Power+vol down and the phone are going in fastboot mode ! I performed "fastboot boot twrp.img" , and now, how I can install the ROM update? Where is the TWRP ?
I read somewhere to "Boot your Phone to Recovery Mode (Power + volume up)" ! If I am doing this, appear a phone picture which show me if the phone is plugged in or not! See the picture !

Try writing this : fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
and not fastboot boot twrp.img
it should go here: https://www.google.it/search?q=twrp...hWDCpoKHfM4CIEQ_AUIBigB#imgrc=KMnoTaTjhhHjdM:
I writing fastboot flash recovery twrp.img. Same result ! The phone icon when I reboot in recovery mode.
There is someone with Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 MTK version who update the ROM from twrp? How you install twrp?

I don't know how to help you, You must know how to do those things if you buy a xiaomi phone. I've installed twrp and rom on Mi4, Redmi note 3 MTK and PRO version too, but I got no issues.

These are the full instructions, see if you've missed a step:
Put the phone in fastboot mode (volume down + power)
Download adb drivers
Download twrp from twrp.me
Copy the twrp .img file to the same adb folder where you have fastboot.exe
Rename the image file to twrp.img
Shift + right click in that folder and select open command window here
Command: fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
When the flashing is finished, command: fastboot reboot
IT IS IMPORTANT TO HOLD VOLUME UP + POWER WHILE BOOTING
Phone should boot to recovery (twrp)
Put the phone in fastboot mode (volume down + power)
Download adb drivers

Copy the twrp .img file to the same adb folder where you have fastboot.exe
Rename the image file to twrp.img

Thank you ! This was the issue! After "fastboot reboot " need to keep vol+ and power pressed !
I install super su and now during type above message the screen phone become locked. ""swipe right to unlock" is writing on screen. In 5 minutes I cannot unlock the screen. I will try more!

Recovery can`t be written. I don`t know why. My bootloader is unlocked.
I also try update thru the OTA option and then manualy show on the file but get the message "Couldn`t verify update package".
What can I do to resolve that problem I realy want that LTE option were working on my device?

Ok I was successful installed the newest stable version 8.5.2. There was problem because of locked sector for recovery, so I must unlocked again. And then everything went smoothly.
There is problem with battery now. The device was drained battery in 2 days of almost no use. Is there any version which doesn't have such problems. "

Yes battery is draining because of mediatek chips and xiaomi doesnt do anything for it. Every single of my quallcomm devices from xiaomi doest have any issues with battery drain
