Help please who can with the problem. I have a poco x3 pro phone, the bootloader is unlocked, there is an orange fox recovery. I recently installed miui pulse 13, I didn’t like it, I decided to go back to 12. I rebooted into recovery, cleared all partitions (as usual), pressed reboot recovery and the phone went into edl mode. When you try to install off firmware via mi flash, it gives an error: Cannot receive hello packet.
Has anyone experienced this, why did it happen?
I can’t get out of edl mode, I pressed different buttons, held it for a long time, nothing...
So: who ever told you to clear ALL(!) partitions? Thats not "usual" and a "puke bag" idea... try to let the battery run completly empty, maybe you are able to handle the device afterwards..

Current Status of my TF700:
-Boot looping with Asus "Inspiring Innovation - Persisten Perfection" logo. Approximately 5 seconds between reboots, with a vibrate every time it reboots.
-It says "Device is Unlocked" in the top left.
-Holding power for a long time (over 20s) will shut it off, and vibrate, but then it immediately vibrates again and resumes the bootloop.
-I cannot get it into the bootloader with Power + Vol Down. That combination does nothing.
-If I use the pinhole button, as long as I hold it, the screen remains blank. As soon as I release it again, the bootloop resumes immediately.
-It does not get to the second "shiny" Asus logo.
-It doesn't get far enough to recognize a new firmware file on the microSD card.
How I got to this point:
Stock ever since I bought it up until a few days ago. I decided it was time to root, unlock, install TWRP, and install CWM. I never got that far.
1. I unlocked first. I believe it was successful because it has said "Device is Unlocked" ever since.
2. I tried to root with the debugfs method. It reported it was successful, but despite several attempts, it was unsuccessful.
3. I tried using GooManager to install TWRP. It never worked.
4. I discovered that I wasn't running the latest Asus firmware. I then upgraded it. It ran successfully. (V10.6.1.14.10)
5. I tried rooting with Motochopper. It reported success. But it didn't work. I then discovered it wouldn't work with V10.6.1.14.10.
6. I then tried installing TWRP via fastboot. It reported success, but Power+VolDown didn't get me into TWRP. Nothing seemed to load TWRP. In case it's relevant, I was having trouble where Windows was saying there was a problem with the Bootloader Interface Driver, and after several reboots, I was able to get fastboot to reportedly load TWRP. It reported success, but I never saw TWRP.
7. I booted into Recovery, the latest version that said something to the effect of, "USB recovery loaded" or something, with 3 icons: RCK, Android, and Wipe Data. This is the only recovery I was ever able to see, by the way. I then selected "Wipe Data" hoping it would give me a new starting point.
Once it rebooted, it has been stuck in this bootloop. Have I royally screwed myself, or is there a way to recover?
Please ask any questions, I will answer them to the best of my ability. In the meantime, I will hope to run the power down on the tablet in the hopes it will make a difference.

Power+VolDown activates the bootloader menu - this is the screen with the 3 icons, where you can use fastboot. Since you needed to go there to install TWRP via fastboot, you should have known that Power+VolDown doesn't get you into TWRP - you'd have to press VolUp in the bootloader menu, to activate RCK.

Selecting "Wipe data" from the bootloader menu with a broken recovery is the best known way to brick a TF700. This can only be recovered via nvflash, which you can't use since you never got far enough to extract the required files from your tablet while it still worked. Your only option now is a new mainboard.
Well, crap. RCK never did anything except show a loading bar then reboot.
Thanks for the reply.
...from my phone...
Anyone know of a place that sells 64gb mainboards? Not finding anything thus far...
...from my phone...
in case anyone cares, I swapped the motherboard out with one from ebay, and it booted right up.
Please help!!
I decided I didn't want the lineage os I flashed a couple of months ago and wanted to go back to my old Lenovo os which I had a nandroid backup of ( my phone is a Lenovo k5). I opened twrp recovery and started the restoration proccess. However, Halfway through the proccess I get an error message that said *error:extracttarfork()proccess ended with error=255*.
This made my nervous and Instead of pressing the back option I pressed the reboot system, which is obviously wrong since the system wasn't fully Installed and the old one was deleted as part of the reboot process. So now I am stuck at the screen that says "lenovo" on it and the phone doesn't go any further. I can't open twrp recovery using the key combination ever since I flashed lineage and I can't boot into bootloader. Any computer that I connect to the phone won't be of any use since the phone won't be visible to the computer. Please tell me if you have any idea how to access the recovery page or how to make th key combination work again, or if you have another solution to solve this problem.
Hi there,
I am a newbie and hoping that someone could help to give me some clear pointers about options that i could take to rescue my phone - I hope its not bricked.
I was attempting to install LineageOS 16 on my Oppo R7s. This is my second attempt at installing a ROM - I did it a couple of weeks ago with Project Spectrum, and it worked, but Project Spectrum didn't impress me, so i wanted to try lineage OS instead).
I entered developer mode and enabled USB debugging
I downloaded the LineageOS zip to my SD card, as well as a Google Apps zip.
I downloaded the TWRP app on my phone just in case it was needed, however I've never used that app and not 100% sure how to use it.
I rebooted in recovery mode, and tried to install from the LineageOS zip file. It didn't start installing, I got some error message which I cannot recall... so I tried wiping the application data first, to see if that would help (maybe that was my mistake??)
I then went back to the install menu, and tried to install the Google Apps package first.... it started downloading, but then crashed and black screened.
Now, when I try to power on the phone, I get the oppo logo, and then it briefly goes back to the install screen for a second, with a message on the screen saying: "updating please wait, do not remove battery, do not co other operations" - but this only lasts for a second, then it crashes.
When I try to reboot into recovery mode (Power key +volume down), it does the same thing. I cannot get back to the white recovery menu.
Is there any way that I can rescue the situation and get back into recovery mode to try again? Or get back to a functioning USB connection so I can load a new ROM zip to try that instead?
When I plug it into the power, I get no indication that the phone is charging.
I'm worried the battery will go flat.
I have ADB installed on my computer, but I dont really know how to use it - the only command I know is "adb push" to load the roms onto the SD Card
Any advice on how to get access again would be greatly appreciated!
Hello,
A few days back, when I was using my phone (redmi note 6 pro tulip), the screen suddenly greyed out and started rebooting. Within a minute, the phone went to mi-recovery 3.0.
Now, no matter how I try to reboot the phone (from recovery or by hard buttons) , it boots directly into recovery. Even If I don't do anything, it just cycles through the grey screen, mi logo, and recovery.
More info:
- The phone is completely stock, original MIUI 11 ( android 9.0) firmware from OEM. No root access, no unlocked bootloader or anything else like that. Warranty period is over.
- I can access fastboot mode.
- usb debugging isn't on iirc.
- I tried force shut down by hard buttons and disconnecting the battery, but when rebooting again, nothing changes.
- I tried booting to safe mode but it just shows a black screen and a small safe mode logo in the bottom left.
- mi-recovery 3.0 only allows to wipe all data, which is unfeasible since I have alot of unbacked data that I can't lose.
What can I do now? I've heard that flashing by edl method from an authorized account can save data. And something about a chinese mi pcsuite version. Could anyone provide more information on these? Or any other way to solve the problem?
I want to recover data (photos, videos and docs) and revive my phone.
Thanks in advance

A lot of edl flashing articles on miui forum and mi community are 404 not found now. Please help!!
You solved? I'm with the exactly same problem and I found nothing specifically for this, plus, I tried wipe data already and it still doesn't work.
It maybe be button issue (the volume and power keys have gone bad probably). Remove the buttons from main board and try to boot into system.
I was facing the exact same problem.
And I discovered that it was caused because of the volume button that was kinda stuck, forcing the phone to enter recovery mode every time I tried to reboot it, as mentioned by @HumanBoy23.
After I got the volume buttons unstuck the phone booted normally.
Hey,
I have got Xiaomi POCO X3 PRO NFC 8/256GB, most probably have android 11 MIUI 12.5.5 global, in EU. Been using automatic updatese. Please note, that I haven't flashed any custom software. Have been using vanilla OS since release and been updating it with automatic updates.
Suddenly my phone has entered bootloop state and I am not able to take it out of it since.
Latest action I have taken just before the problem started is that I connected my phone to charger during the game ( PGR) , while it was at around 40% charge. After short moment it has frozen and restarted the phone. Since then it has been constantly bootlooping with POCO icon and resetting again, turning off the screen and back to POCO icon - it has been for over 2 hours already. It doesn't feel that my power button is stuck.
Still can operate power + vol buttons reliably. I can access Fastboot and MIUI Recovery Menu 5.0, where I have 4 options:
1. Reboot - back to bootloop
2. Wipe data - haven't tried it yet
3. Connect to MIAssistant - TIL it is supposedly dead service?
4. Safemode - it brings me back to bootloop again
Tried to take out SIM and microsd, to no avail. Haven't tried to wipe out data until I try other solutions, to restore it, as I have some 2FA on it, which would be a pain to recover.
I haven't learned before around flashing and recovery for the last few years (only I have done it around android 4, 5 and 6). I would like request assistance - how to approach resolving this problem?
Currently I am reading on fastboot, which I believe might help me here, by connecting it to PC.
EDIT: Got around this https://xiaomiflashtool.com/tutorial/use-xiaomi-flash-tool and stock rom https://xiaomistockrom.com/xiaomi-poco-x3-pro , I believe it might work
EDIT #2: At 20.11.2022. At around end of october this issue started repeating out of nowhere. And then suddenly stop,
Then the phone bricked. Sent for warranty and just got it back.
Turns out that motherboard died and was the cause.

Thanks, will follow this to make back up and in case it occurs again.
Managed to resolve this problem by draining up my battery due to constant restarts(obviously can't pull out battery). After that happened, connected my phone to normal charger, juiced it up to 10% and phone started just fine.
I have tried to recreate this problem, however it didn't occur again.
