Unless you boot directly into TWRP after flashing and allow it to modify partitions, it won't persist.
Sounds like you missed the step of deleting the restore recovery script. I think it's named recovery.p in the root directory. Either that or you flashed an Android 9 rom recovery instead of Android 10
I am running into this exact same issue. MIUI 12.0.1.0
When booting to recovery, it goes to a black screen for a few seconds, reboots, then goes back to MIUI. I have tried LR TWRP, TWRP and Orangefox, all exact same issue.

Maybe we are trying to flash the android 9 recovery, rather than the android 10 one. Can you provide a link that I can test?

We aren't even getting into TWRP to be able to delete recovery.p unfortuantely.

Any help will be greatly appreciated

Last time I tried to help, the admin deleted my post. This is why everyone is moving to telegram. It's funny how that is the only place I can find a TWRP recovery image that works on my phone.

If you can't get recovery to load (except when stock), something is wrong with the image you're flashing. I suggest you keep trying other images till you find one that works. You won't brick your phone with a bad recovery image as you've just found out, it just doesn't load and gets replaced with stock after MIUI boots.

Hello gentlemen! i have android 9 global 11.0.3.0 pggeuxm, and bootloader unlocked. I would like to root on this phone and what the tutorial is written differently. I would ask for a specific, readable tutorial and the necessary files for how I can do it. Thanks in advance for your understanding and help. I found a video tutorial on YT, does he think you can do it?

Disabling AVB via fastboot will let you flash/boot TWRP on stock ROM. To do this, grab the vbmeta image from your stock ROM (Download firmware from the official site and extract it, it should be in it), and flash it with the following command:

Code:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
:Also To Anyone who can help.
Hi,
I will be be unlocking my bootloader shortly when the time out is up and just need to clarify one thing.
I can't seem to find my exact firmware version to "grab the vbmeta image" anywhere.
My Phone is UK version 6gb 128GB
MIUI version: MIUI Global | Stable 11.0.7.0 (PGGMIXM)
Android Version: 9 PPR1.180610.011
Security Patch: 2020-04-01

Question is does the vbmeta image have to be from the exact same firmware version or will any P firmware like the 11.0.6.0 (PGGMIXM) do the trick. :confused:

I recommend it but shouldn't be required. As far as I am aware, there are only 2 models, one with NFC (global) and without NFC (indian).

However, I am unsure about this.

Thanks theimpulson for getting back to me on this point :good:
As you have said it's not really required when using CFW method which is the way I went.
I see why you would probably need to do this if you stay on the stock Firmware though. :eek:
Anyway all sorted now with custom ROM and TWR working fine :D
Thanks so much for your Awesome work with this devices. :highfive:
It pleases me sooo much to see quality dev's working on MediaTek devices & long may this continue :victory: :victory:
If there is anything you feel I can help you guys with then just give me a mention. :highfive:

It seems I successfully installed TWRP, but I can't get access into it. I already push Vol Up + Power Button until the phone vibrated, but still booting into the ROM.
Edit: using adb reboot recovery won't take me to the recovery too
Can you help me?

In my case, I have successfully started by changing the image to be installed.
Watch following video and download image from the link from the video's summery.

I haven't installed this recovery because idk if I can still get It as after unlocking bootloader, so I want to ask, do you still get OTAs after unlocking bootloader and installing TWRP?
