Question How do I flash a recovery rom without a custom recovery?

Hi y'all
I know that fastboot roms can easily be flashed with the miflash tool but recovery roms can only be flashed with twrp or another custom recovery. So how do I flash a recovery rom for the pad 5 when there's no custom recovery? I wanted to test out the MIUI 13 beta but I can't install it via miflash or the system updater since I'm on global rom and not china rom.

Anybody ask for GSI

I take the time to provide a useful link for someone who is too busy to search for themselves and get an aggressive sarcastic reply. C'est la vie.

When you flash the stock ROM with miflash tool, the stock recovery will also be flashed. There are tools that can extract or dump the recovery.img file from fastboot ROMs but I don't know if there is one for Xiaomi.

I asked around and was told it's not possible to flash an internal rom without a custom recovery.

So here's a MIUI 13 Chinese Stable Fastboot ROM:
https://bigota.d.miui.com/V13.0.3.0.RKXCNXM/nabu_images_V13.0.3.0.RKXCNXM_20211228.0000.00_11.0_cn_1d92f2dc98.tgz
Any idea how to flash this?
I installed the latest adb/fastboot packages from google, unlocked my Mi pad, booted into fastboot and then used the flash_all.bat file from the fastboot zip which runs through completely until I get a bootloop on MIUI logo.

You can flash this with the official Mi flash Tool. You must extract the tgz File to folder. Then flash with the Tool and then have fun.

first you have to check what's inside recovery ROM, if it's a payload.bin you have to extract it. if system_new.dat you have to convert it to spare image (tool available on forum) if you have all the images you can use this tool https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/script-auto-fastboot-flash-all-for-any-device.4467687/

Already installed. You have to install this modulo and download the rom version of the beta. Install it manually throw the three dot in the update miui window and upgrade to the closed beta. I already tried it but i think at the moment the china 11 is better

There are threads here with custom recoveries for Lisa - please take a look and find/read.
Hint, SHRP or Fox - but they work fine with A11 (MIUI 12.5)
There is no custom recovery that works properly with A11 (hence with MIUI 13 as on your screenshot).
This is generally a known situation - you can go to TWRP.me and find what they say about support for A12 (all other custom recoveries take essentials from TWRP and mainly repack to different UI, add some UI features and so)
To unbrick, flash the stock recovery (hopefully, you will not need to use MiFlash to flash the whole stock firmware)
Generally be careful, do not install custom recovery, ROM, etc for Renoir to Lisa. Phones are 'similar' but they have different chipsets

There are two different models (different chipsets)
- Mi 11 Lite 5G NE (Lisa)
- Mi 11 Lite 5G (Renoir)
But there is no Mi 11 Lite 5G (Lisa) - hence please make sure which model you really have.
Btw, if you flash a firmware for the wrong model, you will brick your phone

When you read the instructions on Xiaomi eu, you will see that for Lisa you have to use a particular Orange Fox custom recovery (not TWRP):
OrangeFox-R11.1_2-Unofficial-lisa.img
There is actually a dedicated thread right here, on XDA, Lisa subforum, for that Orange Fox
It properly decrypts A12 storage and it is NECESSARY to be able Xiaomi.eu recovery type either Stable or Weekly for Lisa
But again, sorry, please take a time and start reading/learning there. You will see there that you have to start by unlocking your Bootloader

I do have Lisa, I've been on Xiaomi.eu Stable and later I switched to Weeklies.
Lisa, rooted with Magisk is my daily driver, with dual SIM, work and private apps

Yes you are right
Are the procedures for installing ROM in Orangefox similar to TWRP ?
In future can i change Orangefox to TWRP ?

In short, you will have to:
- unlock Bootloader (nothing custom could be flashed with the locked BL)
- Temporarily (one-time) boot to Orange Fox:
fastboot boot <OF IMG>
- It will boot to Orange Fox (OF), you have to type-in your Android screen unlock pin (needed to decrypt your storage)
- Navigate to the downloaded Xiaomi.eu Stable or Weekly ZIP (must be recovery type - all Weeklies for Lisa are, and only the latest Stable for Lisa is) and flash it
- Then you have to Format Data (Wiping is not enough), from OF (without, you'll have a bootloop) and then reboot to Xiaomi.eu
- Xiaomi.eu will (as part of its own installation) permanently flash Orange Fox, and in future it's upgrades will go like OTA (by use of the OF) and you will further no more need to Format Data (unless you decide to switch to a different ROM, like back to stock, switch between Stable and Weekly, etc)
Furthermore:
- Orange Fox, Sky Hawk Recovery Project and other custom recoveries (forks of TWRP) all use TWRP backend, just try to make more modern and better user-friendly UI.
If you are familiar with TWRP, you will need few minutes to investigate what new and different you see in OF or SHRP
- Official TWRP.me does not support A12 yet (does not support generally and they say that on their main page, not just particularly for Lisa), and for Lisa I don't know for any other (or better to say better) custom recovery than that OF - I tried couple of them
---
Btw, it is also not official OF for Lisa (official OF does not support A12 decryption since official TWRP does not yet either), but believe me, that OF, wherever it comes from (4pda) is good - and your only reliable choice for Lisa with the MIUI 13/A12 (even if you stay on stock MIUI but want to have 'TWRP')
Btw, there are Chinese unofficial SKKK TWRP builds for a couple of other Xiaomi devices that do support A12 (and they are needed for those Xiaomi devices when installimg Xiaomi.eu recovery type ROMs), but SKKK guys did not develop TWRP for Lisa
Btw, for Renoir (Mi 11 Lite 5G but without NE in the name), there is not known any working custom recovery for MIUI 13/A12, hence Xiaomi.eu ROMs for Renoir are all Fastboot types (they have to be unzipped and flashed from PC by using the batch scripts found in the unzipped archive)
Recovery type Xiaomi.eu ROMs do not have those bat (or alternatively sh scripts for Linux PC) and can only be flashed through the appropriate custom recoveries (those SKKK TWRPs for most devices, and OF for our Lisa)
Fastboot type Xiaomi.eu ROMs can be recognized by having the word fastboot in their long zip file name
Posts #1 in the Xiaomi.eu Forum (Stable thread and Weeklies threads) contain a table where the first column lists supported Xiaomi models and the last columb says if the ROM is Fastboot or Recovery type

Never heard of that problem. For Xiaomi.e, that is the custom recovery they flash in, nobody reported like that
You could ask in the OF thread, here on XDA, under Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE - but make sure you are on that phone (Lisa), not Renoir (without LE in the name)

I had to take the long way around lol. I was on PixelOS so that was causing the problem. I resolved it by installing the fastboot rom then flash orangefox and then flash the recovery rom . I'm on Lisa for sure

MIUI 13 arrives

This morning MIUI 13 arrived, Redmi Note 9 with NFC. It reached me and other users.

same, worried about shrp compatibility, as it is still stuck on twrp 3.5.1

Can we flash it with twrp ?

If you're TWRP support s vendor, yes

Question Xiaomi EU to Official Miui

I am currently running Xiaomi Eu version 13.0.9 stable with twrp 3.6.2_12-pocof3_v6.3_a12.
I have issues with this build and I noticed lots of reports with latest Xiaomi EU updates having many bugs so don't really want to update.
Can I switch without data loss to official Miui? (my bank is annoying dont want to go through hassle of phoning them to re setup)
thanks in advance

Only if you flash the same version or higher.

I just ran the latest weekly and it works like a charm , your twrp should be 3.7 skkkk and you can install miui 14 recovery global through twrp but I would suggest a format and not a dirty flash since your going from a china rom to a global have funnnn!

There are 2 TWRP(SKK):
1/twrp-3.7.0_12-v7.2_A12-alioth
2/twrp-3.7.0_12-v7.2_A13-alioth
His system is currently in A12, he can continue with version 3.6.2 12 or update it to 3.7.A12 and flash an A13 recovery rom.
Or use Miflash *** and lock the bootloader, which will avoid rooting + magisk to have the playstore certified.
***Erases your data and only if not K40.

Won't re-lock and you will need to install TWRP A13 after flash.

I'd reckon you try a fresh install on Xiaomi.EU's latest rom first before flashing to the Global version.
Most bugs and glitches are fixed with a fresh install of Xiaomi.EU.
By fresh install I mean use XiaoMiFlash (Fastboot) to the latest official China stable rom (14.0.5.0), then wipe all via TWRP and then Fastboot flash the latest Xiaomi.EU rom (14.0.5.0).
For me; Global rom is too bloat, has too many features missing and less smooth versus Xiaomi.EU's rom.

Not much use since for a first installation you must format the data with the Twrp or use the first install.bat script included in the folder extracted from the zip.

Right, my bad. Clean install is the way to go though, Devs at Xiaomi.EU always recommended this to me versus dirty flash.
I clean flash with every major update, except from 12 to 12.5 (no Android change) with Xiaomi.EU's roms.

Yep, for the change of Miui or Android version, it is preferable to do a clean flash or mandatory in the event of a downgrade (weekly to stable).
