Since in my last post I made a complete mess out of my first time trying to root my K20 and install lineage I wanted to my make a separate post so that I can list all the steps I need to take to correctly setup my phone how I want it.
What I actually want
A rooted device
Lineage OS
Minimal excess files (A clean Install)
Current Steps
Unlock and flash recovery
Backup
Format Data! (It's important if you come from Miui)
Install Q Firmware + vendor
Install LineageOS followed by gapps
Reboot into system and setup device.
Reboot into recovery and flash magisk
Profit???
Feel free to tell me how stupid I am and what I need to add to the list or steps I should take to make this process better.
I also dont know if its possible to get recovery and rom on android 10 versions.
Thanks
Did these steps not work?

They may work as it but I was just wondering if anyone could go into more detail or if there was a better approach and from what Kollachi said there clearly is a better way that what I said.
Since I'm in stock ROM and haven't ever flashed AOSP ROM in this phone I'll just back off lol

I like the details steps but I have a few questions.
(Unlock and flash recovery) From what I can tell there are two recovery's Orange fox and TWRP
(Format data) Just format data or are there other sections I should format/wipe
(Install Q Firmware + Vendor) I have no idea what Q firmware is or what vendor you are referring to
(Install Lineage + gapps) Is there a specific version from the Mi 9T pro since the official site doesn't list it
Any of the two recoveries will work. Q firmware means Android Q. Wile data/cache dalvik that's it. Regarding firmware, there's a clear topic of Lineage OS in K20 Pro forum which is still in unofficially state

1. You can take what you want. Orangefox is based on TWRP.
2. Format data is needed if you come from miui. If you did it you are good to go. But it wouldn't be false to wipe system, dalvic, cache
3.https://downloads.akhilnarang.me/MIUI/raphael/ --> Take 10.4.6.0 or 10.4.8.0 (Android 10 = Q)
4. No there is no specific version.

I would recommend the latest TWRP from here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/k2...icial-twrp-xiaomi-redmi-t3944363/post79823568
The dev is an official TWRP dev, so this version, or something very close to this, is likely to become official in the future.
OrangeFox is a heavily modified TWRP and has a lot of added functionality specific to MIUI. If you wanted to stay on stock MIUI, but debloat and have root, etc. then OF would be the better choice, as it has functionality that lets it play nicely with MIUI (it can remain installed when OTA updates are installed)
As someone new to flashing on Android, I would suggest downloading a 10.4.x fastboot ROM from the site I pointed to in your other post, then follow the same procedure to flash the ROM.
Make your choice based on Kollachi's info and what's important to you (HD Netflix - choose Indian, or a working NFC - choose Chinese)
However you MUST change the flash option to 'clean all'.
At this point you've got a nice squeaky clean starting point.
Boot into the ROM at least once, though it's not necessary to go through all the setup.
After that follow Kollachi's steps but you can now ignore the step to flash vendor and firmware as it's all part of the fastboot ROM already flashed.
Wipe cache and dalvik, format data.
There is no official LOS for this phone yet. Hopefully it will go official in the future.
For now just get the current Android 10 based LOS from here.

When ever I think I have the process memories and I follow the steps on my screen I still somehow **** this up and I cant understand how.
My current steps include
Flash the fastboot with the ROM that you linked me in my first post
Flash the recovery with TWRP (Every time I have then tried going back into TWRP is failed to work and prompted the original MIUI recovery)
Install the TWRP zip from custom recovery to try and fix the issue above (Only had this work once on orangefox and then never had success again)
So now I try to just flash the recovery and boot to it using CMD and it works fine
Move the lineageOS files from my PC to the phone SDCard
If I wipe data and the caches as suggested then the lineageOS zip is now go and I am back to flashing the fastboot ROM to restart the process
I know this might seem like im either stupid or just not getting it but could you or anyone else please make a bullet pointed list with links to what I have to download in order to actually achieve this since I cant do anything correctly even when trying to follow the steps.
(Im going to sleep since I have been trying to do this for hours now and I will check reply's in the morning.
Thanks for the help so far EVERYONE

I just told you what I have done and I'm running it so far without issues.
Robbo just said you should flash the whole Chinese or indian rom but I don't like his steps because:
1. File is much bigger
2. MiFlash is just meh
3. If you forgot to change the flash process you are bricked if you don't take the correct firmware for your phone.
Default option in Miflash is set to "Clean all and lock". Every time you use it, you will need to change it into "clean all" or something other.

Yes flashing the whole fastboot ROM does add the risk, if you forget to change the flash option, but you are guaranteed a clean slate and so less likely to have any niggling issues that nobody else has. I would bet large sums of money that many of the issues you see on here, where only one person has some problem and everyone else is fine, would be solved by fastboot flashing MIUI before installing the ROM of choice.
If you know what you're doing and know when you'll be OK with what you've got and know when it's best to start clean, then going with the vendor and firmware is easier.
But if your unsure and new to flashing on Android phones, I will always suggest go with the overkill and know you've got the clean slate to start with.

It's sounds like the main issue is stock recovery is being restored. This is something that MIUI will do when it boots up.
When you first install TWRP you cannot boot into MIUI before booting to TWRP as you instantly lose TWRP. So you need to boot into TWRP first in order to do something to prevent it being overwritten.
Options are
1
Code:
fastboot boot TWRP.img
2 Use the button combo whilst still in fastboot - power and vol+, hold both until the phone vibrates and the initial logo appears.
Now to keep TWRP you need to either flash a custom ROM, flash Magisk or flash the dm-verity script.
In your case you want to flash LOS, so now you've booted into TWRP go ahead and continue with the steps given.
Also, wait until after you've formatted data before copying everything over. You can access the phone as an MTP device when in TWRP, so you'll be able to connect it to a PC and drag everything across, or you can stick everything on a USB OTG pen, if you have one, TWRP can read data from them too.

The exact problem I have is that I cant transfer any files to the device after formatting the data. I follow the steps correctly and I get into TWRP successfully and then everyone has told me to format the data then install lineage but I cant install the OS if formatting the data removes it.
Get device into fastboot
Flash revocery with TWRP
power the device off
hold volume up and power
boot into custom recovery
format data
move lineageOS onto my device
install lineageOS
reboot
done.
This is the list of exact actions I am doing with no results is there something I am missing or something that is in the wrong order.

After format data, reboot your device into recovery again and transfer LOS, gapps and all files you need.
Format data kills the storage.
I always used to reboot from TWRP back in to TWRP after formatting data, but I've recently seen someone saying that they just unmount data then remount it again. I haven't tried it myself but it certainly makes sense and would be quicker too.

Yes I did that and it worked, unmounting and remounting helps detect the storage in PC

Finally Successful
After a long post I have finally finished the process successfully. This was pretty educational for me since I didn't understand any of this at the start I would like to thank everyone who reply's and all the information that you have provided.
need help guys, i stuck in bootloop.
- fastboot rom global china V10.3.17.0 PFKCNXM
- fastboot twrp 3.3.1
- format data
- flash vendor image cn 10.4.6.0
- wipe cache/dalvik
- flash lineage os
- flash gapps nano
- reboot
- stuck bootloop
Hey everyone - long time lurker/researcher, but generally good at searching for answers without bugging anyone. This one has me stumped.
I have a Mi 9 CN model (6/128) that has been unable to make phone calls with the main mic without having to toggle Speakerphone on/off
I've tried 3 different custom roms (Xiaomi.eu, Pixel Experience, Evolution), and the Global MIUI 11 rom, but nothing seems to help fix it.
I have the newest version of TWRP installed right now (3.3.1-46), I have tried with and without Magisk installed....right now I don't even have TWRP installed at all on the Global rom.
Same happens for my SO's Mi 9 too as well.
Is there something I'm missing? I've tried turning off WiFi Calling/OK Google detection/VoLTE, rebooted, cleared cache/ cleared data inbetween new ROM installs....
Hardware test shows Main and Top as PASS.
Any tips would be appreciated! I feel like I've tried everything possible.
Thanks in advance~

Your TWRP is right.
Try to flash syberia with recommended vendor exactly step by step and of course really clean install with formatted data yes.
If this isn't working I'll think you've got to flash via pc the stock and then again a custom ROM.

I'm actually going to follow the Evolution instructions (just missed the part about flashing EEA)
So i'm using MiFlash with the MIUI11 EEA boot rom file, then I'll do the normal TWRP -> format data -> install Evolution ROM and test.
Thanks!
So it seems like I'm completely out of luck at this point - I've tried basically everything I can think of, and I think something big must be wrong with the phone's file system.
I've followed Evolution's steps to a T (minus MiFlash having an error at the end of the EEA flashing, but the firmware seeming to load fine) and still run into the no Mic issue.
"Flash MIUI11 eea with miflash
Flash vbmeta.img with "fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img --disable-verity --disable-verification" (Download here)
Flash TWRP
Wipe (dont wipe system/vendor)
Format data
Reboot recovery
Flash rom
Reboot system"
Wipe (don't wipe system/vendor) I assume means just a normal factory reset wipe via TWRP, which I've tried.
I've tried both fw+vendor files (the newest for Android 10 and newest from Xiaomi.eu)
Any other last suggestions before I assumed the phone is broken?
Try to flash xiaomi.eu_multi_MI9_9.11.7_v11-10.zip
With miflash and after factory reset.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/xi...iaomi.eu_multi_MI9_9.11.7_v11-10.zip/download
SO! Update here
I was able to use Evolution X's Android 9 instructions to get everything working fine....but everytime I try to duplicate that for MIUI 11 it does not work.
Reboot to recovery
- Flash the latest 9.8.1 vendor image or full stock ROM.
- Reboot to twrp and format data
- Wipe cache/dalvik
- Reboot back to recovery and flash
I tested using the newest Xiaomi.EU Vendor for Android 10 and the stock one with no luck....more thoughts?
Did you try turning off the VoLTE?
Hello there,
I'm using the Xiaomi.eu latest Beta rom ATM. I'm trying to flash other roms (like lineage OS 17.1 for example) but it seems to reboot to fastboot everytime. I've tried doing a clean flash, formatting data, dirty flashing. Nothing seems to help it boot into the new rom.
Clearly I'm doing something wrong. If I try flashing the recommended Chinese vendor firmware (stable version), I get an error 7..but my TWRP is up to date as recommended.
If anyone has any idea where I'm going wrong, that would help a lot.
Thanks

Don't know what your doing wrong, but this is my failsafe method should nothing else work.
Flash the latest Chinese 11.0.5 fastboot ROM. Make sure you don't lock the bootloader if using the Mi Flash Tool.
Boot into MIUI once to allow it to finalise the install, you don't need to do the initial phone setup once it boots into MIUI.
Boot into fastboot and install TWRP. I recommend the latest from mauronofrio which should be 3.1.1-32
Boot immediately into TWRP. I use the volume up button while powering up the phone.
Perform a factory reset in TWRP (using the swipe button), then format data (need to type 'yes' to confirm).
Reboot into TWRP using the TWRP boot menu, this ensures the newly formatted data partition is correctly mounted.
Copy over the ROM you want and GApps if needed, then flash.
Boot into your new ROM, everything should be OK. Then boot back into TWRP to install Magisk if you want root.
Yep that seems to have done the trick. At first I was getting frustrated because I thought I was downloading the right Chinese ROM, turns out I was downloading the recovery version instead of the fastboot one.
I think it wasn't working because I was on the beta channel. Switching over to the stable channel meant I had to go through a fastboot flash apparently. I've seen this before on my OP3.
Got lineage OS loaded, thanks for your help!
Here I bring to you the official Havoc-os 4.X ROM Android 11 and fully functional on Redmi 8
The intention of this post is to make a step-by-step tutorial on the installation of this excellent GSI ROM on Redmi 8 and give assistance in the installation process
All the development credits for this wonderful ROM go to the Havoc team
@Ruturaj Kadam
@jhenrique09
@SKULSHADY
Remember I am not a developer, if you are presenting any bugs let us know and you can contact the Havoc team on Telegram
I am not responsible for any damage caused to your device by not following the steps or negligence at the time of this process, All the steps were carried out and tested on my personal device and are confirmed, My device Redmi 8 3/32, the version that i tested Havoc-OS-v4.5-20210208-Official-arm64-ab.img.xz
Bugs
videos recorded with the default camera do not play
Update: Install the NGCam_7.4.104-v1.8-fix.apk Once the application is installed open it take a photo close the application, this will create a folder in the SD called Gcam, inside the Gcam folder create a folder and call it Config7 and inside this place the XML file Redmi 8 GCam 7.4.104.314953318 G_Modder.xml restart the application and you're done
the only bugs that have is slow motion record not work for now
Automatic brightness does not work
Update: to fix the automatic brightness on your device, after installing the ROM, put in the folder SYSTEM-OVERLAY the treble-overlay-xiaomi-redmi 8.apk and set the permission for the apk on 644 ( use root explorer ) and reboot ..... problem solved
the necessary files are at the end of the tutorial
Steps
Note: I did the installation coming from Mui 12.EU, and there was no problem in the installation process or in the boot process
If you come from Miui12 .EU or any other GSI Rom go to step 4, if you come from the Rom stock follow the this steps
1- First make a backup of all the necessary information in case something goes wrong you can easily recover, Charge the battery at least 80%
All your data will be deleted during the process
2- Unlock the Bootloader if you have not already done it or do not know how to, follow this post: http://en.miui.com/unlock/
3- Install a custon recovery, if you dont know how to, follow this post: https://c.mi.com/thread-2850424-1-0.html
4- Make wipe only to Cache, Dalvik, System, Data and Internal SD
5- Format data,( if it doesn't format the data you will have bootloop) then Reboot into Recovery
6- Copy all the files to the phone (Havoc-OS-v4.X-20200522-Official-arm64-ab.img you can find it by unpacking the zip), Magisk,Magisk Path Fix, Permisiver, Certification Patch.zip, opengapp (recommended nano or pico)
7- Install system image to system partition (on TWRP go to install-Install image-System) .
8- Flash Permisiver v5 (on TWRP go to install selec permisver_v5.zip)
9- Resize system partition to flash opengapps (on TWRP go to Wipe-Advanced Wipe-Select System on the list-Repair or Change File System-Resize)
To Root
once you have installed an resized the system
10- Flash the Magisk path fix (on TWRP go to install selec MagiskA11_PATH_fix.zip)
11- Flash Magisk (on TWRP go to install selec Magisk-v23.0.zip)
12- Flash Opengapps
1-Flash Certification Patch
1 - Make a wipe to Cache and Dalvik
1- Reboot
The boot process takes 5 to 10 minutes the first boot, in case of any problem in any of the stages you can reinstall Miui version fastboot with Mi flash tool and start again

Hey !
I have a stupid question. Do you upload the GSI ROM and the other files on a SD card or on the internal storage ? I was searching this guide on the morning but I was wondering about that...
Thanks for your answer

You can place it in either of the two, as long as you can access the storage where you placed them from the recovery

You can place it in either of the two, as long as you can access the storage where you placed them from the recovery

Thanks for the answer
UPDATE :
I bricked my phone. When i arrived to the step 5 and i rebooted into fastboot (i would reboot into recovery...)
So, what can I do ? I installed MiFlashTool to unbrick my phone, if it can...

fastboot boot twrp.img
downloading 'boot.img'...

Hi, I need to know some things to help you, what ROM did you have before flashing Havoc? do you have the bootloader unlocked? When did you use My flashtool, what method did you use?

In my particular case it was not necessary to flash vbmmeta as I comment in the OP I come from Miui12.eu, but it is necessary to avoid problems whatever the ROM you have before installing Havoc is to have the latest version of TWRP and have configured a lock pattern security in ROM access and in the flashing process I didn´t have problems
Hey!
I was on the stock ROM when i started to flash HavocOs.
I unbricked my phone with the MIUnlockTool V2 and my phone's still alive.
I booted on TWRP with fastboot boot TWRP.img 'cuz I can't boot to TWRP with volume up and power...
How can I flash HavocOs in the good way ?
I have Redmi 8 3/32 like you...

Ok the first thing is that you have the bootloader unlocked, if it is that way regardless of the stock version of the rom you have when installing twrp you must install magisk to ensure that the Recovery remains fixed in this link is a tutorial on how to install it, that tutorial was made by me and approved by Xiaomi https://c.mi.com/thread-2850424-1-0.html ,
install the latest version of TWRP and as it says in the tutorial then flash magisk, once you have everything ready install miui 12.eu do not do many settings except create a blocking pattern when starting the rom this is used by TWRP to be able to decrypt the internal memory
All ready do the steps as indicated in this tutorial (If you come from Miui12 .EU or any other GSI Rom go to step 4)
If for some reason you have a problem, use MI flashtool to return to the stock rom, but make sure to use the snapdragon method, select MIflash and when opening the screen at the bottom select clean all, this will prevent you from blocking the bootloader and you can start again without problems (note when selecting clean all at the end it will give you an error for not being able to block the bootloader and the device will restart, do not worry it will restart normally without problems)

Hey!
I thought about something this afternoon : if I flash HavocOS with adb and fastboot, we also haven't any problems with TWRP installation ! But the problem is that I haven't found any wiki to do that and i won't transform my phone to a beta tester....
Thanks a lot for your help but I think i will wait until a custom rom of LineageOs or HavocOs...
Hi . I am currently running havoc is 3.12 on my device I tried multiple times to flash this ROM without any success. Is not installing open gapps a problem ? Anyways when I flash this rom without flashing the certification patch I get a no os installed warning before rebooting from orange fox recovery but when I flash the certification I no longer get this message. Etherway I am getting stuck on a bootloop . How can I solve this issue? I did all the steps correctly wiping the correct partitions and formating data . Edit I wiped cache and dalvik after the bootloop without any success .

Hey !
I had the same bug before installing the v3.12 version.
I think it goes from the Permissiver v5. I think we should flash it to have the Havoc v4.
I'll test later if I have the time to do this and I'll inform you about the possibilities.
Hope I can help.

Finally managed to flash Magisk on Havoc 4.1 with the help of youtuberking (telegram and YouTube).
How: just flash Magisk path fix before magisk and it's good to go.
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
