Most likely, im not the only one saying it didnt work on xt1773

@Francesco Franz mate, after flashing the TWRP on my XT1770 I get also just a black screen when I try to boot into the recovery mode. Could it be, that the .img file is just sligtly too big? I get an output:
Code:
# fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
target reported max download size of 134217728 bytes
sending 'recovery' (13426 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.559s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.315s]
finished. total time: 0.874s
(my ubuntu PC)# fastboot reboot
rebooting...
finished. total time: 0.053s
I can normally reboot the phone into its Android OS

Maybe the 'fastboot' was implied by your mention of fastboot, but just wanted the command to be correct and clearly understood.

Which version are you trying?
Are you booting to TWRP from fastboot or installing twrp from fastboot?
Try booting to twrp from fastboot and then installing TWRP with the ZIP
Latest version only give me bootloops
twrp-pixel-installer-marlin-3.0.2-0-RC1.zip works for me though.

I'm having the exact same problem as we speak... had it with skipsoft toolkit and doing it manual through adb..
I'm using "twrp-3.0.2-0-RC1-fastboot-marlin.img"
I'm just going to leave it on that start screen for 30ish mins see if anything happens.
btw I also reverted from Android O to N

fixed my bootloop... thought i messed up really bad.. Gonna leave it for now.. giving me a headache.
Let me know if you find a fix please <3
It is happening when you revert from O back to N. Now I'm sure most of this is overkill but not sure which part actually resolved it. Here's how I fixed it -
in recovery, format userdata via fastboot (i actually did erase data first, then format data)
switch to the other slot and do the same
Flash latest N factory image
reboot to welcome screen
reboot into recovery
switch to other slot and flashed latest N factory image again (overkill, I know)
reboot to welcome screen
reboot to bootloader
set twrp as boot image and it will boot successfully into temporary twrp
install twrp zip
install the image signer zip
restart to welcome screen
restart to recovery
do steps 1 and 2 again
restart
profit
If you need more specific instructions, let me know and I'll type it out and make it more clear. Good luck.

Problem when I install the TWRP

Hi. Sorry for my bad english..
I'm trying to root and setup the TWRP...
When I have install and enter the TWRP I don't have any storage and I can't Backup... And I can't install Magisk... I'm stuck...
Pic.
Someone have a solution?
Regards
you can try different things?
format data partition using twrp.
If that didnt work try flash stock recovery and erase everyting.
Or ompletely reflash everything:
i dont know... but you can try to put this zip (http://oxygenos.oneplus.net.s3.amazonaws.com/O2N_OBT_17801_OXYGEN_SIGN_wipe.zip.zip) on your phone then flash stock recovery and then flash this downloaded zip... it will install OOS 4.7.5 from there reinstall to whatever you were on... But this method will erase everything on your phone!
Going cracy :\ What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for awnser. I will try
Every time I want to get in to TWRP I need to install it again, every time... "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" ...
BTW The first problem I got was to install the ADB setup and get the files to show up on my c: drive... I think I give up.

yeah me 2... i also installed drivers then files showed up in windows explorer
And twrp will be replaced on boot/reboot unless you root after flashing twrp with something like magisk...
Can someone please give me a "IDIOT proof" "HOW TO GUIDE" to me ?
Once you're on TWRP, did you flash Magisk just after, before rebooting on system?
If not, you lose twrp at every reboot. You'll be on stock recovery systematically.

Download:
1) MINIMAL ADB & FASTBOOT : https://goo.gl/UbFXdA
2) STOCK OOS FILE : http://oxygenos.oneplus.net.s3.amazonaws.com/O2N_OBT_17801_OXYGEN_SIGN_wipe.zip.zip
this is nougat 4.7.5 if i remember it correctly
3) Stock Recovery : https://goo.gl/2kmbB7
4) Flash stock recovery (fastboot flash recovery [recoveryfilename.img])
5) In recovery erase everyting incl personal data.
6) fastboot boot [twrpfilename.img]
This wil boot twrp once so you can place OOS rom in internal storage
7) reboot to recovery.. and install zip you just placed on phone.
8) reboot... if everything works, then reinstall twrp codeworkx or blu_spark
9) after flashing twrp...boot to twrp and flash magisk... this will root your phone and this way twrp will not be replaced after first boot with stock recovery.
10) let me know if you have questions or if it worked etc :good:

Reboot to recovery: "the system has been destroyed"

Hi
I followed this guide to root my son's phone
(the bootloader was already unlocked or so I tought - see below)
Now when I tried to reboot to twrp to root the phone, following these instructions in the guide:
“How To Root Mi A2 / A2 Lite Using Magisk
…
Now, boot your Xiaomi device into the TWRP Recovery Mode by pressing and holding the Volume Up and Power buttons simultaneously for a couple of seconds until the device starts booting.
…”

it does not boot to TWRP but instead displays a red error triangle with the message“The system has been destroyed”; I get exactly the same message after using the adb command
Code:
adb reboot recovery
as an alternative reboot-to-recovery method.
Reboot to system is perfectly fine!
Help anyone? Could it be the bootloader was not properly unlocked... I dit it when I received the phone and wa spretty sure it was unlocked then
Thanks

It's not a bootloader issue ,it is problem with the recovery.Use twrp 3.3.3-1-offain or 3.3.3-1dees_troy.

Hi again @a1291762
I already downloaded and flashed the official daisy twrp but that didn't do it, 3.3.0 it was.
On the official twrp.me website there is only Dees_troy version (true I didn't try 3.3.1 - will do so tonight) - no offain version.
Just wondering, I think I saw some command in some posts to allow flashing on the Mi A2 lite - would that be required here (although not stated in the guide I referenced)?
[EDIT] found this:
I am seeing the ‘System has been destroyed’ message after installing TWRP on Mi A2 Lite (daisy)?
Then download the ‘aboot.img’ from V9.6.4.0 (Download Link), boot your Mi A2 to Fastboot Mode and flash it using the following command:
Code:
fastboot flash aboot_a aboot_9.6.4.img
fastboot flash aboot_b aboot_9.6.4.img
According to the explanation given by XDA Senior Member mac12m99, the newer bootloader (aboot.img) version checks for stock recovery, even when the bootloader is unlocked. To overcome this, you can flash an older bootloader version (Especifically from V9.6.4.0) to fix this issue.

10.0.9.0 broke all the old twrps. Only 3.3.1 works now.
The official TWRP maintainer for daisy is dees troy.
Offain does the lineage ROM for daisy. I don't know how people get links to his TWRP. Search?
That guide looks ancient. TWRP and Magisk install guides can be found in this forum... I wrote a combined one (since having both complicates OTA) but if you're doing a custom ROM... It will depend.
Many custom ROMs want an encryption Disabler fix because they can't handle the encryption (which is on even if you don't have a password).
I've seen lots of surprise by people at the processes required for this phone. It was certainly different to what I've done before, but my last phone was pre-magisk and pre-A/B partitioning so I figured that's just how things are on newer phones.

Then use 3.3.3-1 dees_troy or :
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-Enw0Kn2CAYyfN1Krv8t3CVNLyn0p0JX/view?usp=drivesdk
Here is the link for twrp 3.3.3-1 offain version ,but it is in .img format.Dont install it via fastboot or TWRP .You can boot it via this command:
fasboot boot twrp-daisy-3.3.1-0-offain.img ,install everything you want,and you'll be ok ,if you don't need permanent twrp recovery!
If you want permanent installation - I am using Android All in One tool from another XDA thread and that's what i do:
Reboot in Fastboot mode,then connect the device to PC open the all-in-one tool on your windows computer ,then click on the "Recovery Flasher and Device Rooter" button(after you see that the device is recognised in the program) ,you need to choose which version- set it to MANUAL. From there navigate to the recovery files(dees_troy and offain) in the first row navigate to the recovery image (offain) ,on the second row navigate to the recovery zip (dees_troy).Then hit the Flash button. The phone will boot in 3.3.3-1 offain twrp ,and automatically will install the dees_troy version and when everything is installed,the phone will reboot after the flash again in recovery.All the time i have 100% success with this all in one tool. When you are ready with the installation of twrp ,flash magisk and reboot to system.
Here is the thread for the tool:

I guarantee it works every time with 100% chance for success

Thanks @a1291762 & @nikoman1987 but the tool won't do it for me at home
I do not think I need permanent TWRP (although I know how nice it is to know you can always fall back to twrp - I will have to use a PC instead); my intention is to flash https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/development/lineageos-16-0-xiaomi-mi-a2-lite-t3919060LineageOS with temporary twrp 3.3.3-1 offain version

Your choice , but I always prefer to have permanent twrp with custom ROMs . You know what's best for you.

I got this message after formatting the data and wiping system, trying to install LO:
Code:
"Device unable to boot. Error - mdtp image is corrupted"
I am now stuck on fastboot!
From the post https://forum.xda-developers.com/nov...7#post80993947
I understand I have to flash BOOT/RECOVERY/SYSTEM imgs to restore your device;
the commands are
Boot:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Recovery:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
System:
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
but the question is where can I get the
boot.img
recovery.img
system.img
for the xiaomi Mi A2 Lite (daisy); bearing in mind the phone is on a 2 partition system?
Thanks a lot in advance

There is no recovery image because this is an A/B partitioned phone.
The mdtp issue seems to be a real issue for some people.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/help/device-unable-to-boot-error-mdtp-image-t3926962
The advice I gave there is all I can give here. Try to fastboot/MiFlash a stock ROM.
If you don't have a stock image, they're listed here:

Note that the newest image is 10.0.13.0 (14, 15, 16 did not get full releases, just OTAs).
These threads suggest it's possible to flash a stock ROM to fix a corrupt mdtp partition...

Mdtp flashes returned your device to an state where partitions are readable again otherwise you won´t enter not even to recovery.
You don´t have to try to flash recovery (nor stock or custom), only reboot to a custom recovery like TWRP, the process to do it is well explained there, I also faced an mdtp issue and I didn´t need to flash the whole rom, just booted to TWRP and from there I did what I wanted, but if you yet want to do it.......
First of all I´m not familiar with Debian coming to modding smartphones, just I use it within other distros for other purposes.
The tool that you linked is not useful for us, this tool works mainly to fool recovery to accept modded scripts as original/signed and our device although it has a recovery image doesn´t have a dedicated partition and it simply is not available for the normal user, it´s mean that this tool uses MiRecovery present on all the devices running Miui out of the box but not for the others running Android One.
If you can access to a Windows machine this is the tool that I frequently use: https://xiaomifirmware.com/downloads/miflashpro/ but if you only can access to a PC with Debian probably this tool works for you https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/tool-miflash-linux-t3708847

You can't throw a .tgz or .zip at fastboot?!
If you're going to flash a stock ROM, extract it and run a flash_XXX script. It will use your fastboot to flash every partition. Variants preserve data or relock bootloader.
if fastboot fails (data transfer failure (too many links))
-> use a different USB port which is not a charging port.
-> try a different USB cable

Android 11 GSI

Has anyone tried to flash it? I remember there being an issue with the layout of our partitions and what not. Just thought I'd ask because it's pretty nice on my pixel 3.

Oh that is weird, I've never seen that before.

I just tried flashing system and vbmeta and also did fastboot -w, but its showing android logo at boot screen, and animation is a bootloop. Luckily adb devices shows my phone, but unauthorized

Not really in crashdump mode, but for me it was on bootloop at Android logo screen
i have the same issue i believe we need an updated version of vbmeta and a custom boot.img because i have been able to get it to boot but as previously stated before it just bootloops on the android screen
how did you flash the android 11 gsi and the vbmeta?
i flashed it via fastboot commands
I tried several times and still trying . with system.img and vbmeta.img from google stuck at boot screen (Android logo waiting on screen) . Other custom builds (like erfangsi) is giving qualcomm crash dump without google vbmeta . No lack to boot until now . BUt there are some successful boot videos on internet with especially xiaomi phones . I don't know it is real or not . As far as I know op7t %100 of treble compatible phone and it should work .

I don't mean to ask a obvious question that I'm sure you did after you flashed but did you try flashing then booting into recovery and wiping caches and reboot? Prob won't work but worth a try
