Hi, my daughters Poco X3 (two months old from new, no issues thus far whatsover) decided today go into the main menu of Poco Recovery 3.0
thus far i have tried to reboot which just switches the phone off and on back to the same menu. I have also tried the connect with MiAssistent but as i never used that software before it doesn't recognise the device.
I have NOT tried wipe data yet, as i hope one of you has a solution that's avoiding that.
I'm currently trying to run the battery completely dead in the hope the phone then forgets this nonsense but i would assume there are more technical solutions to the problem than sheer luck.
thanks in advance for any help

Help guys, I just randomly restarted my TITAN to brag about my startup speed (she has a GS2), luckily she went in to get some water. I had updated it with the most recent HTC update two days ago, no problems there. Was developer unlocked without any hacking. I've tried re-rebooting it. It's not booting to recovery with the camera button down too. Theres an option to factory reset if I hold down the volume buttons on boot, but I really want that to be my last option, if it even works at all. Please tell me theres something I can do about this ... my heart is breaking!
try pulling the battery out and then restarting?
Moved to Q&A
Eh ... I did that, heck, i've even let the battery run out too. Plugged to my computer and it shows the charging icon. After a bit, it reboots (expectedly) and gets stuck at th logo all over again. I'm at my wits end. I really don't want to reset it; whether its all my precious data thats preventing me from doing it - or the fact that if it still doesn't work afterwards i'm totally screwed, I don't know.
//Sorry for posting in the wrong forum
Phew. So after about 6 hours of random button holding, battery pulling and facepalming, I decided to factory reset the phone. Funny thing is, as I rebooted and held the volume buttons, the download mode screen popped up! Luckily, since I had just updated the phone about two days ago, not only do I have a restore point, but its a recent one too! So glad.
Now the question, was it the update that caused this problem? I noticed that the OS version remained at 7720 after the update, didn't know what the BL/radio version were previously. Any TITAN owners care to chime in?
I had this exact problem with my Titan just a few weeks ago. I didn't have a restore point unfortunately. But had to go through the whole reset process
First of all, If I am copying an already existing Post I am sorry for that but I think i found nothing similiar to my "weird" situation here.
Now to my problem (with a short intro tho) :
I had my OPO for a half year, when i decided to root it. When i did this, I was a total rookie, so I just followed steps/guides I've found in the Internet. I unlocked Bootloader, installed TWRP-Menu and finally rooted my device. Everything went totally perfect for me and my device was running smooth and without any problems. But after some dirty- and some clean- updates(always only the cyanogen updates that were showen on my phone), my OPO randomly shut down. Earlier on, I made a Backup. So i wiped calvik&cache and thought i lost all my problems. But in the last weeks, new problems occured. So i started looking for them in the Internet. I found out, that i had a "bootloop"/ Softbrick on my phone. It randomly shut down and it sometimes felt like especially the standby-mode made my phone to go offline. After solving this problem aswell via a "zip" from the Internet that I installed via TWRP, my device was again stable for like two weeks. But then after a Night I faced a new Problem, my Phone was again offline. It shut down without doing anything from my side. I saw all indications for a hardbrick. So i tried to "rescue" my phone via the xda-guide. And randomly after plugging it into my pc via the usb-connection it rebooted. But this just created the newest and maybe biggest problem.
Right now: My phone shuts down after beeing in standby-mode for like 5minutes. Neihter my LED is blinking or anything else is happening. It has no Bootloop but sometimes I am again scared of having a Hardbrick.
For me as normal User, who just wanted to get more privacy on his phone, these Problems exceed my knowledge and that's why I posted my Problem here in this forum, full with people who might know how to fix this problem or even be experts in rooting mobiles.
P.S: Please excuse my bad english at some points. Try to overlook it )

Let me clear few of your terms
Bootloop : Your device spins on CyanogenMod logo
Hard brick : Your device won't even boot into recovery and when you press power button(10-15sec), it'll vibrate just once
Softbrick : Same as bootloop, but you can boot into your custom recovery like TWRP
The solution to all your problems is to flash fastboot/factory images of Cyanogen OS 12.1 (Tutorial link in general section). Make sure that you backup your internal storage.
Flash them and use it for 2 days, if you continue to face issues, quote me here or somebody else will help you on this board
Might be a hardware issue

I've had a similar issue arise in my OPO around a month back. The phone used to randomly switch off. In most cases it didn't switch on for around 10-15 minutes. I installed different roms, cleared data/dalvik .... you name it, I did everything, but the issue still persisted. I came to the realisation that it had to be a hardware issue. Took it to a service centre, where they confirmed it was an issue with the motherboard ( although initially they just flashed cm11 and handed it to me). So basically, my phone is with the service centre for the past 5 days and is awaiting the new part.
What I'm saying is, get it to the service centre as quickly as possible, if you're nearing the end of your warranty and get it analysed and fixed. Wish your OPO a speedy recovery

Thanks for the Information,
I really appreciate your Help. Just one question, is the backup that I can create via TWRP enough or should i backup everything seperatly?
And @p403nix, Thanks for your tip !!! That's a nice information, the only Problem about that is, that in my Homecountry the Oneplus Support is very terrible. I am in contact with the customer support tho, but I don't expect too much
Dear all,
On my redmi 6, I was on android 8.1 (10.3.6.0 cereus precisely) and I prepared myself to try android 9
I had exactly this recovery recovery-TWRP-3.3.0-0423-REDMI6-CN-wzsx150.img and I did the necessary (backup everything) to be ready for the worse
Don't ask me why but I +/- remembered that recovery was tricky with android pie and I stupdly decided to flash the latest recovery I found on TWRP: twrp-3.5.1_9-0-cereus.img
Just after the flash I said reboot to recovery but: I'm in a "bootloop" not the one people have when booting in android, it's before!
Whatever the power or vol+ / vol- combination, long press power etc. , the screen is black it vibrates every 5 sec and I cannot enter neither recovery (i can understand...) NOR fastboot!
First time it happened to me to be stuck at this level. I do not know what to do, I tried desperate physical manipulations and crawl the internet meanwhile, but I do not see any trick, only solution is for an android bootloop, but not "early phone boot" (the 1 second before recovery or fastboot)
Can someone save me?
Hi, you've got your phone hard bricked, which means, that it coould be fixed, but it takes a lot of time to find a solution or you'll spend days trying to fix it, but its just gonna be a waste of time.
You can try methods that other people did, and maybe you'll get lucky, and unbrick your phone.
Other fix, is that you're gonna take your phone to an authoried Xiaomi store and hope for the best.
There are 10s of threads on hard bricks on Redmi 6 (for example: removing your battery for a couple of minues and putting it back, using SP flash (but you must have an authorized Xiaomi account, ...)).
If none of my solutions worked, I suggest buying a new phone. Redmi 6 is old and unstable after all (it didnt get MIUI 12 because of "performace issues"), so I guess thats the best you can do.
Im not really an expert for this kinda stuff.
I hope this will help you, but Im not saying that I could solve the brick.
Hi Sucharek,
I put the phone to the back of a drawer one week ago, because the vibrations every 30s where annoying. This afternoon I just "found" it again, likely out of power (no screen no vibration), and I charged it. Hopefully, it rebooted, not too far, as expected, but at least in fastboot mode and I was able to flash the TWRP and everything was fine!
With much more time and tools, I could have maybe follow one of your advice like removing battery, but I saw your replay 'too" late.
Strange and funny thing, I couln'd pass the pattern at the system lock screen. I can't forget it: it's the same I use on many phones. As this remdi was rooted, it was a piece of cake to remove the lock
So, in this story, I learnt that the fastboot is not a kind of secure sanctuary where you can go that easily...

Hi Edwin, Im glad to hear that your phone is back and running
For any of you other people that have this problem, I would recommend removing and replugging the battery, but remmember, there are more solutions you can find on XDA, that could fix the hard brick.
Also, for those of you that are willing to wait days, weeks, or even months and dont have the tools to open your phone and removing and replugging the battery, I would recommend checking out other solutions or just buying a new phone. Like I said before, Redmi 6 is old and unstable and theres a high change that you might get a hard brick, so if you want to install a custom ROM or a custom recovery, think twice before you do it and always have a backup phone.
I wish you all the best in solving your hard brick
Hi,
I was using a few months ago my Oneplus 6 and decided to install the android 11 beta on it.
After few weeks it randomly restarted and now it can't connect to WiFi and cellular and after a while of it being powered up it restarts after a while.
I tried factory resetting and MSM Download Tool (downgrading to android 8.1) but to no avail.
Then I tried to see the IMEIs of the phone and they were blank same thing with the WiFi MAC.
I don't know what to do, but if somebody can help me recover this phone i'll appreciate it.

This is mostly likely a HW problem, based on what you described i would say it's the RF IC chip which is "SDR845".
Either get that replaced by a shop or replace the whole motherboard which costs more but requires less skills.
All parts can be purchased online but require some skill to pull off so a pro is recommended.
Dear Team,
I am also facing exactly the same problem.
And Thank you for pointing - IMEI n MAC address are not showing when problem is there.
Is there any solution
Works fine randomly in between & then goes bad in few hours....
Kindly help
I first got network IC replaced
Then after few days
I got motherboard replaced
And now after few days
Again the same problem scenario occurring
My repair shop person says now it can be battery fault...
Or may be something related to temperature
I still believe it is something solve able for sure...
Hi guys having a big issue with my phone for 1w now.
When I went to sleep it was fine but when I woke up it constantly restarts into MIUI recovery mode 5.0. Only other screen I can get into is fastboot.
I've tried fixing it myself by holding the power button/tapping it quickly like another thread suggested. Even tried bringing it to 2 different phone fixing stores but they said the only way to fix this is to wipe data but unfortunately I can't do that since I have important 2FAs in there I didn't get a chance to back up yet.
My theory is that my phone was running out of storage <1gb and it's been pending update forever and somehow it tried to update overnight but there was no storage left.
Anyone have any idea how to fix this? Very much regretting buying a Xiaomi phone now..
Thanks heaps! <3
