After the release of TWRP modded by skkk (with A12 decryption support), last week Nebrassy released an unofficial version of TWRP with A12 decryption support.
Nebrassy is the current official maintainer of TWRP for the POCO F3, his unofficial TWRP version is open source and, at least for me, this version of TWRP is more trustworthy.
I decided to install TWRP-3.6.2-alioth-Nebrassy-24-06-22.img over the default recovery of PixelOS to finally make a full NANDROID backup of my device before trying new ROMs (or new updates).
Currently I'm on the last PixelOS version (the 20 Jun 2022 release). To install TWRP-3.6.2-alioth-Nebrassy-24-06-22.img I followed those steps:
If you are using a rooted device, after installing TWRP you have to install again Magisk (from TWRP is working as usual).

- you need a PC with working ADB / platform-tools / fastboot utility (commonly a Windows PC)
- download the correct TWRP from this link (the link is mentioned here)
- move from the download folder the file TWRP-3.6.2-alioth-Nebrassy-24-06-22.img to your platform-tools folder
- restart the phone into fastboot mode and connect the phone with a USB cable to your PC
- from the platform-tools folder, open a CMD command prompt and run the command "fastboot devices": you should see a device plugged in and connected
- from the terminal, run "fastboot boot TWRP-3.6.2-alioth-Nebrassy-24-06-22.img"
- your phone will start in TWRP recovery only this time
- to make TWRP your permanent recovery, go to "Advanced > Flash Current TWRP" then reboot
