Need help to fix/recover my mi4i - Xiaomi Mi 4i

So I was trying to flash a custom rom, kernel and gaaps. The first time the rom wasn't working so I tried to flash another 2 different roms. When I was going doing the format to flash the 3rd rom I got this screen(attachment) and I think my phone is done for good. I don't know what to do, nothng seems to work. If anyone knows how to fix this, please help me.
Thanks.

weird... If fastboot is still bootable (vol- & power), then flash miui back in fastboot and try again. Have you tinkered with any of the filesystem or partitions?

I tried downloading miui 6.6.10 and flashing it using miflash tool but to no avail. The miflash wouldn't work and it would give me this error "The system cannot find the file specified..." and I point it to the correct folder. Yes the fastboot is still working.

Use file manager to delete the system folder, then do a wipe system in advance wipe. Reboot recovery and flash rom. Was facing almost the same problem except that it was for the cache folder. Also try to update to the latest available TWRP for the device.

Can't install any custom rom ....plz help (xt-1032)

Well i have stock GPE 5.1 with twrp 2.8.7.0 installed. The problem is that i cant flash any custom roms such as CM 12.1 ,Cm 13, nexus experiance rom etc. While flashing via twrp it gets stuck at " patching system image unconditionally". I have tried changing file system of data from ext4 to f2fs but still no success and says, E:failed to mount /system . Should i flash gpt.bin file ??? if so ,then can anyone provide gpt.bin for Lollipop.
Or is there is any other solution to this problem???
don't u have fastboot flashable zip file?? gpt.bin is there. I don't know flashing of only gpt.bin will work or not. why not a fresh fastboot flash??
Have you tried to "format data" from twrp? I did once when i had same problem and worked for me... Please, pay attention, this will wipe all your phone, even data partition, so make a backup of all your photos, music, video, documenta etc

As per my understanding only stock roms are flashable via fastboot. Currently i have installed stock GPE 5.1 via fastboot but every stock rom requires flashing via twrp. If there is a any available, kindly tell me.

Kindly tell me the procedure to install gpt.bin. Thanks btw

theres non gpe flash files that uses fastboot.
Heres the link. Download, extract, firstly flash only gpt.bin. if not works then do whole flash.

Plz keep a backup before proceedure.
If u feel complexity then try this tool from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2635706
I found this tool very easy to use for flashing Stock rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...l-motoflash-automated-flash-to-stock-t2934358
Finally took the risk and i flashed gpt.bin via fastboot, initially was stuck on bootlogo but managed to get in recovery. however whole data had been erased (good thing i had made a backup and transferred it to pc). Then i copied custom rom and moved on with its installation and guess what .....custum rom is installing fine

Need Help,Mobile Restarting for every 5 minutes

Hi All,
I am new to this xda, firstly i am really very sorry for typing this much question.My problem is,
I am using mi4i(MIUI7). previously I tried to flash custom rom(CM13) to my device,for that i have installed TWRP and alse rooted my device using Mi4i-ToolKit.
Firstly I have taken backup of my current rom (i.e MIUI7), after that selcted CM13 zip and tried to flash that rom,but it is failed to install.
Out to my curiosity, I have searched in xda forms and i got a key that firstly my device has to be downgraded to miui6.6.10 or below version.
then I downgraded my device with 6.5...(miui6 ver) it was downgraded successfully.Then, I tried to flash CM13. But it again failed to
install.and again I restored my entire backup to MIUI7. Now, The problem is my device has been restarting for ever 5 mins since last night.
please provide any inputs to get my back my device to perfect condition.
First of all, flash MIUI 6.6.10 via fastboot and see if the device works. Then after that try to flash CM13 following the instructions provided by the author of the ROM.

Help!My OPO cannot flash ROM with recovery.

The Screenshot is below. I got stuck in the H2OS 2.0 so I flash the cos12 to save it from bricking. Then I flash the TWRP. When I wanted to flash a CM13,the problem in the screenshot occurred. Need some Help here.
Help,PLZ
I don't have another phone.I gotta fix this as soon as possible in case I don't miss any important phone calls. plz. Somebody gives me a hand.
The problem is that you're not installing the TWRP flashable rom.
See that the zip file of the CM13 build you tried to install is called cm13......bacon-signed-fastboot......zip. So you're trying to install a fastboot rom with a custom recovery, instead of trying to install a custom rom for a custom recovery. That's why TWRP doesn't found any meta-inf folder.
When downloading the rom in the official web be sure to download the one compatible with custom recoveries.

Okay,Thanks. But when I tried another ROM (NucleaRom-V2.1.4-BETA[7.0]-bacon-20161011-0245.zip) ,I failed again. It occurred error 7. The TWRP is universal in many ROMs,right?I used to installed many with it successfully.However, I failed again and again this time.

The 7 error use to happen when you get a bad download and there is missing data. You can compare the md5 of the rom to check if there are missing data or simply download it again, or try another rom.
Also i suggest you to use the latest TugaPower TWRP.

Actually,I'm using the latest TeamWin - TWRP. Here is the screenshot. I downloaded the cm13 official but it didn't work too. Could you give a guide to get a Tugapower TWRP? Maybe it will work with the TugaPower TWRP.

Did you do wipes (system, data, cache and dalvik cache) before flashing the roms?

yea,of course. This problem began at my last ROM(H2OS V2.0.1). Is it the main reason? Before that ROM ,everything goes well.

Well, honestly i don't know.
I would suggest you to check if the files you have downloaded are not corrupted in case the computer where you're downloading the roms is corrupt them, i experienced that case. So you can check md5 following this guide: http://forums.androidcentral.com/optimus-v-rooting-roms-hacks/113984-what-md5-how-use-verify-your-download.html
And the TWRP i suggested you is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/unofficial-twrp-3-0-x-tugapower-t3398366. You can install it though fastboot or try with the current recovery you have.

Most probable you did not Format data after you flashed the stock ROM. Download the fastboot of the stock ROM you wanna use, unzip it and flash it with MiFlash tool.

Nope...format data is needed (this one when you have to type ”yes”)
Even though I get this message error the phone booted the rom, weird...
So can I try flashing other roms like lineageos using this tool or do I need twrp? Could the wifi error on the other roms be from not properly formatting the folders?

Yeah, you got that error because you did not lock your bootloader, but ROM will work just fine. You can use MiFlash for stock ROMs only.
The Wi-Fi problems are usually related by flashing the custom ROM from the wrong stock firmware and vendor version. Just read the first page (OP) of the ROM you wanna flash and see what version of the stock ROM is needed (most of them ask for 12.0.3.0 version, but some ask for 12.0.2.0 or 12.0.4.0).

Say I lock the bootloader, but what if I want to unlock after? will I have to wait 7 days again?

If you already unlock. Then flash with fastboot, phone will lock again. And you can instant unlock again because your Mi Account have permission to unlock your device.

Bricked my Poco F2 Pro

Hi. Recently I've been trying to flash Xiaomi.eu. however, it didn't have success. My bootloader is unlocked, and I flashed the Chinese TWRP to flash it. However, upon flashing it I always had an error about my cache being corrupted or an odm error. However, I did manage to boot into xiaomi.eu before, but it randomly stopped working. Tried to flash stock as well, but everytime I do, it stops at the cache again and always gives me an error.
I'm fully defeated at this point and I haven't been able to boot into anything since. I've tried everything and that's why I'm here.
I hope anyone can help me.
Thank you.

I tried to flash stock ROM via MiFlash. Most likely the latest build. I will try with another USB cable now.

I've instead tried to unbrick it with XiaomiToolV2. However, I'm still getting the same error, just in a different way. Does anyone know how to fix this? I've had this multiple times without success.
