[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Benjamin_L:
Don't quote full posts and at least read the last few posts before posting. This has just, as in the last post before yours, been discussed...
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] vroomr:
Not to agree with people asking for ETA's or anything, but it is pretty reasonable for people to ask whats up. New build coming soon is a bit of a tease.

Looking at the source in the GitHub link in OP, it has not been touched for 10 days.

Instead of saying new link coming soon, maybe it would be less misleading if there was a simple notice saying the state of things. Like - do not use, broken.

Just my 2 cents...
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Manish4586:
I didn't got my device yet so, its being delayed.

As soon as i got it there will be an update.

As the twrp only working for custom roms only.

Flashing in stock breaks system.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Daha3ker:
looks like stock will not boot with a bootloader signed with public keys. (selinux crap). I am working on a modified stock rom and ran into this issue. Just an observation that you probably already know but is worth a mention.

Edit: I had a few private messages asking for more clarification. The boot Img being signed with public keys causes the system to boot either in permissive mode or in enforcing with errors. I understand that doesn't have much to do with the Rom and has more to do with the kernel. But when I enable selinux permissive in stock, it boots with the current twrp img
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Manish4586:
We don't have time to fix all selinux rules so, we keel selinux as permissive.

Hopefully if you can test please pm me here: t.me/Manish4586

It will help me and us to get stable twrp at the fastest way.

hi guys

after restoring twrp backup (data and system)

WIFI is broken, no way to make it work again, even restoring persist backup from twrp or flashing the original persist

not either deleting file contect of wifi_mac.bin in root/persist

does anyone know how to make wifi working again after TWRP restore of data and system?

differently TWRP is totally useless for backup in Mi A2 at the current state.

I just wondered flashing patched_boot.img or boot.img makes pie GSI have a working root and without breaking everything
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Zack kross:
Hi. I am newly posting here and a mi a2 owner. After a week trying to flash the recovery, finally, maybe i am a retard and don't understand what is the real and effective method of working twrp. You talk about a patched boot but i don't know if you talking about patched rooted boot.img or about an special boot.img for keep twrp working. For all that people in my same situation, i explain my method. First, check with fastboot your boot slot with the command "fastboot getvar current-slot". It will give you a or b. Next, install the recovery with this command in the contrary slot "fastboot flash boot_b twrp_jasmine.img" (if you get A with getvar command). After this, "fastboot set_active b". Reboot pressing power bottom and volume up, and go into recovery. After this, i flash twrp.img again as boot image (im not sure if this is needed but work). When you finish using twrp, go to reboot label and set slot A to reboot normaly. And here is the solution to my problem. After start my phone and retry go into twrp again, don't work anymore. You will find the stock android recovery. But opening the terminal and typing again "fastboot set_active b", buaaalaaaa, twrp is there working again (remember to turn again to slot A in reboot label after reboot system). That's work ever, but you need the pc terminal. There are another better option?? Thanks.

---------- Post added at 03:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:22 AM ----------

If you go to your internal storage and everything has weird characters and folders are empty that means your device is encrypted, you need to wipe /data (with internal) aka full wipe

Boot into your device first and backup your important stuff before you do anything

After that, wipe your device fully, flash recovery, reboot to recovery to test. If pbrp boots, then adb transfer your rom & gapps and etc etc zip to device and flash them, reboot to device and set up as new. Afterwards copy back over everything you backed up originally

Do not encrypt your device
