Need help.
Today I attempted to install twrp to my kenzo.
Adb devices is successful.
But the following step failed.
fastboot flash recovery recoveryAlkaUpdate.img
It says "waiting for any devices".

have you unlocked the bootloader?

Yes, I did via official way and I believed it was successful.
Do you know any command to check this?

did you closed mi flash tool? or mi unlock tool? try reboot your computer and retry again.

boot phone into fastboot mode,

I unlocked my phone a few weeks ago.
I will reboot my pc and try again.


Yes, I went to fastboot mode once to test the "fastboot reboot" command.
It was successful.
But I did not try the fastboot flash recovery because the "steps" in the first page did not say that I have to go to fastboot mode.
Furthermore, while in fastboot mode, the adb command is not recognized (adb devices not working).

for flashing twrp you'll need to use fastboot mode. adb only works when phone is booted and usb debugging enabled.

I see, so inbetween these 2 steps below, I need to go to fastboot mode, correct?
5. You should see connected devices in the list.
5.1 Boot to fastboot mode
6. Then to flash twrp, type

ah typo in the guide. thanks for highlight it.

btw and yes, you'll need to reboot your phone in fastboot mode, then use the command

I did this just now. I guess it went fine.
But then when I used Vol Up + Power Button, I did not go into TWRP.
Instead I reached to a black page with a smartphone picture.
Any idea?

I ran in fastboot mode, it showed device unlocked true.

Here is the steps I took.

try use other twrp instead, such as official twrp or with f2fs support.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note...-redmi-t3352966

try this,

after finished flashing custom recovery,
- do not boot the phone yet
- instead unplug the usb cable
- press and hold vol+ and power button until device reboot. On Mi logo release power button until and release vol+ after it booted into custom recovery.

Glad to report, your method works fine.
Thanks a lot.

Happy to help. Are planning on installing custom rom? I myself currently running resurrection remix rom.

u guys able to run Floatify on MIUI 8 ?

I wanted to ask you guys that how long gemfive takes to refund? It is almost 1 month or plus since I returned rdn3 pro as it was Kate edition. They said 2 weeks back that they bank in and it would takes some days to clear. I bought through aroma, still she haven't receive the amount. Any suggestions on what I should do?

I also didn't get yet

Is there any easy method to update without breaking my Custom Kernel and Root when updating? I'm running Xiaomi.eu ROM weekly. I'm too tired to wiping everything and flash new rom every week just to gain root access for my kernel.
