INTRO:
After long research and applying various technics I've successfully discovered several methods and made this guide for TWRP, Root and Magisk installation for OOS 9.0.17 to OOS 10.0 for Un/Rooted OnePlus 6T (fajita) device.
NOTES:
* How to Unlock Bootloader / adb sideload / Advanced reboots etc. This Link
* Methods are well tested read/follow carefully, retry or if bricked use Unbrick Tool
* To upgrade "OOS-9" to "OOS-10" u gotta be on "OOS 9.0.17" and "Method-3" is applicable for OOS 10.0+ OTAs
* Remember "Bootloader" is "Fastboot" and OTA flash changes the A/B slot.
* [TWRP] Bootup Message >> [TICK] Never show.. > Swipe to Allow Mod.. || Reboot Message >> Untick all > Do Not Install
* This guide can be ported for OnePlus 6 users with proper credit.

Thanks man! But doesn't the method for going from OOS 9.0.17 (rooted) to OOS 10.0 (rooted) require the flashing of FILE-6 i.e. oldkeymaster.zip?

"File Map" and "Methods" is updated at 2019-11-17 UTC 19:32
Checkout the new "File Map" and "Methods" !!

would this method work if on OOS 9.0.16 to OOS 10 instead of 9.0.17 or do you have to be on 9.0.17? (Rooted of course)

@metaspook:. I followed your walkthrough. I loved the "flow chart.". FINALLY! Android 10 is now running fast and clean on my OnePlus 6T!
NOTE:. To the other devs out there:. Thank you all for YOUR efforts and tools. Without our devs and end users alike, XDA wouldn't exist.
#xdarules
QUICK EDIT AND UPDATE: I followed the guide and my twrp got scrambled in terms of it didn't decrypt properly. No matter though. I'm going to sit this one out until oneplus releases a more stable Android 10 build. Appreciate the effort., metaspook.
2nd update: After seeing that the walkthrough got a rewrite, I figured I'd give it another go around. I followed the instructions for 9.0.17 to 10.0 rooted method and so far, everything's stable! I rebooted back into twrp to make sure everything "sticks" and we're good to go!
People, I'm going to say this: Don't deviate from the rewrite. Follow the directions to the letter. I find that those trying to be "cute and creative" get themselves in a whole world of hell.
Above all, let's keep XDA fun!

How to clean flash oos 10(i am rooted with oos10 and magisk and have twrp 27)

~~~ Whole thread is updated!!! ~~~
Check out !! More CLEAN and Proper...
@ 2019-11-19

Thank you for clarifying this, I thought I had to repeat the whole steps beginning from step 2 and would end in an infinite loop . I did never do adb sideload (except twrp to boot).
Sadly I was not able to boot into system anymore what I tried. In the end after 4-5 hours of waste I recovered with msmDownloadTool to Android 9 and am sticking now to 9.0.17 with root and without twrp until OP fixes more bugs or until I cannot wait anymore

Is this all really necessary? I mean I'm just asking because I've been hanging out on the sidelines waiting before going to Android 10, but my question is, if TWRP 3.3.1-27 fixes ROM flashing and Decryption issues then why couldn't someone flash everything conventionally coming from 9.0.17(Pie)?
For example you're on Pie, you usually go into TWRP and flash your updated ROM, then your TWRP installer, then reboot your recovery then flash your Magisk (I also then do the other slot too, but this is just for proof of concept) then you reboot your system.
So since TWRP handles everything correctly now what keeps someone from simply going into TWRP (on pie) updating to 3.3.1-27 via the installer then flashing OOS 10 , then flashing the installer again (obviously) then rebooting recovery and flashing newest Magisk and rebooting?
To me it seems like everyone is hanging onto these methods that everyone was using as work arounds when everyone was frantically trying to get And10 before everything was properly hashed out. I mean correct me if I'm wrong.

Used this tutorial and everything went flawlessly.im now on a stable 10.0 with everything running as it should..thanks again for this..

Heya,
I can't find "FILE-6" from Magisk Manager Download menu.

Had problems going from 10 unrooted to 10 rooted that I found it easier to downgrade to 9 and picking up from there, way more simpler process

[GUIDE] Oneplus 6T 6010 Flash Official Oxygen OS and Root with Unofficial TWRP

[WARNING]
This is a post about my experience, so first i will share in short my experience. For those looking for a step by step guide, go to [GUIDE] section of this post. (this might also prove that most of you people don’t read).
[DISCLAIMER]
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this guide before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
[My experience]
I would like to share my experience flashing my Oneplus 6T (6010 China Version) (NOT the T-Mobile version) from Hydrogen OS (china version) Oxygen OS. I did this mostly to have all the Google crap installed by default instead of the china stuff (and of course, for the fun).
I found this tutorial first (let’s call it #1):
https://www.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t-unlock-bootloader-root/
This basically was useful for me to understand 2 things:
#1. Unlock the bootloader
#2. adb sideload (because of force encryption).
The TWRP on the tutorial above was an old version that does not support decryption for the internal storage, so if i tried to flash a rom with that TWRP it was simply not possible, so trying to figure out how to decrypt my internal storage y found that the a newer version (unofficial by the way) supported the decryption, so I gave it try following the flashing TWRP steps of the tutorial #1 (and it worked!):
TWRP (unofficial 3.2.3-12 by mauronofrio):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...overy-unofficial-twrp-touch-recovery-t3861482
For the OS i gave it a try to flashing Oxygen using TWRP:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/official-oxygenos-9-0-4-ota-oneplus-6t-t3860953
After the successful OS flash, then i tried to flash magisk using the tutorial #1, but apparently didn’t worked so the I found this other tutorial (https://android.gadgethacks.com/how-to/magisk-101-install-magisk-root-with-twrp-0179668/) and did only the Magisk part. That did the trick so now i have my Oneplus 6T (6010) with oxygenOS and root

LOS 15.1 on M3
Hi. First I want to thank @surdu_petru for his amazing work. Now my Mediapad M3 (BTV-DL09) is powered by LineageOS 15.1 with Magisk. Works very well. Smooth and responsible. Using it couple hours and haven't notice any reboots or freezes.
I miss only bluetooth. Without it I cannot use Denon Heos App for my speaker.
Lack of camera is not an issue for me.
After adding BT full support this ROM may be the best for this (forgotten by Huawei) device. THX

Hello First of all thank you for making this custom rom! I have installed it on my BTV-W09 model and beside the Bluetooth it is just working fine..... But I have an issue with permissions. File managers, galleries etc are denied when trying to access internal storage. Did I miss a step in installing or is this a known issue ? Thanks

Please, check the official thread of LOS 15.1, this thread it's here only for INFO ... and the OP it's not the developer of this custom ROM ! Thanks !
Wow, it worked!! Glad that I got the rom installed (almost) flawlessly ! If you checked my other posts on the other guide it didn't go really flawlessly when I was attempting to unlock the device
Now I'll play around a little bit to get used to this new lineage territory
Thanks to surdu_petru who really worked hard on this... can't believe I'm giving a new life to my Beethoven which was getting completely abandoned from Huawei (last security patch over a year ago if I remember right!)
I can boot fine and all seems to be good, however I just noticed a thing when installing GApps: At the end of the install process, after stating "installation complete", it kinda freezes for half a minute or so and then gives me the error "Updater process ended with signal: 9" (see attached image). I looked it up and it should mean "Killed by the application". Maybe TWRP is seeing that the update process does not terminate and it kills it? I tried both with the last "pico" and "nano" versions (20. August 2020) which I downloaded from https://opengapps.org/.
Anyways, so far so good, can't wait for the update which seems to be coming very soon (no pressure surdu_petru)
EDIT:
I just flashed the latest OS update from surdu_petru and with that one, I didn't give me the "signal 9" error at the end of the Open GApps install as I had for the previous version. Great!
Hi, after install twrp recovery, press (Pwr+VolUP) goto Emui recovery instead of twrp, anything I am missing ?
Thanks

[RECOVERY][TB-X505F][UNOFFICIAL] TWRP 3.6.x for Lenovo Tab M10 HD

This version of TWRP works on the Lenovo TB-X505F (wifi).
For the TB-X505X, see this thread. For the TB-X605F/L, see this thread.
For the TB-X606F/L, see this thread. The X606F/L is the second gen M10 and it uses a Mediatek SOC.
Code:
#include <std_disclaimer.h>
/*
* We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at us for messing up your device, we will laugh at you.
*/
Working:
AFAIK, everything is working including:
data decryption
MTP
Known issues:
time not adjusting for Daylight Saving
OTA (for a workaround see this post)
Before installing TWRP
Before you install TWRP, upgrade your tablet to the Android 9 (Pie) or Android 10 (Q) stock ROM.
This tablet shipped with Android 8 (Oreo), in which the bootloader did not allow unlocking. When you tried to unlock the bootloader, it gave this error message:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock-go
FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')
fastboot: error: Command failed
Installation
It is recommended that you also install Magisk. This will ensure TWRP remains your default recovery.
Step-by-step guide
download TWRP to your PC (see the Download section below)
download magisk.apk to your MicroSD or OTG device. Get the latest Magisk apk file here. Rename the filetype from apk to zip (for example Magisk-v22.0.zip)
if your bootloader is already unlocked, go to step 4. To unlock bootloader:
on tablet: go to Settings->System->About and press "Build number" 7 times to enable Developer Options.
on tablet: go to Settings->System->DeveloperOptions. Turn on: "OEM unlocking" and "USB debugging".
connect tablet to your computer. Tablet will ask for permission to "Allow USB debugging". Tick "always allow" and select "OK".
backup any files you want to keep to an external device (MicroSD/OTG/computer), because the next step will wipe all your photos, files, google account etc on the tablet.
Now unlock the bootloader:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem unlock-go
fastboot reboot
flash the twrp image:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
if you haven't loaded Magisk yet, go to step 6. If you have already loaded Magisk, you can just reboot and you're finished:
Code:
fastboot reboot
adb reboot recovery
load Magisk (step one): reboot to recovery. Do not reboot into the system, because it will over-write TWRP with stock recovery. If that happens, go back to step 4 and start again. When you issue the reboot command (below), you have to immediately press the button combination to reboot to recovery (TWRP). Here are the steps:
issue the reboot command:
Code:
fastboot reboot
immediately press and hold all three buttons (Pwr+VolUp+VolDown). The tablet might reboot twice. Release all the buttons when you see the TWRP screen, or hear your PC acknowledge that ADB is connected.
load Magisk (step two): flash Magisk. In TWRP:
select "Install"
use "select storage" to locate device you stored magisk.zip on.
press the OK button
select the Magisk zip file
swipe to confirm Flash
when Magisk is finished, hit the "Reboot System" button
finished!
If you prefer to use button combos, rather than fastboot/ADB commands:
Vol Down + Power = fastboot mode
Vol Up + Vol Down + Power = recovery mode

Not that I know of. The bootloader accepts the command fastboot reboot recovery, but boots to system anyway.
Hello there, I've been looking how to install this on my slow tablet for almost like an hour. Could there be some tutorial or extended explanation to the process and installation, I'm such a noob, sorry.
This worked for me. Thank you for your effort and the TWRP!
Worked for me too - many thanks!
Can't wait for a custom ROM!

8. Troubleshoot by checking windows device manager for the M10 appears as a Qualcomm device
I'm thinking about getting one of these tablets, but before I do so I'd like to know that the screen lock still works after installing TWRP.
This might sound like a crazy question, but my Samsung Tab A won't set a screen lock - pattern, PIN or password - once TWRP has been installed, and I'd rather not run into the same issue again.

Many thanks.
Thank you! TWRP is working fine!
Stupid me flashed before I installed the Android 10 OTA, so I had to temporarily go back to stock recovery. Unfortunately beamingbadger's method didn't work for me.
This is how it worked for me:
Download the OTA via Lenovo's "Rescue And Smart Assistant"
The stock recovery image will be in the Download folder (default path: C:\ProgramData\LMSA\Download\RomFiles) called "recovery.img"
Flash the recovery.img the same way as you would with the twrp img (adb reboot bootloader -> fastboot flash recovery recovery.img)
fastboot reboot
Install OTA
Flash TWRP recovery + Magisk again (follow the steps from the first post, skip bootloader unlock)
The method I use to install OTAs is:
open Magisk App
select "Uninstall Magisk", then the "Restore Images" option
reboot to Android (you will have no root access and stock recovery is restored)
apply OTA
re-flash twrp and install Magisk
NOTE 1: if you've unencrypted your data partition, it will be re-encrypted by this process.
NOTE 2: the new Magisk App (v22) can be installed in TWRP by renaming the *.apk to *.zip. See the new install instructions.
What's involved with running gsi ROMs on this device? It's got the same SoC as my Samsung Tab, which runs them well, so I'm assuming that this tab will also, but I'd like to know if there are any traps that I need to be aware of.
I can partly answer my own question. It all went more smoothly than I expected: installing TWRP, Magisk and then LineageOS R Mod //LiR, followed by Disable_Dm-Verity_enfec.zip.
If I want to try other GSI ROMs, do I need to flash stock before trying another one? I've had some trouble doing that (won't boot) and it's possibly to do with encryption.

On my X605F I do this in twrp for a new GSI install:
format (not wipe) data partition. This is the option where you have to confirm by swiping.
factory reset. This clears the caches.
restore the stock boot and vendor partitions (from a backup I made). This is because Magisk can touch these partitions.
install the GSI system image
install anything else I need like disable_Dm-Verity, Magisk, gapps etc
I don't know what LOS R Mod //LiR does to your system. If it touches any other partitions, you should restore those to stock too.
Thanks for that. It gives me something to go on with. I've downloaded the stock ROM from lolinet, so I can grab the boot and vendor images from that.
I was able to try a couple of other GSI ROMs and I've settled on AndyYan's LineageOS 17.1 for now. The only serious installation issue I had - which I can laugh about in hindsight - was thinking I'd got myself into a very bad bootloop, when all I needed to do was let go of the power button after the Lenovo logo appeared.
On this tablet, there is no navigation capability at all (no navbar, no gestures, no setting to configure them) on installation, and I have to set it using adb. I suspect it goes back to PHH basic ROMs, but I don't feel like doing yet another install and testing right at this moment. Is this happening on the other tablets that you're testing, or is it unique to this one?
I just posted the v3.5.1 update to twrp.
It's also changed to landscape mode, as many of you requested.
Quick question, how do i apply new system updates with twrp installed? Should i not bother? Also, i forgot how to block check for updates!
will this allow flashing of stock roms download from lenovo recovery? ive been stuck on an ancient android 9 version because the ota updater fails.

Could you provide the correct link to download?
Thank you very much.

Thank you. But why no fast charging? Slow charging indicator ?
How awesome! I'm running CrDroid on my Poco F3 and it works flawlessly. Just bought a Mi 11 and I cannot wait to flash this!
QUESTION: on my Poco F3 I do all my CrDroid flashing through that modified (SKKK, I think) version of TWRP and I have it installed on my Mi 11. Can I use TWRP to flash this, since I don't have a computer available for the next couple days?

Replying to my own question. It installed perfectly through TWRP.
Rom seems to be working fine, but I'm having problems with the screen colours - if you edit them (saturation, for example) the changes work for a little while but then it reverts to default colors. Also night light turns things way too warm, even at the minimum setting. Looking forward to more updates!
where is the boot.img?I can't download it.
after flashed crDroid v8.10,I can't fastboot boot BOOT-3.6.2_12-Mi11_v6.3_A12-venus-skkk, and can't install it.

Before following this guide, make sure you have followed the rom flashing guide below the post below or xiaomi.eu rom flashing guide.
If you have followed the flashing guide then you may continue.
Hello Amigos,
You can use this guide to install other recovery than TWRP also.(Other recoveries are listed in the guide itself)
Steps to install
First of all unlock bootloader of your device . Search net for more info.
After this install adb drivers from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...reborn-v2-0-adb-fastboot-and-drivers.3854109/
Choose skip install for adb and install google drivers.
Connect your device in fastboot mode to your pc.
Go into device manager , right click on unrecognized android device , choose update drivers , let me pick from a list of drivers , select adb drivers , android bootloader interface and click install.
Then go to your custom rom download thread and check the date of rom file(In this case derpfest).
Download the latest platform-tools from the Android developer site and extract the zip in an easily accessible folder
Download the recovery image file
Restart your device to fastboot mode
Method 1:
Using this adb command if you have USB debugging active on your device:
adb reboot bootloader
Method 2:
- Turn off your device
- After it has completely turned off, press and hold Vol - and the Power button at the same time until the word "FASTBOOT" with orange letters comes out
Method 3:
- Turn off yout device
- Press and hold Vol - button
- Connect the USB cable (previously connected to the PC) to the device and press and hold the button until the word "FASTBOOT" with orange letters comes out
Connect your device to the PC
Open a cmd window in the folder where you extracted the binaries from the zip from step 1
Easy method: Open the folder, and without leaving it, type "cmd" in the address bar of the file explorer and press enter. Command promt will open a window directly in the folder location
Verify that your device is recognized by fastboot using this command:
fastboot devices
If your device has been detected (a serial number followed by the word fastboot), you can continue. Otherwise, check if the drivers are installed correctly, although if you used Mi Unlock and were able to unlock the device correctly on the PC you are using, you should not have problems with that.
- Because this device uses A/B partitions, there is no recovery partition as such, but it is integrated into the "boot" partition. So, first we must boot using the TWRP image.
Type this command in the cmd window, but don't press Enter yet, just type it and leave a space at the end:
fastboot boot_
Don't write the "_". This only indicates the space you should leave at the end.
This is how it should look when you write it:
Now, drag the image file (yourrecoveryhere.img) to the command window and drop it above the window. This will make you copy your exact location for convenience.
- The result should be this:
Code:
fastboot boot "C:\location\to\your\file\yourrecoveryhere.img"
Quotation marks are only added if the entire location has spaces.
Otherwise, it is displayed without quotation marks.
Press Enter and wait a few seconds. The MI logo will come out, and then the TWRP logo.
DONE! You've started perfectly in recovery
From the device
NOTE: Only use these steps if you want to have TWRP installed semi-permanently
I said "semi-permanent" because when flashing any ROM, and knowing that the "recovery" is integrated into the "boot" partition, it will be lost after leaving TWRP, so you can follow these steps if you want to avoid loss of TWRP.
If you have easy access to a PC, you can be fine with the boot method. If you don't have easy access to a PC, you can follow these steps.
Method 1(For TWRP)
While in the TWRP menu, tap the Advanced button
Copy the TWRP image file to the internal memory or SD card from the PC. MTP mode is enabled by default
You can use a USB OTG too
Now tap on the option "Install recovery ramdisk"
Now locate the file and tap on it.
You can use the "Select storage" button to switch between different storages
"Swipe to confirm" and the TWRP installation process will begin
Method 2(For TWRP)
While in the TWRP menu, tap the Install button
Copy the TWRP image file to the internal memory or SD card from the PC. MTP mode is enabled by default.
You can use a USB OTG too
Tap on the option "Install image"
Now locate the file and tap on it.
You can use the "Select storage" button to switch between different storage
In the new menu, select "Install recovery ramdisk" and then "Swipe to confirm Flash"
Method 3(For SHRP)
1. While booted in SHRP,under essentials section, tap advanced button.
2. Then click on flash current shrp button and click on tick button to flash shrp.
Method 4(For SHRP)
While booted in SHRP menu , tap flash button under the essentials section.
Copy the shrp image or zip file to the internal memory or SD card from the PC. MTP mode is enabled by default.
You can use a USB OTG too.
Now locate the file and tap on it.
You can use the "Select storage" button to switch between different storage
In the new menu, select "Install recovery ramdisk" and then "Swipe to confirm Flash" if its img file or click on zip file of shrp , then click on tick button to flash.
Method 5(For OrangeFox)
1. While booted in Ofox, click on menu at the bottom right of the screen.
2. There you will see manage partitions, reboot , mount as such . The last thing in menu column you will
see will be more. Click on more, then below fix contents you will see flash current orange fox. Swipe to confirm flash.
Method 6(For OrangeFox)
While booted in ofox , tap files button at the bottom left of the screen.
Copy the ofox image file to the internal memory or SD card from the PC. MTP mode is enabled by default.
You can use a USB OTG too.
Now locate the file and tap on it.
You can use the "Select storage" button to switch between different storage
In the new menu, select "Install recovery ramdisk" and then "Swipe to confirm Flash"
Remember that with the three methods mentioned above you will lose root access (Magisk), so do not forget to flash it again. These steps are also valid to update TWRP or other recovery if you already had it previously installed.

Go into the stock rom folder and double click on flash_all.bat(all data will be lost) .
Or open cmd in the folder and type flash_all.bat in cmd and hit enter.(This method allows to look for errors)
A cmd window will popup with fastboot commands automatically and after complete flashing of rom will close automatically. (approx. 20-25 mins)
Let the device boot into MIUI.
Once it boots power it off . Then press the vol down + power button until fastboot in orange letters appear.
Then follow the twrp flashing guide from here
Then flash the ROM according to the instructions.
NOTE:
Make sure to always extract and move the stock rom folder in root of C: drive (this helps avoid flashing errors)The path should look something like this:
C:\spes_global_images_YourVersionhere
Then flash the stock rom.
Clean Flashing a ROM:
I hope you have followed the entire guide above before doing this step.
Reboot to recovery.
Format data.
Flash ROM file.
Wipe Dalvik Cache.
Reboot and enjoy.
Everytime you do a clean flash, you must redo all the steps above.
If a rom does not include flashing instructions, it requires a clean flash.
If rom mentions clean flash and not wiping of anything else then dont be smart to wipe anything unecessary.
If you get a error like this: assert failed _dynamic partitions package_extract_file(dynamic_partitions_op_list) ERROR 1
Then re do this guide from start and re do all the steps in the guide and when it comes to flashing twrp, then use twrp 3.6.1 to flash rom(if your rom mentions to use a specific recovery then use that instead)
Always flash magisk after the first boot of your rom
If mtp not working or device not getting detected as a portable device in any recovery then watch this guide here: GUIDE
Do not replace the recovery or try to update recovery that comes with roms. This can brick your device
Enjoy!

Hi, I have a remdi note 11 unlocked bootloader, flashed MIUI13 (android 12) and then fastbooted to twrp . From there I tried to flash TWRP 3.7 (for android 12) using Method 2 , it flashed ok but now phone only boots to fastboot , and when I do again fastboot boot twrp.img it goes to TWRP but says no OS installed.
Could you guide me on what I have ****ed up??

AFAIK, this phone doesn't have a Recovery partition and TWRP has to be booted from Fastboot. Maybe that's what's causing the problem?

But in the guide which is for this phone it clearly states you can "semi-permanently¨ install TWRP. Booting from bootloader is no deal breaker for me, but know Im getting concerned about magisk and other stuff I want to install

Sorry for inconvenience! I suggest that you boot twrp 3.6.2 from fastboot and then flash 3.6.2 instead from method 2 as some MIUI roms and custom roms have problems with 3.7.0 which can brick your device. Hope that resolves your issue !

Before following this guide, make sure you have followed the rom flashing guide below the post below or xiaomi.eu rom flashing guide.
If you have followed the flashing guide then you may continue.
Hello Amigos,
You can use this guide to install other recovery than TWRP also.(Other recoveries are listed in the guide itself)
Steps to install
First of all unlock bootloader of your device . Search net for more info.
After this install adb drivers from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...reborn-v2-0-adb-fastboot-and-drivers.3854109/
Choose skip install for adb and install google drivers.
Connect your device in fastboot mode to your pc.
Go into device manager , right click on unrecognized android device , choose update drivers , let me pick from a list of drivers , select adb drivers , android bootloader interface and click install.
Then go to your custom rom download thread and check the date of rom file(In this case derpfest).
Download the latest platform-tools from the Android developer site and extract the zip in an easily accessible folder
Download the recovery image file
Restart your device to fastboot mode
Method 1:
Using this adb command if you have USB debugging active on your device:
adb reboot bootloader
Method 2:
- Turn off your device
- After it has completely turned off, press and hold Vol - and the Power button at the same time until the word "FASTBOOT" with orange letters comes out
Method 3:
- Turn off yout device
- Press and hold Vol - button
- Connect the USB cable (previously connected to the PC) to the device and press and hold the button until the word "FASTBOOT" with orange letters comes out
Connect your device to the PC
Open a cmd window in the folder where you extracted the binaries from the zip from step 1
Easy method: Open the folder, and without leaving it, type "cmd" in the address bar of the file explorer and press enter. Command promt will open a window directly in the folder location
Verify that your device is recognized by fastboot using this command:
fastboot devices
If your device has been detected (a serial number followed by the word fastboot), you can continue. Otherwise, check if the drivers are installed correctly, although if you used Mi Unlock and were able to unlock the device correctly on the PC you are using, you should not have problems with that.
- Because this device uses A/B partitions, there is no recovery partition as such, but it is integrated into the "boot" partition. So, first we must boot using the TWRP image.
Type this command in the cmd window, but don't press Enter yet, just type it and leave a space at the end:
fastboot boot_
Don't write the "_". This only indicates the space you should leave at the end.
This is how it should look when you write it:
Now, drag the image file (yourrecoveryhere.img) to the command window and drop it above the window. This will make you copy your exact location for convenience.
- The result should be this:
Code:
fastboot boot "C:\location\to\your\file\yourrecoveryhere.img"
Quotation marks are only added if the entire location has spaces.
Otherwise, it is displayed without quotation marks.
Press Enter and wait a few seconds. The MI logo will come out, and then the TWRP logo.
DONE! You've started perfectly in recovery
From the device
NOTE: Only use these steps if you want to have TWRP installed semi-permanently
I said "semi-permanent" because when flashing any ROM, and knowing that the "recovery" is integrated into the "boot" partition, it will be lost after leaving TWRP, so you can follow these steps if you want to avoid loss of TWRP.
If you have easy access to a PC, you can be fine with the boot method. If you don't have easy access to a PC, you can follow these steps.
Method 1(For TWRP)
While in the TWRP menu, tap the Advanced button
Copy the TWRP image file to the internal memory or SD card from the PC. MTP mode is enabled by default
You can use a USB OTG too
Now tap on the option "Install recovery ramdisk"
Now locate the file and tap on it.
You can use the "Select storage" button to switch between different storages
"Swipe to confirm" and the TWRP installation process will begin
Method 2(For TWRP)
While in the TWRP menu, tap the Install button
Copy the TWRP image file to the internal memory or SD card from the PC. MTP mode is enabled by default.
You can use a USB OTG too
Tap on the option "Install image"
Now locate the file and tap on it.
You can use the "Select storage" button to switch between different storage
In the new menu, select "Install recovery ramdisk" and then "Swipe to confirm Flash"
Method 3(For SHRP)
1. While booted in SHRP,under essentials section, tap advanced button.
2. Then click on flash current shrp button and click on tick button to flash shrp.
Method 4(For SHRP)
While booted in SHRP menu , tap flash button under the essentials section.
Copy the shrp image or zip file to the internal memory or SD card from the PC. MTP mode is enabled by default.
You can use a USB OTG too.
Now locate the file and tap on it.
You can use the "Select storage" button to switch between different storage
In the new menu, select "Install recovery ramdisk" and then "Swipe to confirm Flash" if its img file or click on zip file of shrp , then click on tick button to flash.
Method 5(For OrangeFox)
1. While booted in Ofox, click on menu at the bottom right of the screen.
2. There you will see manage partitions, reboot , mount as such . The last thing in menu column you will
see will be more. Click on more, then below fix contents you will see flash current orange fox. Swipe to confirm flash.
Method 6(For OrangeFox)
While booted in ofox , tap files button at the bottom left of the screen.
Copy the ofox image file to the internal memory or SD card from the PC. MTP mode is enabled by default.
You can use a USB OTG too.
Now locate the file and tap on it.
You can use the "Select storage" button to switch between different storage
In the new menu, select "Install recovery ramdisk" and then "Swipe to confirm Flash"
Remember that with the three methods mentioned above you will lose root access (Magisk), so do not forget to flash it again. These steps are also valid to update TWRP or other recovery if you already had it previously installed.

I seem to be having issues with the bootloader unlocking, I am not receiving verification SMS to my number to associate my device and number with xiaomi account before using the unlock tool. I have tried the official help checklist, and have asked support, however even though my issue is about verification SMS for adding my number to my xiaomi account, they said that because I am trying to unlock the device, that basically they refuse to give me support at all, even with association of my number to mi account. Quite the FU from xiaomi! Any advice about how to receive the verification SMS so i can continue with unlocking the bootloader, or any additional methods for bootloader unlocking would be appreciated.
