Twrp Install Problem On Mi4c - Solution

[Jónap]

Hi guys,

I have received my Mi4c with locked bootloader but have unlocked with fastboot and MIflash. I have installed the eu rom with no problem, but every time i tried to install TWRP ( with fastboot or installer app) run into the same problem: After restart MI recovery come back.

After many unsuccessful tries i have find a solution:

1. Download TWRP flash image (.zip) into any folder of the phone
2. Boot the phone into fastboot mode ( vol- + power)
3. Boot the phone with fastboot command into TWRP ( fastboot boot twrp.img)
4. Install the previously downloaded TWRP image with the running TWRP to the phone ( in TWRP click 'install' and select the .zip file)
5. Restart

After this i have a succesfully installed TWRP and MI recovery is no longer coming back.

I hope that this helps for someone who has the same problem.

Without verification by Xiaomi, how? Using XDA guide?

Yes, XDA guide worked for me but ADB (Fastboot) has to be installed on your Windows PC. Use "adb-setup-1.4.2.exe".

Good luck!
