Revert Back to MiUI 8 (based in KK) from MM and Viceversa - Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers

I am currently in MM, i want to go back to MIUI to try MIUI8 Global beta. I have one twrp back for MIUI7, but when i flash that from recovery (twrp 3.0.2), it shows error. Then i tried with twrp 2.8.7. but same error.
Now when i go back to MM by restoring the MM roms from TWRP recovery, phone is not unlocking even if i am entering the correct pattern. First i flashed revert back to TWRP 3.0.2, then tried to restore the back up MM roms.
I also tried to flash new MM roms, but the SIM and Wifi is not detecting.
Is there anyway that i can flash ROM. I don't think my phone is bricked, but somehow there was some error happened while i flashed MIUI backup from TWRP 2.8.7.
Device name Redmi2 2014818

Exactly. Just flash the TWRP recovery and you will good to go.

you may try flashing miui 7 rom from fastboot then install miui 8 from recovery ( from update > choose update package)

Flash phillz recovery by jav team and boot up in recovery then-clean to install a new rom-and flash miui 8 kk ROM it will successfully flash the ROM and will restore original firmware and ur good to go...phillz recovery will give no error while flashing...
Some times twrp gives an error by saying that its a ROM for 2014811 and u cannot install it on 2014818 better use phillz for flashing miui ROMs...
I hope this method will help u.

hydrogen os..twrp

i am using the latest hydrogen os..marshmallow...
but i can't restore previously backed up cm13 with the twrp used in installation of hydrogen os.....so i tried flashing normal twrp with fastboot....this led to not even getting to the recovery...i was stuck in the boot logo
so..i again flashed the hydrogen based twrp and tried flashing cm13 with it...but it didn't work either...
so guys...how can i use another rom..with my condition...i can't flash neither recover previous image...
help guys
Try flashing the latest community version of Oxygen OS first with the modified TWRP.
Then flash the stock recovery of Oxygen 2.1.2.
Now flash stock Oxygen 2.1.2 with the stock recovery.
Now you can flash the normal TWRP and restore CM13 image.
PS- I didn't try all these. But I think it should work.
This might help
I found a hybrid TWRP that claims to be compatible with Hydrogen. Oxygen, Vanilla Marshmallow etc., made for the OP2. Here you go.

With that you might be able to get into recovery again and install whatever OS you like. I found this searching for the TWRP decryption problem.

Clean Restoration to Stock MIUI from Custom Marshmallow ROMS

Custom ROMs are awesome! But sometimes, you need to get back to stock MIUI. But you cannot directly flash the MIUI rom. Eventhough, if you have made a backup of stock miui, you ll face problems while restoring back from marshmallow based custom roms. You will get an error as " extractTarFork() process ended with ERROR 255 ".
Dirty Solution:
In TWRP, mount all partitions
Go to restore, and untick only "firmware"
Restore everything; and wipe cache, dalvik cache
Reboot system
Clean Solution:
Now from above solution eventhough you ll come back to miui, but while updating through updater app, you ll not be able to flash the OTA files. This happens only on some devices. If you are facing this, you need to follow all the above steps of dirty solution. Additionally, download fastboot rom, and flash using "Flash all", which will wipe your data and internal sd card data too.

How do I install any other ROM on Redmi 2 Prime currently running MIUI 8?

I am currently using MIUI 8 and i hate it.
I want to go back to Resurrection Rom. But the problem is when installing, i think i used wrong command and flashed the boot image (fastboot flash boot).
Now if i install any ROM other than MIUI 8, it does not work. Goes into bootloop. I can boot into TWRP recovery using fastboot. But after successfully flashing my Resurrection Rom, the phone starts, MI logo appears and it reboots again after a screen flicker.
Please advise on how i can install Resurrection Rom again. Also i can only boot into recovery using TWRP 3.0.0, any other recovery like Stock, Philz (CWM) are not working. I can only boot into recovery using fastboot boot twrp3.0.0.img command.
Thanks

I edited the question. I can only boot into twrp 3.0.0, all other versions, other recoveries are not working.

If fastboot method is not working for 3.0.2.0 version then ,Just try to flash t.w.r.p 3.0.2.0.img (download from here)by flashify or rashr app.Then reboot in to recovery and flash any custom rom.
u can also flash recovery image file by your existing recovery.
And why using only fast boot command?U can boot to recovery by updater app or button combo.

How to flash miui using twrp?

Hi!
I have my device a few days ago and I wanted to flash globerom (alias smiui), but when I tried to flash it in twrp it gave me strange installation logs and when it finished it killed everything except fastboot (I couldn't boot into system, recovery and the power-and-volumeup mode) I flashed twrp again and restored my old backup and than it fixed everything, but when I tried to flash a newer miui (the one can be downloaded from miui.com) it did the same. So what can I do than?
I don't want to do flash in fastboot, because a corrupted fastboot package killed my previous redmi
Is there any risk less method to flash miui roms in twrp?
Thanks for all the answers in advance!
P. S. : Cm13 worked well
I prefer flash a fastboot MIUI ROM compared to a recovery MIUI ROM

Without PC....
1)Flash stock recovery(search it in xda) by rashr/flashify/t.w.r.p.
2)Rename the ROM file by "update.zip" and place it in the root (best is outside of any folder)of internal memory.
3)reboot in stock recovery.
4)wipe user data (not all data )
5)select update.zip from stock recovery.
I flashed miui ROM by this process many time .But. It is best to flash miui ROM by fastboot..
I tried to flash stock recovery but it stucks on mi logo while flashing through flashify

Did u try it from here.It always work with me.Or you have to search for a compatible stock recovery with ur model for flashing global miui ROM(without PC).
I tried this but it didnt workd
easy..!! flash twrp whichever build you were on.. reboot to twrp, wipe system, data, caches then flash miui8 any official build, you may get error 7 then go back and mount everything choose reboot to recovery again and flash miui8 this time it will be installed showing flashing firmware.
do caches wipe then reboot. done..!!

Stable MIUI, without Computer, Use Xiaomi.eu ROM for your device, they are zip which can be flashed easily with twrp 3.0 !! It's Pure MIUI with some more feature, also it gets update every Friday.
