Hallo,
I wiped the phone via recovery, now it doesnt boot anymore. I get this device is locked. I dont know the cell phone #´s in there.
So where do i start please to unlock the device ? Do i have to put a SIM card in and follow the procedure mentioned here ?
Can i just flash a TWRP and install a stock rom somehow?
Thanks in advance.

First try to use Mi Flash Tool to flash stock rom. If you fail, you probably have to go to fastboot mode and use Mi Unlock Tool to unlock bootloader. Then you can try to use Mi Flash again or install TWRP and flash stock recovery ROM or any other you wish

First of all you need to apply for permission at http://en.miui.com/unlock/ to unlock your bootloader
Then u need to use MiUnlock tool to unlock your bootloader
Then you can flash twrp using same old fastboot
There are so many threads for stock roms in development section.
And you need to use MiFlash instead of odin to flash stock firmware
You can boot to bootloader by holding power+vol down if you stuck in bootloop

Help! Need to revert back to MIUI from CM13 !

Hi ,
I have to revert back to latest MIUI ROM from CM13 ROM [ locked Bootloader]. I have read other threads too but theres never a clear answer.
First of all I dont have any backup of any MIUI roms. I want to do a clean install of latest MIUI build.
What do I have? : Alka TWRP, CM 13 with locked bootloader I think.
Can someone please tell me what do things I need to revert back with steps?
Do I need to unlock the bootloader first then flash the lastest build of MIUI with MiFlash tool? or the bootloader needs to unlocked later after the flash?
Or can I install MIUI recovery rom? with ALKA TWRP?
Flesh miui rom via edl method using mi flash tool.
download fastboot rom and flash via mi flash.
it will lock ur bootloader so unlock it via mi unlock again if u officially unlocked.
off course this method requires a PC.

In the developer mode settings, enable advance options to restart. This will give you the option (on long pressing the power button) to reboot into recovery. If by this method you can get into recovery it would be alot easy to flash the MIUI ROM (which you can get for your device from the official miui rom download site).
If you can't get into recovery, you will need a PC/laptop.

Most probably yes.
But you could try( before unlocking) booting into recovery as i have mentioned above.

Flashed the rom and phone is not booting [only mi logo displays] help!

I was on nitrogen N rom. Then I wiped the data, cache etc and flashed latest firmware and then flashed the Viper os and gapps. Then booted the phone to os. But it just blinks the mi logo. Even when I try to go to recovery, only mi logo blinks.
Phone is not even charging.
Only Fastboot mode wrks. But that too phone is not detecting in laptop on windows 10.
Kindly help me.
Your phone has been soft bricked and there is nothing to panic about this happens while flashing the roms as sometimes the flashing process is not done successfully or executed successfully ..So the solution for this is to flash the fastboot rom using the mi flash tool and to flash the this rom you need to open fastboot mode and then the edl mode..in this edl mode the phone will be detected by the mi flash tool and the flashing would be done ..
Refer this link for the process

Hope this solves your problem

Probably because you had an unofficially unlocked bootloader and because you flashed lastest firmware it is locked now. If i am right about your problem then the following is the easiest way out.

No.. Unlocked the bootloader officially. When I flashed the firmware, it might have relocked the bootloader again. And also cudnt open recovery. Either way, it just blinks the MI logo and power off.
When I tried to unlock the bootloader again officially, it stucks at 50%.
Dono wat to do exactly now.
P. S. Tried that method in that thread link you gave. It shown as success in the flash tool. Den tried to flash TWRP in fastboot, it shown as failed.

Yes, you can flash stock firmware in edl mode when bootloader is locked. And you need to unlock bootloader If you need twrp to install custom rom.

This way always works for me. Did you tried flashing twrp again? Maybe you can try once more. Or you might have done something wrong. Bdw can you tell me what exactly it showed when you tried flashing twrp??

I can tell you how to check if a particular firmware will lock it. Download the zip and check if it has emmc.appsboot.mbn file. If it is there then your bl will get locked.
To flash the firmware without getting locked, you need to remove that file from the zip. You can do that with any zip app. Just select it and delete, and flash the zip?.
PS: All the above is only if you have unlocked unofficially. Else any firmware will do. Just be sure to get the latest one.

Install adb and fastboot drivers .
Download orange fox recovery (place it on desktop ) https://drive.google.com/file/d/14pEu6xx0eg14uGbsf9tXCdu8LVz4z7iP/view?usp=drivesdk
Open CMD and enter into fastboot mode
In CMD type - fastboot flash recovery filelocation
For making it easy instead of putting file location , just drag the recovery file into CMD it will automatically write location .
Now simply boot into recovery by pressing volume up+ power or type fastboot boot filelocation .
Just do everything as mentioned there will be no problem , make nandroid backup asap .
What is Magisk? Thank you for the help. I'll be sure to post again if I encounter any problems.
What is a Nandroid backup?

It's a backup of your system
Before flashing anything in the custom.recovery, I recommend making a fully working ROM backup,
So you'll need to click backup in the recovery and tick
BOOT
DATA
SYSTEM
also, make a SEPARATE backup of the EFS this is very important.

Just an advise.
I think you should not try any of this mods before you study deeply the effects and the risks of it. You are so newbie that you can brick your device if you make any mistake performing the operations.
I have a Redmi note 5 AI 6/64 gb variant. After purchasing my device i have unlockd the bootloader and flash global stable rom but i can't relock the bootloader. my previous rom was MIUI 9.5.21.0 China and my current rom is MIUI 9.5.17.0. If i relock the bootloader phone boot into recovery mode and shows "This MIUI version can't be installed on this device". If i unlocked the bootloader again then phone reboot into OS. As per my findings from MIUI 9.5.6.0 bootloader can't be locked after flashing global rom on Chinese device. Its a bug from xiaomi. So my question is
1. If i flash my device into 9.2.7.0 can i relock my bootloader again and can perform OTA update?
2. I have got an OTA update MIUI 9.6.3.0. If i update my device will it get bricked? If i can update my device via OTA update will it relock my bootloader automatically? Or do I have to flash it manually?

Get a custom recovery to wipe all partitions out. There might be an easy way out but you'd want to prefer a clean flash after this. And did you use EDL before unlocking?

hmm without unlocked bootloader I can't flash a custom recovery and there is no option to flash a custom recovery using another method(so I used EDL method),
and no I didn't use EDL before unlocking,
I used EDL because I there was no way to flash ROM on my phone!
THANKS, BRO!
SOMEONE RESPONDED!:good:

That is quite a bad state that you have gotten yourself into. If you can reboot into bootloader, you can wipe every partition and flash a fastboot image of MIUI ROM to get it back to work. Remember to be specific about IMG files as they can make/break your system. You have a soft brick now but selecting a wrong IMG file can result a hard brick.
Any Updates ?
