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

Hello guys, I'm new around here.
This happened the day before yesterday, I had RRemix 6.1 installed on my phone, all of a sudden, mid use, most of the apps stopped responding and nothing was working, so I shut the phone down. Then when I tried to turn on the phone, it wouldn't get past the RRemix loading screen. I waited for a while, then I tried getting into TWRP recovery. In that, the TWRP logo would come then it would suddenly switch to loading the RRemix.
As the RRemix wouldn't open up, I tried flashing MIUI10 global beta through the fastboot method using MiFlash Tool, the flash wouldn't complete so I flashed it manually using fastboot commands through CMD. Then the phone just switched off completely, the display doesn't show a single thing. After a while, randomly, while it was connected to my PC, the red LED started blinking and in Device Manager the device was detected as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008". I searched around and found that this was supposed to be EDL mode.
So, I fired up MiFlash Tool again and tried flashing MIUI10 Global Beta onto it, it returned a message that the flash was successful. The phone is supposed to automatically boot up after the flash according to Xiaomi, but my phone didn't. Now what can I do ? I tried flashing the MIUI9 Stable release too, but even that didn't work.
Thanks a lot.

Try flash an older stable rom from miui and hope one boots so u can use phone or flash again to another rom. Download a few different ROMs try them all maybe one is bound to boot up
Test point Only then you can recover your phone.

I don't exactly understand what you mean, if I got it into EDL, what's the point of Test Point method, and I don't really understand what the Test point method does.
It will be real helpful of you to explain that to me..
Thanks.
Test point are two point in the mother board.
If you communicate the two points with a wire the phone enters in bootloader mode and you can flash the rom again.
(google test point redmi note 4 and you will get a full imaged guide)
Only for snapdragon version.
I did it succesfully one year ago.

I did try that, but my phone already shows up as the "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" so it didn't really make any difference, the flashing was successful and the phone still didn't start.. Is there anything else that I can try ?

hi everyone, so i am having an issue with my xiaomi mi a1. I rooted the device in order to install the pixel 3 g-cam, yesterday i tried to unroote it and to lock its bootloader but as i was doing this, the system was destroyed. i flashed the device and got it working, the my GF tried unrooting it from magisk app and i dont kow what happened it appeared th co command symbol. I flashed it again and everything was normal util the mi screen appeared and then the android one logo show. the next thing that happended was the advise of corruption, the mi screen and android logo. again and again so on so forth. i've flashed the device, several times and nothing changes. i've locked and unlocked the bootloader, and nothing. I even tried stock recovery options but resuts in the same. what esle can I
do ?
I may be late but something like this happened to me as well.
I got my phone bricked and because I was in school the phone was stuck on booting screen for a long time. When I got back the phone's battery was dead. I put it on the charger and it wasn't doing anything, all of a sudden it starts to blink red light (sign it's in edl mode) I don't quite remember if I got into the fastboot and then flashed miui 9 beta with a pc through the miui application idk what it's called and after the installation was over it worked. It could be a problem with not being in the right mode (as I said previously it's either edl or fastboot) or it could be because of a problem with that miui version
Maybe Anti-Roll back problem?
Hello to all ,
I need help for my phone.. I'm using Xiaomi Redmi note 5 .
The story is I already unlock the bootloader , install pixel experience rom in it, and used for months now. But something happen with the update cuz of the error 7 thing on the twrp
So I try to find a solution and find how to fix it by using some tools that you edit and delete the "assert" thing which they call it.
BUT.. that thing won't change anything but yes it fix the error 7 on twrp and you can flash the update rom but once you reboot it stuck on mi logo.
I try everything and my phone end up on the logo .
So , I try to used the fastboot thing and what happen is..
After I try the method "fastboot' and miflashtool , my phone how do I said this.?? It's becoming unnatural.
It goes on .. but the bootloader is lock . Buuttt my phone is still on the custom rom which the latest update of the pixel firmware. My twrp is gone too.
But still I can use my phone like usual.
Can anybody tell me what happen and is it possible to flash to global rom and get back to miui ?
And is it possible to unlock bootloader again ?
Are you on miui or pixel experience?
how is your phone on custom rom when you flashed miui through miflash tool?
Sir Try Mi-flash-unlock to unlock your phone.Boot your phone into Fastboot and try to unclock it.Then You need to download Redmi 5 plus MIUI 10.2.1 fastboot (.tgz) file.Extract that file in Pc. Download Mi flash tool and install in pc.Place the extracted file in desktop.Open that file and copy that location (it's like Desktop/user/....) then boot your phone into Fastboot then connect your phone into pc.Then refresh in MI flash tool.It will show device like (056873).Then see the bottom right of the MI flash tool choose Clear all.Then click flash button.wait for some time.Finally it will show completed or some error do not panic .wait for some time your phone will boot and finally go to the system
i try to flash pixel experience, the developer guide to flash firmware+vender zip after flashing the ROM zip, as per the guide I flash the ROM ZIP and firmware zip, after flashing the firmware, mobile rebooted and nothing to show in display. so i try to force boot in to recovery. the screen nothing to show. so i try to boot on fastboot. still nothing to show in mobile screen even the fastboot logo. i connect my mobile to computer, and i noticed the HS-USB QDLoader 9008 driver was installed. so guess it was in EDL mode, then try to flash the stock ROM using MI flash tool And get the error " cannot receive hello pocket." "object reference not set to an instance of an object " so i try to flash using QFIL , still not get any improvement, so kindly guide any possible to unbrick my phone.
Hey there I'm kinda having the same problem, any progress on your end ? I waited a few days for the battery to die and then connected to MiFlash but it keeps asking for an EDL authorized account, which is apparently a rarity. Exploring other options such as bypassing EDL authorization, long shot but what could be worse eh ...

Could you solve the problem? I have the same problem. Did you find information or a method to bypass EDL authentication?

What version of mi flash are you using? If it is the one from 2017 then it will not work as it isn't compatible with EDL.
Update miflash to latest or at least 2018 version to use EDL mode
