Drivers for Windows 10 - Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers

Hello!
I know this must be a stupid question but couldn't find the solution!
I was trying to unlock the bootloader but it looks like the phone is not recognized by the system (adb devices find it correctly but when I give the "fastboot flashing unlock" command, it will wait for the device indefinitely).
The phone is not recognized in Control Panel -> System -> Devices (it has the yellow triangle warning) so I tried installing the official Xiaomi USB Drivers (downloaded xiaomi_usb_drivers.rar from the official xiaomi website) but it would not succeed.
So what drivers should I install? And where to find them?
Thank you

Download pdanet for windows
It'll automatically install drivers
Connect your device in fastboot mode and install pdanet in your pc

Thanks. Do you mean "PdaNet for Android" by JuneFabrics?

You need to install fastboot drivers. When you are in fastboot you need to go 'device manager' or something like that on PC. Find android and use update drivers bottom option (install manualy) and point where your fastboot drivers are.

Fastboot/ rooting help

Hello XDA,
I just got a v10 and while i'm new to the phone, I'm not new to rooting/ installing custom roms etc. But for the life of me I cant unlock to bootloader of this phone which if im not mistaken, is the only way to get root. I just installed adb on my windows 10 laptop and I'm trying to enter fastboot on my devices by plugging in the power cable and pressing the volume down and I'm greeted with a screen that says"*welcome to fastboot mode for bootloader unlock: *quick Guidance...etc" I cant exit out of this mode so I assume this is fastboot mode? It doesnt look like any fastboot mode Ive ever seen. Anyways when trying to run the fastboot oem unlock command, I am stuck on "waiting for device". I honestly dont know whats wrong with my setup but if someone could help that would be fantastic. I have tried installing the Lg united drivers and samsung drivers but they dont seem to work. Please advise if you could.

I looked online at some forums about this issue and I got it fixed Here what the post said
1. Connect your device while in fastboot mode.
2. open the device manager (ctrl + X on windows 10)
3. find your device "XXX ADB Device"(Mine was "Alcatel ADB Device" but it can be anything)
4. click on the arrow
5. right click on the Android Bootloader Interface
6. Click on "Properties"
7. Go to "Driver" Tab
8. Click "Uninstall"
9. Mark the "Delete the driver software for this device
10. Click OK
11. Disconnect and Reconnect your device from the cable
12. Windows device manager should show an item in the list that simply says Other devices, and will expand to "Android". Do those next steps quickly! (OR: just disconnect from the internet. Some people report it works). You have between 5-10 seconds until Windows changes it to another driver. If device manager changes the driver to "Kedacom USB device" (or something else, start over from step 8).
13. Right click and choose "Update driver software" -> Browse my computer for driver software -> Let me pick from a list...
14. Choose "Kedacom USB device" (or something else that seems logical)
15. Uncheck "Show compatible hardware"
16. Choose "Android bootloader interface version _" that is the latest (should be 28.8.2016).
17. Hopefully it will work for you
Extremely helpful and it solved my problem. Here the original thread, its post number 33

So, what do we lose in this process? Granted it's been reported that the camera is working without the need for a DRM fix, but do we lose other things like video and sound enchantment options?

Absolutely yes
From the use I note that the recovery doesn't read the internal data, but only the sd card. I still don't understand if it's the firmware that has bugs or the twrp that still isn't calibrated for Adroid Pie.
Edit: I found in the XDA site the recovery for the new firmwre and everything works fine here

Sorry, but the requirement is always with unlocked bootloader?Thanks
Wait... I'm confused. I need an unlocked bootloader for this correct? Also, am I missing a step? I can't seem to unlock the bootloader. I have the key from Sony, but whenever I turn off the phone and try to enter bootloader mode (volume up + usb charger), the notification light turns blue, and that's it. Nothing appears on my screen, if I type fastboot devices, no devices appear as listed. And if I try to run the line of code, I'm just stuck "waiting for device" and nothing happens? Am I being stupid and missing something? Don't remember having this many issues with my htc m9.

Are your drivers properly installed reason I am asking is you're not getting a return when you type in fastboot devices, go back to you developer setting, revoke your debugging , then reinstall your drivers turn on USB debugging and see what happens?

Hmm, I think I know why it wasn't working? I got the xperia xz1 drivers off of the sony developer website, and I went to device manager and tried to do the legacy driver install, but I keep getting "This device cannot start (code 10)" Maybe that's the issue? And if so, am I installing it wrong or something?

I was under the impression that flash tool is used to get the latest version of the pi (which I already have as the update rolled out a few days ago)? Not for unlocking the bootloader? As for my bootloader, I'm stuck on that step. I'm following sony's steps on unlocking the bootloader, however, I'm stuck on the fastboot as my device isn't recognized. I guess I'll try again from the top, uninstall all the current drivers and reinstall them again.
I also want to add, whenever I plug my phone in into bootloader mode, the pc does recognize that a device is connected as the notification pops up, but again, "fastboot devices" returns nothing. Is there supposed to be a screen for the bootloader? Or is it just a black screen with the blue led?

Once you get your driver's fixed, just follow the directions given by Sony.. Your phone screen will remain black as all info will be done on your computer..

Absolutely no, flashtool doesn't need to unlock the bootloader, rather serves to re-lock it in some xperia devices. To unlock it you have to use cmd commands in adb & fastboot, but you can find it here in the XZ1 section.
The cell screen remains black and a blue led appears if you connect in fastboot mode, if you connect in flash mode the screen remains black, but a green LED appears.
if you have problems with the recognition of the device on your PC I can link my guide, it's in italian but if you use google translator you understand it well here

[Q] can someone provide me a guide how to unlock bootloader. i got some problem here

i tried to do it my self. follow an instruction from a official website and other
https://developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/get-started/unlock-bootloader/
https://www.getdroidtips.com/how-to...-plus-i3213-i4213-i4293-i3223/#Pre-Requisites
which i got stuck at, when i boot into bootloader mode . the phone seem to restart and appear only black screen with blue indicator.
then i tried to check if it still connect to adb or not, with {adb devices} its not listed there
PS.
-the drivers work fine
-my Xperia 10 plus model is I4293
The LED is all you get. The screen stays black for fastboot and flash modes. Not sure why adb devices isn't working.

one thing weird
i using a Xperia Tool (Xperia Companion) and it display the text that my phone need to unlock the screen or allow to use data tranfer
which i already check a USB debugging to be on, and every time i connect it to my PC, it still ask me a permission to be allow or not
maybe this is a problem here ?
It cant be listed in ADB if the android isnt running.
Blue LED means fastboot mode. So to check if the device is in that mode you do "fastboot devices".
Once the LED is blue you can unlock the bootloader with the command "fastboot oem unlock 0x<insert your unlock code>".

Yes, I am using Windows 10, but let me clarify my understanding first.
From what you said, I need to manually install the ADB driver by Device Manager > Portable Devices > Xperia 10 Plus > Browse my com... And that driver, I should get it from Sony site, but I only see Xperia 1, 5 and 8, not 10 nor 10 Plus.
However, I could see my phone by using command adb devices through minimal ADB and Fastboot. Does this imply that the driver is installed already?

Adb and fastboot are not the same thing so you have to get fastboot driver.
I have no clue where this driver is as I use Linux only which includes the driver by default.

I was using windows 10. From what I can remember, my problem is that I didn't install driver correctly (I'm not sure which one). I am not really sure if this fastboot driver the one I used. I saw my device in Device Manager, but I got waiting on device... just like you. So what I have done was locate my device in Device Manager and install the sony driver over that device. If sony's driver was not the correct one, then it was another driver that I can't remember, but the instruction still the same. Sorry for an unclear message, but I can barely remember anything now.

Question I screwed up...moto X40 bricked / Any EDL mode available?

Hi guys sadly I completely softbricked my motorola X40 phone i'm a idiot.
I flashed to a wrong firmware file (edge 30 pro) and re-locked bootloader then found it phone doesn't properly boot anymore.
I can boot it in fastboot mode but flashing in normal fastboot mode doesn't work with locked bootloader and lenovo rescue tool can't help me either.
Edit: Weirdly I managed to boot it up and it shows as a "motorola edge 30 pro" and I can control my screen with a USB mouse.
But when I try to enable "OEM unlocking" in developer options the settings app just crashes.
But my problem stays the same, i'm still stuck with a locked bootloader
Is there any chance to trick this phone into EDL mode or any working blankflash?
Any suggestions? i'd appreciate it

It doesn't matter if the oem lock is on to flash the stock firmware.
You can directly flash the right firmware via fastboot. Lenovo rescue tool may not flash...

Hi thanks for the response, how to flash directly stock firmware? which method should I use? This is what I get when I try to flash anything through adb (phone in fastboot mode) I added a screenshot from adb in windows and took a picture from my phone to show in which fastboot mode it shows.
Tried several things flashing directly from adb but it always says permission denied because of the bootloader lock, maybe i'm doing something wrong.
It's not adb, it's fastboot mode.
Where you are is right.
It will be in the mode in the screenshot of the device, that's right.
Use the one in the file i gave you.
Here are the guidelines.
01. Download the latest Firmware from lolinet
02. We extract the firmware.zip, open servicefile.xml and copy the contents into this website
03. Download the mfastboot.rar ADB i gave and put it in the rom folder you extracted.
04. We put the flashfile.bat we created (Step 02. Extract, open servicefile.xml and copy the content to this site) into the rom folder you extracted.
05. Reboot your phone into fastboot (adb reboot fastboot or press and hold Power + Volume Down)
06. Everything is ready, click on the ''flashfile.bat'' file.
07. Don't disconnect the phone until the update has finished.

Yea indeed well thanks anyway, my only hope left is a third party recovery tool that supports this phone in future.
I'll put the X40 in my closet until then and buy another new phone in the meanwhile don't have much of a choice lol.
Hello!
Did you try RSDLite tool to flash firmware?

I tried but the issue is there that it doesn't detect the port / device on the RSDlite tool.
Meanwhile I can see in devicemanager in windows the phone is detected in ADB/fastboot mode but RSDlite tool needs some portmode to succeed, the tool says it doesn't detect my device. I can't seem to connect it with that port RSDlite tool needs, also tried general ADB drivers but didn't help either. I also saw in one topic to make it work with RSD tool you need to install the qualcomm drivers, but these drivers don't work with this phone in normal fastboot mode. In other words I can't seem to RSD tool recognise my phone on the needed port. I think this tool only works in EDL mode (+qualcomm driver) but my moto X40 doesn't yet support EDL mode I think.

=> I followwed this tutorial but @ Step nr.8 there isn't any port or device detected even when my phone is correctly in fastboot mode
I tried Generic ADB drivers and the official motorola USB drivers, both detected in devicemanager in windows but RSDtool lite didn't detect my phone.

Yeah let's hope my device model (X40) get's support soon
@mark332 Any idea's?
I have the same problem, because I did the same thing hahaha, I tried these methods and nothing was successful, I tried to use Lenovo's RSA, but it only installs the correct firmware and Fastboot, but when it comes to rescuing it just has a "Warning" message.

Guess we are in the same boat loll xp having indeed the exact same message. I think the RSA tool detects the right device but it checks for some sort of keys/verification and sees it isn't the right firmware so it stops flashing.
I have found out you can also enter recovery mode by selecting "recovery" in fastboot mode with the key buttons.
Then you need to press power button + down key for 3 seconds, then short the volume up key.
Youll get a other menu with also fastboot mode and adb sideload etc...
but again sadly neither fastboot or adb sideload did work for me
When I tried to flash the original firmware in sideload mode trough ADB it gives a"verification error"
In fastboot mode it says that it can't flash with locked device
I hope this info will be any useful for people stumble upon this topic in the future and maybe help to unbrick this phone.

Hey man thanks for your response, sadly i'm on a 64bit windows 11 version. Would it be any different than the 64bit driver vs 32bit you think? Because have tried this several times can't get RSD lite detect my phone . In device manager it's detected first as "fastboot rtwo s" and when the moto 64bit driver is installed it's detected as "motorola ADB interface" so it's correctly detect by the system.
My phone is also in fastboot mode never the less RSD lite tool doesn't detect anything
Guess I could try to install windows 10 32bit i'll keep this updated

I also have 64 bit Win11 machine with RSD Lite installed and it can't detect phone.
But when I connect it to my old laptop(Win10-32 bit,RSD Lite) phone is detected instantly.
Try to find someone who has machine with 32 bit Windows and try to rescue your phone.
Tip from professionals: RSD Lite works best with older version of a 32 bit Windows...

Just tried on my older 32bit computer with windows 10 and installed the 32bit driver for motorola. Sadly the issue is the same, RSD lite doesn't detect the moto x40. Where did you download the driver?
Motorola USB Driver for Windows 32-Bit/64-Bit - Driver Market
Download now the latest and official Motorola USB Driver for Windows. We shared the latest Motorola USB Driver for Windows.
www.drivermarket.net
Reinstall driver and restart PC(mandatory),it should work then.

Tried that too several times but thanks for the suggestion anyways.
Took my time also this evening to reinstall a clean windows 32bit version, installed 32bit moto driver again from your link.
Reboot, nope
Same issue, RSD lite doesn't detect anything while the driver and device is recognized in device manager whatever I tried last 2 weeks.
I also opened the phone and searched on the motherboard for EDL test points, no avail too.
I think the RSD tool lite or the usb driver needs a update for this device or someone needs to find out how to get this phone into EDL mode. This can take months maybe years who knows lol
I just gave up and bought myself a new phone (xiaomi 13)
