Why take the risk? Official Android 10 update is imminant for this model, so why not wait for that first and then see what happens next? Maybe Xiaomi will make unbricking a possibility? Unlikely, but there is always hope!

Welcome to the world of RN8P!

I think that as soon as you unlock your phone, on stock ROM, your device becomes uncertified with Google PlayStore, which then stops GPay from working. The Xiaomi.eu ROM, I believe, attempts to mitigate against this to allow the device to be certified, so in theory, root should not be required...

Oh, I absolutely agree and you are the first poster to confirm a working restore with any TWRP for RN8P. However, with no active support for this phone, I will probably stick with stock until after the official Android 10 Global OTA has landed. Then I may reconsider as root is less important to...

Good to know, but that is not Android 10.

Unlike the unhelpful guy who does not post any links to back up his claims, I do... https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=4349826312261670490 The recovery file date is 10th December 2019. Note that this is a China TWRP and may only work with the China ROM. I have no idea whether, or not, it will...

@ingbrzy When the Android 10 version of MIUI 11 finally lands for the RN7P, will it be mandatory to do a full wipe when upgrading from the latest Android 9 beta, or will a dirty flash suffice, as usual? Also, are there any ramifications for the version of TWRP being used? I currently use...

On the RN7P You should find gps.conf, using root, in /system/vendor/etc

You have made a statement, then not backed it up with any evidence! Where are the links? Where is the method? Which phone variants? Which ROMs? Does restore work?

Yes, this is a poorly named option, given the impact that it actually has. It really should be defaulted to Enabled, rather than Disabled.

It never does for me either. What I do is keep a local copy of the latest Magisk and just re-flash it after each ROM update.

There will soon be a flood of these phones on the market following the 50% off Black Friday flash sales. These phones should be properly supported by Xiaomi and by inference, Xiaomi.eu. Please do whatever it takes to get this TRWP bricking issue sorted for Android Q.

There are currently three for the RN8P on XDA, two unofficial TWRP and Orange Fox.

Version of TWRP is OK, same as mine, but I had no issues updating. The obvious answer is to restore from your latest TWRP backup and then have another go at updating... You did take a TWRP backup, didn't you?

Perfect fix for my detached BBC Weather Widget

Yes, specifically with the BBC Weather Widget, which seems to be detached from the BBC Weather App. It's very odd behaviour that I don't see on any of my other devices. I also use Nova, but I don't believe that it is a Nova issue.

Magisk 20.1 works perfectly on my RN7P with 9.10.31. Perhaps you should check XDA for the best TWRP for your phone.

The Updater for 9.10.31 actually worked for my RN7P. This is the first weekly ROM that has successfully downloaded via the Updater on my phone.

Why would the ROM flash behave any differently? The two phone models have very similar specs. I just have more RAM than you.
