As some users reported, it's seems that TWRP is unable to decrypt data partition after rebooting to TWRP a second time, I will try to fix this issue as soon as possible

If you want to help for testing, join my telegram group (link on first post) and tag me inside it
[POCO M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] stunning:
yes thank you

exactly that is what happening after flashing this twrp on poco m3. data got encrypted and no use after formating data partition. right now useless but hopefully will get the perfect working version by the developer soon.

Looking forward Thank you

Hey everyone, I made a little investigation and sadly Xiaomi broke encryption on 29 December update for MIUI V12 TW, TR, RU and ID since users from MIUI V12 EU, MI and IN 15 December to 27 November update reported me to doesn't have any problems

All you can do is waiting Xiaomi for fixing this problem or to someone for finding a workaround
[POCO M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] druidvn:
hey.

I have encountered the same state of mind as you. then i used rom india. after that I switched to global rom using miflash and twrp worked normally again
[POCO M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XxAhmetxX:
Merhaba tam olarak nasıl yaptın Twrp'yi kurmadan önce, indian rom'u yüklediniz ve ardından global ve sonunda twrp'yi yüklediniz bu sıra doğru mu

Hello exactly how did you do Before installing twrp, you installed indian rom and then global and finally twrp is this order correct

[POCO M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XxAhmetxX:

Guys, I've heard that unlocking the bootloader decreases the DRM certification of the device and makes it impossible to watch HD content on Netflix etc. Can anyone confirm to me if this is true or not? And sorry for the OT
[POCO M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Noru29:
I don't know about Netflix but I saw a Magisk's module named "liboemcrypto.so disabler" who can bypass this protection.

Hi, i trayng to instal twrp but have same problem like XxAhmetxX. I switch from 12.0.1.0(QJFEUXM) to 12.0.3.0(QJFMIXM) but cant flash twrp. When i try get the same folders like ahmet screenshots. Trying many times with/without fingerprint or any lockscreen type and nothing. Cant instal TWRP. Can someone help me? Can i instal Xiaomi.eu ROM w/o TWRP?
[POCO M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XxAhmetxX:
If you want to use Eu rom, you can do it with flash, I did that. Let me even tell you from the beginning. Twrp was constantly encrypted, I was not doing Root, I needed Root to do repair. I downloaded the eu rom to boot from inside. I bought img, put it on the phone memory, downloaded the magisk apk and booted. I created a new Root file by scanning img, I rooted it by scanning the phone through cmd and then I did repair. I have already installed eu rom before installing twrp with flash.
[POCO M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] sharaan:
i put xiaomi eu rom ( zip ) in phone memory, put original boot.img file in phone, instal magisk manageger app on phone, patch the boot.img, restart to fastboot, flash patchet boot.img. when i turn phone on i have instaled magisk + magisk manager. Now i dont know how to flash xiaomi.eu rom ( zip file ). I know hot to do it only from twrp but the phone is with stock recovery and cant instal zip file. What i need to do to flash this zip file?
[POCO M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XxAhmetxX:
It won't happen because twrp is encrypted. You should download fastboot eu rom and do it with fastboot code or flash
[POCO M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] sharaan:
From where you download fastboot xiaomi eu rom? can you give me link? I dont see fastboot rom in the site (1) MIUI 12.0 - MIUI 12.0 STABLE RELEASE | Xiaomi European Community
[POCO M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XxAhmetxX:
Sorry. Install the eu rom by following the instructions in the first message in this link

Eu rom => https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-miui-citrus-xiaomi-eu-rom-for-poco-m3.4196463/

To root, follow the second method in the link below, extract the boot img file from the downloaded zip file and put it in the phone memory, detailed information is available below.

Root => https://www.thecustomdroid.com/inst...hing-magisk-patched-boot-image-using-fastboot
[POCO M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] sharaan:
I need little more info.

- Unpack downloaded zip file in the PC = done

- Reboot your device to fastboot mode (press volume down + power) = done

- Connect to PC via USB cable = done

- Run fastboot installation script from unpacked zip according your PC operating system: cant understand this. Run it with hold shift + right click on abd folder or on unziped folder?

For Windows OS ./windows_fastboot_first_install_with_data_format.bat when i try this command on ziped folder get error :

[POCO M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] sharaan:
So you mean i need extract the zip file of rom in to abd folder, right?
[POCO M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XxAhmetxX:
Let me tell you from the beginning how I did everything sorry for the confusion.

- downloaded the eu rom fastboot.zip file from this link

- eu rom fastboot zip file => https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=10763459528675593934

I extracted the zip file to the desktop as a folder I connected the phone in fastboot mode usb debugging is on and I clicked the windows_fastboot_first_install_with_data_format.bat command, which is inside the zip file extracted to the desktop eu rom is installed (all data is deleted)

and

I did the following to install root

I took the boot.img file in the firmware-update file in the fastboot.zip file I downloaded above and put it in the phone memory and then I applied only method 2 in the root description below.

i hope you can i did everything exactly like this and my poco m3 phone was rooted and eu rom was installed i did imei repair

Thank you so much. This is clear info. I trying with 12.0.4.0 ( is zip, but not fastboot ) because show on upper line and i see its the newest version. With your info i have successful installed the xiaomi eu rom 12.0.3.0 and not lose root. Now if i want update to 12.0.4.0 need update from updater like normal update?
[POCO M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XxAhmetxX:
glad you succeeded I don't know if ota gets an update, I haven't tried it but you can install a more updated version with the same method.

I think it's worse with the module....

@TheMalachite just change the metadata path on recovery.fstab to "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/metadata" and TWRP will be able to decrypt userdata
[POCO M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] KaMyKaSii:
As TheMalachite seems to be offline for a while and to help those who want to make backups properly to modify their devices, I will attach the TWRP image with the fix in fstab
[POCO M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] TheMalachite:
It doesn't do anything different with since partitions like metadata should be also on /dev/block/by-name

Yes, I don't know why either, but it works

[POCO M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] KaMyKaSii:
Very strange. Using your TWRP image it is not possible to decrypt on my Poco M3 with the latest EEA stable ROM. With just the modification I said, TWRP asks for the password and decrypts it correctly.

I seem to have a similar issue.

My device is unlocked, I manage to install any recovery .img and restart into recovery mode using buttons (does not work from fastboot CLI).

Trying to flash any ROM, it fails as it cannot find /system (No such file or directory)

I use MX Linux 19, not Windows.

zip files are stored on an SD Card

After several attempts trying anything, it ends up reloading the Orignal MIUI ROM (GLOBAL 12.0.10 Stable - QJFEUXM), TWRP is gone and I have to go through phone init and re-enable developer mode to re-enable USB-Debug to re-install TWRP.

Is it mandatory to have a SIM card in it ?

Hello mates! Please help!

As many people mentioned before, a lot of us have the same issue: We don' t have access to delete system through twrp or any other recovery, so, we can't flash any custom rom on Poco M3.

The solutions I read above were:

For me, it didn't work.

This is not something easy to do (at least I don't know how, but if someone could help me, that would be great!).

Also, as I read above, Poco M3 has dynamic partitions.

That means we can't delete system? So, how does enybody flash custom roms???

Anyway, I would really appreciate if some more exprerinced member could help by providing a working solution to this problem.

By now it's partly fixed on my end. Specifically to get into twrp I had to press volume up and power together, but stop holding power when the phone turned on. I had/have some more problems after that though...

ur phone is dead like other m3 there r many posts about this problem on xda u can find // there is no permanent fix // one of ways to boot as u said was battery drain // im hoping by flashing custom rom i might bypass this bug but couldnt get free time to do it //

there is fast way to boot up

take back cover out / take out top side

unplug battery ( right end one) then as fast as u plugging charging cable , plug battery cable and press power btn

let charge for 10min then turn power on

Can anyone point me in the right direction? I've just received my Poco M3 and want to flash it with TWRP. I've installed all the drivers from the Xiaomi site: https://flashxiaomi.com/xiaomi-poco-m3-usb-driver/

But when I get into flashboot mode and put in the first command (adb reboot reloader) I'm getting a return "error: devie '(null)' not found. In device manager I have an Android bootloader interface.

I'm guessing I need a different driver?

I'm seeing the Orangefox recovery, but it also need fastboot to install (duhhh) and that's where my problem is.

Hmmmm, something's fishy:

I've toggled OEM to unlock bootloader, I've toggled USB debugging, but it seems the bootloader is still locked.

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> adb reboot bootloader

error: device '(null)' not found

enter fastboot mode with Volume Down + Power, select device in device manager, install android_winusb.inf driver and choose Android Bootloader Interface

edit: create Mi account, enable Xiaomi SIM activation service, wait 7 days, enable OEM unlocking and unlock bootloader with MiFlash Tool
[POCO M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] itsMuppet:
Thanx! Why wait 7 days? Does Xiaomi have to actively give permission to unlock bootloader?

When looking to the MiFlash tool, it only states that you can flash stock ROM. How does that unlock bootloader? On all my other phones the toggle in developer options did the trick.
