Look at my problem here. I was given a simple solution by Xiaomi Redmi 4A developer of PixelExperience - you need to upgrade your TWRP to one supporting /vendor partition in order to flash Magisk zip. Solution is here.

Just use latest unofficial twrp by Nick or use orange fox recovery by adi. Also u can akways backup ur boot image using kernel manager apps from play store or u can backup ur boot image from recovery also.

I am not sure . I flashed the latest version till now there are no new update . I think candy Os is a treble ROM try non treble rom
Using the treble supported TWRP fixed the vendor mount problem but I get into a bootloop when I try to install Magisk (latest version). I'm using the Havoc ROM (Android 8.1.0 - Treble Supported).
Edit: Got Magisk running by using a modified version for Treble.
Direct Link to the custom build of Magisk: Here
Source of the Link: LineageOS 15.1 by abhishek987
Flash this recovery, its for treble:

Hello I also installed the same ROM plus the Recovery of Red Wolf, remember that since its a treble you cannot mount vendor, but actually its easier than anything, why? cause the RR its based on Lineage OS and this last one is based on Cyanogen Mod, at the end what im trying to say its that the root services are already included in the ROM you only need to "unlock it" so i have the link for that, you only need to install this addon in .zip format (all the links and products are not mine, so please give thanks to the amazing developers). This is the official link and it also comes with an instructive step by step, I did the install trough sideload and now is working!
Example of command with adb sideload: C:\Users\kaks\Downloads\adb\adb sideload "C:\Users\kaks\Downloads\adb\addonsu-15.1-arm64-signed.zip"
www . cyanogenmods.org / root-lineageos-15-1-android-oreo-rom /
Hope this work for you as it did for me

OK, but can I then hide the "rooting" afterwards with Magisk?

Help problem installing Magisk v.16 on AEX Oreo 8.1 ROM

HELP I have researched everywhere on the internet and I'm not sure what to do. I have a REDMI 4A wit AEX ROM OREO8.1 installed, TWRP 3.2.2.0 Official (for Redmi 4A on the twrp website) and tried to flash Magisk v.16. Error 1 mount vendor shows up in twrp. Many YouTubers says I should flash boot.img. I've already flashed the boot.img of the given AEX ROM OREO 8.1, but the same error occurs. I tried to search for answers, and what I found was that apprently aosp oreo ROMs usually are Treble ROMs. Downloaded Termux app and checked if ROM was treble = false = NOT Treble! Then others say I have to flash a modded vendor version of twrp. (Link: (add Https here)/androidfilehost.com/?fid=674106145207489212) Haven't tried it out just wanted to make sure if I should or not, bacuse the last time I tried to flash a different twrp, I had to flash the original one back using ADB...
Btw I had given up at some point and I flashed SuperSU successfully. Why Can I flash SuperSU but not Magisk?? I fully unrooted SuperSU and am ready to try flashing Magisk again. If anyone has any idea how to fix this, pleeeeeease tell me I need Snapchat to work while having root (yes I know I could've used Titanium Backup but that not the point rn)
Thanks in advance!!!

Yup, you must use TWRP Vendor if you want to use magisk in AEX Oreo.
Han usb Deccan if DHC dry j
Wrong section.
Install TWRP Pitch Black, then install magisk for treble rom
That version may have bugs try the newer versions
Try with Pitch Black recovery or Orange Fox recovery
Same for me and than i using BATIK Recovery for fix it
Solved Magisk error!
I've tried so many Recoveries and after trying more than 5 recoveries and about 7 Different ROM I finally got the answer.
So basically now that Redmi 4A is treble based, hence it has now a new Partitioning vendor based. For that you'll need new Recovery that support vendor mounting. I've tried the other Recoveries mentioned above and all of them are buggy. Go for the official TWRP vendor based Recovery. I found it here :
https://freaksterism.blogspot.com/2018/10/solved-cannot-mount-vendor-magisk.html?m=1
The steps are explained purely for Redmi 4A.
Use pitchblack recovery and all the problems will fix or install supersu and install magisk apk, grant root and install directly and then you can uninstall supersu with unsu zip

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

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...

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.

How can I flash HavocOs in the good way ?

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.

I had A12 then. I flashed pixel experience 12.1 on May 28(PixelExperience_Plus_raphael-12.1-20220528-1605-OFFICIAL.zip) and it went thru just fine. Now the updates of 8/20 bricked the phone.
After format data, I get the Readonly info screen, I swipe to allow modification, side loads the latest download PixelExperience_Plus_raphael-12.1-20220820-1448-OFFICIAL.zip, and restart, but back to TWRP recovery.
Some things I tried

Wipe everything, system, vendor, internal storage, dalvik, cache via advanced wipe, then flash firmware and vendor or if your rom has included firmware then just flash the rom directly. Try to boot into OS if it still bring back to twrp then again repeat the above steps and this time flash stock vendor and firmware from mi website and try to boot into OS.

All the best
yes using the team win version of TWRP. Used Orange Fox recovery. ( nice look and feel and features btw). But they didn't work either. What could I try more? Could I be able to revert back to MIUI stock ROM ? let me know if you have good resources. Thank you very much for your time and efforts

Back to MIUI
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/flash-tool-guide-use-xiaomi-flash-tool.4262425/
flashed stock miui rom for now. Will tap into pixel rom in few days.
now that I think, I think I did a blunder, thinking I was in A12. Can you point me to A12 firmware for Redmi k 20 pro? I"m looking into https://miuirom.org/phones/xiaomi-12, but they seem to be recovery and not firmware. I'm not sure if recovery comes with firmware. As I need to format to install, will the firmware stay or not?

Xiaomi has stopped updating on Android version 11.
Which rom do you want to install?

Why bothering to manually search here and there for official ROMs
Install the app:
MIUI Downloader - Apps on Google Play
MIUI upgrade app for Mi users.
play.google.com
and the app will show you links to download the latest Global, EEA, etc, zip/recovery or tgz/fastboot, or you can scroll through the older versions and pick an older if you wish
Btw, latest are MIUI 12.5, A11 - there are no official A12 ROMs for Mi 9/Redmi K20 line of models
Even if they receive MIUI 13, it will be (for some already released, but eg China only, etc) it will be A11
Same issue, I guess this is it for me. Time to buy a new phone rather than accidentally losing data from time to time with custom ROMs. I wonder if they didn't know such issue exists before releasing it to the public.
