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

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

You are welcome :good:

FRD-L04 Help needed

I have a l04 with the latest 5.0 emui Android 7.0... The issue is that I wanted to format the phone to sell and doing so I deleted the os from twrp on accident and tried flashing the stock rom given from Huawei, but now the phone is giving me errors when trying to flash anything on twrp it tells me zip is corrupt. Not sure what to do from here since I cannot get the 5.0 recovery/boot/cust/system img files. Or the update app to do the 3 button reset.

Rommco05 said:
Just formated data and still you can enter to twrp?

Well i flashed the old img files for android 6 and they are not working i'm guessing because i am coming from android 7, so i flashed the twrp from xda for nougat and that is currently where i am at.

Rommco05 said:
So try flash full fw Nougad or from Lineage 14.1 by OpenKirin Team flash vendor.zip and rom.zip
Click to expand...

Okay lineage 14.1 worked, but is there any way to go back to emui 5.0?

I used the link on your profile for the go back to stock and I'm on the NRD90M test-keys official, but I wanted to get the b385 update from the team Mt firmware updater and it says it is approved. How would I update it through if the internal updater app on this ROM does not work?

Was able to setup proxy with desktop version and hisuite seems to be updating with new firmware.

How to wipe nougat from twrp 3.1 berlin

I think im stuck in nougat
i have updated my honor 6x to nougat through firmware finder. now this is my build no BLN-L22C675B310.
i tried to downgrade to MM but there is no roll back package for this build no
so i tried to format and wipe entire ph from twrp but the twrp from LOS download section is not booting even after completely power off then tried to boot into recovery not working. i think its for MM. so i tried twrp 3.1 berlin recovery
this time i can enter into recovery and i format data and wipe everything many times nothing happens after reboot it boots to nougat.
anyone help me

Rommco05 said:
You can be happy that you have still access to the system. So is a lottery with rollback packages (ehm
edit:
How go to MM without rollback package, via TWRP:
1. download twrp for MM, flash him, reboot recovery
2. make a factory reset in twrp, reboot recovery
3. flash full firmware MM (right firmware if not sure is it right don't flash it!!!)
4. reboot recovery, twrp is now replaced from stock recovery
5. tap factory reset in stock recovery
6. reboot, done
Guys, I dont take any responsibility about your device... I always can help you but is really possible to brick your device with this method (...corrupted .zip, unconsciously change zips etc) Ok? Thx

twrp for mm is not working on N. i tried to flash all the MM twrp recoveries they are not booting only twrp for N was working but its not wiping the device.
i have some experience on these recoveries when i was in MM. you can wipe your complete system,data and everything only from twrp recovery available on LOS 13 download section. remaining all twrp will not do the job. so finally we need good twrp for N.

In TWRP for Nougat flash TWRP for MM, that's don't work on your phone?

Stable gsi for honor 6x 8.1.0

You need to be in stock emui 8 with unlocked bootloader.
If you are in elemental rom come back to stock emui 8 then flash this rom.
If you are in another gsi you can proceed directly (flash below recovery then do factory reset then flash gsi los rom via fastboot then again reboot to stock recovery do factory reset)
If you are in stock emui 8 do not wipe anything just flash it via fastboot and do factory reset.
first flash this recovery
https://mega.nz/#!cbJFAIQD!qvp1KnZ0qxlg6nHDFmpM5qyZ9QUVIDe5PoZE0BQf8fs
Fastboot command: fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk name of recovery.img
Then download
https://openkirin.net/download/
Fastboot command: fastboot flash system name of image.img
Los or RR rom and flash via fastboot (no need to wipe anything) then reboot to recovery do factory reset. You will have oreo 8.1 with gapps ,full signal bars,face unlock and stock camera.
If you are experiencing no sound its not gsi problem you didn't flashed stock completely so first flash this twrp recovery (only if you are in oreo not for emui5)
https://mega.nz/#!a81EDZAR!2-9yPFh3reghkGcfSl3nRIJhHGkP8fqDsgUG66ewjkk
Then flash stock emui 8 via huru
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279
If huru only flased update.zip and gave you error no update_full_hw.zip and no update_data_full_public.zip not found in sd card then you need to rename them and flash again without wiping anything.
If stock emui 8 taking more than 5 minutes to boot then flash stock recovery mentioned above and do factory reset then it will boot with in 5 minutes.
If you don't have network or imei then you need to root. Then use any root explorer then go to cust/cn/all/localprop and change the line ro_config full network support=ture to false then reboot your network and imei will come back. You can do this in stock or in gsi.
RR ROM has great battery life with tons of customizations.
For emui8 flashing instructions,root and sound mod follow these instructions

Hell yess, thanks to open kirin team and you for mentioning it, the rom is excellent in use all bugs (the ones i faced in other gsi) fixed in this one and the availability of stock camera is just a cherry on top ?

Gsi means generic system image. In oreo custom roms will be available in system image formate we don't need twrp to flash custom roms just flash it via fastboot and factory reset.
Gsi roms will give you latest android os updates same as pixel devices getting so we don't need to wait for hauwei to release updates. If android p releases these gsi roms will give u update same as google devices getting. Oreo is game changer for every device.
If u want to flash gsi rom follow the emui8 upgrade method

Resurrection remix has huawei stock camera inbuilt....

Why flash stock recovery ? For those who are on Twrp ?
Great post. Hope you share some more experiences.

Trying to use the Google Play store it's telling me that my device isn't certified and I can't do anything..
NVM: For anyone else wondering I installed Magisk then the Magiskhide module and changed fingerprint.

Because you can't perform factory reset from twrp it can't do it correctly finally you will ended up in bootloop. You can flashctwrp right after doing factory reset but openkirin doesn't support twrp.

So before flashing magdisk did playstore worked for you? Or did you flashed magdisk when flashing os? For me playstore works perfectly.

Play store or any Google app wouldn't work for me before I install Magisk and the Module to change the fingerprint to a certified device.

No solution, but in the meantime you can use Aptoide as store: http://en.aptoide.com

Just info : Link updated https://github.com/GuaiYiHu/android...2.3.0-whyred/TWRP-20190330-3.2.3.0-whyred.img

it's a recovery so magisk is your choice if you want it or not.

I had this problem before. when you flash twrp, try to reboot to twrp again. then the twrp won't be flashed by stock recovery.
