Flashed recovery - TWRP/Orange Fox - won't boot up after installation - Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers

Hello there,
I have bought a Redmi Note 8 Pro in Europe. My goal is to get a custom rom on it up and running.
The bootloader is successfully unlocked, and I tried to flash TWRP and Orange Fox recovery. To do so I followed the instructions on the TWRP home page to the letter, namely flashing vbmeta.img (fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img) first and then the recovery image (
Sadly the TWRP and Orange Fox recovery never starts; the system just seems to be stuck in a boot loop for recovery, until I power it off and start it in a way that the stock ROM provided on it re-installs itself.
I have tried so far all suggestions I was able to find in this forum, but sadly no result.
What might I still do in order to get a recovery finally up and running on this device?
Thanks in advance!

Are your flash sequence vbmeta>TWRP>reboot?
Try to flash vbmeta once more.
Also, for recovery, choose one of it.

Phone can boot into fastboot, and system but wont go into recovery

Hi guys i flashed the 3.5.3 CM today but i decided to go back with 3.26 again, so i followed a guide that tells me to install stock recovery over twrp before i install the rom but after i fastboot flash the recovery i cannot go into the recovery anymore.
i tried to flashed the modified twrp and then boot to recovery but still wont open it.
the phone works and can go into fastboot still but it just wont access recovery
anyway to fix it? sorry if this has been discussed before. im on a mac for more info
TIA

Is your OS booting?
yea
Got the same problem here. Can boot into system and fastboot but if boot to recovery i get the oneplus logo and the bootloaderscreen and then i get a black screen where i should get my recovery. And if wanna Force shutdown my oneplus it freezes somehow. I tried everything to fix this with no result. Stock recovery doesnt work too.
Hi I just had the same problem, I have sent it back to Oneplus for repair. According to the ticket, I had a faulty motherboard, which has been replaced. If you can, do it. I only had to wait for a week before it was sent back.
Had the same problem last night. Following method nr 2 in thos thread solved it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3405700
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using XDA-Developers mobile app
using fastboot to wipe the recovery partition then fastboot flashing modified twrp twice worked for me, i think the oneplus recovery image thats doing the rounds doesn't want to play nice lol
If youre phone boots in to system, download Flashify from play, flash recovery.img (you need to extract .img file). Go to recovery to check if it works. If not try other recovery.
after flashing the community build i cant boot my device in fastboot mode, it wont start the recovery or boot the system sucessfully.

If your device is unlocked, flash the recovery.img from fastboot.
You can download TWRP for oneplus 3 from their site.
Rename the downloaded recovery to recovery.img.
And open fastboot in the path of the recovery image.
Use the command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Hopefully this helps

managed to fix it the other day, by flashing the modded twrp.. somehow that one worked after that i flashed the 3.26 plus the 3.26 modem ones because if i didnt, my touch screen wont work...
For me, I flashed the twrp from fastboot.
But still the 1+ logo shows when I try to boot in to recovery for 5 sec and shuts down with 2 dots of lights in the navigation button area
The normal boot is working fine. Did flash the recovery using apps like TWRP Manager, Flashify etc. It will show successfulll. But when I try to boot in to recovery, same result.
Please help

TWRP - What am I doing wrong?

Hey guys and gals,
Silly question.
For a few months now, I've had TWRP 3.1.0 RC2 installed and no matter what I do, I absolutely cannot reboot into recovery. If I choose reboot to recovery while the phone is running, it results in a ramdump and eventually boots to system. If I reboot into the bootloader and choose to boot into recovery mode from there, it just boots to system. It's incredibly annoying. Literally the only time I can get into recovery is when I connect my phone to a computer and fastboot boot into a temporary TWRP Img and install TWRP again. Once I boot into system, I can never boot into recovery again. This is extremely inconvenient on the go, like right now, because I want to flash V4A before I start playing music from my Bluetooth speaker. Guess I'll just listen to low quality music :'(
What am I doing wrong? This is stupid.

I had the same problem, then I got a twrp boot loop, ended up having to boot into slot b and reflash stock img through adb, beware...
I was JUST about to post this! Exact same problem to the tee (except using RC1)! Hopefully someone smarter can chime in lol

Anyone got some insight to this? Can't be that uncommon of a problem...
Try starting the process again.
Boot to bootloader
Fastboot boot 3.0.2 rc1
In twrp flash 3.1.0 r 2
Reboot recovery and check if it works

I never had TWRP stick unless I added another step to your instructions --boot completely into the rom once, go back into the bootloader, open temp TWRP and flash the TWRP zip again. If I didn't do this my recovery would always revert to stock but, strangely, even though I was running a custom rom the combination of the custom rom and stock recovery never bootlooped my phone and I was able to boot from the stock recovery to the custom rom with no problems. The only reason not being able to boot into TWRP was even an issue was that you can't flash any zips in recovery without it. Otherwise the phone ran so perfectly I didn't even realize at first that TWRP wasn't still the installed recovery.
Get the stock boot.img (this will remove root/kernel/twrp)
Boot into the bootloader
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot --set-active=a or b (switch to the inactive slot)
Fastboot reboot bootloader
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot --set-active=a or b (reload previous slot)
Fastboot reboot bootloader
Fastboot BOOT twrp.img
Flash TWRP in twrp..
If you can do that I would be interested in your results.
Also pointing out flashing rooms and certain zips here in the forums WILL revert you back to a stock recovery. Just my last bit of helpful information, hope someone gets it figured out, flashing is already a chore for those of us who like to experiment.

I was able to boot into recovery after doing this. Got a bootloop booting into system though, but flashing the ROM (and TWRP) fixed it.
Hello,
Try booting to TWRP 3.0.2 RC1 then flash TWRP 3.0.2 RC1 + SR1-SU v2.82SR1 + SU Pixel Fix (from Chains beta thread) one right after the other in the same TWRP session then reboot. Should fix your issue, give you recovery+root without ram dump.
Cheers
Everytime you flash a rom you need to flash twrp before rebooting or you'll lose twrp recovery.
Unfortunately I've had to get my Pixel XL replaced due to a defect and received a Verizon edition XL running 7.1.1. This is what I get for buying it from Best Buy Therefore I cannot unlock the bootloader and this problem no longer applies to me.
I'll keep this thread open for a bit in case it's useful for anyone else. I'll just sit here in all of my Stock-ness.
I couldn't get this to work. Tried flashing stock boot.img, then booting off of the TWRP images but I keep getting TWRP boot loop. Any suggestions? Tried flashing the entire stock image as well and no dice...

Redmi Note 5 Bootloop & Can't boot Recovery

Hello, need your help guys.
So my Whyred bootlooping now. What I did previously was wiping System, Cache, Dalvik & Data before flashing custom ROM -- I know, this shouldn't be an issue. But since I can do fastboot, I tried to flashes recovery. I tried a few (TWRP, RedWolf & Batik), for each the steps were all the same: Via fastboot flash the dummy image to manipulate ARB check, then flash Recovery and finish with boot into recovery.
The phone booting into recovery, I can see the screen of recoveries for few second, then phone bootlooping again.
What should I do?
And for additional information, my phone was unlocked bootloader -- it still unlocked because I can see the Unlocked sign on bootloop screen. I also tried to flash official MIUI rom via fastboot (whyred_global_images_V10.0.6.0.OEIMIFH_20181127) but it was failed because anti roll back -- I also don't understand this because the ARB was supposed not allowing me to downgrade, but why is it also not allowing me to flash the latest ROM too?
I am now stucked in bootloop -- still can do fastbooting, but really have no idea how to flash any rom and get into the system. Really need help help help please
Try this:
Code:
fastboot boot recoveryname.img
like fastboot boot RedWolf.img

Done this several times, but I didn't use hard buttons, instead i used fastboot boot recovery.img command to reboot to recovery after flashing recovery. I also tried rebooting to recovery from twrp without problem, but after rebooted to system, twrp reverted to stock recovery, everytime.
I didn't have this problem with MIUI 10.3.1.0 with the same TWRP.
edit : I'm using TWRP 0330 btw, and somehow there was no swipe to allow modification confirmation when the phone rebooted to twrp for the 1st time after flashing twrp.
Wonder why.

Tks, but I don't have problem with TWRP 0330, it works fine, including touch screen, the problem is TWRP get replaced by Stock Recovery everytime I boot my my phone to system.
I don't want to root my phone, just like to have TWRP recovery around so I can use it to flash hosts file for ads blocking and some other things.
Someone told me i need to flash lazyflasher...I'm going to do it later ..

No. don´t try to boot to recovery from fastboot after to flash it, don´t flash it through fastboot.
Do the next three steps and see what happens but do it exactly the same or won´t worth the try:
- In fastboot delete recovery partition by typing fastboot erase recovery
- Then reboot to recovery (don´t flash it yet) by typing fastboot boot twrp.img (rename recovery image firstly to twrp)
- Now once in TWRP flash the zip or image to the recovery partition, when you finish go to Reboot options within TWRP and choose recovery to boot to it before to boot up to system. If you boot at this instance to TWRP then the issue have to be solved, reboot normally to system.
Edit: If this way the problem is not solved then after to install TWRP flash Magisk that can prevent it to be overwritten.

OP7T ROM Installing Partition Error

After trying to install a custom ROM (PixelExperience for OnePlus 7T [hotdogb]) via fastboot, the installation flashing ended with errors with "no such partition" for odm, product and system I tried everything to get out of the fastboot screen loop. After finding a bat file with IMG files which got me on the Android 11 Beta 1. build (still no WiFi)
What can I do to fix the partition error to get on the Pixel Experience ROM or even get back to the stable build - I did try MSM but it isn't listing the phone even after pressing ENUM.
Please help...
Context (can skip): The latest stable build OOS for my 7T had issues with the microphone not working and so I decided to do a factory reset which resulted in having a clean install but now, WiFi doesn't connect for some reason. After trying some fixes I decided to install a custom ROM.
U need to flash stock recovery (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img) as twrp prevents fastbootD entry. Then type fastboot reboot fastboot to enter fastbootD. Then flash your rom. Personally, I just flash roms via Chinese twrp or 3.5.10 twrp

that was my process for the first try - entered fastbootD for the flashing process which ended with the mentioned partition error and the fastboot loop. I realised that TWRP version I got from TOOL ALL IN ONE wasn't going to work as it couldn't access data no matter what.
No twrp can decrypt oos or a11 custom roms data. Chinese twrp can access data only on a10 custom roms if u remove screen lock before booting into twrp for backup
What do you reckon I try this time then?
