Cyanogen 12 (Lollipop) to Cyanogen 11 (Kitkat) - YU Yureka General

IT IS POSSSSIIIIIBBBBLLLLLE!​
I am rewriting this tutorial from RDS www.yuplaygod.com member's post
This is only meant for users who had rooted their device, in lollipop, have cwm or twrp recovery installed. IF not rooted find guides for it. (Hint: Google it)
I suggest to not use fastboot for flashing roms... It may brick you device (I meant hard brick)
So here is what we are going to do!
STEPS (VERY SIMPLE)
1) Download Back_to_cm11-signed by Abhiram.zip https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4etFrzyEA01UklKR3N5T2JYeGc/view?usp=sharing
2)Download recovery-yu.img https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4etFrzyEA01d2VGRXNuY2I1MGs/view?usp=sharing
3)Copy Back_to_cm11-signed by Abhiram.zip to SDCARD
4)Open recovery and flash it
5)Open fastboot mode.
6)Connect to your computer and flash recovery-yu.img
7)Open recovery by pressing "vol+"+"vol-"+"pwr"
8)Flash stock rom zip. Go to this guide to get it http://forum.xda-developers.com/yureka/orig-development/rom-t3042384
9) Rock with it!.
********FOR THOSE WHO ARE NOT GOOD WITH FASTBOOT**********
So yureka is something different. So you have to specify the device id for the fastboot to find it.
Install adb-setup.1****.exe https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4etFrzyEA01SE9NTVNRWTl4Y0E/view?usp=sharing
Open CMD
Type fastboot -i 0x1ebf devices
If any device is detected you r good to go
Close CMD
Open the place where you have downloaded recovery-yu.img
By pressing shift, right click the folder (in which you have downloaded recovery-yu.img) click open command window here
and type fastboot -i 0x1ebf boot recovery-yu.img
That's it

Have you tried that and didn't face any hardbricks?

Yes
I risked my own device to prove that. Go ahead 10000% sure that this will work. Because my device did not brick at all
Please hit tanks if you got it working! It is working..

The OP suggest not to use fastboot mode as it may hard brick device & the steps tht follow are based on fastboot option... I'm confused, Is it safe to use fastboot mode thn?

ujilraj their is nothing to be confused. You can use fastboot mode. But if you flash system.img and data.img via fastboot, which has different partition styles, then you will end up with hard bricked phone... That's why!
Flashing recovery is very safe! GO for it!
I have tested it

For further clarification i'm asking this, pardon me...
First i boot into CM12 recovery & flash Back_to_cm11-signed by Abhiram.zip
Then,
Enter fastboot mode & install recovery-yu.img tht belongs to CM11.
Then,
I boot into CM11 recovery & flash any CM11 rom... Rite???

A bit confuse

AND
Code:
fastboot -i 0x1ebf flash tz tz.mbn
fastboot -i 0x1ebf flash hyp hyp.mbn
fastboot -i 0x1ebf flash sbl1 sbl1.mbn

That is good question, I appreciate that.​
So.... I got to say is that. When you use "fastboot -i 0x1ebf flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn " This will format the desired partition and put files there. If the partition table is modified then more likely it would not flash but erase the whole partion. That will lead to a hard bricked phone. The procedure you told will work.
But zip just copies these files to that location..... Sounds great, i think.
IN my opinion ONLY FASTBOOT CAN CAUSE HARD BRICK which is the greatest issue faced by yureka users.
If you managed to flash a 32bit rom in recovery without flashing the zip I have given you, the chances are you end up into a boot loop or Soft Brick. But do the same with fastboot you will end up with Hard bricked phone!
Zip method is always safe. I mean the safest!
Flashing recovery via fast boot don't cause anu Hard Bricks. I tried in my phone, i ended up with Soft Brick.... I repaired it by using unsafe method flashed ROM via fast boot. Luckily there was no partition mismatch. I could have flashed recovery and flashed my zip file!
So my advise please don't use fastboot. It is too dangerous for your phone ( As most of them can't even contact the customer care ) I don't want you to end up like this....
Note: Most of them flash system.img and data.img first .... don't do that... If you r so sure flash the files you mentioned first. As they contain boot loader(Priorety), Modem, Partiton Style, Touch Drivers.......
Good Luck! :good:
I hope this information helped you
Please hit thanks if I helped you in any manner!

Rather than flashing your zip via recovery, can I not use fastboot to flash the following in the order mentioned:
modem, sbl1, aboot, rpm, tz, hyp, recovery. The files that would be used are a part of cm11 fastboot package. After flashing all of these, boot to recovery and then flash the cm11 zip. I'll be essentially doing the same like you did. But I'll be using fastboot to flash firmware specific stuff. I strongly believe that these would not cause the infamous brick.
Thanks,
Sanjay

2 questions :-
1. ) As you said that do not use the fastboot method to flash kitkat rom. My question is, Can i use fastboot method to flash the lollipop 64bit zip file (that is basically the same OTA update file), using same method which was used to flash kitkat (by extracting the zip file contents to a common folder containing flash-all.bat, if u remmeber?). Basically i want to know a method to re-flash lollipop 64 bit , if any1 knows?
2.) Once i suceed to get kitkat rom back , from the lollipop 64 bit. Can i use FASTBOOT method in FUTURE flashes to flash kitkat based custom roms or should i permanently DISCONTINUE flashing through fastboot, even after getting kitkat rom back by your method?
thanks in advance .... :good:
---------- Post added at 12:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:41 AM ----------
Also i want to know. is there something like 32bit and 64 bit recovery. I hv heard that flashing incoatiable recovery can also lead to hard brick.
which recovery to flash when.??
could be great if any1 has positive information and can guide....

There is nothing to be confused. there are 32 bit and 64 bit recoveries. Flashing wrong recovery will only softbrick your phone. I did it ones accidentally
32bit recovery https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4etFrzyEA01d2VGRXNuY2I1MGs&authuser=0
64bit recovery https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4etFrzyEA01NnZBWHcxWlVHTW8&authuser=0
If you want to flash lollipop then download lollipop flash-able zip file click here for zip file
There are some good working fastboot upgrade packages. So if you have one of them ( Tried it yourself to upgrade and worked earlier) Then use that package it will work!. Flashing with zip file with recovery reduces risk!:good:

ok . m not gonna use fastboot. But how will i flash signed lollipop zip file on custom recovery and unlocked bootloader. it wont boot. I would need an unsigned lollipop 64 bit zip file or rather a locked bootloader + stock 64 bit recovery . Any link for stock 64 bit recovery ? is above link for stock or custom recovery?

Yes it will boot.
Link above is for custom CWM recovery.
Warning ******** Boring Story Ahead*********
So i purchased my yureka from Amazon. When i got it, I unlocked boot loader, installed cwm recovery right away. When the lollipop upgrade showed up I tried to download it via system upgrade. It downloaded but wont flash because of a custom recovery. So... I downloaded a signed zip file from xda attachment which i gave you. I cleared cache and tried installing the zip file.... It actually works.
Why it worked?
Stock rom looks for signed zips and it should be signed my their developer. But custom recoveries installs any zip file which is flashable regardless they are signed or unsigned. The only thing it looks for is the scripts and device compactability.
So try flashing the lollipop signed zip file. It will surely work...
So... What will the zip file do?
It will wipe system, modem, recovery etc exept data. Resize them and copy files in.
So ... What will you end up with.
Obviously,
A locked bootloader ( Which when unlocked wipes data)
A stock old cyanogen recovery.
Non rooted CM12.....
So this means that if you want to be a power user you have to start form beginning. So... consider taking a nandroid backup before you upgrade.....
STEPS TO BACKUP DATA ON CYANOGEN 11
So... Abhiram I cant find my backup on sdcard
answer to this question is very simple. You know that your sdcard and app memory are same. So they created a new folder 0 and mounted as your sdcard.
So... How do you get that out....
There are 2 methords
Common step boot into recovery and connect your mobile to your computer. Make sure that ADB drivers are installed
Methord 1
Type
"adb shell
cp -r /sdcard/clockworkmod/ /sdcard/0/android/
adb reboot"
So after the phone rebooted. Open file manage ( anyone ) Browse into android folder in your sdcard, you will find your backup there. If you cant find your whole backup , the chances are you r running out of memory.
Methord 2
type
"adb pull /sdcard/clockworkmod/ %UserProfile%/documents/backup_from_nandroid/ "
Your backup can be found in c:/users/<your user name here>/documents/backup_from_nandroid/
So that is it....
So when you unlock boot loader you can copy this backup into your phone by....
1) Copy backup to adb folder
2) Type adb push <Directory name> /sdcard/clockworkmod/
Then do a advanced restore. Select data and restore
done!

Tips to avoid hardbrick.
Don't flash ROM via fastboot
Don't Format partition using fast boot
You can flash boot and recovery via fastboot.
You can do anything in recovery.
Advice backup ROM before you install kernel, or any zip files. That will help you if you soft brick your phone.
Hit thanks if I help you in anyway till now.

On reading the OP's comments another doubt occurred, Do i need to unlock bootloader all the time when switching between KK & LP? (Will the internal SD memory gets wiped all the time... Do i need to backup every data on the internal SD memory onto PC before switching from KK to LP & vice-versa?)

Yes, but in case of upgrading and unlocking boot loader
Nice Question
When you downgrade from CM12 to CM11 your data will be safe. Unlocking boot loader will not do anything with your data:angel:
But When you are upgrading from CM11 to CM12 your data will be also safe, but the problem occurs when you try to unlock boot loader It will wipe all of your data.:crying:
When we unlock boot loader in kitkat CM11 by using command fastboot -i 0x1ebf oem unlock
It doesn't ask for any confirmations.
But in case of CM12 when you unlock boot loader by using the same command, before wiping data, it asks for confirmation. ie It tells to push vol+ to confirm or push vol - to stop.
If you see like this. Fastboot is going to erase your sdcard.
Its a good practice to backup your data when you r playing with your phones firmware, It will help you get back your memorable moments, favorite music etc.
If you have an otg cable. Keep a pendrive for backup
So concluding in unlocking CM11 no data loss unlocking in CM12 there is data loss.
Good luck:good:​

One more doubt, suppose i'm on KK & want to upgrade to some custom CM12.x rom, do i need to go through the process of installing stock cm12 all the time, or do u suggest any other simple way to directly do the same?

My phone is the ASUS Zenfone 3 deluxe (zs550kl) model and its bricked only can enter fastboot or adb still but my os will not boot I tried going to asus website for stock firmware (UL-Z018-WW-11.40.71.37-user.zip) and stock kernel (ZS550KL_Kermel_11_40_71_37.zip). how do I install these to fix my phone unless there is a better way to make it boot. by the way im new to android I always had iphone jailbroken until last year I am android now but give me noob instructions for the how to. maybe I should add this I already have adb/fastboot installed and the commands for adb devices or fastboot devices when in fastboot mode both recognize my device so maybe my commands are wrong or something but I tried every way I could toinstill firmware and not sure what to flash kernel as the zip or the file unzipped please help thanks in advance. Not sure why this happened exactly but my bootloader is unlocked already but was never rooted so if there is another way to install another custom firmware besides stock I would like those instructions also thanks again
first off your phone is soft brick meaning all you have to do is flash the stock android software back onto your phone.
install to sd card -> boot into recovery (stock or twrp whatever you have works)
flash from sd
let it load (this will work if you have the correct files)
it will reboot and will work good as new again.
you shouldnt have to flash the kernal, just the UL-Z0 file.
That would have worked yesterday but im having another issue now basically instead of waiting for a response on here I went ahead and did other stuff now my recovery menu is not showing up so I cant install from sd now the only option I'm getting is fastboot so is there a way to fix the stock recovery option or even install a custom recovery which might be eaiser because my bootloader is already unlocked. I was going to try to flash stock recovery my self but not sure how exactly I know I use fastboot flash recovery (recovery file name in the folder) and I think it's .img but not sure so I think it will be either .zip or .img file type but not sure what it will be called if it's stock or custom and not sure where to find either. Last issue I'm not sure of is the actual files I downloaded from asus.com the firmware for my specific phone model not working when I try to flash it as the .zip file so my question is do you need to do something with it such as edit the script of something inside the zip of it and I also downloaded the kernel for my specific phone model from the Asus site and not sure if I needed it when flashing stock rom back to device or how to even flash it on the device please help if you can and I know some questions might be dumb to you but remember I'm a noob when it comes to Android recently left iPhone and I was a pro there every phone had a jailbreak and all types of stuff so I know I can get this just takes time I'm sure
I have this exact issue with a new Padfone Infinity A86... No access to stock recovery, only fast boot... But in my case I'm even unable to flash the recovery.img from a firmware package...
I'm wondering if you guys can help this person, maybe there is something in that solution for my Padfone
1: download the full firmware package
2: use sdat2img to convert the sparse system image to a regular one
3: use fastboot to flash the stock boot.img & the newly converted system.img
4: hoping you didn't flash the recovery partition, if you did, reflash the stock dump from the file in my Bootloader unlock thread via fastboot
5: reboot to recovery & do a factory reset
Read the documentation at each step, do your research, learn the process.

Xiaomi 6 problem!

Hey guys, I am new to the forum and this is my first time posting, yesterday I made a stupid mistake of flashing my Xiaomi 6 MIUI to Lineage OS, I didn't do it correctly and it resulted a bootloop, I managed to flash back the stock rom via fastboot, it did boot up into MIUI, but I cannot connect to network as nothing is shown there and it just stucks in updating...
I also have TWRP but somehow Xiaomi recovery had taken over and I have no idea how to enter TWRP, (tried volume up + PWR, both volume + PWR, volume down + PWR which just gives me fastboot, Volume up plus + home...) is there anyway for me to get to TWRP and maybe I can try to flash Lineage?
Or how can I flash back to the stock rom via fastboot/TWRP, thank you for your help~!
Flash twrp from fastboot, make a fastboot format userdata and from twrp wipe all and then flash firmware, rom of your choice, gapps if you want and the others. Then reboot.

No you can't do anything with a locked bootloader. But since you have permission to unlock your bootloader with xiaomi's tool then unlock it again. (To be honest I've first unlocked at octover and haven't locked it again so I don't know if you'd have to wait for another 3 days. But after getting it unlocked it'd be okay, you'll be able to use fastboot so no worries)

Do you have a file called recovery.img at the same directory with the fastboot binary file? If no either rename it or write the recovery img 's actual name in terminal after fastboot flash recovery.

I am not sure what fastboot binary file is...sorry, but I think what you meant is having TWRP file at the same location as the Minimal ADB and Fastboot program? If so yes I do, I did save the TWRP as the same location AND I did renamed it recovery.img, should I use MIUI Recovery Tool to install TWRP for me?
Thanks once again! Really appreciated.

If so yes I do, I did save the TWRP as the same location AND I did renamed it recovery.img, should I use MIUI Recovery Tool to install TWRP for me?
Thanks once again! Really appreciated.

Check the file name correctly. Windows doesn't show every extension name so maybe the file you see as "recovery.img" is actually "recovery.img.img". Enable to show all extensions from explorer settings (search for it in Google because I forget it too even though I'm doing it on all windows pcs I use
And for what that so called "fastboot binary file" is just that "fastboot" file in adb and fastboot folder. It's a binary type file and that's why I'm referring to it as a binary file (it has executable codes in it). And the difference from a text file is while a text file has a structure like "file start"+"the actual text in it"+"file end", a binary file has executable codes in it so you execute it (like typing "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img ; it means you're running fastboot to execute it's flash function to recovery partition of your device, and the file you want to use as the input is twrp.img in this example. It's good to learn.)

Not portion, but partition. Partitions are simply the different parts on a storage. For example when you open a file explorer on your device you see your sdcard folder which is in data partition. System files are in system partition, kernel is in boot partition etc.
And yes simply in twrp under wipe select advanced wipe and select all of them, wipe. After that from the same screen select format data, type yes to confirm and reboot to recovery again.
Then while in twrp copy files you want to flash to your device (or use an usb flash drive with otg, which I prefer but for this don't forget to tick usb otg in mount section in twrp)
Personally I flash firnware, rom, gapps and reboot, configure my account settings and auto download apps etc. Then when finished go back to recovery and flash magisk (flash magisk after booting into the system at least for once or most likely you won't pass safetynet checks) for root and the other things (e.g. font).

You're welcome but I'm pretty sure you'd figure it out yourself if you've wanted.
Which lineageos? And I suggest you to wait for the official los (next week I think) and try omnirom official for example. Officials are better for newcomers but try to not to spam the threads with the questions without doing some research first. You know I could just ignore your topic in the beginning and maybe nobody would answer it and you'd be on your own with all those comments on other threads without a proper preliminary knowledge.

you can flash lineageos or MIUI by TWRP,just simply flow the wipe,then flash miui or lineageos ,but if you flash miui,you might go back to mi official recovery instead of TWRP(poor English).

How do you even get the phone to be recognised to initiate the flash if its stuck in constant boot loop??
Normally your laptop or pc needs to recognise the phone before it can start the flash right?

unbrick Nokia 3.2

Hello together,
after many tries to get my nokia 3.2 rooted, i end up now with a black screen.
Only the Qulacomm mode is working.
Get anyone managed to flash the stock firmware with QFIL provided from the rooting thread?
I always end up with "sahara fails".
Every help is welcome!
Thanks!!!!
After many tries I have finally put my phone back to life.
My instructions how to do it will come soon!

please do, i encountered a similar problem.
HowTo Flash STOCK 00WW
1. Trigger nokia 3.2 to edl-mode (https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-3-2/how-to/guide-how-to-trigger-nokia-3-2-to-edl-t3962841)
2. Flash the given image from this thread (https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-3-2/how-to/rooted-nokia-3-2-t3945206)
- This was the main problem. I never managed it to flash the image with the Windows Programmer QFIL. After more research in Internet, i found finally a Linux application called QDL that work directly without any problems. This application can be found here https://www.96boards.org/documentation/consumer/guides/qdl.md.html .
- Flashing the software ends up into a bootloop. Also i got a message on startup that the bootloader could not be trusted anymore. After a software-update, this message disappears.
3. Flash all the user images again manually with fastboot.
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
flastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
Whyever you have to flash this partitions only to the active partitions without the suffix _a or _b.
Then the bootloop is finished.
The phone boots normally to Android ONE.
The next problem which occurs on my phone is now that it is not able to connect to GSM network. I guess this happens because i deleted all the necessary partitions for the modem (modemst1, modemst2, fsg).
I get it managed to restore the imei, but still no service available.
In original my phone had the software 00EEA. Perhaps they use different drivers. My luck is that i got a cheap damaged phone from ebay with that firmware.
My next step is to modify the code from QDL that it can read the partitions from the damaged phone and save the software to computer.
Then i will flash this software to my phone and look if this software will run on my phone!

Thank you for your reply, it seems that your problem is more complicated than mine.
I have a global variant with 00WW software and i attempt to root the phone. I successfully flash the patched boot.img and had root access. However wi-fi didn't work after that.
Since before flashing the patched boot.img my phone was running on a different firmware from the one that boot.img was extracted from, so i think that was the problem.
I attempted to use QFIL to flash my phone back to 00WW_15 and it failed half way, bricked my phone.
Normally you can use the EDL Mode every time.
My phone only showed black screen and it was always possible to connect in EDL Mode and flash again.
Did you try to flash again? What happens then?

What did you mean by Flash the given image ? Was it flash the firmware package with QFIL ?
My main problem is flashing, it always failed half-way and the error log reported that needed files were missing from the package.
Okay. I used the linux program QDL for flashing.
But i saw, that in the xml file rawprogram0.xml a few files are missing.
The linux programm jump over these files but perhaps QFIL do not.
For example is there a picture.img listed which is not available..
Try to remove them manually from the rawfile and test again.

Also the files "demoapp.img", "dp_AP_signed.mbn" and "dp_MSA_signed.mbn" are missing.
Remove them from the XML file and try again!

Hello,
my nokia 3.2 europe variant wont boot up its stuck in fastboot mode. What can i do to bring it back?
I get this: FAILED (remote: partition table doesn't exist)
P.S. if i do a fastboot reboot it boots back into bootloader
I also had this problems for many many times and don't know what went wrong when this happens.
The only thing that helped was flashing the complete firmware again in EDL-mode.
You can try first to flash only the 5 user-images with fastboot, which i mentioned before in this thread.
I uploaded this files for you, because you don't will find the europe files in internet yet.
Here is the link:
https://transfernow.net/81iti7q21s0s
Good luck!
Hi,
Thank you very much. Is this the complete Firmware? (All Images from Device) Another question: I couldnt Access the recovery System. Did you have the same Problem when your Nokia didnt boot up and was stuck in Bootloader? So is this normal that the recovery is unaccessible?
Yes, that also happens sometimes with my phone.
No, that are not all firmware files, which you need to do a full EDL-Flash.
But with this files you can first try a fastboot flash!
If it does not work, you can take all the other files from the Global-Stock-Firmware, given in the thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-3-2/how-to/rooted-nokia-3-2-t3945206.
Delete the 5 files with the same names, flash the Global-Stock-Firmware in EDL-Mode, with QFIL or QDL, (without the 5 files) and in the following flash the 5 europe-image files with fastboot.
Thanks, ive sent it in and got Friday a 00WW Variant of the device back. I will upload those User images for 00EEA to my Google drive so that anyone who needs those files can download them

Fix Brick after Flashing TWRP

This one comes from my personal experience
I decided to flash TWRP for some reason and it was bricked (I dont even know what to call it - Soft or Hard Brick)
I couldn't Boot into MIUI nor Fastboot nor Recovery
So here's the fix:
1)Download XiaoMITool V2
2)Open it up
3)Select: My Device is Bricked
4)Now go to your phone, and hold all buttons until the screen goes black (The screen will be on but it will be black, Look at the phone from the sideways to check)
5)Now on your PC, your device should come up as unknown and it should say that it is in Recovery
6)Select your device
7)At first it will manage and boot into fastboot but it will drop you out so just repeat the process from Step 4
8)Now the stock ROM will download and automatically flash (Do note that it will probably take a few hours since Xiaomi's servers are ****
9) If you have MiFlash tool with your rom downloaded, Just turn off MiTool and flash it through MiFlash.
10)If you're booted into Fastbootd just turn off and on your device again
And Done! For you it might take anywhere from 5-10 Minutes to flash the ROM fully, but after that your device will be usable!

If you are using V12.0.5.0 or higher, TWRP will not work.
If you want to keep TWRP working on V12.0.5.0 or higher, you need to flash the stock rom lk partition using V12.0.4.0 (or lower). (It will works perfectly with lower lk partition version).
Here, are LK images for flashing: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...omi-redmi-note-9-xiaomi-redmi-10x-4g.4218925/
If you want to disable TWRP, you need to flash stock rom recovery partition.
Here, are RECOVERY images for flashing: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...omi-redmi-note-9-xiaomi-redmi-10x-4g.4204671/
If your device keep booting in recovery (or blackscreen), you need to erase misc partition.
Here, is the guide for erasing MISC partition: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...omi-redmi-note-9-xiaomi-redmi-10x-4g.4209299/
If you want to know what is working for MERLIN, take a look: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...omi-redmi-note-9-xiaomi-redmi-10x-4g.4204873/

Question Find Device storage corrupted. Your device is unsafe now.( POCO F3 and Other MIUI Devices)

Last night I do have a problem with the custom rom that I have installed, because of the battery problem keeps on dropping, so I decided to go back to the official stock rom which is for global however after flashing the fastboot rom via Miflash Tool, I have a welcome message that says Find Device storage corrupted. Your device is unsafe now. I thought that I just need to activate this to the device admin, after a reboot I tried to check it out if this message if this message will still pop up, and it keeps on popping up. I have flashed the rom again and it keeps on happening.
Things that I have Tried:
So I tried to check for other ways that I could get rid of this but this doesnt work on the terminal via TWRP. "

forum.xda-developers.com
".
The one that works:
Things that you needed:
1. Download Mi Flash Tool(https://www.xiaomiflash.com/)
2. Minimal ADB and Fastboot
3. 7zip or BreeZip
4. TWRP A12(
TWRP A12.rar
drive.google.com
) if you are using other MIUI and devices and want to check it this will work then just use your twrp that is recommended for your mui device.
5. Global Rom (https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/alioth/stable/V12.5.6.0.RKHMIXM/)
warning: make sure that you are using the right rom for your device, my device that I am using is a global variant so I need to flash a global version, if you are using other MIUI device and want to check it out just download the miui that works for you must be on a later update of the rom if the latest current rom that you are working on right now didnt work.
Steps to follow.
1. Extract the Rom which you have downloaded using the 7zip or BreeZip, so for me I extracted the version 12.5.6.0 take note that this is not the latest rom but for this to work we need to be in a later update this rom is an android version 11.
2. after extracting the fastboot rom file type TGZ you will notice that the one that you extracted is on a TAR file type, and you need to extract the TAR file type for you to have the folder "alioth_global_images_V12.5.6.0.RKHMIXM_20220210.0000.00_11.0_global_62b4f5d6ca"
3. Using the Mi Flash Tool, just pick the clean all and start the flashing.
4. After flashing the rom set up the phone but do not update it.
5. On your extracted folder for the rom go to the folder that says images and look for 'persist" this is an img file. copy the persist img file and paste it on your Internal memory of your phone.
6. Turn off your phone and go to fastboot by pressing the volume down as well as the power button. You will notice that the fastboot logo is the older version since we are using an older rom.
7. Extract the TWRP A12 and you should have the disc recovery image of it, copy and paste it on your Minimal ADB and Fastboot folder and rename it "recovery".
8. While you are on the Minimal ADB Fastboot folder make sure that your phone is plug in to the usb port on your computer, click the cmd here on the Minimal ADB and Fastboot Folder and you should able to run the cmd.
9. run the following commands:
fastboot devices (then press the enter)
warning: make sure that the fastboot devices is able to see your device.
after seeing the device run this command:
fastboot boot recovery.img (then press enter)
the device should boot to the twrp if its on chinese look for settings and set it to english. we are not flashing the twrp we are just going to use it temporarily thats why we are only going to boot it to twrp recovery.
10. On your twrp, go to install, click the install image and look for your persist.img that we have copied earlier to your internal memory
you should find it on the sdcard folder. just flash and you will see that you have successfully flashed the persist image and then just reboot your phone.
After rebooting your phone you will notice that the "Find Device storage corrupted. Your device is unsafe now." will not prompt. Since I already have the current fastboot rom I have tried to flash the current fastboot rom and locked my device and fixed the problem permanently without any problem.
You wrote too much for something that could be written in a few sentences. And why would anyone downgrade an android or flash a clean fastboot ROM? (Android or MIUI version doesn't matter)
Summary guide:
1. Download the fastboot ROM from here and extract the "persist.img" image or dump the "persistbak" partition from your device and rename this file to "persist.img"
2. Put persist.img into your device's internal memory and go to TWRP
3. In TWRP, go to: Install> select install image> select file persist.img> select "Persist" partition
4. Restart the device, it should work fine

Wrote it down for the newbies that doesnt know how to fix anyway thanks for the summary. I have to downgraded it because the latest current rom doesnt work give me "invalid sparse file format at header magic" error as I flash the persist.img file, via twrp.

If you are using TWRP from Nebrassy then use skkk TWRP or OrangeFox. Flashing persist should work fine on both recoveries (I did it myself recently).

Thats great but this is the one that works for me anyways. At least we have found out the things that we needed in order for it to be fixed. Just sharing my ideas and how did I fixed the problem myself. Thanks for sharing of your ideas. Hoping that we could share our ideas to others as well. Been on a nightmare last night cant sleep because of this problem. Trying to figure out what to do since using the cmds via terminal on twrp doesnt work for me. Need to downgrade for me to fix it.

Could you please confirm if flashing persist.img doesn't mess up with sensor like fingerprint, l1, compass etc..? I have seen other forums talking about possibility of losing these in case perist is flashed from rom. I have this message for some time now, but all other sensors work fine, even l1 certification and saftynet. Thanks in advance.
