How to install TWRP and Magisk on Redmi 8?
I always end up in a bootloop and have to flash official rom over and over again.
I'm looking for installing twrp for the redmi 8 Olive, but still haven't found it. Where did you get yours?

Same here bro
Maybe you guys need to flash the no verity zip file after magisk?
Not sure if that will do the trick tho.
How are you installing magisk without any official or unofficial twrp???

I am not sure, but on cz.xiaomi page one admin take this link to redmi 8 twrp. I dont try it because i dont have unlock bootloader now.
Sorry i try to take link in here but this stupid server rules... "To prevent spam on the XDA forums, ALL new users prevented from posting outside links in their messages. After approximately 10 posts, you will be able to post outside links. Thank you for understanding!"
Go to miuios.cz to section redmi 8/8A, post MIUI CZ SK ROM + TWRP, you must be loged and in VMach3 post is this link.
I have only tried to boot mentioned recovery, but it was not working for me.
Code:
~/Downloads$ fastboot boot recovery-TWRP-3.3.1-1127-REDMI8-CN.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 2.107s]
booting...
OKAY [ 2.121s]it
finished. total time: 4.228s
~/Downloads$
After automatic reboot started system. When manualy restarted phone booted to vendor recovery mode. No adb was available and any try to boot to system was failure - phone always booted to recovery mode. To boot to system I needed to select "wipe data" and then reboot to phone (but all previous data/configuration was deleted).
One more try with this Unofficial TWRP 3.3.1-1127 for REDMI 8 by wzsx150, this time it was success, everything was working smoothly.
Install from fastboot mode:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-TWRP-3.3.1-1127-REDMI8-CN-wzsx150.img

my device:
Code:
fastboot getvar product
product: olive
Tested also with rom MIUI 11 xiaomi.eu without issues.

Hi. Am I right, this TWRP is for China version of Redmi 8? I have Global version. Will it work for me?

TWRP is language and version (global, china etc.) neutral. You have on first screen by first run button on right side at the bottom where you can select english language.
If you want root your phone with magisk, go directly to canary version. By stable version I got root only by adb, other apps were denied root access and freeze for a short time (for ex. Total commander beta).
On the other hand I was not able to use phone with not encrypted data with none of magisk version (stable or canary) even if I had "Preserve forced Encryption" unticked.
Code:
~$ adb shell getprop ro.crypto.state
encrypted
Tested on MIUI 11.0.4 by xiaomi.eu.
Unable to install official TWRP in Redmi 8, Miui 11.0.7. It installed. and then vanished when rebooted. and then boot looped. Had to flash original recovery and boot img to reboot.
Had made sure that I didn't boot to system after flashing TWRP. and boot to recovery instead. It flashed okay. Could use the root after installing Magisk. But on reboot, all was gone. Boot looped.

Hello,
Did you reboot via button combo or fastboot reboot?
I read somewhere that Magisk is to be flashed before reboot.
Anyway, you will succeed.
I follow you because I am at 100 h to unlock.

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

i have same issue. I use miui 11 android 9.
You have to flash magisk or other rom.
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
I just install the custom recovery of Pixel experience on my Redminote 11 2201117tg 6/128
after i successfully install the custom recovery (base on adb log) when i boot it to recovery mode it will show the MI logo then start to fading then it will go back to fastboot mode

Try another TWRP/OF :https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=329301
After booting into recovery, you need to "install current recovery" or something like that. Another mistake you might have done is flashing the zip insteadof img or vice versa . I actually did that last one by mistake. There is a pretty good video guide on YouTube, look it up.
anw i already switch to Pixel Experience on RN11 but my problem now is i cannot use GCAM its alwaysnot responding and close after i open the app is there any link you can give me GCAM for PE+ RN11 tanks
has anyone tried yet fastboot flash recovery twrp.img to install twrp?

I am not responsible for any mishaps you may do on your device!
Prerequisites
Unlocked bootloader (Obviously )
Must've installed android_sdk/platform-tools, if not download and install it here, afterwards extract it to somewhere easily accessible
The recovery itself, to which you may download it here officially, and place it inside to where the android_sdk/platform-tools where extracted
A personal computer
Steps
Reboot to fastboot and plug your USB cable to your PC
On your PC launch command prompt to where the extracted android_sdk/platform-tools are
Verify if your PC detects your device by inserting fastboot devices if your device is not detected you may need to install specific driver for your device.
Flash the respective recovery image using fastboot flash boot <recovery_filename>.img (replace <recovery_filename> with the actual filename!)
After installation verify if recovery is installed by rebooting to recovery using fastboot reboot recovery
You are done, congratulations!
Can I install other custom rom via Pixel Recovery via this? Cause Pixel Experience development seems stopped.

Yes, you can utilize the adb side load feature to install the operating system you want.
After flashing the recovery, i get:
Code:
fastboot reboot recovery
fastboot: usage: unknown reboot target recovery
Official guide is here :

Does this work for Redmi note 11?
I'm having issues on my recovery mode, my touch is not responding (TWRP installed), but works in normal boot with some problems (this happened after I changed my screen)
So can this recovery install custom roms and also work with the volume buttons?
