Hey guys! My Redmi Note 6 Pro got locked by xiaomi, and I don't have access to the account. I was able to unlock it, but every time I connect to wifi it just locks.
I tried this small tool, It did unlock the device, but still. It locks after connecting to Wi-Fi

is there any way to unlock it for cheap? My budget is about 3$
Flashing stock ROM in EDL didn't helped.
I got permissions from xiaomi, but since the phone is "locked" they are useless.
I found
prog_emmc_firehose files on internet for redmi note 6 pro and if I'll replace them with the ones in images folder it flashes properly.
Any ideas what could I do?
Also, I tried getting TWRP by changing recovery.img file to the twrp one, but I got the classic message of system destroyed, which I solved by flashing stock from with stock recovery
I saw people doing something if I give them IMEI or unlock code, could someone here do it for free or maybe for a small price of 3$?
No option you need to flash custom rom

hi all!
i have been lurking around XDA for years, and until taday I have always managed to find solutions to probs with my android devices...like I said... until today
Yesterday I have been given a Honor 6 H60-L12 device stuck in bootloop.
I only have been told that it has failed and update from emui 3.1 to emui 4, "stuck at 5%" (on 3 button flash i suppose)
I do not have any other information.
I can access recovery and bootloader.
I tried to flash a EMUI 3.0 on 3button flash, but it doesn't even access the 3B update interface, while it does access it (screen with a red exclamation mark) if no microsd is in use
Bootloader is locked and i obviously can't access the system to retrieve the codes necessary to request an unlock password.
My question to Honor 6 gurus here : is the phone gone for good ?!
If you have the box now, it can have the necessary infos you need

not quite..
there can be 3 possible scenes
1. you can find all the info needed for requesting unlock code
or you can use an app for pc (something called DC unlocker) which can unlock your phone without unlock code
2.try with another sd card (assuming that somehow sdcard has formatted and could not be used again for the purpose) , I know, sounds silly, but giving a try doesn't cost you anything
3. I think, during the update process, phone has copied the information from emui 4, and somehow aborted the installation, (most probably due to a faulty download), so phone recognizes itself as a marshmallow bootloader, so it might be wise to first flash a rollback package to emui 3 and then flash emui3 (freshly downloaded is recomemded)
or
you can try flash emui4 again, newly downloaded and extracted to any other sd card
if these three cant help it, then its the service center
and even that cannot help it
PHONE IS GONE FOR GOOD
HOPE I MADE SOME SENSE :fingers-crossed:, ALL THE BEST :good:.. PING ME HERE IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBTS, first option has the highest success rate

thank you very much thilak for you suggestions, i was going to pay the 4 euros needed to unlock using DC unlocker, when i tried, one last time, using a different version of the emui 3.1: same name of the pevious one (H60_EMUI3.1_Android5.1_6.1.1) but this one was almost 2 Gb while the other one was like 1.2 Gb... I installed it with the 3 buttons reset and it worked like a charm!

Greetings. After trying Derpfest on my Redmi Note 7 Pro, I decided to switch back to MiUI. I wiped out the entire Custom ROM, then installed Indian version firmware, and then installed the latest MiUI ROM in recovery mode (I prefer Orange Fox). After that, I wanted to relock my bootloader so I got the latest MiUI 11 fastboot ROM and then used MiFlash and used the clean_all_and_lock option. My device relocked it's bootloader, however, it turned out that several things like sensors or Find Device service were not working correctly. It also showed a message "Find device storage corrupted, your device is now unsafe". Looking for solutions, I ended up unlocking the bootloader again, getting back OFox, and installing the persist.img file which I extracted from my fastboot ROM. This fixed the issue with the sensors. But now, I still can't get access to services like Find Device (both from Xiaomi and Google). If I have to avoid the 'Find Device Storage corrupted' error, I have to unlock bootloader. If I have to lock bootloader, I get the error message. What am I supposed to do?
I also have tried older Fastboot ROMs, although they were all MiUI 11. Should I try fastbooting into a MiUI 10 ROM and then get OTA to do everything else? If this is the case, which specific version of MiUI 10 ROM should I flash? I can't remember which version my phone came with. My model number M1901F7S. And also, I've never used Magisk. I didn't really care if I wanted to root or not. Derpfest passed Safetynet pretty nicely. But now I do not wish to root. I don't want Magisk or anything else, I want to secure the phone just as it was before.
EDIT : Turns out that Find Device (from both Google and Xiaomi) are actually working, just in a less effective scale than what I previously used to have (before getting the custom ROM). But yet, can I bring my phone back to the locked bootloader state? I want to secure it completely, just like how it was when it came out of the box. I also cannot install apps like Netflix. I would really like to know how to relock my bootloader.
EDIT 2: I've fixed it. Indeed, I had to flash a stock MiUI 10 ROM. Version 10.0.2 and whatever number ahead worked for me and gave me no problems, and then I simply updated to MiUI 11 using OTA Updates.
However, I do not recommend using MiFlash tool, and instead recommend pasting the ROM files into your platform_tools folder and then running flash_all_lock/flash_all. MiFlash may sometimes glitch and cause problems.
Dunno if this a taboo subject but I have a locked Huawei P Smart Pro 2020 version (no dedicated forum?). It's a work phone, guy got fired and left phone locked and we want to give it to another employee, so no funny business. It's had hard reset done on it but the FRP has kicked in and is asking for PIN or Google account, both unknown obviously. Is it possible to do a proper factory reset using a PC and/or OTG cable and some software at all, or is it a bin job?
Tried just about every BS method on the web and none have worked!
Re-flash phone's Stock ROM.
I was thinking along those lines. Do I need HiSuite or whatever it's called to do that? Apologies for questions. Only a novice at this but it's the Huawei bit I'm new to really!
Look inside here:
How to Flash Huawei Stock Firmware – All Methods

Here we go again, sorry!
I've downloaded the firmware and unzipped it and there are now 3 folders named
update_sd_base
update_sd_cust_STK-L21UDV_hw_eea
update_sd_preload_STK-L21UDV_hw_eea_R1
Each of them has an UPDATE.APP file in them. I copied the one from the top folder to the microSD and did the vol up, vol down + power button thing and nuffink the phone just boots normally to the language selection page. Going to the Huawei recovery and trying to update from there just gives an error. Did I copy the wrong file, or should it be all 3? None of the other methods will work due to the phone being locked.
I don't suppose all I need to defeat is the PIN unlock as I could then get into the settings and remove the google account?
If I had any hair I'd have torn it all out by now!
Can't guide you because I never was in need to re-flash a Stock ROM on a Huawei device.
I've probably spent a good 12 hours on it now and no free methods work. The phone insists on being unlocked before reading any files.
As it is not my device I'm throwing in the towel. If it were mine it'd have had a hammer through it by now!
hi, i updated my phone to MIUI 13.0.3 android 12 and i've noticed a bug that made all the apps that are using the camera like instagram and snapchat take blurry pictures like an effect getting applied to the pictures taken by those apps (everything normal in my stock camera app) so i decided to use MiFlash tool to flash the previous android version on my phone but i bricked my phone instead i flashed a global rom while my phone is the chinese market version and accidently checked the ClearData+lock Device check box in MiFlash. the tool flashed the rom successfully but when the phone restarted it showed me a message saying that this rom cannot be installed on this device in recovery mode i couldn't do anything after cuz the bootloader got locked too T i tried everything to unlock it (mtk Client - bootloader unlocker+ adb fastboot + Xiaomi Unlock app ...). please help me is there any way i can fix my phone and what is the righ Rom to flash on my phone (Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G China (21091116C - Pissarro). thnx
friend I'm not a star I tell you how things are 1) you can't go back with another Rom only china 2) anti-roll-back 3) MiCloud you have to disable it you can try MiflashV2 there is also to unlock the bootloader it does everything even the firmware remember if the firmware does not start. important not only china also not china for updates remember first you do the factory reset put google account do not update any app except google drive backup with drive if it has arrived update it is better by setting the time instead of downloading the package the problem is when the update occurs it fails to close all active apps and then there is MiCloud that blocks. Best wishes and good luck and that I have little time for me too much trouble here in Europe.

currently my phone is stuck at the logo and after seconds it loads Fastboot automatically i cant access the phone os to do anything i used the xiaomi bootloader unlocker app that works online but it didnt work . the local cell phone service shops told that they have to open the phones back case to fix it ... i dont want that i've just bought the phone didnt even use it for a whole month
they don't have to open it they use licensed or dongle software (USB type) currently I use unlocktoll.net but if the phone is under warranty and you haven't removed the bootloader before it is better for you. It is possible that others have the same problem as you. Good luck

Rule number 1 for Xiaomi never flash anything on Mediatek devices, it will fail. If messed up, no way back as Xiaomi locks the devices for autorized service providers or local Xiaomi branches only. If you want to play with Xiaomi custom roms/development/etc. related only buy Snapdragon based devices.
I i.e. learned it the hard way, when this all started with the Redmi Note 8 Pro, I bricked it by flashing twrp in Android 11 and Xiaomi didn't want to repair it, so I had to pay some russian guy to fix it via Teamviewer with a modified unlock tool which was able to answer the unlock requests by pasting the answer manually from a generator. It's not like I messed up at a point, it's just that Mediatek devices easily fall in a unrecoverable state. In my term it was the combination of Android version and twrp. You will note there is no Mediatek support on xda and even when your device is named like a Snapdragon version, your device is offtopic here, because trying anything on it beyond unlocking the bootloader is harakiri
how to unlock my bricked Redmi Note 11 Pro 5g (Chinaissarro) Bootloader
Congratulation. Brick without unlocked BL :/
my opinion: you are done....
Some Xiaomi devices have pins on motherboard to
switch EDL, but i dont know with this device.
Try complaint and say something like: "my phone was upgraded and then i see only logo"

I did the same with my device. You can fix it using the MTK tools guide. Its lengthy but easy.

rule #1 with Xiaomi - bootloader is unlocked
I tried to flash Global ROM to Chinese Redmi Note 11E Pro 5G, but when flashing unintentionally ticked "flash and lock" option. Now my phone is stuck in Fastboot mode, and it doesn't allow me to neither flash other ROMs nor unlock using MiFlashUnlock.
I searched how to fix this in Internet, but unfortunately didn't find any solution - every option requires me to unlock bootloader with a functioning phone, but unfortunately that seems not possible in my case.
Is my phone bricked?
Any way to bring it back to life?
Basriy, if you are going to use this route, could you please report whether it was a success?

I would love to. In fact, I have contacted that guy from Telegram and I genuinely believe he is capable of solving my issue. The problem is I couldn't make a payment to his account to finish his job because of financial restrictions at place.
So I think I have a fancy looking brick now.
i have the same problem , on my Note 11E pro , stuck on fastboot , any luck ?

The guys who repair phones in my town found to be able to fix this kind of a problem as well, but that required physically opening the phone and doing some programming.
And I am still waiting to get help from them. 3 months have passed. Pinged them ~20 times. Each time there's either no answer or a single Yes, but when I give them the connection details, they go completely silent.
