Stuck in Mi Recovery 3.0 with a stock device - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers

Hello,
This morning I turned off and on my phone (RN5 Global).
Now, If I try to start it, phone goes directly to Mi-Recovery 3.0 and, no matter how hard you try to restart, it always ends there.
More info:
- The phone is completely from stock. No root, no bootloader unlock, nothing.
- Mi-Recovery only let me Wipe All Data, so this would be an unfeasible option without first having recovered the data.
- My PC Suite does not recognize the phone.
- If I connect the mobile to the pc, 'adb devices' command says "sideload".
- If I try to make a backup by 'adb shell' it says "error: closed".
- I do not know if 'debug usb' is activated. I remember i activated it in the past, but I think that MIUI10 update deactivated it again.
- I can enter fastboot mode.
- I tried to open the phone, disconnect and connect the battery, but nothing has been fixed.
What can I do? My priorities now are:
1.- Recover the data (at least photos).
2.- Revive my phone.
Thank you.

Found this on MIUI, what do you think?

If your device is Redmi Note 5 from other country but India then it´s Whyred and this Forum is for Redmi 5 Plus/Redmi Note 5 (only India) that is Vince.
In the case I´m right and your device is Whyred (two rear cameras is a simple way to note it) then as far as I know you will need an EDL authorized account to flash a rom through MiFlash Tool.
Other tool that you can use is XiaomiFlash Tool by Francesco Tescari through Mi-Recovery but you will need too have enable USB debugging (maybe you have) but the same way you can flash a rom also you´ll lose all your data.
Adb shell works only in rooted devices, you can´t backup nothing in this state and fastboot mode is limited to just few commands like list device/reboot devices and nothing more in locked bootloaders.
In this scenario you have two things in order to solve this issue:
1- Highly probable loosing all your data.
- Doing format data through recovery and try to boot (data lost for sure)
- Flashing a rom through recovery with the mentioned tool (99% data lost probabilities)
- Flashing a rom through EDL; if you have Vince you can do it but if you have Whyred I don´t think so (if you choose second option "Flash without erase userdata" in MiFlash Tool I guess your data will be preserved)
2- If you enabled before USB debugging and binded your Mi account with device wait the time to unlock bootloader and maybe booting first of all in TWRP you can recover some data from your device, if you unlocked but first of all you boot on system for sure all your data will gone.

So what happened? Were you able to solve it? PLs share if you were...

I am also faced that situation.
When i tried to flash stock miui through fastboot it locked the bootloader and cant boot into rom then mi flash tool cant flash as boot loader is locked.
Worst part is in order flash another rom i need recovery, unable to reach developers option as rom not booting up.
Lost hope on the device
After all so many google searches and sleep less nights
I found application called mi pc suite china
Try to flash miui rom through mi pc suite mode
It says boot loader locked do you want to unlock
Finally it unlocked boot loader without booting into mobile.
In your case that will app will work. try it

Mi app recovery will not work on older phones like vince i suggest flashing through test point by removing the back cover and reconnect both points

how u solved your problem , i am stuck in same stage .. help please

I was stuck in Mi Recovery Mode 3.0 on my Mi Redmi Note 5.
Even after doing reboot to system, it wasn't going back to normal.
After scratching my head for a lot of time I decided to do the old school thing, i.e. REMOVING the SIM card and SD card and pressing the VOLUME DOWN + POWER KEY until the vibration occurred (NOTE: Mi logo will appear while you have pressed but keep the 2 buttons pressed until vibration occurred).

were any files deleted? and do you perhaps know if it would work on redmi note 7?

hello guys just look this video i solved it

Hi all,.
I also faced the same issue my redmi note 5 Pro which was on I believe MIUI 10 because it was never updated from the day it was purchased got stuck in bootloop and not getting ahead after recovery mode no matter how much time you reboot it was all working fine but some apps were updating such as youtube when this incident occurred I tried every solution like pressing keys pressing all three keys simultaneously or ADB method but none could work since the phone was locked also there was no USB debugging so adb method wouldn't work to also if an if ADB connected I couldn't flash because it will remove the data, in recovery mod you can see in option connect with MI Assistant but the Indian English version shown no connection so found one youtube video (channel name -" Ach Sharif ", video link-
which helped to install chinese version and and solved login issues I used Google translate translate to read the Chinese characters and understand what is going on I connected the device intending to take a backup backup but as no option was available I had to click on flash device so it downloaded upgraded recovery rom and automatically flash to MIUI 11 but still same problem then again I connected and upgraded to MIUI 12 and the phone was able to boot so the phone finally got fixed all data and all apps were intact and working as originally also all data of WhatsApp chats etc remained even the open apps at the time when problem happened were still present.
I believe guys this is the only solution to the problem because while flashing it replaces the recovery module of the rom which was corrupted earlier in my case when MIUi 12 installed not 11 I feel that it replaced recovery module due to update and it was able to work so please try once and I hope you get your files back, now lesson learned please do regular backups to live worry free life otherwise we will be spending time and energy here only.
I believe ADB methods or other methods won't work because they will flash and you won't be able to get data only flashing through recovery ROM not fastboot rom just like update package will be able to solve your problem if it is a software problem it will be can be fixed fixed this way only and saving data if it's a hardware problem such as power of all volume buttons are stucked you just get change and everything will be fine it happened in my other phone redmi Y2 so from speaking from experience thats all as I was going through trouble these things really help me so I thought to spend time in creating this guide please follow and I hope it will be solved.

You must open back cover( easily you can do it by hair dryer) and disconnect and connect again the battery, it will fix

Big bricked device problem on EDL Mode

I bricked my RN3Pro on AOSP Extended Rom so i started to flash Xiaomi official rom by MiFlash. That took me 2000seconds on MiFlash so i disconnected phone (to try it again). It crashed from fastboot mode to EDL (red led is blinking). And now.. My phone is undetectable on my PC and two notebooks. I have xiaomi drivers / google drivers, tried to add new android drivers. Nothing helps.
Trying to detect phone by MiFlash, adb, fastboot programs (some versions.. "minimal" too). Its still undetectable. Devices list is always empty. I don't think this is because of the drivers, this was ok before installing this bad xiaomi rom.
I need my phone tomorrow so please help me!
Just press power + volume Down
Then unlock bootloader and then reboot phone
I have the same issue, stuck on EDL (red led blinking) unable to be detected on anything, cannot use buttons to get into Fastboot or recovery.
Please help!!
Use test point method...... U will find the trick on YouTube...

Qilive(smartphone) how to root Q8 series tutorial(q8s5in4gp-q8s55in4g2)

1-step
in order to root these qilive devices you will need...
magisk manager apk v5.6.4
stock boot.img file
working ADB to unlock oem and flash
2-step
lets get to it
place the magisk.apk and the stock boot.img
in the internal memory of your phone (downloads)
if you like to keep stuff organized :good:
3-step
follow the vídeo tutorial and use magisk manager
to patch your stock boot.img it will output a new
boot.img that includes magisk Root (patched_boot.img)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BF4_hnKgjFA
ps: major ty to hovatek team for this great tutorial
step-4 use Google drive or usb OTG to get the patched_
boot.img to your PC and place it in the ADB folder
once you have oem(bootloader) unlocked just
rename the patched_boot.img to boot.img
step-5
unlock oem, these qilive devices wont unlock
the bootloader even if you enable it in DEV options
enable USB debug in dev options
you will need to use ADB commands
command- adb devices
serial appears
command- adb reboot bootloader
phone reboots to fastboot mode
command- fastboot devices
serial appears
command- fastboot oem unlock
(MAJOR WARNING the fastboot
oem unlock will wipe/reset/factoryreset/delete your data)
after you give the command small letters will appear
on the phone screen(yes or no) hard to read dont be hasty plz
use VOLUME+ to select and VOLUME - to confirm
note: when my phone ended the unlock it whent back to
that black screen where you choose fastboot-recovery-restart
and was stuck there, side keys did nothing if this happens
just long press the power key for 10 sec it will shutdown
then press power again to turn on
first boot after unlock will take longer then normal dont freakout
after you unlock small letters will appear during boot up saying the device
is not safe unlocked ,you can later use ( fastboot oem lock )
step-6
flash the patched boot.img with ADB
command- adb devices
serial appears
command- adb reboot bootloader
phone reboots to fastboot mode
command- fastboot devices
serial appears
command- fastboot flash boot boot.img
finished/ok
command- fastboot reboot
and voila you should now have magisk
installed in the app drawer, open it!!
step-7 run the install one final time from the
magisk manager and install magisk V16 using
recomended option it will verify/patch the boot image
Do NOT select the AVB 2.0 BOX it will bootloop the phone
and your done, enjoy your qilive rooted phone.
from this point on you can use the fastboot
command- fastboot oem lock
to remove the letters in boot up about the
device not safe unlocked
WARNING oem lock
will WIPE/FACTORY RESET again (god damn it!!)
ps: i had to install twice in a row,major pain in the ....
Repeat step 7 after Wipe/Reset
here is the stock boot for 2 qilive models
you can get the stock firmware for any qilive
at this site www.doc-doapi.com/EM/qilive/smartph...te_3m-fdd-cs_mul_20170818-110645_songlixin_PC
and get the recovery or boot from the unpacked firmware file
ps:my phone is the Q8SIN4GP AND ITS WORKING FINE
A VERY SPECIAL TY to topjohnwu (magisk creator), this man is nothing
short of a God damn genius!! , and if you can donate to him.
hope this helps other qilive users to root:highfive:
quick note on the qilive models, they have two model names
the cliente name in my case Q8SIN4GP
and the factory name in my model its 882912
in order to download the right firmware for your model
you need the factory model witch is what appears in the qilive
site above, it will be in the back of the phone or the original
box on a sticker just bellow the bar code, full model exempl
:Q8SIN4GP/882912 my firmware serves several models,
these Q8 models all start with 88xxxx WARNING
dont try this using the wrong firmware/boot file or you will DAMAGE your phone
Help with BOOTLOOP problems, if you find your self stuck in a bootloop
the phone wont go past the qilive logo and just stays there, dont freak out
you will loose your data but there is a way out
just keep pressing power + Volume up until a black screen with 3 options appears
when it does let go, use Volume + to select option and Volume - to confirm
select Fastboot or alternative select recovery and then select reboot to bootloader
both option will place your phone in Fastboot mode, once in fastboot mode
connect your phone to PC and use ADB commands to fix/bootloop
command- fastboot devices
serial appears
command- fastboot oem unlock (skip this if you use phone unlocked)
a confirm action option appears on the phones screen
use Volume up to say YES / or Volume Down to say NO
Warning oem unlock will WIPE/Factory reset your phone
once it finishes the phone will be stuck on the
Recovery/fastboot/restart screen just long press the power key
until the phone shuts down
start the phone again using Power + Volume up when the black
screen with the 3 options come up, let go and use Volume up to
select Fastboot mode and confirm using Volume Down
Once in fastboot connect your phone to PC and use ADB commands
command- fastboot devices
serial apears
Here you will flash the magisk patched_boot.img
the same image you used to root your phone
command- fastboot flash boot boot.img
it will say finished-ok (or similar)
command- fastboot reboot
the boot up time will be longer than normal
but the phone should now complete the boot
and present the inicial setup screen, select language
enter your mail, the usual bla bla...
any way at this point just repeat step 7
to get root running again
sp flash tools v5.1716.

hi phonedriller,
...well, i must have been an unlucky fisherman
an app i installed ended up giving me a soft brick (bootloop between qilive icon opening screen - btw still with the "warning" of "device is unsafe etc", i.e. oem still open - and black screen, qilive opening screen etcetcetc)
have cleaned cache; went for factory reset; etc
BUT: am presently stuck when trying to go via ADB (which used to work perfectly before) that somehow the usb drivers don't want to get installed properly. as a consequence, desktop cannot see devices.
and i cannot, for the sake of me, remember how i had succeeded before installing usb drivers.
could you please help?
thx

PS: adb will not work if the phone is not booting to the OS
it will work if you manualy place the phone in fastboot AKA bootloader
MODE ,you see if it does not boot to OS then usb service is not working
use power + Volume up to enter the black menu
use the Volume up to select fastboot(bootloader) volume - to confirm
connect the phone to your PC
flash the boot.img, the same boot.img used to root (patched by magisk)
to see is adb is ok just run - fastboot devices
if a serial is presented then all other stuff should work
step 1 - reflash the boot img
step 2 - after the flash finishes - fastboot oem lock
message on the phone screen, confirm yes to lock
OEM
step 3- press power until it turns off
it should now complete the start up (boot)
if not working this method let me now
you can still flash the full factory firmware
using SP Flash Tool v5.17xx

dearphonedriller,
thank you so much for your speedy help.
followed the steps given by you. all is well, as you predicted, until step 3.
however:
phone (now without the "orange state" message, i.e. oem locked) still bootloops and short of ADB "fastboot devices" the desktop doesn't see the phone (and driver installation continues to fail), as per your PS (thanks!) i guess flashing the full factory firmware ("RC-mt6737...zip" quoted by you in your very first post) is next.
would you please point me to a basic-for-noobs tutorial or instruct me on the step-by-step commands/procedures using this zip file?!
HUGE thanks

thank you, phonedriller
everything worked perfectly via SPFlash Tool.
and, referring back to our above questions re the possibility of getting TWRP onto the phones, a developer friend of mine writes me this:
>try to flash TWRP:
>Download following files from this link:
>https://mega.nz/#F!qZIgnJRK!5apBfYo1je0ytg-wmA6JMQ
>- Odin3 v3.12.3 (Complete folder)
>- twrp-3.2.1-0-Q8S55IN4G2-20180318.tar
>1. Start your Phone into download mode
>2. Start Odin (Odin3 v3.12.3\Odin3.exe)
>3. Click on Options and unmark Auto Reboot
>4. Click AP and select twrp-3.2.1-0-Q8S55IN4G2-20180318.tar
>5. Press Start and wait until finished (Reset or OK!)
>6. Restart your phone immediatly to recovery mode
>7. In TWRP Recovery click on mount
>8. Set the checkbox checked at system (that system is mounted)
>9. go back and click on advanced
>10. Open file manager
>11. navigate to system/build.prop and click on build.prop
>12. Click on chmod
>13. type: 0644 and hit the accept button on screen or at the virtual

>14. restart your phone
i haven't tried this, but am wondering whether it might seem "reasonably possible" when reading through it.
thanks

Do you perhaps have link to Q8S5IN4GP stock rorm? Mine came with malware installed on it. I want to see if those were chinese who preinstalled or or was it decided by Auchan.

On my phone it came from factory and on the firmware file on 2 models , however only kasperky complains about malware on an system app called Helper bla bla bla i think its a false positive(i think) as no other antivirus or playstore ever found anything,but hey better investigate and be safe then sry right :good: maybe a ported cyanogen rom, ive look at a few rom port tutorials but my knowhow is limited + dont even have a working twrp yet, avg/avast/malwarebytes and a few others ,only kaspersky detects malware.

I had issues with adds being displayed at home screen and I was not able to close them. I had to use NetGuard to find that FOTA talks to 'adsup' and it is a known malware provider. I learned that some of the system apps try to talk with Alibaba servers and AdOppo (whatever it's called). Kaspersky might not be wrong, actually.
I'm trying to download stock firmware, but I don't know the file name. The website with it is locked, so unless I know exactly what I need, I cannot download it.

On my phone it came from factory and on the firmware file on 2 models , however only kasperky complains about malware on an system app called Helper bla bla bla i think its a false positive(i think) as no other antivirus or playstore ever found anything,but hey better investigate and be safe then sry right :good: maybe a ported cyanogen rom, ive look at a few rom port tutorials but my knowhow is limited + dont even have a working twrp yet, avg/avast/malwarebytes and a few others ,only kaspersky detects malware.

I guess the best thing would be a lineage or cyanogen ported rom(clean),ps i flashed the phone 2 times because of popups/adds and battery drain,however im aware that having root and installing tones of crasy stuff can fu.. Up any phone cheap or flagship,thus the firmware flashes,i discovered that having malwarebytes(premium)free for 30days keeps the phone clean and working fine,it seems that one is forced to buy from a main stream brand or risk this kind of thing,little to no support,no updates at all,bad security,the problem is certain apps if removed resoult in boot loop like this Helper app

Ps use root + apps2sd or titaniumbackup to stop/disable the bad apps and replace them with playS app,not possible on all apps of course

I'm thinking about Android 8.1 with it's Treble project. I might not be knowledgable enought to compile and flash it, though.

Flashing is super easy use spflashtools or. Odin compiling a Rom is not , were you able to get the original firmware? You will need the original firware to get the boot and partition info from what i read so far
Unfortunately not. I will ask at the shop where I bought it how to contact tech. It should be freely available. I don't understand why Qilive restricted access to firmware.
I'll post when I learn anything.
Well, you can download the firmware if you know the file name. The bad news is, it seems the stock firmware has malware preinstalled. If there is anyone who could help confirm it. I have the ROM, and I can upload it to Google Drive if needed.
Hi all,
I'm coming back to a question lingering since the very first post here and mentioned again in post #9:
Is there a successful way to install TWRP on this Qilive model?
Re this topic:
- has anybody tried/has anybody been successful with the procedure described in post #9?
and
- has anybody seen the following TWRP builders' version (do an in-page search on Q8S55IN4G2)
https://twrpbuilder.github.io/fr/downloads/twrp/
with the download belonging to it
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=890129502657591798
???
any successful installations to report???
Wouldn't THAT be great!!??
thanks

System crashed and not rebooting on Redmi 5 Plus - tried almost everything

My system crashed when I was typing in Whatsapp and since then the phone is trying to reboot but is stuck eternally in the boot screen with the Mi and Android logo. I only had 100 MB free space, so maybe the system cannot boot because of that?
- The newest version of Mi PC Suite cannot connect and an older MiPhoneAssistant version is only able to flash the ROM.
- I tried to clear caches with fastboot but it says "device is locked. Cannot erase". Also flashing TWRP is not possible.
- When trying to start adb shell in bootloader mode it only says "error: closed".
- It is possible to start adb shell when the phone is stuck in the boot screen, but without root permission I cannot access the data folder
So I really tried a lot, but as this whole topic is new to me, maybe someone has another idea? I once already successfully recovered encrypted files from an old Windows partition and I didn't imagine that this would be so difficult on a phone. I only need my notes from the MIUI Notes app, (almost) all the other stuff was backuped.
Is your phone bootloader is locked?

Yes, otherwise I would have flashed another one
So finally I had to use the testpoint method (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AE4JhUbZ_LQ) to flash a new ROM, but all data ist lost .

Bootloop problem on Xiaomi Mi8 Lite

Hello,
Just to put in case, currently I have a Xiaomi Mi8 Lite, Global ROM, Globad version (or at least that was described in Amazon) for a few weeks only. Last Saturday I received a notification on the new OTA MIUI update to version 10.3.1.0. I installed it in a normal way, it rebooted and then the Mi Recovery 3.0 menu popped up, with only 3 options: Reboot system (which takes takes you back to the same menu), Wipe Data and connect to Mi Assistant (which doesnt' work when connecting to PC). Appart from this, I have access to Fastboot by Vol- + Power button.
I have guarantee and I will return it back, so that doesn't worry me, the biggest problem is all the data I have there. I didn't have any back-up of my information/photos... nor uploaded in the cloud, and I really need to get them back.
I have tried to access through adb and get them via pull, but unfortunately I had not activated USB debug mode. Moreover, I can't install TWRP as the bootloader is locked, and if I want to open it, it will wipe all data.
To sum up, I have no USB debug enable, bootloader is locked and I want to save the data, anyone knows if there's a way to do it? Would it be possible to activate USB debugging via adb/fastboot somehow while on recovery?
Sorry if anything's unclear, and thanks in advance for any help!

up!
1. Hi , us I know that is not posible when USB debugging is not active !
2. If you are thinking about unlocking bootloader that will wipe all your data!
3. For problem that your device is stuck on recovery maybe bacause you updated your device with low that 40% and it is suck some way.
I should try in your place just to flash boot.img from 10.3.1.0 with fastboot and see if your device is boot up , so just to boot normaly to backup your data and after that do factory reset but remove all accounts !!! After that put your phone on charger and make sure your battery is fully charged, and then flash full stock firmware and again wipe data and do factory reset.
Download stock firmware from here:
https://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.3.1.0.PDTMIXM/miui_MI8LiteGlobal_V10.3.1.0.PDTMIXM_8f2efd3fd2_9.0.zip
Extract just boot.img and logo.img from (firmware upgrade folder) .
Do at your own risk ! ( I'm not responsible if you somehow lost your data!)
I face the same problem, the phone started to stuck in a bootloop overnight
Even if I try to enter to Fastboot it will reload in 2 sec
Any idea what to try? (it's stock, bootloader not opened, USB debugging is switched off)

Error, find device manager currpted, your device is unsafe now. Miui 11?

Hi, I moved from custom ROM, pixel experience andriod 10 to miui 11 official.tgz using miflash tool.
When I first boot, I saw. Device manager is currpted, your device is unsafe now. I saw WiFi, rotation sensor not working too.
After a couple of re flashing again. Same problem. No WiFi .
Than I tried again to flash with an option miflash tool , "clean all and lock". This too didn't worked. And my bootloader locked.
Same problems ...
WiFi not working , will tap icon ,but won't connect or find networks
sensor is not working
Saw again at first boot, Find device manager is currpted , you device is unsafe now ,
Now, my bootloader is locked. Tried with old account that have used multiple times . I didn't work.
Signed for new one , through Facebook. When I try to unlock in DEVELOPER OPTION ,
Nothing happen, pop says preparing to add new account.
I tried to mi unlocktool, it says add account device first

Hi!
Something very similar happened to me a few days ago. After unsuccessfully trying to install Havoc 3.0 rom (Android 10) on my device, I decided to come back to Miui 11. Then I found this weird message, but instead of "device manager" I think in my case it said "...storage is corrupted...". I was lucky not to lock the bootloader. The solution was flashing via fastboot an old Miui rom, a Marshmallow one. Thay solved the problem. Keep on trying to unlock the bootloader. Good luck!
I had same problem and found an easy solution! Your presist partition is corrupt...do the following:
1. fastboot flash latest MIUI 11 firmware with miflash
-you will see the error message...ignore it for now
-if you are on latest MIUI 11 then ignore step 1
2. turn OFF the phone and boot into fastboot mode (volume down + power)
3. Connect phone to pc
4. download atached archive and unpack to a folder on your pc
-in folder you will see a file named "RedMi Note 4 & 4X EDL Mode"...with phone in fastboot mode and connected run that file...screen on phone will turn off and red light will blink
-now you are in "edl" mode
5. Open miflash tool and select folder that you unpacked from my archive...select flash all and flash your phone
6. After few seconds miflash will show flash done...you are good to go
Phone will turn off...disconnect it and press power button for about 8-10 seconds and phone will boot...done...no more error :good::fingers-crossed:
Hope this helped
