Redmi 6 EDL Test Point?

My Redmi 6 was Hard Bricked by installing the wrong TWRP (check out the other posts that describe this problem) and none of the solutions mentioned worked for me; then recently I discovered that most of the other Xiaomi/Redmi phones have what's called "EDL Mode", or Test Point Mode which let's you repair a Hard Bricked device even with a locked bootloader. Does anyone know if this mode can be activated on this device (and if so, with which points on the device)?

Mtk does'nt have edl mode (and maibi test poin too)
U need mi auth account to unbrick

How would I unbrick it with a Mi Auth Account?

In my opinion, you do not have because if you had an authorized account, you would know how to probably inform them how to repair phones. If you have a fastboot, you will repair the phone with the mi falsh program.
If you don't have a fastboot, then the spFlash tool will put Da and scatter and auth file there, if the error Status brom cmd fail (0xC00600005) means that you do not have permission to repair it and you will practically not repair it yourself. See thread Hard Brick redmi 6, no Fastboot mode.If I am wrong, somebody correct me.

I read somewhere that MediaTek has a test point equivalent, gold points, and then I saw this video. Would this fix my Redmi 6?

See here https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=907017&st=7120 There is a lot more about redmi 6. What you show is a total demolition of the phone. All forums (hovetek, gsmdevelopers, 4pda, xda, miui etc. ) say that you can't fix it yourself, you need to find someone with a service account. If it were otherwise they would have written somewhere about it and not immediately showed it. Don't look for a solution on youtube because it's the same fake.

Thanks bro, that russian site led me to miflashpro.com and that tool did everything I needed. It helped me flash the stock rom (zip file, not fastboot) in recovery.
I had this problem: "system destroyed" message after upgrade gone wrong, no unlocked bootloader, no Mi account on the phone, USB debugging turned off. Been struggling with this for a week, nothing worked until I found miflashpro.

How?

I saw in another post that you are aware of your chinese version. So you probably already tried flashing this version ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/official-oneplus-9-oxygen-to-color-and-back.4256457/ ) just patch the to Oxygen again on the chinese version.

How i can patch i told my phone is stuck in Edl mode hard brick

So no fastboot commands are working? Fastboot devices says nothing? Say what you tried, and your current situation in as much detail as possible. People can only help you when they understand what happened and what is still possible to do.

Brother my device is stuck in Edl mode because when i connect to pc it show me qualcomm 9008 in device manager..
I tried all Fastboot commands, power + , power - button & power button but nothing happened still device stuck in Edl mode and also msm tools of india doesn't work

Did you ever get a good flash from msm tool? If not try the original chinese version phone came with.
Also you can try holding power button until phone reboots but nothing to boot too will just go back to edl.

Do you told me about solution?
My phone battery was 100% when it's stuck in Edl mode any idea for 100% to 0%?

Holding the power button an unreasonable long time always worked for me did it with 6 and 7pro. Even if it goes back to edl if you have msm ready and waiting for device v when it reboots to edl should pick it up and begin flash

See brother

I see what you mean. Not sure what sahara error state is. Not sure you'll be able to fix that on your own. You may need to contact oneplus see if they can help. They tend to be willing to help in most cases. But may cost you since I'm sure this wouldn't be covered under warranty.

sahara error usually happens when you flash the wrong firmware.

"Payload dumper 64" can get the files for you that's an application there is also a python script which does the same.

I personally used "payload dumper 64" then flashed the files vis fastboot to recover 2 Chinese variant until now( you have to use the right rom which is normally used to switch from Chinese rom to Oxygen)
This is just how I recovered the phones.
Edit: sorry it's late you are probably looking for the msm download tool files, I probably messed things up

[HARD BRICKED] How can I fix my hardbricked realme device?

Hi. My phone is realme 5 pro and I've been using custom rom recently and decided to go back to stock rom. I was successfully able to go back to stock rom and then tried to flash a custom kernel which destroyed my boot.img . I was confused on what to do and accidentally locked my bootloader. Now my phone will only turn on and turns off for around 20 seconds. I can't perform fastboot, recovery mode, or open my device. I did some research and found that the only way to restore my device from its state is using edl mode(which I don't know how to use). I follow some tutorials about edl and I was able to make my device appear as "QUALCOMM HS-USB QDLoader 9008" and doesn't know what to do next.
Can I still be able to revive my device without going to a repair shop? And if possible, can you guide me?
Any answers will be appreciated!

To flash device in EDL mode you need to use msm tool then flash your stock ROM.
You need proper driver to use msm tool with your device while in EDL mode.
If you're not sure what you're doing then just give it to a professional.
Goodluck.

I brick realme 5 last year and I give it to repairing shop they opened whole parts and fixed why how that happens?

SAAAAAMMMEE Problem !! did you find a fix ?

Try MSM again, on a different PC and with a different USB cable *if* you can.
Aside from that contact OnePlus.
Was this your first time using MS download tool? Have you succesfully flashed to stock with MSM before?

i think i have messed up partitions.

Question Stuck in EDL mode Xiaomi Poco x3 pro

After playing with some custom ROM, my device is stuck in EDL mode. i.e Stuck in primary bootloader. I cannot get to the secondary bootloader. either, recovery mode or fast boot mode.
Solution and issues faced.
Solution 1: Flash original Rom via Mi flash tool.
Issues: Xiaomi restricts the user to flash room when the device is in EDL mode. After some research found only authenticate accounts can install ROM in EDL mode via the mi flash tool. It will ask for EDL authentication. that I don't have access to.
I think the only solution is to somehow reverse back to fast boot or recovery mode and install back the rom.
Has anybody faced such issue and know the solution.

Your device can't be stuck in EDL mode timeless, to get it out of there, you just have to disconnect it from the PC and press the three buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds.
A different thing is that your device can't enter to fastboot nor recovery. Firstly get it out from EDL mode and see which modes are available after that.

My secondary bootloader files are corrupted and can't get to it. Have only access to EDL mode. Can't get back to fast boot or recovery mode. The only option found is to somehow install flashable firmware via QFIL and get back to the secondary bootloader to access the flash tool of vendor-specific devices.

Well, to be clear and not put effort where no results have to be expected; there’s no a secondary bootloader, this device have a fastboot mode (accessed usually pressing PWR + volume down buttons), a recovery mode (usually accessed pressing PWR + volume up), an EDL mode (usually accessed on an unlocked device pressing the two volume buttons at same time while connecting to PC or through test point method), and additionally a user space friendly fastbootd mode that only can be accessed using either ADB or fastboot command, also can be accessed through some custom recoveries in the PWR menu.
If you are totally sure you tried all the combination keys indicated WHILE your device is off, then you have to move it to the next:
- Search for a patched Firehose file either for your specific device or from a device with the same motherboard that can work too onto your device, this is to bypass the Mi account authorization or to work in qfil.
- Search for an engineer firmware for your device, if something exists have to bypass the Mi Flash tool restriction.

Man, you are not reading well, it's not so simple like that, I can't give you the exact solution in your hands but I giving you the direction that you have to take in order to find some solution and avoid taking it to a service center, not all countries have one at hand like mine.
- Search for a programmer firehose similar to your device if the exact for your model doesn't exist.
- Search for a programmer firehose for sm7150, it's the same as yours. Take a look here https://www.droidwin.com/patched-firehose-file/
- Search for an engineering/combination ROM for your device (it must be specific for your device, not for a similar one), this is one example https://testedrombd.com/poco-x3-pro-eng-fix-firmware/ some engineering ROM have the ability to bypass restrictions, not always, but it is worth to give it a try.
- And the last resort, exploiting/modifying/editing firehose vulnerabilities, read this https://github.com/bkerler/edl

Yeah. Its not simple. Prior to giving link ,I have tried those methods. Thanks for the information
From my findings.
1. Patch programmer firehose file for sm7150 not found anywhere. Tried using different patch firehose file of other compatible devices that uses 860 chipset. Unsuccessful result.
2. Tried Engineering ROM of Vayu. Unable to bypass restrictions. It ask for edl authentication same as of vendor specific rom. I think the reason is xiaomi restrict user to flash room via edl mode. Still searching some way to bypass authentication.
3. Last resort. modifying firehose and hex files. Need a lot of research.
Didn't find any solution for poco x3 pro specific devices in community.
Can We install 860 chipset flashable frimware of oneplus via QFIL . Need to tried that one. Is it possible.?

QFIL is slightly outdated, so it needs a special programmer, even I don't know if it can work for new UFSs (or a limited range of them) it used to work for devices with eMMCs.
Xiaomi restricts users to flash in EDL mode using Mi Flash tool (the restriction can't apply beyond this tool).
A firmware from other device definitely will brick it.
Research if the PX3P has a counterpart device, I mean Xiaomi released every year a certain model for Global and the same model (with other name) as it happened i.e. with the Mi A3 and the MiCC9 and other models though, in this case it could be possible that the programmer file for this model could work for you.
Also, I saw on the OnePlus thread a tool capable to flash through EDL, maybe replacing the files it could work, I didn't try it yet.
