Rooting MIUI 10.2.1.0 on global device and rom? - Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers

I've read about some bug on the latest MIUI that makes Magisk bootloop, but I don't know if that means we cant currently root. Any help is appreciated

Chinese ROM on global phone will give you bootloop, probably other way around as well

What if I'm on a global device on its stock software?

Should be fine. If it bootloops just uninstall magisk

So just install magisk through twrp? On latest MIUI?
Oh, it shouldn't wipe my phone right? Sorry just came back to Android after several months.

Install magisk 17.3 via TWRP, work fine.

No need to wipe, either go to twrp - advanced - install root OR flash the magisk 17.1 or 17.3 zip.

Hey guys, I am very new to Android since i switched from iPhones now to the Mi Mix 3 (EU Version). I unlocked the bootloader already and have the adb drivers installed and when I try to boot into TWRP using "fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img" into "fastboot boot TWRP.img" it will boot back into MIUI. I also tried some methods mentioned in various forums like
"1. Put phone in the fastboot mode (switch it off, then press and hold power + volume down for a couple of seconds)
2. Flash twrp through fastboot (fastboot flash recovery twrp.img)
3. Boot TWRP (fastboot boot twrp.img)
4. When phone screen become black, hold power + volume up until it vibrate then release all
5. The phone will boot into twrp "
but I never get the phone to go into the TWRP recovery mode. It either boots back into MIUI or into the MIUI Fastboot screen. Has anyone an idea? Should I try to reinstall the drivers or what could be the issue?
Thanks a lot in advance!!

Flashing TWRP
I had a similar issue (could not boot into recovery after flashing TWRP)
Rename twrp.whatever.img to "recovery.img", then,
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Magisk 19 works perfect also

Revert from OxygenOS to Cyannogen - problem with recovery

Hi,
Last month I've successfully switched my Oneplus One 16Gb to official Oxygen OS 2.1.4
Finaly I prefer the Cyanogen version and here I have a problem with the recovery tool.
I can't replace OxygenOS recovery at all and with it : not possible to install "super su" or cyanogen 12.1 rom.
With adb the installation of TWRP recovery or or cm12.1 recovery seems to work fine (transfer ok and no errors) but when I restart in recovery mode ((power + volume down) It's still OxygenOS Recovery in my phone.
Please help, I don't want to be stuck in this state :crying:

download the latest COS12.1.1 factory image to your pc, boot into fastboot mode and install the factory image via fastboot (flash aboot FIRST and do a "fastboot reboot bootloader" before you flash the rest ).
After that (or during, just replace recovery.img) you may install any custom recovery
Gesendet von meinem A0001 mit Tapatalk
Yes :good:
You brought me on the right track
I have successfully applied this method.
I nearly lost my phone because I had a power outage during the recovery but finally all is fine : I am back on COS 12.1.1 :victory:
A big thank-you

Yes I am trying to flash TWRP
However, when I follow the below mentioned steps this is what i end up with :
List of devices attached

< waiting for device >
And on the device screen it just reads "Fastboot mode"
So I kind of have the same problem but not exactly, I flashed the oxygen os and it worked perfectly but I wanted to change it to a nugget based rom and realized that I can not even boot into recovery. it gets stuck on the first oneplus logo that comes up and will not boot into the twrp. Any suggestions?
wait, so ur phone can't boot into the rom? or stuck at the fastboot mode everytime u try to turn on the phone ? I'm having that problem too, but I reinstall all the driver, and it worked.

Go to fastboot and flash latest twrp first. If you are rooted, you can do that also from running systen (flashify, twrp manager)

Can't flash TWRP [Oxygen OS & OnePlus recovery]

I am on Oxygen OS (2.1.4) with OnePlus recovery and am trying to install TWRP recovery without any success.
I followed the fastboot method rather than the stupid toolkit
All the steps go through easily with success messages but every time after completion I boot into recovery, it still is OnePlus Recovery and not TWRP
Note - There's not option called "Update Cyanogen recovery" to uncheck under developer options because as I said, I'm on OnePlus Recovery
P.S - I have a Mac and followed the tutorial via terminal under the path ~/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools

After it successfully flashes TWRP
Turn off the phone by long pressing button, do not fastboot reboot
Then use power button + volume up combo and it should boot to TWRP

I think you missed the entire premise. I'm not able to flash TWRP over the OnePlus Recovery in the first place let alone boot into it.

You claimed all the steps went through successfully which can only mean you fastboot flashed TWRP (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img) and it showed success but if you reboot to recovery its still Oxygen recovery.
Your wording was misleading. My advise only applies if the flash was successful.
Do not reboot after flashing twrp, you have to shutdown, off the phone after flashing twrp...If you reboot, stock recovery will overwrite twrp..All you have to do is very simple, fastboot twrp, off the phone, enter twrp ( power + volume down) and done!...twrp will forever be your recovery..

I own a Oneplus one with OxygenOs and I'm trying to change it to lineage but the new flashed TWRP is not showing up when entering at recovery mode.
Where did you enter the code? In your abd path by terminal or at the phone's path by x?
It works!

Rooting for March Update?

Hello fellow A2 Lite owners!
I just got this device today and would LOVE to root 10.0.7.0, However it seems like the only way to go through this is by using a patched boot image which is not viable because none have showed up for 10.0.7.0 yet.
Will there be any other solutions for this? Thank you.

Obviously, It is my preferred way since I used it on a couple of devices including my Redmi Note 4 and Mi Pad.
My concern is not OTA but whether it would somehow break the ROM
Yes, I am aware of Mi Flash, Flashing stock ROMS, and other techniques but it's just that i don't have time for such long endeavors and would like to have a safe-ish way.
However I will try to get twrp running temporarily to install magisk.

No it will not break the ROM I'm running the March update with twrp n magisk the only thing that does not work is backup n restore there is a new twrp 3.3.3.0 but I haven't installed it yet.

I have followed this guide but it would always result in the installed version of TWRP not installing correctly, and the system mentioning "The System has been destroyed, Press power button to shut down"

Only boot twrp not to Flash it...
Boot twrp command » fastboot boot twrp.img
Flash twrp command » fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
I assume you tried "flashing twrp" command, if that's the case it will replace your boot.img to twrp.img that's why it appears the "system has been destroyed" error... Try the "boot twrp command" if you want to access twrp temporarily... Coz right now we cant do(flash full twrp recovery) that as far as I know....

Hi guys,
just received from my sister a oneplus 6 and i tried to flash a new custom rom after updating the system. I was following the guide posted on these forum but, when i tried to boot from fastboot to twrp it just display endless the twrp logo. I tried to boot with an older twrp or blu spark but nothing, they all make QUALCOMM crashdump, just the latest never go past the twrp logo. Tried to search for someone with a similar problem but i couldnt find anything about my same problem. Thanks in advance.

Which android version are you? 9 10 11?
1. Unlock Bootloader (if is already unlocked, skip this step)
2. download platform tools and unpack
3. copy twrp img and installer zip to platform tools folder location
4. open cmd
5. reboot phone to bootloader
6. write in cmd fastboot erase userdata
7. then write fastboot boot twrp-file-image-name.img
8. twrp is booted, go to advanced and choos option Flash current twrp
9. if is done, then reboot to recovery
10. go to wipe option, choose format data and type yes
11. now you can flash rom using rom flashing instructions
12. remember, after done rom flashing, FLASH twrp installer
@Noob9496 hey dude thanks, i found Someone who had my same problem and I resolved too with fastboot erase userdata so I could had finally boot into twrp cause that was my main problem.
@croperas yeah that was the problem too, cause when I had finally my sweet rom, syberia os (the only android 12 available atm for op6) I tried to go back to the recovery but can't, tried reinstall everything but I couldn't so after some research couldn't find anything, but anyone who had problems with recovery almost always had problems with incompatible versions (like twrp for android 10 but had android 11) so I then realized it isn't still available a custom recovery for android 12 for op6. So after erasing everything its all fine. Thanks a lot guys really appreciated.

I have the same problem after flashing OO 11.1.2.2. I made a mistake flashing the wrong patched image to get rooted again but doing this I lost the access to twrp and now there is no recovery anymore. If I try to boot into any older version of twrp I receive a crashdump, if I try to boot to twrp 3.6.0 it gets stuck to logo. If I use the command "fastboot erase userdata" do I lose something?

Install the twrp installer directly from magisk
What I did was trying to install Lineage OS 18.1 (the latest nightly from Jan 11 2022) with Lineage OS Recovery. Following the official wiki I always got stuck in the lineage os boot animation. Never got past that. Tried to fastboot boot twrp.img but TWRP stuck on logo. I think I never tried to boot twrp with the userdata erased. I think I will try it.
Anyone trying to install the twrp, check out SHRP recovery for OP6/t. Boot the img and flash the zip from that thread. tested works with both OP6 and OP6t in OOS 11.1.2.2.

Stuck at TWRP splash screen

I recently updated to MIUI v12.5.1.0.RCDMIXM using a recovery zip through TWRP. A few days later I decided to flash Magisk by patching the boot.img from the same zip and flashed using fastboot.
Everything worked fine until I rebooted to recovery using the Magisk app. Now it's stuck at the TWRP splash screen, can't even reboot or enter fastboot with power and volume buttons because it will always try to boot to TWRP.
What do I need to do to fix this?
This is where I got the TWRP
Just erase/format the MISC partition.
This partition holds a "go to recovery" parameter.

Okay, but how exactly can I do that? It's been stuck like this since last night and won't go to fastboot with vol keys..
Can you use TWRP ?
If not, you need sp flash tool.
Try to flash boot.img and recovery.img.

I'll try using SP Flash, but I think I remember that Xiaomi devices have SLA auth to prevent unauthorized flashing using SP Flash. Will your scatter file work without it?

I just realized that the zip file or any other version does not include a stock recovery.img...
Do you have the Global v12.5.1.0 stock recovery? Or I could just use any version like vbmeta?
The phone's battery just drained, if I try to plug it would try to boot into twrp again so I kept it unplugged since I need it to be turned off for SP Flash

I just realized that the zip file or any other version does not include a stock recovery.img...
Do you have the Global v12.5.1.0 stock recovery? Or I could just use any version like vbmeta?
The phone's battery just drained, if I try to plug it would try to boot into twrp again so I kept it unplugged since I need it to be turned off for SP Flash

You said "fastboot", so you need the fastboot ROM.
SP flash tool does NOT need the device to be turned off, it just need to REBOOT.
If you try to flash while a reboot to another reboot, it will works perfectly.
Which magisk did you flash? 23 is not working for 9A

Are you still in 12.5? Do you also use a custom recovery in that version?
Just managed to access a laptop and got to fix the situation. Turns out I can still use adb even though TWRP is stuck on the logo screen.
First tried the `fastboot erase misc` command but misc partition doesn't exist on the device.
Tried `fastboot continue` but won't let me use the command and `fastboot reboot` just makes it go to recovery and get stuck again.
I flashed Orange Fox Recovery and it was still stuck at it's splash screen. So I went back to fastboot and for some reason `fastboot reboot` worked now and booted to system, further restarts are normal now.
Now I'm curious, why won't custom recoveries work with MIUI 12.5? When I tried accessing root, every folder (ex. system) is in this format [1;34system[0m, does it have something to do with that?
Still trying to get the stock recovery, but there's no fastboot rom file for this version yet...

Magisk v23 works just fine, just patch the boot.img file of your ROM version and flash it with custom recovery or fastboot.

Theres one TWRP that doesnt have a splashscreen, in that one just block and unblock the screen while on recovery and it'll work fine. BUT your internal storage isn't going to be accesible, its encrypted and (for some reason) on 12.5 twrp cant unlock the storage, you'll have to do everything on your sdcard

I thinks its because they cant unlock the storage, they keep trying and just keeps stuck on trying.
