Mi Flash Error Discussion - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Guides, News, & Discussion

Discussion on problems faced by Miflash tool.
*So when used for the first time I was able to unlock phone without any problem.
*But after that when I used it for second time to unbrick my phone I was constantly getting errors like not enough memory,some errors like x800000 blah blah...
*I almost went through every solutions mentioned in miui forum and XDA...But I was unable to get it working...
So if anyone faced any problem like that comment your problem below..
Aftef a lot of research I was able to find a solution for that..
Hopefully it will be shared with you all as soon as possible. I have to finish touching up some final things..
As soon as I finish the work I will be releasing alpha version..
Will update the thread when I release it

Waiting for the solution.

Hopefully I was able to make alpha version of the software...worked fine for me on fastboot mode..want some testers
Edit..was able to boot up successfully..once confirmed by some testers I will release stable one

I experienced that "Not enough memory" thing. What I did was I used the latest MiFlash tool (restarted my PC first).

Mi Flash & Nougat
Hi, if you want I'm ready to test your alpha version!
I have a dead Mi5 Pro (updated to xiaomi.eu Nougat rom) that my pc only reads as Qualcomm_9008.
I already tried many many posted potential solutions but my phone is still dead!
At this point, I HOPE that the problem is that latest MiFlash (30.aug.2016) is not so compatible with Nougat and I can't flash any ROM!
Waiting for your news!
Thank you very much

Try pressing vol down+pwr... If you see light blinking while connected to PC,that means you are in edl..
We are working on a tool that can flash through edl, the last tool was for fastboot unbrick...
In order to make sure you are in edl.connect phone to PC,open miflashtool and click refers..
If it shows something like COMXX (XX will be num) its in edl..u can flash stock rom via flashtool then

I already tried many times to flash in EDL via miflash but I have error 0x000..., hello packet, etc etc
PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHEN YOU HAVE EDL Tool!
Thank you very much

Ok so I have managed to brick my device pretty good (recovery seems gone), but I can get to FASTBOOT, and from there, followed a guide to get to EDL..
So now I got the mi flash tool to flash the 7.25 image as described by this guide :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/unlock-bootloader-twrp-root-7-2-3-t3359492
No errors, but I don't think it worked because when the device reboots, it still can't seem to try and load a kernel (it goes black real quick). I am hoping it that the other unmentioned fields need populating etc..
Are there instructions on how to do a complete flash from EDL anywhere ?

This will work for a complete clean flash via edl

Yep.. I managed to do something similar with a newer FB ROM and the modded twrp so there is less chance to relock my BL.
Thanks for providing the post.. it makes me feel more comfortable knowing that this info is available in case I need it again

Thanks. I kept getting partition type errors. The link you posted kept having network errors and dropping.

Le pro 3 x720 brick?

Hi, since yesterday I have a big problem with my le pro 3, while charging the phone suddenly turned off. The system did not want to turn on, so I went into recovery (TWRP) and tried to format and upload a new rom, unfortunately during the flashing, a blue screen appeared. When changing the kernel, the flashing of the rom was done, but with the installation of the gapps it hung. I tried to install another rom, but it also spilled, with this addition, that I can not enter recovery, because artifacts appear or reboots.. Only fastboot works. With it, I tried to flash the kernel, recovery, but it did not do anything. I also used (TOOL ALL in ONE) and uploaded the stock rom, but the phone still does not work. Do you know what else could help, or is buying a new phone? Thanks for help
If you can use fast boot, your phone is not hard bricked. A brick is when you can not do anything , you will have a black screen and a red blinking light if a usb cable is connected.
Try pushing Twrp ( newest version) to the phone. If that is successful boot to recovery, fully wipe your phone, reboot to recovery and install you Rom> Gapps, and Magisk. I would suggest initially flashing Lineage 15.1. Once your phone is restored, flash whatever you would like.
If it doesn't work try another cable, or another port, or another computer. Computer needs to be up to date and you may need to temporarily disable antivirus, if the All in One tool isn't working its likely that your computer is blocking the install. especially if you are using Windows 10. All the program to be open within your firewall settings. Make sure its up to date and use AIO to update android drivers and adb.

What does the log say?
if you are getting no errors at at and can only boot to fastboot try the All in One tool or use the QPST method to unbrick. Also, some posted versions of Qfil are corrupted. Did you use the version that I provided a link for?

Okay sure, I provided you with a link to the correct files to use. I.E Flash 2.0 and le_zl1_qfil_ufs_fix.zip
Twice you have mentioned that you are using flash One, when you should be using flash 2.0
What Pin code?
Your pin error sounds like you are either using the old Qfil ( its corrupted, and never worked for anyone. ) Or the technician repair rom did not complete. There will be a log file on the PC from Flash 2, not the phone, is port 9008 open in device manager?
There should be no pin code, if qfil was installed, all of your data would be wiped, did you encrypt the phone with 3rd party software?
Are also using the wrong version of Qfil?
Review these additional steps

I am using flashone 2.0 and flashing from your link, the file "le_zl1_qfil_ufs_fix.zip". Port 9008 is open. After three flash in 2.0 flash, I could enter recovery, but when flashing custom rom, a blue screen appeared.
Not enough information, did you follow all of the steps? You can't just flash a Rom after unbricking.
To be clear
You restored the phone, booted into the system, turned on developer options, checked oem unlocking, booted into recovery, and did a factory reset to repair the storage as outlined in my instructions link?
Then booted into the system again, turned on developer options, checked oem unlocking, checked that storage is accurate?
From this point you start over, if your storage issue isn't fixed you will get a blue screen.
After you have perform those steps you should be able to use the all in one tool to check that the bootloader is unlocked, install the latest TWRP, compatible Rom, Gapps and latest magisk.
If you still have issues after all of that. No doubt, its hardware related. It could be one part or several parts. Time to buy a new phone.

Once we managed to load the system, which hung up after 3 seconds and the whole situation started again. Failed to reload the system or enter recovery. I did all the steps in turn. After the system startup I did not even manage to enter the settings, because it has already hung up and restarted.

That sucks!
Its either that the partitions are inaccurate or you have hardware problems.
If its partitions, its not something that I have experience with. However, I did find this link; which has instructions for resolving partition issues using the MiniTool Partition Wizard and HDD Raw Copy Tool. https://www.leakite.com/2016/06/revised-how-to-unbrick-qualcomm-android.html

They should download automatically, if you follow the instructions on those previous Links . The instructions should show which folders the files are located in.
Luckily, I saved these files the last time I de-bricked someones phone.

i flash Qfil, but not helped it stay the same

cool 1 /LeRee LE3 drive image

Hi guys.
After many attempts I've done it - I bricked phone. As you probably guessed it was Cool 1 from LeEco.
My current situation is moderately positive, I haven't used hammer... yet .
Now, status of the phone is hard bricked but with possibility to go into download mode by making contraction on USB cable.
Unfortunately, to go forward I need drive image which i didn't make before flashing (yes, shame on me )
I tried to find it by Google and on XDA, but without success.
So, anyone have such image I would be very grateful for sharing it.

SOLVED:Stuck at PIN input, then reboots

Well, I f*cked up.
Fastboot works, I can flash stock rom via Xiaomi Flash. Flashing completes without any problems. A notification about encypting phone shows up, at 3% it jumps to 100% and resumes boot. Now after each boot, phone freezes at "input your sim pin" and reboots. Over and over again. What can I try, please help :

Try to format data in twrp or stock recovery.
If it does not work flash an android 8.0 or Nougat ROM. Do not lock the bootloader.
Let me guess. From Pie to Oreo or Nougat?

will give it a read, it it works, I'll PM you and you'll give me your paypal address. Fair is fair.
can't unlock OEM, because I can't boot up to developer tools. great, just great. will try to fix that first.
if you can boot to fastboot try to flash stock pie 10.0.4.0 with miflash, after that your device should be able to boot, than unlock OEM and bootloader and downgrade to what version you want

I can get to fastboot yeah, but MiFlash tool says that remote oem unlock is not allowed. So I'll probably have to open it up for EDL. Reboot to edl isn't working. Thanks for the advice tho.

i had a problem like yours, but i have flashed stock rom in non EDL mode and everything had start to work apart LTE band missing that i restored with qualcomm's tools
which stock rom have you try to flash? are you downgrading from oreo? bootloop on android one logo after downgrading is a common issue due to ARB (anti rollback protection)

The problem is with the Pie specific partition table
I write the whole guide from memory, so it can differ a bit.... I skipped some steps ( erasing, reboot, fastboot mode, TWRP loading via fastboot, OEM unlock )
From previous writings I think you can know the skipped steps.
Keep in mind: It is dangerous, you can loose your IMEI ( it will only work again with Pie - or there are some writings at forum how can you manually change it. ).
Steps:
1 - Backup with TWRP (fastboot) efs,persist,modem & make copy to your computer and or to your cloud provider.
2 - Create a new folder in Internal Storage -> TWRP -> BACKUP -> With a new date directory ( the backup already made one, make a new folder, with different date )
3 - Download someone's older TWRP backup from xda (I cheated, I copied the following links ) :
(I'm still a new user, so can't directly write url's )
Mediafire : https COLON SLASH SLASH bit.ly SLASH 2QU5NtC
Mirror: Google Drive : https COLON SLASH SLASH bit.ly SLASH 2UN1DTo
4 - Unpack, and copy EFS to the folder created 2 point
5 - Fastboot TWRP -> Restore EFS
6 - Flash the Official latest firmware from en.miui.com ( If you want to make sure go with EDL mode )
7 - Now, the IMEI & Mac addresses are missing. Don't panic! Download update with System Updates.
8 - When you are on Pie again, restore your first TWRP (fastboot) persist partition
9 - One more System restore
At this time, you will have IMEI & Mac addressees, and hopefully a working phone.
Hope this helps. The same thing happened with me 2 weeks ago. This is how I solves it.
Thank you, I solved it yesterday. Hopefully this post will come in handy for other people!

Hard bricked,only vibrates

Hello guys,i was trying to flash LOS and after many tries i hard bricked my phone.At start,screen wasnt turning on and phone vibrated sholtly every 1 sec.I did EDL and then flashed different roms but still phone just vibrates but for a bit longer.When i do EDL it gets recognised by pc.Also when i flash a rom before i try to boot,if i connect it to power the led is blinking.
I dont want to be this guy who opens a thread that has opened many times,but i couldnt figure out a solution whatsoever.Thanks in advance.
Did you try downgrade from pie to oreo? Can you enter fastboot mode?
I bricked my phone too. Nothing worked for me. I hope you have more luck.
How it got bricked? Did you read the whole tutorial ?

I tried to flash from a video in youtube and didnt work.My system was deleted so i tried flashing different roms,it let me flash stock android and when i rebooted it just vibrated.Looks like the first vibration is the same as when the phone boots and the rest are a bit longer.

Does it let you to boot into twrp now? If yes try to flash the stock rom via twrp there is a version which you flash directly with twrp

I was one of them. I was lucky though and got a new phone from the dealer. I followed all the threads with the same issue. Never saw one user who was able to solve it.

I recommend you to read a lot about flashing custom ROMs before trying to do it.
LineageOS has a pretty explicit installing tutorial.
If you can get into fastboot mode there is hope.
Remember that you must have the bootloader unlocked.
