Xiaomi Redmi 6 (4GB/64GB) Bricked After Installing OTA - Xiaomi Redmi 6 Questions & Answers

I have just bought Redmi 6 a few hours back and didn't connected my MI account to device. I Installed OTA update and after that my device is bricked on boot it shows "System Is Destroyed" and I cannot flash an image as boot-loader is not unlocked. I have an MI account but unable to request as the MI Unlock tools says your account is not bound to this device. Is there anyway I can flash latest rom without unlocking the BootLoader? Or I can bind my device to my MI account as I cannot turn on my phone.

yes, you can, but this 2 ways didn't help me, maybe you will be luckier.
1. download official rom for recovery install ( i don't know rules about link on other resources, so i will leave the link in pm.
2. download last miflash Pro (pm also)
3. download and install drivers (pm)
4. install and start miflash pro on your pc
5. enter recovery mode on your phone - pwr+volume up, next choose 'connect with mi assistant', then connect to your pc
6. choose Home in mi flash, wait app to recognise the phone, the click flash in recovery - some window will appear, if you see your imei in this windows, then you can flash. 3 dots, choose rom. if checking it is ok - click flash. Wait for 10-15 minutes
the second way is to enter fastboot mode, download and open miflash, download rom for fastboot, download drivers and save it in blank folder with rom. Then open miflash, connect your phone to pc choose this folder, and start to flash
neither way helped me, in 1 case miflash pro isn't flashing the rom, in second case miflash can't find flash_all.bat file and refuses to flash

How to recover from a bricked Mix 2S?

I purchased the Mix 2S in China and waited 15 days to unlock the bootloader. After the waiting period, I attempted to install the Global MIUI 10 8.6.14 ROM and the new system would "fail to find devices" and constantly reboot itself after the security pattern was entered.
Wipe Data was used in MI-Recovery 3.0 and it now only reboots to the MI-Recovery 3.0 main menu!
Connect with MIAssistant does not work since my PC does not recognize that the phone is connected. Attempts to boot to TWRP recovery from adb result in the message: The system has been destroyed, Press power button to shutdown. MiFlashtool 207.4.25.0 shows Erase boot error after attempting to flash the official 9.5 China ROM or Global 9.5 ROM. The only hopeful thing is that it still enters FASTBOOT when the power and lower volume buttons are pressed.
Is there anything that can be done here to restore the phone to its factory state? I want to start over and try this again with the Official Global 9.5 ROM instead of the Global MIUI 10 8.6.14 ROM.
As you can imagine, this has kept me up for hours trying to fix. Any help, suggestions, advice would be so appreciated at this time.
Flash any fastboot ROM via fastboot. The beta is a zip for recovery installation. You could try fastboot boot recovery.img and transfer the zip again and flash it once more before rollback.

When I try fastboot boot recovery.img, I get this screen of death: The system has been destroyed, Press power button to shutdown.
Do an unlock in MI Unlock tool again and repeat the proces.
You locked the bootloader when you flashed global rom. Unlock it again and flash again. But this time select the "erase all" option and NOT "erade and lock". (Take a look at the bottom right of the MI flash tool.

WOW. I forgot about the unlock tool. When I unlocked it again, this time it booted up properly to the NEW MIUI 10 ROM! I don't understand what caused it to work, and I'm not complaining. Thanks for your help, XDA!
If you have the Chinese version you can't relock the booth loader. Because you get in a booth loop.
I am having the same issue
I did everything exactly the same as mentioned by the other gentleman.
My boot loader is locked in the process of flashing the beta global rom.
Now when I try to unlock the boot loader via the unlocked tool, it says my mi account is not bind with the phone.
There is not way I am able to unlock the boot loader. I am not able to boot the phone.
And without unlocking the boot loader it is nt allowing me to flash any rom.
Kindly help.

HELP - Flashed Global ROM and phone stuck in some loop.

Hi guys :crying:
I would appreciate any help with my current predicament.
I just flashed the global ROM on my Mi Mix 3. The phone boots up fine and takes me to the following menu's.
1) Mi Account Screen - informing me this device is associated with a Mi account and I need to log in.
- I connect my phone to the wifi. And log into my Mi Account.
2) Sim Unlock Screen
- I input my sim password
3) MIUI 10 Screen Intro Screen
4) Language Screen
I select English United Kingdom
5) Region
- Only option presented is for China.
6) Phone crashes and loops on some google loading page with the message
"Find device closed unexpectedly."
So what can I do - I heard about flashing back to the Chinese ROM. But how would I do that as my device is not recognised by ADB.
- My phones bootloader is still unlocked as it is recognised by the MI Unlock tool as unlocked.
- I can boot into fastboot
- I can boot to Mi Recovery. Wiped the phone once but still same problem.
- Removed my device from Mi Cloud (as I thought there might have been a find device issue)
Any assistance is appreciated.
Regards
P

Thanks for your response! How can I get TWRP back onto my phone. I cannot access it using vol+ and power - takes me to Mi Recovery 3.0. My phone is not recognised by ADB. I assume thats because USB debugging and other options are default again.

You don't need adb for fastboot. In fastboot:
Fastboot flash recovery "twrp file name".img
The hold volume up and power to get into twrp. If you miss the window twrp will be overwritten by mi recovery so twrp will need to be flashed again

Please help me bring my Xiaomi CC 9 back to life. I updated it with MIUI 11.3.3.0.PFGEUXM and my device does not boot normally. My bootloader is locked and an account is not installed in the developer settings. Does anyone know what to do ???
I got error -1 on my smartphone when I added account and device in the '' mi unlock status '' menu.
How to solve
--
Edit:
resolved: I logged out and logged into the Mi account on the device and gave no error
I have to wait 168H to unlock
Tks
GSI's are quite good. I have good SOT with ArrowOS GSI: 12h - 13 h. I think it's more interesting to use Pie GSI's for now.
Where can I get this ArrowOs GSI rom?
Unlock tool stops at 50%
What should I do when the Unlock Tool stops at 50% and reports: couldn't verify the device. Is it because I haven't waited the 10 days yet?
You have to wait to unlock bootloader.

you dont have to boot the image if you flashed it first, if you did 'fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img', no reason to do the boot part, just do fastboot reboot-recovery
if you dont want to flash twrp over your stock recovery, then use the fastboot boot recoveryname.img and then mess around with twrp, backup everything and flash a new rom and reboot, next time you reboot to recovery, stock will still be there

Unfortunately I can't help you with that but I have a question did you wait 10 days or not cause my phone just refuses to cooperate with the unlock tool. Sometimes the fastboot logo just disapears and it says press any button to shutdown.
Edit: Just to clarify the flash tool does not say anything about the waiting period. If someone can help me or clarify the situation I would greatly appreciate it.
Alright so it appears to either be a USB gen limitation or just my plain ass stupidity for not installing adb drivers. Hell if I know but either way now it says how many days I have to wait so nice.

Redmi Note 7 Pro - Bricked (Current Device Anti Rollback is greater than this Pkg.)

I tried to search regarding this issue but couldn't find a solution so I am posting this issue in hopes that someone can guide me to a solution.
I wanted to install pixel experience on my Redmi Note 7 Pro. My phone was successfully unlocked by myself and no issues were faced. First I tried to install Peter's TWRP but then can't go the recovery instead every time I was booted to fastboot menu. I then tried to just restart by holding the power button to boot straight to OS but instead I was again back to the fastboot menu.
I then downloaded the latest global ROM "violet_in_global_images_V11.0.5.0.PFHINXM_20191022.0000.00_9.0_in_9bff00d97f" for flashing using xiaomi flash tool and faced many errors but resolving one by one and then finally ROM was flashed but it only took 1 sec to complete and nothing happened on the phone. Then I searched around a bit more and tried to use CMD to flash "flash_all.bat" directly and got the error "Current Device Anti Rollback is greater than this Pkg". What I don't understand is that if I am using the latest global firmware then how the current device has a higher arb no. ?
I hope that I am able to explain the situation for other's to understand.
Any help will be appreciated.

Try the command "fastboot oem edl" in cmd of adb folder when device is in fastboot mode. Ur phone should go black but dont panic. Now open miflash tool and u see ur device is connected in edl mode as COMX ( X may be anything 10 or 20 like that). Now try to flash the lattest fastboot rom for over device. Remember to check the option in mi flash tool to not lock bl again. But this will wipe all your data.

Thank you for taking time to reply to my query. I did what you suggested and got into EDL mode. Xiaomi Mi Flash picked up the device as COM10 but when I tried to flash it shows "sahara read end error with status:40" and nothing happens.
Any further idea?

I suggest you use the older variant of the MiFlash tool.
How did you flash Peter's? Did you use "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"? That's the only right command.
Also are you sure you have the Indian variant of the phone? Another way to bypass anti roll back would be to clear all partitions, and then flash the required ROM.
Sorry if I'm not able to help you, I'll try having a look later on.
Thank you for your support. I had to go to the service center as no solution could be found.
Wait i know what happen... Ur phone has twrp and rom successfully installed don't worry about that. Just problem is ur phone has again locked the bootloader thats why its not able to boot os because it has twrp not the official recovery. U can verify that u have bootloader locked.. when ur phone starts when there is mi logo there will not be "unlocked" written in bottom.. see... That is very easy. Just try to unlock bootloader again with mi unlock tool.
And ur good to go. I got same errors on my friends redmi 6 pro. Service center will tell u to change motherboard as it cant be fixed with edl mode. JUST TRY TO UNLOCK AGAIN WITH MI UNLOCK TOOL.

Thank you for your feedback but the phone bootloader remained unlocked as when the phone starts there is "unlocked" written in bottom.
I got the phone back from Service Center. It's working fine but strangely still the bootloader is shown as unlocked in the start animation.

Locked bootloader and stuck in recovery mode.

Hi all,
TL;DR
CC9 Pro (bought in China) stuck in MI Recovery 3.0 and reboot loops back to the recovery screen. Device is locked with the global rom. There is red text on the recovery screen which reads "This MIUI version can't be installed on this device." Does not matter which Mi account I use with Mi Unlock tool, it always gives an error. Cannot flash anything with the official flash tool either because the phone is locked.
Background of phone:
I was given a Xiaomi CC9 Pro Premium edition phone as a gift on 9th April 2020, which was bought in China (the person not realising it would come with Chinese apps and not work with google properly). I have spent the last 2 weeks working out how to unlock the phone and flash it with a global rom (Mi Note 10 Pro global stable rom), with eventual success. I tried installing apps and when it came to my bank app, it told me I had a rooted phone (it was never rooted) and that it would be risky to use the phone in that state.
What went wrong:
I attempted to relock the bootloader using adb tools in command prompt "fastboot oem lock". This then sent the phone into recovery mode with red text down the bottom stating "This MIUI version can't be installed on this device".
Current problem:
The phone is stuck in a recovery boot loop and I am unable to flash anything or erase any data to the phone because it is locked now. When I try to use the Mi Unlock tool I receive an error message stating a problem I cannot fix because the phone cannot boot into the system.
"Please add your account in MIUI Settings > Developer options > Mi Unlock status."
I originally unlocked the phone using my first Mi account I created, however when I tried to login to that account on the phone after unlocking it wouldn't work. I then proceeded to make a second Mi account which is the account currently linked on the device.
I am unable to check or change the MI ID on the phone. When the phone boots, it goes into recovery stating "This MIUI version can't be installed on this device." There are 3 options: reboot, wipe data and connect with MIAssistant. Reboot loops back to the same screen. Wipe data does not help. Connect with MiAssistant does not help either as I don't think my device is supported, it's too new.
The weirdest part about this is when I check on Mi Cloud, both the new and old account are linked to the device...
Help is greatly appreciated! Thank you!
Can you go to fast boot mode ? Switch off phone, then vol down + power ??
