Can't Boot Into Recovery - Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers

I was using MIUI 9 Global Stable and I had TWRP installed as my custom recovery. Recently, I have installed CRDroid with TWRP. I performed a full wipe including system, dalvik cache, data. Also I have flashed CRDroid succesfully. But now, I can't boot into recovery mode. I tried in various ways. I tried with KEY-COMBO of my phone (redmi 4x), tried with flashify, tried with power menu option of CRDroid to boot into recovery. But the phone just reboot as normal. It doesn't boot into recovery. Don't understanding what is the problem Does anybody have any idea? Please help

I too have a redmi 4x and have faced this problem too...
I tried various methods to solve it but the only two that work are (a) make a "clean" install : rom and twrp both or (b) switch to Resurrection Remix because the rom I've used and that supports redmi 4x is this one (in my opinion)...
try this and if any problem occurs contact me on [email protected] .

Did you try the keycombo power, volume up and volume down at the same time?
When you see the mi-logo release only the powerbutton.
I had the same Problem after flashing crdroid.
The problem was my firmware V025, with firmware V027 i can boot into recovery from power menu option.

Cannot install Twrp

Hello, today i installed a custom ROM for my redmi 4x (santoni) and i realized that i cannot root it. Any help?
I've tried installing twrp with no success, the rom has some options like rebooting in recovery, in fastboot, but they do not work either, they just reboot the phone. The ROM that i'm using is the aosp extended oreo 8.1. Any help would be appreciated

What you want to install twrp or root ..??
If you have twrp and you cant go thru rom then power off your phone
Press vol+ and vol- and power button simultaneously... release power button after you will show mi logo but dont release vol+ or vol- button
You'll in recovery
Use supersu or magisk to root your phone
And flash latest firmware to fix this issue.. mostly time old firmware with custom roms doesn't support reboot to recovery...

You need to format data in twrp, reboot to recovery in twrp, do a factory reset then flash eu rom.
or use this twrp https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78047648&postcount=14

I had also bootloop problem but got it working with this twrp https://drive.google.com/file/d/1X39kp3oBz-SYD-fNK-uEgD6VlUUG-WMq/view
1. Boot twrp
2. Wipe -> format data then reboot, transfer rom to device, enter to fastbootmode and boot twrp again
3. install rom and after that wipe dalvik and cache
4. now it should work
The rom what i installed was xiaomi eu stable
i found another twrp and now i have xiaomi.eu dev, thanks for the help

what twrp?
I installed the twrp mentioned by maketzu111. Then I wiped data. Then rebooted into the twrp
Then I flashed "xiaomi.eu_multi_MI8SE_V10.0.1.0.OEBCNFH_v10-8.1.zip" from the miui 10.1 stable sourceforge page. It is stuck on the mi splash-logo for a very long time. what's happening?

You did format the data? What i have read it's the main reason why device goes bootloop if you didn't do that. Rom isn't installed properly if the device stuck to bootloop or in this case stucks to loading screen

Recovery booting problem

Hi,
I am on xiaomi.eu weekly Android 10.
My device cant boot to any recovery. I flashed them all (3.3.0, 3.3.1, 3.2.3 or PicthBlack)
I flash them all successfully but none of them opens, they all stuck at recovery logo screen.
If I format my userdata and cache, twrp opens,but I dont want to wipe data every week.
Why all recoveries stuck? Does anyone have an idea?
Last time I format everything, installed 3.3.1 and installed rom. It works but I still couldnt open any recovery. (fastboot boot .img or volume up + power has same results)
This one solved the problem

Can't access twrp 3.4.0.1, H870

Hello,
I've installed twrp 3.4.0.1 via fastboot, but after I select yes when i'm asked about erasing my data, the phone just boot up normally without deleting any of my data, but does not enter twrp either. Tried 3.4.0.0 too, no luck. Only 3.3.1.0 worked, but when I try to backup it says something like 'can't mount system partition' and some other errors. I think that version is too old for my rom, so I'm afraid to use it for backup/flash. My phone is LG G6 H870, Android 9, software version V30b. The phone is not rooted, the bootloader is unlocked. Tried to erase cache partition and install twrp 3.4.01 again, didn't work. I can't install Skyhawk or Orangefox becuase I can't use twrp.
Is anybody facing this problem too?
Thanks!

HI You need to use OrangeFox recovery or SkyHawk. If you plan to go to 10, then you need SkyHawk. And I think SkyHawk is maintained but OrangeFox not.

SkyHawk https://sourceforge.net/projects/pa-g6/files/Releases/SHRP/20.07.2020/H870/
OrangeFox https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g6/development/recovery-orangefox-recovery-project-t3943594

So can I install SkyHawk via fastboot over stock recovery without installing twrp beforehand? I see there are multiple files in the shyhawk zip, should I only extract the recovery img and install it via fastboot? I'm kinda new to this, thanks!

HI. It is made to flash in TWRP (same as OrangFox) So I really don't know if that recovery.img flashing through Fastboot works. Never tried, sorry.
Maybe someone knows though.

Ok, thanks, I'll try to find a solution, or maybe I'll just wait for the next version of twrp.
You should try installing the recovery and immediately installing any custom rom, when i flashed twrp the first time i had to do it several times cause somehow it got "erased" every time i noot the stock OS.
Ig you don't want to install a custom rom try right after installing twrp and on the fastboot screen to reboot to recovery with (Volume - ) button and power.
I think the idea is not letting the Stock os boot
Also that error. i have the same problem, the only moment it doesn't appear is when you wipe all data with the "Format Data" option inside "Wipe" menu in twrp.
After you boot to the OS once and go back to recovery it will come again everytime you flash something.
Not sure if its a problem or not, because i've dirty installed some updates and also installed gapps and magisk even with that error.
Im currently in A10 using Havoc and NikGapps.
TWRP 3.2.3-0

Yes, I know I have to install twrp again every time I let the stock rom boot, but the only version of twrp working is 3.2.3 and I think that was released before the G6 received official Android 9 update, so that's why I'm not very confident using it. I've tried to enter recovery immediately after I've installed it, so I don't think that's the problem.
I have the same problem on the LG G6 H870. I won't get to TWRP. I tried several versions of TWRP and nothing.
Edit.
This twrp is functional:
https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=289997
After installation using fastboot, restart directly to twrp using power+vol. down.
Finally i've successfully flashed Skyhawk using TWRP 3.3.1, so thanks everyone for advice!
Still couldn't make official TWRP 3.4.0/3.4.0.1 work.

Hi, I don't know if this goes here, I hope you can help me, I update twrp from version 3.1 to 3.4 and now I can't access twrp, how can I fix it?
Hello again, I answer myself, and if it helps someone else, using adb fastboot with twrp 3.2 Melina solves it and twrp works perfectly again.

Custom recovery won't open...

My phone name and model is redmi 9c (angelica) variant..i will get straight to the point..i installed an updated version of my from 12.0.22 to 12.5.4.0 through orange fox recovery...i flashed the recovery by dirty flashing where i just cleared cache and delvik ART or something...then just flashed the whole update zip file through recovery.. everything was working and no problem then i just thought that i would open the custom recovery and it will not open and will kept itself stuck in recovery image or start image of the recovery not open or closing.. nothing worked until i thought i should just factory reset my phone but it won't factory reset itself and will get stuck on that same custom recovery logo and i had manually force it open like i did by press and holding the power button until it vibrated..it opened like normal shut down or restart...so i my phone couldn't be formatted so what i did was to download the fastboot version of my phone that i had installed and took the recovery.img file and flashed it through another phone through bugjaeger app..since i don't have a pc that all i could do and it worked the stock recovery came back and i can wipe my data if i want....but if i installed the custom recovery.img once again it won't work and will get stuck like that time so i want a solution where i can get custom recovery back again...and i gave my full story because someone might be in a similar position as me and by doing something that i did might just help them and also i want a solution to get my custom recovery back plz someone help me.....
you should know that there is a version of Pbrp Vendor R (Miui 12.5), it is the one that works but has encryption, it is unfortunate but if you have MicroSD you will have no problem installing magisk
