[Recovery](KENZO)TWRP-COFFACE (3.0.0) No patched boot.img required to flash MIUI roms

Hi All,
You guys must be thinking why i'm sharing this recovery when we already have Official TWRP Recovery
actually this Recovery is Lil bit modified (One of my friend Found it somewhere)
via this Recovery you guys will able to Flash any MIUI Rom without Modifying/Patching Boot.img (I tested it my self)(i flashed miui global stable 7.2.3 and global dev 6.4.28)no patched boot.img required
Note:- I'm Not responsible for any kind Of damage caused to your device
Orignal Link => https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6zD6Bewl4FmQVJGVVBOdzRmT2M/view
Password to the zip :- www.cofface.com
Instructions to flash
download the zip file (link provided)
extract The TWRP recovery.img (password given)
and flash it via flashify or Fastboot
Fastboot Command "Fastboot flash recovery "image-name.img"
yoo done
BUG:- Its not a major bug its not even a bug(i'm just considering it as a bug) but kinda annoying once you flash this recovery this recovery will change your device name from KENZO to CM_KENZO(this not gonna affect anything) but if you will try flash AOSP v4 or anyother AOSP build that verifies the Product name will give some errors
that "This build is for kenzo devices not for Cm_kenzo device"
Solution :- Open the zip in winrar and edit the updater script just change the Kenzo word with CM_Kenzo and it will work (alot of work to do right)
Another solution (this one is better i guess)
when ever you wanna flash MIUi official firmware flash this reocvery via Flashify.
flash the miui rom...
boot it up again flash the official TWRP recovery(so that you will able to flash other roms)
WARNING:- Dont flash miui rom via official TWRP recovery it will not boot untill you flash the Modify boot.img
Update
Bug fixed ===> "This build is for kenzo devices not for Cm_kenzo device"==>No Error now

Seems to work, but TWRP is in Chinese?
I used Cofface's abd + fastboot files and replaced cofface_recovery_twrp_kenzo.img with the fixed TWRP.img provided by Rajdip. I get some prompt from what I can tell, but since everything is in Chinese I don't know what to click. I'll try to find a solution and post it here.
Update (Solved):
I still don't know what the first screen message was about, but you can get into the normal TWRP menu by swiping the slider to the right. After that click the second from the bottom button on the right to get into settings. Press the globe-symbol on the upper tab bar. From there you can choose the language you want TWRP to be in.
Update #2:
Works like a charm for me. Just installed SuperSU as well. I'm on Redmi Note 3 SnapDragon with Global Developer ROM 6.4.14 (MIUI7), officially unlocked bootloader. Thank you very much for posting OP!

The first prompt that appears is whether you would like to make TWRP modify system files or keep it read only. In simple words, if you swiping to the right Mi recovery wont replace TWRP when MIUI roms are flashed. If anyone didnt swipe right on the first prompt, just goto mount and unselect the read-only option.

Nice to know. TWRP asked the same thing (again apparently) when I rebooted from menu to system. It also provided the option to install SuperSU (or rather install the SuperSU Installer - whatever that was worth). I'm confirmed rooted now and recovery is still TWRP after many reboots. :good:

But is 3.0.0.0
I don't understand that

No it will not fix that.... actually the thing Is When we unlock Bootloader with Official method it will not get relock while flashing any rom(via recovery)(miflash can still do that) in unofficial Method we replaces the emmc file with the modified one(and when we flash any official rom this file get replaced as this one is modified and (update. Zip/miuirom.zip) does not verify that emmc and relocks the boot loader....
What This recovery does is...
Miui roms inculde some recovery verification On The first boot
Which means it will replace twrp with the stock miui recovery which will cause bootloop...
For this we need to flash the patched/modified boot.img
But This recovery is Lil modified (it auto patches the boot.img and and our recovery does not get replaced and yoo thats how this recovery successfully flashes miui without a patched boot.img

I'm going to try rebrand.

Its for the first time ever i am unable to unlock the boot loader, i obtained the boot loader unlock code by the following method for my mate 10. Don't know whats went wrong , when i try to unlock the boot loader in fastboot its giving an error. anyone can guide me on this?
Edit: I logout the Huawei Id and also set the usb debugging to Manufacture Mode by using *#*#2846579#*#* and then tried to unlock the boot loader and it worked as a charm.

Your screen is already in "Recovery" and follow message instructions for the next step.

No! you cant flash a full nougat rom with fastboot.
Bootloader cant be downgraded!
for hardbricked phones you have first to boot it using the sdcard img.
then when you get bootloader working without sdcard, can use this tutorial

1. Oreo Battery drains considerably faster than 7.1. (But charges faster too)
2. Fingerprint unlocks slower than 7.1
3. Lags slightly when doing intensive tasks.

Change log: November 18 Security Update
NOTE: Like so many other users, I too updated my device with OREO and stuck with that. I haven't tried downgrading it because I don't want to end up with a hard-bricked device once again. Point here is the new build is not tested. So please take a TWRP backup before using this build. Don't forget to post me even if works fine.

And do you know if bootloader needs to be unlocked in order to downgrade with this guide?

Staying on the same screen, click on the three-dot menu on the top right and go to Choose update package. Now, navigate to the ROM downloaded, select the .zip file and hit OK when prompted.
The phone will verify the compatibility with the MIUI 11 ROM, and upon approval, the update will be flashed.
I flashed this rom too but in twrp because I have root

There is a direct mode that bypasses the update app but you need unlocked bootloader, using miflash tool from pc.
Also you can try to factory reset (saving your data) and retry normal update

You are not alone

Question I got stuck after download some Updates via OTA

Hi there
I am a newbie of Xiaomi Phone. I got a used Mi 11 Ultra phone from a reputable eBay User. My phone is currently installed with a stable version called MIUI 13/.0 (V13.0.12.0.SKACNXM STABLE). Since I am new to this phone, I click on system updates and managed to download a file called xiaomi.eu_Multi_M11Pro_M11Ultra_V13.0.13.0.SKACNXM_618A7FFAB_V13-12.ZIP Via OTA Updates.
After I click on the Updates Button, I got a screen with a green button : "Check MD5 & Install", after a while, I got a pop up screen says :Your device supports "Seamless System Updates",
I click on the OK button, also click on the OK button for the internal storage is encrypted.
Finally, to ask me whether I would like to continue to install the Updates, I choose YES and end up stuck at the Main Menu with 5 choices: Reboot, Wipe Data, Connect with MiAssistant, Safe Mode and Repair Mode. There are no choice for me to install the Updates.
Can someone give me a hand please ?
Many thanks in advance.

start with Repair Mode if it doesn't work Wipe Data(your data will be erased).

I tried both options but not working

Try installing TWRP recovery (permanent flash not just fastboot boot TWRP.img) and then retry the installation.

Is the bootloader unlocked?

Unlock Bootloader - Install Twrp - install the latest xiaomi.eu rom - you can root with magisk.zip if necessary

I don't have a Xiaomi account. The phone is working but cannot install updates properly because of the seamless updates.

Ok, what do you want to do, update it to Chinese version or flash another version?
Do you know the Xiaomi EU roms?

For me looks like ROM what you had before was FASTBOOT installed xiaomi.eu stable, and then they started rolling out TWRP updates, and because you didn't have TWRP its reboot in stock recovery ?...
Can you boot into TWRP from this link:https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...eamwin-recovery-project.4374111/post-87360425
Please use this fastboot command
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
, first TWRP boot will be in Chinese language, please change it to English, enter your unlock PIN, then find this update file downloaded by updater.
Let us know if that's help

I'm right, your current ROM is a FASTBOOT version (so without TWRP)
Checked on the download website
xiaomi.eu_multi_MI11Pro_MI11Ultra_V13.0.12.0.SKACNXM_v13-12-fastboot.zip

What are you talking about ?
Xiaomi Eu is a custom rom.
Xiaomi EEA rom for Europe is a stock rom.
V13.0.12.0.SKACNXM and V13.0.13.0.SKACNXM :Chinese stock rom

You didn't focus on details ,my friend
He has already installed xiaomi.eu custom ROM, if you closely check his pictures from his first post - Updater app downloaded new version of xiaomi.eu CUSTOM ROM, so yeah he has already unlocked bootloader, and installed FASTBOOT version of CUSTOM ROM, the version what Updater app downloaded was released to be installed with TWRP (he didn't have TWRP on his phone yet) - so he need boot into TWRP and install update manually.

You're right bro, I'm way off base.
I focused on that
he just installed the TWRP and updated.

To summarize:
Create a Xiaomi account.Important
I hope that the seller has deleted the device from his account otherwise it will be a hassle.
flash twrp
Flash the rom

He has already unlocked bootloader/already on custom ROM - for what he needs Xiaomi account ?

because after flashing the ROM, it is asked to continue booting.
obviously if the phone is no longer linked this will not be a problem

Hi gomcse2002,
Has your problem been solved?
If so, how did you do it, if you don't mind me asking.
I've had the same exact concern on my Mi 11 Ultra, which sadly has NOT been resolved yet.
Thanks.

Which rom(full name)?
