Hi, I have a essential phone running Oreo 8.1, just recently I have rooted the phone with magisk v16 an twrp 3.2.1, I successfully flashed it with twrp but after the flash whenever I want to get into twrp it just freezes up on the mount data screen and I have to force reboot it, does anyone know a solution to this problem
Make sure you're following the exact steps from this post. Every step is crucial (except #3, because you have to disable your screen lock before booting twrp.
You shouldn't have to manually mount anything in TWRP either. The magisk installer might give you an error about mounting system but it doesn't seem to make any difference.

You cannot have TWRP installed with 8.x.
TWRP is not compatible.
You must flash the original boot image, then install magisk.
TWRP cannot remain.
You will boot loop.
Please read the instructions on rooting carefully.
Ok thank you
Why can't TWRP replace recovery instead of boot?

No one has created a bit image with TWRP as the recovery.

Because the partition layout of the Essential does not have a recovery partition.
Recovery is contained in the boot image.
So to have TWRP resident/permanent, the boot image must be patched.
It has been done for 7.x, but sense 8.x is still beta, there is no official TWRP for Oreo.
Once Oreo is final, I expect we will get a TWRP that works.
The current limitation, means you can't flash without a computer handy.
so I installed pie then i flash oreo back and after installing ota update my phone is in bootloop tries to flash many roms but no luck and i followed this tutorial https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/how-to/solution-bootloop-9-0-beta-t3876533 still no luck in the last step after flashing with mi flash still bootloop i dont even get android one logo please help me

my friend, you just go to fast boot mode and enter twrp through fastboot, do data cleaning, cache / delvik, system, internal memory, then from twrp, reboot Fastboot, after that you can flash rom stock cleanly from miflash tools.

The problem is probably because of ARB, not because the partitions haven't been erased.
Hi Guys,
yesterday the new update came out, great.
I of course immediately pulled the zip (source) and installed it with TWRP (source).
So far no problems.
After a while I realized that I no longer had root because the apps stopped working.
When I wanted to boot into the TWRP to reinstall Magisk, I unfortunately found that it was no longer available, but only stock recovery.
Well, I thought to myself and tried to reinstall TWRP (method-twrp-3.3.1-2-davinci-fix), which was fatal, because my cell phone only booted into the Fastboot.
Then I got my cell phone, set up again with the Fastboot method.
Now I'm back to 11.0.4.0 but unfortunately without TWRP and root.
Can someone please describe how I can get TWRP and root again on Android 10?
I am thankful for every help !!!
Same thing happening to me, no matter what I do, stock recovery keeps overwriting TWRP
Oh dear, that doesn't sound good.
I hope there will be a solution to the problem soon.
I don't want to do without TWRP and root.
I wanted to try it according to these instructions "https://miui.blog/redmi-k20/twrp-mi-9t-redmi-k20-vbmeta-mauronofrio/". But don't trust me, I'm afraid that it won't work and I can start all over again.
Flash official TWRP this morning with fastboot commands without problem.
1. reboot in fastboot mode
2. Flash recovery with this command "fastboot flash recovery yourrecovery.img"
3. Reboot in recovery with this command "fastboot boot yourrecovery.img"
Any problems here.
The fact that twrp is lost when flashing official rom (even thought twrp itself) is normal. You just have to reboot into bootloader and flash twrp again and it will be back.
Your problem here is that you are using an old and unofficial twrp build, that has problems on newer roms. Flash official twrp and you'll be fine

Found something on a Russian website.
Обновление TWRP Recovery от LR.Team для устройств на Android 10
Does anyone dare to test this?
Here is the link to the TWRP for our Mi9t
> TWRP-3.3.1-1109-DX (полный комплект для установки) <
Check it out...
I finally got it
I did the following.
"V11.0.4.0.QFJEUXM" flashed in the TWRP and booted into the system, TWRP will be overwritten.
Now flashed TWRP "twrp-3.3.1-0-davinci.img" in Fastboot and booted into Recovery (TWRP).
To be on the safe side, I had the cell phone booted again into the TWRP in the TWRP.
Then I flashed Magisk "Magisk-v20.3.zip".
Booted cell phone into the system and everything works.

Where did you get the twrp file from?
You can use OrangeFox Recovery if you want a TWRP that can survive after flashing MIUI ROMs or updates :

To install TWRP, is it neccesary to wipe Data (or something else)?
And if Data must be wiped, does it mean that Data will no more be encrypted as originally by MIUI?
I have 11.0.4.0, rooted by Magisk (Magisk installed simply by patching and flashing boot.img, did not need TWRP for, did not wipe Data, etc) and I possibly want to have TWRP but don't want to loose encryption of Data, Widewine L1 and so

You don't need to wipe anything to install a custom Recovery (like TWRP).
TWRP can handle ROM encryption, you just need to install a correct TWRP, and version, for your current MIUI / Android version.
A custom Recovery doesn't change Widevine level.
And TWRP is useful in case of bootloop (because of an installed Magisk module, by example) or if you want to easily reinstall Magisk after ROM update.

Ok thanks, so starting from v11.0.4.0 QFJEUXM, rooted by Magisk (did not wipe Data or so, just patched and flashed boot img), is it ok just to flash (from Fastboot) twrp-3.3.1-0-davinci.img, downloaded from the official site https://twrp.me/davinci/twrp-3.3.1-0-davinci.img
Maybe I could test first by
fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-0-davinci.img

Something is fishy. IMO, if that official TWRP is really ok for 11.0.4.0, then it should correctly boot by:
fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-0-davinci.img
But phone rebooted into the dark.
TG, I didn't really flash with, so by long pressing Pow it rebooted to system.
Tried again, no avail
Edit:
Tried the same fastboot boot with
twrp-3.3.1-12-davinci-mauronofrio.img and also OrangeFox-R10.1_1-Stable-davinci.img (obtained by unzipping OrangeFox), but it also reboots to dark and I have to long press Pow to reboot to system

You can install twrp by All In One tool
You can find its thread here itself
I took the official TWRP. " Link "
Flashed in fastboat and then booted the phone with a key combination in TWRP.
With the Fastboot command it didn't work for me either, the cell phone remained black ...
So after a long battle with flashing magisk that resulted in a bootloop everytime I was only able to boot again after flashing the magiskuninstaller. I decided to flash magisk again, flash dmverityencryption disabler and format data as some users suggested.
Now i'm stuck in a full on bootlop.
I decided to wipe everything and just flash the latest miui11 (11.0.4.0) cause that fixed my problems last time. But this time i'm still stuck in a bootloop after flashing the rom. I also noticed that the persist partition is missing for some reason, not sure if it's supposed to be like this. Luckily the phone still boots to orangefox recovery so hopefully I can fix this.
Any advice guys?

Okay, after using the miflash tool the phone boots up again. Now i'll fastboot the orangefox recovery. How do I got about flashing magisk after that so I avoid bootloop again?

Backup and test. Normally no problem, only by updates with old modules
Hey!
I installed LineageOs on my Xiaomi Mi A1, everything went okay but when I installed the Gapps, it got stuck on the LineageOs logo. The volume button wasn't working right, yet somehow, I manage to enter TWRP and wipe that OS and restore the backup with the original Android One. But when I boot it, it got stuck on Android logo, unable to enter fastboot, TWRP or hard reset because of the volume button not working.
I don't know what else to do, to be honest...
p.d.: I'm new here, sorry if this is not the right section to ask.
Are you 100% sure that you have chosen right version of GApps? because i never had any issues with GApps causing boot loop. BTW what lineage os version 16 or 17 ?
I never had any luck restoring stock rom backup via TWRP either i have no idea why whenever i restore it will stuck on androidone logo.

I chose Android 10 GApps since I installed LineageOS 17. I thought it was the right version.
So TWRP can't be used for stock rom? I didn't know, maybe that's what got me stuck on Android One logo.
Any idea on how to get out from that loop? ?
Dont worry bootloop is not a problem download pixel experience it include gapps boot ur phone to twrp copy rom into internal or sd card Wipe system , data , cache and install the rom ..
TWRP should backup and restore stock image but i think there is something with this phone which wont let twrp to apply system restore i have done it 10 times and i failed everytime.
Edit: do let me know how it goes:good:

Definitely I'll try Pixel Experience! Seems like a good choice. I still need to figure out how to enter Fastboot or TWRP without the volume button.
