How To Guide TWRP 3.7.0_12 for VEUX/PEUX

[Ritik17]

You got my point wrong. There is nothing wrong with unlock the bootloader, but the permission & privacy concern needed to UNLOCK the phone. I've used & rooted many different brands of Android phone since 2011. Only this Xiaomi (for me) requires an account binded with an active SIM & 7 days wait to unlock bootloader. I think you probably know it is considered illegal to use VPN or bypass CCP's firewall by any other means in China? Why does Xiaomi need users to bind an active SIM to an Mi account and waiting for 7 days to simply unlock a bootloader? It's just simply wrong by enforce this and its probably written under EUA that most of users didn't aware of.

It binds to Mi account and the IMEI code of your device and it helps them deal with specific things with after sale services.

They are giving you an option to UNLOCK the phone, something that some brand don't even allow at all.
If you unlock, you break the warranty. I think that is more than fair to let them known that YOU decided to break the terms of warranty and have the device as you intend to use...
But if you have any issue with it, then don't blame Xiaomi for that.

If you unlock the bootloader, install a ROM and after that your device explode... is fair that Xiaomi can say: yeah, he have unlocked the bootloader, so is not our problem. No?

Your privacy points are, again, misplaced and nonsense.

Also: you don't need a SIM in the phone. Only a MI account.

It asks you to add the account and device in the Mi account status with mobile data.

Hello,
I have some problems trying to install the recovery. Firstly when I try the direct approach ¨fastboot flash boot (recovery.img)¨ the device enters in a boot loop, even if I try to reboot into recovery the error says ¨(Status read failed No such device)¨ or (Too many links).
I tried to just boot into the TWRP.img and it fails to boot and the message says ¨(Too many links)¨.
Anyone has a solution/guide for this?

I have the exact same problem. Please, we both need help. I search for solution in different forums about this two errors (Status read failed No such device)¨ or (Too many links) and nothing helps

Download the archive below, unzip it, throw it into this recovery folder. There is a file there START.exe , launch it, you'll get right where you need to. To start, type the command fastboot devices
If you learn the smart serial number in response, then try to flash the recovery. If there are any mistakes, make a screenshot of the screen and throw it here

After typing the comand "fasboot devices" I put "fastboot boot (name of the.img" and then this appear

And if you carefully read the first post? Especially with regard to the command to install recovery I even posted a screenshot of the installation there.

 

[Vaderihg]

Oh! Sorry for the annoyance. You mean this code: fastboot flash boot (the name of the recovery).img
I will try and if there is any problem i would make a screenshot

Okey, i did this and then this error appear

Update:
Apparently the error was caused by not having the bootloader unlocked, which is false, because it was already unlocked. The command worked correctly, but when I exited fastboot and tried to enter the recovery with the volume up and power button, my phone went into a constant boot of the MIUI logo screen. I reinstall the MIUI stock ROM. What can i do?

Reflash Miui and try again

Is the same problem as always. Any alternative solution? There is other user of this topic does have the exact problem.

There are no other solutions. Recovery is perfectly installed and works, believe me.I've already put it on dozens of times. Look for the problem in yourself.

Extract the vbmeta.img from the fastboot package of the rom and flash it after twrp

Actually i have the stock ROM, you mean first install the TWRP and then flash it (if it gets stuck) with the stock ROM does not have the vbmeta.img in, right?

Extract vbmeta.img and flash just that if your device is stuck in a bootloop.

fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

First I install the TWRP

One detail I want to mention is that, when I install TWRP, my xiaomi goes into bootloop. The factory logo appears, but without a lock (as if it was not unlocked, which is wrong).

Then i flash de vbmeta.img like you say

Note that the vbmeta.img was extracted from the Xiaomi factory ROM, but mi xiaomi keeps in bootloop. Any other solution? Honestly, I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong and why this is happening to me :/

If you have the stock ROM then try flashing that to boot in an attempt to get back to a working phone.

Now I'm wondering if you have the right device. What soc is your device using? This thread is about "veux" aka Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G with Qualcomm Snapdragon 695.
