Question Flash official MIUI Update and keep TWRP custom recovery? - Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro

Hello,
I recently got this new phone, unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP and rooted via Magisk.
I was on MIUI V12.5.3.0.RJUMIXM and had no OTA update available on my phone. I saw the V12.5.5.0.RJUMIXM in the MIUI Update Thread, so I downloaded and installed it. After flashing, my TWRP was gone, so I had to reinstall it via FastBoot.
Question: is there a way to keep TWRP Recovery when flashing official updates via TWRP? For example flash update and then flash TWRP again?
Another question: will I get official updates OTA when I have TWRP installed/bootloader unlocked? Or do I have to download and flash it manually every time?
Thanks in advance, kind regards

Official MIUI will restore its recovery. AFAIK, theres no way to keep your recovery.
You should consider installing xiaomi.eu

It will disappear during MIUI update, at least that is what I remembered.

No, it will not disappear if you are using OrangeFox.

[Newbie Question]TWRP gone after OTA update OSS 5.1.6

I have an oneplus 6 with official OSS 5.1.5 and TWRP installed. But after OTA update my phone to OSS 5.1.6, i cannot boot to TWRP anymore. Is TWRP gone after OTA update? My OEM unlocking still unlocked.
Have u not read anything in these forums, tutorials or anything?
There are like 50 threads on how to upgrade and about the new partitions for op6, it is even clear when u installed twrp too

Hi, just to clarify when you install an OTA on the oneplus 6 it uses the new partitioning system which is different so to remedy the situation just try reflashing TWRP enchilada installer using fastboot.

Previously, i've installed Beta(unofficial) version of TWRP, now i want to re-install TWRP with Official version , do i need to remove or do something firstly?
To fix it just download the official TWRP for oneplus 6 from the official team win recovery project page and then you put that on your phone, and flash using your currently installed TWRP then after that make sure you also install the root package as installing the new version of TWRP will modify the new boot image, Also a good time to mention that it will install in both slots (Seamless update slots) Treble slots if you will just to be aware.

Just follow one of the many upgrade guides. Skip the part about upgrading to 5.1.6 but for the rest follow the steps exactly. No need to explain all this in yet another thread imo. You'll need a pc though.
that's would be great if twrp can be flashed and stays there without wiping as well as root.
Pleasssseeeeee read before creating a new thread

Wait!
Don't install 5.1.6 ROM because OP has retired it. The last version availabe on OP site is the 5.1.5.

You can't boot into twrp because it's not there anymore. The OTA created a completely stock version of the OS that you're now booted on. You need to reinstall twrp and magisk according to the posted guides. This is going to be the case with all OTAs. The stock updater looks for root, and when it's there, it installs a complete OS, not an incremental update.

is it possible to upgrade from pie hos to a10 oos using local update?

hello there.
sorry for making a new thread .. ive asked my question multiple times no one answered properly. so here's the situation:
just received the phone from china . i'm on android pie hos. and want to update to ob7 . having root and twrp is it the right way to do it? :
1. update to ob7 using local update and full zip file.
2. unlock the bootloader and flash twrp 70 (or 74 i'm not sure?) using adb
3. flash magisk and twrp installer in twrp recovery
4. done!
i heared its better to use twrp 70 and dont know the reason. whats wrong with the latest version?
Not sure if that will work, but locally upgrading from h2OS to OOS worked on my old op6 when I had it.
If it does not work;
Backup your files first then you need to unlock your bootloader.
Then boot twrp via command prompt. Once booted into twrp. Wipe data and do a factory reset there. Flash twrp installer then reboot into recovery.
Flash OB7, twrp installer and magisk then reboot to recovery again and flash ob7, twrp installer and magisk then reboot to system
I'm using .74
Not sure what the problem is/are.
Regards

It can be done but I wasn't happy with it there were loads of bugs.. Issues slowdowns etc.. I would suggest strictly against it..

Which route you want to follow twrp or official? If its official i'd say try the msm tool.. That will put you on oldest pie and then you can do OTA..
Twrp is self explanatory..

Installing Magisk on stock global miui

Since kernel releases are yet to be published " a total duck move by xiaomi ?" I wanted to keep on using the stock ROM without changing anything but miui is too cringy for me to live with it, so I need to put the ol'rooting hat once again
My question is.. did any one actually root it using magisk and can still get ota , or you would need to uninstall magisk then update then get magisk again?
Also what happens to TWRP , can it coexist with miui ?
I had a previous xiaomi phone (mido) but tbh I never even thought of using the miui and switched to RR once I unlocked the bootloader ?
You can get ota with magisk but updating will rewrite boot and recovery so you'll need to re-root.

FYI, I'm still on stock EU v12.0.3.0 with mauronofrio TWRP and rooted with Magisk.
I got two OTAs already, the last with v12.0.4.0 -- and it even tried to apply one of them while I wasn't looking but it obviously failed, since there's no stock recovery.

What if I reflash the stock recovery.img after rooting, that might get the ota working ?
Yes I know I would still have to flash twrp and magisk again after it
I'll test it on my old phone first , hope it can work as a reference for one last time of it's miserable life

I thought the same, but then I'm not keen on moving to v12.0.4.0 right now, so I didn't budge. Let us know how it goes. :good:

Still the same, just flash the root file and reboot it up... And also install magisk manager to have root management
Orange Fox is much more recommended for our Poco by ManoloRey for installing AOSP ROMS...

Having issues decrypting after attempting to do OTA update

Hi,
My phone is rooted and with twrp. After attempting to perform OTA update, it now boots straight to the fastboot screen. I still can get TWRP to work but there is no prompt to decrypt my phone after twrp starts so I basically can't read the phone contents. Much appreciated if anybody here can guide me to fix my phone. Does it mean I will lose all my data?
Thank you!

Does this PBR work for MIUI 12 Android 11 OTA updates for Xiaomi.eu weeklies?

removing twrp through system update is it possible?

I unlocked my bootloader installed twrp and magisk, and i did not like it so I uninstalled magisk wiped and now I would like to remove twrp. is it possible that if and when android 11 is released it will remove twrp and relock the bootloader? Im on the T-mobile version.
Yes, flashing your current OOS full OTA zip via system update on your phone will remove it.
Flashing 11 when it comes out will do the same.
