Redmi note 7 bricked with global rom - Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers

Hi, I was wondering if there is any solution to recover my phone, what happens is that a few days ago I was flashing my phone with my flash, but I forgot select the option that only flash everything without blocking the bootloader, instead of this, my phone got blocked and won't let me access because it marks "this miui version cannot be installed on this device", my pc detects the fastboot mode but it doesn't let me flash roms, I tried the latest Chinese version but it doesn't work.
My phone came with the bootloader unlocked and the global rom when I bought it.
Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Maybe try this tool : https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-7/how-to/tool-xiaomi-pc-tools-t4059275

Just unlock the bootloader again with same Mi account. Then continue using this OS.
The area code of the ROM must same to the bootloader area code, or the phone will refuse to boot when the bootloader in Lock State. Installing and using a ROM with different area code need an unlocked bootloader.

Unable to Unlock Bootloader... Please HELP!!!! :(

hi, i have tried every possible ways to unlock the bootloader,which i found on web, but still i am unable to unlock it.. :crying: i have unlock permission, MiFlashUnlock isn't working after 50%.. found on web that i have to flash china developer rom first then it will work, but MiFlash isn't working, whenever i click the 'flash' button within 2s it shows flash done but nothing happens to the device.. download mode/edl mode also not working, whenever i enter this mode the phone automatically rebooting.. please guide me what to do.. trying different methods from last 4-5days, it feels really frustrating now, but i want to unlock the bootloader.. please help me with a proper guide.. thank you
You don't need to flash any Dev ROM. Just use older MiUnlock tool. Before trying, update your Mi forum account, log in to mi cloud, update phone's driver and then try. If it still stuck at 50%, then just wait for some more days. It'll unlock normally.
About edl mode problem, I'm having the same problem now. Please inform me if you get any solution.
Make sure you login to the mi cloud + mi account on your phone + mi flash unlock using your mobile phone number that you used to get the unlock code. I had Global Rom and was stuck at 50% but unlocked with Global Dev ROM. Coincidence or not? I don't know, worth a try.. If you're on the Global ROM you can flash Global Dev through the updater app.
yes their database isn't updated i guess.. i think i have to wait few more days!

Redmi pro rom problem

Hi everyone!
I have bougth a Redmi Pro on Gearbest and it came with Chinese/English Version of MIUI.
After a week of usage, i turned off my xiaomi and when i turned back on, it stucked on a Mi logo. Far as i discovered searching on web, it was a bug that other peopel have reported too.
I took a opportunity of having this bug to fix, to put other rom on the phone. A rom with Portuguese language witch is my mother lang.
I tried to put the new rom via "SP Flash took" with the fastboot mod but without success.
I requested the unlocking on Xiaomi Unlocking site and when they repplyed and i connected the xiaomi to the computer, the program (XiaomiMiFlash) gave me an error message telling ""Couldn´t verify device. Current account is diferent from the account info in the device"
No i can´t do nothing with the phone.
Can you guys have some idea how can i solve this?
Thank you all!
There is a good chance that the phone is already unlocked.
What was the problem with fastboot? Maybe drivers issue?
Have you tried flashing TWRP? If it takes then the phone is unlocked and you can proceed with flashing the xiaomi.eu or globerom.

Tks 4 the support!
About the Fastboot i putted the phone on fastboot mode and i disabled the Driver Signature Enforcement on Windows. I connected the phone to the computer and started to run the SP Flash Tool. After the process was completed it wont gave me any result because the phone still stucked on Mi logo..
I did'n tried the TWRP because in every tutorial tells me that i need to go to the Developer Mode and activate the USB debugging i can not access to that because the phone don't give me more than the Mi logo.
hmm the fastboot method should have worked. Have you tried it on another computer, maybe 32bit windows?
When finished flashing with miflash in fastboot did it say it was ok at the end or did it give you an error? Als tried to reboot a few times after flashing without usb cable in the phone?

Im losing my mind!
I tried again in my father's desktop wich have a 64bit windows 7 (I havent a 32 bit at home. I will try to get one borrowed)
I tried with the SP Flash Tool following a guide from "xiaomitips" and, in this computer, the program dornt even recognize my phone. I push the Download button but that give me no signal.
Is there any other way to do this? Other ways to put the rom in the phone? (Sorry the noob language)

I'm out of ideas at this point.
I had some trouble with fastboot that my phone did restart when in fastboot mode.
Then i had to change the order of plugging in the cable and starting the program but after that all worked.
No idea what next ...
I had this issue with a Redmi 3. I can't remember the exact solution but I believe you have to have the developer ROM installed in order to unlock the bootloader. Maybe if you search for an anterior model such as the Redmi 3 you will find more information on how to load your ROM. I'm sure that it's the same method for most Xiaomi phones. Good luck!
I heard about do a Hard Reset but i dont know how to do that because i cant access to the OS of the xiaomi.
Is there a way to do a hard reset with the xiaomi stucked on Mi logo?
Tks!
Happy 2017 for all!
I tried to put my phone one Recovery Mode but it is blocked. Its like the phone on this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTzdQpex7BQ

I never could get into the xiaomi recovery either but i managed to flash twrp through fastboot though.

Hi
Does your problem with sp flashtools and flashing the ROM be solved ?
Sent from my Redmi Pro
I had this problem, but I'd installed TWRP already. But you shouldn't need USB Debugging on to flash TWRP. If you manage to flash TWRP, flash a new ROM (I recommend xiaomi.eu (I think they have Portuguese)) and wipe the Dalvik cache, /cache, and /data (you probably won't have to wipe /data/media).
Miui themes
Sorry will start new item
Have you tried a different cable, that is why mine wasn't recognized at first.
I'm having the same problem here. The phone rebooted itself when I changed the locale, and hung at the Mi logo. I already had TWRP flashed. I also took the opportunity to install a new ROM; the Global Dev ROM. It installed with no errors and I wiped the Dalvik, cache, etc. Still hangs at the Mi logo, but this time without the little loading dots at the bottom. Any suggestions?
Update: I can bring it back to the original state with the loading dots and "powered by Android" at the bottom with a backup I took before flashing the new rom, but still no progress.
I managed to restore my phone using the video:
Flash Xiaomi Redmi Pro Using SP Flash Tool [Locked Bootloader]
I can't post links since I don't have enough posts here yet, but search for it on Youtube.
Update: It seems like the unlocking permissions on my account have been retroactively rejected, I wonder if that has something to do with it. I also can't seem to find the Global ROM for the Redmi Pro anymore, just the China one. Does anyone have a link for the official Global ROM on the Xiaomi site?
Update 2: Suddenly I have unlock permission again, without reapplying, so that's cool. I installed the Eu HMPro ROM, everything's working well so far.

You could try dowloading the official rom and then download the CHINESE version of mipc suite then enter fastboot and connect the phone
Normally the chinese mi pcsuite automaticly detects the phone is in fastboot mode, you could use google translate to translate it all just choose redmi pro on model selector (the top selection bar)the text there is untranslateable just choose the one that says pro
And then under it chose the one that translate to chinese
After That there's two tick box under it, choose the ROM you downloaded
After that chose the one that translate to install brush package, if it doesn't work choose the download brush package next to it
Thus method worked for me when my phone bricked hope it helps you

Cannot unlock bootloader, phone not recognized in fastboot (RN7)

I've been trying for almost two weeks to unlock the bootloader on my Redmi Note 7 (Model M1901F7H) because I want to flash the official Global ROM (it has a carrier modified ROM) But Mi unlock REFUSES to recognize the phone when it's connected in fastboot mode.
I've searched the web for a solution and tried a dozen things, including following every single step on this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-7/how-to/one-redmi-note-7-unlock-bootloader-t3890751
But I haven't been able to solve the Issue. The device is recognized by all the computers I've been using while plugged in file transfer mode, but none of them recognize the device while it's in fastboot.
Some of the things I've already done include:
Trying 3 different PCs (both AMD and intel)
Disabled signature driver enforcement
Trying USB 2.0 ports
Installing old versions of Mi Unlock
Installing Xiaomi Usb Drivers
Installing 15 seconds ADB drivers
Intalling Mi unlock directly to C://
Enabled OEM unlocking and USB debugging on the device
Linked my Mi Account to the device
Restarting the device and computer multiple times
Re installing drivers over and over again
I know this is the first and supposedly easiest step of the whole process, but I'm stuck and close to giving up (but I really don´t want to).
Can anybody please help me out?
Same here

A usb 2.0 hub did the trick for me, using a usb 3.0 only laptop. It did not work with my usual usb3 hub.

Hello,
sorry to hear that I'll try to help you but I'll need a screenshot shot of your device manager page (assuming you are using a windows PC). Make sure that you connect your phone in fastboot mode before taking the screenshot.
Maybe it's helpfull to install a VPN, in my case flexvpn from playstore, before starting unlock- process...
I solve with an old PC...but I wait for 270h to unlock...
thank you all for your comments, I don't know exactly what happened but Mi unlock recognized the device and asked me to wait for 33 hours to finish the unlocking process.

I don't know how but today Mi unlock recognized the device and asked me to wait 33 hours before unlocking.
This is my first time flashing a device and I'm feeling a bit nervous, if it's not much to ask, could you help me out with some questions? I would be very, very grateful
Can I wait 48 hours before attempting to unlock the bootloader again just to be sure? or it has to be exactly 33 hours?
I plan to flash the global RN7 rom found on en.miui.com/a-234.html to my device (Model M1901F7H), is this the correct one?
How can I lock the bootloader again after flashing this rom? I don't want to keep it unlocked
Do I need a custom recovery? I'd like to keep the stock one if possible
Is there a way to backup my current ROM? In case I need to issue a warranty claim

These stuffs seems quite tough and tense at first but its quite easy and safe if you understand what you are doing...and yes I'll answer them one by one
1)The wait period shown by the unlocker is the minimum time you would have to wait to unlock your bootloader so any time after that wait period is fine(But is a chance that even after the wait period the unlocker would give you some error if that happens PM me or quote me)
2)The device code name for Redmi note 7 is lavender so just flash the rom made for lavender I'll give the link to download the stable rom https://sourceforge.net/projects/xi...files/xiaomi.eu/MIUI-STABLE-RELEASES/MIUIv10/
From the above link download the latest version for HMnote7 ,in my opinion European is better than the original one but best rom so far is mokee.
3)You can lock your bootloader using fastboot commands or by flashing the device with miui using Flash tools...but that is not necessary open bootloader is better
4)Yes you need a custom recovery and after flashing the rom from your link the custom recovery will be replaced by the one given in the rom(Don't flash that one! Use the one i gave you if you still want miui but if you like stock then go for mokee)
5)No need to backup it is available online and it can be flashed using flash tools also doing these things and keeping the bootloader unlocked won't void your warranty so there is nothing to loose warranty will be give as per your purchase invoice date! Also if you backup that rom using a custom recovery then it can be use as failsafe if you get into a bootloop or something..but that rom is not mandatory any roms bqckup would do just fine
If you still have doubts I'll be happy to clarify ?

Thank you very much for taking the time to answer all of my questions! You've been very helpful.
I've been thinking about what you wrote but I think I wanna install the official global ROM via Mi Flash. If I select the "clear all and lock" do I risk bricking my device? That's my main concern.
I didn't mention it earlier, but the only reason I want to unlock the Bootloader is so I can flash the official global Rom, (my carrier takes ages to update the rom they install, and it's also full of bloatware) this is my main phone (less than a month old), and while I understand that keeping the bootloader open and using custom ROMS could enhance my user experience, for the time being I want to keep things simple and safe. Maybe in the near future I'll start tinkering with custom rom and recoveries.
Thank you everyone for your suggestions! I don't know exactly what did the trick, but I was able to unlock the bootloader and flash a global ROM. I've encountered some issues with it but that's another topic.
Once again, thank you all!

I have finally understood the problem. What you need to do is not install the ADB Drivers separately, but you need to check for the unknown Android device that is shown under the USB devices when you connect the device (via USB port).
You have to update that driver with the ADB Drivers.
That will only solve the problem of the fastboot detection

Can you give detailed instructions on how to "update that driver with the ADB Drivers"? After installing the 15 secs ADB drivers and Xiaomi drivers, my Note 7 is still being recognized as an "Android" device with the yellow caution sign.

You have to visit Service Center. As the username and password are secure and only available to official Developers (Service Center) .Did you relock your bootloader????
My phone has also suffered the same fate when I tried to exit the in-depth program via the app. The app said that I need to lock the bootloader before I can actually exit it. But, the problem is that the bootloader stopped working immediately after.
If I try to go to fastboot mode, then the word fastboot is displayed on the screen with the reasoning given in Chinese language. Though, in between the reasoning "6 ~ 10" is written. I wonder what these numbers means.
Also, the option to enter the program has disappeared already.
I did visit, service center this morning and they installed the old color os again. With this ROM, I did got my OTA update to color os 6 and the phone didn't showed orange state screen upon boot. But, in the developer options, it still said that the bootloader is still unlocked.
Upon updating the phone with OTA to color os 6, the orange state screen appeared again upon boot. Weird.
I really don't know what to do now. My phone has stock recovery, stock rom but no access to fastboot.
