"install update.zip signature verfication failed "while flashing twrp - Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
I just got my redmi note 2 and found the device full of chinese apps and the battery life was not what I expected.So I want to flash a new rom and a custom recovery.So I tried to flash TWRP 2.5.7 and I Followed these steps:
downloaded TWRP 2.5.7 and renamed it update.zip
Saved it to Internal Memory
Used the updater app, phone automatically went to the recovery mode
started flashing TWRP
but when The process reached 99% a error message read"update.zip signature verification failed"
I did a full wipe and did it all over again.Same error.also tried MI PC suite but it would'nt let me create a backup hence no flashing.So I am at my wits end here folks.Please help!!!!! And being new to MIUI doesn't help either
I am currently running on MIUI 7.0 stable (7.0.8.0)
SOS SOS!!!!!

You can't flash an unsigned zip file with updater/mi recovery.
MiPCSuite can't create Redmi Note 2 backups, it's a bug.
For install twrp recovery install an official developer rom (you can find it on http://en.miui.com). Now you have root access going into Security / Permissions / Root Permissions.
Install flashify, open it. It will say you haven't got root. Go in into Security / Permissions / Root Permissions and enable it.
Now flash the recovery.img file of TWRP with flashify as a Recovery image.

Thank You sir.I will definitely try this. I will let you know if this worked for me.
Also, can the official developer rom be flashed by the updater app? Or some other methods are required?

easiest way to root?

Hi
I've ordered the redmi note 2 and would like to install a custom rom on it when I receive it. Can somebody tell me what the easiest method to root the phone and install TWRP is? There seems to be so many different ways and I'm finding it abit confusing. Also do I need to unlock the bootloader before rooting?
Thanks

Flashed a china dev rom was an easier way without using PC. But first to need to wipe your phone. Then installed flashify to flash twrp.img. With twrp, you can flashed any compatible rom you like.
for the redmi note from the wife who only needed root I used Kingroot
And I wanted root and TWRP so I used Windroid toolkit
thanks for the replies. Windroid seems pretty straightforward, I'll give that a go once I get my phone.
You can flash xiaomi.eu latest ROM and you'll get TWRP 3.0. For root you can flash any SuperSU official zip using TWRP

Yes that one..
"Our ROMs now contains TWRP which will install it automatically and overwrite your MiRecovery (If you still use it)"
"Version 6.2.25 still can be installed via MiRecovery but it will overwrite it to TWRP"
I use xiaomi.eu ROM/Based ROM's because it has my language
ah ok, thanks mate
So I tried updating via updateer with the rom from xiaomi.eu but that failed it said something about the file signature. So I tried the windroid method, the computer picked up the device no problem and it was weorking well. I flashed TWRP and Super SU and completely wiped everything on the phone. Now I'm trying to sideload a rom using windroid, but when I go to the ADB sideload option in TWRP it just stays stuck on "starting ADB sideload feture..." Windroid seems to recognise that the device is in sideload mode but I can't flash anything as it just stays stuck.
Any ideas?
Never mind, my PC picked up the phone while it was in recovery and I was able to just copy the rom file over

rooted device and OTA update

hey I have the redmi note 4 sd edition global stable , I wanna update to the latest V8.5.8.0 but my device is rooted and twrp is installed.. I tried by downloading from the updater but I got in the twrp recovery. when I root a device I know I can't get ota updates.. but I don't wanna lose my files photos etc... if I download the latest version with zip extension then I can get on the twrp recovery and flash it ? or I think there is way in the updater to flash a zip.. am I gonna lose files if I try any of these methods ? what about format ? do I need it?
Hi
I found myself in the very same situation, and despite a little bit of trial and error look at what finally helped me to update and regain root, I kept all my data and settings. No bugs so far!

Don't bump up within 2 minutes of posting a question. You are supposed to wait for 24 hrs.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/po...-f1-unlock-bootloader-custom-t3839405/page245
If rooted and with TWRP, I suggest you follow these steps to update the same way I did.
NOTE: Don't forget to backup
1. DOWNLOAD THE ROM (either via updater or from xiaomi.eu, but if using updater, click install later, just let the zip download.
2. disable all MAGISK MODULES
3. reboot to recovery and flash the latest ROM
4. wipe cache and dalvik
5. FLASH latest FED from the post above
6. Flash latest Magisk. Reboot
Again, make sure to follow these steps exactly so as not to mess anything up. Goodluck and be careful

Hi so recently today I was able to successfully flash my stock ROM from Global 11.0.3 to Europe 11.2 (20.3.5).
All works, I have a new and version specific TWRP recovery which solves the decryption issue and such.
Only problem though is I can't seem to update my ROM from the latest Europe 11.2 (20.3.12). I am aware that we cannot install OTA updates like we normally would because we are on a custom recovery. I tried flashing it from the 'choose update package' where it brought me to the TWRP and executed OpenScript to flash, and also tried flashing from TWRP itself. No luck. Bootloop into Redmi Logo and TWRP recovery, so I end up restoring the working Eu version.
An updated tutorial on how to install OTA roms on custom recoveries would really be appreciated, thanks!
Hey OP, could you make a How to install GSI guide?... I'm really interested on doing that.

you have to flash https://build.nethunter.com/android-tools/no-verity-opt-encrypt/no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.1.zip and then update the OTA..dont forget that we normally use a custom rom with TWRP, no point of having twrp with stock rom??? try xiaomi.eu , its way better and you dont have any problems with updates.

Hello, you are lost mate...
You use Xiaomi.eu ROM, it's a custom MIUI ROM (Not Official ROM).
You can install updates given by Updater app (System app) without issue on this ROM.
If your phone bootloop just after a ROM update, and not after flashing Magisk, it can be because of a bad encryption from "bad" TWRP (so you need to "Format Data" in new TWRP <-- installed by xiaomi.eu ROM)
-OR-
Did you use my K20 to Mi 9T conversion patch (from xiaomi.eu forum)?
Check for update with Updater app, download and install it. That's simple on xiaomi.eu ROMs.
Trying to install evolution X on my Mi 9T but whenever I flash TWRP the phone won't boot to it, just keeps loading the fastboot screen. Anyone have any ideas where I'm going wrong? I've reflashed stock with miflash for now to get it working.

I have the same problem, but I can't find a solution. Did you find it ?
I found the solution with explication on how to install havoc_OS
after format data you have to reboot to recovery, flash firmware +rom+gapps...without firmware it wont boot on some roms..read well OP instructions, mine are only for xiaomi.eu, you dont need to flash firmware and it will boot fine.

Flash Miui Ota without stock recovery

Hello,
I'm on Joyeuse device with MIUI V12.0.1.0.QJZEUXM.
Twrp used: TWRP 3.5.0_10-0 for Joyeuse build by dungphp
Rooted with magisk.
I get few weeks ago OTA update for MIUI V12.0.2.0.QJZEUXM, downloaded it to /sdcard/downloaded_rom, when I try to install it through MIUI settings, my device reboot to TWRP, I put my pattern to decrypt datas and I get "Error installing zip file '@/cache/recovery/block.map".
So, how can I install this update ?
Can I go in TWRP, and flash this zip ?
I don't want to reinstall all of my apps if this process broke official rom.
Thanks for your help.
