Code:
fastboot flash recovery *twrp image name*
should allow you to write twrp to your flash partition.
If you're using
Code:
fastboot boot *twrp image name*
it just loads twrp for that instance.
On a sidenote, what are your plans with TWRP? MIUI has an issue that twrp asks for password when starting. If you want to root, you're better off loading it for single instance, installing magisk.

I have watch some videos and they said that its possible to install custom recovery permanently even if the phone has anti rollback. But if i cant install recovery can i still install custom rom and root the phone?

I don't think developer rom should be a problem.
Try this:
1. Copy PE Rom on your SD Card.
2. Fire up the stock recovery->wipe data.
3. Then when rebooting, keep the Vol Down key pressed. This will take you directly to Bootloader without invoking MIUI to encrypt the internal storage.
4. Connect to your pc, boot to TWRP with
Code:
fastboot boot *twrp image name*
You will see that it no longer asks for password.
5. In TWRP, go to Wipe Data->Advanced Wipe->Wipe everything except SD Card. (I am assuming you want a clean flash)
6. Back to main twrp screen->Install->Select Storage->SD Card->ROM File. It will take a while to install.
7. Reboot and you're good to go.
Please note that you still have the stock recovery installed in your phone. You can try to replace it with TWRP now as there won't be MIUI to roll it back to stock recovery. Hope it helps.

I did something and now i have twrp my main recovery but every time i wan't wipe it says unable to mount data and some others errors. I tried to flash magisk it worked and my phone is now rooted. I can format data and boot back into miui. But how i can fix the problem? Is my twrp broken? I don't think that miui stock recovery is deleted i think its only overwritten by twrp. I flashed lazyflasher and then it was my main recovery.

If you want to use miui then miui eu roms are recommended. They work flawless with custom twrp's.

No twrp isn't broken. The recovery is responsible for wiping data. Since stock recovery isn't there, the phone boots into twrp. Try factory reset inside twrp->Wipe or advanced wipe->select everything except sd card and format. If that fails, I have uploaded a copy of my recovery to the below link. Flash that and follow the process I have given above. If the phone starts booting into miui, it will encrypt the internal storage again and you have to start over.

Can you unlock the internal storage from twrp there? I am seeing all those tutorials saying that you should enter you lock screen password in twrp to unlock your internal storage but it doesn't seem to work.

Another thing, before you wipe your internal storage log out of your google and mi accounts. Else, PE Rom might throw an error saying there's something wrong with your phone. As far as I know it doesn't affect the functionality, but why take the risk.

AFAIK, you can't flash another ROMs twrp if it was built with proper assert.
And I haven't heard of twrp hard bricking the phone. You can always flash stock ROM via fast boot but say goodbye to data & internal storage.
So always keep backup.

Sorry I haven't been able to solve the internal storage
mounting issue either. I just wipe my data using stock recovery, go straight into bootloader before it can boot up, boot twrp from there and install whatever rom i need to install.

I have heard that people format data and then they restart the phone to recovery and wipe all data. Is that right? And if i flash pe rom do i need to flash anything else?

Formatting data and wiping data from recovery is the same thing. I'd suggest that you wipe data from recovery. That way it won't automatically reboot and accidentally go into android again. You can keep the vol down button pressed immediately after hitting reboot so bootloader starts right away. Remember to remove your mi account and google account before doing any data wipe.
PE comes preloaded with all the gapps. I didn't have to flash anything else with it.

Last night's OTA update bricked XT1521

My XT1521 is stuck at Fastboot, after trying to install last night's OTA update. The Bootloader Logs screen says "failed to validate system image" followed by "Boot up failed".
All of my important data is backed up. I don't care about preserving any data on the phone; I just want to get it working again.
The attached photo shows what I can see.
After connecting the USB cable, "fastboot devices" returns TA38502SB6 fastboot
Is this something I can fix myself, with appropriate software? Will I need to approach Motorola? Is it beyond help?
Flash the twrp recovery using fastboot, install a rom and the squid kernel. The Rom is pretty stable now..
---------- Post added at 09:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:33 PM ----------
Or else you can download the stock Rom

Was it the stock 5.1 update???
Software status: modified
How did you get the OTA update and what did you do previously ?
Recovery log says you had a modified software. So there was no hope to apply patch properly. And it bricked your system

Not sure. It was only around 20-30MB or so; can't remember the exact size.

OTA update was advertised through the normal Motorola OTA feature. All I did was to tap on "Yes, I'm in" to accept it when it was offered.
If my phone's ruined, then it's ruined. Irritating, but not the end of the world; a new Moto E2 isn't expensive. I'd just prefer not to have to buy a new one if there's any hope of resurrecting this one. As I indicated in my first post, the important data is safe; I just want a working phone again.
Edit: just re-read your question; realised I might have misunderstood part of it.
My phone had previously been rooted; before accepting the OTA update I went through the steps to unroot the phone before taking the OTA update; looks like something went wrong somewhere along the way.

i got the update yesterday too on my X1521 but it was working fine.after immediate reboot it was lagging like hell but rebooting solved it
Guys don't panic. What I would do is unlock the bootloader and flash TWRP, after that just download any custom ROM and TWRP lets you get on MTP so you can transfer the ROM to the internal storage.
---------- Post added at 06:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:57 PM ----------
Also there's plenty of stock ROMS out there like SuperR's Stock Roms
I have a similar issue, I just accepted the OTA update from Motorola on my XT1511(otus), It was stock/rooted. The phone went into boot loop. Tried these things to remedy
1) tried booting to TWRP from fastboot. I'd get the TWRP splash screen, but no functionality
2)flashed TWRP - now have functioning recovery, but during rom flash get "error, cant mount /data
3)fastboot -w successfully wiped data, but couldn't format partition, still raw
4)From twrp "mount" screen couldn't check the box for mounting data
5)from twrp wipe>format data was able to format the partition
6) I've flashed a couple of twrp recovery images, and a couple of different roms, I don't get error messages, but now when the phone is powered on it always boots into recovery, even when reboot>system or reboot power off is selected. I can still access fast boot.
Any suggestions? I'm going to try returning to stock at this point'
Update: Downloaded stock recovery here:

Installed with fastboot, phone boots properly now!

Step-by-step Rooting Guide with SuperSU for MI 8

I wanted to make sure everyone read this part first so that you know it's critical to backup because it happened to me figuring things out. If for any reason you are stuck in a boot loop, just reload twrp recovery and restore boot.img that you backed up for an easy quick fix.
Install drivers and adb on your PC.
Open command prompt or search 'cmd'.
Navigate to the directory with adb.exe
Download and store TWRP 2.2.2 (preferred) in the same directory where adb is located. Recommend renaming recovery file to recovery.img
Enable usb debugging on device by going to settings > about > and click on MIUI version repeatedly until developer settings are enabled. Go back and select additional settings to enable usb debugging.
Run the command: adb devices - to verify if able to connect to device (the serial number of your device will populate if so.
Run the command: adb reboot bootloader and phone device should say "Fastboot" in blue font
Run the command: fastboot boot recovery.img
Recovery will show in Chinese, click on the bottom right button to select English
May require to enter your default password you use to unlock your phone normally.
Click backup and be sure to backup system, boot, and recovery most of all so it's easy to recover your device moving forward.
Download and save SuperSU (I have been unsuccessful in getting Magisk to work at this time) onto storage device from PC to MI 8 that should appear with your Internal storage
Click on "Mount" in TWRP and unselect read-only
Click "Install" and flash SuperSU then reboot (my device rebooted one time and fully boot up the 2nd time so you're not alarmed)

Appreciate any feedback, ideas, thoughts, or suggestions where all can collaborate and expand where we help each other further. Look forward to the future development of the MI 8 folks! Please note, I wanted to share the method that seemed to work best for me, but please be aware each and every single MI 8 device is not always exactly the same and the end result may vary and I'm not held accountable or responsible should you choose to follow the directions listed above. However, I wanted to share this information to help avoid any frustration going forward and save you time.
p.s. - If someone could help me figure out how to get twrp recovery to hold and not end up being replaced by mi recovery I would be most grateful as this has been an issue for me (I tried flashing, booting, and installing the img through twrp with no success). Thank you.
Hello thanks for your guide but i think we first need to unlock bl And for the twrp recovery to stick and not to be replaced by xiaomi recovery we need to flash something called "dm-verity " it basically removes that check, which replaces any other recovery by xiaomi recovery
Have a nice day and thanks for your work
I thought so as well, unfortunately I just haven't had much luck with dm verity which led to a soft brick on my device. I'll have to look over the code as it may vary in comparison to other xiaomi devices.

im using miui eu
magisk is running without any issue.
i am on the newest xiaomi eu beta rom and flashed magisk 16.7 without any issue right now
(after waiting horrible 15 days for unlocking the bootloader)
Ok so both of you have the xiaomi eu. I have global stable 9.5.11. so maybe that's the problem

My friend i changed to the Xiaomi eu and everything worked. You dont have to flash the Chinese Version first you can go from Global to Xiaomi.eu. Just dont forget to do FORMAT data and not only Wipe Data.

I am assuming that most of you already know how to flash custom ROMS.
Boot into TWRP Recovery Flash TWRP 3.2.3-0 image
Wipe the System, Cache and Data.
Flash ROM Zipfile
Flash the GApps (optional, needed for Google Playstore to work).
(Optional) Flash root zipfile Majisk/SuperSU.
Wipe ART/Dalvik cache.
Reboot
Flashing the ROM itself the boot time is around 5 mins, if you flash Gapps + Majisk or SuperSU expect the first boot time to increase to about 7-8 mins

Did you guys just use the open source code of lineage 15.1 that didn't have working speaker. So is basically the same rom with different name. I'm still going to flash it for kicks but doesn't seem kinda pointless? Twrp should be better I'll let you know I'm assuming you forgot to mention gapps.
Funny cause the guy that built that took the source codes from someone else and that's why the speaker never got fixed because you don't know how to build or compile your just copying.
I got the rom up and running i was on marshmallow firmware and it worked fine. It takes awhile to boot up give it 10 minutes then when you start up it's really slow and lagging but after a couple reboots it works fine. I do say it's resremix tons of customization I haven't used any yet. I still think it's based off the lineage codes but it's different very different setup so it's worth installing if the damn speaker could get fixed it would be great. Bluetooth speaker or headphones work camera works I think the camera on this tablet is **** but works lol. Thanks for the rom guys. Twrp also seems to be working fine which is great because that's been a pain before.
Good job

After you flashed the new twrp 3.2.3 did you reboot back into recovery? You can't just flash it then flash the rom you have to reboot in to recovery again to have it take effect. Also then follow all other instructions what instructions did you follow just a little more detail. Also what room or system were you on before?
I am coming from stock. When I flash from twrp and then click reboot recovery I get a boot loop. I've even tried doing the hold volume down + home + power and then moving to volume up, still doesn't work. I can't get twrp 3.1.0 to work, I always have to use 3.1.1. and I can't get the system to downgrade to marshmallow to test out anything else. It always fails with media failed to launch or something similar. I can only get the stock firmware ending in q1 and q5 to work (the latest ones running nougat). But I did notice on the twrp link that the nougat is for the t355 but appears to work on my t350.

I'm not 100 percent what your saying. I believe your problems is with twrp you need to update twrp to version 3.2.3 which is on the first page of this thread. You need twrp 3.2.3 because the device tree is different for Oreo roms so much that you can't flash them with twrp 3.1.1. Downgrading system was not really the way to do it. I was just saying it worked from marshmallow not that you should be on marshmallow. When I downgraded from nougat firmware q1 and q5 bot to marshmallow I was able to downgrade but I got a drk error upon reboot. I just forced reboot and marshmallow stock worked but Downgrading is not usually good. Let's me also ask did you wipe efs partition with twrp 3.2.1 from the other thread at anytime? Try 3.2.3 either flash tar with Odin or extract img and flash in twrp recovery.
P.s. also yes twrp 355 3.1.1 does work on smt350 very well but still twrp3.2.3 should be the one to use.
If you wiped efs with twrp 3.2.1 and got an error you need to get back on to nougat firmware and then you into twrp terminal in advanced. Type in the first line hit enter then type in second command enter. You will no be able to boot marshmallow but you still might get drk error I got. It's because twrp 3.2.1 came from lte source codes and people think there the same there not the efs partition controls you Bluetooth and wifi on lte I'm sure it controls data. So it's not the same and it damages it and can't fix it because the partitions aren't setup right. I hope this helps. Guys take notes xda is for helping to not just getting root then leaving try to help out.

Thanks tech guy. I will try this when I get home. I am back on stock firmware q5. I will just flash with Odin since I don't have twrp at all anymore. I will flash twrp 3.2.3. then I will try these commands. Fingers crossed it will work. Then I will boot into twrp if it works and flash the rom and gapps. I am not trying to root, just a better rom. I will post back soon

Ok you need root in twrp you'll need to see # on the command line that's super user sign and you can't reset you efs without out it but recovery might have root with flashing it but I don't think so. Main point flash magisk.

And I think it is officially bricked now. I have tried to flash stock rom just to go back to having something that is working and I get the Error android and it gets to about 25 percent and resets to do the same thing. I have tried flashing twice, the official from sammobile, BSOD now.

alright i think i am done being a whiney beezy. i was able ot do a ton of research, found that i might have had an esf failure or something. i flashed stock firmware, then reset odin without letting it reboot, flashed twrp, booted into it, rebooted the tablet and it works. i think i will wait for a from stock explanation on how to get this to work, i cannot get the recovery file to boot from twrp 3.1.1, it just black screens.

Are you not English speaking? I said you had a efs error that's what I thought. You should have flashed the last version of nougat you had working when the error happened boot into stock and turned on USB debugging. Then you flash twrp either t355 3.1.1 or 3.2.3 are the best. I guess flash 3.1.1 for 355 at first then when you flash twrp on stock nougat boot into twrp and flash magisk 17.1 I'm having trouble with magisk 18 on some devices so use 17.1. Those terminal codes are tricky type them perfect or they don't work I recommend a couple times until it works. They should reset your efs partition then you reboot and flash your firmware again I'd say flash nougat again. Cause I flash marshmallow and got drk error. The firmware doesn't touch efs partition so once you screw it up your ass is grass unless you have a efs backup that works not the one from 3.2.1 twrp that screws everyone up. This is why people should not put stuff out until they have tested it. After you fix efs and can reboot then use twrp to flash twrp 3.2.3 by install image find the twrp 3.2.3 image select recovery. Flash because you can't flash Oreo with twrp 3.1.1. Then you can flash this rom.
You need root so you have to flash magisk in twrp after you flash twrp.
Try this code that will list partition blocks. Your efs should be 13. If it's not you don't have smt350 lol. Those codes work it Should say writing inode or something
ls -l /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name enter
mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p13 enter
mount -w -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p13
Edit try SuperSU 2..82 sr5 beta or 2.79 sr3 because SuperSU is better for Samsung it's made to disable dm verity I think. Only up to nougat SuperSU will not work on Oreo you'll have to use magisk. The most important thing is after you flash the working stock firmware one of them will work I had this problem to only nougat q1 would work the rest didn't boot. So after I got my tablet running I flashed twrp 355 3.1.1 and went into terminal inside advance in twrp. I typed this commands and it worked it reset my efs partition my Bluetooth worked again my tablet would flash custom roms again and even downgrade back to marshmallow but I'm not recommending that. You type the first one hit enter type the second one hit enter then reboot. The firmware needs to be the same one you had when it errors if it's q5 then q5. I'm trying to help man I don't think your tablet is done I think it'll work again but it'll take some time and effort. You got this man . I always flash root first I don't think you have to because twrp already has root but I would say flash SuperSU first .

Read everything i ve posted I said it was efs
Dude your all over the map man
1. Flash nougat firmware the last one you had boot up in the rom
2. Flash twrp 3.1.1
3. Flash SuperSU 2.7.9 or magisk 17.1 probably should go with SuperSU 2.82 SR5 beta.
4. Mack a back up
5. Reboot into rom
6. Reboot back into twrp and type that code it fixes your efs partition and resets it. Into terminal emulator inside twrp try it to it says writing inode or something like that. Both lines.
Reboot .
7. Go back into twrp flash image in install menu find twrp 3.2.3 I'm file make sure it's a image file.
Here's a section of my first post
Let's me also ask did you wipe efs partition with twrp 3.2.1 from the other thread at anytime? Try 3.2.3 either flash tar with Odin or extract img and flash in twrp recovery.

If you can't boot into nougat go into twrp and type that code into the terminal emulator then when you get it to say writing idone or something it's working if you can't see the screen is black you have to search xda on tab a forms there's a fix a don't remember anyone please if you had twrp black screen what did you do?

No you can't flash magisk before twrp that makes no sense.
Please let me know what firmware update your trying to flash it Should be a the last one you had when you got the efs error and was able to boot into rom. That firmware only that one. No others will work I had this problem and fixed it. Also what twrp were you using when you got the efs error? Please answer it will help others to not touch it. I noticed that twrp 3.2.1 was taking down so I'm wondering did twrp 3.2.3 cause the error?

Hi Bro., Can I flash this Rom on t355y ?

Unable to mount storage

Hello. I decided to switch to CarbonROM on my Poco f1 thinking that it was based on Android 10 (I really like gesture navigation). After reformatting my device I flashed the firmware, carbonrom and then my microG package. After a little hitch with the wrong firmware it worked. Then, after realising that it didn't have android 10 gesture navigation I thought I'd switch to another ROM. I booted to my recovery (SkyHawk recovery, based on twrp) and went to re format my device. The recovery asked me for a password to decrypt my device (which I found odd as I had never set up a password on CarbonROM) which I cancelled the request and went to reformat my device. I typed in yes and it told me the "Unable to mount storage". Wiping, mounting or any other action yields the same response. I tried rebooting to system and after the CarbonROM boot animation it told me "Encryption unsuccesful" and some text saying I need to reset my phone. I pushed the reset phone button and after a pop up claims to reset it, it boots back to recovery. The main console in the recovery says "cryptkeeper.showFactoryReset() corrupt=false". I have repeated multiple times. All I can access is the recovery (from which I can do nothing) and fastboot.
Is my phone stuffed or can I restore it somehow?

How though? Despite failing earlier, I have now been able to boot up into CarbonROM (so my phone is not bricked ) but I am unable to wipe / reformat my phone from SkyHawk. I know that you can flash a recovery if you have Magisk root, but even flashing Magisk doesn't work from SkyHawk. Can I get TWRP to replace SkyHawk through Fastboot / ADB or anything like that?

i think i wiped them all
I dont really remember which im messing in twrp. at 1st, i had an error with ( failed to mount /persist (invalid argument), and cant flash any rom.. after i tick the system,data,cache in twrp 'mount' section, that persist error got fix. but here comes new error, imei missing..
1. mount/persist error (when flashing)
2. messing with twrp while trying to fix persist error(googled but found for other phone).. repair, change ex2>ex4>exfat etc
3. persist error got fix (by randomly tick in 'mount' section in twrp)
4. then i reflash with stock rom via both twrp and miflashtool (the persist got fix, but imei was missing).
Download official fastboot ROM and flash it via Mi flash tool. I'm sure your problem will be solved.
But make backup of internal storage before that because it will wipe your internal storage too.

If even this doesn't work then erase modem via fastboot and flash Non-Halos.bin(will be found in fastboot ROM) in modem via fastboot.
It will restore your imei 100%.
