After installing an update my device started re-booting at MI screen. Then after going through many forums, I flashed by using mi flash windows application. Even this didn't work, so I used adp drivers to flash twrp and installed a custom ROM through this recovery. In TWRP everything works perfectly fine, even the mi recovery works fine. But as soon as I start my device it boot loops at the logo.
As a last resort, I submitted my mobile in a service center and now the service guy says that my mobile's motherboard is faulty and it would cost me around Rs 10K.
How can I trust the service guy, how could TWRP and mi recovery work if there is an issue in motherboard?
Please clarify my queries, Spending 10k on a 11k mobile is a waste.
Don't ever fall in service centre guys words.
Google for the "how to fix mi4i bricked"
please help me guys !!! I hard bricked my phone
I have a redmi note 7 pro and I had to repair IMEI so I rooted my phone successfully . then I used qpst tool in diag mode to restore modified qcn file . In pc the app said writing was successful but after rebooting my phone IMEI didn't changed , so I read in a thread if this method didn't work , you should wipe efs in twrp's terminal
using following commands :
"
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p14
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p15
"
Stupid me did this and after rebooting , my phone shut down and completely hard bricked . pressing power button alone or with volume up or down do nothing . no vibration or any sign of life . even laptop doesn't recognize my phone anymore with usb . please help me guys . I don't know what should I do . I heard deep flash edl cables don't work on xiaomi's new phones , and for going to edl mode you should open your phone and short circuit test pins and you should have an authorized xiaomi account for doing this . my bootloader is unlocked and the phone is rooted . I bought my phone just a week ago and It's without warranty In my country .
can I fix it without opening the phone's back cover ?
Is there anyway to save my phone ?
thanks for reading this .
is the phone charged? it is not normal to not even get into fastboot mode.
I had my back removed. there is nothing serious. looks like new. go to a service, put it on a hob and remove it very easily.
Bro
Mi community or mi forum is not opening in my redmi note 7 pro. Please give some suggestions

It's charged . When I connect my phone to charger notification led doesn't turn on like it used to be and my laptop doesn't recognize it with usb anymore . I saw in youtube that they heat the phone to open Its back .
I think that might damage battery or hardware or back glass of my phone . Isn't there a way to fix it without opening ? It's been only a week that I bought this phone
if you have the bootloader unlocked and the phone is associated with your miui account, you do not need an authorized account. you just have to put it in edl mode. but I do not advise you to remove the back alone. go to the gsm service. it comes out very easily if you are good and have the necessary tools and does not damage the phone
I bricked mine by downgrade and after contacting Xiaomi and supplier and getting nowhere the only solution is to purchase a replacement M/B from China at £80. Cheaper than replacement phone. You will get no joy from Xiaomi who just say take it to one of their shops. There are none in the UK
Last night I unlocked my bootloader and installed twrp recovery but somehow my mind changed so I thought to revert back changes and i download stock recovery of Realme 5 pro from somewhere(can't remember source) and after flashing it without checking it I ran a need command "fastboot flashing lock " and after that I rebooted my device and now it shows "the current image (boot/recovery) have been destroyed and can not boot " and now I can't even boot into fastboot mode to do something to revert back it .....At last, I'm here for suggestions on how can I make my device run normally.

Also when i connect my smartphone with the computer it doesn't detect any device just showing that message on loop
My suggestion may sound weird but i suggest you take the phone to your nearest realme service center if they asked what happend to the device tell them this "I updated my device because there is a new update and while it was updating and rebooted it sudenly got this problem"
When you go there act like a complete newbie
And dont forget to bring the proof of purchase or warranty card
Edit: I have done this way back when i bricked my oppo f5 since they are sister company i hope it also apply on realme

Thanks actually before reading your response, I talked to a realme someone from realme care and they said they can't say anything until they have a diagnostic so for that I took my device to a realme service center and told the truth that when I was trying to lock my bootloader again it happened it took me 2 and half hour but got my device software installed again without charges as it was still in warranty period .
BTW thanks IG it helped :laugh:

Lol, your fault is put "fastboot flashing lock" command, and your device is on custom recovery. My advice is, if you don't have a knowledge about flashing rom, maybe next time you should watch tutorial on youtube "How to flash stock rom". Yes, you will get brick if you still on custom recovery, you should flash stock recovery first if you want re-lock the bootloader.
My realme 5 pro has also bricked.
It seems that EDL mode can be used.
However, there is no tool that can be flashed for now.
Wait for the tool to be released. :_(

@SAiniChirag, bro i have realme x2 pro which has been stuck in bootloop and can't even access to fastboot or recovery as I locked bootloader with twrp and got this problem as you've mentioned realme service center installed software for free. So can I also take my phone to realme service center and get the software installed as my phone is under warranty. I'm worried about what can be done. Can you please reply on this bro it'd be very helpful?
Many thanks. I hope my issue also gets solved at service center without any hassle.
You can also let me any suggestions about what to say to service center..

To those who bricked there device by locking bootloader and cannot access fastboot or recovery were to go to nearest service center.. They will reflash it for free since its software related...
And also unlocking your phone will not void your warranty as realme stated on there twitter post and on realme community..
If you go to service center just tell them it got corrupted when your upgrading your device... simple as that...

Hi, as you said I sent my phone to sc because of bootloop but addition to flashing original rom they changed my screen and a mechanic part of device which I do not know what it is. My phone is realme 5i and there is a chronic problem of the phone like lagging, fast battery drain, and yellow color defect under sunlight on screen kind of problems after android 10 update(phone was working perfectly with android 9). But after sc repair lag and battery problem is gone completely. Do you think there was an manufacturing defect on some of realme 5i devices or flashing stock rom etc. reqiure changing part and screen?

Its hardware problem i guess and not related to rom flashing/update... And if its rom update then not only your phone would have the same problem but all realme 5i who recieved android 10 will have the same outcome like yours..
My phone is redmi 2. I accidentally installed wrong twrp in it and now it is stuck at white screen and does not even show mi logo. I cant go into recovery section.
I can't even flash it through mi flash tool as it's usb panel is damaged. It can only be charged and cannot be connected to pc.
Please tell me what to do ?
Take it to authorized service center.
bro,ineed your help,my phone just got hard brick after i flash,and now i dont know what to do
yesterday I accidentally deleted magisk, after that my smart phone got bootlooped, I was confused and didn't know what to do, then I thought about formatting the data, but there was an error in the process (orangefox ywrp)
with a reading like this failed to mount vendor
Well, after that I was even more confused, right, what really happened, after looking for many sources, I flashed it with Mi Flash, and I downloaded the rom file for my Poco X3 NFC, but suddenly flashed an error, flash xbl error , well, my cellphone was hit by a hard brick, what should I do, please answer, my parents are very angry with me
sorry,im bad at english
As long as phone can get powered on, it's not hardbricked, but softbricked.
My recommendation: take phone to authorized service center and let them try to fix it.
