Unable To Flash Custom Rom, OrangeFox Or Anything Else - Xiaomi Redmi Note 6 Pro Questions & Answers

Hello,
since today I flashed definitly more than 100 times a custom rom to several Smartphones. So I know the procedure und what to note.
But now the Redmi Note 6 Pro makes me crazy since two days.
Waited 15 days to unlock bootloader, then flashed the first TWRP, Error 7, tried another TWRP for the phone from here - passwort error encryption etc. etc. I think I have seen all the possible error-messages.
I tried everything incl. back to stock rom via Xiaomi Mi flash several time an than the same from the beginning, always errors, some new like "zip-file corrupt" "can't map file". Thought about a hardware error already.
Has anybody been in the same situation? What should I try? Is there a workaround where I can check the reason for these problems?
Regards
Robert

Same problem here ? I can't solve ? plz help

Never fear, Google is here!
I had this exact same problem, but this post fixed it:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2522762
I still haven't figured out what caused it in the first place though...

I don't think this programming-issue is the only reason for error 7. I have been trying 5 different roms, always error 7. Is it possible that there comes a wrong model-information from the phone?
Another problem is the passwort for decrypting in TWRP. In some threads is said, this password is the screen protecting password. I tried this - nothing - I changed it - nothing, allways wrong password.
This phone makes me crazy.... All the things working allways and xtimes without any problems - here not.

Same Problem
Had the same problem turned out that you need to flash pie firmware first befor flashing any pie-roms.

You don't give much detail as to what happened or what you were doing prior to your bootlooping. I suffered from a bootloop that took me several months to finally resolve on the very device I'm responding to you with. I was able to resolve it by installing the latest Oxygen OS from the OPO forums. I followed the directions exactly, then after booting into Oxygen it turned out that my WiFi and Bluetooth were refusing to turn on. After several attempts and force close reboots I was able to get them to function. Then I reinstalled TWRP, then flashed CMOS12, then finally CM which I'm using now. BTW for more detail look for my post about it in this forum. Hope this helps.

Hi, i dont know what happened before because the Phone is not mine, is of the gf of a friend. I can reach fastboot and recovery and I also changed the recovery to twrp and installing a new rom, but bootloop still is running. What can i do else?

Do you have a backup? try restoring just the system and the data of your backup.. i used to flash the boot too but as far as i know flashing boot doesn't solve the issue (still bootloop-ing). if you are still in bootloop and really have no idea, try consider a full reset of your phone (all except your custom recovery, ofc) and flash a new flashable.zip rom.. (data+media also wiped) you can always copy files to your phone while in recovery by mounting a usb drive, in case you don't have a zip on your phone. of course, this is not the solution, and is not recommended, but take this as your last choice if any other method didn't work
hope it helps!

I dont have a backup, so i also tried yet everything you said. I dont have to save datas, so i flashed everything new, but still dont work. I also tried to flash everything from oneplusrecoverytool that in any difficult situations helped me, but in this case it did not worked. Is there any radical solution to get this Phone working? (i can install twrp and reach fastboot, but after installing something, it's always in bootloop. ?
i have the same problem , don't know what to do , i even used the tool to return to stock
maybe an overheat problem? i don't know
Gentlemen, please try the method I suggested above in my response. Go to the OPO forums and follow the procedure to switch to Oxygen OS exactly as they lay out. As long as you're unlocked and can get to the bootloader and recovery you aren't hard-bricked and will be able to eventually fix your handsets. I know from personal experience, because as I mentioned this device was hopelessly stuck in a bootloop for months before I was able to get it running again. Do a search for my previous post for instruction and as I said follow the guide to installing Oxygen to the letter. More than likely you've got several corrupt partitions and this method will resolve it. Once you've got your handset successfully running again on Oxygen you can then begin to flash other ROMs with no issues. For some reason the Oxygen OS is more robust in that it will boot up when there are issues with these corrupted partitions when CM based ROMs won't. I believe the title of my previous post was "hopelessly stuck in bootloop (solved)". I hope this helps.

oppo f1 won't boot

Hi!
My cellphone is Oppo F1f. I downloaded the marshmallow os for oppo last week from the project spectrum and installed it. It was a success except that when I tried to reboot my phone, it always says that the applications are optimizing. This optimizing process continued many time and did not stop so I downloaded the ColorOS. My internet went wrong as I was downloading it and the download did not complete so maybe the file is corrupted but I still installed it in my phone hoping that it will go back to coloros. But unfortunately, my phone got stock in the "updating installation". I can't go to the stock recovery as well. Do you have any suggestions or recommendations on how to solve this problem? Thank you very much.

It doesn't just say "failed", it should give you an error code, like code 7 or something. Get back with the error code please.

Now the problem is actually solved. The error(sry did not notice the code) occurred only when i flashed the rom from usb-otg.
It was solved when i tried flashing from sd-card.
And i would be happy to know some good custom Roms for my htc one m8whl.
Thank you.

Thank you dear friend.
I tried to find out the error code that occurred in previous sessions and it was ERROR:7 as you suggested. It happened with me when i tried to install NusenSeven for sprint m8 as well.
Additionally, I tried installing a couple of ROMS
1) BadBoys for m8 and
2) Wolla for m8.'
Both were installed successfully but unfortunately the Radio was not working. Plus both these Rom's kept on restarting multiple times in an hour for the whole day. Even-though it had many cool customisation's i couldn't use it.
Finally, i returned back to cm-13.0 nightly but Still it has two major problem
1) the Radio is down .
2) problem with the Gapps. ( I flashed the Gapps properly after the rom , but when i start my device i cannot find any apps from Gapps package. NOTE: There was a flash successful message on flashing gapps ).
kindly help me.
thank you in advance.

Has Anyone Gotten a Custom ROM onto a BLN-L24 (US Variant)?

I have tried quite a few ROMs, and all ended up going back to stock firmware because they wouldn't boot. I know I have to format data, and some ROMs ask you to change the data partition as f2fs.
Still, I think that there may be no ROMs that currently work for the US variant. One guy said LOS 13 worked, but when I flashed it, it failed. If someone has gotten it to work, can you please post as many steps as you remember on how to get it work?

Thanks, but wouldn't there be more issues down the line with a debranded phone? What if I soft-bricked my phone, it seems like it'd be really hard to restore? Has anyone actually ever done this on a BLN-L24?
Hello all,
I too am having issues with flashing roms to this device, US variant (BLN-L24). In my particular case, the rom boots up (EliteRom v7.1) and will actually function. However, wifi does not work, as well as I have no sound whatsoever. Youtube also will not play, nor will any videos, which I'm guessing is tied to whatever issue is with the sound. I have flashed multiple times per the step by step instructions, as well as following the Youtube video, all with the same result over the last few days. At this point, my phone is effectively useless to me, though cellular data does still work, just no calls can be answered. Anyone have any suggestions I might be able to follow? Also, even my TWRP backup that I made before installing the rom will not restore at this point. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

You must be missing a step or something, because [Elite ROM][EMUI 5.1] Elite ROM v7.1 for Honor 6X by HassanMirza01 works on the L24 us variant without issues, I have none.
Perhaps go back to stock and start over. I haven't had any issues with his rom and I didn't do anything more than what's needed to root/install twrp and flash the rom per his instructions.

I just followed the instructions; I believe to the best I could, and I'm stuck in a bootloop now. Which version of EMUI were you on before flashing? I was on EMUI 5.0 which may be my issue.
I started from EMUI 5.0
Unlocked my bootloader
Let it factory reset
Installed the Elite TWRP on the page
Booted to Elite TWRP
Formatted all partitions excpet for external sd card
Reformatted Data to f2fs
Re-wiped data
Checked that it was f2fs
Installed Elite ROM zip
Installed open gapps 7.0 ARM64
Installed the patch
Rebooted
Bootloop

On one of the attempts that I did for installing, I installed the patch and it put me in a boot loop. Maybe not installing the patch can help you?
I cant get anything to work for the US version. Sure stuff boots but some of it is just broken. On octOS i am unable to use root unless i switch supersu to automatically grant root to apps. I cant get root access by using prompt because nothing pops up. On crdroid i have the same exact issue. Id rather have the prompt than allow any app root access without my knowledge. With ELITE ROM my first boot brings up a home screen with no keyboard. It completely skips any kind of setup screen. I can get the setup screen by flashing a keyboard from an aroma gapps installer but then i lose google services. The US version also seems to be forgotten as for most roms you wont see it anywhere under supported lists.
I've never been able to get a custom rom to work on my BLN-L24. Everything just ends in a never-ending bootloop of frustration.
Though, I have only ever tried with EMUI 5.0+. Maybe an earlier version of EMUI gets better results...?

It really sucks that nothing seems to work. Ive tried flashing using multiple recoveries and ive tried all kinds of flashing to fix issues with the ROMS. Nothing helps. If anyone has successfully gotten a ROM fully working on BLN-L24 they need to tell people exactly what they did step by step.
It seems that for the roms located here, they seem to all assume that the phone has been debranded to bln-l21 variant. I don't know if it has any bearing on the current issues we're all experiencing, but I did notice that all twrps available for this device on the forums state they are the "Open Kirin Edition". It's been a while since I've rooted or rom'd a phone besides this one, but I've never encountered a twrp with a custom name like that.
I know that the developer of the EliteRom had his custom twrp, but is there a different twrp besides that one that does not state it is an "Open Kirin Edition"? Like I said, not sure if it has any bearing on things here, but I've been very confused about that.

For most phone i've ever owned you never had to change the recovery for each ROM. Its confusing. Most recoverys say Open Kirin Edition when booting. What confuses me is why we need to debrand to get the ROMS to work. If the phone pretty much run on the same hardware then why is L24 having so many issues? Why are the devs not testing on these devices?

Right, that's what I was thinking. For any phone I've ever rom'd, there was always just one twrp that everyone worked from.
Edit: found this while looking through the roll back to stock forum. I don't know if it will help anyone else, but figured I'd put it here as well if it might. All credit for this goes to the original poster johnnyrichter:

Tried this method after being on LineageOS for a week or two and having poor LTE signal, no MMS, and voicemail issues so I'm trying to go back to stock so I can have a fully functional phone since I rely on it heavily for work. Followed all steps using BLN-L24 B360 firmware. On step 10 I rebooted to update and it went right to "5% Installing Update" and stuck there for 5 mins, then rebooted itself, has been sitting at "honor" boot screen for 14 minutes so I made it reboot to EMUI recovery, wiped/factory reset, rebooted, loaded EMUI afte 2 more minutes. Appears to have worked and hopefully my issues are fixed!
Edit: Signal, mms, and voicemail issues fixed.

Hopefully will benefit someone here as well.
When debranding the BLN-L24, and branding it to BLN-L21, are there any issues with the ROMs once they're installed? I imagine the radios, and such are different for the two models??

Devs can only test devices they have in possession. If they don't have your phone model, how are they going to test it?

well, many don't want to give them a phone because most developers here tend to stop work on a ROM and leave people hanging.
I have gotten several ROMs working on L24 variant...
Yes it seems to me any Elite kernel based ROM works or should work on the L24. But /data must be ext4 format. Then even that the ROM works, the fingerprint scanner never allows a complete successful scan. I think because it must be f2fs format for that encryption to work or something. This is the link to those ROMS https://hassanmirza01.blogspot.com/p/custom-roms.html?m=1
On the other hand the LOS based ROMs never work or at least they reboot and the screen is always black or the ROM branding just stays there flashing. This sucks cause I want to run the newest Resurrection ROM but I ask the developer about why I have that problem or how long that ROM takes to boot and I never get an answer. He also just put a new beta AOKP ROM up and it does the same black screen thing too.
I am also suspicious it has to do with the version of TWRP. I think some are capable of formatting f2fs correctly or the encryption or whatever. Point is some of the devs need to be a little more consistent answering questions at a minimum. I know it takes time to fix bugs but give us a little heads up.

(HELP) Actually impossible on Asus Zenhpone 2 Laser ZE550KL

Before stating my problem I have already serched in other xda Posts but all that I was able to do it to identity my problem and know that my Phone is one of a kind
SO
after trying to install a rom on my device and after failing every time getting error 7 with twrp I tried deleting the device id check in the update-script but after doing that the rom still would not install.
After deleting everything on my phone (yes I deleted the system too) I tried installing the stock firmware from the official website but still no luck and in the update-script in th stock rom was too complicated
SO
i tried installing my rom by sideload but whenever I enter that my device would disapper
I have read different posts watched different videos tried different methods but nothing. The phone is old and if this will not work I will probably throw it from the windows but at this point, since I have been trying for almost 2 weeks, is basically a battle between me and my phone wich it seems I can't win
Thanks!!
