If many users are facing this, including me, then it can´t be an issue with your platform_tools. It is because the data encryption, some ROMs trigger it, then OF, TWRP can´t sort it out.

Anyway, I found a TWRP, that says for Miui 12,5, that I don´t have some mirror, or info on where it was released, and this PBR version also works fine, PBRP-garden-3.1.0-20211109-0814-UNOFFICIA, just search for it.
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Dareepa:
Tried all the recoverys, couldnt get touchscreen working. Installed recovery extracted from lineageos and used that. Not very feature rich but got the job done.
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] SubwayChamp:
And, by the way, you, maybe, try it, some of the two mentioned in my previous post? one of them is this https://sourceforge.net/projects/wu...n-3.1.0-20211109-0814-UNOFFICIAL.zip/download it worked really well.
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Dareepa:
screen doesn't work, flashed as boot and got it working untill the screen locks. Needed to format encrypted system and use lineageos recovery.
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] SubwayChamp:
They work perfectly with 12.5.4, it didn´t work with a newer firmware, since 13.0.1

My Redmi 9at is stuck on a black screen when trying to access the recovery, any fix for that?
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] SubwayChamp:
Install the firmware that matches with that recovery.
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Sputnik1973:
Where can I find that firmware?

I only have the .zip and I have tried reflashing several versions of the stock rom including a china one and all of those ended up on the same point
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] SubwayChamp:
Firmware for Xiaomi devices is not that hard to find https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com, firstly, be sure if your device is the Chinese, Global, or other version, then get to know the exact model, and if is that OFR is compatible with, then proceed again.

Sometimes, by flashing the Firmware (a reduced set of images), it´s enough to get it working, if not, flash the complete ROM.

Hello everyone,

First of all THANKS to Sushrut1101 :)

I read the whole thread and I would like to ask if someone could please post a download link for a recovery that actually works with my device (see details below).

Thanks for your feedback SubwayChamp :)

Just out of curiosity, did you recommend OrangeFox-garden-beta@R11.1_1.zip because you successfully installed it yourself on the same device as mine (details/specs in my previous post)?
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] SubwayChamp:
Sorry for delay, I was very busy. Yes, I installed, and all worked fine with. As a side note, I would tell you that, usually, OFR, is a way better than the rest, in most of my devices I owned. Garden is the codename that cover the crossed development for the R9 variant.
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] SiperX:
No worries, friend :) thanks for your feedback

I followed very carefully all the steps, but when I reboot into recovery the screen is showing some faint light but it's remaining black

I tried to flash OrangeFox, TWRP, PBRP in all possible variants... Same result = nothing but a dark screen :(

Using the same method I flashed back the stock recovery.img (taken from my current ROM) and that one comes up just fine.

I hope someone can point me in the right direction.

The device is rooted with Magisk v26.3 and bootloader is already unlocked.

Here all details:

Do I have to wipe something (using the stock recovery) to enable the custom recovery to show on my screen?

Many THANKS in advance for any useful tip or suggestion :)
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] SubwayChamp:
I also owned a Dandelion device, and, from what I remember, OFR, worked very fine, just, be sure that the firmware, you´re using matches with that recovery version.

When you boot to recovery, connect with your PC, and check if ADB is responding, you have to see something like ADB....sideload, if you see it, then your recovery is booting completely, it could be also a defective hardware?
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] SiperX:
Thanks for your feedback, friend :)

I exclude the defective hardware since my device has been barely used and all system functions and stock recovery features are working perfectly fine.

I suspect that the issue has something to do with the partitions encryption... I recall that I read somewhere that all custom recoveries are "misbehaving" if partitions are encrypted... Problem is, I have been reading a trillion posts lately and I can't find that post any more :(

Any help or suggestion is very appreciated
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] SubwayChamp:
Encryption is solved (temporarily) by wiping/formatting data, this is again, present, when a new ROM is installed, but, for the purpose you are looking for, then, you may format data, after that, flash the recovery, and boot to it, manually, using hardware buttons, not through commands.

If the issue persist, tell me the firmware that you´re actually using, and the recovery you are trying to flash, with a link, to check it.
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] SiperX:
Working on it... (fingers crossed) :)

I will most certainly keep you updated.

Thanks
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] asmalldev:
Hi I am first at XDA I am finding a custom recovery for my device redmi 9a dandelion I found twrp but sadly it is not booting I flashed the stock recovery again and I am going to try it but I am totally can't understand if it got on a bootloop or something like that on recovery then I don't know what to do in that state I am actually doing it to install magisk I think I should use patch boot image or should I extract Lineage recovery from lineage os unofficial.Also does installing magisk will lose IMEI number nvram or something like that.

Cheers,

[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] SiperX:
Hello again SubwayChamp and other XDA friends :)

I received an OTA and updated my ROM to latest global version, however -after that update- the bootloader got locked :(

In an attempt to unlock the bootloader I have bricked my Redmi 9A Dandelion :(

I have tried a couple of unbrick procedures seen on YouTube but so far no success.

Any concrete suggestion to unbrick is MOST welcome :)

Thanks in advance for pointing me in the right direction
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] SubwayChamp:
Firstly, you have to be sure, that the custom recovery you´re using is compatible, with your model device, and, also, with the firmware/Android version.

You also, can use fastboot, to flash a patched boot image, and additionally, SPFT, can, too.
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] SubwayChamp:
It´s very unusual, that, after an update, your device relocks the bootloader, is it your device from second hand, with a previous account?.

In regard the procedure, can you say, which modes are still available, to enter to?, such fastboot, download and/or recovery mode?
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] SiperX:
Brand new, dear. I am the 1st owner.

Please see my post here
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] asmalldev:
Thanks for your reply 😄 anyways I decided to root with patch boot image what do you mean by SPFT do you mean sp flash tool anyway I don't think it can and how can I flash vbmeta with it

Cheers,

Asmalldev
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] SubwayChamp:
Yes, you can use SPFT SmartPhone Flash Tool, and if the vbmeta image is also included into your firmware, then you can flash it with it.
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] SubwayChamp:
Well, the part where you say that device got locked it's hard to understand, there's no reason for this to happen, most well, I think that the device got never really unlocked.

Anyway, guided by your screenshots from SPFT, I think the issue comes from a file not allowing flashing, you have to search for a custom/special/permissive preloader.bin file, and, either, flash, in one round, only this file, after the rest, or, flash all the files, replacing that special preloader instead of the stock one.
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] SiperX:
You can see an update here.

No issues, friend :) it's all good
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] SiperX:
Hi,

I have flashed an Android 10 ROM (Dandelion Global Miui v12.0.22.0 QCDMIXM) on Redmi 9A but I don't manage to install a custom recovery.

I have unlocked the boatloader

USB debugging is enabled

I have formatted userdata

I have rooted the device (Magisk)

I tried to flash the custom recoveries listed at the bottom via fastboot... All I get is a black screen when booting into recovery!

Now I flashed back the (pretty useless) stock recovery and that one displays properly.

Hopefully someone will be so kind to help.

Thanks :)

First run this command fastboot -w also only use platform tools or your phone again dead ! The command will wipe data and decrypt rom If your device reboot after running this command then don't let miui boot directly boot into fastboot and flash recovery then flash vdfe or custom rom.If still not working then extract lineage recovery from lineage os it may be a bad Idea idk 😶 also you can try gsi which does not actually need a custom recovery but look if your phone has project treble by installing this app treble info from Play Store you can find a lot gsi it's good but you may face some bugs.
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] asmalldev:

Also do you flash vbmeta ? Don't skip that step

WOW, I read the tutorial and it seems to be a rather elaborate procedure, I am happy you have the time and the skills to mod an existing TWRP and port it to the Redmi 9A.

I trust your exam went well(y)
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] asmalldev:
Bruh , I am not porting it , Porting is easy but it will left with a lot of bugs but if we use compile method then nothing is overwrited to the .img because we are making it not modifying it , in simple way porting is modifying but building/compiling is making it from source code.

You should flash the OF recovery, then if you want reboot to it, use the hardware buttons, pwr + volume up
[Redmi 9A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] AinzTheSupremeOne:
Here's what I did.

1. Flashed the recovery.img using

`fastboot flash recovery recovery.img`

2. Booted into the recovery

`fastboot reboot recovery`

3. Went to ADB/sideload and sideloaded the Ofox recovery zip file.

`adb sideload OFox-flashable.zip`

If you don't flash the zip file in step one. You won't be able to boot into recovery next time.

If this does not work, you might want to format userdata and cache.

`fastboot format userdata`

`fastboot format cache`

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] joe mboule:
I was travelling last week by plane when I received instruction not to use my mobile in flight mode. I was hoping to watch a few movies on my phone and to listen to some quality music. So what good is flight mode if airlines don't allow it?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Guilf:
They're idiots. It's happened to me too. Tell them it's not receiving or transmitting - it's a PDA.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tanked:
Do exactly like Guilf said. Most flight attendants just think its another dumbass who thinks they are an exception to the rule. Just politely explain that you are not transmitting or receiving. I personally tell them its a PDA to begin with. Saves me the trouble of having to get into a technical discussion with someone who make $27,000 and is nothing more than a glorified air waiter/waitress. Now don't get me wrong I've met some cool flight attendents, but the majority are not going to understand something more technical than putting music on their iPod.

I do, however, have some choice words for the "exceptions" who do use their phones without turning flight mode on...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] brynwall:
the funny thing is that mythbusters basically said that phones don't do anything in planes. lol
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tanked:
This is true, while I wouldn't run around saying that a Mythbuster show is equivalent to scientific fact, today's air plane technology makes it pretty much impossible for interference from cell phones to occur. At the same time, I would hate to be the jackass who caused the plane to crash that one time interference did occur. Just do the responsible thing and put it in Flight Mode.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Beeble:
Unfortuantly phones CAN affect aircraft systems - and i know because i'm an avionic engineer. Although the chances of your phone having a detectable effect is pretty slim.

The (recent / impending) introduction of inflight mobile service is based on putting a picocell onboard so you phone can only talk to the aircraft's cell - even when you would normally be able to receive a different one - and as the phone is close the the cell, it transmits at very low power.

Currently (in the UK atleast) mobiles are still not allowed to be used on the flight deck (in flight) as close proximity to the instruments does cause interference.

There is no reason why you cant use your device in "flight mode" when any other electrical/electronic devices are allowed - but regardless of that, if you p*ss the crew off enough they'll simply divert and/or have you arrested! Best to speak nicely to the hostie!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ButtonBoy:
YMMV - I use BA a lot, and they always tell you to put your cell phone into flight mode or turn it off. Aer Lingus doesn't know about this mode - at least the FAs I had didn't know about it. State-side; some crews on Alaska know about it, SWA crews don't.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] -888-:
Some people don't understand flight mode too, and after turning on flight mode they whip out their bluetooth headsets and they think its OK. Just few weeks ago I was seated with some dumb asshole who got pissed when I told him using BT headset with his PDA is *not* using it in a flightmode, and he made such a scene when attendant told him to just turn it off.

Flightmode supposed to turn off ANY radio signals in/out, but its not the case with many phones and PDAs because users can still manually turn on wifi or bluetooth radio while in the flightmode (which is the case with our Kaisers).

And those short range but strong signal radios (wifi and bt) are IMHO most dangerous for the plane's electronics than the typical GSM radio at all.

Do not think all attendants are idiots. Certainly some of them are indeed, but so are many of passengers too :)

I rather fly with a pissed off idiot beside me and arrive safely - than take any chances of having something on the plane disrupted or not functioning just to please some idiot passenger.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kilrah:
Strong signal? Come on, BT only uses 10mW, 100mW for Wifi. GSM will blast 2/4W, so 200-400 times more power than BT.

Have you ever heard your speakers buzzing with BT/WiFi? That's common with GSM though...

There are airplanes equipped with WiFi access points...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] louisli:
How about GPS?

Does it work inside aircrafts? I tried to turn on GPS in trains to China but it doesn't seem to receive any signal.

If we could use GPS and Wifi in airplanes, that would be fun:p
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kilrah:
GPS sometimes works if you are at the window, and it depends on the plane. But you have a nice faraday cage around you, so reception isn't usually that good.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] sly666:
My phone always gets a good GPS signal on planes sitting by the window.

Its funny to watch TOMTOM tell me im doing 489 miles per hour as i pass though villages!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] cyjeff:
I travel every week.

Usually, all it takes is showing the person the little "x" symbol next to the phone icon to prove that it is off.

I know that it takes SEVERAL phones to all be on to trigger any negative effects to the aircraft.

The funny part for me is when flight attendants get on the PA and state "our instruments still show several phones in the on position and we cannot take off until they are shut off"... like they have some sort of sniffer hookup next to the coffee maker and rubber chicken entree dispenser.

Of course, it is always just easier to find the butt on his BB that thinks that his conversation is so important that the rest of the plane should wait. Last Tuesday, some yahoo next to me on the flight to LA wouldn't turn his phone off until the FA finally told him that if he didn't shut off his phone NOW they were going to remove him from the plane.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] d0ugie:
My take.

In that West Wing episode, when interrupted from using his cell phone by a flight attendant, Communications Director Toby Ziegler argues, "We're flying in a Lockheed Eagle Series L-1011. Came off the line twenty months ago. Carries a Sim-5 transponder tracking system, and you're telling me I can still flummox this thing with something I bought at Radio Shack?"

Everybody knows, including most flight attendants, that cell phones pose no danger whatsoever to planes or their navigation equipment. What they do pose, however, is a threat to the tranquility enjoyed by passengers that cell phone use would disrupt. We already have an FCC ban against phones based on outdated technological concerns, but we still need the ban to make flying less annoying; so rather than bothering to redraft the law, why not leave it intact and continue to enforce it?

If you want to fire up BeeLineGPS and see how fast and high you're going, do it subtly on the side of your leg. Stewardesses who don't understand that a GPS receiver simply receives signals and is no more dangerous than an iPod won't be convinced by your explanation and will instead identify you as a difficult pain in the ass and be pissed that you think you are above ze law.

So go with it. This won't change anytime soon.

BeeLineGPS rules, by the way.
