TWRP installation

It is important that you have a Mi 11 Pro or Mi 11 Ultra or any Xiaomi device that is UNLOCKED. You can actually always see this when you start the device and a lock appears at the top, which is open.

Before we start, it is best to make a backup, because after the update all data will be gone. There is a backup function in MIUI. Either to the cloud or on the device itself. There it is usually stored in the MIUI/Backup folder and you copy that to your PC and later back and start the RESTORE process.

1. Boot into Fastboot Mode

First you download the script that fits to your device. Then you boot your device into the fastboot. Just hold the volume down key + power key until the MITU man appears. Now connect the device to the PC. 

2. TWRP installation

Now start the installation of the TWRP on the smartphone with "install_TWRP.bat". The script tells you what to do and after a few seconds the device should boot directly into TWRP. 

ATTENTION! If the device restarts again and again, then you must first perform a wipe (delete all data). To do this, boot into the normal recovery (volume up + power button) and select the first option, then the lower option and then the device should be reset. 

Now you are in TWRP and everything is in Chinese. We first change it by clicking the second button from the bottom on the right (see photos), then on the globe and then on English.

In Android 12 / Miui 13 TWRP Versions, the injection is also needed sometimes. Please go to ADVANCED and click "Flash current TWRP". Sometimes this is needed. If you boot after the Miui installation and TWRP is not there, just use the script again and click on "Flash current TWRP". With this TWRP stay forever.

Only in Android 11 / Miui 12 -> Now we go back to the first page with the back button and click ADVANCED. This is a special feature on the Mi 11 Pro and Mi 11 Ultra because otherwise TWRP will not stay on the device. We would need to "inject" TWRP. Just click on "Onkey inject TWRP" here. Confirm everything and now TWRP will stay on the device forever.

Rom installation

You can always find the latest rom on Xiaomi.eu and it is best to download the latest rom there. From then on, you will receive the latest versions via OTA update.

How and which one is the right one? Simply go to the Xiaomi.eu page, click on Stable at the top, select 12.5 or newer and then select one of the two mirror providers. There the latest one with mi11pro_mi11ultra or mix4 in name. Top are newer than bottom ones.

IMPORTANT! Always select the one without fastboot (you notice it, because the Fastboot version has in the file name on the end _FASTBOOT written).

1. Data wipe for the first install / NO Data wipe when updating

If you install the Xiaomi.eu Rom the first time, we want to have a clean system. In this case we recommend to make a complete wipe. 

UPDATE INFO: If you want to get just an Update, install the Rom starting from 2. Firmware flash and when you are asked at the end to WIPE CACHE, click on it and reboot. All data will be preserved and nothing will be lost. 

FIRST INSTALL INFO: First we click on "WIPE" at the top of TWRP and select "FORMAT DATA" and then we write "YES" and confirm that. This will wipe the memory and your smartphone will be clean as a baby's bottom. 

2. Firmware flash

Now we need the Rom on the device. For this purpose, it is probably connected to the PC via USB and was recognized by the system. We send the ZIP Rom we downloaded from the PC to the device, preferably in the download folder. 

On the smartphone in TWRP we go back completely and click on "INSTALL" in the upper left corner, select the folder where we copied the ZIP into "DOWNLOAD" and click on the ZIP file. Now we just have to confirm the installation and the Rom will be installed. 

Done, after about 2-5 minutes the Rom is installed and we can reboot. The first boot process usually takes 5-15 minutes and then your device should be clean, fresh, new and have the latest Xiaomi.eu rom. This one even has a few advantages over the Global one, as it has all the bloatware removed, a few speed tweaks and there are a lot of translations. 

3. OTA Updates

After you have installed TWRP and the Xiaomi.eu Rom, all further updates will come via OTA. That means you get an info that there is a new update, download it and when you click on install, the system automatically jumps into TWRP mode. There it is often installed automatically, otherwise you just click on "INSTALL" select the downloaded Rom and then the installation process runs. At the end just select "WIPE CACHE" and then "REBOOT" the update is done. All data, apps and settings are retained. 

As a rule, Xiaomi.eu provides updates for as long as Xiaomi, often even longer. 

Help with errors

Nicht immer geht alles glatt bei einem Update. Wir haben hier mal alle wichtigen Fehler unserer Kunden zusammengefasst und bieten euch einfache Lösungen dafür.

1. TWRP is gone after reboot

Auf manchen Geräten ist wohl ein "INJECT" nötig. Das heißt, man muss das TWRP fest ins System verankern, sonst ist es nach dem nächsten booten wieder weg. Das ist auch nicht schlimm, da man es mit dem TWRP Script oben jederzeit wieder installieren kann, sollte man es brauchen. Da man aber mit TWRP wahrscheinlich alle folgenden Updates einfach per OTA einspielen will, sollte man es fest verankern. 

Das macht man, indem man nach dem ersten booten ins TWRp auf ADVANCED klickt und auf "Flash current TWRP". Dann wird TWRP fest ins System geschrieben und es sollte nun für immer da bleiben.

2. Can't find the Rom

Manche Kunde berichten uns oft, dass Sie auf INSTALL gegangen sind und dann wahrscheinlich, zu hoch in den Ordern gesprungen sind und jetzt die Root Verzeichnisse sehen. Jetzt fragt man sich, wie komm ich wieder zu dem Download Ordner. Ganz einfach, sucht den Ordner "SDCARD" dort ist dann euer interner Speicher abgelegt. 

3. SDcard folder is empty

Solltet ihr ein Passwort, Pin oder Muster haben und in TWRP booten und dann auf Install klicken und nichts sehen, dann empfehlen wir ins System zu booten und das Passwort, Pin oder Muster zu entfernen. Vor allem ein Muster lässt sich in TWRP nicht eingeben und verschlüsselt somit den internen Speicher. Deshalb seht ihr hier nichts. 

4. Failed to mount

Installiert ihr gerade ein Update oder eine aktuelle Rom und bekommt die Fehlermeldung "FAILED TO MOUNT SD CARD" oder andere Partitionen, dann kann dieser Fehler oft schnell behoben werden. Einfach zurück geben, auf REBOOT klicken und ins RECOVERY booten. Dann einfach die Installation noch einmal starten und nun sollte es gehen. Die Partionen wurden beim ersten booten ins TWRP einfach nicht richtig eingehangen. 

5. TWRP Password

Wenn ihr am Anfang nach einem TWRP Passwort gefragt werden, habt ihr wahrscheinlich einen PIN oder ein Passwort in eurem System. Auch wenn es ein PIN ist, wird hier nach Passwort gefragt und das verwirrt manche. Einfach die PIN eingeben und dann solltet ihr reinkommen. Der bessere Tipp ist aber, ins System zu booten und den PIN, das Passwort oder das Muster zu entfernen und dann erst wieder ins TWRP zu booten. Macht vieles einfacher.
