P10 VTR-L09 flash roms? - Huawei P10 Questions & Answers

Today i spent all day doing the following:
1. Unlocked bootloader
2. Rooted
3. Installed TWRP
4. Installed SU
Can someone please help me guide me how to flash either a custom rom or an original?. All guides im looking at everywhere show how to do it using original recovery mode on the P10.
I want to use the TWRP since i've now installed it.

There is only one ROM for P10 (as far as I know) fRomFuture, and that is flash through TWRP

You can't flash an original ROM via twrp. The filesystem is encrypted and the original firmware isn't a flash able image.
And custom ROMs aren't a thing for the P10, yet...sadly.
There's only one custom rom by fRomFuture, but it's based on original B164.
If you read the tutorials and the hand full of threads about this, you should already know this.

After backing up whatever personal data you want to keep (by your method of choice). You should be able to just do full wipe (default wipe in TWRP - data, cache, and Dalvik); then just flash the full update zip in TWRP: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/how-to/official-oxygenos-5-0-1-android-8-0-t3728119
If you want to keep TWRP, do not reboot after flashing the update zip. Either flash root (Magisk or SuperSU) of a modified kernel to keep TWRP. Otherwise, TWRP will be replaced with stock recovery.
Things like relocking the bootloader are purely optional, and only if you want "fully stock". Do not have TWRP or any other mods (root, modded kernel, etc.) installed when relocking the bootloader, or else the phone will not boot (and you may need to use the unbrick tool!).
Otherwise, if you think you may do other mods in the future (custom ROM, root, etc.) just leave the bootloader unlocked.
The previously suggested method works fine as well (flashing recovery images with fastboot), although the file versions are pretty old. It somewhat depends on what exact state you want afterwards. "Full stock" versus TWRP for mods.

TWRP flashing problem in Android P

I successfully unlocked the bootloader and rooted my Mi A2 using the patched boot img method (flashing the patched boot image with Magisk to root). But now I want to install a custom ROM and for that, I need to install TWRP. I tried to find a lot in forums but couldn't find any help with Android Pie as TWRP doesn't decrypt storage in Pie. So can somebody help this newbie with flashing TWRP in my rooted Mi A2 with Android Pie.

So what I think I have to do is to go to fastboot mode and boot recovery.img, after that, I need to wipe everything (will lose my root and stock ROM) and then it will act like how it would from the guide by flashing the custom ROM, and then changing slots and stuff.

Updating rooted MI A2 by OTA

Hi
I have mi a2 rooted on 10.0.8.0 with magisk. I wanted to know how could update through OTA.
This is my first time rooting a device so I am a bit worried about bricking the device so please mention the procedure in detail.
As you obviously have unlocked phone, it is easier to flash via fastboot the latest stock 10.0.10.0 ROM image http://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.0.10.0...0.PDIMIXM_20190611.0000.00_9.0_9e6473956a.tgz
Guides are in corresponding section of this forum. Note to use "flash_all_except_data.bat" (and not other command files in ROM image) to have your data safe.
Then get patched boot image https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79757523&postcount=28 , boot into it and restore root.
If you still decide to update by OTA, read appropriate Guide in corresponding section of this forum (uninstall Magisk restoring stock boot., etc.), but even if you have not changed /system and correctly restore boot, you can encounter bootloop after "successful" OTA, nobody yet knows why... and then you'll still return to flashing stock ROM via fastboot.
There is a guide on Mi A2 lite's forum just for this thing. It's been 3 months since I rooted my phone and I've been following the steps mentioned there and it works. It's a bit hit and miss but I've learned to work my way around the problems.

Xiaomi mi 8 se global/eu rom

Hi guys, I'm new here. I haven't been playing with custom roms for a while now but I have xiaomi mi 8 se for which I would like to set up a custom global/eu rom. I read a lot of posts here and tried to do it but without access. First I applied to unlock my device via Xiaomi procedure, waited X hours and then went to download and install rom from here: https://mifirm.net/model/sirius.ttt#global
That's when I realized that I have to find fastboot rom for this way of flashing and there isn't one for global or eu version. After a bit more reasearch I decided to do it on my own with TWRP (just found out how that works). So I downloaded one from here: https://mifirm.net/model/sirius.ttt#twrp and after some time (and a lot of small steps I learned along the way) I got it installed.
Then I downloaded non fastboot EU rom and tried to flash it through recovery(twrp). Problem here is that the whole recovery is in chinese so I had to watch other people videos and compare location of buttons so I'm not sure I pressed everything correct. After "flashing" phone stuck in fastboot boot loop. Here I panicked I bricked the phone and downloaded "normal" chinese rom with fastboot and flashed that MIU flash tool. This went well so now I have factory reset phone with the same/similar rom I had before. I know this is an old device and probably there isn't some easy solution but I would love to hear if someone with more experience can give me some advice how to correctly flash eu rom (non fastboot). Also is there some version of twrp that isn't chinese and it would be perfect if I can flash twrp with fastboot (if thats possible).
For recovery: Link
Recommend to factory reset from TWRP before flashing any ROM. And speaking of custom ROM, can I recommend to you the Pixel Experience? It's the most solid ROM right now. If you are interested, you can try out.
Hello NesaiOmachi, thank you very much for your advice. Pixel experience looks great, my only prerequisite is that it has google play services support so will definitely check it out. I found this page with ROM downloads, can you please also point me which version to choose and which twrp (from your url) is compatible with it?
I assume I have to install twrp with ADB tools from my PC (already have that setup up), then I enter TWRP and do something like this: https://nerdschalk.com/how-to-install-a-custom-rom-using-twrp-recovery/
EDIT: just saw there are instructions at pixel experience site, awesome! Ignore my message, will try with latest twrp and latest pixel rom and see how it goes

Question Downgrading from stock A12 to Xiaomi EU A11

I'm planning to go from stock 13.0.2 A12 to Xiaomi EU 13.0.10 A11. Based on what I read, this is what I have to do:
- Unlock bootloader (which will factory reset the phone).
- Start fastboot mode.
- Connect to PC.
- Download the ROM (Recovery for RN11, since it's downgrade I'll have to factory reset but it'll already be done during bootloader unlock)
- Run first_time_installation.bat (or something like that).
Are these steps correct? This will be the first time I flash a ROM and I really don't want to mess it up. Thanks in advance!
The first step is correct, you must unlock the booloader. However, you can't install Xiaomi.eu ROM on fastboot mode, that's only for stock ROMs. If you try to do that using a custom ROM, it could brick your phone. For Xiaomi.eu (or any other custom ROM) you need to install first a custom recovery like TWRP: first downlaod the custom recovery file, then copy it into the storage and then install it. You can do the last 2 things with CMD commands . Then copy the custom ROM file like any other file into the phone's storage, restart the phone on recovery mode and install the ROM from the TWRP interface. I did it like a month ago, I don't remember all the details though. Just look for a tutorial, it's not that hard.
Good luck.

Haha thanks for your reply! This came a bit late, it has been exactly a month since I flashed but I hope this could help someone else. Spes/spesn is listed as recovery on the list but the Android 11 versions only come in Fastboot. When I unlocked bootloader, I had already prepared Pixel Experience and Xiaomi.eu ROM. PE's recovery gave me bootloop so I used the next thing available and flashed Xiaomi.eu .bat file.
I was a bit worried when it was stuck on the same screen for 15 minutes but then it loaded with no problem. Not really sure if I did the right thing or I was just lucky
