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

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

Are you coming with stock ROM? If you are, just simply format data in twrp and then install you will be fine.

forgot to update but it's all fine now, simply formatting data didn't help me back then.
what i did:
- flash miui 9 global rom fastboot
- flash twrp via adb
- format system, cache etc without formatting internal storage
- flash custom rom

the mi3/mi4 doesn't have locked bootloader.
fastboot rom flashed using miflash. be sure to back up your files

So im on Havoc OS and im trying to figure out how to get back to stock OOS 9.0.4

hello i recently unlocked my bootloader and installed Havoc OS and i kind of like OOS more i didnt really make a backup though should i just install one of the OOS flashable zips?

Yep, just flash it like any other ROM. If it doesn't boot, try to Format Data !

Can't install Pixel Experience Custom Android 12

I have been struggling to install Pixel Experience Android 12 on my Poxo X3 NFC.
I had PE Android 11 before. When I tried to flash Android 12 I get following error
assert failed: update_dynamic_partition(package_extract_file("dynamic_partition_op_list"))
Updater process ended with ERROR: 1
Error installing zip file ...
What I tried
1, Install latest firmware
2. Format Data
3. Wipe data, dalvik, cache
3. Sideloading Custom Rom
Can someone help me to revive my device please?
Thanks a lot

Hello, on my wife's X3NFC I had to flash the latest Full ROM (12.5.7) via Fastboot.
Then I was able to install the lA12 PE. I don't know why I had to do this, but it worked.
She didn't like A12 PE and now A11 PE is running again on her Phone
Maybe (I heard about that) it works too, if you only flash the super.img from latest Fastboot-Image via Recovery.

I installed MIUI fastboot rom. Then I tried to flash PE A12 rom without any issues. But after successful completion, phone reboots to bootloader (Fastboot). Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?
Can you please give me steps to install PE after you've installed MIUI fastboot rom?

1st installed latest MIUI via MiFlash
Booting successful into MIUI
Flashing TWRP in Fastboot-Mode
Booting into TWRP, install ROM, wipe Caches and format data.
Reboot Phone

i'm in this very predicament. Still on PE11 Plus Edition and can't flash PE12 giving me the very same ERROR. Can someone pls post the sure way to get this done properly? Links to roms that must be flashed first would be very appreciated...

Newer Redmi 9a phones are locked so they cant downgrade to some versions, sadly one of those is 12.0.10, i recommend you flashing various recoveries till one works, then before flashing any rom format data, reboot to recovery, flash this Flasheable Vendor and reboot again to recovery. These are the necesary files from 12.0.10 to use any rom based on that firmware

i tried many recoveries, TWRP 3.4.0 and PBRP 3.0.0 show me black screen, PBRP 3.1.0 boots normally but touchscreen doesn't work and i don't know what to do to fix it.

Have you tried blocking it and unblocking the phone on recovery?, with the power button as if your were on the system
