Find device storage corrupted

i unlocked my Note 7 pro's bootloader using the official unlocking method...flashed and tried couple of custom roms and wanted to get back to stock miui cause netflix wasn't working on unlocked bootloader...so flashed miui 10.3.13.0 latest rom using mi flash tool and clicked the button called "clean all and lock"...when booted up a mesaage is showing "Find device storage corrupted.Your device is unsafe now"...it's not showing me the screen where i used to give my mi account password(this device is associated with an existing mi account).......now i have to enter mi account password every time i reboot my phone and that message is poping up on bottom of the screen...no other hardware issue though.

Unlock the bootloader, Install a Custom Recovery and then clear the partitions, once that's done flash MIUI.
Also make sure to check our the PE forum for any precautionary measures before flashing back to MIUI.

Unlock the bootloader again and try to flash the Chinese stable rom if you're still having trouble..you can also try to flash the Chinese firmware..

No one can lock the BL again if u flashed PE and Hentai OS unless fastboot rom is flashed via edl. If u never installed PE and Hentai then u can lock it again.

Relock bootloader
Anyone can relock the bootloader after returning from any android 10 based rom except pixel experience and hentai os
Cuz both these two roms use another type of encryption format known as metadata encryption
But still, if you wanna relock then,
You can try a method which I m telling you
Procedure:
Flash miui 11 from custom recovery
Then flash stock recovery and vbmeta image
Then again clean flash miui11 via fastboot method with clean all and lock option enabled
Hope this method will works for you

Hi, I have reverted back from Oxygen OS ROM to MIUI 12 and locked my bootloader. Below are my steps that gave me the desired result
1. Flash miui 11 from custom recovery
2. Then flash stock recovery and vbmeta image
3. Now boot device into fastboot mode and connect to PC
4. Download and extract platform tools folder
5. Launch a powershell / CMD window in the platform tools folder by holding SHIFT+RIGHT CLICK
6. Now first run the command - "fastboot devices" to make sure device is detected
7. Now run the command - "fastboot oem lock"
That's it device will reboot and is now locked. Note that your data will be erased and you need to setup everything again

Wil this method will work for me if I flashed pixel experience rom before?

Tried all methods mentioned above still no luck stock rom has some problems like cts fail and device isn't certified in play store if you keep your bootloader unlocked . Everytime i try system gets destroyed.

Bootloader problem
try mi bootloader Unlocker tool to unlock it opens
In my case it worked

It seems like locking bootloader with custom ROMs installed bricks the device.
Fortunately you can still unlock it with the Mi bootloader unlocker.

I have two Redmi Note 7 Pro devices. (Global Devices - A.K.A Indian Variant)
first device is unlocked but no custom rom installed like ever
second device is unlocked with lots of custom rom history
While trying to relock my bootloader with MIFLASH (clean all and lock) and Global firmware 11.0.8
First device firmware flash worked perfectly and bootloader is set to lock state - (Widevine status is L1 )
Second device as stated in OP . Flashing success but device showing "SYSTEM HAS BEEN DESTROYED". If i unlock the bootloader of the device then it boots normally but device is in unlock state (widevine status L3)
I think some modifications might have happened to some system partitions which causes the VBMETA - SRCLIST check failure.
ANY DEVS PLEASE LOOKS INTO THIS ISSUE ...
Yeah someone out there I"m trying to relock bootloader bcoz to get access to my corporate mails , netflix HD content and GPAY
(On other hand magisk is having CTS profile check failure as google changed the approach to check the unmodified system)

If you wanna lock your bootloader then don't untick the option, use MiFlash along with lock devide option. That should give you stock ROM and a locked bootloader, but don't try this on a custom ROM.

Its common sense bro that i can only flash stock miui rom through miflash and i did that only with clean all and lock option but it hasnt worked yet

There is no harm having unlocked bootloader with miui stock you still secured and still gets all updates pushed by Xiaomi.
I recently flashed rom miui by mi flash tool and with unlocked option on and as I started from fresh got latest update 11.8.0 hope so but you do one thing uninstall the mi flash tool and reinstall it then do the same steps again you will get successful

I have talked to some developers and they have said its happening to everybody due to some issue by Redmi side you cant rollback from anrdoid 10 custom rom to miui 11 android 9 based you have to wait till redmi releases miui 11 based on android 10 then you can lock the bootloader or you can use edl mode

Did you find any solution to this?

Even EDL mode isn't a solution.
One of my known violet user went to service center and they failed to revive the phone even from EDL flashing. At last they changed the mobo.
Hope this gets fixed after miui 12 with android 10 comes.
P.s : i lost all my hope of relocking the bootloader & i don't think so that android 10 update from Xiaomi will fix this.

Lets hope it gets fixed

I always use the fastboot method to restore original system. Works 100% of the time. It has scripts to flash stock without lock

Oh boy, you should NEVER lock bootloader unless you are going back to STOCK ROM...
Never been in such position but have you tried to unlock bootloader again with Mi Unlock tool?

Yes, I tried. 99 percent hangs for about a minute, then an error

You must have screwed it honestly... There is something like EDL flash but I have zero experience in that and its not that straightforward. Look at YouTube. Otherwise I have no solution other than Mi Service

Question Allow oem unlocking option missing in developer options

So, i recently flashed arrow os 12.1 on my poco x4 pro (veux) using twrp. Flashing the rom removed twrp and now i cant flash it back because fastboot says that my bootloader is locked...
Of course, it isn't and the problem is that allow oem unlocking isn't on... I really would appreciate some help because i've been stuck on this rom for a day.
Gonna wait for some answers, thank you.

In the first place, flashing the rom shouldn't relock your bootloader. Can you please reboot to fastboot mode and use mi unlock tool with the same account you used to unlock bootloader first time.

Thank you for your response. Sadly i already tried that and the tool says that the phone is unlocked.
I'm trying to reflash stock rom via EDL mode, but i always get some error.
By the way, when using fastboot getvar command, it says that my bootloader is locked.
So, i recently bought a poco x4 pro (veux) and flashed a custom rom using twrp. Sadly, the rom's recovery managed to overwrite twrp and when i tried to flash twrp back, i could not flash it because fastboot said my bootloader wasn't unlocked. When i tried to unlock the phone again the xiaomi tool said that the bootloader was already unlocked. So, i used the getvar command which said that my bootloader was locked. So, i remembered that i didnt turn on allow oem unlocking in developer options. Sadly, when i looked for it the setting wasn't there. I tried using Edl mode to go back to stock but with no success. I always get some failed to read hello packet error. Can someone give me any help? Im kinda getting desperate...

Go to service centre if it is critical. I have never seen such case so i couldn't help. I am afraid that you would have to pay the service centre people money for reflashing your device.
Also have you tried flashing fastboot ROM (MIUI) through fastboot? Also try to flash stock recovery rom via the recovery you have now currently.
Another thing you could try is using the Xiaomi official flashing utility (which is not unlock tool) to flash stock rom which does not require OEM unlock.
