Help Please!! I think I bricked my phone. - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

I was using Unofficial Cm13 (kenzo optimized) rom, then I decided to go to miui8 global stable. So, I flashed MIUI8 .zip file using alka twrp.
But after flashing it, my phone didn't boot into system. Mi logo flashed twice with vibration, and that's it. Now I can only go to fastboot mode only.
And when I try to flash fastboot rom using mi suit, it says, " try to connect in normal mode first, then switch.
Please help.!!

Hello, sometimes after installing the new rom the phone slowing on first boot.. try to get on recovery again and then do all format. after this flash the rom. The best way to flash the rom secure is to try fastboost method!!

Actually, I am unable to get on to recovery. When I press power+ volume up button, it vibrates, mi logo appears for a second, and then it goes and what is left now is blinking red led light. Also, If I boot into fastboot, and and connect my phone suing usb, The mi pc Suits says, "try to connect in normal mode first, then switch"

Thanks for the support. But I am unable to try this method. because the fastboot download speed is very low.

After my phone enter edl mode, i just simply flash it using miflash beta for windows 32 bit due to urgent situation. I still on personal trip during when this situation happened and can't access my pc and laptop.

You could just have rebooted ur phone to fastboot mode and unlock the bootloader using mi unlock too to make the phone workl
It would have been way easier

Unfortunately, my phone already entering diagnostic mode during that's time. Did miflash unlock can solved it?
Thoght that i am missing one important step after flashing those miui eu rom. Reboot to fastboot prior the phone reboot into system and unlock the bootloader.
Anyway, thanks for your info.

Describe your issue more specifically. Did you unlock bootloader? Which recovery you were using? What was the ROM you were updating to and from?

Bro you don't need to go to fastboot mode you are already in the edl mode.
Just download the fastboot rom of the latest miui rom and extract it. Use mi flash tool and browse and locte the image folder of the extracted rom.
Connect your phone to the computer and press refesh button on the mi flash tool. ( Keep in mind to disable device driver signature inforcement in windows). Your deveice would be seen in the flash tool as COM ...... now select the flash all option and then the flash option. After the installation ends your phone would most probably reboot itself, if not unplug your device and long press the power button for at least 15 seconds. Now your phone will boot with a mi logo ajd wait for at 30 mins. Report back the results.

Can you tell me a way to unlock the boot loader through fastboot...
Press down + power to go to fast boot, insert usb cable phone to pc, open miflash app (download it here http://en.miui.com/thread-272376-1-1.html), select any fastboot rom version (Here is an example, http://en.miui.com/thread-543021-1-1.html , download fastboot rom for redmi note 3 pro, after downloading unzip the file if you see weird extension file just replace it to .zip and extract to see the files). After selecting the fastboot rom directory on miflash, make sure that your phone is detected as a fastboot device (if you can't see anything on the list on the app, recheck the connection), then select save user data on the bottom, then flash if there is an error, select clean all on the bottom then flash. Wait for the flashing to finished.

This guide above is to return back your phone to a working MIUI.
If you just need to unlock bootloader to flash twrp/custom recovery, then Unlock it via official method
http://en.miui.com/unlock/
- Download mi unlocker
- Open it, then login with your Mi account (Prefer to use your phone number in username)
- Reboot to fastboot mode (vol down + power), connect usb phone to pc
-The app will detect your phone once connected, then proceed on unlocking by clicking the button.
-Wait for it to finished
BTW, the guide above is specifically for redmi note 3 quallcomm/sd/pro, if you have different device, please look for your right fastboot rom in the list in the given thread. Good luck!

what file did you pasted inside the rom folder? something like a unlock file for bootloader?
Maybe that's the thing why it didn't worked. The steps always work for me whenever I got into something.
Also, are you sure that you've downloaded the right fastboot rom for your device? Are you on redmi note 3 pro too?

REDMI NOTE 3 Complete Dead!!! Only Red Light Blinking

Hii Friends,
I am new to xda as i got an problem with my Redmi Note 3.
Specs Before Dead:
Miui 8.2.4
Android 6.0
32 Gb Rom,3 Gb Ram
I was trying to flash Android 8.0 Rom via Twrp {Flashed Through Mi Flash Tool}. Twrp Flashed Successfully and Then I started with flashing with Oreo Rom.It also got flashed successfully but the problem I think is I forgot to flash Lazy Flasher due to which the phone booted but was lock even though i entered the right password It started to reset the phone. Then the phone turned off never revived from there.
As I tried to power up many times and tried almost all the combination Keys like Power+Vol up,Power+Vol down,Power+Vol up+Vol Down,etc.Only Red Light is blinking while connected to charging or PC. In PC the Port shows Qualcomm 900E and cannot be recognized in Mi Flash Tool. As Mi flash tool detects Qualcomm 9008.Even I manually Tried to change the driver to 9008 but didn't help me to flash the ROM.Shown an error: Device attached is not working; in Mi Flash Tool
Even I showed in a repair center near me but he ended up with no solution even. I have been trying to get it in Edl mode so that i can flash Fast boot Rom but no clue for that.
If any clue for this would be really appreciated!!!

As I mentioned all the problem in the thread....there's nothing wrong with bootloader.
Thanks but no thanks
More info required: Official unlock or Unofficial unlock?
After flashing oreo ROM lazy flasher is not required you need to format data ( apart from wiping data ) to boot the device.
when connected to PC when the red light is blinking that means you're in EDL mode, now try holding power + vol down button, keep holding until you get a vibration & get into fastboot mode.
Then you can use fastboot commands to check if the bootloader is still unlocked & can flash TWRP again if erased.
But, if device is unable to enter fastboot mode then you must flash MIUI fastboot ROM through EDL.
The procedure is the same for flashing but you need appropriate drivers en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=attachment&aid=NzU4MzF8ZWU0ZWM1OTR8MTM5ODc1NDUzM3w2NDg1MDkzM3wxOTY5Nw%3D%3D
look like EDL mode
I can buy ur phone if u want to sell it. Reply if u r interested.

I have tried holding all the combination keys as mentioned earlier but no results. So without getting in Fastboot mode i cannot flash the rom and I don't think so that my device is in EDL mode because PC device manager shows Qualcomm 900E instead of 9008.
Thanks for replying to the thread and please provide other solution.

Device is shutting down after mi logo

Hi all I'm new to this forum. I'm using a Xiaomi Redmi Note 3(SD) for about two years. I had rooted the device by official method and was using Lineage OS 14.1 almost 1.5 years . Yesterday I went through a xda thread which saying miui rom for rooted Redmi Note 3. I flashed that ROM and after that my device is not staring. When I'm powering the device it is vibrating and showing mi logo and then turning off. I'm not able to go to TWRP by volume up and power key as it is shutting down after switch on. But I'm able to go fastboot mode by volume down and power key combo. And also the notification led is blinking red when I'm charging the device. I've tried to flash TWRP recovery via fastboot but it's saying "failed remote device is locked" Tried to flash miui fastboot ROM via Miflash tool but it also failing with same remote device locked statement.
Now my question is that does my device got bricked? Will I be able to bring it back to working state? Anyone please help :crying:

Your device's bootloader got locked as a result of flashing MIUI. Just unlock it again using official Mi Unlock tool and flash TWRP.

Miflash won't work with fastboot mode if your device's bootloader is locked. You'll have to go to EDL mode and then flash using Miflash.

Sometimes the emmc.appsboot file in MIUI ROMs messes up this way. I always remove that file from the ROM zip before flashing just to be on the safer side, while flashing MIUI ROMs through TWRP. And, always make sure USB debugging is turned ON, as it helps during such situations.
any solution to this? mine shut off after showing mi.com logo.. flashing in edl mode with official rom still the same.. please help

Miflash won't work with fastboot mode if your device's bootloader is locked. You'll have to go to EDL mode and then flash using Miflash.
