It was completely fine before that. It has been 3 weeks since I rooted the phone and it has been working perfectly. There was a pending update though (couldn't install it because it was leading to TWRP recovery mode at boot for some reason).
The battery was low, I connected the charger (not PC) and now the phone is not booting up. Just stuck on the logo. I can go into recovery mode and fastboot but that's it. I have no idea how to proceed.
8.2.4.0 (MHOMIDL)
Android version 6.0.1
I followed this guide to root my phone - r/Xiaomi/wiki/advanced/root (on reddit.com) (I can't link the link)
I would appreciate any help
Try to flash miui with my flash or something custom with twrp, if you need to backup data, you can do it with twrp.
its soft bricked....use mi flash tool to fladh fadtboot rom

Handset: Xiaomi Redmi 3 Pro.
Steps done:
1. bought on aliexpress with some suspicious bloatware preloaded.
2. was unsure if bootloader is locked, so flashed modified bootloader and TWRP as per this guide: http://en.miui.com/thread-276565-1-1.html
3. flashed latest xiaomi.eu dev build: xiaomi.eu_multi_ido_6.5.26_v7-5.1
4. boot, reboot
5. flash SuperSU via TWRP: UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.65-20151226141550.zip
6. booted and used several days, few reboots. All working fine, except apps closing in background and bluetooth earpiece losing connection. Described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-3/help/redmi-3-pro-impressions-closing-t3397186
Where problems have started:
7. Decided to get stable xiaomi.eu release. Maybe forceclose and BT issues are resolved?
8. booted to TWRP and flashed STABLE release from xiaomi.eu: xiaomi.eu_multi_ido_V7.3.1.0.LHPCNDD_v7-5.1.zip
9. also flashed SuperSU without restart: UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.65-20151226141550.zip
10. After restart, I get boot loop.
It does very short boot attemps: when powered on, it vibrates and displays MI logo for a second, then reboots. Repeats it quickly 2 or 3 times and switches off.
Unable to go in to download mode, as volUp + Pwr will also give bootloop.
VolDn+Pwr will load fastboot after one reboot. MiFlash utility finds the phone, but throws an error on flash attempt (file not found or something).
If restarted with all VolDn+VolUp+Pwr buttons pressed, it will not turn on the screen at all, but appears on MiFlash utility and I am able to flash it. But still bootloops after that.
If I flash it with original bootloader, not the modified one as per guide (on step 2), I am able to boot in to china MIUI, and also in to bootloader menu. But of course TWRP does not work.
How do I do it with locked bootloader:
1. flash TWRP?
2. flash stable xiaomi.eu release?
3. get root?
Of course all of this is needed only until stable CM comes out.
Also, if bootloader is unlocked, is it displayed somehow? For example my old motorola would show a nasty warning during boot.
Short update. I have managed to install the latest xiaomi.eu ROM.
Unmodified bootloader is needed.
Flash TWRP via MiFlash separately, after MIUI is installed and booted.
Then flash SuperSU and you're good.
EDIT: I lost all my data since the phone was encrypted, but I recovered it flashing in fastboot mode
My Redmi 3 pro is stuck in a bootloader after trying to root it for the first time.
power off doesn't do anything.
power and volume up doesn't do anything
power and volume down shows a Fastboot logo with a cartoon, but I don't know what to do here and if it is useful.
After 1-2 minutes in fastboot logo it starts again in bootloop.
I've tried to press both volume up and down and power and keep it pressed for several bootloop cycles. It looks like the phone switched off, or at least the screen was black.
After restarting it again bootloop
I think soon the battery will drain and the phone switch off
I really don't know what to do
Hello there,
i need help with unbricking my Bq Aquaris X5 Cm Edition (codenname: paella).
I flashed Twrp, was not able to flash SU.zip. And flahsing LineageOs failed with "error7"
after i was unable to flash lineage and doing other stuff i had no system installed any more so i flashed cm unnofical gohan version with the flashall.bat.
And then i rebooted and had the mess. The phone does not want to turn on. Only thing that the phones give me as a "sign of life" is the red LED when i plug in the charging cable and give him power.
Im not able to get into fastboot or recovery mode. So my questions is: Is there ANY way to get that phone back to life?
Istn the normal way flahsing old bootloader and then original firmware?
But for that i need to get to fastboot mode which im not reaching.

I'm in the same situation with a BQ X5 plus, I think the only way is to get the phone to the BQ service center
Did you get the phone working again ?
Nope i handed it over to the support and got a New one because guarentee was still valid

yes you have to install qualcomm drivers and see in what mode the phone are.
9006, 900E or 9008
solved
I HAD the same problem with my BQ Aquaris X Pro.
Running the lineage OS 15.1, rooted with AddonSu installed.
This is how I was able to wake it up again.
1) I unplugged the phone from the USB loading cable
(don't know if this step is needed - the battery was definitely not totally empty, when this red flashing LED thing occurred. However, i don't think the phone charges when the LED red light flashes.).
2) I took the sim card out (don't know if this step is needed).
3) I pressed for about 2 [minute] power and volume (don't know if up or down) button together. And then it woke up again.
Maybe this is the special boot recovery mode option mentioned here?
What ever it is, it worked for me.

R3 Pro (3GB/32GB, 2015817 version) came with some chinese/sellers custom ROM (and locked bootloader). It was heavy and bloated, so I decided to update it. Tried latest global stable (fastboot) ROM via miflash, flash was successful but that's was a lie - it stuck on mi logo...
Then I tried various other ROMs, global and developers, latest and older, some xiaomi.eu, manhit, etc. (for locked bootloader) and all I've got was either just a mi logo or mi logo with "powered by android" animation beneth. I left it for hours after flash and still nothing.
Then I found some ways to flash twrp, did that successfully, booted into it, wonder around in terminal and file manager, tried some recovery ROMs - but the result is the same - just logo or logo + animation.
I can get into fastboot (but it doesn't realy matters since bootloader is locked), download (EDL) mode, that Xiaomi menu (with Power and Vol+, with "shortcuts" to all the modes, hardware tests - btw. everything works there, etc.), twrp, charge battery (with some ROMs phone just gets warm and I know it's charging, there are no LED and/or animation, but in some everything works just like it should), but just can't boot into OS.
And I'm going nuts!
Here are some logs from the last ROM (i don't even know anymore which one is it) - pastebin.com/qaKVzxue and pastebin.com/dM3nEVj0
I'm not so experienced in looking at that but seems like every other thing in there, like cpu, i2c (touch/sensor), sound, battery, etc. is broken/faulty which is not true - everything was fine before update, and everything IS still fine according to inbuilt (xiaomi) hardware tests.
So somehow it seems that all the ido ROMs I tried are wrong for this device? Or am I missing something (quite possibly, I'm tired and pissed off)
Last night I did a backup of efs/nvram and then wiped internal memory/partitions, flashed latest global ROM, restored efs/nvram - phone stuck, but this time not on MI logo but freakin' penguin logo (like here en.miui.com/thread-377870-1-1.html). Same logo is for fastboot mode, no more bunny. Then flashed twrp and phone now shows mi logo with "powered by android" animation beneath, like before...
I don't know how this works with Xiaomi phones, but looks like it worked with some factory/seller special combination of ROM and bootloader. Then I did update and something stuck, maybe differences between ROM and bootloader, or some inside/hidden security mechanism that stops boot process? And because I can't find original firmware and/or bootloader is locked (maybe even updated?) it's now stuck...
Either that or some HW fault, but it would be insane that official ROM update with official tools and in factory download mode with full battery can cause such problem!
Can you go to twrp recovery?
Yes, like I said in the first post. I can do anything but boot android/MIUI. It's either because of locked bootloader or somehow official ROM installed officialy (via MiFlash in EDL mode) bricked phone, which is catastrophic bug i.e. epic design/implementation fail by Xiaomi.
Try this

Sorry to intrude, I have pretty much the same problem.
Phone is stuck in bootloop and I can only access fastboot mode and EDL mode (but in EDL the phone does not connect to pc) and when I try to flash a stock ROM (since I know it is a software issue due to an unfortunate update) it says "locked device". So I tried to unlock it via MiUnlock... but phone cannot be verified 'cause "account not bound to this device" and obviously I cannot change any options since I cannot use my phone.
Please, help
it was happened to me about 3 days ago when i play around with the twrp & rooting thingy... tried everything from youtube to various forum solutions... just one link really works when you only have fastboot options and your phone bootloader is still unlocked. just follow the steps in the OP... key things here is downloading the tool to read your phone as mentioned in the OP i.e [TOOL]Minimal ADB and Fastboot [1-6-17]
1) Download Tool -> https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
2) Follow all the steps in the OP -> http://en.miui.com/thread-277276-1-1.html
3) Enjoy your phone from back from the dead.. LOL!
4) Remember here, the key is NEVER GIVE UP and PATIENT!
NOTE : The Device will start, wait till completion , it can take up to 10 Minutes. -> for me around 15-20 minutes for I have flashed the current beta rom of MIUI8 7.6.8
cheers, guys!
blx-
I had a similar situation.
Officially unlocked boot loader. Flashed TWRP using fastboot. Only got the mi logo and a boot loop on start up.
Could not turn on. Could not boot into TWRP.
When the phone was boot looping I could still get into fastboot mode by holding power+volume down.
I booted from fastboot mode into TWRP by opening the command prompts and using
"fastboot boot twrp2.img"
That got the phone available from windows explorer. I was able to move a new ROM image to the SD card and install from TWRP.
Currently running lineage 14.1 -20190112.
I lost a bunch of **** but my phone seems to turn on for the moment.
Note, I still cannot boot into TWRP using the phone only. I can only boot in from fast boot as above.
So this old thread - https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-4/help/strange-problem-black-screen-redmi-note-t3716706
used to work for me. I downloaded the v17 twrp given by highwaystar_ru, and flashed it via adb, rebooting to bootloader, then fastboot flash recovery twrp.img, then rebooting via power+vol up buttons.
However it is no longer working - there is no visual display.
adb devices detects the device in recovery mode
Touching my finger randomly on the screen, it vibrates. I verified that this actually still 'works' on the TWRP menu, so it's definitely the fault of TWRP just not displaying on my screen.
The official TWRP download does not seem to work either.
Any advice and experience is welcome, thanks
Hey can you try these TWRP and tell me if the problem persists:
Dark Recovery Project:

Redwolf Recovery Project:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...t/recovery-red-wolf-recovery-project-t3653704
Twrp Exclusive:

Twrp exclusive(this might work for your black screen its for ebbg display so try it as well):
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=962187416754473934
If the problem still persists then idk try restoring your phone to stock by Mi kdz files by following this guide if you dont know:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-4/how-to/guide-revive-redmi-note-4x-codename-t3703365
It says bricked but you can use it aswell, and try repeating the proccess of unlocking bootloader(now you can unlock it whenever you want because xiaomi has already given you the permission) and flashing a twrp again.
Hopefully i helped
Flashing all four of those links with fastboot flash recovery, then leaving the phone plugged in and pressing key combination to get back to recovery, do not work.
I have since fixed it. Not sure why it wasn't working, but here were my steps:
Install MiFlash tool.
Go to bootloader/fastboot mode on phone.
Flash an 8.1.11 ROM.
Then everything works from there, and can reinstall the v17 ebbg TWRP as usual.
Hello and Servus,
I recently got a Homtom from my neighboor to look at because its full of bloatsoftware and seems to have battery issuses.
First I tried to install TWRP by this guide "https://romprovider.com/2018/10/homtom-zoji-z7-root/" and this one "https://www.getdroidtips.com/twrp-recovery-zoji-z7/"
I was able to "install" twrp using adb but I was stucked in a bootloop after this, couldnt even get to recovery /twrp, so I tried my way with the Smart Phone Flash Tool.
Some problems where persistent and I couldnt connect my phone with the tool until I had to format it via.
After formating the phone and installing the stock rom I got from here "https://rootmygalaxy.net/stock-rom-on-zoji-z7-official-firmware/" I am now stuck even worse. I dont even have a bootloop, the phone just starts and goes off.
Even worse was it, after I tried to flash to a "higher" version I got from this post "https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/zoji-z7-4g-smartphone-t3613364" - I just got a display bug and couldn't do anything, so I flashed the stock rom again.
Right now the only thing that works is fastboot. If I try to boot it in recovery or else it just goes off.
Is there someone who can help me there ?
