that worked :good:
for some reason my usual "twrp-3.2.3-10-cepheus-mauronofrio.img"
is no longer working despite it working fine for every other update. ( i notice that the rom said android security patch) in the changelog) i wonder if that changed anything

Are you able to get Magisk working with this ROM ? I can't get Magisk to work. When I flash Magisk the phone boot but the launcher doesn't appear and I can't launch any application.
I tried to flash previous ROM version but I have a recovery loop when I boot.
Do someone else experience the same and have found a solution ?

@xdarkmario i think something changed with last beta of miui eu - till 9.4.25 it was fully functional by me too ) @widze i am working with magisk 19 - if u make fresh install and use magisk from here, it should work - at least mine is and i didnot do anything like dirt flash - only instaled via twrp

So I udersstand that it's working for you. I did a dirty flash but without backup support in recoveries, I can't do factory reset...

backup support in recoveries - u mean backup in twrp :? its not functional in any twrp beta for mi9 (actually), the factory reset i can do withou problem - so u go to twrp and there u choose factory reset, swipe left on it and...what ?

And I don't want to lost my data... I will wait for another version of Magisk or EU Rom and hope it will be fix.

I dont understand - u Want to do factory reset without loosing data ?
And you think, that solution is in backup in recovery?
If u make backup in twrp = u get img of your phone in actually state 1:1
So if u recover the backup = u get data in phone in same state as It was before = like there was no reset
Is not the solution in use titanium backup ?

Flash TWRP (I recommend the last @joshdroid that allow touch screen to work. https://s.basketbuild.com/devs/Joshndroid/TWRP/lt03wifi).
Reboot in Recovery, Power off then push Power and volume up for 3 seconds, release buttons. Wait until TWRP load.
Factory reset and wipe all but SDext, format data.
Flash the ROM in recovery with TWRP 2.8.7.0. After flashing if TWRP ask to fix root, DO NOT INSTALL!
This is a beta version and should work fine with patched bootloader or unpatched bootloader but I am not sure, please report on success or failures.
Xposed beta version for 5.1.1 works perfectly.
Thanks to @joshdroid for TWRP with touchscreen

Woohoo! Can't wait to flash when I get home, daily driver has been cm and its so amazing but hate how the volume output of speaker and headset is low than stock.

EDIT 1: Splanner seems to be working just fine. The clock also works, but the stopwatch causes a force close. Still testing.
Anyone have problem where in twrp it says "unmount of /system failed: no such volume"
After i wipe cache and reboot its just a black screen
Before flashing factory reset, wipe all but external sd and format data. That should make it.

It should flash, often you have to format data
What version of TWRP you have? Should be 2.8.7.0
Did you backup with TWRP on your SD ext card? If yes you can restore in TWRP
Did you format /data? writing yes when TWRP ask?
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-P600/ with ODIN, there is no zip files now only my rom I think.
I have twrp 2870 I formated everything but internal storage. It flashed but after the Samsung boot screen the screen goes black and nothing happens after that. Is the latest firmware 4.4.2 for our device?
I dont know if you wait long enough. First boot is very long.5 10mn possible. Now if you are comming from 4.4.2 try to flash original 5.1.1 from Samsung with odin, flash TWRP and flash the rom.
Nobody report yet on flashing result bedide you.

Redmi 5+, rooted, Ota Updates, magisk

HI,
I have a redmi5+ rooted. I use luckypatcher (i applied some patchs to some apps) and i have installed once BusyBox (didn't do anything in special).
I want to know if it is secure to flash the full update?
How do I confirm if the system files and vendor are ok to proceed?
I Will follow this tutorial: youtube.com/watch?v=oUUzxYHV_ac

Hi, I'm very newbie at rooting... But I managed to root my phone months ago and now there is this update (V10.2.1.0) that I cannot do because it's rooted...
I still have the original rom but rooted, and I don't want to flash anything since I have all my data, configuration and all this stuff :/
Is it possible to simply update it without flashing since it's the Xiaomi rom ?
Thank you

Twrp confusion

guys want to flash twrp to flash notification zip but am confused about few thing can you guys can help if the possible explanation in simple words will be appreciated
1: I read my data will get encrypted (what is this thing all about ) what encryption means i mean i know what encryption is in general but what does it mean here and how will it affect me i dont care if my user data get deleted when i flash but i dont wana get bootloop or soft brick
2: any proper noob friendly tutorial
3: can i flash global beta through twrp i dont want root etc just twrp
4 : can i retain twrp after i install global beta without root and magisk
5 : isnt there any portable twrp which i can boot to to flash that zip and all back to normal mean stock recovery
Check this out. Twrp is not official yet, but can use force encryption disabler to keep TWRP work on next reboot to recovery. So far no problem to flash rom via twrp.

For what I know, if you boot into twrp via fastboot, it will be encrypted back to stock recovery if you don't install the force encryption disabler.
Meaning that, this force encryption disabler is to help to keep the twrp recovery.

o yes its making sense now so if i dont use encryption disabler it will return me to stock recovary. and i f i do it will keep the twrp. ok if it is the case then what will happen if i flash twrp and flash that notification zip and reboot it without that encryption disabler will my phone will be reset or not on next boot

Well, There's no good and bad when you still can boot as per normal, just that the recovery will be different, either twrp or stock though...
Use the one with working decryption so you don't have to worry about it. Forget every other Recovery and the Encryption Disabler, it just makes things complicated and it's an out-of-date work around for other Recovery's which aren't fixed yet.
If you use official MIUI then you will need to reflash or boot TWRP again if you want to use it, because stock Recovery will replace TWRP when you boot official MIUI. This isn't so bad because it keeps OTA working (unless you flashed Magisk of course, which will need to be uninstalled first before OTA).

You can dirty flash the recovery over the one you currently have, it won't affect your phone at all. Keep in mind though that your device will stay decrypted, you'll have to encrypt it manually via the phone settings.

Interesting, if stay decrypted, that's fine as the twrp will continue stay for future reboot to receovery.

so refreshing to know. The only thing that haunts is boot loop to which we non-tech guys are afraid of and technical guys assume that every one knows the basics and hence the confusion occurs as no clear guide becomes available in new days of any mobile launch waiting a noob friendly thread for poco which might explain these in an order but thanx for the time you took to clear a bit

The simplest option for u is to download twrp with working encryption.
Dont flash it , just boot into recovery by fastboot command thru adb.
Flash whatever u want to and once done flashing , reboot and u will boot with stock recovery. That way for stock roms u can update via OTA also.
There's a thread in Q&A , will post the link in some time , would suggest u read it.

That's the only one last I checked, yes that's it.
You will need to reflash stock ROM (actually just vendor) if you want to enable encryption enforcement again in your ROM.

Hmm..
My current info:
Mini 9.6.25
Twrp (need to flash with Force encryption Disabler)
So here's my step to do:
Download the twrp with decryption enabled.
Download same stock rom.
Flash the stock rom
Flash the new twrp I downloaded.
That's all?
Will it be asking for password and stuff? Because as I know if it happens, I need to wipe data, right?
Another scenario, if I am going to flash miui 10 beta or stable in the future, I need to wipe data to get it work after flash?

The encryption tab is an optional feature if you want to encrypt the backup files generated with a password - much like adding a password to a zip file.
For which partitions to backup to save a full working ROM - see https://twrp.me/faq/whattobackup.html however I haven't tested for MIUI 10/Android Pie on the 9SE.
Did someone successfully restore a backup made with this recovery?
For anyone having issues with flashing. Try disconnecting the cable after flashing and boot into recovery with power + vol up. I am running on stable eu rom with magisk now. Seems to work smoothly

I flashed twrp recovery and all seems good but when i try to boot into twrp there is always still the stock recovery. I tried also with 2 different fastboot but nothing changes. What i need to do ?
when the recovery is flashed, instead of rebooting device when in fastboot mode, just press vol+and power button

Update from MIUI 11.0.1 To V12.0.3.0

Hello everyone, a little question. Now I'm running Android 10 miui 11.0.1 rooted with magisc and using pitch black recovery.. It supports the Ota update the same as stock recovery.
My question now is if I upgrate from MIUI 11.0.3 to miui 12.0.3 what will happens with the root? Will I need to delete the data partition?.. Maybe the new version fill found the phone rooted and the phone won't boot.. So I will need to format data..
Pleae answer to me guys asap. I can update the rom using twrp recovery.. But i don't want to lose all my data from the phone if it found the root
Sorry for my bad English..

Rom : official global rom miui 11.0.3 rooted with magisk

Probably you will need to root again!
It will format the partitions before flash the new one.

Hmm.. It is a simple Ota update so maybe it won't format anything.. But I'm thinking after Ota update done maybe the root is gone.. And for the Android 10 if you root your phone after flashing magisk always need to perform a data format..so I don't want to lose anything yet.. I don't know.. ?

Better to understand how magisk perform the root to understand where files go, i think it do something in boot.img and that is one if the images that Will be flashed i know, i updated it yesterday and a little tweak i had done was gone.

Yes the magisc use boot.img for root. So the new Ota update will get for sure a new boot.img.. So my phone will no more be rooted.. And if root after that I need to clear the data.. So.. No reason.. Better no update ?

You can install stock recovery and do factory reset, i think it will do a better reset than TWRP.

i tell you that because i think stock recovery reset some other partitions that TWRP doesn´t reset. And you can always change again to TWRP.
But it worked for you is what matters.
I've updated my mi 8 lite. I am using orange fox recovery, updated it using OTA (orange fox also sports it since you keep some auto generated files at sdcard) and I had not to format data partition. In fact, the update did not erase any user info. The only thing I had to do was to flash magisk zip again and voila, root is back and full functional again.
