Don't worry dude. You can still take your phone to fastboot mode. Download a FASTBOOT rom (*.gz or *.tgz) from mifirm.net then flash it via mi-flash (download from mi-globe). Follow the instructions on mifirm.net

Ok I understand that and I've downloaded the ROM but there is this sentence "1. If Fastboot firmware. The ext. must be tgz. If not. Rename it from .gz to .tgz. Extract it by WinRAR" and also these sentences "ZIP. ZIP ROM using Update function in System or TWRP EU. EU ROM flash using TWRP".
I am just completely lost
To be simple : your flash went wrong probably with a bad rom download or a bad flash method.
If I were you I'd reread the post on installing Xiaomi.eu rom and redownload the whole.
Install OrangeFox recovery with the corresponding thread in the forum and ask if you're still lost
By the way, how did you flash that ROM?

Well I started on this site https://magiskmanager.com/#How_to_I...Version_220_on_Android_Custom_Recovery_Option and downloaded the stuff that the site said was needed
And which recovery are you using ?
You should be able to reflash stock and recover your phone using the MiFlash tool.
Download fastboot ROM here, and MiFlash tool here.
And also the problem is, that my phone (Poco X3 NFC) isn't being shown in the MiFlash software. I can access the fastboot screen on my phone and yet it still won't show up

Mate that's just caused by something going wrong. The only times I get that message is the times I have tried to flash a GSI.
I don't know if you can with this unit?
I've fixed that about 5 times with miflash or miflashpro.
Do you have miflash?
It forces a reformat of Miui recovery rom an then you can start again. Just pay close attention to the bottom right hand corner an make sure it is off default. Default is 'relock bootloader'.

The problem is that my computer can't find my phone. Nothing happens when I plug in the USB-C Cable. It doesn't work on the Fastboot screen nor does it work on "the System has been destroyed" screen. I am pretty sure I downloaded the neeeden drivers. And also, the phone was being found/recognized in the working state.
You need to extract then extract again. You double extract with a fastboot image. Then in miflash you find where you extracted that image to. Then hit refresh in miflash an your device should show in miflash. Miflash can be a tricky beast till you have practiced using it a few times
Hi. If you haven't fixed it yet you can try this: Download stock ROM from here (make sure it's the right one for your device!), choose Recovery ROM download link. Put it in your ADB folder. Do the same with recovery. Download this version of recovery as well. Enter fastboot mode on your device and connect it to your PC. Make sure it's detected. If not, try a different USB port on your computer. Open ADB using Open CMD.bat file in ADB folder.
Type in:
fastboot flash recovery OrangeFox-R11.0_6_Alpha-Unofficial-surya.img (hit Enter)
Type in:
fastboot reboot recovery
You should now be able to access your device internal storage from your PC. Copy the downloaded ROM file and OrangeFox-R11-Unofficial-Beta-surya-10-01.zip to your phone (put them in "Download" folder so they're easy to find).
Using Orange Fox recovery file manager find OrangeFox-R11-Unofficial-Beta-surya-10-01.zip and flash it then REBOOT TO RECOVERY.
Using Orange Fox recovery file manager find your ROM file and flash it. Do not reboot! Hit BACK and choose WIPE in Orange Fox menu (Trashcan icon, second from the right) and switch to Format Data at the top. Read the instructions and follow them by typing YES. Reboot to system. You should now have a working device with a clean stock ROM and a custom recovery installed and keep messing around with it

Just two more question.
Where does one get the ADB folder? I may have downloaded a few but I don't know if those were good/correct for my device.
And what can I do when the device is not being detected by my computer? Like should I download and install some new drivers?
But can you reach the fastboot splash in your phone?

Have an issue with my phone tonight, I flashed the latest CM12.1 nightly, which then reverts the bootloader version back to HHZ12d
I then flashed the latest img fle for the bootloader (which I have done before with no issues, using the same file)
However my phone will no longer boot up. If I try and boot, it goes straight into FASTBOOT Mode. If I select Start, the screen goes blank, but it is lit up and the phone doesn't start (I have left it like this for ages)
If I select Recovery, I get the same.
Restart Bootloader just takes me back to Fastboot.
I have tried ADB, but it won't see my phone in devices, so I can't even factory reset, or flash another recovery (It was running TWRP)
Any ideas? I'm stumped

The first sreen indicates that your bootloader fine. As for for the second screen... You probably have old or hacked drivers. If you could flash the bootloader with that then there is no problem with the drivers.
Have you tried flashing the stock rom? Run flash-all.bat. it will wipe everything.

HI Guys
I bought one chinese mi4 last year on china, I was there, and yes it's is original.
The problem is that I cant install google play, because is blocked. SO I need to upgrade the ROM.
My UPDATER app is not working, when i tried use this to update, when I chose the file, the updater close, so I cant use.
I tryed to update by recovery, but when I click update update file.zip on system one, the phone reboots. tryied CUStom rom, developer rom, global rom. etc...
SO i read a loot of forums and try to install another recovery by fastboot , like CWM, It's not working because i am no root in my device
tryied by adb fastboot and by mi flash, not working " 'recovery' not support flash"
I rooted with kingoo root, but same problem.
So I cant update, can´t install new recovery, I cant install a developer room to root.
I really need help, I tryed everything that i know, checked a lot of foruns, but alone I cant solve this.
I need help please, I fell my xiomi it's completely blocked...
If you download the official rom from miui.com you can flash it with original recovery or you could try the fastboot flash package without using any recovery.
Flashing a custom recovery do not require rooted rom.
To get to fastboot use the command "adb reboot bootloader" then flash your custom recovery. CWM is outdated (i might be wrong) but twrp recovery is much better, just google twrp and download the one for cancro.
If any of those above is not working for you then it might be fake.

No I cant.
when I choose update.zip on system one on recovery menu, I dont get the menu to update, and click yes, just by clicking on the "update.zip on system one" the phone restarts.
I think I need a way to remove a recovery by hand, as low level I think.

Have you tried downloading the fastboot flash package? Download the Global Developer rom for MI4 from the link i've provided and put your device into fastboot then run one of the *.bat file if you are on windows. Before that make sure fastboot detect your device by "fastboot devices".
I do not know any other ways to flash recovery. Maybe others can help you with that.

So I rooted my OnePlus 6 through magisk using the command prompt method. And for some odd reason whenever I go to flash the TWRP image it just comes up " the image file is corrupt". I don't know if it's the TWRP download link on there website. But I've tried it on my laptop and another laptop. I keep getting corrupt image file. Anybody know a way to get TWRP without PC or a different method.
did you try downloading the file again

Where twrp.img is the img file from TWRP. You can drag and drop or manually change directory to install your TWRP. It works either way.
Yeah ive been reading forums and apparently it's nothing to do with what I'm doing. It's a security update on windows. I just uninstalled it. Gonna try to mount an img file see if it works.

Just to confirm, you're following this procedure exactly? Particularly the part in red? I just ask because I've see so many people convinced they're doing it right only to realize they had one thing wrong.

Hook phone to pc USB with factory red cable (or other usb-c cable that you have tested)
Reboot phone into bootloader
On your pc, go to the location where you downloaded the twrp-3.2.1-0-enchilada.img image
Type fastboot devices to make sure that you get a response showing your phone and serial number
Type fastboot boot twrp-3.2.1-0-enchilada.img
Your phone will boot into twrp YOU WILL BE ASKED TO ENTER YOUR PIN/PATTERN/PASSWORD. IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE, TWRP WILL LOCK UP; YOU MUST GO BACK TO THIS STEP: "Reboot phone into bootloader"
From twrp, install the twrp-installer-enchilada-3.2.1-0.zip that you downloaded on your phone
Disconnect your phone from the pc
Reboot twrp back into recovery. You should now be rebooted to the official twrp.
If you had magisk installed, then flash magisk or you will bootloop back to twrp

Yes those exact steps. And I'm using the factory red cable it came with . I just reinstalled windows 10. So I'll see if that fixed the issue

I tried the Pixel Experience way, I ran the command "fastboot flash recovery" under Windows (opens a shell window that immediately closes) and under Linux (nothing happens), and I also tried the Xiaomi flash tool which ends up with a "cannot find the file flash all bat".
Would someone have any idea?

Thanks a lot for your reply. I'll try that as soon as I have some time.
Just another question:
I am running MIUI Global 11.0.4.0 | Stable (PFGMIXM) at the moment. Which is not the same as you indicated (I believe yours is Indian version dated 22 Oct 2019).
This page does not include any Global rom: https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/archive/firmware/violet/
And the Global ROM available on MIUI website under the RN7Pro page (https://c.mi.com//miuidownload/detail?device=1700360) is noted "lavender" and not "violet" - and I do not want to risk installing the wrong firmware, I've read a few topics and it does not ends well.
So bottom line: which one should I work with?
thanks again!

- Then Tap the power + vol up(2 times vol up) together once or twice and the AOSP recovery menu will pop up
- I then type adb sideload NameofthePErom.zip
- Then: Use the volume keys to select Factory Reset and confirm. ( If you want to format data if not just ignore this part )
- Reboot!
Am I correct?
I'll give it a try even though I don't understand why flashing aosp would work when flashing other stuff didn't... But who knows!
Will let you guys know anyway.

Thanks!
Based on PE instructions (https://telegra.ph/Flashing-PE-for-the-first-time-using-the-AOSP-Recovery--Or-updating-12-06) and if I understand properly:
- I download the firmware and Aosp recovery
- I enter in fastboot and connect the phone to PC, then I type fastboot flash recovery.img (in folder Download+Recovery)
- Then reboot into the new recovery
- Then Tap the power + vol up(2 times vol up) together once or twice and the AOSP recovery menu will pop up
- I then type adb sideload NameofthePErom.zip
- Then: Use the volume keys to select Factory Reset and confirm. ( If you want to format data if not just ignore this part )

Also check the recovery in the extracted folder, I got a twrp recovery so I guess I have facee issues with flashme.bat (immediate close).
If u face that issue, download aosp recovery separately or from their telegram channel and flash using fastboot cmd and do the rest..

well it would not work either. that is not a problem though, I'll survive with the MIUI rom!
thanks
Hello guys. I was too confident and bought Poco F2 Pro that is bricked - it keeps rebooting and never reaches the system. Now I am in trouble. So I would like to fix it, but it has locked bootloader. What are my options? I can get into fastbood mode and recovery mode, I tried the "wipe all data" option in recovery mode - to no effect. Thanks beforehand for any answers!
EDIT: PC Suite will not connect, eventhough there is such option in the recovery mode. There are only 3 options in the recovery - PC suite, wipe all data and reboot.

Thank you, now I struggle with finding out if that is a global or EU version. Could you please help me out with that? Can it be found out with IMEI or SN or something?
PC suite is 2.2.0_7032_2717 - seems like there isn´t a newer one

I downloaded both files from this link:
https://c.mi.com/thread-2504118-1-0.html
Ran the first file, y - enter, y - enter, then it writes this:
After next Y, it will write a lot of things for a split second and then close.
Then I run the second program according to the instructions - drag and drop the zip rom into xiaomiadb.exe
Which gives me this message
and immediately restarts the phone, that will afterwards go to recovery mode again.

Hold on, I am finally able to connect my phone to the PC suite, so I may follow that first, or what do you suggest? It offers me an update, so I like that better. Right now downloading the update via PC suite.
This is the ROM I downloaded: https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/lmi/stable/V12.2.4.0.RJKMIXM/

Choose restore not update and use the latest version of Pc suite
Clicking restore does nothing. I am using the version 4.0.529 now.

Sorry, do you mean Mi PC Suite? Mi Flash is supposed to work only with unlocked bootloaders, isn´t it? Latest version of PC suite I could find was 4.0.529 and that is the first one I tried that managed to recognize my phone.
What about the select file option and flashing the rom I downloaded previously?

Also u need to flash stock recovery.img,
extract recovery.img from stock rom and flash it using adb fastboot method. Reboot to stock recovery and navigate to mi-asisstant. Now connect your phone with mi pc suite. there will be listed rom version of your device. Download exactly same rom (full recovery rom) and flash on pc suite
