Hi,
I flashed a wrong boot.img via fastboot, and done reboot.
Now the phone stuck in bootloop with no screen at all. no mi logo, just black screen (vibrate when it try to boot).
- Phone is Xiaomi Redmi 6, battery is not removable.
- Can't enter to fastboot mode (not either to TWRP recovery).
- Can't even turn the phone off (tried with pow + vol-up + vol-down, but didn't work).
- PC not recognize the phone (included miFlash and spFlashtool).
I have an unlocked bootloader if it make any different to this situation.
Please help :crying:
Thanks.
If need more details I would like to give it.

try this. It worked for me when I had a simular issue.
set spflash tool up to flash correct boot.img. Press start.
Connect phone while holding the volume down button. Keep holding button. The phone is bootlooping, so it may eventually catch in preloader and get flashed.

Thanks, but I'm get the same error, STATUS_BROM_CMD_FAIL (0xC0060005)
same problem with me..haha :laugh:
folow these steps
the only way you flash your phone is by installing mtk (mediatek) drivers.
if you are using windows 10. Disable Driver Signature Enforcement
download MRT_V3.26
there you have MTK_driver.exe install it. than open folder MTK_CDC_Driver_for_imei right click on Android_Gadget_CDC_driver and install.
download Xiaomi_Flash_20181115.zip
and stable global fastboot rom V10.3.3.0.OCGMIXM
extract it
run mi flash and choose extracted folder, click refresh than flash.
THIS IS 100% TESTED by me.

The workaround doesn't support MT6762, which is the processor in the R6, sadly.

Same problem, I'm trying right now with MiFlash as suggested by Tommy0412. The program detects the device and is in "flashing" from 500s to this moment. I'll let you know if it's working
Edit: Finished with "error: flash timout". I'm trying again, this time with very less hope. By the way my phone is a Redmi 9A (dandelion)
Edit 2: I fixed the problem without flashing (almost) anything. I used the Xiaomi ADB/Fastboot Tool (a simple .jar file) that allowed me to reboot in fastboot mode without doing anything strange. Then I flashed the correct recovery and everything is now back to normal. Thanks to whoever developed that java application. That saved my ass!

Unfortunately, I no longer have access to recovery or fastboot. The phone is stuck in a loop and no longer offers those options. I need a tool that can recover it in BROM mode.

If it keeps restarting, this may not help at all, but I'll leave the tool here for you (or whomever may need it) to maybe give it a try.
Hope you can recover it somehow, good luck and have a nice day

My Redmi Note 6 Pro Global version just rebooted itself out of nowhere and now its showing MI logo and rebooting every 3-5 seconds. I didn't unlock bootloader and had MIUI 10 latest stable version installed. I can still enter fastboot mode. What can I do to fix this?
UPDATE
Over the last few days, these are the things that I've tried:
I can enter Fastboot mode and connect to my PC, but can't enter recovery mode.
I was able to unlock my bootloader (I was in the process of waiting for the 360 hours)
I tried flashing fastboot rom with MiFlash, but when MiFlash causes phone to reboot towards the end of flashing, the bootlooping problem occurs again and it cannot complete flashing.
I also tried flashing TWRP from fastboot, it says that it's successful, but when I try fastboot boot twrp.img, the same problem: MI logo and constant reboots.
I also tried to use fastboot oem edl mode and my phone is recognized as Qualcomm device, but MiFlash can't flash in this mode, saying that hello packet is not received.
At this point, I don't know what else to do and wondering if this is a hardware problem. Any ideas?
Did you tried to press VOL UP + POWER BUTTON after you flash TWRP? If flashing TWRP doesn't work Try to flash Official MIUI RECOVERY 3.0 That's all you can do. Otherwise you should give it to Mi customer service for faster solution.
I have the same problem, did you manage to solve this issue?
hello guys,
here is a solution, open your phone backpart and put your phone to edl mode by testpoint pinout,
then try to flash latest stable rom if fail then flash latest dev rom.

hi my redmi note 6 pro is stuck on mi logo its not getting over it .
i dont have any pc or laptop at my home how can i solve this issue
during this lockdown ,and now its showing charging in shutdown mode?
Hello All i have the same problem stuck on MI logo
I have tried to wipe through Mi recovery but no use
I cant flash anything because the bootloader is locked
and i dont want to use EDL mode cuz i am stuck at home and dont have necessary tools for that
My question is can we flash anything using Fastboot command or can we ON usb debugging through fastboot be cause Mi flash wont work until USB debugging in On
Please help
Try another flash tool i.e. Qfil_flash_tool
Hi, I have even tried EDL mode to flash latest rom (android 9,miui11.0.4) using Mi flash tool,still facing the same issue.
It constantly reboots while on charging, and it doesn't turn on otherwise(2 Sec of that logo and then it fades away).
Please Help
any one find solution for this?
Hi, my problem is simpler, so is there any suggestion.
after last official update, due to the internal partition was encrypted, update wasn't finished and I am stuck on MI logo when restarted the phone.
bootloader is unlocked and I can enter to (orangefox) recovery, yet I am not sure what is the best way just to return phone to the bootable state? I presume some wiping is to be done, which is not the problem, just to have as short procedure as possible, preferably without need to re-flash clean ROM from recovery?

Hi,
My phone is actually dying and I don't know how to recover it this time.
I had a perfectly working setup with latest weekly update of Xiaomi eu MIUI , TWRP and magisk, and know even fastboot is not responding.
I usually don't like when people say that, but I think a malware did it, as my apps started not responding in a few minutes, and the reboot finished the job.
Now it won't boot anymore, when it's plug the notification led is red, and fastboot is detected but commands are stuck.
Also, TWRP is neither accessible from "power + vol up" since last miui eu update, nor from fastboot since the "accident"
If someone have any advice on how to unlock fastboot, flash back the rom or any other way to recover my phone, please help
Also, if you want to know the rest of the story, it's here...
I was using my phone as usual, trying to setup a bridge openvpn connection. (like everyone :laugh: )
The issue is that the only app claiming to do that isn't free, and I want to be sure I can make it work before spending any money.
So I tried to patch it and different apks (I know it's bad...), and while transferring an apk from my laptop to my phone, I noticed the transfer was kinda slow for a few seconds (nothing worrying, but unusual)
Then some of my apps didn't want to launch and, back to the app drawer, most of my apps had their package names, with no icons...
It was at this moment Jackson I knew I screwed up...
I then tried rebooting, and the phone stayed a few minutes on the MIUI screen, then shut off.
After a reboot, I noticed the red led, the absence of boot animation, and the bootloop.
Obviously, if I had a fastboot access, it would be easy to boot on TWRP and then flash back my rom properly but I can't...
EDIT: to make this clearer (I know the post above is a little bit messy), I have the following issues:
- No access to TWRP (for flashing)
- Fastboot is accessible but broken enough so flash/boot to twrp is not possible
- I just though of EDL mode, but "fastboot oem edl" doesn't seems to work
- I prefer to avoid opening my phone (to access to the EDL test points)
EDIT2: You can't flash anything in EDL mode without specific autorisations from xiaomi, so this mode becomes way more useless than on my previous Mi A1. I managed to miraculously flash some things by using miflash in fastboot mode. Maybe working on a windows os instead of gnu/linux helped somehow...

My problem is almost same, i unlock the bootloader to flash xiaomi.eu rom from global rom, unlocking and flashing custom recovery was done smoothly, when i tried to flash xiaomi.eu rom version 12.0.8 it booted back to recovery, and i format the data partition and booted to system, and same result. I tried global its same result.
Then i tried miflash tool, " antirollback error ".
Now i don't know what to do. Hope my precious poco f2 pro is not bricked, coz i can still manage to boot in custom recovery, and can use miflash tool but error.
Can someone out there help me please. Thanks in advance.

Since you have access to a properly working fastboot and recovery, I believe there is always a way to recover your phone.
I'll be glad to help you but for now, I'm more focused on my issue.
Only thing, while using miflash, be careful to never lock your bootloader since you would have to open your phone to access EDL mode in case of bootloop
(but you can lock it afterwards if you want)

i found this for you on the LOS rom for poco f2 pro (am not the autor) this is for the "Anti-rollback error" (i hope that can help you):
romabah said:
Gentlemen with EU versions of Poco F2 pro, could you help me out?
Right now i am running 12.0.2.0 QJKEUXM.
To flash Lineage i first need to flash MIUI V12.0.3.0.QJKMIXM via MiFlash. I tried to do that but got an Anti-rollback error.
Checking via fastboot i saw that my phones anti rollback value is 1, but MIUI V12.0.3.0.QJKMIXM firmware has an anti rollback of 0.
Some folks say to delete first 5-6 lines in text editor from .bat file, but at the same time people tell everywhere to NOT flash firmware with lower value that your current anti rollback.
Any advice? How did other EU folks fix this?
Edit: I fixed it! I will NOT and cannot claim that this will fix all rollback error's, but it fixed mine.
0) This is applicable to fastboot version of MIUI V12.0.3.0.QJKMIXM (aka tgz file that you need to extract twice)
1) Move the extracted firmware directory imi_global_images_V12.0.3.......ets.ets. ( map with flash_all.bat, images ) to C: directory and rename to something short, like xiaomiFirm.
This will solve a lot of weird error's as MiFlash doesnt like long directories
2) Within the moved map open flash_all.bat with text editor and delete everything starting and including "::check anti_version" to and including "echo %..."
This removes the anti rollback check somehow. The reason for only editing flash_all.bat is because this is the .bat file that is run when you choose clean all option in MiFlash, i assume you dont want to clean all and lock now do you?
3) After finishing flashing mine gave error Not catch checkpoint flash is not done, but booted normally. Gave me a heart attack.
Sanity check: When running cmd "fastboot getvar anti" it returned "anti: 1"
Meaning i just flashed a ROM with anti of 0 on a phone with a anti value of 1. At least i believe so.
In any case, thank all for giving feedback for other ways of fixing this.

It just need a good memory wipe and android replacement
As I managed to get to emergency mode, I can now easily replace its software
EDIT: I didn't know that for these xiaomi devices, you need very specific autorisations to flash something with EDL... Fortunately, after messing around with miflash, I managed to unlock myself out of this infinite loop

Well,
By using edl mode and miflash, I got some errors as I was not authorised to do this operation, so I rebooted to fastboot, reused miflash, and I don't know which kind of magic did that but after some files flashed and an error, I was able to boot on TWRP. With this done, I tried to keep my data but didn't worked, and as I have everything constantly backup, I dicided to do a flashall.
now, I think I have a good MIUI base to flash MIUI EU back

My imei got lost so I tried to flash eng rom through MI flash to fix it. It flashes all except certain file called (aop. Mbn) so I tried to flash it by cmd commands via fastboot and then the phone bricked.. No booting to fastboot anymore , no recovery. even with disconnecting battery and reconnecting again... Phone only recognized in Edl mode and when flashing through MI flash it asks for edl authorization... Account login successful but then flash fail cuz account is not authorized. So I think The only solution will be authorized account or patched prog_ufs file
Hi All,
I had my Redmi 9A flashed and was using the original stock rom unlocked and rooted. Since I ran into some issue with applications failing to start I decided to reflash with the OTA update zip. Now that I did that the phone keeps rebooting anc connecting it to a PC with all the drivers available including MTK, QUALCOM the system won't detect the phone and the phone will never boot into bootloader, or recovery or EDL mode.
I have tried various ADB and Fastboot commands but they would work only when the system detects thd phone and the phone does not reboot.
Has anyone come across such issues ?
MiUnlock tool failed
MiFlash tool failed
Sp flash tool failed
All other flash tools failed too
hola ya encontraste alguna soluciĆ³n estoy en el mismo caso
have you tried holding power button + vol down button till fastboot shows up?
Answer to the first post
when you have rooted your phone, it modifies the boot.img file, and the original MIUi ROM detects that, and bootloops
The fix its to flash vbmeta.img via fastboot, using the keys (power + vol down )
yes and neither fastboot with volume down nor recovery with volume up appears ... please have any suggestions or it will be that this device has no remedy
Hi,
I think I have the same issue: I tried to root and corrupted/incompatible vbmeta security, and device will continuously self-reset, will not enter fastboot, and no recovery.
I must remove battery to stop it from draining due to bootloop.
From what I searched, my guess, there is only one hope: to use the hardware test-pins to force EDL mode.
I found some info on EDL pins for many other devices (9c 9T... ) but not for 9A.
So please, if anyone knows, has the PCB layout, please post a picture and explain how to force enter EDL mode.
After that, I guess SP flasher can be used.

Good morning!
While attempting to flash a stock MIUI 10 ROM into my Xiaomi Redmi Note 7, to downgrade back to Android 9.0 due to some app compatilibty issue, I messed up big time and my phone is now stuck in a loop where the screen turns on, nothing shows up, then it restarts, going off for a few seconds and turning on again.
Power Button + Volume UP successfully brings me to the stock recovery 3.0 from xiaomi.
Power Button + Volume DOWN fails to bring me to the fastboot mode.
If I select the Connect with MIAssistant in the recovery the phone will show up as "sideloaded" after using the command adb devices, but the MIPCSuite app does not see it and the command adb restart bootloader also fails to bring up the fastboot mode, it just gets stuck in the loop again.
More context on what went wrong and caused this: I followed an online tutorial to flash a rom using the MIFlash app, so I unlocked the bootloader and tried to flash the rom usin xiaomi's tool. I got a failed to check sparse crc error code and it went downhill from there when I tried to fix things reading multiple threads on the issue. I tried deleting some lines from the flash_all.bat file and tried to flash it again but then the flashing process went seemingly forever so I aborted the operation and now this loop happens. I tried a few more times but with no success.
The first time I tried to use the tool I used the clean all and lock option so I'm not certain if the miflash tool locked the bootloader regardless of the outcome of the flashing attempt.
Is there hope? Can I fix this phone if I only have access to stock recovery and nothing else (although it shows up in adb devices but can't get into fastbootmode) ?
Thanks a lot to anyone who took the time to read and possibly help.
Both ADB and Fastboot are Android-side launched by device's bootloader. If you can't enter Fastboot mode then my guess is there is something is wrong with curently installed Android.
BTW: If you lock device's bootloader then bootloader attempts to load device's Stock ROM.

I finally managed to fix it through the Emergency Download Mode (EDL). It requires Xiaomi Authentication which I bypassed using this guide: https://www.droidwin.com/fix-mi-account-authorization-unbrick-xiaomi-edl-mode/
With that setup I flashed a stock rom using the MiFlash tool.
