Hello guys,
I am here with a glad news that now you can enjoy TWRP and SuperSu without sacrificing your incremental OTA's. Yes! Now you don't need to download the full ROM to flash in TWRP in our beloved Redmi Note 3 SnapDragon . This is because MIUI China Forum member BY~XM compiled a new TWRP with inbuilt feature to flash incremental OTA's. So all credits goes to BY~XM for his awesome work and please thank him on his original post. So let's get started.
Pre-requisite
Redmi Note SD version
Unlocked Bootloader
Common sense
Steps
Downlaod the Flash folder from here.
Run the Flash.bat
Now phone will boot to "ZCX TWRP"
Follow the images to set up the TWRP initially
Now you can flash SuperSu and incremental OTA's without any hustles. Use the SuperSU option under Advanced option for flashing SuperSU.
​
How to update Incremental OTA via ZCX TWRP?
1. Reboot to ZCX TWRP.
2. Go to Settings and select "support MIUI OTA".
3. Flash the full rom of the current version [Mandatory]. It will automatically back up system and boot for the OTA survival.
4. Now reboot to system and check for any update, when update releases, download it and press update.
5. Automatically device will reboot to TWRP and OTA flashing will start, this time the backed up system and boot will be flashed and thus patching will happen and your device will be updated.
Downlaod the instruction PDF from here.
Note: Step 1 to 3 to be done only while installing TWRP afterwards no need to follow those steps, when an update releases you need to follow from Step 4.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. I am getting Error 7 while flashing incremental OTA?
Ans: If you already rooted your device or you used anyother TWRP you won't be able to use this recovery for flashing the OTA's. You should install this recovery in a factory ROM. Steps to follow,
1. Flash the latest beta through fastboot method using Mi flash tool.
2. Unlock bootloader if it is relocked (usually this happens when you flash rom from Lollipop to Marshamallow)
3. Now put your device in fastboot mode and connect to the PC.
4. Run the flash.bat and go to settings and tick the "Support MIUI OTA" option. Take a back up of your EFS,MODEM and Persist if you don't have one.
5. Use the SuperSU option under advanced option (refer the images above).
6. Now use your device as normal, when an OTA update releases, just download it using the OTA and flash using updater/TWRP.
Q. I am getting error in fastboot mod or while running Flash.bat?
Ans: Ensure the device is in fastboot mode (Press Volume up + Power button) and make sure that you have installed the drivers (or Install MI FLash tool).
Q. Can I install xposed, Viper, blah blah..?
Ans: Yes! You can install anything but make sure that you use this recovery for flashing the zip files.
Q.Couldn't Restore back-up through this recovery?
Ans: Please untick firmware while selecting the restore option.
Note: Always it is advised to backup your EFS,MODEM and Persist partitions before flashing any zip files.
Q.Is this recovery can be used in any ROM?
Ans: Yes! You can use this recovery in any ROM.

If you have installed TWRP only and not root, then also MIUI incremental OTA fails. I think Supersu install systemless on MIUI 8 (Android M based) so it can be survived after OTA update. Xposed framework may be need to install again. May be not. Needs to check once next incremental update comes.

Can we flash any custom rom by this TWTP?

Can I flash this recovery from current cofface twrp ??

Go to advance setting you will see option for supersu you can also root from there..

Check disable dm-verify in settings ,it will patch boot image itself,no need for cracked boot image.

I'm on MIUI Global Stable 8.0.1 & Android Version is 5.1.1 (Unrooted). I want to root my rn3, should I directly flash this recovery by this method??

Here is TWRP 3 for the Moto Z
I decided to open this thread and make unofficial builds because the official TWRP (3.0.2) is still based on MM and will not work properly with N Firmwares and ROMs.
It should work when you flash it, but using it is still a try at your own risk procedure.
Our device comes with forced encryption and, more important,
verity which checks at every boot if /system partition has been changed or not.
If /system has been changed, verity won't allow booting your device which means
you can't flash anything unless you disable verity.
So, you must be sure to keep /system in ReadOnly mode in TWRP and don't try to alter it unless you're using a custom Kernel/boot to disable verity.
Of course, custom ROMs come with custom boot, so no worries about verity security with Lineage or AOKP for example.

My Link is TWRP recovery image

In pictures I really only installed es explorer as root needed app and I didn't mess with SuperSU anymore not sure about other's

So using this recovery and forcing to flash in systemless mode boots into ROM? Because last time I tried system mode ended up in bootloop and systemless mode dint gain any root access

First at all I really don't recommend this root method, cause I didn't test it too much
But your answers:
There's no force just flash released superSU from chainfire this will flash in systemless
Before this recovery, old official one could not install SuperSU as systemless and it was stops on decompressing ramdisk, I just fixed installation part which is only related to TWRP bug
And force system (xbin) root still makes bootloop , as I know it's not about TWRP

Is this only for N bootloader?
I am still on MM bootloader and got freezing screen on TWRP home. Could not touch/select the menu, had to flash back to official TWRP 3.0.2.

Hum yes, but should work too with MM bootloader. You can try to press power to shutdown the screen and then power or volume again to wake up and the touch should be initialized.

Ok, thats fix it. I can now touch the screen. Guess I have to do it on every boot?
Thanks for the tip.
OK I formatted my partitions in twrp and it was formatted as ext4. I read somewhere that the moto Z uses f2fs by default. Is this true and I just reduced performance of my phone because of a bug in twrp? I couldn't find an option to format as f2fs.

Perform the update without losing the root

Hi,
I would like to do the last update for the Mi A1, but without losing the root. I'm rooted with CF-Auto-Root and SuperSu is installed without TWRP. How can I do? Possible with FlashFire?
Thanks.
AFAIK it isn't possible. There is a feature in MagiskManager that lets you root the OTA update in the second slot but its not working for our device yet. The same goes for FlashFire.
Just updated today, here's what I did
- Uninstall FlashFire (prevented update from installing)
- Performed full unroot in SuperSU
- Installed update and restarted
- Used Fastboot to boot into CFAR (N2G47H.7.10.14_t1)
- Reinstalled FlashFire
- Used FlashFire to flash SuperSU zip on current slot, also used EverRoot to inject SuperSU, again on current slot.
It should flash SuperSU and reboot back into the normal system, which should be rooted.
So, I too rooted my phone using the CF-Auto-Root. I tried to unroot through SuperSU, but it didn't work. I also tried to flash the boot.img, and that didn't work either. I'm new to all of this, and I don't really know what I'm doing.
How can I actually unroot this sucker?
What do you mean by it "didn't work"? What steps have you tried? You're not supposed to flash the CFAR boot.img, instead you should use `fastboot boot boot.img` to boot into it (don't do anything after it's run, it'll automatically boot), use FlashFire to flash the zip version of SuperSU (found here http://supersu.com/download), and then reboot normally on the phone.

After the full unroot, all the apps that had access for root (eg. Viper4Android, BusyBox, SELinux, etc) will working again after the update?!
http://techintouch.it
The apps will work once the system is rerooted, but you'll need to authorize the apps in SuperSU again.
Can I use the SuperSu OTA survival mode? Maybe it works?
Ok, so here's what I did.
I followed kraatus90's guide to using CF-Auto-Root. I ran the .bat executable, and I rooted my phone. Everything works. I downloaded SuperSU from the Play Store to manage the apps.
I then tried to lock the bootloader, and got the "The system was destroyed" error. So, I had to unlock it again for the phone to function.
I went into the SuperSU app and tried to do the full permanent unroot, but all I got was "Uninstallation Failed"
So, then I went to find a stock boot.img, and got one.
Now, I don't know how to reverse what I did.
I tried booting into the stock boot.img from fastboot mode, and it looked like it worked because my rooted apps spotted working, but I wasn't able to download the latest security patch.
Those are the steps I did, and I don't know how to proceed further.
EDIT 1: So, after toying around with it some more, and trying to recover the stock.img in both FlashFire, and SuperSU, and trying to flash an external stock.img through fastboot, I think I know what the problem is.

I think that the A/B partitions are what are getting me in trouble. Do I need to change the active partition through fastboot? do I need to flash something to one of the partitions through FlashFire? What can I do?
EDIT 2: So turns out, you need to use fastboot flash boot_b boot.img, and then it'll work.
Can I flash the OTA file with FlashFire without losing root? I don't have TWRP installed and I'm rooted with SuperSu.

the easiest way to keep ota and still be able to update via ota is by simply having only magisk installed. in magisk you can activate modules for camera2 api, eis etc.
when updating just read up on the magisk tips -> OTA installation (on github, google) for A/B partiton (pixel devices):
1. uninstall magisk via manager (this restores boot image, deactivates modules) so you are able to take OTA.
2. install OTA the usual way, when step 2 is shown in OTA process, simply head to magisk manager again and press install and select "Install to second slot"
the only time this does not work is when updating to a major android update (O -> P), but then you just dont have to patch the boot image after u took the OTA and wait for either a patched image or create one yourself with magisk manager and flash with twrp

i didnt read the whole thread, but i didnt find a january oreo boot image there.
only flash a patched boot.img that is from the current build you are on.
anyway, you could try to simply boot the patched boot.img with fastboot:
fastboot boot patched_boot.img
while this may boot the system without problems, things like not being able to activate wlan could happen. because this boot image was for a different build.
however, as long as it boots the patched image, you could then simply go to magisk manager and press install direct (recommended method) - this way it will patch your stock boot image, modfying your partition directly. remember: you only "booted" the patched boot image before with the "fastboot boot" method, this will only "load" the boot.img in to memory, and will not modify your actual partition.
another way would be to just boot into twrp revovery and flash the newest magisk on your own. i'd recommend this method as you will not risk in flashing a wrong boot.img from a different build version
fastboot boot recovery.img
as long as you just boot stuff, this will only be loaded into RAM, which is a volatile memory and will be lost on a reboot - hence not modifing partitons and maintaining the possibility of taking OTAs.

For those who were on previous versions for OnePlus 3 and 3T, we appreciate your active feedback and attempts to reach out to us. With your help, we have been able to better optimize and improve several key areas. Thank you for your patience and as always, we look forward to hearing your continued feedback in the bug reporting forum here: https://forums.oneplus.com/feedback/
This OTA will have a staged rollout, the OTA will be received by a limited number of users initially and will have a broader rollout in a few days after making sure there are no critical bugs, so using VPN to download this build might not work as the rollout Is not based on regions and is randomly pushed out to a limited number of devices.
This will be the last update for these two devices and we can't thank you enough for your invaluable feedback throughout these three years. With your support, we improved Oxygen OS across three major Android versions and dozens of updates. This is not the end for the OnePlus 3 and 3T, though. Starting next week, we will start highlighting some of the great work done by the developer community, for those of you considering to have a go at Custom ROMs.
Your feedback is appreciated. Hope you enjoy and let us know how you feel about the update in the comments below.
Never Settle :fingers-crossed:

Official TWRP 3.3.1-0
ROOT: Magisk
Installation Methods
Follow the steps correctly otherwise you may brick your device. I am not responsible for any damage to your device, please ensure that your device is at least 60% charged to prevent the accidental shutdown in-between the update process.
Important Note: If your device’s Bootloader is Unlocked, then installing this firmware will factory reset your phone as this is a firmware upgrade. All your personal data and app data will be wiped clean! So backup before flashing!
Download the necessary files from the post above and follow as below.
********************* For OOS Non Rooted Users with Stock Recovery *****************
1. Download the appropriate OTA from above link and place it in the root folder.
2. Navigate to Settings > System Updates > Settings Icon > Local Upgrade & Select the OTA File
3. Once selected system would prompt upgrade now
4. Select upgrade now and system would reboot in stock recovery and flash the OTA
5. The installer would itself flash the OTA and reboot the device.
The Device will reboot and your OnePlus 3/3T is now running on the latest OxygenOS firmware & OS based on 9.0 Pie :fingers-crossed:
PS: The first boot may take some time so keep calm and wait for it to boot.
************************ For OOS users with TWRP and unlocked Bootloader************************
NOTE: This dirty flashing method is from the users who tried it and were successful. Please backup to be on safer side.
1. In TWRP, wipe cache & dalvik
2. Flash OOS Full Rom Zip
3. Flash Magisk for Root access (Optional)
4. Reboot to TWRP (to retain recovery as TWRP)
5. Reboot to system
************************ For Custom ROM Users with TWRP Recovery************************
Download the required files from Post 2
Once you have downloaded all the required files on your device, please follow as below:
Backup your phone storage contents to an external mass storage as everything will be wiped.
1. Reboot to TWRP recovery
2. Wipe Dalvik , System, Data & Cache
3. Format Data partition - system will be encrypted (this is a must else system will not boot the new Android version)
- Now your phone has been completely wiped. Copy the zip files to your phone by connecting to your PC/laptop while still in TWRP
3. Install Menu > Select OOS Full Rom Zip > Swipe to Flash
4. Flash Magisk for Root access (Optional)
5. Wipe Dalvik & Cache
6. Reboot System and enjoy latest OxygenOS based on 9.0 Pie :fingers-crossed:
PS: Do not flash partial update OTAs (under 1 GB) on a modified device! If you want to use partial OTAs, you must first flash a full OTA that it applies to, and then flash the partial OTA from stock recovery. Flashing partial OTAs from TWRP will either fail or soft brick your device. You can return to a usable state by flashing one of the above full OTA zips in recovery.

Are you sure Magisk 15.1 is fine to be flashed with Rom 5.0.1 ?
Have you tried this yourself?
There are many posts mentioning bootloops because of this magisk version

Nice someone opened a new topic.
OP3T is still a beast
My OP3T is on OOS 4.5.1. It is rooted with Magisk 14.0. I have twrp version 3.1.1-x blu spark v38 . I want to update to the latest OOS 5.0.1. Can anyone give me advice on the steps to take and which versions I need of everything? I don't want any bootloops...

You need to get blu_spark TWRP 3.2.1.x (v8.61)
And to avoid problems, I suggest you go for Magisk v14.6. I myself am on Magisk v14.6 and didn't face any boot loop. And, to be on safer side, do take backup of all your data

Hi,
thanks for this hint! Using Magisk 14.6 did the trick for me, combined with the blu_spark TWRP 3.2.1.x (v8.61) and wiping Dalvik/Cache.
After the first start, I ran the update to Magisk 15.1 directly in Magisk Manager and it also worked.
Every try befoe that led to a non starting system that got stuck in the OnePlus screen.

Download the necessary files from the post above and follow as below
PS: Dirty flash is fine if you are running a previous OOS version or any rom based on OOS, else if you come from a custom rom Clean Flash is recommended.

PS: The first boot may take some time so keep calm and wait for it to boot.
* After flash is successful go back to recovery and a wipe of cache is recommended.
* If in any case flash is unsuccessful the system would prompt you to download the full 1.4GB zip.
* Download that and follow the same process as above.
************************ For Rooted Users with TWRP Recovery ************************
Download the required files from Post 2
Once you have downloaded all the required files on you device, please follow as below

What do you mean?
If you flash the Rom and then you reboot without flashing Magisk,then you will lose the custom recovery.
In this case not only you wont be able to flash Magisk, you will have the stock recovery and you will have to start the whole process from scratch

Realme X2 Pro Root | RUI 1.0 | C.38 | Custom Recovery | Magisk Canary | SafetyNet Pass | FP

~*~ Disclaimer: I'm not responsible if you destroy your device or break your warranty. Use at your own risk! ~*~
Update your Realme X2 Pro with C.38 with System Update or download the file specific for your device CN/IN/Global and simply opening the ozip file in your File Manager. Latest RUI Updates since c27 and Magisk Canary fixes FP which used to break when rooted. Magisk 20.4 gives issues with RUI and custom roms
Official TWRP for Realme X2 Pro which is also maintained by Mauronofrio is not the same as unofficial TWRP 3.4.0 by Mauronofrio which is given below. Use only as mentioned in this post. Official TWRP has issues when flashing ozip.
​If TWRP 3.4.0 by Mauronofrio or OrangeFox Recovery for realme X2 Pro is already installed. Repeat these steps for every RUI Update. Thanks @minoccio​
Install c38 update ozip with TWRP and dont reboot to avoid bootloop/softbrick
No need to wipe any partition (Dirty Flash)
[Not recommended] Reboot only if its needed to automatically replace the custom recovery with stock by not installing modified vbmeta or not rooting the device by installing magisk.
Install vbmeta.imgwith TWRP by selecting vbmeta partition.
[This step is essential to have TWRP persistent by not getting replaced with stock recovery and also to avoid bootloop]
Install Magisk Canary - Rename apk tp zip and flash (Optional only if root is required)
Reboot to System (May take 5-7 minutes to complete booting)
Follow the below procedure to root RUI or to replace stock recovery
Make sure the bootloader is unlocked. click here for Unlock Procedure
Boot to fastboot(power off device and hold vol- and power)
Install latest TWRP or OrangeFox in fastboot with a Windows PC. Use Minimal ADB Fastboot v1.4.3
TWRP - Download: TWRP 3.4.0-0 Thanks @mauronofrio
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.4.0-0-RMX1931-mauronofrio.img
OrangeFox - Download: OrangeFox-R10.1 Thanks @Jerry08
Code:
fastboot flash recovery OrangeFox-R10.1_1-Unofficial-RMX1931.img
OrangeFox Recovery for realme X2 Pro - Download: OrangeFox-R11.0_1-Stable-RMX1931 Thanks @Jerry08
Code:
flash OrangeFox-R11.0_1-Stable-RMX1931.zip in custom recovery

Install VBMETA with Custom Recovery - To avoid bootloop or softbrick your device and to make custom recovery persistent.
Download: VBMETA
Flash Magisk Canary - Download to your device.
Download: Magisk Canary module[12.1 MB]
Rename the .apk file extension to .zip, for example: Magisk-v22.0.apk → Magisk-v22.0.zip. If you have trouble renaming the file extension (like on Windows), use a file manager on Android or the one included in TWRP to rename the file. Thanks @topjohnwu

Install VBMETA with Custom Recovery only if the Factory Recovery was replaced with Custom Recovery -
i am little confused you already said to flash custom recovery, so stock recovery is going to replace anyways.

Install vbmeta only when you replace stock recovery with custom recovery. If custom recovery is previously installed with vbmeta, they don't need to install vbmeta again.
I want to update to c28, but I'm already rooted on c27 and with Fox recovery. I need to install the newest TWRP to be able to flash the ozip, so do I only need to flash the TWRP image (over the fox image) or are there any extra steps?

You could install update just by opening the c.28 update ozip in your file manager.
You could also install twrp and update to C28 but anyway your custom recovery will get replaced with stock recovery. Again you will be required to install custom recovery if necessary.

I remember reading that you can't install the ozip via file manager method if you have a custom recovery, are you sure it can be done safely?
I updated from c27 rooted to c28 rooted without reinstall twrp. My procedure:
install UNOFFICIAL 3.4.0 TWRP by Mauronofrio (official 3.4.0 doesn't work for this) -> install c28 ozip (within twrp) -> install vbmeta.img - > install magisk 20.4 (if you want to retain root). Only reboot at the end of procedure

Yes when you have custom recovery then you cant install ozip directly from file manager but when you click the ozip in file manager, it takes you to custom recovery if not de-bloated and its completely safe

Yes you are right, the custom recovery stays only if modified vbmeta is installed if not gets in bootloop.

Mostly you dont need to install vbmeta again since vbmeta and recovery partitions are technically different. if it bootloops then install vbmeta.

Just flashed from stock yesterday. It's running fine, still have some bugs, extra features not working but that's not a big problem, can use as daily rom. And it's an initial build, can be improved in the future
Hi,
1. Which gapps are you using? NikGapps basic and BiTGapps are both failing signature verification on Lineage recovery. Even accepting this, the installation fails. Magisk 21.4 fails signature, but installs and works.
2. While we have these conditions (Unofficial build, no recovery decrypting the internal storage) can you consider building a Gapps version?
3. Can we flash SHRP zip when booted to Lineage recovery (via apply update)?
Thanks.

2. Most likely he won't build a Gapps version. He's aiming to go official and crDroid is against gapps build in principle. I may be wrong tho.
3. NO. Flashing any other recovery through LOS one WILL BRICK your device! Don't try it!

1. I don't use gapps so can't help with that.
2. crDroid doesn't support built-in gapps so no, maybe another ROMs have them.
3. Didn't try that. I think it's safer to flash recovery img to inactive slot via fastboot and flash recovery zip from there, should install recovery to both slots.

oops it doesn't exit yet my bad
Since the rom uses its on first time setup it doesnt ask me for my google credentials to restore my google backup.
Can I force that somehow ? I can only see my Backups in Google drive but can't restore from em.

After flashing & following the instructions, Flash the 'NickGapps Stock zip' from the recovery. That should solve your problem & you will get the default 'Google Setup', that will allow you to restore you filles & settings.

Hello sir, hope you are well in the pandemic.
I'm using your rom for some time & loving it.
But, i like to indicate some cons & problems that i have faced.
First of all, in the "Installation Process"
in step 9, there should be a line added. As mentioned no twrp recovery can emulate the internal memory.
Solution: User should flash the 'LineageOS recover.zip' using the adb sideload. (entering twrp recovery, then advance, then adb sideload. Connect phone using usb, flash the zip file from the PC using SDK platform tool, command - "adb sideload <file name>". I think most of the noobs maybe having trouble, like me .)
Second, After using the OS for about sometime i have noticed some bugs (problem).
1. some error (Force close) in some apps.
2. The auto screen off doesn't turn off the display until i manually turn it off by pressing power off button. (i've tried both turning on/off always screen & ambient display, but doesn't have any effect.)
3. Video streaming gets laggy (my network is fine & the lagging happens always.)
4. The Cast tile doesn't work.
5. The bugs mentioned above by the other users above.
Sir, i love your work very well. Its a cleanest & a well furbest OS for Mi A3. I believe if you give some effort to this OS it could be the best of all. I will keep you posted for more bugs.
Peace
Used for two weeks, no trouble.
Waiting for updates.
New build is up.

Did you flash LineageOS recovery zip right after flashing ROM as it is said in update instructions? If not, switch A/B slot from fastboot, reboot to recovery and flash LineageOS recovery.
