[Redmi Note 8 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Vexx_zerozero:
I almost bricked my device by not disabling AVB the first time (it was bootlooping). Luckily I did install the fix for preventing the brick, so I managed to enter fastboot again and launch the command.

Now I can enter MIUI normally, the problem is that I cannot get TWRP working correctly and I don't know why! fastboot tells me the .img file was correctly sent to the device, but once I try entering it by choosing "Recovery menu" after pressing the Vol Up button I get the stock recovery.

Anyone can help please?

Also I cannot enter fastboot normally (by pressing the Vol Down button), because a chinese menu appears instead of it, so I can only access it by pressing Vol Up and choosing "fastboot mode" from the menu".

EDIT: Forgot to mention that I have the EU MIUI stock firmware

EDIT2: Well, I have installed this unofficial TWRP https://xdaforums.com/redmi-note-8-pro/how-to/recovery-twrp-recovery-redmi-note-8-pro-t4033695 as suggested by [MENTION=4962669]Spleeny97[/MENTION] and it seems to work just fine. Would love to keep the official one instead tho..

Flash with fastboot : fastboot flash recovery YourTWRPrecoveryXXXX.img

poweroff and restart with volume-UP.

Chose recovery, and TWRP'll finish installation over chinia recovery.

Yeah but I had the same problem as other users: After entering recovery I don't see nothing, just a black screen. Unofficial one works perfectly.

After installing TWRP and first time enter into TWRP, what should I do? Do I need to wipe data?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Vexx_zerozero:
Dependa on what you're trying to do. Are you going to flash a custom ROM? Then yes, you need to wipe some partitions, but please take backups before doing anything.

[Redmi Note 8 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Vexx_zerozero:
Then you may only need to wipe Cache/Dalvik.

Choose the Close ADB2.0 option only if you can't boot into system. I have installed Magisk + a custom ROM and I needed to Close ADbB2.0 + RM Encrypt (all boxes checked) in order to successfully boot. Just experiment with those options.

I can successfully flash the image via fastboot but problem starts when I try to reboot my phone.

I tried removing the usb and pressing recovery combo (Volume Up + Power Button) it does not reboot and stays in black screen.

When I let go that's the time it reboots and recovery is replaced withe the original.

I tried flashing OrangeFox and the Unofficial TWRP and still not working.

Is there something wrong with the process that I'm doing?

[Redmi Note 8 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] devdroidso:
Hello,

First of all, thank you for these instructions.

I had some difficulties with the process of loading TRWP in my device (redmi note 8 pro).

I'm new to the world of Roms and Modding, so probably I messed up in some step I didn't notice.

I followed the following instructions:

I successfully unlocked my device.

I successfully enter fastboot mode and disable AVD (fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img).

I successfully flash the TWRP into device (fastboot flash recovery twrp.img).

The problem is after flashing TWRP I need to restart the device. If i use the combination Vol+ and Power, the device boots but it enters into a boot loop state until i release the Vol+ button. When i release the Vol+ button, the device boots into the regular MIUI software.

So I never see the TWRP screen, not even once. Not even the xiaomi recovery mode.

If after a normal boot, I restart with Vol+ and Power, it loads the Xiaomi Recovery Mode.

I hope you can help me with this problem, any help will be appreciated!

Thanks!

I made some research and my phone is bricked stage 1, so I can flash a rom with SP Flash tool but now I need a developper or pro account (an account who work with these applications) someone has an idea of how can I make mine like it or where can ask to lend one ?

That would help me a lot if someone can find a thing at this point.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] mu-stash:
While waiting for the fix, you can still adjust brightness and use twrp. This is what I do to mimic the fix:

Use adb ( "adb shell" ) then paste this:

twrp set TW_MAX_BRIGHTNESS 2047 && sleep 1
twrp set TW_DEFAULT_BRIGHTNESS 900 && sleep 1
twrp set TW_SCREEN_BLANK_ON_BOOT true && sleep 1
twrp set TW_BRIGHTNESS_PATH /sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/brightness && sleep 1
echo 900 > /sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/brightness

This is not a persistent fix, you have to do this each time you boot on recovery. Then you adjust brightness in twrp settings and you're good to go !

[Redmi Note 8 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Raresh T:
if you just want to delete the data stored in your phone, without rewriting the rom, factory reset is enough. if you want to delete everything, including the recovery, you should flash stock rom

Thanks

Thanks for answering, I just want to leave it as new without modifying the rom, since I have installed many things and I feel that it has a lot of garbage, it seems silly but it indicates the way to restore it from the factory my fear is that I install the twrp I do not want to break it in any reboot or something weird I hope you understand I'm using the translator THANK YOU

if you didn't made any big changes with root, like messing up with system apps, a factory reset wont be problematic.

Since the Indian variant has the black screen issue, I flashed the unofficial LR-TWRP as suggested by a few comments here. However, I've been getting this error "Device storage corrupted. Your device is unsafe now" and my device sensors are not working properly. I searched a bit around the Internet and apparently it turns out my persist partition is corrupted and I need to flash persist.img to fix this issue. I tried flashing the firmware again and that doesn't fix it. Upon extracting the rom files, there is no persist.img in the images. So if anyone can help me out with this, I would be very grateful.

tried many times to reflash and reboot but its the same xiaomi recovery

any help?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] wang1chung:
Sounds like you missed the step of deleting the restore recovery script. I think it's named recovery.p in the root directory. Either that or you flashed an Android 9 rom recovery instead of Android 10
[Redmi Note 8 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] theimpulson:
Unless you boot directly into TWRP after flashing and allow it to modify partitions, it won't persist.

I am running into this exact same issue. MIUI 12.0.1.0

When booting to recovery, it goes to a black screen for a few seconds, reboots, then goes back to MIUI. I have tried LR TWRP, TWRP and Orangefox, all exact same issue.

Maybe we are trying to flash the android 9 recovery, rather than the android 10 one. Can you provide a link that I can test?

We aren't even getting into TWRP to be able to delete recovery.p unfortuantely.

Last time I tried to help, the admin deleted my post. This is why everyone is moving to telegram. It's funny how that is the only place I can find a TWRP recovery image that works on my phone.

If you can't get recovery to load (except when stock), something is wrong with the image you're flashing. I suggest you keep trying other images till you find one that works. You won't brick your phone with a bad recovery image as you've just found out, it just doesn't load and gets replaced with stock after MIUI boots.

Hi,

I will be be unlocking my bootloader shortly when the time out is up and just need to clarify one thing.

I can't seem to find my exact firmware version to "grab the vbmeta image" anywhere.

My Phone is UK version 6gb 128GB

Android Version: 9 PPR1.180610.011

Security Patch: 2020-04-01

Question is does the vbmeta image have to be from the exact same firmware version or will any P firmware like the 11.0.6.0 (PGGMIXM) do the trick. :confused:
[Redmi Note 8 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] theimpulson:
I recommend it but shouldn't be required. As far as I am aware, there are only 2 models, one with NFC (global) and without NFC (indian).

Thanks theimpulson for getting back to me on this point :good:

As you have said it's not really required when using CFW method which is the way I went.

I see why you would probably need to do this if you stay on the stock Firmware though. :o

Hey Guys,

i wanted to check what to do, for trying to port a newer Lineage release to this device.

Any hints where to begin?

I luckily compiled the 14.1 branch yesterday.

But what to do next?

Regards for the hints
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluess57:
I've been investigating this recently as well. I started looking at LineageOS 16.0 branch and the Exynos5420 kernal/rom code on github ("https://github.com/exynos5420"), as I am running a build on the tablet from here:-

"https://download.exynos5420.com/LineageOS-14.1-Vanilla/chagalllte/"

BTW, I'm a late/newcomer to android rom development, and I may be off track/incorrect anyways.

I've attempted building branch lineage16.0 with Exynos5420 and currently throws this error :-

bionic/libc/include/bits/fortify/fcntl.h:63:26: error: use of undeclared identifier 'O_TMPFILE'

__clang_error_if(__open_modes_useful(flags), "'open' " __open_too_few_args_error)

The bionic libc wants a definition for O_TMPFILE , I think is to be resolved from the

kernel headers under the kernel device tree at:- kernel/samsung/exynos5420/include/asm-generic/fcntl.h

Of course there is no definition of 'O_TMPFILE' in this header file.

Looks like a later linux kernel version (or patches) to the Exynos5420 kernel code/device is required with headers defining O_TMPFILE.

All I can suggest for porting a newer lineageOs is, get started experimenting/building.

Find/pick up a later device kernel source code tree

For me there is alot to learn and few up-to-date guides

Good luck
