My device wasn't detected by the PC - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

Today, I wanted to root my phone back after a MIUI update WITHOUT MY PERMISSION. So I lost my root and my custom recovery. So I went to my PC and do the same way I always do. But somehow, this time I boot my device into fastboot and the PC didn't detect my device. Before it worked just fine rooting my device. Now, I tried other ways but still the same problem, it didn't detect my device. Can someone please help me? I really really need the root for my phone. I don't know if it's about the low battery or any other problem. My device is currently in MIUI Global 9.5 | Stable | 9.5.3.0(MHOMIFA)
Please help! ??

Yes I did. But it seems not to work too. Any other thing that I missed? The bootloader was unlocked long ago.

First off try doing a battery pull and seeing if turns on after you've done that. Also what guide did you follow to try and root your device because if you show me what guide you tried using I might be able to figure out what you did wrong.

Exactly! I can't get it into flash mode too. All that works is the LED.. I connect the charger it does nothing. Tried connecting the usb, still no luck. Can't turn the tablet on. Can't get into recovery mod. Can't get into flash mode (the state I need to flash stock firmware with RKAndroidTool.exe)

If the LED still works that's at least a sign that the tablet isn't completely bricked. Have you installed the USB drivers for your tablet?

Unfortunately if you can't even get in to flash mode, then warranty may be your only option I'm afraid. No matter what you try driver wise, different computer, different usb port, you can't access flash mode?

Ok, thanks for the support, I'm gonna try with the warranty today I just can't accept that it's a brick... I have flashed my android phones over 200+ times with different kernels/ROMs etc... and none of them bricked ... But that's it... Can't get the tablet to start :S
Thanks again.

Try reflashing the rom again and use it for some time without trying to unlock the bootloader. First be sure the rom is flashed perfectly and working fine. If everything works ok, you can go ahead with other experiments (of course at your own risk.) By the way, someone was saying Telcel might have not added the bootloader unlock feature in this rom. Just a possibility.
EDIT: The symptom you have mentioned "phone keeps connecting and disconnecting" known behavior (see post 7th point), while installing fastbook mode drivers. Seem your phone has come in fastboot mode (but still locked) and no fastboot drivers yet installed. Installing it is really very tricky. Follow that post carefully.

Which rom you had before? Was it rooted and cwm on? Can you start phone in CWM mode (VolumeUp+Home+Power keys)? If yes, you can flash your cwm backup and be back on your previous rom.
I hope both of you people took nandroid backup (on external sdcard) before flashing.

But can you bring phone in SW upgrade Mode?
I think part of the problem was following the omap4boot. It flashes files to the phone which are not for our phone. I have done the same thing.
When I use the "Phone Tester" app from Play Store, under system info, it says the device is a "U2". This is wrong.
Screenshot here
I dont have any access to fastboot mode anymore as far as i can tell. I cant install clockworkmod on my phone now. Im trying to understand what changed by following the omap4boot guide.

Have patience and do not panic. This phone is really unbrickable, if not physically damaged.
I am not sure what is the status of your phone right now. But keep the fastboot thing aside and give priority to restore phone and make it properly working.
Remove all LG programs from pc, remove all LG drivers from pc and Restart PC. Now install latest LG PC Suite, and put phone in SW Upgrade mode and connect to pc and let all LG drivers install itself.
Do not let windows install any WDM drivers by clicking on this link while drivers are loaded. Do this always for any phone any device you connect to pc. Correct drivers already installed with PC Suite will load quickly.
Now run PC Suite and select Emergency Firmware Recovery option. Now LG PC suite should download fresh ROM and recover your phone.
================
If this fails, keeping phone in SW Upgrade mode, you can still try same with B2CAppClient as shown in 5A part of this thread. Click on "Start Updating"
================
Above both are online method and will need faster internet so rom is downloaded.
In the fastboot thread it clearly says to say no to the prompt that asks you if you want to flash u-boot. If you replaced your u-boot you need to get an original copy of the u-boot for your phone. I think Lelus has a post somewhere, but I don't know if its for your phone specifically. Search for Lelus x&u.
P.S. I've done same thing before and you should definitely be able to enter fastboot and get it sorted out again.
---------- Post added at 05:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:38 PM ----------
I can't seem to find the u-boot x-loader fix Lelus uploaded for someone. You have to look or maybe PM him.

Great. Glad I could help. :highfive:
See, I told you "Have patience and do not panic. This phone is really unbrickable, if not physically damaged. "
I always talk with screenshots Ok, which method it worked? PC Suite or B2C? Which rom it flashed V20A?
You can easily root any locked bootloader JB with Lelus method, if you are familiar to flashing with offline fix. Will be safer+quicker to newbies.

how can i get my phone working!? #PLZANSWR

hi
before everything, i should say that my English is poor!
my friend has a RN3 Pro, and he forgot his password. so, the phone is locked now. the bootloader is locked, and the phone is not verified in any account (Gmail, MI,etc.) what is the solution now!? how can i get the phone working?
my only hope is your solutions...
I guess you could try the mi flash tool with the flash all option, or edl mode -
I doubt there is a way to recover data at this point unless he had a custom recovery.

as i said before, the phone is locked and the Android Debugging is off. so all ADB methods should not work...
i'm going to try EDL Mode method...

PLEASE HELP!! Bootloop exist even after flashing with EDL test point method

So my phone just got stuck while normal usage. Tried restarting and the phone began boot looping.
Did plenty of research and finally decided to flash. Tried to flash using mi flash in fastboot mode but failed then google search made me realise my bootloader was locked. Did more research and decided to flash using test point EDL method.
Things went pretty well and the flash (miui v8) and the process became successful and when I powered my device the phone went back to boot loop again.
Tried flashing again and the result was the same.
It would be really helpful if somebody could actually help clear the issue. Did pretty much everything I could do as a newbie to flashing.
thank you!

If it recognises ur phone like that then flashing does nothing to ur phone so the only way is to go into edl mode and then flashing

Use this tool to go into edl mode and then flash

BQ Aquaris U2 Lite Stuck at boot

Hi, my BQ Aquaris U2 Lite won't boot, I unlocked its bootloader and when I restart it, it is stuck at the next screen:
Your device software can't be checked for corruption. Please lock the bootloader.
If no key pressed:
Your device will boot in 5 seconds
But nothing happens, it stays there.
Help please, thank you.
@help38
The first time that an Android device boots up, the bootloader ( the Android counterpart to Windows BIOS/UEFI ) starts running. It is basically a software program that contains a list of OS instructions to ensure the smooth functioning of the device. Once this bootloader is unlocked, the user can manually change what ROM image was set as default by the OEM, and customize the device according to its liking.
Simply unlocking the bootloader does NOTHING than the Android OS now is waiting for instruction what ROM to load and run

Hi, thank you, but my phone is stuck at that screen and nothing happens, I can't boot Android, do you know what is happening?
I unlocked the bootloader with BQ Firmware Flash Tool, because the phone only loaded Android Recovery, and didn't boot up the OS.
I only want to recover my files and photos
Thank you again.

I think you've to flash a Custom ROM. Note that's only possible if USB debugging got enabled on phone before unlocking the bootloader took place.

No other methods, AFAIK
Even doing a Factory Reset doesn't relock the bootloader.
BTW: The 1st thing of all things an Android user should do is to enable USB debugging on his phone: that makes it all easier.
