It worked in my case, so I'm pretty sure u can, but ur current recovery will be overwritten with stock MIUI recovery. I'm using official TWRP 3.0.2.0 btw.
Also, Do with your own risk, I'm not responsible for anything

If the upgrades will lose the twrp recovery.
I installed the miui8 after the twrp recovery after downloading a recovery rom and make installation of twrp only wipe case and dalvic case not to lose twrp recovery.

Help me
Mi 5 hard brick after flash
no sign of life, but the driver was detected in pc

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?:
http://en.miui.com/a-234.html

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.

ROOT "miui 8.5.2.0 stable" global version ROM

HIi xda's,
I am in wait for Xiaomi to unchain my BL .....after so...
Can you please link me to a guide, to safely and easily root the mentioned phone ? (redmi 4x 32gb 3gb. with "miui 8.5.2.0 stable" global version ROM).
Is there any issues with MIUI rooted ROM, except to problems with OTA ?
( i just want to root that device safely so i can edit some system files like HOST etc...) at this moment, i want to stay with the original ROM.)
Thank you.
and sorry for my English in advanced.

Hello.
If it can help you.
I 'm running this rom, i've rooted it with magiksk V14.
you must install twrp before root.
Good luck.

I have just got the permission from Xiaomi and unlocked my BL :good:
most of the new guides of how to install twrp and root, are old or in Hindi, can you please link me to an english tutorial that will work on the relevant version ?
Thank you.

I originally went with the cofface version since I also wanted to use the stock rom
Eventually I flashed a few custom roms and decided to update to the official twrp later on

If it helps someone,
i flashed TWRP on redmi 4x with "miui 8.5.2.0 stable" global version ROM following that link : https://twrp.me/xiaomi/xiaomiredmi4x.html.
don't forget to root, right after you flash TWRP

Hi,
If i understood correctly;
1) You flashed official TWRP by "fastboot install method", right?
2) Which root method and version did you use? Supersu or magisk or..?
3) You are still on official global stable v8.5.2.0, and official Twrp is still installed (not replaced), right?
And also, i wonder if i can boot to official TWRP recovery temporarily (without installing to the device) and flash Magisk v14.0 afterwards, still on official global stable v8.5.2.0. Will try soon.

yes, you understand correctly the twrp flash method.
i flashed first magisk v12 and then update it to v14. you can flash v14 right away, no probs. now i have changed to 8.5.4.0 global stable(nougat...), and i flashed latest ver of supersu and everything works just great.

Root with Magisk Global Stable Rom

Hi ! I have just buy a mi 8 Global on Rom Global stable Pie V10.1.2.0 and I want to know how install Twrp and flash magisk for use magisk mod as Youtube vanced and Gcam or Notifications mods.
I do to Unlock the BL before ?

I don't understand Xiaomi I comes from Oneplus I read many post but I'm loose sorry
Thank you for help

Hi ! Nobody can help me ? Or if they had a link for root global Rom Miui 10 Pie ?
They had a tuto for mi 8 light bit nothing for mi 8

Can I unlock with a old Mi Account without waiting 2 weeks?

Relax, take your time and google everything you need, digest it first before you rush into doing something that you're not ready for.
By the time you become well informed yourself in two weeks time, then your phone will be ready to unlock.
Perfect timing.

Hi ! Yes I do it Yesterday Thank you.
Just download miunlock tool. And Twrp 3.2.3.120 .
But When I flash it on fastboot and reboot to Twrp what I do ? Factory reset and format data ?
And after ? Flash global stable Pie Rom and remove encryption dm verity and magisk directly or do reboot to recovery before ?

Rommco05 said:
If u interested in root, I suggest to you go to Global beta or some custom ROM based on MIUI, that just advice. Yes u need TWRP is way also without but this more practice. Flash TWRP which is posted here in Dev section this way:
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img
fastboot boot nameofrecovery.img
in TWRP flash avian nameofrecovery.img to recovery partition
Meantime download Magisk, latest is 18 and is good, put them to internal storage and flash... "abrakadara" and u are rooted
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Ok thank you very much.
Just flash magisk on beta rom no need to wipe or format. And no flash remove encryption too.
Just flash Twrp on fastboot and flash again Twrp on Twrp and flash magisk and reboot.
Great thanks. Have a good day.
Ps : I think flash dev global but factory reset before flash twrp and magisk because I had mistake after change local and use theme.

Rommco05 said:
No need to wipe/format anything. When u will install beta (over updater app) factory reset will be automatically
Click to expand...

Ok thank you I had install the beta with updater App but I do to configure it on boot and install App (use mi restore) for reply to you.
I'm on beta now just flash twrp now.
I don't factory reset it just flash magisk 18 on Twrp ?
But just a presision when reboot on Twrp just reflash Twrp img (install/image/recovery) because don't understand on recovery partition ? It's because treble my last phone are an oneplus 3 and no have treble partition and more easy to flash.
And every weeks they had an update of Dev Global Rom how do update it ? Flash the full Rom on Twrp and magisk to or can update it with updater App ?
Thanks have a good day.

Rommco05 said:
Yes that's right. Updates need be flashed in TWRP full version. Or have look into Pitch black recovery but still isn't tested
Click to expand...

Ok ! Thanks.
But I think flash Xiaomi.eu rom based on china rom. The stable Rom.eu stable.
But nobody response me on forum .eu.
I'm on global stable if I flash the Xiaomi.eu Rom it's chinese Rom and different it's right ? I do Factory reset for flash it ?
What the difference of the Twrp on dev section and twrp dipper on Xiaomi.eu ? I do use the Twrp dipper for flash this custom and do flash again Twrp on Twrp too.
I have change because the global rom for me is less good than chinese ! I had a mistake with notifications push youtube never had notifs ? But receive on YouTube but never on mi 8. I had remove all battery energized on system ! Check all notifications system and on App but never receive notifications.
Thanks have a good day

MiRoom is better than Xiaomi.eu. Before installing custom Miui Roms must format data. TWRP form Dev section is good

Ok thank you but MIRooms are not multi french langage and in French lot of people use Xiaomi.eu and for help is more good for me.
Ok do format data but if format data I loose encryption and don't do to flash the zip for remove it.
It's really a guys said me is better to buy a chinese version of mi 8 it's true... I have this global but no more people use it ! many people use chinese version of mi 8.
The chinese version of mi 8 are not encypted ? Thank you

Rommco05 said:
No that's isn't true, is much better owning Global version. Chines phones are also encrypted by default. So flash xiaomi.eu is up to your choice
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Ok thank you I make the good choice.
But why if global version are better all guys use custom rom based on china version ?
I don't know if they had but I would like a custom rom based on global rom but with more option than can make 5x5 on mi launcher because with theme it crash and don't stay every day or can use different song fir App like Twitter on my oneplus use the ios Twitter song and know if is a tweat and for Google message can't have the message song work only for mi message etc etc..
For flash Xiaomi.eu you said format data but you know on Twrp chose wipe and format and data and type yes ? Or wipe data partition ? Because if format it loose encryption and when boot to rom no have mistake with DM verity ? Thanks.

Just install the room and start it to finish the installation.
Then go to fastboot and install twrp with the commands that Rommco05 already said.

Hi ! Thanks for support. It's different than oneplus.
I'm on Dev Rom Global and stay for unlock the BL.
When I can unlock it I reinstall The Dev Global Rom or new update (every weeks) but wipe data on stock recovery (clean install) just start it as a new phone.
"I have a usb type-c otg " and then make that flash Twrp....& Magisk..
Thank you. Have a good day.

Is possible I think, before change to pie, make sure .zip file of pie must include kernel. I guess recommend flash via miui recovery / TWRP and wipe data. Because update different version of Android, 8.1 to 9.0
I never try Pie because my Arb=4. U can try, if bootloop you can flash this stable version again

You can I found the method in a Russian website, but the Bootloader will remains on 6X. But technically you can install AndroidONE again, btw for updating you need to use alternative ways. ( Due to the 6X Bootloader)

I tried but did not help. When I reboot system, MIUI 10 formats storage with encryption again. I tried following scenarios:
1) Opened TWRP and format data. Reboot system
2) Opened TWRP and format data. Reboot to TWRP again. Reboot to system
3) Opened TWRP and format data. Reboot to TWRP again. Flash magisk. Reboot to system
All has same affect. and TWRP asks password again and again.

Your Data partition can mount in TWRP?
if TWRP ask password, probably because install TWRP with active password lockscreen in system. When install recovery make sure deactive lockscreen pasword first
