Official TWRP thread:
https://xdaforums.com/t/recovery-11-official-teamwin-recovery-project.4374117

My unofficial TWRP build:
Updated to handle A12+ encryption.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/xiaomi-odin/files/odin-twrp-3.7.0_12-1.img/download

My unofficial OrangeFox recovery:
Updated to handle A12+ encryption.
This is in the form of a flashable zip, boot into TWRP first and then install/sideload
https://sourceforge.net/projects/xi...eFox-A12.1-R11.1-Unofficial-odin.zip/download

Installation:
  • Install TWRP and reboot to recovery
  • Either copy zip to internal storage and install OR use adb sideload
  • Format data (wiping is not sufficient, formatting requires you to type "yes")
  • Reboot
Important notes:
  • Formatting data (all user data is wiped, including internal storage) is a must if MIUI was previously installed and device was encrypted.
  • MIUI 13 firmware is included in ROM zip, no need to flash it seperately.
Other notes:
  • The default camera in these builds is ANX camera. Everything is working (including 108mp mode) apart from HDR/Slowmo video recording.

The current version 0517 is great, no obvious bugs, the system is quite stable, minor issues with the ANX camera can wait for subsequent updates.
If any newcomer has finished brushing this rom, I would like to give some advice on how to improve the battery life.
After brushing.
1. modify the wifi detection parameters, you can solve the problem that when there is no WIFI outside the wall, the system will automatically switch to the phone network from the WIFI inside the wall.

adb shell settings put global captive_portal_mode 0

adb shell settings put global captive_portal_https_url https://www.google.cn/generate_204

2. it is recommended to install fridge (icebox), black threshold type of software, suppress the domestic software's self-start and background behavior, standby time will be significantly improved. I installed icebox, must be installed after the brush, through the device owner can be installed successfully, do not need to root. if you have been using a period of time, even if you delete a variety of accounts, you can no longer through the device owner way, at this time, only recovery restore the original factory, can be installed successfully.

3. display settings, select 60HZ refresh rate, and then install S20 Refresh Rate Control, mix4 can be used, set to 90HZ refresh rate, as opposed to 120HZ, in the experience of smooth picture at the same time, can save a little is a little.

btw, mix4 is really power hungry. 888 is the Fire Dragon.

Unfortunately I am unable to install this rom. I'm installing twrp and going to recovery. The computer does not see the phone to be able to throw the rom.
At the moment, I have a stable miui 13

Try it this way:
1 First enter FASTBOOT mode
2 Run: fastboot boot twrp-3.6.1-odin.img
3 When the TRWP page appears, Advanced, ADB Sideload
4 Run: adb devices, if it goes well, you can see your mix4 now
6 Run: adb sideload PixelExperience....zip

Enjoy the ROM~

In my Case, this was the only possible Methode..
1. Backup all Ur Data
2. Reflash MIUI V12 Fastboot
3. Set Up MIUI without Password Finish.
4.Settings ->developer Mode ->secure Boot disable.
5. Reboot Fastboot and flash Twrp.img via Fastboot Boot Twrpingname.img
6. Mtp activate and Transfer the Rom and the orange fox Recovery
7. Flash Orange Recovery
8. Reboot in Orange Recovery( it does auto load)
9. Flash the Rom
10. Delete Data With "yes"
11. Reboot
12. Finish
In my Case the only possible way

New build with June security patch is up.

Anyone having problems installing should check the extended update instructions in my LineageOS thread

Thank you for your help. I see the rom does not support 5G network
It most definitely supports 5G, I have 5G service on my device right now lol. Check your SIM card, I had a bug report about 5G working on MIUI but not on my ROMs, turns out that user didn't have a 5G compatible SIM card and MIUI was fake reporting 5G support.

Which is the best way to Update this Rom without delete Storage?
Just sideload ZIP and flash?
Thanks
