I want to flash an RR into my Mi 4C. So I unlocked my bootloader by registering in Mi.com.
Firstly I flashed in a TWRP Rec
Code:
fastboot flash recovery ..../twrp.img
fastboot boot twrp.img
And successfully boot into rec.
Then I tried to install the ROM. After flashing it stuck on the Mi Logo every time.
Tried sideload and "install" by the TWRP but didn't work.

You can simply check your bootloader status by


Also select correct TWRP version for Mi4c, based on android version
TWRP selection is related to Android version? Could you please explain a little? When I was flashing my Nexus 6P I've never considered about Android version:confused:

After you flashed Nougat based Xiaomi rom, you can't boot on the older version of TWRP.
There is a new TWRP for nougat rom.

If you already flashed Nougat based Xiaomi rom, use the new version. You can find it in here https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/7-2-16-17.38651/

Nothing ever changed
I used this TWRP before.I flashed it in, boot the recovery, flashed in my ROM, checked clear Dalvik cache, pressed Reboot System.
The screen goes dark and never turned on. Press the power button only to realize it Reboot into bootloader.
Every time I reboot it reboot in Bootloader.:(
Plus I do a FULL wipe every time I flash in and did not work ?
UPDATE!! I flashed in a ROM in XIAOMI.EU and succeed.But why ???
Still failed in flashing in other ROMs

xiaomi.eu provides a modded MIUI. Maybe it's unofficial.
I got a weekly-update version and flashed it in and succeed.
It is MIUI 8
try this.
flash this http://bigota.d.miui.com/6.1.7/libra_images_6.1.7_20151221.0000.11_5.1_cn_b09dac70a0.tgz with MiFlash
then connect to fastboot & fastboot oem unlock
now flash TWRP for 5.1 rom https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24421527759888487
boot into TWRP & install any other rom.

for nougat based xiaomi.eu rom, read their introductions carefully https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/7-2-16-17.38651/ Don't flash TWRP for nougat rom if you still in 5.1 ( TWRP for nougat https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767135741 )

It worked! So that seems to be a bug that only exists in my 4c on MIUI based on Android 7.0 ?
THANKS A LLLLOT! :)
