Is there any TWRP available for Mi Pad 3? I saw the weekly rom available for this model but how can we install it without a proper TWRP?
 
I have the same question. I've already tried to flash the zip with the updater but the image isn't signed.
 
Already flashed the cappo twrp. But it has bricked my mipad 3 times. I have no touch problems, this works. But every time my system does not mount.
At least there is some development, we need to be more patient.

Yep :)
 
Guys, I did it!

I had no problems with the touchscreen, so there was nothing to solve for me. My Bootloader was also unlocked already.

Here is everything I did (be careful, this deletes all your data!):

Boot into fastboot (Volume down+ Power on, hold the Volume down-Key until fastboot loads)
Code:
fastboot -w
fastboot erase system
fastboot format system
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

Boot into TWRP (Volume up + Power on, hold the Volume up-Key until TWRP boots)

WIPE -> Data -> Repair or Change File System -> Resize File System

Flash xiaomi.eu-zip normally (hopefully) enjoy!
 
You McGuyvered it, I will test this as well and post my findings.
Did you copy the xioami.eu-zip when you were in twrp?
 
Did you successfully flash xiaomi.eu custom ROM with the provided twrp?
Please explain the steps you did.
 
I did the exact same steps as Mcgyver85 did. Except i didn't find my zip when I Copied it. So I've put it on a USB stick and used a OTG cable.
After install did another clear cache and Dalvik.
 
I flashed my Mi Pad with the reported procedure and it was successfully.
Thanks for the support and your hard work.

Yes, I copied it with MTP and the Windows Explorer.

Okay installed minimal ads and fast boot tool on W10 machine. Next I need to be able to tranfer files. Connected mipad and driver was installed automatically. Three options are given; I chose for MTP but nothing happens. Enabled developers options and usb debugging and/or usb theaterring but no difference.
When I check under device maanager I can see portable device MTP USB Device and driver is from Mircosoft and up to date. Beside that I have Android Composite ADB Interface.

Where and when (see list of fast boot commands) I should copy the TWRP file? Thanks for advice; has been already some year ago I did all this on an old Sony phone.

ok, friend of mine installed also the Xiaomi.eu Rom with TWRP, but same problem with Play Store like before. Loads and says Waiting for WLAN. So no solution for that?

McGyver strikes again! This looks very promising, though I seem to be stuck at miui loading screen. Had no problems with touch in twrp

Hi people, I guess I need some help here.
My MI Pad 3 is not detected by the Unlock aplication. It's in Fastboot mode, and appears as Lenovo Composite ADB interface in PC. So, why is it not detected to unlock???? I don't get it... I try with a Redmi 4 and it was detected imediatly...
Some advice?

Thanks.

EDIT: Forget it - drives issue.
