Partially bricked Mi4c mi-globe 7.2.9

Good day gents and ladies
Well let me start from the beginning.
I'm was using mi-globe 6.12.22
Last week Friday evening downloaded 7.2.9 mi-globe,read around the mi-globe forum.Didn't see anything funny so flashed via twrp on Saturday morning.Hmmmmmmmm this is when all my problems started.
Basically what I should of done is download 7.2.9,new 3.0.3 twrp for norgat,go into recovery flash new recovery, restart recovery,flash 7.2.9 and then have happy days.But it wasn't to be and now I'm basically sitting with a useless mi4c device.
The device works but warms up and I only get about 4 hours battery life.
If I try boot into recovery I just get black screen.
If I connect device to PC it is not recognized, have tried 3 x different laptop/PC's and different cables.
So fastboot,mi-flash,mi-unlock are all not possible as device is not recognized.
I have been trying different solutions without any success.
I think if it would be possible to root device directly without PC then maybe it will be possible to get flashfire working and I can flash new norgat recovery?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated?
NB.I have tried loading Qualcomm drivers ,google drivers etc etc.no luck can't connect my device too PC,either get device not recognized or the PC doesn't even see the device.Enable USB debugging etc etc nothing works.Been fiddling for 4 days!!!!!!!
Tried to root with kingoroot,framaroot directly on device etc nothing works?
Please help,else device is a nice piece of plastic that holds paper down on my table.lol

Is usb charging via pc working and have you tried miui updater? , This seems weird state you have ... If none working might be tried deep flash cable flashing ... Or go to nearest service center. Hope that help. Best luck.

Hi,yes USB chargers device via PC but that's all.
How does one deep flash,could you post link please?
I bought the device in China about 18 months ago,Xiaomi never sold mi4c in my country so doubt they could help me locally.
Seems I have soft bricked the device?Tried every thing no solution.
If it would possible to root without USB cable I could maybe try flash new twrp via flash fire?Then could wipe all and try start again?

You havent answered the miui updater part, have you tried flash miui rom.zip, using miui updater apps ?
Does fastboot mode boot on your phone ? i mean the bunny sceen showed up ?
For dfc here the link http://xiaomitips.com/guide/miui-deep-flash-engineering-cable-solution-to-non-edl-device/
Please take dfc as last resort. And do research more on this... Do with your own risk. Good luck

Hi,
Yes sorry I have tried updater, I download rom start updater it starts but after about 2 minutes stops and phones shuts down.
I then have to restart phone with long press of power button. It restarts but nothing has changed.
Wrt fastboot it goes into fastboot but this is useless cause no Pc can see my device and if it sees it it sees unknown device, spent countless hours trying different things without any success.
Seems have soft bricked the device, phone works but gets hot and battery life maybe 4 hours if I'm lucky?
Not sure what more today?

Before this has your pc able to use the miflash ? Try to follow this guide to setup it correctly http://en.miui.com/thread-136188-1-1.html ... I follow this guide and the adb n fastboot even works on an old pentium 4, 512mb ram, win xp laptop.
Ps: I think, its only a matter of incorrect driver setup on your side, best luck.

Fastboot not working

Hi everyone,
after a whole day spent try to fix my oneplus 6, now the roblem is that the fastboot is not working anymore. it gets stuck at the starting point with the oneplus logo and the writing Fastboot Mode.
Just to explain better, i rooted my phone but, trying to fix an audio problem, i did something wrong (probavly wiping all datas with twrp) and the phone got stuck at the Fastboot mode (opposite problem that i have now). After i fixed this (flashing manually every partitions) the phone is working again, but i realised that, by mistake, i used the oxygen 9.0.11 for oneplus 6T. So i tried to go to the Fastboot Mode but it gets stuck at that point. I also see that the phone is not rooted anymore.
I installed again Adb and fastboot but it doesn't fix the problem.
Just to give other random informations, the boot loader is still unlocked and i can't lock it.
As you can see i'm totally not an expert. I just wanted to root my oneplus 6 to increase the volume of the headphones.
Anyone that can help me?
Thanks

Try: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/guide-mega-unbrick-guide-hard-bricked-t3796051
The idea is to boot it in download mode. You'll need the Qualcomm drivers, msm download tool, and oos full rom. Run the tool as administrator.

Fastboot require Android SDK(Software Development Kit) and different USB drivers for windows computer may be that's the reason why your Fastboot is not working.

[HELP] Bricked Oneplus 6 - Qualcomm CrashDump - already tried everything

Hi everyone!
Well guys, sorry to bring this subject on thread again (because this forum has a lot of guides to solve this problem).
But I'm without hope with my phone at this moment.
Let me tell you guys my sad story...
I have an Oneplus 6 since december 2018, and never, NEVER, tried to use any modification on my phone.
I am from Brazil (so sorry for my bad english =] ), and here we CANNOT use Oneplus Support services (I've tried but only received the response "sorry I cannot help you on your country"), so because of this, I've decided to never apply any modification to avoid problems.
This week after a simple reboot my OP6 started with "Qualcomm CrashDump" error and my despair begins.
I'm not able to enter on Fastboot Mode. When I try, the systems attempt to boot (the fastboot mode logo appears) and fall down into crash again.
I'm not able to enter on Recovery Mode either. This method shows nothing, only black screen and after some time the crash screen comes again.
I do not have Bootloader unlocked too.
Any suggestion to use TWRP via fastboot.exe or ADB are useless, because I cant make the connection. At least I think that is impossible because the 'adb devices' command does not find the device.
I followed a lot of guides from XDA to solve my problem, including the Mega Unbrick Thread.
I already downloaded at least 8 different versions of msmdownloadtool in consecutive attempts of unbrick my phone. Nothing really helps.
The most weird situation is that msmDownlodTool can finish the proccess with success. The driver installation is working... everything seens OK using the tool but my phone does not revive
Someone have a suggestion for me?
Any suggestion, tool or alternative method is welcome in my actual situation.
Sorry if I posted at wrong local, just tell me and I can fix if necessary.
Thanks in advance to all of you guys.

Hi!
Thanks for your reply, but I think you do not read my entire post
As I said, i've already tried at least 8 different versions of msmDownloadTool.
If you have any other suggestion, I'll appreciate.

so you can't boot into fastbootmode anymore?
Had the same problem once before and solved it by flashing the correct twrp by fastboot

Yes, I am unable to enter into Fastboot Mode.
When I try, the logo saying "fastboot" appears, but after 4 seconds, the systems stucks on CrashDump error screen again.
That way my PC cannot find my phone with ADB or FASTBOOT commands.
The only tool that works is msmDownloadTool, but even with a success run with that tool, my system does not start and stills under CrashDump error.
I was thinking if exists some version of msmDownloadTool that justs restore the fastboot and unlock bootloader with brute force.
Thats my last hope

Source is a videotutorial. google oneplus 6 hardbrick and click the video of Max Lee
(it worked for me)
the download takes an awful lot of time
first get your phone into qualcomm download mode by holding down volume up + power button and plug your device in your PC.
(first unzip the hardbrick zip folder) then the oneplus 6 folder and than the .exe file and click 'start' if it detects your phone.
That is flashing every chip and Hydrogen OS 5.whatever.3 but that is not important. Your phone should boot and than you can install Oxygen OS with android 10(thats the other zip folder) using the local upgrade feature.
(make sure to enable google play services after upgrade from hydrogen OS)
Hope it will work for you too if you haven't tried it already.

Redmi note 6 pro self-bricked overnight - EDL flashing fails

Hey guys
I'll just let you know first up, this is the second time I've had this issue with this particular phone being hard-bricked, but this time I can't seem to fix it.
It doesn't turn on, can't be hard-reset, can't go to recovery/fastboot, only EDL mode via test points. Last time (April 2019) it also happened overnight, but I was able to restore it to proper function by EDL flashing it using QFIL and a modified programmer (prog_emmc_firehose_Sdm660_ddr.mbn). The rom I flashed back then was the most recent at the time, Redmi Note 6 Pro Global V10.3.2.0.
This time was a bit different in that I was actually able to hard-reset it at first (it vibrated and seemed to boot), but it then got stuck on the mi-logo during startup. I wasn't able to get it into recovery, but the fastboot screen came on ok. However, the phone didn't register on the pc and I wasn't able to actually send any fastboot commands to the phone, nor flash roms. I don't think fastboot was actually working which might be pointing to chip issues... Unfortunately...
After a few attempts at hard-resetting and failing recovery, I think the battery actually ran flat. Now it is dead-dead. Doesn't react at all, doesn't do anything, just like back in April last year. When I plug it in to my pc it delays for about 10 seconds and then shows up as if it's in EDL mode (Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008) but it's not really flashable - it doesn't react to QFIL correctly.
I then pulled the phone apart, shorted the EDL points and got it into 9008 mode immediately after plugging in the usb cable, no 10 sec delay doing it this way. However, when trying to flash the phone now it fails and reports a generic 'Firehose FHLoader error'... Please see log attached in this google drive link: drive.google[dot]com/file/d/1nj_0f95qLnLHqIgTEODmilY9ObmAkowz/view
Apologies for the link - I don't have 10 posts yet...
The most recent miui rom for the phone now is "tulip_global_images_V11.0.4.0.PEKMIXM_20200514.0000.00_9.0_global" and that's the one I primarily tried flashing. I also tried the one I had success with last year (fearing though it might re-brick due to the roll-back protection) but that didn't work either, same error. I also tried flashing using different USB cables, all high quality, but the error remains. I also tried it using a laptop, just to rule out windows issues. I've also tried the tips for resolving QFIL errors mentioned on the hovatek forum: forum.hovatek[dot]com/thread-30141.html but with no luck there either.
Have you guys got any ideas how I might proceed? Any tips I could try?
I am kind of resigned to this perhaps being a hardware issue, perhaps this particular chip has failed and that is why not even EDL mode is working properly. But I just wanted to ask the community if you had any ideas. If not, then it's not an expensive phone. However, I would love fixing it if I could, my wife loves it...

I suggest to first short the pins then open the flash tool and try to flash the factory rom. The programmer file will be inside the extracted rom directory, select that and proceed. If it does not work try installing Qualcomm driver and retry .

I'm sorry for re-opening an old thread, but I'm in a really similar situation.
My Redmi self-bricked, and I don't have any ideas since I have already tried a flash in ELD mode but the Flash Tool says that it's not able to receive the hello packet from the phone.
Have you been able to solve the issue in some ways?
Ps. Here's my post, in case you need further informations

SOLVED Bricked Phone

So I have 10 years of experience of rooting phones and flashing roms etc and I think this is the first time I really bricked my phone and until now did not find i solution my self.
So how got it bricked: I was on my work, in a bit of a hurry and wanted to update my phone (dirty flash) through TWRP but the installation hanged at the last 1% or such. I let it sit for 30 min. still hangs so decided to abort and do a clean flash but again the update hangs (maybe bad download?) but along the way (probably because I was at work and didn't take the time) I think I ****ed up switching partitions or something and now I have no OS installed on my.
I can boot in to Fastboot mode, TWRP EDL mode and such
But I can't flash an new OS through TWRP because it says the following: Unable to find Partition for path '/system_root' (will post screenshot when I get home from work )
I tried MSM tool but until now I could not get the tool to see my Phone so now I am calling for the help of the XDA Community!
So do you guys have any suggestions wich wil unbrick my phone?

Try running msm from different port on your pc. Preferably a 2.0 usb if you have. Many times makes a difference. Also make sure your adb drivers are updated to latest. Many threads around talk about it.

Extracted boot file from original oneplus rom, flashed that with fastboot and like magic my problem was solved
