Tried various possible solutions and still can't get past the Google logo. Installed adb and Samsung driver but when executing commands such as "abd remount" or "adb push file.zip \sdcard\" in cmd I get an error saying "device not found".
Does anyone know how I could resolve this issue?
I tried clearing the cache and wiping the data from the phone, and even heating the phone with a hair dryer. I'd very much appreciate any help.
looks like you still be able to get in reovery ? if so , then nothing you should worry , just flash a new ROM
Do you mean like a boot image or a recovery image?
If so then you need to put phone in fastboot mode, hold volume up and power til it comes up on screen, then on command prompt on your computer type in fastboot flash recovery xxxxxxx.img (xxxxx is the name of the file like cwm5.0.2.0.img or whatever)
That should give you a working recovery to flash roms from.
Is your boot loader unlocked?
If you wanna mount then just go to mounts and storage and mount USB storage and it will show up on your computer!

Thanks for your reply, seems to be hanging on waiting for device. Fastboot appears to be locked and it just hangs on "waiting for device" when I enter the command fastboot oem unlock... Not sure where to go from here.

Hmmm try going to cmd prompt and typing in adb devices, if you get nothing then your adb isn't set up properly and you need to go into setting and change the path on your computer.
I know the details are sketchy but gimme a min and I will find you a link

Find the Android sdk folder in your computer, move it to the root of C.
I don't think adb is where this guide says it is, there is a read me in the folder where it was saying it has moved to the platform tools folder.
So anyway find the path to the file and put it where the guide says and you should be on the ball.
Forget adb. You need to use fastboot.
Open a command prompt in the directory with fastboot or cd into it.
Put phone in fastboot mode.
On the command prompt type fastboot devices.
You will see your serial number. If you don't recheck and make sure you did everything. Sdk PDA drivers if need be etc.
Fastboot flash recovery custom recovery img name.img
Boot into recovery
Mounts and storage.
Mount SD card
Put a rom for you device on there.
Unmount
Wipe everything but sdcard from recovery.
Flash the rom by going to install zip from SD card......
Okay still stuck trying to connect to my phone. I haven't been able to get my serial number show when typing fastboot devices in cmd. adb is set up and seems to be working but the list of devices is blank when I type in adb devices. The phone was put into fastboot mode both times. I get <waiting for device> when I try
fastboot flash recovery clockwork-5.0.2-crespo.img
I think the bootloader may be locked as it does say LOCKED under lock state, which is probably the reason why I can't get the recovery image to work. I couldn't install PDANet as it wanted to connect to my phone while in debugging mode at the end of the installation. Would it be possible that fastboot oem unlock won't work with without having PDANet installed? I'd really appreciate any further help on this topic.
You need the drivers.

I have the Google USB driver package installed from SDK Manager. I had tried to install some other Samsung driver found on another post but it wouldn't install.
Turns out drivers weren't fully installed, managed to get PDANet installed and could connect to the phone with fastboot devices. Serial number was displayed in cmd. Only problems lies with unlocking the bootloader. fastboot oem unlock fails giving an error: too many links. Anyone have a solution to this?

Did you try booting into bootloader in the first place? Volume up+Power
Then you can use fastboot. Forget PDAnet. Just install SDK and ADB

Yeah I was in bootloader at the time, but I noticed that the Lock-State said locked. So I figured I must first use fastboot oem unlock. If I was to try flash with a stock recovery image would I still need to unlock the bootloader? Like I said I was able to use fastboot devices and get my phones serial number to show up, so I think SDK and ADB is properly installed, path set correctly etc.

I don't think you need to unlock the boot loader to flash a recovery image.
I may be wrong but I remember someone saying that once. I had mine unlocked before I had the chance to try it out. What happens when you type in fastboot oem unlock?

Pretty much straight away it fails and says something about "too many links".

Thanks for your reply, I followed the steps just now and got the exact same error. Before I was trying fastboot oem unlock while in platform-tools but this time I had downloaded the nexussrootICS.zip file, and extracted it to the root of C. I tried fastboot devices and my serial shows up and after fastboot oem unlock I get "status read failed: too many links."
The only difference I seem to have is that in my device manager I have Android Device > ADB Interface, as opposed to SAMSUNG Android Device > ADB Interface.
Not a big difference but that's all I can think of.
the same issue for me. is there any working solution for that?
I recently had success in recovering from this issue.

Or you could rename this thread to 'How to flash RUU zip for X920D'
Does this include stock recovery?
So why do we have 2 threads .. ?? Just confused
Also when I tried fixing the zip, I didnt see any boot image in it.. can someone who has restored confirm that their kernel also actually reverted ?

you dont have to fix the zip file. let the internal RUU flash everything for you including the boot image. as i said never try to fix the zip file even though it saying its corrupted. only RUU will can open the zip file properly. this guide is a step by step procedure. alright? i confirm that this is working. this where the steps i used to revert my butterfly back to stock.

Agreed on that , whats baffling me is that boot image doesnt come up in the zip listing at all ... anyways, I am not in need of this , was just clarifying for others

Yes this will revert your butterfly back to stock. and relock your bootloader
I guess this is a sort of side question, but is this the latest current software available for the X920D or is there an OTA available?
EDIT: Also what languages are available in this RUU?

4-Type in cd c:\adb then click enter
5-Type in "adb devices" it will show the connected devices it should be bunch of numbers
6-If you can't see them it means adb drivers for your device are not installed then install with adb installer
7- Disconnect your oppo f1 and put your phone in fastboot mode(press and hold vol+ and power button} u will see fastboot screen on phone then connect via usb then let the system install bootloader driver....proceed below
7-Then finally Command in fastboot for our device.
Put twrp recovery image(rename as twrp) in the same folder where adb is present then tick 'oem unlock' on developer option settings in the device before you continue.
Don't proceed here unless you flash "magictricks.zip" through stock recovery.
Starting Boot loader unlock and custom recovery steps:

Hi
sorry about my poor English.
I am sure that I flashed magictricks.zip and ticked "OEM unlock"
and the phone is in fastboot mode.
And I typed in "fastboot oem unlock", it showed "Okay, finished",
then I typed in "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img", it also showed "Okay, finished".
Then nothing happen, my phone is still with stock recovery, and my data is stilled there, can someone give me a help?
I attached my cmd picture.
Thank you!
^^ I've read from other thread that right after you flashed the TWRP recovery image, you must start-up the phone in TWRP recovery first before eventually booting to Android.
I haven't unlock my phone yet though but I will once I see some custom ROMs available.

All your steps are perfectly right but once u flash the recovery disconnect the phone and switch off from the fastboot then u should boot the twrp recovery first otherwise system will reflash the stock recovery...
Do the recovery flash again and boot to twrp first...
It is not necessary that oem unlock will wipe your data so no worry.
Me too I'm waiting for available alternative roms to install twrp recovery ....I just flashed magictrick and it said that I have update the build.... Thanks sure it will be functional....

Use root app delete from playstore or manually remove .apk file along with .odex file...

Hello,
I have MIX 3 Chinese version, unlocked bootloader, flashed latest global. Fine
For security purposes, tried to lock bootloader with fastboot - I knew it may be risky- now the device is in Mi recovery 3, refused to reboot even after erase data.
How to bring it back to life.
Thanks
Use the XiaoMiTool V2.
Google it
Can you enter fastboot mode?, If yes use mi flash and flash original chinese rom.

Yes I can enter fastboot. Even I check bootloader status now locked.
Could you refer a link where all the process is explained? I am not conversant with mi flash.
visit https://www.xiaomitool.com/V2/ and good luck

Fastboot is fairly simple. Download the latest Chinese from from miui.com, unzip it, connect your device in fastboot mode, and run the flash_all.bat file. It will take a while and the command prompt window will close when it is finished and your device will reboot.

I am downloading the ROM.
Please can provide step by step instructions?
My understanding is to:
1. copy the rom in minimal fastboot directory
2. unzip all files in that same directory (or should I create new one?)
3. Execute the command below:
fastboot flash_all.bat
By the way, can I use fastboot with locked bootloader?
Thanks again

If you have ADB installed system wide, then it doesn't matter where you unzip the full image to. The best way to have ADB installed system wide is through this method.
You don't need to type anything. Just open the folder the ROM was decompressed in, right click the flash_all.bat, and run it as administrator with your device connected in fastboot mode. It will literally do everything else.

Did you install ADB 1.4.3 from the thread linked to? Do you have your device connected to a USB 3 port or USB 2 port? Are you using the cable that came with your device to flash it? Were you booted into the bootloader when trying to flash?
Edit: Read that post wrong. You need to download the fastboot version. You can't flash the TWRP image using fastboot.

Yes I did all that.
I am getting error: Erase is not allowed in lock state.
Any workaround please?

Won't be possible with the Mi unlock software as the phones been wiped - no account, no OEM allowed ticked etc.
in that case, your only hope is: sending it back to china
where did you buy it?

In UK. Gray import. I really don't understand why a manufacturer should let this be possible. Why not just make it unlockable with global rom? This will avoid such unwanted situation for everybody. Pissed off by Xiaomi
Hi
I can't flash my redmi note 7 pro.
Bootloader is unlocked: I did the procedure, there is the unlocked logo at boot, and Dev options says "OEM unlock: device already unlocked".
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!!

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!

OK, I've found 2 options:
This one here on XDA:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-7-pro/how-to/miui-11-public-beta-violet-t3973921
(dowloading the "Fastboot ROM V11.0.6.0")
But it is 11.0.6.0 while my phone is under 11.0.4.0: is this a problem?
This other one:
Note 7 Europe V11.0.4.0.PFGEUXM at: https://www.leakite.com/xiaomi-redmi-note-7-pro-firmware-fastboot-recovery-rom/
It's not exactly the same code (PFGEUXM instead of PFGMIXM), I don't know if it makes any difference?
Sorry for keeping asking question, but I'd better be safe since I am very new to this kind of things...
and thanks a lot for your help and patience.

HI again
it still won't flash no matter what.
I'll deal with it
the reason I wanted to flash was essentially to remove all non necessarry stuff, which I did by following the "remove bloatware" thread.
thanks 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 )
- 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.

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..
