hi y'all
i tried to flash my redmi 3s with a official dev rom today but unfortunatelly it seems that I messed things up.
My phone's bootloader wasn't unlocked so I tried the method for locked bootloaders using miflash and getting the phone into download mode. I got all the drivers installed (at least I think so) on Win 10 64 bit (driver signature verification is disabled).
While trying to flash using MiFlash I got at approx. 20% the error message "MiFlash Error "0x80070008 max buffer sector is 256". After that, my phone didn't boot anymore. All I'm seeing is the white Mi-icon.
I also noticed that It's not possible anymore to turn the device off. When I try, it turns on by itself and is stuck at the boot screen.
Download mode isn't working either. I tried the button-combination (Vol+ and -) and the "fastboot oem edl" command from Win command prompt when the phone is in fastboot mode - which does working.
When entering "fastboot oem edl" command I only get "waiting for any device" and nothing happens.
Is there any way to unbrick my phone or can I only use it as a paperweight from now on?
I hope yomebody can help.
Thanks & regards
Connect to your computer and try the power+volume(+)+volume(-)
It will put it in download mode

Thanks for the fast response. I tried this while my phone was connected to my pc. Now I see this on my phone:
http://www.techgrapple.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/Unlock-Redmi-Note-3-Bootloader.jpg
and at the bottom it says pcsuite.mi.com.
When I take a look in the Windows device manager it says "Android Phone / Android ADB Interface".
Am I really in download mode now?

Hi, because of that error you got installing new ROM you cant boot your phone anymore. As that happened to me before i might help you.
First, make sure you hold long enought power+VOL- buttons. Hold them for good one minute, you should be able to go into fastboot mode. Fast Boot worked for me when my Redmi had softbrick, also something messed up installing ROM.
Let me know how it goes.

You should now download MI flash program, and try to flash your device trough it. You can find tutorials on youtube.( just make sure you have lastest drivers installed.

No, please read my post all the way. I'm not able to flash using miflash at this point because miflash isn't showing my device and I'm also not able to enter bootmode with my device.

And also have you followed the steps? Like have you installed the unsigned drivers for mi flash? To flash using mi flash tool you will need to have your to disable driver signature enforcement, there is a way to disable it with cmd, I recommend you to use that method.
And your phone's screen should be totally black when its on download mode, if it's not helping then try going to the recovery mode at first, (volume(+)+power, then from the built in recovery miui go to the download mode, hope this helps, i use redmi 3 pro, same happened to me the first time

When I press Power and Vol+ the phone is simply rebooting. There isn't no Recovery screen.
I noticed, when installing a Version of miflash, a Tutorial said that there are three Popups which ask me if I really want to install an unsigned driver. I always only got 2 of these popups when installing miflash. Is there a way to install all drivers manually?
This got to be some kind of driver issue. I tried connecting the phone on another System (win7, 32bit) in fastboot mode. Here, when in enter fastboot OEM edl, the screen Gies black and the Windows device manager Shows COM3 Qualcomm...
It just ain't working on Win10
I got it now. I messed around in the windows device manager (unsinstalled the android / adb /...devices), reinstalled the drivers. Then, in fastboot mode, I executed the fastboot oem edl command and I got into download mode. From here I had to use the older version of MiFlash (2016.04.01.0 64bit). The newest version always gave me the error "specified cast is not valid" when I clicked the refresh button. Seems to be buggy as hell but the older version of Miflash worked as a charm.
Now, my bootloader is unlocked and I'm rockin the newest global version of official MIUI.

flash the stock rom via mi flash , watch this video , this will surely help u

Hey guys, i need your help
I've unlocked the bootloader the unofficial way and now i want to go back.
I tried to flash the fastboot 7.1.8.0 global stable in edl mode according to this guide:
*sorry, not allowed to post outside links*
The max buffer size error occured, i followed the steps, replaced the files and wanted to flash again, now the error "error: receiving hello packet" occurs...
I'm stuck in edl mode right now and i cant flash. what to do now?
Thanks in advance!
//edit: okay it looks like the flash process was not completed, so i could get into fastboot and then "fastboot reboot". previous rom is still booting, what the hell ...
Try rebooting into edl mode again and flash back the rom

Hi gus! have you solved your problem
Provide me your solution please, i'm in the same situation now with my Redmi note 3 Dual Sim
@mofazar
Hi,
Have you tried to reboot your computer? If you're not, then just try to reboot it without disconnecting your device.
And then just try it again.
Thanks.

Windows must be 64bit (windows 7 or later),connect your phone to rear usb ports. In my case this was the problem (same error as yours).

I've the same problem. There is a solution? I've the virtualisation of Windows 7 64bit on linux, i don't know if this is the problem or not.
Got the solution....
I got the solution for all xiaomi users...
You just have to factory reset the device an then you are ready to go
if your device doesn't start then go to the fastboot menu and open cmd in the pc after connecting the phone to the pc...
then follow my steps
1. go to the adb folder.......
2. Then hold shift and right click there and click on "Open Command Prompt Here" it will open cmd .
3. The check if the device is detected or not if not the go to device manager and update the driver...
to check type : fastboot devices
4. then type fastboot -w it will wipe your whole data and do not start the phone firstly just flash the stock rom and then turn it on...
5. hurray i hope your problem will be solved.....
Thank you............
Hello my friend just made an update of his phone which is a redmi 3 pro
His little bro shutdowned the phone while update was in process. The result is that now the phone have a bootloop, can't access the recovery (blackscreen when trying) and have a locked bootloader.
So I am not sur how to unlock the BL if I can't install a dev rom and can't boot. Not sur how to get into the recovery with the 2 same problems.
Could anyone help me for this one? Which is hard to me.
Thanks
PS: I tried to do something with unpacking boot and remove a ",verify" thing in the ramdisk but I guess I'll need the unlockedbootloader to flash the new boot.img?

I have the similar problem with my Redmi3. The Fastboot screen is the only screen that I can get now. Let me know if you have answer. Thanks.
If you can acces fastboot then just connect the phone to computer in fastboot and enter fastboot oem edl in cmd (maybe you will need Minimal ADB and fastboot to do it). Then flash official ROM via MiFlash.
ohoh seems interesting then it won't say couldn't verify or smthg? will tell that to my friend asap, thanks
EDL mode allows flashing with locked bootloader. Some models have this mode locked, but I think that is not the case with Redmi 3.

Hey! I am back with some news of my friend!
He tried to run the EDL mode but when he does that the phone simply goes into the bootloop again... He asked a vendor from Aliexpress to get a french rom, is there a way that the phone doesn't have EDL because of the rom or something like that? I mean is EDL a hardware-thing or a software-thing
same problem

I have same problem, but this way is not work, because bootloader is locked. Im forget for replacing recovery.img in update package with twrp.
I had this problem before few monthes
my solution was to "force" putting this device on EDL mode
I clicked on vol up + vol down + power together and got into EDL mode, then miflash it.
google - xiaomi understanding download mode
it will send you into miui forum
then second method, download mode, it is what I've described
So, i installed Xposed, and like many people, i got stuck in the logo... No big deal there... Went to look for some help, and it said to go to fastboot, so I went, but it got stuck in the fastboot logo. Then I connected it to the computer and when I try to list the ADB devices I Ialways get an error saying the server is outdated...
I really need some help! I can't find anything online to help me!
Thanks in advance!
Edit: I submitted a bootloader unlock request to Xiaomi earlier today, but I can't see if its approved or not because phone doesn't work
well,
if you are in fastboot mode then the command is "Fastboot Devices", Not "adb Devices"

I tried, but i cant seem to go to edl mode through fastboot, any tips? and because of bootloader lock i cant flash fastboot rom with MI Flash
Edl mode needs a specific fastboot version.
For the Redmi Note 3 Pro / Special Edition
Download and extract this package on your PC.
Enter fastboot mode by holding Power and Vol- at the same time. Wait until the Mi Bunny appears, then connect the phone to the PC.
Run reboot.bat in the extracted package. A command prompt will appear. Press a key to reboot the phone to EDL mode.
Upon entering EDL mode, the screen should turn blank. The notification LED might be blinking red. Done.
To get out of EDL mode, hold the Power button for about 10 seconds.

Above quote taken from xiaomi reddit wiki.
If the above doesn't work, see the link for deep flash cable, shouldn't be need for kenzo/kate.
How you flashed/installed xposed on locked bootloader is another question?
You may need to update your adb/fastboot version + device drivers(adb)

Installing Mi Flash should have put the correct drivers on your PC.
But can be got from here: - https://xiaomifirmware.com/downloads/download-pc-drivers-xiaomi-redmi-note-3/
And I already linked adb/fastboot tools.
IF your comfortable opening your device, there is also a test point method you could try.
http://en.miui.com/thread-244814-1-1.html
Could not find a English video, so maybe try googling more and you might find one.
If not, you could ask at local repair shop, if they would fix it for you. Using Cable/ TP method.
Note for other readers:- MIUI roms need a special version of xposed, for it to work. And installing from an app would more than likely would have use the wrong version. Should never be done on a locked bootloader, only asking for trouble. (Rovo89 is currently trying to bring MIUI support to the official version for nougat roms)
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 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.

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:

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.
