How can I reinstall stock rom? I'm on Android 10 April Update stock. Noob - Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers

I'm on Android 10 april update and want to reinstall stock android 10 rom. My phone is not rooted, Bootloader locked and no custom recovery install.

The closest thing to reinstall for you is to perform a factory reset. If you want to reflash whole rom, unlock the bootloader and flash stock rom via fastboot. Not sure why would you want to do that though.

After installing April update (perviously on Android 10 march update) and using it for few hours, my phone got stuck so I rebooted by holding power down button. Error appeared " Can't load Andoid system. Your data might be corrupted". I was forced to factory reset and lost my data. Installed my apps again and reboot for some reason only to be presented by same error again. So I thought reinstalling rom might fix this error.

It would be useful to troubleshoot why the phone doesn't boot (with "adb shell logcat") - on fully stock phone it might be caused by some app or HW defect. Logcat should reveal the reason for crash. What's the status of your phone now?

Factory reset again, installed apps and rebooted it twice. Fortunately, it didn't happen again but I'm still worried. I didn't flash stock rom. Just factory reseted.

Enable ADB in developer settings so you can troubleshoot it if your phone crashes again.

[Q] Hard Reset with Odin? Is it possible?

Was just curious, was hopin to send my phone back in to att today (due to a power button that no longer works) since i got a replacement. Unrooted back to stock and deleted all of my photos and everything and then got stuck on a bootloop so im unable to do a hard reset. Unfortunately I can't even get into 3e recovery since my power button is broken, so is it possible to do a hard/factory reset to wipe the internal SD from odin or any other program? much appreciated
If the phone is on and booted up, you can do a wipe data/factory reset from the settings menu within the phone:
Menu > Settings > Privacy > Factory Data Reset in Gingerbread
Menu > Settings > Back up and reset > Factory data reset in ICS
If your phone is not on, there are several ways to boot it:
adb reboot
flash stock firmware in Odin with reboot checked
etc.
You can also get into recovery with:
adb reboot recovery

I'll look into adb recovery. The phone is not on for clarification. It's stuck in a permanent bootloop.

If it were my phone, I would flash the stock firmware package in Odin, with reboot checked. Once the flash completes, the phone should boot normally. Then you should be able to wipe data/factory reset from the phone.
or try the adb reboot recovery to see if that will work.
If you still have a bootloop after flashing stock again, then you may need to flash the full stock distribution. You don't say in the OP how the phone got into a bootloop, or what you flashed to stock from.

Apologies again for not being specific and I appreciate your efforts in going back and forth with me.
The reason my phone is currently in a bootloop was when I followed the process on your thread for preparing my phone to be sent back for warranty replacement. Using odin I flashed the stock image (UCKH7, and my flash counter reads NO which is good) and after the phone extracted the files and Odin said I was bone stock, my phone just continuously reboots on the att startup animation (which you predicted and outlined could be fixed by going into 3e recovery and doing a factory reset but since my power buttons rubbish, I can't select any options even if I do get into 3e recovery)
Edit: I also flashed to stock from AOKP and I even followed through your process a second time thinking that re-flashing the stock firmware would remove the bootloop, however no luck

You probably don't need the bootloaders. I think adb reboot recovery is your best option. Let me know if it works.

Even if he gets into recovery, how will he select any of the menu options with a broken power button?

I guess the only option is just take the phone back as is.

Yeah that's what I figured as well since I can't select any options. It's Alright, luckily I deleted anything personal before even doing the unroot. And the Odin flash definitely unlinked all of my account info from the phone so I was just asking for my own peace of mind and curiosity. Just dropped the phone off in the mail this morning, thank you both for your help. You guys rule.

Yeah I can't see any other option. Should be fine though...it has stock firmware and kernel on it now, even with the bootloop. He can just say, my phone went crazy and I don't know why!

Phone reboots when turned off...

Hi.
Met a problem with my GT-I9300. When I shut the phone off it just reboots. The phone was rooted and running a custom rom when this started. Now I have unrooted with mobile Odin and flashed a official firmware but the problem persists.
I have even tried a battery pull. When battery is inserted again the phone remains off til I push the powerbutton. But when I try to turn it off after this it just reboots again.
Anyone else had this? Tips on what to do?
I've never had any luck fixing this problem. I always had to wipe and flash. However, as a temporary fix, you can power off from recovery.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk
can I ask what you are doing when you turn it off?
Sent from the asylum
Just to clarify, even wipe the phone and restore it to stock completely by flashing official firmware doesnt solve it.
When I turn it off I hold powerbutton til i get the powermenu. From there I choose "turn off". Phone does what it should, screen goes off and everything, only a few seconds later the phone boots again.

If the phone was totally cleaned formatted sd card and stock firmware installed then its a hardware problem .
But my guess is it as not totally clean .
....................................
Clean Slate for those that balls up the firmware .Or need to return to service or decide if its hardware/firmware problem .
Backup data first if phone is working .
Boot CWM recovery
Mounts and Storage
Format cache data system sd card .
Remove battery
Boot to download mode
Open Odin
Install correct stock firmware .
jje
I have now tried to wipe and format sys/data/cach/sd in cwm. Flashed stock firmware via odin. Still same issue. Guess its hardware.
Thanks anyway.
This may sound strange, but is this the clock problem the Desire HD had.
In time settings, uncheck the auto update.
Change time & date to something random.
Power off and pull the battery before it reboots.
Give it a min, power up, reselect auto update and reboot.
Should be good to go. If its the same problem that is.

It happened also to me once. I flashed my rom in the same order as you did. But what my problem solved was, I made a wipe AFTER I installed the ROM. After that, I didn't had this issue anymore.
These are the steps I did...
- Get into the CWM recovery
- Wipe Data/factory reset
- Wipe Cache
- Wipe Dalvik-Cache
Hope it works also to you...
Solved
I solved it by flashing a later official firmware - XXALF6.

Hello,
i found a solution for that problem. You will lose some sd card files.
go to settings-storage-others (or other) and mark all files. Then delete them an go to downloadmode to reflash you firmware. Reboot and the problem is missing.

Your phone is not bricked. When the phone is stuck on the droid eye, hold the power button and the volume down key at the same time until it reboots. This will get you into bootloader mode. Press the volume down key to highlight recovery and press the power button to enter it. Once you're in recovery go ahead and restore a backup or reflash something new. Either way make sure to do a full wipe.

thats what i did i restored my backup and this is what happens. and i cannot push any files over to the phone because usb debugging is not enabled so there is no communication between the phone and computer at all
boot into recovery then use "adb push <path to rom> /mnt/sdcard/" to put a rom on the sd then install. Make sure you use a boot.img that came with the rom if it has one as it may cause problems if you don't.
Edit: you will need another rom for this and I would recommend reflashing a boot.img

USB debugging has nothing to do with ADB in recovery, recovery basically has its own kernel and ADB is always enabled. Are you saying ADB doesn't work in recovery? If so, it is probably a driver problem with your computer. Also, some phones randomly get corrupt /data/ partitions (mine used to get them until I started using DSB's stock kernel with system write) and the only way to fix it is to do a factory reset or restore a backup. This might be what happened to you. If so just do a factory restore and see if it will boot.
Perhaps reflashing recovery? Worth a try if ur still having problems, also try installing then uninstalling htcs sync app.

Just be sure to re lock before you flash the ruu

Bricked after OTA

Hey,
So I updated my Nexus 9 with today's OTA, after which I'm greeted with the dead android 'No command.'.
I've attempted to wipe the cache data and factory reset from the recovery menu, and factory reset from the power + volume down menu.
My boot-loader is locked as I've never felt the need of rooting or running custom roms - so the tablet is entirely stock.
I also attempted to run fastboot which is throwing errors due to the boot-loader being locked.
I tried to re-apply the patch using adb from the recovery menu, however after the patch is verified I'm receiving this error: system partition has unexpected contents
Is there anything I can do to fix this myself at this point?
I've contacted Google but haven't heard back from them yet.
Any help is greatly appreciated or guidance!
Kind Regards,

You can try:
fastboot format cache
fastboot format userdata
(note that IF this is successful, it will wipe your SDcard)
If this doesn't work, you are out of options. The only thing you can do is return it for repair/replacement.
Thanks for the reply, those commands worked fine but I'm still stuck in the boot loop
I had the exact same issue, I just logged a ticket online at HTC and they sent me a free returns label. (This is the second time it's been in, first time was for dodgy power/volume buttons)

Stuck on MI logo for no apparent reason. Desperate, need help, noob

Hi there
I'm totally happy with this device but had an issue today for no apparent reason.
I was using it normally, I put it in my pocket (80% battery) and when I took it out, it was stuck on MI logo screen. Maybe screen wasn't properly blocked or something. But I find all the situation quite shocking since I normally set manual updates for system, and apps, playstore, etc.
I haven't done any flashing opperation recently since I'm not much into this kind of things nor installed any new app recenlty. However the phone was rooted (previos bootloader unlocking) quite a while ago by using "magisk method keeping stock recovery for OTA".
The phone is permanently on with MI logo on screen. I tried using power off button for a long time to see if I could turn it off but it didn't work.
I have access to Fast Boot and to Stock Recovery (3.0).
Is there any way to enter the system again without losing all data? If not, can I recover data before "flashing" anything or before using "wipe all data" option in recovery mode?
Thank you for any possible answer.

Thanks a lot mate, with this small guidance and not much idea about this things I flashed lazyflasher, wiped cache and dalvik (couldn't with stock recovery) and reboot into system.
Just out of curiosity, by flashing this lazyflasher have I done permanent changes on the system, or just through the first immediate boot they disappear?
What do you think could cause a bootlop if not an update? May an app installed a while ago causing something like this?

It happens sometimes for Unknown reasons and Lazyflasher will not harm your device and I would suggest you to flash Another Rom

Did you run any root apps ? If /system changes you need Lazyflasher I think. You could alternatively reflash the ROM (without wiping data)
