Realme C21Y HardBrick - It says USB Device is faulty but disappears after 2 seconds - I can't enter download mode - General Questions and Answers

I corrupted my phone's root/system/etc files and when I restarted it, it wouldn't turn on and got stuck on the realme logo. i hold my phone vol+ and - and power key and when the realme logo comes up, i release the power key, i think download mode opens, but it usb device is faulty for 1-2 seconds and disappears immediately, meanwhile in device manager it shows unknown device for 1-2 seconds and disappears. After 10-15 seconds there is a usb connection sound but nothing happens. I can send adb commands but I have to confirm the confirmation window but I cant.
Please help me, how can I fix it?

Does adb devices say "unauthorized"?
Are you sure that it's ADB and not fastboot or EDL that is appearing?
You can use usblog.exe to see what's popping up and down. Just run it.

Install Unisoc/Spreadtrum drivers and then see if your device is recognised as a SPD USB device under device manager and let me know here

Yes, I get the unauthorized message as below. If I can somehow authorize it, I will be able to enter fastboot mode and flash the stock rom.

Please try a different usb port on your computer.
Don't use USB 3.0 port.
If nothing works then either the phone's usb is malfunctioning or your PC.
Don't use USB extension to connect your phone, plug directly to your computer port.
Also update your PC drivers using driver booster free software and then set restart and try again

I updated with Driver Booster, no luck.
I only tried the front USB ports, do I need the back ones? There are 2 2.0 and 1 3.0 port on the front
The computer is new so I don't think it's defective, the phone is charging and I was using it before it went brick.

I also modified the boot file to install a new GSI and used the following guide.
Spoiler
First, you need to unlock fastbootd:
1. Download the stock ROM version 91: Download and extract the .pac file Link
2. Install the SPD research tool and drivers: GDrive
3. Open it
4. Click on the single gear icon
5. Select the .pac file of the stock rom
6. Wait until it loads
7. Click on the two gear icon
8. Find BOOT in the list
9. Right-click on the path next to it
10. Download here and select boot_r1.img
11. Click OK and then click the arrow icon
12. Turn off your phone
13. Press and hold Power + VolumeDown until you see the text "Downloading"
14. Release the buttons after seeing
15. Wait until you see the text "Passed"
16. Click on the Stop icon, disconnect your phone and turn it on

@leanord Can you help me?

The 0000/0002 is standard Linux goofiness when you enable USB gadget but you don't initialize anything or add any functions.
This often pops up during boot sequences. It means nothing. It does cause Windows to say "Invalid device".
The 22d9/2769 appears to be normal ADB and since you're getting "unauthorized" shows that everything is fine.
Are you in recovery or regular Android?
Stock recovery usually is ADB secure and you don't have the keys for it.

I don't fully understand your question, but I have the stock recovery, I didn't install TWRP, and I installed dotOS 5.2 as GSI. I think I corrupted the fastboot, download mode boot files in the root files. I will take it to the service center, but if you have a solution, you can write, I don't want to give money.

It's gone to stock recovery and you don't have keys.
You need to try buttons to get it into bootloader (fastboot). Or did they disable that?

It may have been disabled or because I corrupted system files.

Wanted? I came, to flash the phone, you do not need to press anything except the volume keys, the power button is only a catalyst, you need to hold it down until the screen goes out, and then just Keep the volume - and flash as usual, the main thing is to keep it immediately plugged into the PC with a ready-made flasher

What I have done:
1. The screen is off
2. I hold down the volume - and power button.
3. The phone vibrates and as soon as the realme logo appears, I plug the usb into the phone and release the power button.
4. The computer receives the message "USB Device not recognized, malfunctioning" and the unknown device is added to the device manager (It doesn't come anymore, I don't know what happened, I installed a lot of drivers.)
5. After 20 seconds, the USB connection sound is heard and the name of my phone is added to the "universal serial bus devices" section of the device manager.

Why are you doing it? You should sit in the flash driver, and not watch how the device is connected, Windows will not have time to see exactly what is connected until you start flashing

SP Flash Tool doesn't see my device so I can't flash it. If you mean Fastboot, I can't get into it.

By the way, that font that's showing up in my UsbLog is UGLY.
I readjusted things, you can download a new copy that is prettier.

Oh, this is a Unisoc.
I know a lot about Qualcomm, some about Mediatek and almost nothing about Unisoc.
Surely there is some way to get this into Unisoc ROM bootloader mode?
There are either test points or you can disable the eMMC?
If you could pull recovery and mod ro.adb.secure=0 you'd have recovery with ADB at least.

I'm sorry, I don't know that much. But if you tell me the steps how to do it, I can do it.

@leanord when installing GSI, I flashed boot_r1.img from your Realme C21Y GSI installation guide, did you disable fastboot or something?

[Q] [q] HELP ME PLEASE !IM STUCK!

HELP ME PLEASEEE
I tried rooting my phone by following the instruction
(Download the unrEVOked modified USB driver and expand it somewhere you will remember.
Turn off your phone, then boot it into the HBOOT menu by holding power and volume down.
On your phone, you will have to select HBOOT USB at that menu by pressing volume down four times, then power. Wait until the screen flashes through an “SD Checking” message before pressing buttons; otherwise, the phone will ignore keypresses.
Connect the phone to your Windows machine with a USB cable and wait for the phone to say HBOOT USB PLUG on screen.
Open Device Manager.
Click Start, then right click on Computer, then click Properties, then click Device Manager.
Under Other devices, you should now see the Android 1.0 device.
Right click on Android 1.0 and click Update Driver Software:
Click on Browse my computer for driver software.
Click on Browse and select the Android USB Driver folder on on your computer, click ok, then click next.
You should get a status bar indicating that the driver is installing. If you get any warnings, just click Ok.
Your driver should install.
Click Close and make sure Android Bootloader Interface is listed under Android Phone.)
But after i successfully update my driver from Android 1.0 to Android bootloader interface, i dont know what to do just now and i select fastboot from my phone. Im not sure whether my phone isit rooted?
Anyone help please :x
Now that you've connected the phone to your computer, the next step is to do the actual rooting.
If you have an Evo, check the stickies in the Evo forum for more details.

PC/cmd not detecting op6 in "fastboot device" command mode

I could not even find my device when i use fastboot devices command in fast boot mode. Because of this i could not flash twrp also.
I installed adb and drivers and connected the phone in all sorts of modes (usb debugged, usb undebugged, fastboot, system on, switch off mode).
When the phone is connected in switch off mode, i could see something like "usb device not found" message in pc. Tried changing desktop. But it's the same result.
Bootloader is unlocked and on stock open beta 4 pie.

I have noticed this as well,
My solution is to "install" the drivers every time I connect it in fastboot mode.
The reason why I put "" around install is, that I really don't install but I tell windows my devices is a fastboot device.
Open device manager
Right click your one plus device, most likely named Android with a yellow exclamation mark
Choose update driver software
Choose Browse my computer for driver software
Choose Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
Choose android
Choose bootloader device (or something similar)
Apply

Voila you can now use fastboot commands on your OP6

No green android when using flash or fastboot mode

Hi,
First of all the bootloader is already unlocked.
Two problems:
1. - I was trying to flash twrp.img on my mobile but I am not getting that green android to show up in my screen all I get a black screen with blue led light, I usually power off the mobile, hold volume up and then connect the USB cable to my mobile.
2. - Can't find mobile device while using flash or fastboot, my mobile Developer option and USB debugging are turn on, mobile drivers and adb-setup-1.4.3 are installed, I have access to my mobile on my PC , when I do the process of flashing or fastboot I turn off the mobile and I unplug USB cable from my mobile, I press the keys to do flash or fastboot (I don't see no green android just a led light turn on) and connect the USB cable, problem is my PC can't find the mobile device, I use adb function eg. adb devices or fastboot devices I get nothing no device no info.
Is this problem with Win 10?
Was my problem understood in 2. - ?

Most likely a drivers problem, Windows10 fails to tell you that it's not installed the drivers that you pressed the install button on. It also fails to assign the right drivers when you add the phone in flashmode/fatsboot.
You will need to add them manually.
Go into safe mode and use 'driver signing disabled', try adding the drivers again. Then plug in you phone in flashmode/fastboot, then look in the device manager for the phone and change it
Several people have reported success with Zdiag drivers

Thanks! Great Info.
I removed the drivers manually in device manager and then used Zadig, now in command mode I getting something.
Next I have to figure how root the phone, do I need to flash twrp.img ?
I have all this stuff and I got confused which one I need to do next:-
boot.img
boot-G8141-47.2.A.10.45-hideunlock-rooted.img
twrp.img
twrp-3.2.1-0-maple
xperifix.zip
ss_maple.zip

Mi unlock tool issue

Hi,
I have faced a problem trying to unlock my bootloader.
On the Mi unlock tool I have pressed the button "unlock". after one week the time required passed, but opening the app on the PC and connecting the phone in fastboot mode anything happens! You can see attached a capture of my PC screen with the phone connected in fastboot mode.
How I can fix it?
Thanks
Is this Windows? Does the OS see the device? (Check "My Computer".) Are the correct drivers installed?
If not, click the cog wheel and install driver, then reboot.

Yes, it is Windows. not in fastboot mode the computer see my phone. in fastboot mode no.on the unlock tool the refresh and unlock buttons seem to be frozen.
How I can install the driver? on the cogwheel I can see only this (picture attached)...
It is really strange, why one week ago everything was ok? same computer, same phone of course!
In my experience, it's normal to not have any button feedback when the device is in fastboot mode -- only long-press power button to shutdown.
Sorry, can't help you on the rest, never faced this myself.
This is what comes up on the cog in the version I have (just pressed check to install the "drive", before rebooting the phone into fastboot)...
It is really frustrating this.
Any piece of advice?
Hi. I know it might sound silly but have you tried a different USB port on your PC? Preferably a USB 2.0 port.
finally done!
mybe the cable not working I don't know why!
Thanks

Bricked: How can I fix my Phone?

So I recently changed phones, as one of my main hobbies is tinkering with Smartphones and their respective OS's , I decided to Unlock my Xiaomi Redmi 9A (My previous phone) and flashed Ubuntu Touch to it as it was stated as a supported device, using their prebuilt simple installer app seemed to work but midway through the install the installer crashed and the phone powered off, When I turned it I realised it was stuck in a Bootloop, I tried Power + Vol Up for Recovery, that didn't work and neither did Power + Vold Down for Fastboot i tried ADB to push a command to enter EDL (Qualcomm Emergency Download Mode) but that didn't work either. Does any body have any suggestions for how I could get this device running again?

Yea sure, try flashing with Sp Flash Tool
(Btw this device isn't a Qualcomm procesor so no EDL).
You can solve it with Sp Flash Tool
Needs:
- Pc/Laptop
- Usb Cable
- Miui Rom ( Choose your version : https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/dandelion/ )
- Mtk Bypass Tool + LibUsb : https://www.bypassfrpfiles.com/2021/02/mediatek-bypass-tool-mct/
( You have some steps to do here - see the website)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Flashing :
1. Download all the things I gived to you + drivers.
2. Extract and open Sp Flash Tool and MTK Bypass Tool ( Be sure to install the libusb driver)
3.Open MTK Bypass Tool and click on Bypass button.
4. Hold all the buttons from the phone ( or try power + vol up / down, if all doesn't work)
5. When holding the buttons, connect the phone to the pc, wait a few seconds until it finishes to bypass ( Wait ~2 seconds more after bypassing - holding the buttons) ( Hold buttons - connect phone --> PC with usb cable -- wait like 2 seconds after bypassing to work properly.)
6. Open Sp Flash Tool.
7. Select your download agent ( MTK_AllinOne) - from program folder
8. Select your rom in scatter file section ( to be more exactly, choose the mt6765...... File from the rom)
9. Be sure to check Sp Flash Tool Settings - check if u have selected your device port
10. Where it shows - *"Download Only*" ( you can use that, but for me worked Firmware upgrade) - NOT Format
11. Press download button from up
12. If you need help, here is my discord :
