      Same for me, format data as ext4 does not help. I am unable get any logs, dmesg -w on PC does not show anything, /sys/fs/pstore/console-ramoops file does not exist. I am unable to boot your recovery, sudo fastboot boot recovery.img show only mi logo. I tried to downgrade firmware, compile system by my own, many recovery images. But I am unable to boot this (and recovery from that post too). Some people on XDA have similar problem. I was using lastest MIUI 11.2 before.

        @Danct12 maybe we should update blobs, I am not sure what else to do.

          @danqo6 Perhaps you could try to flash a LOS 14.1 rom first and see if LOS loads.

            @danqo6 , from the fastboot mode, check first:
            $ fastboot devices
            330915847d15 fastboot

            then download and use: Latest TWRP

            $ fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-0-santoni.img
            Sending 'boot.img' (24844 KB) OKAY [ 0.783s]
            Booting OKAY [ 0.715s]
            Finished. Total time: 1.615s

            After Backup ALL and copy TWRP folder to Your PC,
            full format: Wipe/Format Data is needed to remove encryption

            Screenshot_2020-03-18-17-10-59.png

            After flash system.img and rootfs.tar.gz don't forget to boot again to fastboot and flash hallium-boot.img:
            fastboot flash boot halium-boot.img

                    @bisaalz Please try to flash LineageOS 14.1 (just that, don't install Ubuntu), and reboot.

                    If LineageOS 14 boots, can you try to install Ubuntu again? Perhaps this is needed first, I have not updated my device firmware for months now.

                        @ub_santoni You should tap on green tick.

                                  Hi @Danct12
                                  I followed your steps but I cannot get it working (as contrary to LOS 16).

                                      @Danct12 all LOS 14.1 roms I found works. ( ROMs before official LOS) I have twrp 3.3.1, I formatted data as ext4. I have 3GB version of redmi 4x, my LCD display was changed once. My logs seems ok, but I am unable to get even telnet working. Other my halium 14.1 devices are working fine using this method (hammerhead and kenzo). I am not sure what else to do.

                                        It would be nice to have an option to install ubports with
                                        Xiaomi tool v2, with dual boot option.
                                        Not sure it's an open project though.

                                            @maciekrz12 said in Xiaomi Redmi 4X (santoni):

                                            Failed to boot

                                            If your device's userdata partition is encrypted then unfortunately you'll have to format it, meaning you'll lose all your data.

                                            To do so, goto TWRP -> Wipe -> Format Data (the button is in red)

                                            After that reinstall Ubuntu and hopefully it'll work. If not please telnet and give me dmesg (put it on pastebin or something).
