You guys need to disable dm-varity for preventing bootloop. As well as don't try to flash on locked bootloader. I will update recovery as soon as my exam finished.

Thanks :)
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] domi.nos:
There are two things, that would like to mention. Firstly, I couldn't have installed xiaomi.eu rom using this recovery. It gave a random reboot while installation.

Also, second thing is, there is something is wrong in installation process. I mean, what I did:

- install dev rom from miui.com

- successful unlock of bootloader

- install twrp via fastboot:

- fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

- fastboot reboot

After that, I did not have twrp. I had to manually reboot to bootloader, and then click recovery for it to work. Very strange, yet I tried so many times.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] igortski:
After "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" do "fastboot boot twrp.img"

[Xiaomi Redmi 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] pandalaut:
hi, firstly thanks OP for your work.

i've got a problem though.

I've flashed the recovery, and booted into it. it succeeded.

I then made a backup of my ROM and left my phone. I dunno what happened but when I came back the phone is already on the homescreen.

I checked the backup file and it's there already.

Problem is, I cannot boot into recovery anymore, it just shows the phone+cable image.

I've checked that I already disabled verity even before flashing the twrp, and have adb root access.

my device is running stock 6.3.25.

where should I look for the error?

----

edit: solved after reflashing the twrp again

still, I dunno why it disappeared the first time I flashed it.

any help would be appreciated.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] topp10:
Hi,

My situation appears to be the same as yours.

I started a backup but the phone rebooted shortly after and TWRP was gone.

Apologies for the stupid question but how do I execute or check the disable verity code (I received an error when I tried)?

I assumed that I simply connect the phone as normal (i.e. not fastboot) and execute adb command as given in post #2?

I don't want to try flashing a ROM file if I'm going to end up in a bootloop!

Thanks in advance.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] pandalaut:
what error? if the error is related to root access, refer to usblaidas' post #19

if the adb just gives you help screen when you enter 'adb disable-verity' then you need to update your adb. (seriously, i got this kind of problem bcs i was using adb from miflash)

goodluck :good:

----

your post made me wonder, will the recovery disappear if I make another backup? hmm

hi again.

I've tried creating a new backup and the process stopped at 23% before the phone reboots itself.

but this time the twrp is still there when I reboot into recovery.

is there anything I could provide to help you diagnose where the error is?

[Xiaomi Redmi 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] FcukBloat:
Dear [MENTION=6083514]Anik_khan[/MENTION] one suggestion about your twrp, which is great. I'm using it with stock miui right now (waiting for fingerprint support before switching to cm) and the fact that backups are stored in a subfolder named as the phone's serial number is a little problematic. In fact with stock miui, according to which rom you are on (stable, developer etc) the ser/n does change, don't ask me why! For this reason, sometimes i can't restore backups before moving the backup files to a different folder that matches the phone ser/n in that moment /running rom.

Could you make your twrp to name the backup subfolder not like the phone's ser/n, but for example simply "ido"? This way backups could be always restored flawlessly!!

Tia and in any case, and thanks again for your work :o

[Xiaomi Redmi 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] chal61:
Very long day today...

0. I had the stable Rom and wanted to experiment and unlock my phone, so I had to:

1. flash the latest developer beta (ido_xhdpi_global_images_6.9.22_20160805.0000.29_5.1_global_5e5f4a61ed) using MiFlash

2. I have unlocked my Redmi 3 pro

3. installed latest twrp in this thread (and yes, if I don't reboot in recovery, I lose TWRP)

4. rebooted in TWRP and made a nandroid backup of the system (that takes forever to finish...)

5. didn't install superSU before rebooting

6. After reboot I got a bootloop!

adb root is not working and says "adb cannot run as root in production builds", but I'm running a dev build afaik (6.9.22 beta)!

Flashing again the ROM at point 1 (flash all except data and storage) I can boot again in MIUI, but I lose again TWRP...

I can't understand why I got the bootloop, any hint?

OK, problem solved.

Must update boot.img of the rom at point 1 using the "Android Image kitchen". After that TWRP remains after reboot.

Now I have to see if the backup works, because in the previous attempts files weren't saved in SD Card...

Thanks in advance

Also are they IDO as well?
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] jokerpappu:
redmi 3 and 3 prime are both known as ido. redmi 1s is know as land so this should work on redmi 3 prime but it wont work on redmi 3s as they have totally different SOC.

---------- Post added at 01:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:42 PM ----------

looks like you did not do system read only when you first entered recovery.instead you did let the system be written or something like that by directly sliding without ticking the system read only thats why you got into bootloop
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] vdbhb59:
Okay, lemme ask you this, I believe my question was nor framed correctly.

I have Redmi 3S and Redmi 3S Prime.

Which TWRP do I use for them?

I need to root them and need to have Custom ROM on them.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] card-us:
both Redmi 3S & 3S Prime/Pro are different than Redmi 3/Pro, so it won't do if you flash TWRP from this thread (you should read the thread tittle) it say Redmi3 (Incl 3Pro) but not 3S variant

Edit: there's a threads on XDA twrp for 3S variant, (sorry didn't read it full before)

Redmi 3/Pro use Snapdragon 616, while 3S/Prime use Snapdragon 450 (it's different chipset)

a question though, if i'm updating to newer TWRP (Official) from cofface version, will it work (currently mine is Redmi 3 with TWRP 3.0.2.0 Cofface)

thanks before
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] vdbhb59:
Agreed, and hence I say again, that the reason why I am asking for Redmi 3S and Redmi 3S Prime/Pro here is, cause I located no other tag/post/thread anywhere, and the SCO is different though, I just want to know.

Odd that there is no TWRP for it yet. I mean recovery.

BTW, I do read all bits and pieces before taking any step. :D I did read the subject/title.

No worries I will have a look at the call tree for TWRP and see if I can make one for R3S and R3SP/P.

Thanks again :)
