    There's a lot of misinformation going around regarding your questions above. There is TWRP available for your phone (Xiaomi 12X, right?) and you can install Magisk through it. You just cannot install the ROM via TWRP (and you shouldn't install TWRP through fastboot - rather from within itself)...

    No, that's entirely reasonable. After almost hard-bricking my phone immediately after I got it in like April 2021 it went straight into the drawer until recovery ROMs became available. If you rely on this phone as your daily driver I wouldn't risk updating to a development beta fastboot ROM...

    That's what I did on my Redmi K40 Pro+ and it worked without a data wipe. However, since this is a development beta fastboot ROM always backup your data because there are various things that can go wrong.

    Ha, ha. Makes more sense. Goes to show how long I've not benchmarked my phones for. From what was posted here it's around a 10% increase in CPU score over the 870 though, so it's exactly as expected. (Data Point of 1, didn't run multiple tests to cherrypick.)

    fastboot boot twrp, then install twrp via Advanced -> Flash current TWRP. After it's successful you can flash Magisk from there.

    Did you try following my steps after that? You could try wiping Cache/Dalvik in TWRP. If that doesn't work you'll probably need to do a clean install to recover from that, so I hope you have backed up your data or are still able to do via recovery.

    Is there such a performance gap between 870 and 888? Getting this score on my Redmi K40 Pro+ with an 888... (Was stupid, didn't notice I was still on Geekbench 4.)

    Well, it's "safe" as in "possible". Flashing newly released beta/dev ROMs via fastboot is the opposite of safe, so make backups if you value your data.

    800318 on my Redmi K40 Pro+ (identified as a Mi11i). Have no comparison, tbh. Stopped caring about benchmarks around the Nexus 6 era. :D

    You don't install TWRP via fastboot. You do a 'fastboot boot twrp-3.7.0_12-v6.5_A12-haydn-skkk.img' and then within TWRP you go into 'Advanced -> Flash Current TWRP'.

    Dirty flashed my Redmi K40 Pro+ from MIUI 13 22.10.26. Flashed TWRP, flashed Magisk 25.2 - everything is working fine, banking apps as well. Didn't check for bugs that were not immediately obvious. I know this might be pure superstition but when working with fastboot I prefer to only ever do...

    MIUI 13 21.12.29/30 - First MIUI 13

    Thank you for that idea. Wouldn't have thought about it precisely because I was convinced this was some kind of system service not an app that could be reset - even if a system app at that. At the moment the random reboots seem to have disappeared but I haven't switched to the phone as my daily...

    MIUI 13 21.12.29/30 - First MIUI 13

    Updated my Redmi K40 Pro+, which has been in the drawer since last April due to no recovery version. Update went smooth. Initially, I got a message that 'Permissions' was crashing but this went away after a few reboots - no idea (yes, I waited for the 'completing system update' message to...

    [GUIDE][haydn] How to install Xiaomi.eu ROM for Xiaomi Redmi K40 Pro

    Yes, you can use the script for updating without wiping data (there are two scripts in each fastboot release, one is called XXXXX_fastboot_update_rom.XXX, the other one wipes the data partition, so I move/delete it in the directory to not make a mistake) and there is some complicated way of...

    [GUIDE][haydn] How to install Xiaomi.eu ROM for Xiaomi Redmi K40 Pro

    There is no recovery ROM at the moment since there is no official TWRP build for haydn. Only fastboot is supported and that is a bit wonky / dangerous, so the only thing you can use this TWRP for is pretty much rooting your phone or making backups. I would also recommend sticking to the stable...

    [GUIDE][haydn] How to install Xiaomi.eu ROM for Xiaomi Redmi K40 Pro

    Dude. You posted a screenshot, then started talking about some nonexistent M2012K11 G5 models, which would indeed indicate a alioth instead of haydn, then you said something about the Xiaomi Mi11X and in the end you said your package says Mi11i (and how should we know if you didn't buy e.g. a...

    [GUIDE][haydn] How to install Xiaomi.eu ROM for Xiaomi Redmi K40 Pro

    Well, seems OK, so indeed this ROM should work. Mind though that many people (including me) have bricked their phones when flashing through fastboot and the reasons for that are not quite understood - seems to be that some version combinations (which version you're flashing FROM and which you...

    [GUIDE][haydn] How to install Xiaomi.eu ROM for Xiaomi Redmi K40 Pro

    The photo says M2012K11G, not G5, so I have no clue where you got the G5 from. Make a screenshot of this screen to be sure:

    [GUIDE][haydn] How to install Xiaomi.eu ROM for Xiaomi Redmi K40 Pro

    Where did you buy the phone? Also, where are you getting the model information from? Maybe someone put a Pocophone F3 into a Mi11i box. Again, I would trust the box less than the proper model designation found in the phone itself. You check the model by going into Settings -> All specs and look...

    [GUIDE][haydn] How to install Xiaomi.eu ROM for Xiaomi Redmi K40 Pro

    Uhm... Probably not... First of all there's no "G5" model designation, you probably mean M2012K11 5G. That's still a Poco F3 and so on, not a device compatible with this ROM. If you want brick your phone then go ahead. ;)
