[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] k4win:
Hi guys

today was my waiting time over and so i opend the bootloader and flashed:

Twrp_3.3.0_Cepheusv11

xiaomi.eu_multi_MI9_9.5.23_v10-9

Magisk-v19.2

all with success.

The phone (Global version, 6gb+128gb) boots normal and everything works fine up to the point where i want to boot in TWRP. After starting the phone with power+Vol up i get the mi unlocked screen and then for 1 second a black screen, then its reboot and i'm on the mi unlock screen again. Fastboot and normal system boot works fine, i have root over magisk and everything.

Any ideas how to get into twrp again?

Longer version:

After unlocking the bottloader i followed this guide-how-flashed-twrp-xiaomi-eu-rom but with newer files. For TWRP i used the Twrp_3.3.0_Cepheusv11 version from here. The eu rom came from sourceforge and the magisk version from here.

I flashed twrp over terminal from my pc with "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" and uploaded the rom and magisk with "adb push rom.zip /tmp/" + "adb push magisk.zip /tmp/" to the ram. After disconnection the usb cable i hold down power+vol up while still in the fastboot mode and the phone reboots into twrp. from there it was strait following the guid eg. wipe menu, format data, confirmed with "yes", wipe menu again, factory reset. Install rom.zip, install magaisk.zip both without any errors. Reboot menu and select "do not install" for the twrp app.

From now on the eu rom started up, i connected to my wlan and connected the phone to my mi account and after that to my google account. The rest was normal installation.

After installing everything i debloated the phone with this list. Instead of pasting the full list i chose just the follwing parts:

Android Stuff: none

Google Stuff: none

Xiaomi Stuff: all

Xiaomi Apps: all

Extra Stuff: none

To be Tested yet (try at your own risk):

com.miui.compass

com.miui.calculator

com.miui.cloudservice.sysbase

com.miui.gallery

com.miui.screenrecorder

com.mi.webkit.core

com.miui.providers.weather

Unfortunately is the android.providers.calendar app in the xiaomi app list and my calender didn't sync to google without it. So i read a bit about the com.android.providers.calendar app and learned that it is a specific app for every version of android and i cannot simply use the version from my other phone.

Okay, i thougt, my system is just about 2 hours old i reflash the eu rom and magisk and be done with it. So said, i wanted to boot into twrp, powerd the phone off, hold down power+vol up and got the miui unlocked screen, after that 1 second of black screen and than the miui unlock screen again with is followed by the normal system boot.

First i thought i missed the right moment for holding the buttons down so i installed apps which allowed me to directly reboot into recovery.

But with ervery app it was the same: miui unlocked screen, after that 1 second of black screen and than the miui unlock screen again with is followed by the normal system boot.

So i reflashed twrp over the terminal "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" and it was stated a success. But again only: miui unlocked screen, after that 1 second of black screen and than the miui unlock screen again with is followed by the normal system boot.

Next i tried to reboot into recovery from adb but it was the same result.

Next i tried to just boot twrp from terminal with "fastboot boot twrp.img" but again, same result.

Next i tried to install different versions of twrp. From beta8 to beta11 i flashed every version but again, same result.

Now i'm sitting here happy with a new eu rom and fully rooted but unhappy with the knowing i cannot update anymore. Any ideas how to get into twrp again?

Edit: i reinstalled my android.providers.calendar after i read the "How to Re-Install an Uninstalled App" section again ^^
