unable to root redmi 2 prime 7.5.2.0 lollipop - Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers

recently i got an update from redmi about a new software with lollipop so i happily updated my phone from kitkat to lollipop (miui 7.5.2.0) but after updating i was unable to root my device.
i searched many places even i used this software to root "en.miui.com/thread-223314-1-1.html "
but i failed because what happens is after rebooting the mi logo shows up and even after 30 mins there is no progress. so it seems like bootloop but basically this is no bootloop as when i take out my battery and then reinsert it and restart it phone it starts and works fine. but i want to root it
please some senior expert or any developers kindly help me

Flash Custom Recovery Like TWRP..
en.miui.com/thread-228118-1-1.html
Then reboot into recovery and flash UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip from official site..
download.chainfire.eu/696/supersu/
Work for me..Hope work for you also..

Facing the same problem but still don't get any solution

Same here. I installed the MIUI8 Global Developer ROM and lost the TWRP recovery. The Phone is rooted but not able to re-install TWRP by any means. :/
I heard that Flashing the Fastboot ROM of the smartphone and reverting to MIUI Kitkat is helpful. I am downloading the MIUI 7 Kitkat Fastboot ROM.
Will inform you about the results!

CONFIRMED! If your Redmi is not rooting, then Revert to the MIUI 7 ROM. Flash the MIUI7 Kitkat ROM via Fastboot and then try to Root it. Everything will be fine. I Tried this and it worked.

First I rooted my phone with kingo Root.
Than I flashed CWM chinese version.

I don't have any rom so I download one but it was in chinese, flashed it to my gionee. than after rooting,,
I flashed the CWM, same I flashed weeks ago
Here my problem started :crying:
The CWM is not starting. I used recoery tool to boot into recovery after boot up it shows black screen. I used every method holding Vol+ and power button but the same result.
than I tired to get back to my stock recovery but it does the same.
flashed many times both recoveries but didn't worked.
I searched a lot and find a TWRP. I flashed it and wow it worked Finally I can boot into recoery mode.
Now I find the Nandroid backup of indian version. I made it a zip and flashed it through twrp.
My phone is back to indian version but its slow, not too much but its slow; camera, gallery and other apps take some time to open. I can't make or rcv phone calls. Now what i did is download the update form System update.
Now i got kitkat rom.zip but twrp failed to install it.
Some one on the internet was saying that its the problem with my Kernel. I have the latest kernel so CWM won't work cuz it uses old kernel and display drivers.
My
android version is 4.2.2
Kernel version is 3.4.0-svn2155
I also got TWRP for lolipop,

Hello my friend, please help me.
I am trying to flash stock inidan rom 4.2 but.. I installed all CWM for E7 found on the internet and I am getting black screen. I managed to Install TWRP but TWRP cannot flash the rom that I need to flash. I flashed a chinese 4.2 but is piece of garbage..
gngc-download-tool said that the com port is closed.
I have windows 64 is this the problem causing gngc not working?
No its not, it is working on 64bit windows very well.
In TWRP factory reset and format system and data, than install
Chinese 4.2 ROM. After that boot it and try it again.
It should work!

Help
I just rooted my gionee elife e7. Flashed the chinese recovery which seemed to be the only one which would be compatible. But, while changing a few setting using pimp my rom, the software just stopped working. Errors keep showing up on the screen - "system.ui is not working", "android app is not working", I cannot even go the settings because "settings is not working". Third party apps still seem to work, so, whatsap and stuff continue to function. Doing a factory reset or flashing firmware again seem to be the only viable option.
But, when I try to load up the bootloader using the power and volume keys, it gets stuck on the screen showing the gionee logo and it reads 'fastboot mode' in the bottom left hand side corner. So,
a. can you offer any advice which may be useful ?
b. can you share the link from where you got a TWRP recovery which will work on the Elife ?
c. do you have any idea what exactly went wrong here ?
Any help you can provide will be appreciated because, it's my mausi's phone and I will have a very tough time explaining what really went down here.
Regards,

[Q] Blu Life Pure XL soft brick/bootloop. Need help.

I aware that this is E7 section, but I have problem after tried to flash stock rom of a E7 (maybe this is a stupid thing to do)
Blu life pure XL is a rebrand E7, I believe, that's why I use many custom rom of E7 for my pure XL. and after update it to KitKat (using E7 rom of course) It didn't recognize sim card, and I tried to find a way to downgrade it back to 4.2.2
Couldn't find US version stock rom so I went with Gionee E7 stock rom and it's stuck with bootloop state.
I tried some ways :
-Get in recovery mode and use ADB to sideload a Rom -> not works
-Tried to replace stock recovery with custom recovery with fastboot mode -> not works to, cmd keep saying <waiting for device> and nothing happened
The thing is that I stuck with stock recovery of this Rom and can't go any further in this situation.
Any suggestion? please help..
c'on guys, I'm noob and I really need help here, anyone lend me a hand?

Thanks for your reply, finally someone replied me.
But I don't care about KitKat or Lollipop anymore, I tried to flash stock rom of E7 for my phone and now it stuck with bootloop, tried several ways but haven't got it work again
God, already planed to buy a new phone, but
Finally 've got out of this situation. It kept bootlooping because my effort to downgrade it to 4.2.2 was completely failed. My last attempt was applying the kitkat update package through ADB sideload, and It's boot up again with KitKat .
Well, I've found the US stock rom for my phone and I want to try to downgrade it to 4.2.2 again, but if it falls through and stuck in bootloop state again, I don't think I can get it back to life with that update package because that package is for Indian rom.
Any suggestion to help me downgrade my phone? Please, guys, I'm novice and completely noob, I really need help.

How to unbrick my ZTE Axon 7 mini b2017g

Dear Seniors.
I am facing great hardship because my phone is stuck at boot logo.
No booting in recovery mode to flash another rom.
I did unlock bootloader of it by using tuliptool with success. After that i flashed custom rom in it. after reboot it is happening that.
Please suggest to recover it.
Did you flash twrp after unlocking? Did you make backup of stock ROM? Perhaps find a version of the factory firmware and flash that.
Dear I have no backup and i flashed TWRP recovery.......
It is to aware you that i did relock bootloader now my phone is working properly. but i am unable to enter recovery mode. !!!
Now my phone is running android 6.0.1 B02
But i am failed to root this rom uptill now due above mentioned problem.

I found software update notification but when i update an error accruing while update. (This update not compatible with this device"
In easy words......... my recovery.img has been corrupted. I have no idea to get rid of this situation.
I planned to unlock my Mini's bootloader this weekend. After reading this post, I decided to act later until the root cause has been figured out.

Several people myself included have been able to use tuliptool to successfully unlock and root the device.
mine is hard bricked too. but I think it is worse than the case listed on the op.
if you want to hard bricked these are the steps:
follow the procedure to install the Spanish ROM 6.1, than another android m b12, than finally the android seven......use tulip tool and install twpr fine, root ect. amazing ROM.......buuuuut......I lost my IMEI somewhere in this process, and the original FTM which had a small menu changes to another static one, without the menu.
I needed this menu to open the com port to fix the IMEI. than I had the brilliant idea to re-flash android M via twrp (without modifying the zip file to remove the recovery, something I knew so well from the older axon mini).
results:
-lost twpr because the stock ROM wrote over it,
-cannot boot the OS because I flashed android m but the phone had the aboot 7.
-i now have a brick
I need a genious to sujest something to bring it back to life........sh....t...sh...t.....sh...t
any chances I could inject aboot7 via ADB through my dead recovery which somehow the phone recognises? ADB shell still seems to be working
thanks

Bricked Mi A1

Managed to brick my A1. The only screen its able to go to is either fastbook, or recovery. And even then, doesn't always necessarily boot into recovery, have to plug into computer and go into command prompt (fastboot boot oreo_3.2.2_recovery.img) to get it into TWRP.
Currently can't seem to flash *any* roms, I have a stock rom ("tissot_100108_stock" cant remember where i got it from). Which successfully flashes, but then on reboot gets stuck on the Android One screen. Longest i have waited before giving up is an hour. Even when i flash this rom and reboot, i get a message on TWRP saying "No OS installed"
Tried doing this: [wont let me post link] (MiFlash) method and got an error, basically does not work.
Super frustrated, at my wits end, would just like to flash stock rom and sell this thing or let it sit in a drawer at this point. Thanks in advance.
same problem here...
I have the exact same issue and also came here for that to ask for help.
Xiaomi Mi A1 was running 8.1 OTA updated and then I tried to flash Lineage, but it did not work. I wiped my phone and now it can't install anything, not via TWRP nor with Mi Flash.
I hope we can find a solution.

hopefully! i posted on the xiaomi subreddit but no help. i was on 8.0 when i started this whole misadventure.
I got somewhere, I think.
I went into TWRP, switched from B to A booting. It then starts Android but gets stuck in the boot screen of Android one with the colored bar.
I then tried MiFlash again, going directly to the folder which containts the .bat files. It started flashing it finally.
I am back to a working system.
Let me know if it works for you.
you guys should try flashing the latest stock rom 8.1 July running the bat file of your choice located in the factory image through fastboot
the different custom recoveries and miflash are sometimes buggy
run the script directly on fastboot
