Before following this guide, make sure you have followed the rom flashing guide below the post below or xiaomi.eu rom flashing guide.

If you have followed the flashing guide then you may continue.

Hello Amigos,

You can use this guide to install other recovery than TWRP also.(Other recoveries are listed in the guide itself)

Steps to install

First of all unlock bootloader of your device . Search net for more info.

After this install adb drivers from here: https://xdaforums.com/t/...reborn-v2-0-adb-fastboot-and-drivers.3854109/

Choose skip install for adb and install google drivers.

Connect your device in fastboot mode to your pc.

Go into device manager , right click on unrecognized android device , choose update drivers , let me pick from a list of drivers , select adb drivers , android bootloader interface and click install.

Then go to your custom rom download thread and check the date of rom file(In this case derpfest).

Download the latest platform-tools from the Android developer site and extract the zip in an easily accessible folder

Download the recovery image file

Restart your device to fastboot mode

Method 1:

Using this adb command if you have USB debugging active on your device:

adb reboot bootloader

Method 2:

- Turn off your device

- After it has completely turned off, press and hold Vol - and the Power button at the same time until the word "FASTBOOT" with orange letters comes out

Method 3:

- Turn off yout device

- Press and hold Vol - button

- Connect the USB cable (previously connected to the PC) to the device and press and hold the button until the word "FASTBOOT" with orange letters comes out

Connect your device to the PC

Open a cmd window in the folder where you extracted the binaries from the zip from step 1

Easy method: Open the folder, and without leaving it, type "cmd" in the address bar of the file explorer and press enter. Command promt will open a window directly in the folder location

Verify that your device is recognized by fastboot using this command:

fastboot devices

If your device has been detected (a serial number followed by the word fastboot), you can continue. Otherwise, check if the drivers are installed correctly, although if you used Mi Unlock and were able to unlock the device correctly on the PC you are using, you should not have problems with that.

- Because this device uses A/B partitions, there is no recovery partition as such, but it is integrated into the "boot" partition. So, first we must boot using the TWRP image.

Type this command in the cmd window, but don't press Enter yet, just type it and leave a space at the end:

fastboot boot_

Don't write the "_". This only indicates the space you should leave at the end.

This is how it should look when you write it:

Now, drag the image file (yourrecoveryhere.img) to the command window and drop it above the window. This will make you copy your exact location for convenience.

- The result should be this:

Code:

fastboot boot "C:\location\to\your\file\yourrecoveryhere.img"

Quotation marks are only added if the entire location has spaces.

Otherwise, it is displayed without quotation marks.

Press Enter and wait a few seconds. The MI logo will come out, and then the TWRP logo.

DONE! You've started perfectly in recovery

From the device

NOTE: Only use these steps if you want to have TWRP installed semi-permanently

I said "semi-permanent" because when flashing any ROM, and knowing that the "recovery" is integrated into the "boot" partition, it will be lost after leaving TWRP, so you can follow these steps if you want to avoid loss of TWRP.

If you have easy access to a PC, you can be fine with the boot method. If you don't have easy access to a PC, you can follow these steps.

Method 1(For TWRP)

While in the TWRP menu, tap the Advanced button

Copy the TWRP image file to the internal memory or SD card from the PC. MTP mode is enabled by default

You can use a USB OTG too

Now tap on the option "Install recovery ramdisk"

Now locate the file and tap on it.

You can use the "Select storage" button to switch between different storages

"Swipe to confirm" and the TWRP installation process will begin

Method 2(For TWRP)

While in the TWRP menu, tap the Install button

Copy the TWRP image file to the internal memory or SD card from the PC. MTP mode is enabled by default.

You can use a USB OTG too

Now locate the file and tap on it.

You can use the "Select storage" button to switch between different storage

In the new menu, select "Install recovery ramdisk" and then "Swipe to confirm Flash"

Method 3(For SHRP)

2. Then click on flash current shrp button and click on tick button to flash shrp.

Method 4(For SHRP)

In the new menu, select "Install recovery ramdisk" and then "Swipe to confirm Flash" if its img file or click on zip file of shrp , then click on tick button to flash.

Method 5(For OrangeFox)

1. While booted in Ofox, click on menu at the bottom right of the screen.

2. There you will see manage partitions, reboot , mount as such . The last thing in menu column you will

see will be more. Click on more, then below fix contents you will see flash current orange fox. Swipe to confirm flash.

Method 6(For OrangeFox)

While booted in ofox , tap files button at the bottom left of the screen.

Copy the ofox image file to the internal memory or SD card from the PC. MTP mode is enabled by default.

You can use a USB OTG too.

Now locate the file and tap on it.

You can use the "Select storage" button to switch between different storage

In the new menu, select "Install recovery ramdisk" and then "Swipe to confirm Flash"

Remember that with the three methods mentioned above you will lose root access (Magisk), so do not forget to flash it again. These steps are also valid to update TWRP or other recovery if you already had it previously installed.

NOTE:

If mtp not working or device not getting detected as a portable device in any recovery then watch this guide here: GUIDE

Do not replace the recovery or try to update recovery that comes with roms. This can brick your device

If your rom mentions to use a specific recovery then use that instead

Enjoy !
