Hello,
You must first install stock recovery in order to manually update through Updater > Local update, and yes update.app must be in the dload folder on the SD card. (connect your device to your PC, install adb, reboot it to bootloader using 'adb reboot bootloader', put 'recovery.img' into the same folder as adb, execute 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img', then do 'fastboot reboot', once your device is fully booted go to the Updater app, and do a local update.)

That is exactly what you need - adb reboot bootloader (<- it's one word!) gets the phone into fastboot mode (same as flashify). From here you can flash the recovery. On the PC, run fastboot flash recovery <path-to-stock-recovery>. This will get you the stock recovery on the phone. Now you can use the 3 button method to flash the stock ROM.

You must get it into fastboot mode. If the phone restarts and does not boot into the OS, then it's a huge problem. You may try to restore the phone with HiSuite, but my bet is that you'd better get it to a service - you probably flashed the wrong bootloader.
You might have luck with the recovery though - hold down VOLUME UP and POWER when turning the device on. This might get you ADB, so you might boot into fastboot mode.

You are right i have to get it to service its not working at all cant even find in fastboot neither in recovery .. this goes so expensive

Press power, volume-down and connect device to PC simultaneously. You will get into fastboot mode. Flash boot image and recovery image that was exactly from your firmware version.

Help installing TWRP on Xiaomi mi5

Hello people
i'm aware that there are guides out there, but i'm honestly not the best at all this flashing stuff, i have done it to a few phones but this one needs to be done just right!
So, where should i begin?, i reckon i should start with unlocking the phone via the unlock tool (i am registered and accepted) and then flash TWRP via that tool?
or is the best/only way of flashing TWRP with the ADB fastboot?

my problem now is i have no idea how to get miui 7 on it. Iknow that all CM based roms will end in a bootloop if i try to flash with that on.
i have tried a number of things, last time i tried i ended up with it not detecting my sim card, so i had to revert back to Miui 8

Your thread is getting slightly confusing so let's do it step by step.
Is your phone currently unlocked?
To check, put it into fastboot mode manually without adb:
Turn off your device. Then turn on your device again while holding volume down button.
Plug in your device. Use fastboot:
Code:
fastboot oem device-info
Post screenshots.
Reboot your phone. Post a screenshot of your "About phone" settings menu.

I also tried this way.But not miflash tool. I use twrp to flash global stable rom,boot up the rom and flash twrp through fastboot.And then you can flash your favourite rom.

Hi,
sorry to hijack this thread, but i also have problem flashing TWRP.
I have unlocked phone.
I have USB debugging enabled.
I can reboot to fastboot via adb.
I ca flash twrp (twrp-3.0.2-1-gemini.img 25.2M 2016-07-19 18:48:36 EDT).
But when i go to recovery i still see Mi PcSuite thing. No twrp.
What am i doing wrong? IS there some other, more appropriate twrp image?

I got mine sorted out, what you are missing is when you are done flashinh you have to type "Fastboot reboot" and then set TWRP to default recovery
hope that helps you out

Same problem for me, when i type "Fastboot reboot", my Mi5 reboot quickly and after when i go to recovery i see also Mi PC Suite....
Do you have a workaround ?
Second question, is it normal that time to send TWRP.img to phone in ADB is only 0,9s ?

Stuck in Oneplus logo. Can't access recovery. Fastboot working.

Hi everyone.
I was trying to flash Nitrogen OS. First I flashed the latest firmware, then the actual rom and then GAPPS. After that my mobile got stuck in Oneplus logo without being able to go into recovery mode.
I tried using fastboot to flash the files in this thread(https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/how-to/unbrick-unbrick-tutorial-oneplus-3t-t3515306) which worked once, but even after that I can't surpass the logo screen.
I've been trying to look for information but I can't find anything.
To clarify:
- I already tried erasing userdata and cache from fastboot
-I already tried flashing recovery images from twrp, stock and bluspark
Thanks in advance guys.

Which TWRP are you using? Which firmware are you flashing? You can't access recovery at all? I've run into plenty of bricks like this and I'm usually able to get back to recovery by forcing the device off (vol up + power hold) and rebooting back to recovery. and if that doesn't work I can at least get to the bootloader and re-flash a recovery file.

I was using last bluspark recovery. I was flashing OB21 when everything happened.
There is no way I can access to recovery. I tried reflashing the stock recovery from that unbricking thread with all the other things through fastboot and I can't boot into recovery at all. It is the first time I face this error so I am lost.

okay, well what I would do is boot into the bootloader, and then reflash the blu_spark recovery via adb so you can boot into it. then wipe everything and restart. but this time I would try the OB 20 firmware and not the 21. when I was on NOS I used that one and it worked just fine. I'm not sure if it made a difference, but I flashed the firmware both right before and right after flashing NOS

I mean idk if you wanna do this, but you could always try to "format userdata", then flash the stock recovery, and then sideload OOS. but you would lose all of your data in your internal storage, and it's still not a guarantee. there are some posts about doing a full wipe and starting from scratch. I'd look into those. Best of luck reviving your OP3T

Then just do the Qualcomm restore and unlock, boot to fastboot and flash the latest TWRP. Then boot into TWRP and format cache partitions, system and data and then adb sideload using this option under TWRP advanced to flash firmware zip, NitrogenOS zip and then 8.1 Gapps and try booting to see if same thing happens again. You are using the NitrogenOS stock kernel and not some other?

None of that answer what he actually asked, which is: what was the output (error message, result, etc.) when you tried to flash TWRP?
Did it flash successfully, but still can't boot to TWRP? Or else, what was the exact error message?
In general, when asking for help and giving status, be specific as possible, and give as many details as possible. Saying you "tried xxx" or "it did not work" is not specific enough.
Seems silly, but I've seen a lot of times where it's as simple as the user not using the correct command or entering the right file name.

There were no errors when flashing TWRP. When I tried rebooting using fastboot(fastboot boot recovery.img) it got stuck in the message saying booting up... and the only thing that changed was that my phone left the bootloader screen to a screen with the Oneplus logo and a fastboot mode message under it.
The command I used was fastboot flash recovery recovery.img(Name of the actual recovery file)

Okay, literally. What are you doing? How can you mess up this badly?
I would help you, but I can't figure out what you are saying.
You cannot "lose" your ROM after installing TWRP, it is not possible. You must have installed it as the system image or something.
"fastboot flash recovery twrp.img", how can you mess that up?
Anyway... I can't tell whether your problem has been resolved or not, but, be careful in the future.

Download and flash this twrp then flash factory rom
https://forum.xda-developers.com/Mi-9/development/recovery-unofficial-twrp-xiaomi-mi-9-t3905825
After flash factory rom,into fastboot,flash recovery.img in factory rom,you can unzip rom and find it
Or you can flash with fastboot update
Just Into

Hi all, thanks for ur reply.. The problem solved after tried manual install via fastboot command prompt, got update via ota and succeed.

help please root mi8

hello everyone
Buy a Chinese mi8, unlock it waiting for the days that xiaomi tells you.
I installed the global version, and everything works correctly, but I want to change the rom.
I've tried to install TWRP with adb and it's impossible, it tells me the ADB template that OKEY, but never restarts in recovery mode with TWRP, so I can not install magisk, or any rom that is not official.
Is there any way to install a ROM (.zip) without TWRP?, how do I do Root without magisk? Has it happened to anyone?
thanks!

First of all, you're in the wrong section.
Second you should install via fastboot as described a thousand times AND reboot directly to your TWRP image via fastboot command.
The you can flash another from and root it.
Third, I'd like to strongly advice you to do some research about android, flashing etc to make sure that you know what you are doing.... So many people are moaning about bricked devices....

It's not the first cell phone I've flashed that you're not smart.
I have followed the steps as they are, and as you can see in the image, everything seems to be installed correctly. But whenever I restart in recovery mode, I get the xiaomi no twrp.

You are rebooting your device with fastboot reboot. In this case your twrp is wiped out by the XIAOMI recovery. Use: fastboot boot yourimagename.
btw, why are you using such an old TWRP? You won't be able to flash actual roms.
So I'd like to come back to my advice in the first answer....

It's not the first cell phone I've flashed that you're not smart.
I have followed the steps as they are, and as you can see in the image, everything seems to be installed correctly. But whenever I restart in recovery mode, I get the xiaomi no twrp.
Do you know why?

I've tried twrp-3.3.1-0-dipper too, and fastboot boot xxxx.img.
And it hasn't been restarted either.

Use the all in one tool, to remove encryption and flash a compatible TWRP.

Thanks for the help.
But all the steps that indicate, I have passed them and I never install the TWRP correctly.
1. my mobile phone is unlocked (with the padlock open)
2. I have the official rom installed
3. I try to install twrp with all the commands you have told me, and I never restart the mobile with twrp. I've tried new, intermediate and older versions. and nothing
Is there any way to install an unofficial rom without TWRP?

You can't flash a ROM without TWRP and Magisk is the only way you can root your phone that I know of. If you don't even know these simple things/haven't done simple research you might risk to softbrick or even hardbrick your new and shiny phone. There are many guides on how to flash TWRP but you can PM me if you want more help.
Also you don't install TWRP with adb, you need to use fastboot...
