Greetings everyone.
Yesterday I was greeted with the update prompt even though my device has an unlocked bootrom (which is strange considering Xiaomi said it won't work on unlocked devices) but I did it anyway. Device works normally plafter the update but I obviously lost root access and TWRP. I re-installed TWRP but it now shows Data partition as "encrypted" and won't show any files (can't reach Magisk to complete root). I was able to mount a folder to transfer Magisk zip file and installed it, but then phone got stuck on boot logo.
I reflashed firmware with MiFlasher and installed TWRP again, phone works normally even though it still can't see Data partition since it's encrypted. As soon as I install Magisk as a zip or from Advanced Menu on TWRP, it goes back to being stuck.
I attempted root via patching boot.img file and it didn't work, flashing a clean boot.img returns phone to normal but without root.
Any idea what could be wrong and how to fix it? When I first got the phone, I didn't have to do anything other than unlock bootloader, TWRP and Magisk. It worked like a charm before and repeating TWRP and Magisk after a monthly update didn't give these problems.
In case it matters, I'm using the Global (Taiwanese) firmware. Exact version is 1.0.1.0.UMATWXM.
Any help is deeply appreciated.
