Hi.
I had Freedom OS on my op3t. I gave it to my friend for review and he installed stock 7.0 on my Oneplus 3t.
After he made a review I wiped everything, then I entered into TWRP ( it worked) and try to install my backup. After flashing it I tried to turn on system but there was bootloop (I tried to do it 3 times) and because nth helped, I downloaded new FreedomOS to flash it but now, when I enter to TWRP I see:
DM- verity is not started in enforcing mode and may not work properly,
then is start booting to twrp but TWRP stay on main screen.. I try flash diffirent versions but every time TWRP doesn't work.
Device is unlocked.
Any idea?
I dont know if this is the right place to post this issue,sorry if this violates any rules
Recently I've shifted to custom roms on my device.I've always wanted to use one of those 9.0 ROM's.I tried 2 flavours-Pixys and Havoc.Both based off 9.
I tried flashing it with TWRP 3.2.1-0,as soon as I installed and rebooted it shows me Decryption failed and proceeded to factory reset my device.I had to repair my phone's file system to EXT4 to correct it and install an 8.1 based rom
Since I thought it might have to do something with TWRP, I tried RedWolf Recovery and tried installing Pixys and Havoc only to return to the same "Decryption Failed" issue.
Is there something different that I am doing?Can anyone help me in this regard.
Also,Im not able to install Magisk, recovery shows me Error-1 Couldnt mount vendor partition.What's the solution to this?
Did you tried another recovery? Try Batik Recovery!

Hey there, how about u try to install Pitchblack twrp the latest one and install Pixel experience pie riva, it can be used for rolex also because the developer make the rom to unified for both rolex and riva. Then install the magisk after that. I've been using pixel experience pie for a month and it is so far so good.

Sure,will give it a go
An update
I installed Batik recovery.Magisk could be flashed but Im still getting the decryption unsuccessful message when I install Pixys
Solved Magisk Error!
I've been using Pixys OS on my Redmi 4A and it works fine smoothly. I recommended to clean wipe before installing. Android Pie us amazing and I've installed stable version. Do backup before clean wipe.
For Magisk I recommended this: https://freaksterism.blogspot.com/2018/10/solved-cannot-mount-vendor-magisk.html?m=1
It worked for me. Also go through this step before any custom ROM. Do let me know the status

to solve decryption unsuccesful message, format data (Wipe>Format Data) after installing the rom, make sure you backup your internal storage coz Format Data will also ERASE the internal storage. This how i got over the decryption unsuccessfull message. hope this helped.
You have two problems.

You need to flash the twrp separated vendor version by my friend Offain https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=962187416754475993
The other problem with the decryption:
You must enter in the twrp press wipe and format data. Type yes and then reboot into twrp again. After that flash the rom and gapps and you will not have the decryption problem again

I had the same problem. Its because your phone is encrypted. The only solution I found is to boot the device into fastboot and using command: [fastboot format userdata] on PC. This will wipe all data off your phone so do backup. It removes encryption and now you can install any custom rom.
Decrypt ur phone first then flash, use twrp vendor

Format Data was the only thing that worked for me. First backup everything on your mass storage.
Hi everyone,
I'm new here though but am a Xiaomi user from the beggining of Xiaomi into devices with Redmi Note 3G Enhanced.
Currently, I own a Redmi 4X and I would like your expert lights please. I've flashed the latest twrp from twrp.me for my santoni device. Then flashed the latest build from LineageOS Official source + Gapps before booting up for first time. Everything was working perfectly until I decided to flash the latest update of LineageOS as I've seen in my updater it was released. So, I downloaded it through the updater and tried to flash it...
I came up with this "Failed to unmount /system (device or resource busy)" after that re-booted to LineageOS and everything was messed up with Google Services & Apps etc. Then I went back to twrp recovery and tried to flash again the rom but I was still getting that message so I understood something am doing wrong. Also santoni has dm-verity enabled which I know something about but just an info. I really wanna stick with LineageOS on my Redmi 4X forever but I'm afraid to flash it again. I've flashed MIUI 10 Beta by fastboot but now I wanna go back to LineageOS forever (addicted).
My only problem is: After successfuly flashing LineageOS and Gapps, I cannot apply (flash) updates to update the ROM to the latest nightly build due to this error above.
Kind regards,
peryson
Try with different recovery. For example with this

Instead of trying an unofficial recovery, do I have an option to unmount system manually before flashing through Official TWRP?

You can download latest Lineage OS build and dirty flash it (without any wipes) (so you can unmout system parition). And I don't see any issue in using unoffical twrp.
I also have experienced same error once during upgrade "failed to unmount /system"
Eventually I wiped everything and did clean flash from scratch. This is really annoying issue and demonstrates that upgrade system is not 100% reliable for some reason.
I'm not sure however is it Lineage or twrp issue.
Hello, everyone!
I hope anyone can help me.
Yesterday I assisted with rooting and flashing a Mi 9 T Pro with Xiaomi.eu firmware.
Here are the steps which were done:
1. Unlocking bootloader via MiFlash Tool.
2. Flashing TWRP (this one: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117906979)
3. First trouble: It only booted once into TWRP with "fastboot boot recovery xxx.img, after formatting data and a restart of TWRP it refused to get access again, neither with a command nor with hardware keys. It was stuck in fastboot.
4. With the MiFlash Tool I reverted to the stock global (this one: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.3.1.0....M_20190805.0000.00_9.0_global_135788d537.tgz)
5. After successfully flashing the stock ROM, I downloaded and flashed this TWRP: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=1899786940962577905
6. Flashing this version of TWRP went perfectly fine.
7. In TWRP I formatted data again. I restarted TWRP and copied the following files to storage:
ROM: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1899786940962578113
Magisk 19.2.zip
Disable_dm verity_ForceEncrypt
8. I wiped Dalvik, cache, system and data.
9. I flashed ROM - it went through without problems
10. I tried to flash the dm verity, then an error occurred (please see the attached picture).
Can you please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Root is mandatory for me, I definitely need it.
I'm looking forward to your input and your help, it's very appreciated!
try to unmount system then flash it again

Thanks for your input. I tried that, unfortunately this didn't work.
But I found the solution a few minutes ago:
I downloaded TWRP 3.3.1-13 (one version newer) and flashed it inside of my old TWRP. I rebooted to recovery again and then flashed Magisk without problems.
(The dm verity still refuses to install but the phone is booting and running.)
Well, it always work for me, or simply reboot recovery also work. Try wzsx twrp, it has remove DM verity & forced encryption remover in advanced menu
Here I bring to you the official Havoc-os 4.X ROM Android 11 and fully functional on Redmi 8

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...
Thanks for your answer

You can place it in either of the two, as long as you can access the storage where you placed them from the recovery

Hi, I need to know some things to help you, what ROM did you have before flashing Havoc? do you have the bootloader unlocked? When did you use My flashtool, what method did you use?

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.
I booted on TWRP with fastboot boot TWRP.img 'cuz I can't boot to TWRP with volume up and power...
How can I flash HavocOs in the good way ?
I have Redmi 8 3/32 like you...

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.
