[Fixed] : Getting Blank Screen On Pie Roms - Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers

Hello,
I've been using Mido over one year, never faced such a weird problem.Whenver I flash Pie Based Roms the whole screen goes blank when the Rom boots up.I've followed each & every instructions as per OP,still same result but everything works fine on Oreo/Nougat based Roms.I've used TWRP by warabhishek/Pitchblack TWRP/OrangeFox TWRP,I'm on latest 8.9.6 firmware. Tried almost every pie based roms/GSI for Mido.
Can anyone provide a fix for this issue?
Edit : So I've fixed it myself after researching on the MIUI forum.Some people got this issue on various xiaomi devices after updating MIUI,After they did a Factory reset everything went normal.So I decided to test this,I did things,which are mentioned below.
1.I was on Oreo Rom so I flashed a fastboot miui rom.(Don't lock the bootloader)
2.After the Miui rom booted,Turned on the usb debugging
3.Booted into MIUI Recovery, Performed a factory reset (I know it sounds strange,but stay sure it's going to work)
4.Flashed Treble-TWRP by abhishek
5.Once again format data from advanced wipe (Need to remove the encryption)
6.Wipe system>data>cache>vendor
7.Flash any Pie Rom & Gapps
8.Reboot
Now you won't face that strange black screen issue anymore.
Thanks

Go to fastboot then type fastboot flash boot boot.img

Are you sure this will work? cause I've wasted many hours in flashing these Roms but no success. If you're quite sure about this I will definitely try this

And another thing is, when Rom boots up, If I press volume buttons, I can see volume sliders but nothing more.Everything else is black.

Try...
To flash stable firmware 9.6.2! Gcam work in my case.

Idk what's happening with you but I found this useful, while nobody had idea about this problem. You can try flashing older miui fastboot rom, like miui9/10 then perform a factory reset with miui default recovery.then try switching to other custom roms.Let me know the update.

[Q] Nexus 9 bootloops with every ROM other than stock.

TL;DR: Nexus 9 bootloops with every ROM other than stock.
My Nexus 9 will bootloop whenever any custom ROM is installed on it. I follow the usual steps in TWRP (downloading ROM and Gapps, wiping factory reset, flashing the zips and wipe dalvik/cache) will not get any error during installation and regardless of the ROM, I will get my nexus stuck on Google logo. Then I will have to unroot and install stock again and it'll work.
Ive also tried Wugfresh Nexus Root Toolkit and it won't work either. As long as Im on stock, I can root as well and everything is fine.
Any idea what could be happening? I wanna get rid of the damn lag. Have tried Cyanogenmod, Slimrom6 and Pure Nexus Project. All with their recommended gapps and will always end up with my tablet stuck in the Google logo.
Any help is very appreciated.
Sounds like you are doing everything right..
How long are you waiting for the device to start up ? Is it possible you aren't simply waiting long enough ? I'd give it a good 10 - 20 minutes on 1st boot before deciding it's hung in a boot loop.
I am having the exact same problem. I have tried so many roms that install correctly and then when flashing gapps and rebooting it is stuck on the Google logo. And I left my tablet on for a few hours so its definitely bootlooping.
The only thing that comes to mind is bootloader... If you coming to androind 7.x from android 6.x, you need to flash new bootloader (for example via ADB), otherwise you'll end up in a bootloop.
yup, happening to me too. so, how can i flash the factory image now? thanks.

I understand that i'll have to use adb (actually fastboot) to flash the bootloader. But where do i get the right one for android 7.x and flpunder device?
Could you please post the links for that?

I assume i need the latest 7.0.0 (NRD91N, Nov 2016) bootloader which is inside the latest build?
Then i will need to go through the process like:
Code:
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-flounder-3.48.0.0141.img
Or do i have to do more like described here (Steps 8-9)?
Your help is appreciated, thanks again!
ps: for others who got stuck in the bootloop and don't know how to stop it or turn off the device:
1. reboot into recoverymode in case you have twrp
2. open a terminal
3. type in
Code:
poweroff
an hit enter
Yes, NRD91N
Well , all i did was simple
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-flounder-3.48.0.0141.img
once complete
fastboot reboot-bootloader
That's it
Still not booting...

Thanks for clarifying that. Unfortunately i still can't boot into AOSP_flounder_11-18-2016.zip
which i flashed afterwards. The bootloader is shown correctly though. But when i start the
Nexus 9 the message https://g.co/ABH is shown in red.
Which rom are you running? A CM build or AOSP?
ps: trying with cm-14.1-20161027-UNOFFICIAL-flounder.zip now, but boot seems to hang too and the upper part
of the Nexus 9 is getting really warm. I will leave it for 15 more minutes to wait and see what happens.

Hmm sorry i don't knwo why this is happening.
Currently i reverted back to marshmallow roms, i find them more stable.
Do you have twrp? After flashing bootloader i go to twrp and do complete wipe and format data, then flash new rom. I had no problems booting.

Thank you maelfilk, i got i running now.
CM boots properly now - though i cannot configure it. During the Setup process
in the first step of selecting the language it crashes. I am sure this will be fixed
with a later version of CM-14.1.
Does someone know any other source for CM-14.1 for flounder?
Meanwhile i will try AOSP again.
Edit: AOSP boots properly but unfortunately WLAN does not work in the AOSP_flounder_11-18-2016.zip build.
I guess this is why you stick to the 6.x builds maelfilk.

In the archive with bootloader is another archive with vendor and other images. Just flash it in twrp as in the instructions in the link you gave. If you have trouble with wlan or camera it usually means that vendor is outdated.

Also Fixed,but FW Flash is a problem
HI,
I just wanted to comment on this, in the hope that some more experienced member, or even TheStrix would see it.
I've had the exact same problem over the last few days, but have been able to fix it each time by reflashing recovery from miFlash in edl mode;
Flashing the firmware from TheStrix (Latest, kenzo) without fail, bricks the Redmi Note 3, only being able to get to FastBoot. I'm able to switch to EDL on the PC with that batch file that's floating about, and flash recovery through miflash. I've been on LineageOS14 for the past few weeks, but my phones been barely usable with lag. Switched to AOSPX the other day by first flashing the FW;
1. Reboot to recovery
2. Backups
3. Wipe everything except for sd
4. Flash FW
5. Flash AOSPEx
6. Flash Gapps
7. Clear Cache
8. Reboot
That was the first time, and brick... as described above, back to recovery- tried missing out GAPPS- same result..
I went through a few different combinaitons, so have gotten quite used to the EDL mode miFlash...
Back through EDL.. flash recovery.. JUST AOSPEx, booted fine. Setup, etc, back to recovery, GAPPS, reboot, setups, etc.All working good- Except no power button
So I once again went back to recovery and flashed just the FW (Fully expecting it might fail)- Sure enough.. BRICK... So just, I've gone back through the miFlash, installed recovery, but then just decided to try rebooting from recovery into my existing AOSPEx- All works fine- Even the power button now- Was that fixed by the FW? And the bigger thing I'm wondering, since everytime I've flashed the FW it's resulted in a brick-does that mean the FW's not working? When I re flash the recovery, am I back to original FW?
Am I now on the new FW?
Only other thing is I don't have root... I'll see if I can find a supersu to flash, I guess.
So tl;dr- I'm all up and working- but flashing the latest FW form TheStrix appears to brick the Note 3 every time. I can only get a rom to install by NOT first flashing the FW. Flashing the FW after a rom still bricks. And I don't know if it is actually flashed with the new fw after re-installing recovery.

It's because you haven't unlocked officially. TheStrix's firmware contains MM bootloader which relocks your bootloader if you're in LP bootloader(which is your bootloader if you've unlocked unofficially). If you've already unlocked officially then flash the latest MIUI dev ROM(which relocks your bootloader) then unlock again, TheStrix's firmware will now work.
Or you can just unzip the Firmware then remove emmc_appsboot.mbn(MM bootloader) then rezip it again. You'd still get problems flashing the latest LineageOS Roms if you don't update your bootloader though. So my advice is unlock officially.
Try This guide http://en.miui.com/thread-235865-1-1.html and this guide make a deep flash cable and download the latest fastboot rom and follow the first link http://en.miui.com/thread-380827-1-1.html

Can't flash Pixel Experience ROM on Whyred

Hello,
Since MIUI 10.3.1.0 (PEIMIXM) was launched, I tried to update my device. After the update, when the smartphone rebooted it kept stuck in Mi logo sreen (Android loading wasn't also appearing). I tried to use MiFlash to reflash the ROM and the same happended.
Thinking it was a random problem of MIUI I decided to move to Pixel Experience because I had used it before and I liked. In the same day of MIUI 10.3.1.0 (PEIMIXM) launch, Pixel Experience also launched a new whyred version (in the beggining of June, i think).
I did what was needed to successfully install the ROM according to the dev's thread:
-I downloaded all the needed files (MIUI 10.3.1.0 PEIMIXM firmware, Pixel Experience ROM, recommended modified TWRP version of the developer);
-Initially, I installed TWRP via fastboot mode;
-I flashed the firmware;
-I wiped the partitions Cache Dalvik / ART, System, Cache, Data, vendor;
-I flashed Pixel Experience ROM;
-I wiped Internal Storage;
-I rebooted the device.
After those steps, I couldn't get access to my "homescreen". Basically, my phone stays stuck at the Mi logo screen. And nothing happens.
Considering it could be a recovery problem, I tried to use Pitch Black Recovery (the latest version available for whyred) that supports Oreo and Pie. I used TWRP to flash this one, and after that I made all the steps above again and the same happened.
I'm now only available to flash MIUI (if it is Android 8.1). I can only flash Pixel experience versions that were released before the MIUI Pie stable for this device.
I really appreciate if you could help me!

You have a problem because of the firmware (likely).
The order was supposed to be something like this, from an OREO recovery and OREO FW:
In the recovery flash Pie firmware MIUI V10.3.1.0.PEIMIXM first and hit reboot to recovery. (so that firmware is really updated)
Now flash latest PIE rom (PixelExperience_whyred-9.0-20190604-1615-OFFICIAL.zip at time of writing). Do not reboot
Flash OrangeFox-R9.0-2-whyred-MIUI-Pie.zip. It will automatically reboot into recovery again.
I would:
-Flash the orange fox recovery from here (OrangeFox-R10.0_1-Stable-whyred.zip):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...ment/twrp-orangefox-recovery-project-t3837547
It's supposed to support both oreo and pie. It should reboot in recovery again after flashing.
-Flash the FW (fw_whyred_miui_HMNote5Global_V10.3.1.0.PEIMIXM_d4d 2c9f2aa_9.0.zip), hit reboot to recovery
-Flash your PixelExperience_caf_whyred-9.0-20190709-1819-OFFICIAL.
Reboot into system and check.
If not, I would try reflashing the recovery with a proper OREO firmware and then
In the recovery flash Pie firmware MIUI V10.3.1.0.PEIMIXM first and hit reboot to recovery. (so that firmware is really updated)
Now flash latest PIE rom. Do not reboot
Flash Flash OrangeFox-R9.0-2-whyred-MIUI-Pie.zip (pie) or V10 which is supposed to be oreo/pie. It will automatically reboot into recovery again.
Based on whatever mess it is now, you might have to do some wipes, try first the above then report.

Hummm. it's happening a suspect thing! I made all the steps above, and I'm now flashing the ROM itself, and recovery is stuck at "Unpacking the original boot image".

Wait a bit maybe.
Just to make sure, verify the checksum of your downloaded files or redownload them again and compare the size. Just to be sure you have the proper files and they are completed.

It's everything right with files.
I'm still waiting... And it's strange because it's stuck on "Unpacking boot image" and the problem I was facing was associated with booting the system.

Can you check /tmp/recovery.log? ideally copying that in a pastebin.
We should look into doing the proper cleaning from recovery as well, (wipe, advanced wipes).
Do you have any data to save or can you clean flash all without problem?

I can flash all. The need files are on the SD card. How do I check /tmp/recovery.log?

You're supposed to adb pull /tmp/recovery.log.
Might not be needed, if you can simply do a wipe/advanced wipe, and a format of /data.
Note: it might not be necessary and you will delete things, it's just " the fastest way".
then you have to go through the flashing, again, I would even redo the fw as described earlier.

I could flash the ROM but, still in bootloop... But it's curious! If I let my smartphone turned off for 10-15 minutes and then turn it on, Pixel Experience works and boots successfully but after some minutes of using, starts crashing, and reboots, again in bootloop

Hm it is indeed strange, as if something is corrupted...
What's the status now?
Any changes?

Still the same.... I tried again, with other recoveries.... Always the same thing! Bootloop.
But if I let it turned off for some time I can boot it (but after some minutes it automatically restarts and gets in bootloop again )

It's clearly not related to recovery, at least, not directly.
-Check what "wipes" you have done, and ideally do all of them + format data (you can always reencrypt later). Then, reboot, and redo the flashing of everything.
-Another option would be to flash with "miflash" which I think will also restore some boot things. In that scenario, you are on your own because I don't know about ARB in your case and all potential issues.
I can only say that I did a "miflash" when I used to have ARBv3, and it went fine (I had to redo the recovery, etc... after).

Download the latest version of Global Stable - Fastboot images. Flash them in fastboot mode using the 'flash_all_...' script file that is included in the downloaded files. Be sure not to lock the bootloader. After it flashes successfully, flash the latest TWRP recovery. Boot to recovery and FORMAT data, then reboot and let the system setup. This should take care of any missing files/structure issues.
