How to enter twrp recovery mode?

[Onitsuka]

I have Xiaomi 12s Ultra. after a very long evening battling to unlock the phone and install TWRP, I now can't install the EU rom to my device? Any ideas, how i can do that?

Also, how do you get back into TWRP, once its installed on my phone.

(Noob here)!

1. Enable "Developer options" first.
2. Settings > Additional settings > Developer options > enable the "Extended power menu" option.
3. Long press the Power button > Reboot > Recovery mode.

How to start TWRP manually if it is permanent
# restart device
# hold "power on" and "volume +"

And of course you could flash the older fastboot ROM and update later. Once you flash the EU ROM you can go into developer options and select expanded power menu so you get the option to reboot recovery once twrp is installed.

Thanks for that. I did that and it just goes to the Miui Recovery. What am i doing wrong?
Also, would that explain, why i cant copy the Thor Rom to my device?

Managed to get TWRP on phone, installed rom and now its showing me 0mb on internal storage. What have I missed?

 

[gogocar62]

I don't understand your problem.

If you installed the ROM successfully, reboot into the system.

Thats the thing, i can't get to/find the download folder. First i hAD 0MB showing in Internal Storage, but seemed to have solved that. But now i cant find my internal download folder. instead i have


acct
apex
bluetooth
(and so on and so forth).

Hope this explains a bit better

Looking through the logs, it says 'Failed to Mount'??

Sorry you are right. I bought xiaomi 12 pro CN from tradingshenzhen. I tried to unlock bootloader but just after finished the process (100%) stuck in bootloop. My phone seems to successfully unlock(?) because in order to use it i 've flased fastboot global. My phone although I've successful install TWRP can't boot in it. I can't even boot to official recovery after fresh fastboot flash. Factory reset also ends in bootloop! Very strange at all! I bought my phone

hi. which one should i use, fastboot boot or flash recovery_ab? i saw first time the second one. which one do you recommend?

 

[gogocar62]

It also depends on which device it is and which version of TWRP.

for 12s ultra. twrp 3.7.0_12-v6.5_A12-thor-skkk.img

 

[gogocar62]

If your TWRP.img file is about 104MB in size, follow the instructions above.

If the TWRP file is larger than 170MB, use the "fastboot boot twrp.img" command.
