I flash the stock ROM for May 2020 from TWRP and I can't install OTAs because they give me an installation problem, does this help me to install OTAs from TWRP? Please hope someone can help me.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] paolocorpo:
If you have TWRP you cannot installa any official OTA

You have to continue to use repacked OTA just for TWRP

Or you can flash a stock firmware wo loose data, update the system and later (it you want) reinstalls TWRP

I don't have TWRP installed because it gets erased after flashing stock ROM from it but it still gives me OTA error.

hi guys I'm stuck at the November patch I have

installed magisk + xposed + GravityBox how can I upgrade it to Oreo without losing everything?

do I have to do a new flash install from the beginning?

installing oreo automatically via OTA then reflow with magisk for root?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] PratikJain4:
You can use the method explained in the OP ( pick up the 8.0 Android zip ) and use the dirty install method ( 1st one in the command line tool ) to update to Oreo . You might need to be in Latest December patch though.. Xposed isnt yet out for Oreo, so yeah, GBox will not work. Magisk works just fine with this method.

Correction : Use the one mentioned here :

Hey guys, my Mi A1 is not A/B partitioned(checked in TWRP after fastboot boot twrp.img) and never received any OTA.

So because of this i cannot install at least 7.12.19 and 7.12.29 via fastboot it just says 'Device A/B support is outdated. Bootloader update required' and 'partition tqble does not exist'. Latter is during modem_a update. Any thoughts?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] _mysiak_:
Sound like you have Mi 5X with Mi A1 ROM, verify your IMEI/SN here, it must show A1 model. https://www.mi.com/verify/#imei_en Also is your current ROM from August?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] vvorth:
ROM from August, shows security patch Aug 1 . Also based on link you provided it is really 5X.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ajegile:
do you have full rom pacth january ?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] vvorth:
Not following what you mean.

BTW it could have been flashed before it was sold to me. It was new but box was open and sometimes sellers do it unfortunately. It's common to get required language support for example.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] _mysiak_:
Sorry to hear that. You might want to reflash it with official MIUI ROM so you get more recent security patch and OTA updates.

I hope there will be a way anytime soon to repartition it to completely convert to A1.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] KalolParty:
Ok I'm a little confused about everything.

1. The latest full ROM posted is the one with January patch, correct?

2. I'm currently running Nougat with December 1st patch - rooted with Magisk and without TWRP. If I factory reset my phone and then flash the above mentioned full ROM or the OTA (which isn't there yet), there'd be no issues right?

3. Also, any possibility of the captured OTA for the Oreo January patch?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] albi7894:
Same for me, does someone have the ota link? I'm trying everything to get it
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] _mysiak_:
OTA link will not help you, ADB sideload is broken on A1, so you can't do much with OTA zip file.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] maurock00:
Hi guys please could you confirm if this ROM "Android 8.0.0 [OPR1.170623.026.8.1.10]" is the last update, I mean OREO with de January security patch ? Thanks in advance !!
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] KalolParty:
Same question!
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] gusbalaa:
We don't know it.

Maybe we gonna get Oreo 8.1 i think it's not a last update.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] hacker1:
Yes, thats Oreo with the Jan security patch. BUT it's an OTA update rom, you can't flash it with fastboot, MiFlash or TWRP.

The only way to flash it is through the "update engine", which is part of Android, but not readily accessible (you either have to trick the official "System Update"-app into flashing it (which is kinda pointless), or use root to talk directly to the "update engine")
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] maurock00:
Thanks for your replay dude, I really aprettiate it. Regards
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] KalolParty:
So close to the update but can't flash it! Why can't Xiaomi release everything on time?

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] mparmpas122321:
Just have patience. Sooner or later kernel sources will be released and the true potential of the device will be unlocked. We won't have to rely on Xiaomi anymore.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] NITRO_100:
What time ?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] KalolParty:
I agree. This was my first true Google phone (well, sort of). Thought I'd stick with the stock ROM (and a custom kernel obviously) because it has all that I need.

Clearly, updates (their quality and their distribution) are the last thing on Xiaomi's mind - MIUI or not.

how to install this?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] KalolParty:
But it can be flashed via the stock recovery?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] _mysiak_:
No. OTA ADB sideloading doesn't work on this phone, so even if you have OTA file at hand, it's pretty much useless. You can vote (click confirm) for this bug here http://en.miui.com/thread-1398309-1-1.html
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] KalolParty:
So I just wait for the update or the fastboot ROM?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] _mysiak_:
Exactly, at the moment these are the only options how to get stock update to Mi A1.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] hacker1:
If you have root you can "flash" the update with the "update engine", but it's not the easiest way to update.

If you can't wait for the update to show up, either force the update using those methods that are floating around (it might mess up your notifications for a day or two though), or flash one of these images (apparently one of them is unmodified)
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] KalolParty:
I tried those "Google Services Framework" methods and they didn't work

So last night I flashed the Android N Fastboot image and started from scratch. The Oreo update didn't show up. Tried "Google Services Framework" methods again and got nothing. Didn't mess with my notifications though so I'm good.

IDK when I'll get it. I hope the Fastboot ROM comes soon

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Bayazid B. Halim:
Tried both methods, doesn't work. First one still led to the above. Second one resulted in FlashFire unable to get the Update Engine binary or something, which I'm guessing might be due to TWRP. Although FlashFire in general hasn't worked at all with me, it won't backup anything when I tried to.

Otherwise, I've found that Fontio's flashable fonts and TypeFace works fairly well, although when combined with Substratum themes, changing fonts seems to be able to create some problems.

Hi everyone. I had to share this. I've rooted my Note8 and flashed the official FW a couple of times. and yes it has now Knox 0x1 Varanty Void :D I flashed the official FW N950FXXU1AQI1 a couple days ago. Today just out of boredom I select the software update. it found an update and installed it!!! My Note8 has the build number N950FXXS1AQK9 now. Can anyone explain to me how is this possible?? I thought a Knox 0x1 phone can't get an OTA update!! :eek: :silly: :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Kalm_Traveler:
I believe that the OTA updates don't work only when the software status is "custom". Even if Knox is tripped, you can flash full stock software and the phone will be "official" status.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] winol:
Yes, OTA updates are available when official firmwares installed

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Has_anDroid:
OTA updates work trip knox my device s8+ stock flash nougat rom ota update message install system update
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] thedicemaster:
it depends on local laws regarding warranty.

I know in many European countries having modified software is not enough proof of user error, so regardless of policies they have to honor warranty unless it's specifically a defect caused by software modifications.

so if you delete your imei or bootloader or burn out your CPU with overclocking they can still deny warranty, but they can't deny repairs of known issues(like note 4's motherboard degradation, or note 7 self combustion) just because your device is flagged.
