I also had that problem but it is easy to solve. First go to twrp>wipe>advance wipe>data. From here change the file system to Ext2. Then format it. Then again change file system to Ext4 and then format again. It should be solved.

Thanks for this

Scratching my head here - perhaps a noob question, but... I successfully unlocked the bootloader on my Redmi 4A

Now I've completed the following:

C:\adb>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
target reported max download size of 535822336 bytes
sending 'recovery' (33052 KB)...
OKAY [  1.047s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [  1.134s]
finished. total time: 2.184s

After doing so, I ran:

adb reboot recovery

When it reboots in recovery, what comes up is Mi-Recovery 3.0 - not TWRP. What am I doing wrong?

Follow this, it worked for me
Many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install.


Or after flashing recovery do not reboot and instead use this command

fastboot boot recovery.img

Then you will have temporary TWRP. From there wipe DATA and then again flash TWRP. Both these process worked for me.

I was on stock miui.
Unlocked bootloader.
rebooted to fastboot
flashed as described
booted to recovery via "fastboot boot twrp"
wiped data+system+cache
flashed twrp image again
flashed Lineageos
now no recovery again!
am i missing anything?

Update:
I have downloaded 3.2.3.0 and somehow it is now resting on to recovery partition successfully.
Though I'm unable to backup the data partition via twrp, I'm still satisfied that at least I have custom recovery now.
Thank you again.
