Redmi 5 Plus stopped working after latest update - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers

Hi
I received an update on my Redme 5 Plus las night. After installing it my phone has stopped working. I did see a message that was something like 'This update cannot be installed on this device', and prompted me to Reboot. Since then I am stuck on Reboot. I have tried factory resetting using the 'Wipe data' option as well. I also installed MI PC Suite, connected the phone to the PC and played around, nothing happens. Clicking on R.Flash says that the device is up to date.
I am now desperate, somebody please help. I have looking up on forums etc, but haven't been able to figure it out yet. The phone is only a month old, was quite happy so far.
Thanks
Roshan

I never used mi pc suite, if you have your bootloader unlocked download fastboot rom and flash it through miflash tool. Also you can install a custom recovery like TWRP in fastboot mode and try any of the custom roms

Can't update Global Stable Rom?

Hi there
Girlfriend has a Redmi 3. Tried to unlock it moooonths ago but never got the code from Xiaomi (tried 2 times to do the proper process, no luck).
She was happy enough with the Global ROM, though, so just let it be.
Recently she's been complaining about a few things, and turns out her phone is still stuck on the 7.1.3.0.
Pressing "Check for Updates" has no result (the button grays out to "Checking..." but then goes back to normal). Just keeps showing "No updates available".
Tried the ROM from the official page (http://en.miui.com/download-298.html as far as I can see), and followed the Flashing guide (http://en.miui.com/a-232.html)
I go to "Choose update package", select the zip file, the screen changes to "Getting info..." and then just crashes to the launcher, nothing happens.
Anyone has any ideas on how to solve this and update her phone to the latest stable ROM?
(would love to just get it unlocked and install CM but nothing I can do without the Unlock code!)
Thanks for any help!

Need Help - Unable to Turn off "Find my device"

Hello Devs
Today I unofficially unlocked the bootloader and installed ZCX TWRP and flashed MIUI 8.0.6 Global Stable ROM with MI OTA survival enabled.
Now when I rebooted the phone and after initial setup it showed that this device is connected with my MI account, I tried to login but it won't let me do it.
It continuously showed error for logging in MI account. It showed finding your device. I was unable to go to main screen and phone remained in initial setup.
Rebooted multiple times, cleared Dalvik cache. But nothing happened.
Then I went to I.mi.com and logged in, removed my device from console.
Tried again to log in after reboot and somehow it skipped that part and phone started to home screen
Now, strange thing started happening. Settings are not opening at all. It's just crashing and crashing.
When turning off find my device, I am getting below error (see screenshot).
Guys please help me, as I am having fear that if I flash MIUI 8.1.6 via updater, I may face this MI account problem once again.
Any prompt help will be highly appreciated

Unauthorised action have been detected

Hello android fans!
I got used SM-G925F (android 6.0.1) every 10 mins receive warning from KNOOX: Unauthorised action have been detected. Restart, reset, wipe dont work. Tried root phone to remove KNOOX security, but without success. I got OTA update to Nougat, but it cant finish upgrade (i think because of this error). Right now i dont have PC where to connect phone, so reflash new rom is not option right now. Maybe someone else got same problem and got solutions?

EMUI 9 update and eRecovery

Hello, I write from Italy, where I bought an Honor 9 in December 2017.
I never tampered with this phone: no root, nor flashing, nor whatever fancy trick, as in fact I'm not really exactly good with smartphones.
The night between the 20th and the 21st of April 2019, after being prompted by my phone to install the new EMUI 9 update [ STF-L09 9.0.1.162(C432E2R1P5) ], I accepted and let it install overnight (note that the update was downloaded, probably automatically, 1 or 2 days before, but I didn't accept the prompt to install it yet, because I needed my phone for a 15-hours long car trip, and so I figured I wouldn't risk it by installing the update just before my trip - LUCKILY apparently, because otherwise I would have had to stay with this eRecovery thing the whole day without a computer).
I woke up this morning (21st of April) to find it was on eRecovery, giving me the following choices:
(some message I don't remember, probably "Serious problems occurred when the device boot etc. etc.")
Download latest version and recovery
Wipe data/factory reset
Reboot
Shutdown
I did the "Download latest version and recovery" option at first: after clicking it, it searches for WiFi around, and after writing my router password and connecting it to my router, it downloaded the 3941 MB (if I recall correctly) update; however, I left my phone downloading only to find it like this (I was away while it was downloading because I have a bit of a slow internet, so I don't exactly know what happens after it finishes downloading):
(some message I don't remember, probably "Serious problems occurred when the device boot etc. etc.")
Wipe data/factory reset
Shutdown
So I did "Shutdown" and I restarted the phone shortly after, and it restarted itself twice (one was my restart, but after that it restarted itself automatically), then always finishing on the eRecovery with 4 options like I wrote before. I did the "Download latest version and recovery" option again, and I had the same result.
What should I do? I really wish NOT to delete all my internal data, even because after reading some other threads I understood it might even be useless. Do you have any counsel?
Thanks in advance guys, I'm really going crazy and have no idea whatsoever about what to do, please help me!
P.S. I believe I found some other people with my same problem (or atleast similar) on the Huawei UK community site (I'm not allowed to post links yet as I just created this account).
The only way to recover this is download the update completely with pc in install to memory in dload folder after it finishes then boot to download mode and hopefully should work again it sounds like you have faulty update hope this helps
Try to update with HiSuite, if it doesn't work just grab your files with HiSuite and update using dload. If it still doesn't work, warranty claim.

Problem with Honor 7S DUA-L22 (reboots itself)

Hi guys !
I have that phone, the Honor 7S, in fact it's the one of my best buddy. Anyway, it was working fine, no problems, until the day it rebooted itself randomly. And since that moment, it just can't be working more than ~30-45 seconds before rebooting again.
I tried factory reset, nothing changes, HiSuite doesn't detect phone, eRecovery is getting that error message "getting package info failed" or something like that. As there is like nothing about this phone on internet, no section on XDA neither, or anything else, I have to admit I need some help
Thanks in advance, and have a nice day
