How to create a TWRP flashable ROM from stock

Does anyone know how to create a flashable TWRP rom (.ZIP) from the stock Nougat ROM?
I have already installed TWRP and I really would like to have a ROM ready to be flashed in case of problems...
The other system is really slow and not intuitive in my opinion.
Thanks.

Anyone?

It's a good question. What "other system" are you referring to?
I'd love for the OpenKirin or TWRP guys to chime in. I've TRIED cross-compiling both the factory Berlin source and the OpenKirin Berlin source with gcc 4.9, and I keep running into errors. I'm trying to work through it myself as to not bother them, but if they have any recommendations and tips on how they are compiling from source, I'd love to hear more.
Here are some links that should help:
OpenKirin source
github.com/OpenKirin/android_device_honor_berlin
Huawei Berlin Source (You'll want to change the country code for the country that you are in. This one is for the US.)

Hi.
Referring to firmware finder method... and I see that I cannot do the same procedure now that I am already on Nougat. My OS for sure has some corrupted files, but if I do again the firmware finder process (with MF file not the MF-PV), the operation stops.
That's why I need a TWRP ROM ready to flash...
Frankly speaking the samsung forums are much more "crowded" than here and solutions come out very quickly.
I was used to flash ROMs every week just to test or play with... Here is kinda desert....

Go to this link
http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=
find the firmware version which worked on your device previously Download the zip package which has full as status .
Boot into twrp and make a clean flash of the zip.
Stock ROM Zip default has updater script so it can be flashed through TWRP.

You don't need to create. Full firmware packages are TWRP flashable, at least for Honor 8 which I personally tried and tested.
Sent from my Honor 8 using XDA Labs

Well, I will try again as you said.
But I read that MF-PV files are used to change from a previous OS version to the new one. (For example in this case from marshmallow to nougat).
Files with MF only should be used to update within the same OS number.
If I use that zip file, it doesn't work with TWRP on my phone.
I'm not trying the MF-PV because in theory it deletes data and everything....
Anyway, we'll see.
Thx.

unable to install twrp over 3.1.1.1 on mi4c (trying to go from android 7.1 to 8 or 9)

Hey everyone,
i usually don't post questions but i've been on pretty much every forum the web has to offer and am still stuck so i'll try my luck here.
i'm currently running lineage 7.1 on my mi4c, i've used another phone for a while but now that my mi4c has a new battery i wanted to start using it again, is also decided this would be the time to update it to android oreo or pie, this however seems to be impossible.
i can only use twrp up to 3.1.1.1, all higher (and unofficial versions) will not boot via fastboot 'dtb not found' or when flashed via older twrp will freeze on boot screen.
whenever i try to install a new rom it tells me 'error code 7', when i remove the 'assert' lines in the update it gives me 'error code 6'
my device is unlocked, i have checked this in fastboot.
do i have to install miui again before installing another rom? do i have to go back to the standard recovery? i'm currently running out of ideas and hope you guys might be able to help me. maybe i'm overlooking something simple.
kind regards,
Monstreys

Hi! I don't know if this is a coincidence or not, but I was about to start a similar thread.
I try to do exactly what you are doing. I want to install LineageOS 16, unofficial ROM.
For this you need a newer TWRP, like 3.2.3.0, but it doesn't work 'dtb not found' like you said. I found out that this doesn't work because you need to have nougat bootloader. Most probably you have lollipop bootloader like I have, and thats why newer versions of TWRP are not working. I think the only way to update your bootloader to a nougat one is to flash the latest MIUI ROM. But, unfortunately, when you do that the bootloader gets locked, and I can't unlock it via MiUnlock due to Error:20091 when I try to link the phone to the Mi account. In MiUnlock it gives me the "this account cannot unlock the phone" or something like that.
Now I removed the "assert" lines from my rom and flashed it without the error 7 or 6. Some error still apears, but it also apears when I flash LineageOS 14.1, and that version is working even with those 2 errors I can't remember during flash.
After I flashed LineageOS, I flashed gapps and then superSU, and now my mi4c is stuck on mi logo for about 20 minutes, and I think it will remain that way.
So, there are 2 things we need to solve. We need to find a way to install latest MIUI without relocking the bootloader because I can't unlock it via MiUnlock, or to find out why after I flashed LineageOS 16 it gets stuck on MI logo.

I think I found the solution. Do exactly what this guy is doing here and it might work.

I followed that guy instructions and I managed to install TWRP 3.2.3.0 and LineageOS 16, and it booted. Now I am at the setup part but it has very big lag...

My MI4C has been successfully flushed into lineage-17.1-20200220-UNOFFICIAL-libra.zip. It has been updated on TWRP 3.1.1 and keeps reporting error 7, and then abandoned TWRP3.1.1 and flashed into OrangeFox-R10.0-1-Stable-libra.zip After brushing libra-aqua_firmware_7.2.9.zip on this REC, you can flash lineage-17.1. I do n’t think it will be impossible to refresh because of partition problems. If you only need to upgrade lineage-17.1, you can refer to this method.:good::good:（Translation is not easy to use）

celrau said:
There is a 3.2.x around. If you don't want to bother go in the zip, /META-INF/com/google/android/ and delete the first lines (the ones starting with "assert") from updater-script, save and flash again.

2nd attempt to upgrade to 12.2.4.0 from 12.0.4.0 failed and resulting in storage wipe

Hi,
I would like to know if anybody encountered this. This is my second time encountering this issue. I was on 12.0.4 and received a notification to perform update to 12.4.0. After downloading and rebooting, my twrp launched and after a few seconds instead of flashing, it went to the main menu page. After that, the phone just goes to fastboot mode and refused to boot. My phone has been rooted with magisk. Much appreciated for experts inputs.
The only way for me to boot my phone is to do a clean flash using mi flash tool and fallback to the old version...
Thank you.

V12.0.4.0.QJKMIXM is a android 10 stable rom and V12.2.4.0.RJKMIXM is a android 11 stable beta rom which has many bugs.
V12.2.4.0.RJKEUXM is a stable rom that you can flash with miflash(but EEA not global).

After successfully going to v12.2.4.0, now I am finding that my current TWRP 3.4.1b unable to decrypt the phone thus not able to root it. I guess I have to fall back to 12.0.4.0 to be safe... I was tempted to go to 12.2.4.0 due to android 11 but looks like it's too problematic now due to beta. I was actually wondering why beta was pushed to me.

Try xiaomi.eu_multi_HMK30Pro_V12.2.2.0.RJKCNXM_v12-11 better than stock and on android 11.

Try flashing stock recovery before performing ota update. Flashing ota via twrp cause /storage inaccessible for me.

Thanks, so you updated with stock recovery without issues but are you able to flash twrp with the updated rom?

Is that the most stable android 10 based on miui? I'm thinking about downgrading to many android 11 bugs on 12.2.4.0 global

Yes i am able to successfully flashed twrp via fastboot afterward and directly proceed to root using magisk.
Everything works as usual, except, for me atleast, twrp now require pattern-type (3x3 dot) as password for decryption. Pin or character doesnt works.

Deleted.

To solve update problem you need to Rollback to stable stock rom, I used this:
Code:
lmi_global_images_V12.2.4.0.RJKMIXM_20201228.0000.00_11.0_global
extracted it.
then used mi flash from this toolkit:
Code:
mi-globe.com_Xiaomi_MiFlash_Pro_EN_5.3.1104.39.exe
sorry, but I cant provide links to downloads.

This is nothing new. With the bootloader unlock you can flash any version of stock rom with miflash.

Bootloop after installing Lineage

Recently I decided to play around with my retired xiaomi 4c which I bought in 2016/2017.
Firstly, I unlocked my phone and installed TWRP recovery. (the version I installed is twrp-3.1.1-0-libra), the link I used is here: https://dl.twrp.me/libra, the reason why I did not install version 3.1.1-1 is that It won't load in recovery mode.
Secondly, I tried to install lineage 14.1, 15.1,16.1, 17.1 (none of them worked), It gave me this error
E3004 the packge is for device 4c,libra, this device is .
After searching on google, I deleted the first line (the assert statement) in META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script.
I guess it managed to be installed (no error pop out).
the log displayed while it is installing:
detected filesystem ext4 for /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system
packing system image unconditionally
However, when I click boot to system, it stuck on the mi logo.
I need some suggestions on how to make this work.
Thanks in advance!

Flash the latest available official miui (currently V10.1.1.0), via mi flash tools
Flash twrp or orangefox, via ADB. twrp official site has an old version, androidfilehost has a newer version TWRP-20190528-3.3.1.0-libra. orangefox official site has taken down libra files but sourceforge has OrangeFox -R10.0-1-Stable-libra.
Then try again

I experienced "this device is ." problem before.
From I read somewhere in XDA, sometimes a ROM may require certain recovery images to flash. So if the image is published with some recovery, you may want to try them together.
The last time I flashed my mi4c successfully, the LineageOS build and TWRP are both from this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-android-8-9-10-unofficial-lineageos-for-mi-4c-mi-4s.4008625/ .
Good luck

My device is Redmi note 11 pro 5G are there any custom roms available for it ? and is it lineage OS?

What about battery life ?

I haven't noticed any abnormal consumption.
I don't have any apps working in the background, and I haven't installed Gapps.
But the phone is new, the battery is 5Ah, with normal use I get to the evening with 30-40%.
Perhaps it consumes a bit more than MurenaOS (formerly /e/OS, which I used for years on several Xiaomis, with great satisfaction for my privacy needs).
I don't care much about battery consumption, my goal is privacy, and there is some work to be done on this Lineage.
I hope some Murena expert will work on it, I don't have the skills to do so.
I accept indications on other "privacy-friendly roms" or settings for Lineage 19.1...

I confirm the answers you have already received.
I followed the directions in "Installing a custom recovery, and disabling encryption in the system," in this forum.
There you will find Twrp 3.6.2_12-0.
Rom is "lineage-19.1-20221003-UNOFFICIAL-veux-signed.zip" (1,170,242,002 bytes).
Now I don't remember where it came from, I think from this forum.
Try to look for it, if you don't find it we will see what to do.
I am a newbie, I don't know the forum rules.
I had also tried the directions of "TWRP 3.7.0_12 for VEUX/PEUX", but I had problems.

I am not sure, but I think yours is a different phone than mine (2201116SG).
Please check it carefully.

Twrp 3.6.2_12-0 is not official, small difficulties are normal, I thank who developed it!
-------------------------------
I thought it seemed to freeze, instead it unlocked after a few minutes.
I spotted a little trick: press the power button on the phone and you can access recovery right away.
