In my case, before using twrp from vovan77, i'm using 3.1.1-1 official. I can't flash this ROM (it said error 7)

Update from twrp, (wipe dalvick + cache 1st), select image, choose twrp from vovan77 (twrp 3.2.3-0 CMIIW), Then reboot to recovery. It will be 3.2.3-0 version.

Did you find a fix?
I never had so much trouble getting TWRP to work :(

I did the same upgrade to new TWRP and PIE with a Redmi 4 Prime (Markw) and it took me 5 min to succeed. But when I tried with updating TWRP on my Mi4C (Libre) it would not boot into new TWRP. I have spend hours with no luck. I tried several offical and non-official versions of TWRP for Libre. They all show success when flashing TWRP both from within TWRP and with adb/fastboot. But then won't boot to recovery, but hangs at Mi logo. I originally came from twrp cofface from Teamsuperluminal, which I believe was around version 2.8.

I tried flashing all newest officiel from AndropaX (twrp-3.1.1-1-libra.img, twrp-3.1.1-0-libra.img)
then from other developers and lastly:
twrp-3.2.1-0.img (Vovan77)
TWRP+3.2.3-0_libra.img (Vovan77)
TWRP+3.2.2-0_libra.img (Vovan77)

As mentioned all succeeded with no errors, but then would not boot. However from fastboot/adb I could flash, but not run fastboot boot <img file name>. It would give me the error: FAILED (remote: dtb not found).

I did manage to get TWRP 3.1.0.0 (twrp-20170815-0837.img from Cozzmy13) to boot with no issues, but when inside TWRP it gave me error 7 when flashing. I then tried to remove the first lines starting with assert from the custom rom and TWRP was then able to flash the ROM with no errors. However now the ROM did not boot :( Tried with both PixelExperience_libra-8.1.0-20180825-0823-STABLE & lineage-16.0-20190102-UNOFFICIAL-libra)

I checked my bootloader and it is not locked and I was still able to restore my nandroid with TWRP 3.1.0.0.

Really want to upgrade to PIE and don't want to give up. Hope someone found the fix.

At the moment my last guess is that I new to update my bootloader somehow - indicating from the errors I received. I believe the current was marshmellow. To do this I need to flash latest miui? Meanwhile I'll try to flash xiaomi.eu_multi_MI4c_V10.1.1.0.NXKCNFI_v10-7.0.zip and see if it updates the bootloader.


I have the same problem. Right now I'm using 3.1.1-0 on lollipop bootloader. If I update to a 3.2 recovery version I can't boot to it.

Unfortunately no, I don't found a fix for it. I'm staying with Oreo for now.
I don't want to update to MIUI just to only update the bootloader and have to unlock it again. That's it the last option.

Seems a good option. Have you tried this method?
Yes, when installing magisk, you will see 'detect stock boot image...' log etc..
I installed twrp to miui 10 , without magisk it won't boot. When i changed this rom, no need magisk to boot, maybe 'Magisk already patch the boot image '
("dt2w" "network traffic" not working in this rom)

I had installed Oreo rom on Lollipop bootloader with this method. "twrp-20180106-1033.img" has touch screen freeze bug for me. Need to wait about 5mins and then, it work normally.

Short rewiev:
- The rom is smooth, but to get a smooth UI the GPU is forced to idle at 300MHz instead of 180Mhz = more battery drain
- Deep sleep not used = more battery drain
- Notification sometimes working and sometimes not
- Slow SIM activation

Hey guys,

I have 100% the same issue as jones321 has. I'm not able to flash any Pie ROM and most of the OREO Roms to mi4c. I have unlocked bootloader (old method - lollipop) an using 3.1.1.0 TWRP an [OFFICIAL][7.1.2] LineageOS 14.1 for libra/aqua ROM. I suspect that I have to install official miui Nougat ROM and ask to unlock bootloader again with official method... I tried several times & with several Miui 10/9 stable roms but I could not add my verified XIAOMI account to Unlock OEM Status via Developer setting with various errors : 90001 Cant add error or Try again later error. So it seems I'm stuck unless someone explain to me why it is not possible to flash PIE or most OREO ROMS (all with error 7 or after deleting assert lines in updater-script with infinite bootloop).

My questions are:
- do we need to unlock nougat 7 bootloader official way to use OREO/PIE Roms?
- or we just need proper boot img/kernel to be flashed before trying to install OREO/PIE Roms?

If someone knows the answer, please let us know. It would be greatly appreciated.

IMO, yes. I'm using official unlock bootloader and then flash with official twrp. In pie rom, u can't using official twrp because it's old ver (3.1.1-1).
After that, i flashed new twrp from vovan77 (3.2.3.0). It worked well.
I don't understand about old method lollipop ? What is it ?

OK. I thought you had to have unlocked nougat official way...because you managed to install the new 3.2.3.0 TWRP and we can not. I unlocked the bootloader the old way without official xiaomi unlocking service back in 2015. You just had to flash some of the old official Lollipop ROMS ...after that you could unlock bootloader via fastboot command

I t seems that Nougat / 7.0, the bootloader is locked again, with a different bit. The lock bit used up to 5.1 can be unlocked via downgrading to 6.1.7, but the lock bit used since 7.0 can only be unlocked via the official Mi Unlock procedure.

My question is if there is any way how to install Kengas PIE ROM or any other PIE ROM without officially unlocked Nougat / 7.0, the bootloader???

I was able to install Nitrogen OS Oreo 8.1 ROM which seems to be somehow compatible with [OFFICIAL][7.1.2] LineageOS 14.1 for libra/aqua. Other OREO Roms does not work for me unfortunately (bootloop)

I wish...I've tried several times & with several Miui 10/9 stable roms but I simply could not add my verified XIAOMI account to Unlock OEM Status via Developer setting with various errors :
90001 Cant add error or
Try again later error.

So it seems I'm stuck unless someone explain to me how to flash PIE ROM with unlocked bootloader (unofficial) and TWRP 3.1.1.0

If there someone who is able to flash PIE under above mentioned condidtion...please share your experience.

Thanks.
