Nougat roms say: Encryption failed - on first boot - Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers

Hi!
I cannot use any 7.1 roms, because on the first boot, they say that the encryption failed ( most of the time in chinese) and i need to reset the device. If i hit reset, the same screen will appear again. I'm trying installing different firmvares from this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-redmi-4x/how-to/firmwares-t3682965 with no luck so far. Do you have any idea, what could solve the problem?
I always wipe everything before the new firmware and i reflash the rom.

Try changing recovery that should help, i have used Orangefox recovery R8.2 and was able to flash various Nougat based MIUI ROMs and Oreo ROMs(i have not tried any custom ROM based on Nougat than MIUI)

Cant return to MIUI from LineageOS

Wipe everything
Install global developer zip file
When reboot, twrp says no OS installed
Help pls
if the recovery method of flashing the full rom fails, then you have no other recourse except to flash via fastboot method.
take note of this "Please wipe all data in Recovery mode if you want to update to a discontinuous ROM version, or downgrade to an older ROM version using MIUI full ROM pack. If you upgrade from MIUI Stable ROM based on Android M to MIUI Developer ROM based on Android N, please flash it via Fastboot update. Recovery update might cause upgrade failure."

Did you just tried rebooting to system after flashing? I also got that error "no OS installed" in TWRP so many times, but rebooting to system with no problems at all.

Unmounted system before flashing ROM .
in my opinion why just not use rom from xioami.eu because you have custom recovery .

The reason is, that you can't flash OFFICIAL Chinese (Developer/Stadle) Rom with cusom recovery (TWRP). But you can flash anything esle. Like Lineage OS. If you want to use MIUI Rom, you have to flast a Xiaomi.eu ( developer or stable) rom. NOT OFFICIIAL CHINESE !!! If you prefer Official Chinese Global rom, you must download a FASTBOOT rom (not recovery) , and flash it in fastboot mode, with MiFlash.
instead of beating around the bush, why not follow the official procedure of flashing an official miui rom
if you are coming from a custom rom, as specified herein?:

When can we expect official RR for mi max 2?
It was already available for redmi note 4 which is having the same processor.
You have to wait for custom Rom until miui release the kernel source which is must have to develop a custom one. please be patience...
If you flash rom with out error, Even no os installed warning, you can boot into system without problem.

I can't flash any Android Oreo ROM

Hello, I have a problem with my Xiaomi Redmi 4X phone, as I said, I can not flash any Custom ROM for Android 8.1 All this happened after I put my phone in service to replace the display on which I've broken it. Now any version of Android 8.1 I try to flash results in a bootloop. I have to mention 3 things
1. In TWRP when flashing I noticed that all Custom ROMs are stuck in "Flashing system files ..." for a few seconds after saying that it ended flash-but did not abssolut anything.
2. Now a few hours I accidentally flashed Pixel Experince, but now I have the same problem.
3. I can not flash any versions of TWRP.Not much but...
THIS IS HAPPENING ONLY ON THE ANDROID OREO ROMs, Nougat ROMs works perfectlly
Try to flash first latest version of twrp or you can flash redwolf recovery then flash firmware v40 then try clean flash for oreo roms
As mentioned by above user...(latest TWRP recovery and firmware is must)
Flash latest TWRP recovery, 3.2.1-0 should be fine but there's update available 3.2.2.-0 so any will do.
Next, flash latest firmware.
Clean flash is must when changing OS.
It's most likely you don't have latest TWRP recovery and firmware.
Do backup first.

help me go to custom rom

Quite a few days ago I flashed the developer rom 9.4.25 to test the developer rom and it successfully flashed and I also installed the new twrp for pie devices and installed magisk also. But after that there were some problems like gps not showing exact location, contacts not showing etc. So I decided to flash a custom rom i.e Pixel Experience rom, but when I followed the necessary steps for flashing pixel rom, after installation, when I rebooted system, it automatically booted to fastboot. I tried several times to boot into system or recovery but the result was only fastboot, nothing but fastboot. Then I tried flashing the older versions of stable miui and then tried flashing the pixel rom but the result was same. Lastly, I flashed that same developer rom and now its still running on it but I want to run pixel rom on my device. The main problem is that I dont find any difficulty in flashing miui roms, but when I try to flash the custom roms like pixel experience, lineage or other aosp, treble roms, after installing that system.img file and then after reboot, automatically fastboot shows up and nothing else, cant go to any other screens except fastboot. What can I do?

Cannot install any custom rom

The issue I have is that I am unable to install any custom rom in the phone, I am only able to correctly install xiaomi.eu roms and also miui global roms using fastboot method. Any custom rom I try, like Pixel Experience, but also many others, the phone will boot loop. Tried android 10 and android 9 roms, also tried to flash roms coming from an older global miui rom, just like one tutorial recomended to do, but still nothing. In TWRP there are no errors, rom seems to install correctly, but when I reboot the phone it will boot loop.
Another weird issue is that only some versions of TWRP will install on my phone, right now I am using Orangefox 10.0.3, version 10.0.4 just won't install, I flash it but nothing happens. TWRP versions from mauronofrio won't install for some unknown reason.
I'm at a loss really as to what is happening.

1. Try the latest OrangeFox beta - https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-8/development/official-orangefox-recovery-project-t4039531
2. If you have any issues with it, then report (with logs) in the OrangeFox thread.

Any chance of testing older versions of TWRP?
Found this: "Q: Whenever I try flashing any (lineage-17.1) build, I get the following error in TWRP: Updater process ended with ERROR: 7
A: This error appears whenever you try to flash an Q-based rom within a version of TWRP older than 3.4. Simply flash the linked below version 3.4 or higher, reboot back into recovery, and flash the rom zip again. "
