWRP
5. Reboot to TWRP
6. Flash OOS Latest (9.0.5)
7. Flash TWRP
8. Reboot to TWRP
9. Wipe data, dalvik cache
10. Flash ROM
11. Flash TWRP
12. Reboot to TWRP
13. Flash gapps + Misc (Magisk, etc)
14. Boot system
Technically just one 1 installation should do as the other slot was already populated but the twice just to be safe.
Hi
I have problems to install LineageOS on my new OnePlus6. I tried to install LineageOS with the guide on https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/enchilada/install. If I follow the guide exactly step by step no OS is starting and I can't boot into recovery because (I think) twrp isn't installed (just black screen with blue led). But also if I first boot twrp with fastboot boot 'twrp.img' and after install the twrp.zip, no OS is starting after sideload or flash the 'lineageos.zip'. I think, the install doesn't finish correct. In the terminal on my debian I can see, that the installprocess ends at 47%. But I'm not really shure if this is the problem and if it is, how I can solve it. Probably in this thread the same problem is described: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/help/lineage-doesnt-boot-black-screen-light-t3958351 Unfortunately no solution is available in the thread.
Now I flashed the stockrom (https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-6-t3796665) and have done all updates but don't know how I can install twrp and after LineageOS. I hope somebody can help me. Thanks
Do you have the latest ADB version? Instead of sideloading you can try just transferring the zip files (with e.g. "adb push lineageos.zip /sdcard/") and then installing directly from TWRP.
Make sure you do all the wipes / formats mentioned in the guide. Transfer and flash the lineageos.zip. Then directly after you should flash the twrp.zip Then reboot back into recovery and flash Magisk / Gapps etc if needed. Then finally reboot to system.
Also read this guide if you haven't already as it explains a lot about how flashing ROMs on OnePlus 6 is different to many other older phones.
Hi and thank you makeyourself
I tried the following steps:
1. starting fastboot
2. fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-2-enchilada.img -> twrp starting up
3. adb push twrp-installer-3.3.1-2-enchilada.zip /sdcard/ -> transfer ok
4. adb push lineage-16.0-20190922-nightly-enchilada-signed.zip /sdcard/ -> transfer ok
5. in twrp Wipe -> Format Data
6. in twrp Advanced Wipe -> System
7. in twrp install lineage-16.0-20190922-nightly-enchilada-signed.zip
8. in twrp install twrp-installer-3.3.1-2-enchilada.zip
9. reboot to recovery
After this steps I got the same problem as before. Before the reboot to recovery, twrp showed the message "no OS installed". So I think, the zip weren't installed correctly. Now, I have the black screen with the blue led. Can you find out what I did wrong?
Edit: Now, I can't also boot twrp. Also if I do a fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-2-enchilada.img nothing happens.
Fastboot to twrp (newest blu spark should be fine, or black twrp)
Flash twrp zip
Reboot to twrp
Wipe data, cache.
Flash recommended oos
Flash twrp
Reboot to twrp
Flash recommended twrp (yes...... Again)
Flash twrp (yes... Again, recovery is lost after rom Flash ALWAYS)
Reboot to twrp
Flash LOS or any other custom rom
Flash twrp (rom Flash, so twrp is lost like I said)
Reboot to twrp
Flash magisk (IF ypu want magisk)
Flash gapps (IF ypu want gapps)
Flash kernel (IF I like to run another custom kernel)
Boot
Enjoy
Thank you whizeguy, I'll try this. But just one question about "Flash recommended oos". Which OxygenOS can I flash (this full OTA? https://www.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6-oneplus-6t-oxygenos-9014-906/) and why I have to do this? Sorry if it is a bad question.
You Flash The oxygen OS version that is recommended in Los thread, simple as that.
You have an a/b device, vendor partition (could be other files needed aswell, not 100 % sure) is needed to Flash custom, IF you did Amy research you'd finns some good info. Also for faster answers in The future: post your issue in the thread for LOS, that way you would get help from People Who uses it, knows The exact version you should use and what not
Hey whizeguy, thank you very much. Everything works perfect now. But why for heaven's sake do I have to flash oos and why the guide on the LineageOS site don't tell me this way?
Wow idk what happened here. Mistakenly replied to this thread. Apologies.
i don't know how else to describe this, i was flashing a custom ROM, then flashed magisk and now my phone is stuck in bootloop unable to go to recovery or system, the phone boots then black screen, etc etc, the same goes for recovery except it is faster (i reflashed recovery and it still happens) unable to do basically anything other than stay in fastboot mode.
what should i do?
edit 1: i can reboot to recovery and only be able to access shell.
Enter fastboot and flash recovery again. Brigudav's TWRP is the most used one. Gringo80's TWRP is new but seems to be working as others have written. (Both are unofficial and a take or leave, we don't have their source code, unfortunately.)
Right after flashing reboot to RECOVERY (not system). Can do with fastboot command or by holding button as usual. Alternative: reboot to recovery image file itself.
Once in recovery, format data (the option that has to type "yes" ). Reboot to RECOVERY again. Wipe cache, dalvik.
Reboot to system. Probably will work if your custom ROM was flashed properly.
Otherwise you can do everything again and also reflash ROM.
EDIT: I missed the Magisk part. So, while in recovery, dirty flash same custom ROM again. Or alternative: rename the Magisk file to uninstall.zip and flash it....this will restore your original boot and completely clean Magisk.
After you properly booting to system, then you can again try install Magisk.
why does flashing TWRP and booting to it directly work? i don't know! but it worked!
it seems that the custom ROM i installed is probably corrupt and flashed anyway ( i reflashed dirty/clean to make sure ) thanks for your help.
