Hello guys.
I have a problem trying to install custom recovery on my phone. I tried the fastboot method ( fastboot flash recovery twrp.img ) it does install the twrp but after reboot the official recovery it's back.
The problem is that is not the first time I try to install, before I succeeded because I had the startup page of twrp with that slide. Now no matter what twrp I try to install it boots in twrp and after reboot stock comes back.
I tried even those scripts which are installing automatically the recovery but without success.
Any thoughts?
Many thanks

Hello,
I'm lookig for a guide how to twrp, root and install custom rom, on my Mi5 miui 10 global stable.
I'm not newbe I did a lot of flashing on my previus phones Nexus and others. But this time I feel lost. I sit on miui 10 global stable. When I try to to flash twrp I get reroll to mi recovery every single time. All guides I found in the Internet are dedicated to older android versions. Xiaomitool don't help too.
Can someone point me to the right direction? It is time to change rom on my Mi5 finally to give him boost b4 I buy something new.
Best regards

Your bootloader is unlocked, right?
Then you need reboot to fastboot mode and flash latest official twrp via fastboot.
Like
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <path to twrp.img>
Have you tried it that way?

Bootloader is unlocked.
I did it that way but after twrp is installed I reboot and there is no twrp available. Only mi recovery.
To make it easier...
I would like to:
Flash twrp
Flash magisk and root
Flash firmware (why i need this?) Havoc os asks to flash it but I don't know why.
Flash havock os and gapps
Flash some mods for camera and sound
I don't understeand why twrp can't be flashed and I have no idea what is modified firmware for? Do I need this?
Thanks for your time
Try the the xiaomi eu rom guide .
I think you may need its custom bootloader , not the actual rom.
Than flash the firmware required for your custom rom and reboot directly to recovery again from twrp than rom and gapps , I hope that helps
Hi, i had the same problem, try this:
1. Flash twrp as usual(fastboot flash recovery twrp.img and then fastboot reboot)
2. When rebooting, you have to enter at recovery (vol up + power) . Don't allow phone to boot! In TWRP official page, on installation instructions , they say after installation you must enter in recovery to allow TWRP patch recovery rom, because some Roms after boot reinstall original recovery.
3. Now you should have TWRP installed.
If you do
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
and then do
fastboot boot twrp.img
It's simpler and it will boot to recovery and patch the ROM to be permanently installed.

First,fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
and then no reboot your phone, just to hold the key combo (vol up + power), and then you can enter the twrp mode once because the recovery will be changed when your phone has rebooted.
But you can use the only once twrp mode to install the zip .
If you just want to use MIUI 10, you will flashboot twrp everytime when you need twrp to do something.
PS: Forgive me pool English.

Hello,
I tried updating to Miui 10.3.3 with recovery (TWRP) and flashed it with no erros, though when i try to reboot it goes back to TWRP even if i reboot to system.. Any suggestions?
I have had the same problem with another rom. I couldn't install another rom anymore. I had to switch to another recovery. Now im in OrangeFox and Eversthing works AS IT should ?

It is because of encryption flash "disable dm-varity and force encryption" using this link : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1E5jtzVjJ3eFw3H-LXHkECmtzMjVutcIT/view
It will solve the problem
If didn't worked search for other versions
Hello,
I've installed twrp 3.4.0.1 via fastboot, but after I select yes when i'm asked about erasing my data, the phone just boot up normally without deleting any of my data, but does not enter twrp either. Tried 3.4.0.0 too, no luck. Only 3.3.1.0 worked, but when I try to backup it says something like 'can't mount system partition' and some other errors. I think that version is too old for my rom, so I'm afraid to use it for backup/flash. My phone is LG G6 H870, Android 9, software version V30b. The phone is not rooted, the bootloader is unlocked. Tried to erase cache partition and install twrp 3.4.01 again, didn't work. I can't install Skyhawk or Orangefox becuase I can't use twrp.
Is anybody facing this problem too?
Thanks!
Bootloader unlocked?

HI You need to use OrangeFox recovery or SkyHawk. If you plan to go to 10, then you need SkyHawk. And I think SkyHawk is maintained but OrangeFox not.
Links:
SkyHawk https://sourceforge.net/projects/pa-g6/files/Releases/SHRP/20.07.2020/H870/
OrangeFox https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g6/development/recovery-orangefox-recovery-project-t3943594

So can I install SkyHawk via fastboot over stock recovery without installing twrp beforehand? I see there are multiple files in the shyhawk zip, should I only extract the recovery img and install it via fastboot? I'm kinda new to this, thanks!

HI. It is made to flash in TWRP (same as OrangFox) So I really don't know if that recovery.img flashing through Fastboot works. Never tried, sorry.
Maybe someone knows though.

Ok, thanks, I'll try to find a solution, or maybe I'll just wait for the next version of twrp.
You should try installing the recovery and immediately installing any custom rom, when i flashed twrp the first time i had to do it several times cause somehow it got "erased" every time i noot the stock OS.
Ig you don't want to install a custom rom try right after installing twrp and on the fastboot screen to reboot to recovery with (Volume - ) button and power.
I think the idea is not letting the Stock os boot
Also that error. i have the same problem, the only moment it doesn't appear is when you wipe all data with the "Format Data" option inside "Wipe" menu in twrp.
After you boot to the OS once and go back to recovery it will come again everytime you flash something.
Not sure if its a problem or not, because i've dirty installed some updates and also installed gapps and magisk even with that error.
Im currently in A10 using Havoc and NikGapps.
TWRP 3.2.3-0

Yes, I know I have to install twrp again every time I let the stock rom boot, but the only version of twrp working is 3.2.3 and I think that was released before the G6 received official Android 9 update, so that's why I'm not very confident using it. I've tried to enter recovery immediately after I've installed it, so I don't think that's the problem.
I have the same problem on the LG G6 H870. I won't get to TWRP. I tried several versions of TWRP and nothing.
Edit.
This twrp is functional:
https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=289997
After installation using fastboot, restart directly to twrp using power+vol. down.
Finally i've successfully flashed Skyhawk using TWRP 3.3.1, so thanks everyone for advice!
Still couldn't make official TWRP 3.4.0/3.4.0.1 work.
Update TWRP 3.1 to 3.4 problem

Hi, I don't know if this goes here, I hope you can help me, I update twrp from version 3.1 to 3.4 and now I can't access twrp, how can I fix it?
Hello again, I answer myself, and if it helps someone else, using adb fastboot with twrp 3.2 Melina solves it and twrp works perfectly again.
Hello together,
I have the problem that TWRP is disappeared after a restart. I installed TWRP with this steps:
1. adb reboot bootloader
2. fastboot flash recovery recovery-TWRP-3.3.2B-0302-XIAOMI_CC9-CN-wzsx150.img
3. fastboot oem reboot-recovery
TWRP is now installed, but after a reboot the default recovery is back. I had the problem before and therefore installed Magisk from TWRP. This was the only way TWRP was preserved as a recovery. I don't want Magisk anymore because I don't want root.
Thanks in advance

if u are in miui stock rom, this always happens, try to decrypt or flash every time u need the custom recovery. Stock rom always back to stock recovery
Hi,
I have C11 RMX2185, unlocked bootloader, installed TWRP and then some roms (pixel experience, next stock android 11, next CipherOS-2.0-KNIGHT)
everything worked fine and I was preparing to try some other ROMS
But now I am unable to enter TWRP (I was, I flashed roms with TWRP before)
In fastboot I do fastboot reboot recovery and TWRP started to load (blue TWRP logo), and it blink and logo, blink - logo,.... forever
I tried to flash boot.img, flash TWRP again, tried another release of TWRP for RMX2185, flashing vbmeta, format userdata, ..... all kind of posibilities without any error but stil unable to run TWRP
I can boot into system (CipherOS-2.0), I can do things in fastboot, when it loops in starting TWRP it is able to react to adb reboot
I run out of ideas.
Thanks in advance for some kicks in the back
