INFORMATION Anti-RollBack

This is guide to check if you're affected by anti-RollBack or not.

👺1 step : Try Flashing TWRP/CUSTOM RECOVERY by this command
FASTBOOT FLASH RECOVERY xyz.img
(Press shift+left (win10 only) click, in pc recovery folder)

👺 2 step: There will be two scenarios
A) Flashed successfully
B) Error Anti-Rollback

(In case of B, don't do anything except, newer versions from Current Miui Rom)

👺 3 step: If you can't flash recovery and want to flash new version of Miui 10, simply use below command to use TWRP (it is one time solution and have to repeat everytime, if lost twrp)
FASTBOOT BOOT xyz.img

👺 4 Step: Don't be over-smart, it will cause HARD-BRICK and in some cases 10K rupees.

So keep patience, we're all affected, and will fight. Also looking for unofficial BYPASS (yes it is possible)

So keep calm and connected with community.

Update 9.6.1.0 and later to 8.7.5 have anti-rollback system and can not go back or flash twrp. There are cases of brick for trying to put a previous rom and you can not flash twrp either.

Matt:
i rebuilt lineage OS today, i dont know if it will help

in case anyone wants to test

#lineage

Latest LineageOS full ROM test build. Includes cherry picks not yet merged from gerrit.

If you test, please do full wipe first (system, data, dalvik, cache), then flash, then boot.

I've made an Magisk module with the latest Mi 8 GPU drivers from the 8.7.26 developer rom of the Mi 8.
Drivers are dated from 12th July
