people who are using custom recovery like orange fox, twrp or shrp with stock rom cant install ota directly, if they allow system modification the ota wont install or if the system modification is disabled then the ota will install but we will lose the custom recovery, so we need the ota update zip file to manually flash the update file through recovery then flash the recovery installer zip so that we dont lose the recovery, but i have no idea where to get the latest ota update link or the file. same goes for fastboot rom, where do they post the latest fastboot rom link?

The file could not be able to update my MI A3, it shows that i have "error in /sideload/package.zip (status 1)". What does that mean?

It means sideload feature is broken on Pie; for it to work you must use it on Android 10 stock recovery, only there the sideload is fully functional.

The latest firmware, 11.0.11.0 QFQMIXM is here:
https://android.googleapis.com/pack.../935d7c7259037b861c8c4192631b33bd987a259f.zip

If you can't get into 10, minimum 11.0.7.0 QFQMIXM, you must use TWRP or any other custom recovery to flash the firmware above; just dirty flash, and reboot, that's the official OTA archive.

Thanks

since my phone gets constantly disconnected and reconnected from the pc "Take bug report” Option and network monitoring would be best options for me
You can use ADB over Wi-Fi, first connect using USB and do the following:
• adb tcpip 5555
• adb connect 10.0.0.1
(change 10.0.0.1 for your phone LAN IP address)
Now you can unplug your phone USB, and use adb wirelessly.

seems like a smart idea but unfortunately i wouldn't get the time to use those command, my pc keeps connecting and reconnecting the phone like 10 times in a second. so any thing via cable is impossible even if its for a second. :(
