i boot on fastboot mode
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
then : fastboot boot twrp.img but it doesn't work, then i boot into twrp, works the first time but don't see the beta rom to install. instead i have a bunch of files with numbers and letters. I already format DATA. What do i do wrong ? thx for your advices

Hi thx for your advice, I already try this but doesn't work ! i try again

 

[Aybabtu]

other problem I have, is taht TWRP don't stay, when I press volume up + and power, the phone boots to xiaomi recovery

 

[ZERK0]

i recommend to use PC with windows installed.Did you download the cutom rom or whatever rom you want to flash?if yes put the downloaded rom to your sd card...

 

[ZERK0]

ok try this,after flash TWRP dont use command fastboot boot TWRP.img,just turn off the phone,then turn on your phone

 

[Aybabtu]

already try this too, don't work and I can't activate the storage choice !

Thing is when I am finish with installing TWRP, the phone boots in Main menu Poco-recovery 3.

Who knows how to install TWRP and stable beta rom on POCO M3 ? I just don't undestand what I'm missing !

 

[geoanto555]

Download twrp
rename to twrp.
Install:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot boot twrp.img
format data
reboot recovery
(if mtp not working reboot recovery again)
copy rom to internal and flash.

Because you don't format data. But you lost all data if not backup. So i can say newest version of TWRP work not good. It encrypt internel storage that why we can't find normal data there. Wait to new TWRP version

I have the same error message when trying to fastboot boot twrp.img.
So I just pressed Volume up and Power to enter TWRP.

My problem is: TWRP does not respond, I can't touch that buttons!
Can anyone help?

When you are done flashing custom recov, but still in the stock rom and you accidentally reboot the phone.. the stock rom will over-write the existing custom recov to go back in default, so you must flash the ROM immediately after flashing custom recov.. you can flash the custom recov again and don't do the same mistakes..

I see your device is still encrypted though, first you must save the EU ROM you want to flash in SD CARD or OTG not in internal.. before flashing you must need to format data to remove device encryption and reboot to recov to proceed in flashing, don't worry your recov will not over-writed again.. and then after that wipe DALVIK, CACHES, DATA first and now proceed to flashing EU ROM.. after flashing the ROM succesfully Press Go back and Format DATA again.. then there you go reboot the system now..

I Hope that i could help you bro..

EDIT: Btw you might need other official custom recov to do all of this, like OrangeFox or PitchBlack etc.. cause TWRP in our device is still unofficial.. but it depends on you..

You can find other Recov in https://forum.xda-developers.com/f/poco-m3-roms-kernels-recoveries-other-develop.11969/

You need to format data in TWRP since yours is encrypted.
