[Discussion] Need Help in Unbricking redmi note 3 Snapdragon

Here is the short story. I followed the unofficial method of unlocking bootloader. I did that and managed to install twrp then i flashed CM14. However, it proved to be not working (Stuck at CM Logo). I also noticed that in TWRP it has an error which is E: Failed to mount /persist. So yeah, i revert back to MIUI and relock it. I managed to reflash to 7.1.8.0 global beta but the problem is there are so many bugs like No wifi detected and no sim data making it unusable to do any internet plus brightness isn't working.
So, this is the true problem came. I followed Raaj52's instruction and want to flash the latest Fastboot rom Developer (which is 6.7.29 global) but i got stuck with Unspecified error when i follow Raaj's instruction. When i do miflash and flash in EDL mode, it got stuck with Not enough storage is available to continue. Please help me, i have redmi phone just and want to use it again.
In addition, can someone please explain to me about:
1. Why E: Failed to mount /persist in TWRP happens?
2. Why Wifi cant detect any hotspot and sim card has no service at all?
3. Why do i have Unspecified error when flashing in Fastboot mode?
4. Why do i have Not storage is available to continue error in EDL mode?
Thank you and hope someone can help me.
PS: I use Miflash 20151028, Anz Folder, Unlocked Bootloader folder and Fastboot_edl folder as well as fastboot ROM downloaded. I also post similar thread in http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=433772&page=1&extra=#pid8058468 in hoping that someone can help me.
P.S: The Device codename is Kenzo (Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro Snapdragon Version) and here is the picture needed for you guys to help me figuring this out.

Hardbricked - System destroyed!

Hello!
I was disappointed about some missing features in MIUI ( unable to unlock by bluetooth by not Xiaomi devices, no reliable notification LED,.. ) so I decided to flash Android P ( I know, it´s beta, but it´s AOSP ) by using the Xiaomi Flash Tool. I left the button at 'clean and lock', because I don´t wanted to go back in the near future - and this was a big mistake! The tool shown after flashing 'successful', but since then the Mix2s shows 'system destroyed - push power button to switch off' on booting. I get access by fastboot, but the bootloader is now locked....
I´ve tried to get access by deepflash, but the problem is, that if I connect it to USB the phone switches on and shows the mentined message - again and again. I´m not able to switch it off, to get the connection by qualcomm drivers to USB. I tried to push and hold the power button very long, push all buttons together and so on...
Has anyone an advice or can tell me about testpoints of the Mix2s ( if it has? )

When in edl mode, only nop and sig tags can be recevied before authentication.
Thanks!

In this thread, some users speak about test points. There is a photo of it

Edit: Method for Mi Mix 2, maybe this can help you...

You should send it to customer servt

You can try to contact xiaomi support, they can grant you access to unlock the bootloader without adding an account... However, there were only one or two guys in miui forum who were successful with that, for all the others xiaomi said they can't allow it

What happens when you try to unlock your bootloader? And why cant you unlock it again?

Enter Fastboot and unlock your bootloader again by using xiaomi mi bootloader unlocking tool.

same problem when i've flashed the beta, i had to unlock the bootloader again and the phone boots

Flashing with MiFlash has the status the first line of the bat file

I have the Mi Mix 3 that has the Chinese ROM. I unlocked the bootloader and currently trying to flash the global ROM.
I downloaded the Mi Flash tool and the Global Fastboot ROM, but when I try to flash it, the status is always the first line of the BAT file (see screenshot)

Your answer right there. Mismatch device. I believe to go to global, you need to use twrp.

I see. I thought that, since the status was the first line of the ba file, it was not executing it properly.
However, a strange thing happened. After I rebooted the phone and entered again intro fastboot, it worked.
I guess it was some communication error maybe?
Anyway, if you have the same problem, try and do the following (I don't know which one was the actual sollution)
1. Add Android SDK to your environment variables (open a cmd window and enter adb. If it works, it is done properly)
2. Reboot into fastboot without hte phone being connected to the PC. Open MiFlash Tool, connect the device, hit "refresh"

i have the same problem with redmi note 5 pro
i have same isssue with redmi note 5 pro any one please help. my phone is bricked

After you extract the fastboot image place it in a single folder named for example "Rom" and put this folder to desktop. Then try to flash it again.

Try with another pc if you can. Did you also try to disconnect battery connector before flashing?

Have the same issue on my Mi note 3
I have the same issue
My wife just approved the update , then after update download and complete the phone asked for reboot , the phone always boot to mi recovery.
I did Wipe all data but the same, i am so upset. any way i hope for a fix

FIX the boot loop issue.
Well just to inform you that finally i have fixed my device,
Method can be found on youtube, warm and open the back cover , remove the flat of battery , short two test point while then connecting the USB-C cable , the PC finds qualcomm 9008 in device manager,
Then you release the short you made of the two test points , flash the rom via Mi Flash , when finished connect back the flat of the battery. power on and you done saving your phone.
This is the method , search : "Flash Xiaomi Mi Note 3 with locked boot, use TestPoint" in the youtube.
HTH,

I had mido for a couple of years but nothing like this has ever happened to me. Try flashing in EDL mode or maybe try charging it.
