[Willdabeast37]

Hello,

I have a Redmi K20 Pro that been having some issues and i accidently wiped the OS through TWRP. and now i cant seem to install the MIUI beta. i was gonna see if anyone can guide me through reinstalling MIUI on my phone so i can get it working again. i still have TWRP i just cant install it from the PC cause my pc wont register the phone. any help is welcome. thank
P.S i know nothing about rooting and twrp so im a rookie at this. and also if i posted in the wrong area, i apologize.

What does it mean??? If you already have TWRP, boot to it (hold "Vol+" and "Power" buttons simultaneously) and if you use a good USB-C cable (allowing data transferts) and if MTP is enabled in the "Mount" menu, then you should be able to transfert files.

Can you confirm you can transfert files?

And what's inside "Internal Storage" in the Windows explorer?

Please check if "MTP" is enabled in TWRP...

Use "Format data" button in TWRP (in "Wipe" menu) then go in "Reboot" menu => "Recovery".

You should be able to transfert files after that.

Do you know how to execute fastboot commands? Boot your device in fastboot mode (hold " Vol - " and " Power " buttons simultaneously).
fastboot format:ext4 userdata

You should also try to flash another TWRP, try the latest Official TWRP => https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=2188818919693777991
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.5.2_9-0-raphael-TeamWin.img
