I'm currently using Pixel experience

Please Tell me how to!!
My phone is a Pocophone not Poco F1(is there any difference?) Global Edition

I'm curious about how you managed to flash a custom ROM but now you don't know how to flash the stock one ???
Follow this guide dude

just download the RECOVERY ROM from
https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/how-to/xiaomi-poco-f1-unlock-bootloader-custom-t3839405
and flash it via TWRP !
and you are DONE

- after flashing ROM, reboot, signin , settle and then come back in twrp and flash magisk19 and reboot
why?
in my xperience the setup wizard takes forever to signin to google if you flash magisk,, i have no explaination why! but it happens with me many times !

I don't know but flashing via mi flash tool can clean all + lock boot loader , it's an easy process .
For this process all you need is mi flash tool + latest miui build+ universal adb drivers .

it would be best to flash xiaomi.eu rom via twrp. No hassle with bootloader, recovery etc

If you want to go back to stock ROM you have two options. First one is via installing stock ROM from recovery and the second one is via fastboot mode. If you search MIUI firmware on chrome and then you have to open the first site. Then search POCO F1 and you will get the ROMs for recovery and fastboot mode. Then follow the instruction on "Munchy" youtube channel.

To install Stock Rom download the recovery Rom and the latest Magisk.zip
Boot to TWRP click install and select the recovery rom then hit add zip and select magisk.zip and swipe to install.
You are done twrp will remain there along with root.

Bootloop Please help

Ok , So I finally was able to unlock my bootloader after getting that 50 % error, I thought that I'd flash miui 8 , so I downloaded the rom from official mi website and flashed it with twrp but for some reason I got stuck in a bootloop. I dont want to download fastboot rom as it takes a lot of time due to slow internet, so could anyone tell me how can i successfully flash a rom from twrp. I've got bot miui 8 chinese developer rom and global beta rom downloaded.
You need patched boot for normal twrp or u must use cofface twrp to flash the rom.
You cant flash stock rom via twrp without patched boot.img
And if you are flashing marshmallow rom u must know that the bootloader will lock itself again.
Why not just flash the miui.eu version? No boot image mess..

Edit : The recovery worked. Thanx.
where can I find a patched boot.img for latest chinese developer rom.Thanx for the fast reply.
Just use cofface recovery for stock roms:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/development/recovery-kenzotwrp-cafface-3-0-0-t3369341
I think that the Alca recovery do the same, but I haven't test it yet

Help! Need to revert back to MIUI from CM13 !

Hi ,
I have to revert back to latest MIUI ROM from CM13 ROM [ locked Bootloader]. I have read other threads too but theres never a clear answer.
First of all I dont have any backup of any MIUI roms. I want to do a clean install of latest MIUI build.
What do I have? : Alka TWRP, CM 13 with locked bootloader I think.
Can someone please tell me what do things I need to revert back with steps?
Do I need to unlock the bootloader first then flash the lastest build of MIUI with MiFlash tool? or the bootloader needs to unlocked later after the flash?
Or can I install MIUI recovery rom? with ALKA TWRP?
Flesh miui rom via edl method using mi flash tool.
download fastboot rom and flash via mi flash.
it will lock ur bootloader so unlock it via mi unlock again if u officially unlocked.
off course this method requires a PC.

In the developer mode settings, enable advance options to restart. This will give you the option (on long pressing the power button) to reboot into recovery. If by this method you can get into recovery it would be alot easy to flash the MIUI ROM (which you can get for your device from the official miui rom download site).
If you can't get into recovery, you will need a PC/laptop.

Most probably yes.
But you could try( before unlocking) booting into recovery as i have mentioned above.

Make sure u come from latest miui 10 stable
If u unlocked boot loader unofficially and zcx
then first replace ur zcx twrp with latest twrp. Then u can flash custom roms and gapps.
U dont need any firmware Before flashing custom roms.
Just format data
Wipe data reset
Flash rom and gapps.
Reboot.
If u try to flash those 50mb size miui firmware zip using twrp then u will brick ur phone coz u r unofficially unlocked. So get rid of that firmware fever from ur head. U dont need any.
In case if u feel like going again back to miui global rom then put ur phone in EDL mode and flash kate fastboot global rom using computer and miflashtool.

Better use official TWRP, Orangefox or Redwolf recovery
No need to flash firmware as you're already on MIUI 10.2
Just wipe system, data, also format data & proceed to flash the rom
Thanks for the help guys

Can you help me? This is for Kenzo
I had softbricked? my phone. Went through the process of installing the MIUI 10 fastboot rom but it required activation which I can't do as I forgot my login details (i bought this phone years ago)
Yesterday I managed to unlock unofficially using this method
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66379587&postcount=3
Didn't install 7.1.8, just 7.2.5, followed the instructions, was able to enable oem-unlock and usb debugging, confirmed bootloader was unlocked
Flashed the latest twrp, tried zwcx, lastly tried the latest orangefox
Tried flashing AOSPextended nougat and viper os nougat with various recoveries but they were stuck at the logo for the corresponding roms
I am not sure...do I have to do anything with that boot.img patcher? And if so, when would I flash it?
Went through the same steps again. Same result. All roms get stuck on the custom boot animation
edit:nevermind, flashed that unlocked bootloader rn3_unlockonly in miflash and it booted up

There is an updated guide to unlock unofficially on MIUI 9 with new bootloader.
The problem was you unlocked on older version of MIUI.
To recover password try to visit mi cloud & check if you can do something or forget & use custom roms as there's nothing good about MIUI.

Ah, yes I didn't know that the process was different now. I was just trying to do the Mi Unlock thing in order to flash these custom roms, not gonna use MIUI.

Flashing recovery - keeps reverting to stock after reboot

Hi peeps
New Pocophone owner here. I got my bootloader unlocked earlier today and now trying to flash the official TWRP 3.3.0.0 recovery from twrp.me, simply following the fastboot instructions on the device guide.
However every time I reboot the device, the recovery always reverts to the stock MIUI recovery?
What am I doing wrong here?
I just got the phone and have upgraded it to MIUI 10.3.6 as well. I am wanting to flash pixel experience onto it.
Do following, instead of flashing your recovery.
Use this method boot and flash Magisk. Reboot back to your system and install Flashify and install your choosen Recovery with it

What the post above says is correct. However, if you don't want Magisk, after flashing TWRP, reboot into recovery and then into system. You may retain TWRP. However, this doesn't work for everyone.
Hi all, I fixed the issue by completely wiping my phone via TWRP and clean flashing pixel experience ROM. After rebooting on pixel rom TWRP persists.
It appears that MIUI rom has something that keeps reverting it to stock MI-recovery.
If you are on MIUI and flashing TWRP, once the recovery is up for the first time, you need to head on to reboot>recovery again in order to overwrite MIUI stock recovery. So the whole process would be like this;
i) Fastboot flash recovery twrp.img (or whatever the name of the image)
ii) Fastboot boot recovery
iii) Once TWRP is up, Swipe to allow modification and then go to Reboot>Recovery and reboot into TWRP once more. That's it! You have just overwritten the stock recovery and are now on TWRP!! Now you can reboot to system and TWRP will remain on your device. There's no need to flash Magisk etc if you want just TWRP and nothing else.

I did those exact steps and it didn't work. It ALWAYS kept getting overwritten.

Did you follow step 3? You can't boot into system right after twrp is up for the first time. You need to reboot into twrp twice before you boot into system. This is what I do whenever I flash twrp and it never failed me yet.

Yes, I even flashed the recovery image from within TWRP and rebooted to recovery again. Still didn't work.
Note this was on the new 10.3.6 stable MIUI release that got rolled out recently. Not sure if it has new detection or anything that rolls it back.
Anyway I have resolved my issue now all is good.

How did you fix it?

Unable to flash the stock fastboot ROM via Mi Flash tool.

For whatever reason I can't budge the tool to flash the latest fastboot ROM on my Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite that I plan to sell since my new phone arrived today. A custom ROM from the last year is currently installed on the device.
I installed the latest Universal ADB drivers, installed the latest Mi Flash tool (2020.3.14.0), put the phone in fastboot mode, connected to PC via USB 2.0 port and tried to flash the latest fastboot stable ROM via the tool with "clean all" option and most of the time what happens when I hit the flash button, the fastboot logo on the phone disappears and in the left top corner a small white text "hit any button to restart" or something like that appears. Only once a progress bar appeared with $fastboot bla bla bla II echo missmatching image and device" and that was it... no progress, again the white text prompting me to hit any button to restart appeared on the screen.
Any ideas what I am doing wrong? cmonBruh
Phone: Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite 64/4 Global (platina with custom ROM installed) Windows 10 Pro 1909, MSI B350M Bazooka with AMD Ryzen 5 2600.
Hello.. I will try to help you.. And tell me if you fixed that..
Can you install a custom recovery? Twrp?
Id you can do that fallow my steps..
First download the fallowing twrp from here :
https://drive.google.com/file/d/14cRc4UG4hzL45cDhdFZ7odr5Kb8LSai0/view
It can support ota update and your phone will boot I used it to flash my mi 8 lite without pc. And works!
Download and flash that twrp using mi flash tool. I hope your bootloader is unlocked if you already have other twrp installed simply flash the twrp zip file. And update your recovery. If you don't have any twrp installed simply rename. Zip file into .img file and flash it with flash tool. If you can't flash it using flash tool try to install any other twrp and then install the zip and update the twrp
After you installed twrp go and download recovery Rom from here :
https://mirom.ezbox.idv.tw/en/phone/platina/
Download the first rom called : V11.0.2.0.QDTMIXM (1.8GB zip file)
( Recovery
miui_MI8LiteGlobal_V11.0.2.0.QDTMIXM_5574e03233_10.0.zip
Filesize
1.8G
MD5
5574e032330450c44c34d7f054de477b
Link
Download (Download to Mi Router)
Press download. Not download to mi router and don't forget.. Download the recovery zip file not the fast boot update!
After you downloaded boot in to twrp which I gave you above, wipe system / data / vendor / cache/dalvik and flash the zip file.
You can flash it with and without to wipe anything. But it is recommended to wipe. Pls go try and install it without to wipe anything, if it works ( for me works!) after flash done boot the phone and see if there is any problem. If u got any bugs or problems perform a clean flash wipe all and then flash!
Id you want root.. Fallow this :
You can root your phone with latest magisc manager using the same twrp. After you flash the boot.img with twrp press restart phone. If it won't restart go again to recovery and format only your data. And your will phone will boot again and you will get root acces. It's the only way to root android 10.
Please let me know if you fixed that problem.. And you flashed successfully the Rom..
DON'T FLASH THE ROM USING ANOTHER TWRP! ONLY THAT RECOVERY I GIVE SUPPORT OTA UPDATE AND CAN BYPASS THE XIAOMI Verification FOR THE STOCK ROM.. IF YOU USE ANY OTHER TWRP YOUR PHONE WILL BE STUCK IN Boot! Orange fox or any other twrp won't work!
I used this method and works like a charm
