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.

Thanks for replying. But when I'm trying to flashing using MIflash tool it's saying remote device locked. And MI tool is also not recognising the device as USB debugging is not turned on. What to do next?

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

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"

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.

Even I had this problem. However I fixed this. Try these steps
1.Press power button and volume+ button till you see Phone and USB cable picture.
2.Install lastest version of Chinese Mi Pcsuite (Don't use English version as it has some issues detecting your phone).
3. Now connect your phone to pc via usb cable
4. A popup menu will appear in Chinese. Select the second option which is factory reset.
5. After that the phone reboots and everything will work fine. However you will lose user data.
Yes but mine is MTK version?

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.
Thanks for replying to the thread and please provide other solution.

Hope it helps.

okay .. too bad you should replace your device, or you can find a good mechanic to replace some broken parts. it usually works
did you drop it?
or it happened during installing rom or something?
How does it happened please tell us.
Charge it overnight
Hold the power button 20-30 seconds the next day
Boot the device in fast boot mode by holding volume down+power button. Then go to MiFlash and flash fastboot redmi note 4 rom in edl mode(Unlock bootloader by running the last script file and then proceed to do the following steps). Download stock fastboot rom for redmi note 4 from official mi website(Note: The stock fastboot rom is different from stock recovery rom). While flashing the rom, below you have the option to choose three modes, click clean all and lock. Flash this rom and you're device will be working in no time. Make sure your device has adequate battery
