Yes, this method also worked for me, however - the iodé recovery v4.10 was not updated to version 4.14.

With the installation of **iode-4.14-20240724-cepheus-fastboot.zip** and **iode-4.14-20240724-cepheus-ota.zip** , I received the same error message each time:

A “Factory data reset” does not force a better output length, but leads to the identical error again.

**This error is systematic** , because it also occurs with [other iodéOS devices](https://community.iode.tech/t/google-pixel-3-iodeos-5-3-updater-keeps-stopping/2825) and also with other CustomROM Android distributions, for example with /e/OS and LineageOS 21.0 for microG and finally also with LineageOS 21.0.

The LineageOS Android distribution is the source code producer. This provides the basis for soft forks such as /e/ and iodéOS and LineageOS-for-microG. The cause of the incorrect installations is the recovery. The blind trust in the LineageOS source code and untested iodéOS updates then leads to a frustrating iodéOS user experience.

**For the successful installation of iodéOS v4.14 for the Xiaomi Mi 9,** I used the recoveries TWRP-cepheus-A14\* and OrangeFox-cepheus-A14\* recommended by crDroid Android Project. The installations went through without a hitch.
