nice to see another development, let me test. Thanks
2 question :
- can you make statusbar under notch so we can see the time
- if I have TWRP Backups should I move to folder PBRP and then restore?

Sorry for statusbar i'm not able to hide notch....
For backups, i've not tested a restore, but you should move yours to PBRP folder and then you can try to restore.

Finally, a MI 8 recovery with OTA survival.
Big ups!
(Bootloader locked so can't test it....gotta wait a month)

Last build twrp 3.2.3 is 1208.
What build in a pitchblack?

Great to see a custom recovery for Mi8.
Thanks man

Seems great! Can someone explain what "No need to worry about ARB" means ?

Could you give a bit more of info about this?
It just checks ARB and doesn't let you install if it is below the current ARB number?

Sorry i'm not the developer of this recovery, i've just done a simple porting to MI 8 Dipper.
Btw, this is the developer's changelog:
Code:
Info
PitchBlack v2.9.0
Based on TWRP 3.2.3
Update Log :
- Initial NON-ARB (Support update and downgrade miui rom ARB 4 ARB 3, ARB 3 ARB 4. Without delete firmware, baseband and etc-update the follow firmware)
- AutoReboot Fixed
- Update DM Verity Logic
- Update fstab flags
- Update magisk
- Update unroot magisk
- Update noverity
- Etc
and this it the option to enable to avoid ARB:
Btw i've not tested this, because my MI 8 dosn't have ARB (i've always been on xiaomi.eu or Custom rom, never on official MIUI).

This feture is not tested on MI 8 and is not clear how to use or what it does, so atm i've removed the ARB related features from OP (could be dangerous to use this untested features to roll back from Pie to Oreo)

Thanks for clarifying. It would be great to have a tool that prevents us from flashing files with lower arb counter in the future, just to avoid all the bricks.

should I enable "Support MIUI Incremental OTA" ? because now I enable it and flash EU ROM 8.12.27 working fine.
or I just disable it like default setting?

Backup and restore
Read this post for detailed advice. Do not try to backup/restore anything without first reading it.
Incremental MIUI OTA:
Due to recent changes in stock MIUI, you must not disable DM-Verity when flashing a stock MIUI ROM that is based on either Android Pie, or Android 10 (the relevant option in OrangeFox is now unticked by default). If you disable DM-Verity, incremental MIUI OTA updates will definitely not work.

Should be fine.

I have Orangefox R10.0-3, and I cannot install R10.0-4 or the new beta R10.1. I tried both flashing from bootloader with fastboot commands (recovery.img) and installing the R10.1 beta zip from Orangefox R10.0-3. Phone won't boot to recovery and will just reboot to android. I have install.log but have less than 10 posts and have no idea how to attach files. I'll PM you with the log.

The log that you sent to me by PM looks perfectly fine, and everything should work.
Judging from what you said in the other thread where you first explained your problems, I think that something is seriously broken in your device. It may be that your bootloader has been modified by something you flashed before. In the previous thread, you describe the current situation. But what you have not told us is exactly how you got here in the first place. Without that information, one can only speculate. And my speculation is that the recoveries (whether flashed in fastboot or recovery mode) install correctly. However, something in the modified bootloader is ignoring them (or perhaps your partition sizes are borked). If this speculation is correct, then I think you might have to flash a full fastboot MIUI ROM (of whatever ROM came with the phone in the first place) and let it wipe everything (just don't accidentally lock your bootloader again). This should reset the partitions and also replace the recovery partition with stock MIUI recovery. Then you can start all over again by flashing an OrangeFox img with fastboot.
But unless you can retrace all your steps to identify what you originally flashed that started all these problems (and avoid it in the future) you might well end up in the same situation again.

I bought this phone second hand, it already had bootloader unlocked and came with TWRP wzsx150 installed. It had MIUI 11 global, not sure the exact version (11.0.1, 11.0.2...) but it was android 9, and the same day I got it I installed the latest xiaomi.eu beta rom on it, before trying to install other custom roms or installing another recovery.
I already tried flashing full fastboot MIUI Global rom using fastboot with MiFlash software, tried two versions: 11.0.6.0 and 10.1.2.0. When doing that the same happens, MIUI works correctly and I can install xiaomi.eu roms but not any other custom rom and only a reduced number of recovery versions.
Is there anything more I should check? like partition format or partition size? should I format all partitions?
I used MiFlash 20180528, not the latest version, don't know if this could affect the flashing process...

Flashing a full fastboot ROM with the Mi Flash tool should have sorted out any problems. That is normally a last resort, and it should work. If it didn't work, then I am out of ideas. This might well be some sort of ARB issue - but I have no experience at all with ARB, so I can't tell. Perhaps it was already broken before it was sold to you. Who knows?
I know of no reason why the device should be happy with some recoveries, and not with others. There is no logic to it, that I can see.
Unfortunately, this discussion is now off-topic, as this is not a recovery issue (I thought it might have been - but it is obvious that it isn't). I guess you might have to cut your losses and stick with whatever recoveries and ROMs work with your device - and perhaps return to wzsx150 and the most recent MIUI Global (which would avoid ARD issues). Good luck!

I flashed the last stable version and it works flawlessly. I love that it flashes dfe automatically.
However, I don't know If I can use my old backups made by the twrp i was using, can I?
Thanks you!

You can always try - but I wouldn't hold out much hope. It all depends on whether the partition tables are compatible. Also, OrangeFox expects its backups to be in /Fox/BACKUPS/ whereas twrp looks somewhere else - so there has to be some renamings of directories if OrangeFox is to be able to locate the backups.

Is it planned to have a release devoted to Curtana.
Thanks
EDIT:
I've just tested it on Curtana in order to test file copy/modify in system via file explorer.
Unsuccessful trial. System is still kept at read only state.
Anyway a real nice interface design. Thanks to devs.

It is working from what I can do on a Curtana. It cann't install because digest is not in accordance but should be working well on Joyeuse and at any point better than LR modded fix release available at T.me.
Just boot it on your phone and try it like that.

Recoveries struggle to get stable on this device/system it seems (what is the status of PBRP: alpha, beta, stable?). I saw something about a Android 10 Boot Partition causing the problems but would like to understand better if and how Recovery will work nicely with this device and Custom ROMs. Can someone point me to a explanation/thread why on RN9P, Android 10 it is so difficult to get a working Recovery for Custom ROM Install/Updates?

hello,
bravo for this excellent work, since the time we hoped functional custom recovery. Are all backup and restore functions functional, micro sd recognition, etc? ... Thank you

the right commend for Flash the recovery.img is "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
second, i get decrypt data after i reboot to recovery.

I have curtana twrp on joyeuse phone. Can ı flash via curtana twrp?
Edit 1: I tried install via curtana twrp. Error 1 fail...

Anybody try to flash latest Redmi Note 9 Pro EU ROM (v11.0.5.0) with this recovery? I tried dirty flash it from 11.0.4 and got error message. After flashing, It stay and boot on 11.0.4 but lost wifi mac address.

I've tried too but the same result.
"Fixed it" with fastboot first time installation of v11.0.4 and will wait for fastboot package v11.0.5.

After flashing recovery, and entering to PBRP is asking for password for decrypt data, i do not have password, my phone is not encrypted

Are you referring to the xiaomi.eu rom v11.0.5? If so, there's alot of people reporting problems booting after flashing that version. You're probably not referring to the stock rom, as I don't think there are any recovery flashable zips for that available.
In regard to fixing your wifi problem, in reading through the GSI rom thread, there are many reports of wifi being lost after flashing the boot.img from a different version of the stock rom than that which users were originally on without updating the other partitions. If the v11.0.5 boot.img was flashed to your phone, but some other partitions failed to flash, that may explain things. You could try downloading/extracting the v11.0.4 boot.img, either from the stock or xiaomi.eu rom package depending on which you are using, and flashing that again from fastboot using "fastboot flash boot boot.img".
Otherwise if that fails, reflashing v11.0.4 in its entirety should hopefully get your wifi working again.

You'll have to use the password/pass number you used to unlocked your device when waking it up.

Team Win Recovery Project 3.x, or twrp3 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. It's a full touch driven user interface no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.
TWRP built for the Nokia 8. It should work fine, but using it is a try at your own risk procedure. Your bootloader must be unlocked to use this recovery. Fastboot mode is used to flash or boot this recovery.
Installation
If you are installing TWRP for the first time, then you need to flash it from fastboot:
Code:
fastboot flash:raw boot <twrp.img>
Otherwise you can install the latest release by flashing the appropriate .zip file

Treble, and ota updates? Enlighten me here.
Back to stock, that's a huge fix. But oh, we can't install it on stock. So... What's going on?!

By OTA updates I mean my crDroid releases. In the past, flashing the .zip from TWRP would fail at step 2. Now you do not have to wipe data and reflash T-Virus every time you need to update to any new crDroid release

Yes it is. I just need to replace the kernel with a non-treble one and remove the vendor partition references. But why would you need a stock version anyway? There are no custom ROMs for stock to flash

There are ota updates for stock official ROM. Many people have let's say 488b and want to stick to latest version of oreo. TWRP 3.3.1 can't do that, and fails at stage 2 of flashing offline ota.
Btw, this new xda is God fast... Kisses to the Prophets!

Stock TWRP has this issue too. It is caused by listing non-existant partitions in gpt-utils https://github.com/resident-nokia/t...d3df561fb6/recovery/gpt-utils/gpt-utils.h#L82 When installing an OTA TWRP tries to switch slot but it fails because it is not possible to switch slot on a partition that does not exist. This issue was fixed by this commit https://github.com/GPUCode/android_...mmit/179c5de56987455ca10e424ab1eaa00dd882228d and now it lists all the correct partitions and TWRP no longer fails when installing updates. I agree, XDA feels more like modern website rather than a 2005 forum

Is this issue fixed in TWRP 3.3.1 too (which is used for stock firmwares)? That was my question. 'cause the last (recent) time I used it, no such change was apparent. Also, restoring bku was impossible, although I'm not sure about it.
The change here, paves the way of using Q on our lady.

New build is up! Download from here: https://github.com/resident-nokia/android_device_nokia_A1N-TWRP/releases/tag/v3.5.2
Updated TWRP to version 3.5.2
Up-to-date umbrella kernel
Updated decryption blobs to Q
Use common FBE TWRP decryption strategy (should fix most issues with decryption)

Official TWRP 3.5.0_9 works fine with official LOS.
I didn't get the point on this release yet, TWRP says their _10 versions are for devices released with Android 10, so _9 is correct for the good old Mi 8...

Spot the difference. I'm on Android 10 as well of course, soon on Android 11 and the official TWRP _09 branch supports this. Could you please explain the benefits of your unofficial version? I'd like to understand the facts before considering a test.

Tried to compile it on my own with your device Tree.
Got Error

Did you ever figure this out? I'm getting the same error trying to build official TWRP for the mi 8 Pro.
EDIT: Turns out you can get around the error by removing the line: "TARGET_HW_DISK_ENCRYPTION := true" from your BoardConfig.mk but I'm not sure if it will be able to decrypt.

Hi, all day trying to flash TRWP. I want to switch from miui.eu to lineageos, so I wipe data and then try to flash LOS. Nothing work and I decided to upgrade TWRP from FASTBOOT.

After that black screen for a few seconds and the it boot normally to MIUI and MI Recovery 3.0 still there. Dont know what to do or combination to use
