Can't access TWRP (eu 8.8.3)

[kam1linho]

Hello,
I'm having a weird issue and I've been trying to cope with it somehow for long time, but with no luck and I decided to ask here for help.
My current rom is weekly 8.8.3. With the newest build deployed a couple of days ago, I decided to move to 8.10.11 so I downloaded TWRP for Polaris from https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=50678
I use Minimal ADB & Fastboot 1.4.3

I gave the permissions upon connecting the phone to the PC, USB debugging is on
When the phone is launched in a regular way:
-"adb devices" lists the device
-"adb shell ls /sdcard" returns data
-Android Device is displayed in device manager
When in fastboot
-"fastboot devices" recognizes the device
-Android Device in device manager

But:
"fastboot flash recovery twrp.img"
"fastboot boot twrp.img"
results in rebooting the phone

In addition, when I try to go to recovery from updater app, it behaves in the same way - just reboots

What's wrong?

Thanks in advance

The problem is the TWRP you are using, it doesn't work with Pie based ROMS. I'm using the v10 recovery from xda developers. https://forum.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-mi-mix-2s/development/recovery-twrp-mix-2s-t3790922

A full wipe is necessary, do a back up.
