[GUIDE] [VIOLET] Recover from The system has destroyed screen on Note 7 Pro - Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion

This guide is to help you recover from “The system has destroyed screen” on Redmi Note 7 Pro
I presume the bootloader is unlocked on your device.
The things you need are (Links are provided below):
1: VB meta and Peter’s TWRP (zip)
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1kd9H2cBsjkN-9oa2_6Sj8OlXLTfpRjNN
2: Platform tools (latest)
https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
Install Platform Tools to windows
First turn off the phone, and put it to fastboot mode by pressing the “Power button" and holding the "Volume down button" and release them when the fastboot mode screen appears.
Connect the phone to PC by USB cable, Place the “vbmeta.img” in a folder, hold shift and right click the blank space in the folder and select “Open powershell window here” (command prompt for windows 7)
Type fastboot devices and enter , you will see your device in the list.
Enter the command “fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img” and press enter.
After flashing vb meta, Its time to flash TWRP to retain the ability to flash rom again. To do that, place the “recovery.img” file in the same folder as “vbmeta.img”. open the powershell again by the method above, enter the command “fastboot devices” to ensure the device is connected. After that, enter the command “fastboot flash recovery recovery.img”, you will get success message below.
Now hold the “Power button” and “Volume up Button” and release the “Power button” as soon as the redmi logo appears while still holding the “Volume up button” till the twrp logo appears.
Flash Rom and you are set.
If you are trying to flash MIUI,
Download latest MIflash tool here and install it on windows.
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=889764386195900328
Download latest fastboot rom for Note 7 Pro from below link and place the folder on desktop
http://en.miui.com/a-234.html
Open MIflash tool and put device to fastboot (steps to boot to fastboot are above), connect to pc via USB, click the refresh button on the flash tool and start.
The tool takes approx 400-500 seconds to complete , once its finished it will show in a green coloured text that its successfully completed.
Enjoy

I got this same issue and then I downloaded the newer fastboot from a third party site. I assume you would had installed ADB and Fastboot systemwide(The one that requires Y as an answer and runs in blue command prompt) That one is like 1.3. You need to install a newer fastboot for this command to work.
I am not sure which one was it that I had but I am adding the link to the same. Newer Fastboot and added vbmeta
Also, I didn't install the Peter's Recovery because I was installing Lineage OS and used the recover_twistloop with wrappedkey for the same
Original Thread Here: LinegaOS16_RN7Pro
One more important thing: I didn't use "fasboot boot <recovery>" for it. I turned off the device and then used "Power Key + Volume Up". At first it didn't work but after one reboot it worked, and this is the only method I am using to go into recovery NOT VIA FASTBOOT or from inside the system. You can try it but it didn't work.
“fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img”
P.S: I thought it was verify the first time I saw it.
Also, I really hope you are not going to install MIUI either via Fastboot or Recovery. If you are going to do check roll-back protection. First check your current roll back index and check the rollback in fastboot folder of the Fasboot ROM that you are going to install. More details here. WARNING. MUST READ THIS ARTICLE IF YOU ARE THINKING OF RE-FLASHING MIUI/EUMIUI AT ANY POINT OF TIME.
You will be doomed if you didn't read this. And not in a usual way like a bricked phone. You will need to visit the service center and maybe a month wait for the device to get fixed

Thanks for replying. I downloaded fastboot rom and flashed that with clear all and lock option.
Unlocked again, installed evolution rom and even tried aosipderpfest but whenever I tried installing magisk or after reboot phone stuck on phone is starting and it won't start, I can access settings but nothing else.
Finally wooed everything, installed EU rom then evolution rom. Then magisk now everything is smooth.

I installed the latest IN Global firmware
Now I have the message
"This MIUI version can't be installed on this device" and the unlock is gone
Now when I try with XiaoMiFlash I have error: "Flash xbl error"
And miunlock says 99% This device is not bound to this account
I don't know what to do now

Xbk eror is related to baseband lock. I saw one video where following was mentioned
Put phone in fastboot mode
In adb use command fastboot oemlock
After that reboot and follow the miflash method with bottom option erase and lock selected. You need to download fastboot rom.
After you set up the device again. Go to developer settings and enable oem unlock and bind the account from there

(bootloader) Device is already locked!
"Flash xbl error"
I tried
violet_images_V10.3.10.0.PFHCNXM_20190725.0000.00_9.0_cn
violet_images_V10.2.5.0.PFHCNXM_20190316.0000.00_9.0_cn

I tried to go back to miui11 from pixel experience(10) by flashing a fastboot rom using mi flashtool (clean and lock). the result of flashing is shown as successful but the device is not booting, instead it is showing 'the system has been destroyed'. i tried unlock the device using mi unlock and it unlocked succesfully and booted succesfully . then i locked the device using the command 'fastboot oem lock' and rebooted. but the eroor 'the system has been destroyed is coming'. after several attempts i found that locking bootloader is causing the error. can anybody tell why is this happening and way to succesfully lock my bootloader.

I have two Redmi Note 7 Pro devices. (Global Devices - A.K.A Indian Variant)
first device is unlocked but no custom rom installed like ever
second device is unlocked with lots of custom rom history
While trying to relock my bootloader with MIFLASH (clean all and lock) and Global firmware 11.0.8
First device firmware flash worked perfectly and bootloader is set to lock state - (Widevine status is L1 )
Second device as stated in OP . Flashing success but device showing "SYSTEM HAS BEEN DESTROYED". If i unlock the bootloader of the device then it boots normally but device is in unlock state (widevine status L3)
I think some modifications might have happened to some system partitions which causes the VBMETA - SRCLIST check failure.
ANY DEVS PLEASE LOOKS INTO THIS ISSUE ...
Yeah someone out there I"m trying to relock bootloader bcoz to get access to my corporate mails , netflix HD content and GPAY
(On other hand magisk is having CTS profile check failure as google changed the approach to check the unmodified system)
