Hi, so several months ago i installed MIUI 12 weekly to my Xiaomi Mi A3, and now I wanted to upgrade to the stable release. When i was flashing a boot image file, after restart, my twrp dissapear. I tried to flash the rom using Mi Flash on PC, but i touched the cable and the phone disconnected, locking the bootloader in the process. I have no OS, my bootloader is locked. Is my phone truly dead?
I also forgot to uninstall Magisk root from my phone, so it's my full mistake. adb doesn't recognize my phone. I can only turn on the phone, leave it on boot until the battery drains, or the fastboot. Is there any chances that I can save my phone?

I can't. It says i cannot flash while in Lock State. Basically i can't do anything without unlocked bootloader.
well unlock it, you have 2 comands to put.
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
FAILED (remote: Token Verify Failed, Reboot the device) after i used the commands you told me.
What should I do next?
And Mi Unlock tool can't unlock the device, because I need to change some settings in Developer Options, and I have no rom.
did you try switching slots?
fastboot getvar current-slot
Getvar Variable not found
f###,
then only some recovery option with
mi tools.
Download mi a3 platform tool file then download fastboot and fastboot unlock critical file paste these both in platform tool folder then plug device through fastboot to pc then first click on fastboot unlock and then fastboot unlocking critical it will be unlocked then install the rom through mi flash

Hello Guys,
I was trying to install OxygenOS 3.1.0 when I was on Sultanxda's CM13 but instead bricked the device.
What I did:-
1. Rebooted to TWRP and flashed stock OOS recovery and then clicked reboot into recovery.
2. Instead of rebooting in recovery my phone got stuck at the OnePlus logo.
3. I booted into fastboot to flash twrp.img but it says 'writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: device is locked. Cannot erase)'
4. I repeated the same with stock recovery but no success and was not even able to boot to CM13 now.
Hence I was stuck on the OnePlus logo without any booting ROM or recovery and a locked bootloader (according to fastboot)
What I have already tried but failed:-
1. Tried to root with kingroot etc. (Before bricking)
2. Tried to unlock bootloader but failed because it has no recovery.
3. Tried to flash stock OOS 2.1.3-x
4. For now I used fastboot continue to boot back into CM13
Please help, I'm now stuck with cm13 without root and without any recovery installed.
P.S. I'm not even sure that if I clicked reboot then the phone will boot.
Thanks.
Okay, calm down.
Go to developer options and see if "OEM Unlocking" is enabled. If not, enable it.
Cool. Now enable USB Debugging, connect the phone to PC, open CMD and type
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
then
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
Download TWRP from the official website, rename it to recovery.img and then
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Now you have a recovery and an unlocked bootloader. Profit?
I hope this helps.

But if you read my post then you'll understand that due to absence of a recovery I can't unlock the bootloader and hence cannot flash twrp

hi there,
i have got a redmi note 3 pro that keeps stuck in bootloop.
Tried:
- boot to fastboot
- fired up miflash
- rebooted phone to edl
-miflash recognized phone
- flashed "kenzo" fastboot rom (tried global stable + kenzo_global_images_V7.1.8.0.LHOMICL_20160129.0000.14_5.1_global + chinese stable)
phone remains stuck in bootloop after restart.
Is there something I am missing? Please help me out.
(I guess bootloader is locked, not my phone)
when in fastboot mode, check the state of your device (make sure you have fastboot installed):
-connect device to pc
-open cmd
-type "fastboot oem device-info"
once you know the bootloader is unlocked, open miflash tool and flash the stock ROM. I don't see you need to go to EDL mode. Miflash is for fastboot mode!
how did you not knowing the condition of your bootloader? you should know it in the first place before you do such things.
oh, and make sure the directory of your rom image doesn't have spaces in it (example: C:/Users/Ivan Kurnia/...) (be safe, move it to like C:/Desktop) otherwise it will only take 1 second to flash the rom (which flashing didn't happen)
Thank you for your ideas, I still dont know if bootloader is locked or not, because it is not my phone, I was just asked to help.
However I managed to flash TWRP, now everything is good.

How to root tedmi note 3
Flash lastest MIUI using MiFlash.
Hello to all !
In order to install Lineage OS on my Xiaomi Redmi Note 5, I was trying to flash TWRP as recovery. I was able to run successfully command 'fastboot flash antirbpass dummy.img' to skirt anti rollback, then i execute successfully 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img' command to flash TWRP, but no way to boot on TWRP.
I tried also to run command 'fastboot boot recovery.img' but while booting it stays stucked on MI logo.
While searching for a solution I inconveniently run command 'fastboot flash boot recovery.img', so now I'm in a bootloop on fastboot mode if I press volume down and power button, or MI logo if I start in normal mode.
I still have access to fastboot commands, do you know how I can do to fix it (and maybe a way to install TWRP correctly) ?
And I can not stop my phone, does it exist a command which allows to do this in fastboot or I have to wait for my phone to be without battery ?
Thanks in advance for your help !

I guess you have Redmi note 5 - codename: Whyred (Snapdragon 636 and with dual rear camera) so Redmi 5 plus doesn´t have ARB.
If the next recommendation doesn´t work you will find better guidance in the thread for your specific device https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5-pro so is slightly different.
Flash again your stock boot image , reboot and check that USB debugging is enabled and start again the process:
Put TWRP in your sdcard and a copy with this name in your adb folder into pc, reboot to fastboot and first just boot to TWRP, don´t flash it in fastboot, use code
Code:
fastboot boot TWRP.img
then in TWRP flash TWRP file and flash dummy.img ARB. In the case that your counter is up to 4 here you will find the file to enable again fastboot mode https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5-pro/how-to/index-everything-anti-roll-t3816219

I will assume that you have the correct TWRP build for your device (do you have vince, or whyred?).
If you have the correct TWRP, then did you flash magisk or lazyflasher after installing TWRP?

Do like this: once you flashed type

Could you explain? My phone is stuck at fastboot and my pc doesn't detect the phone.
if u could access your phone via fastboot / adb then it wasn't a hardbrick , just a softbrick

You should check first the driver of your computer. Make sure you have the driver of your phone to your computer. After that you can check your device via adb by using commnd on cmd "adb devices".

flash boot twrp.img?
What do you wanna do?
If you want to boot into TWRP it should be
Code:
fastboot boot recovery "name-of- recovery.img"
If you want to flash TWRP it should be
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "name-of-recovery.img"
Your command
fastboot flash boot twrp.img should flash the recovery image over the boot image?
If you want to boot into twrp you should use the command above.
As far as I know not every device/firmware is able to boot into TWRP. It seems other users were able to do so with a mi 9t so my advice would be:
- Try another usb port / cable.
- Check twice if you renamed the twrp image correctly
- Try another twrp version (older one or unofficial)

Thank you. Actually I was confused in the transcript here, I meant fast boot instead of flash.
But I figured out to use XiaomiFlash Tool to install a ROM via fastboot, and then reinstall a recovery.
The popup camera is not working good with the XIAOMI official rom (It tries to close the cam even if it is already closed). Now I'm trying to install Havoc OS to try to solve those problem, but it demands me the miui v11.0.4 or new (error in twrp), even if I have the miui v12.... trying to figure out why
for the guys whome are stuck on fastboot, you may try "XiaoMiTool V2". this bought my Mi9T from fastboot to life.
make sure all the drivers are installed as well. what's better is install usb drivers, reboot computer, enable usb debugging, connect the phone to computer, select transfer data, wait till the computer completely setup your phone, turn off phone and connect to computer, wait till computer detects and setup, put the phone on fastboot mode and connect, check whether computer shows android device... once everything are confirmed then proceed with flasing.. :good::good:

extract the official recovery from the global fastboot rom and flash through cmd to recover the boot, then wipe from the recovery and you will return to miui 12.1.1
what i'm trying to figure out is if i can go back to the previous version of android without risking to crash the device.
I ran the fastboot getvar anti command and the result was Anti: 2 but I am not quite clear what that means.
I am a new user at Xiaomi.

Bro i think you can access your files from computer in recovery so make a backup and flash official firmware using miflash tool. I don't think there's any other way.

Before installing custom recovery and installing custom rom, it is recommended to backup.
You installed the recovery well, but in order to install custom ROMs you have to format and restart the recovery, then pass the ROM you want to flash and reboot system.

Good evening ..
For all those interested in downloading the official ROM version of the Xiaomi mi note 10 Lite, I have news for you, at least for those who want and have not tried.
I tried the method of saving the MiFlash folder on Disk C, in the same way I did with the global ROM of miui 11.0.8 fastboot, to the latter I changed the name of the folder to a shorter one (example Miui11.0.8), then boot in fastboot mode and run my flash running the ROM (Miui11.0.8) and the result obtained is that, I'm back on Android 10 with miui 11.0.8.
I share this information to give security to all those who had doubts about this and did not dare to try.
This data I extracted from various forums and pointed to it to give credit to all those who previously published it.
Remember that the bootloader must be unlocked.
Regards.
Hi everybody
I've got a problem...
Downloaded latest OTA update from "xiaomi.eu", agreed to install, the phone then rebooted in to fastboot mode and does nothing else.
Rebooted the phone with adb command "fastboot continue" and this went well...it rebooted the system.
Now every time i restart the phone it reboots in to fastboot mode and i have to "fastboot continue" again.
I am also not able to enter recovery because the phone always enters fastboot mode.
Reinstalled recovery (Twrp-3.4.2B_toco_by.alex.msk1407.img) via ADB succesfully, but when i "fastboot reboot recovery" it reboots back into fastboot.
I'm also not able to boot into EDL mode.
Any solution?
Thanks

Good Day. I have concern but after updating to Android 12. Currently my Mi Note 10 Lite is experiencing stuck in fastboot and mi logo. I already tried flashing using MIFlash 2020 but the error occur is "Erase is not allowed in Lock State".I also used MI PC Suite but it cant read my device (maybe because of lock state also). Even in MI-Unlock (batch_unlock application) it says its locked but when I sign-in it doesnt give permission to unlock (I used yahoo account).
