If you bootlooped after flashing - lock botloader. You can unlock it again when ROM is starting.

This is Displax`s tutorial:

"So, OK. A few explanations about the installation of this "handmade" ROMs...

https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...K91LE6X1Xs7CWL

As I mentioned here:

"F" - for Fastboot.

"T" - for TWRP.

Installation

TWRP:

1. Temporary boot actual TWRP image or boot up to the already installed TWRP.

2. Download and copy "T" ROM to device.

3. Flash it. It is flashed to both slots (A+B).

Fastboot:

1. Download "F" ROM and unzip it to the any place on PC.

2. Download actual version of Platform Tools utils (adb/fastboot): https://dl.google.com/android/reposi...st-windows.zip

3. Unzip the contents of folder in zip to the ROM folder. Or just this files (full pack):

adb.exe

AdbWinApi.dll

AdbWinUsbApi.dll

fastboot.exe

libwinpthread-1.dll

make_f2fs.exe

mke2fs.conf

mke2fs.exe

4. Run "flash_all.bat" for flash with no wipe or "flash_all_clean.bat" for flash with wipe.

It is flashed to both slots (A+B).

Note:

Ignore error "Invalid sparse file format at header magic". Just wait. "

I would add steps under 3:

- boot phone to fastboot (vol- + power) and connect the usb cable,

- unzip downloaded fastboot rom and copy in that same folder those files under mark 3.

After that just run flash_all.bat, wait for 3-4 minutes and voila: 8.1 oreo stock rom.

Hello ,i flashed latest fastboot rom with latest miflashtool,at the end of the process,the tool stuck on showing rebooting device,device was rebooted succesfully but the tool was stuck,what do you think happened,i guess since the OS booted the whole rom was flashed,correct?

I did bootloop after flashing via TWRP. If I re-lock then unlock the bootloader, won't my device be factory reset?

Edit: Fixed it by flashing Substratum rescue zips.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] airidosas252:
YOU DON'T NEED TO RELOCK THE BOOTLOADER!

Just flash the latest build and BOOT IT, don't flash anything else for now. Once it's booted, wait till everything finishes. And now you can go to TWRP and flash everything back you had previously. :)

I had bootloops previously, whenever I try to flash something, aside from the stock ROM and it resulted in nasty bootloops. Right after I figured that I should flash just the ROM and nothing else - everything went flawlessly.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] oreo27:
Yup. I didn't re-lock the bootloader. Turns out it was just substratum that mucked up my update.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] airidosas252:
This is why I don't use anything like Substratum. I hate theming engines, that are 3rd party, to be honest.

Installed 8.1 using Displax Fastboot image (OTA didn't arrive)

Everything was ok, no need to lock bootloader (the initial startup required 3-4 minutes).

I've lost SMS (italian language, so it's not a language-based bug) but i did a backup (thanks for the advice!)

PLEASE NOTE THAT

- Data connection APN needed to be selected (APN were here but no one was selected)

- Data connection was off

- Default network was set to 2G

- Italian translation is partial

- Now when calling, the dialer takes the setted SIM color instead of red. (didn't noticed if this was fixed on previous builds)
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Dior DNA:
Thanks [MENTION=6345368]Displax[/MENTION] for providing the 8.1 fastboot zip.

I run custom 8.1 (GZOSP) and could fastboot flash the partitions just fine

(skipping modem boot and system, of course) to use up to date stock partitions in a custom rom.

While on topic, would it hurt to flash modem_a and modem_b as well on a custom 8.1?

update : I flashed modem partitions as well (on GZOSP).

Hello, i've some noobs questions that i tried to search and not found it...

Now i'm root with magisk and the version of may. Now I want to update to 8.1. Can I update via booting twrp.img, and installing the zip of the image? What the warnings to do that? Lose future Ota's? I'm sure that i will lose root with magisk and i need to install it again, no?

Yes but you could unlock bootloader holding vol-. Then you can boot a Magisk patched boot.img and make a backup of data partition with partition backup. After you could boot Twrp (data will be wiped) and restore backup. Then flash rom.

I am slightly confused

If I compare partitions to fastboot flash from

1) mufyto tissot-F-OPM1.171019.026.V9.6.4.0.ODHMIFE.zip

2) Displax tissot_images_V9.6.4.0.ODHMIFE_20180712.0000.00_8.0_735823083f.tgz

by md5sum or even size,

I get different values.

Also second one uses name emmc_appsboot.mbn to flash aboot whereas first one uses name aboot.img

Which one is the latest and greatest one?

I ask because I want to flash the partitions (except system and boot) [I run custom treble rom] in fact I did

flash the mufyto ones with success but now I hesitate to flash the Displax ones.

Note that older fastboot files tissot-F-OPM1.171019.019.V9.6.3.0.ODHMIFE.zip and tissot-F-OPR1.170623.026.V9.5.13.0.ODHMIFA.zip also used the mufyto naming
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] _mysiak_:
Displax provides link to stock fastboot image. The other one is extracted from OTA file. The main difference is that stock fastboot doesn't break next OTA update. Images extracted from OTA (payload.bin) usually break further OTA updates. Content should be the same, even if they have slightly different size.

MiFlash should work the same as a fastboot flash since it uses the same fastboot images and scripts. The advantage is that users can't run a factory flash script and brick their phones.
