First of all, i have read some similar threads about this, and all advise diffrent solution besides the hardware mod, I have tried for 2 days all methods in Miui forums and none have worked for me except the hardware method.
My Device: Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro / SD version.
State:
-would only show "Mi" logo when powered on.
-Would enter only Fastboot.
- No EDL mode
- No recovery
-bootloader locked
-In this state, you can't flash absolutely nothing with any software. (from fastboot).
Requirements:
- windows 7/ windows 10 x64 edition.
- ONLY LATEST version of miflash, from 2016 onward, so it has the required drivers and methods to work with the phone. (I have tried with older versions and it did not work, i thought there was no hope for my phone).
- one hard bricked Redmi Note 3 Pro
- any fersion of Stable FASTBOOT OFFICIAL rom. (.tgz extension) - I personally used kenzo_global_images_V7.2.3.0.LHOMIDA_20160129.0000.14_5.1_global_c85ba6c524.tgz
- medium disassembly skills,
- a lot of patience,
- minimum set of tools (one small cross screwdriver, 1-2 strong finger nails, good eyesight).
- one microusb cable
HOW TO:
1. uninstall all drivers and software related to the Xiaomi phone. (I ended up reinstalling windows 7 just to be sure all was gone - that is how desperate I became). To be sure this is done correctly, with the phone turned off, connect it to the computer.
Go into device manager, search in com ports, or wherever any drivers are installed for the phone, and uninstall all of them, ticking remove driver files also.
after doing this, hit refresh, and see if any drivers get installed again.
Repeat until there are no drivers installed, and the device will be without a driver.
2. Disconnect the phone and RESTART WINDOWS
3. Disable driver signature verification/enforcement:
a. in windows 7, this is easy: restart windows, hit f8 until a menu pops up where you can choose disable driver signature verification/enforcement.
b. in windows 10, it is a little bit longer, but: http://www.howtogeek.com/167723/how...8.1-so-that-you-can-install-unsigned-drivers/ - Be careful, when choosing the option in the last menu, use F... keys, not number keys.
4. while in windows, in the bottom right corner, there should be a message saying "test mode"
5. install ONLY the LATEST VERSION of Miflash! you may get some messages about driver installation (2 times), allow installation!
6. RESTART WINDOWS
7. Prepare the phone!: I followed the video here, even I did not understand the language: http://choimobile.vn/threads/video-...o-snapdragon-650-fix-download-mode-edl.65098/
- First, I used my nail to open the phone up, just like in the video. It is great that the screen is not glued to the body, there are only some clips holding it in place!
- after opening the cover please be careful - there is a cable connecting the case to the mainboard - the fingerprint sensor.
- after this, unscrew the 7 or 8 screws as in the video.
- unlock the cables as in the video - please be sure not to disconnect all the cables.
- now, first get the antenna plastic cover outside of the way.
- after disconnecting the camera module, I would personally advise you to get the camera out of the way first, as there is a piece of foil glued between the mainboard and the underneath of the camera module (on the display)
- with great care, rise the Mainboard from the display.
- to have better access to the testpoint pins, I turned the Mainboard over the battery.
- now, connect the microusb cable to the phone.
8. connect the phone to the computer.
9. go into device manager and check if there are any devices installed, there should be under ports.... a device called Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E.
10. Now comes the tricky part, switching the phone to EDL mode (emercency download)
look on the back of the motherboard of the phone to connect the 2 testpoint pins as in the video. You can use anything to do this. a metal wire, a small scissors, an untied paperclip... You will have to do this while device manager is opened, as you must check it when the driver changes to "qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008".
Please be careful when trying to connect the 2 pins not to touch any metal housing, ans this will restart the device each time.
Now, try and try and try until the driver changes to "qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008".
11. unzip the rom using 7 zip to a destination of your choosing. I advise as short destination as possible and no spaces used in the folder naming. I unpacked it in C:\rom\
12. Open Miflash
13. As per other many many instructions:
a. click browse - select the folder where you unpacked the rom (for me, c:\rom\)
b. click the arrow next to brows button and select advanced.
c. in the first field, navigate to the folder where the rom was unpacked and select flashall.bat
d. in the third field select prog_emmc_firehose_8976_ddr.mbn from the "images"folder in the folder whre he rom was extracted
e. field 7: rawprogram0.xml and field8: patch0.xml
f. Hit the Refresh button, the device should appear as a com port in the white field of Miflash.
g. just to be sure, tick also "flash all" in the bottom of miflash.
14. Hit the Flash button on Miflash and this should be the last step before powering up your revived Xiaomi Redmi Note 3.
This is what I learned in the past 2-3 days.
Different errors I got during the learning process and what i did to avoid them:
- different problems with drivers not installing correctly or showing different device names - just use the method i pointed out in the beginning to uninstall any driver previously installed on the computer, with the refresh in device manager and than uninstalling all.
- "end of package" error at second 2 while flashing in Miflash - you are using an older or an unsupported version of miflash, just use the latest one.
- not being able to flash anything while in fastboot - if you have a locked bootloader, on redmi note 3 snapdragon version, you simply won't be able to flash anything. end of story. this is the whole purpose of having a locked bootloader.
- trying to go into EDL mode using fastboot comand "fastboot oem eld" - this will not work for a really bricked device as was mine. the only solution is to go through the tespoint pin connection.
i wonder if there's a way not to make trwp locked in the recovery partition, so if someone flashes a factory rom without precaution, twrp will simply get overwritten by factory recovery. Wouldn't that prevent these hard bricks?
btw, nice guide
Please move the thread into guides/tutorial section.
Well, mine was bricked too 2 days ago... even I already unlock the bootloader using the official way.
It happened because I'm on AOSP and I flash Xiaomi.EU ROM from TWRP.
'MI' Logo flashed twice then the phone turns off itself.
It can't boot, can't enter EDL mode. I just can go into fastboot mode. But nothing can be done there because it always says 'device is locked'.
'fastboot oem device-info' also says the phone is on locked state.
Dunno why this happen, I think its because I play with the unlock bootloader toggle on previous MIUI and AOSP ROM.
After countless of times trying to get into EDL, I give up.
Device manager always show "QCom HS-USB Diagnostic 900E" instead of "QCom HS-USB QLoader 9008"
Finally I try the official Mi Unlock software, re-unlock success and BAM... Phone boots again into system. lol...
This makes me think the bricked problem can prevented/solved to by:
- At least bind a Xiaomi Account to your phone once when using official ROM (recommended China Dev ROM)
- Use that account to apply for the unlock, and when you got the phone bricked/relocked, you can re-unlock it using official way to revive the phone
Now is possible unbrick without disassembly:

please read through all the thread, don't just throw in a link. the method mentioned by you will not work on some bricked devices, including mine. this did not work for me, so I ended up disassembling the phone.

I also applied for an unlock code, but this takes up to 15 days, and I have the phone for only 3 days . I could not wait for the code, I had to do something to revive it.

I doubt they will have much variance from xiaomi phone to phone to make it easy for factory / repair centers to fix many models... (I could be wrong though), other brands are probably different.
Well you can enter edl mode from fastboot via this simple tool

And then you can flash any miui .tgz based rom and resurrect.

Quick addition: if you're using Virtual Box, like me (on a mac), you need to enable USB 2.0 on the virtual machine. On Virtual Box, this means you have to add an extension pack. This might save you 48hrs, like it cost me
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
How can i unlock this?
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
i shut down my device by tapping power off. then removed sim card and sd card after screen went black. but when i tried to power on, it doesnt respond.. i tried holding the power button for 10s, it gives me a black screen and vibrates and instantly closes again.. so i cant boot into recovery, i cant boot to fastboot, and its unreadable on pc, it doesnt charge, no bootlogo, nothing. just bricked..
.
i dont know why, but it just bricked by itself.. i've been using mokee 9 date of 1/1/2020 thats the last update i installed, with add on su and everything was working perfectly and even if i reboot multiple times..
bootloader was unlocked so xiaomi centers wont help me..
how is it possible to make it boot again? i mean like wtf even happened? i did nothing.. i didnt flash anything and system was READ ONLY before powering off.. all i did was remove sim and sd cards... even after flashing mokee updates yesterday, it booted normally and idk what's going on..
any help?
EDIT: the phone's hard disk IC was damaged. I went to a tech guy and he changed it but then the motherboard broke entirely after flashing the qcn file for imei. Device out of warranty of course because of the damn bootloader. Thank you xiaomi for the great phone that only lasted one month before dying completely.
attempt 2
in attempt 1 i tried force reboot as mentioned, didnt work
attempt 2 : i tried force reboot while plugged to pc, this showed up
attempt 3
i tried to flash a new firmware, but device unreadable. must be on fastboot mode for mi flasher to be able to read it. im starting to lose hope.. the device is new though it makes me sad
on some topic of a bricked phone online, someone mentioned that he should try EDL mode, by cmd command FASTBOOT OEM EDL
so i tried it many times until it said successful. but still didnt fix anything, because it didnt actually boot into EDL mode, had to open my device physically and use test points. so attempt 4 failed
does this mean fastboot works?
after attempt 4, it said successful so if fastboot works like that then i can flash stock boot.img or something.. right? which image should i start with

this is the forum of the bricked phone similar to mine, except that i didnt try any flash like him it just happened randomly

attempt 5
attempt 5 failed, i tried flashing whole firmware one by one, i started with vbmeta, then recovery but it failed. idk what to do
notice
i have noticed that it only flashes small img files, if its 100kb or more it will fail. maybe due to device restart because the only way to make it read in fastboot mode is to force restart multiple times until it flashes. what to do now?
attempt 6
so according to this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJoIiLE_w3w
he installed a driver (name in attachment) then refreshed on mi flash so his device became readable on mi flasher
i tried that but it didnt work.
final attempt.. out of hope
found the possible solution. its called a deep flash cable, i will just go to any tech guy and ask him for help.
see attachment for info.

In order to enter test point / EDL / 9008 mode, you have to physically open your device and connect two points on the phone's board. Search on YouTube for Redmi 7a EDL. If you get to EDL mode, you can flash original stock firmware via MiFlash.

Yes, I hate tearing up my device so I took it to a professional. He failed to open ADL but he did the 9008. Now he waits some kind of credit. Not sure if for the app to work or for the bootloader to unlock, although it was already unlocked but maybe somehow got locked..
Any way, expected reason for brick is either latest magisk module, or kernel tweaks..
I gave the device to a professional, but he also failed to flash it even with test point. He said he was searching for a file.. I dont remember its name, something like IMOH..
Now I need to know any possible reason that might brick my phone again to avoid it

i think i know why the phone got bricked by itself, it got ARB stands for AUTOROLLBACK
read more about it here https://mi-globe.com/unbrick-your-xiaomi-phone-without-authorized-mi-account/
bootloader got automatically locked again.
Never lock the bootloader if:
- your phone was delivered Chinese version and you flashed Global firmware
- your phone was delivered Global version and you flashed Chinese firmware
- you changed system, vendor, boot or recovery partition
- you installed a custom or modified stock rom
ARB isn't an issue with this phone I suppose. Because I was on 11.0.5 and rolled back to 10.2.5 without problems.
Have you tried MiFlash Pro?

but im sure i have all drivers installed in fact i used mi flash more than once and it worked perfectly fine, and i swear i didnt try to lock it or anything, what happened is, mokee auto updates installed add on magisk and it was the latest version so i think this might have bricked it. idk..
ok i downloed all the drivers and reinstalled them, same error : "library not registered"
So I finally rooted my Oneplus 6t from t mobile. I bought the phone from swappa and it worked great. I installed a random rom and it bricked my phone.
I assume it is a soft brick since i can access adb mode but it requires me to power off the phone
and hold the volume keys along with the power button. Otherwise the phone will just boot up and
will be sutck in a continous boot loop. I then tried to fic this issue by using an msm tool found in
the xda fourms. I then entered recovery mode and perfomed a "wipe data/factory reset. I think it hurt more than it helped. Any suggestions on how to unbrick my phone?
I tried using alll three msm tools in this fourm.
when i use the msm tool (MSMDownloadTool 9.0v2) the update just stops after 4 secounds.
Also the update would fail if i were to use the msm tool (MSMDownloadTool 9.0v1 and MSMDownloadTool 9.0.13)
I have tried reinstalling the qualcom drivers but no luck.
I tried deleting the drivers and allowing windows to detect the phone nad download its own usb drivers

Okay so I open the msm tool. Then I have my oneplus 6t (t mobile) turned off. I hold both volume buttons and keep holding them while I connect the USB cable to the phone. Its basically in edl mode at this point. Then I press the start option on the msm tool. The bar fills up with green and completes itself. However a number appears that saids "4s" inside of the square. I assume that means 4 seconds left or completed in 4 seconds. My phone is still in edl mode at this time and will not boot up in any menu (normal.menu, boot menu/recovery mode). Unlesss I boot it manually.
And yes I tried a scenario where I held down both volume buttons, connected USB cord, and then let go. I also tried the scenario where I held both volume buttons, connected usb cord and kept holding the volume buttons until the process completed itself but I would get the same result. "4s"

So I finally rooted my Oneplus 6t from t mobile. I bought the phone from swappa and it worked great. I installed a random rom and it bricked my phone.
I assume it is a soft brick since i can access adb mode but it requires me to power off the phone
and hold the volume keys along with the power button. Otherwise the phone will just boot up and
will be sutck in a continous boot loop. I then tried to fic this issue by using an msm tool found in
the xda fourms. I then entered recovery mode and perfomed a "wipe data/factory reset. I think it hurt more than it helped. Any suggestions on how to unbrick my phone?
I tried using alll three msm tools in this fourm.
when i use the msm tool (MSMDownloadTool 9.0v2) the update just stops after 4 secounds.
Also the update would fail if i were to use the msm tool (MSMDownloadTool 9.0v1 and MSMDownloadTool 9.0.13)
I have tried reinstalling the qualcom drivers but no luck.
I tried deleting the drivers and allowing windows to detect the phone nad download its own usb drivers
but it did not help.

Hi, Falzer. had all but given up and was prepared to head to T-Mobile to buy the 1+ 9 Pro (I almost wish I did not fix my phone... *BUT* I DID!
My issue occurred trying to flash a Magisk patched boot.img to my newly unlocked bootloader phone. I was following an article that alleged one could root the phone without TWRP. I will say this TWRP is your friend; don't dis "him". By the way, unlocking my phone wiped my data so always important to read the whole article first as it was mentioned in the NEXT step.
[Should be including the actual error here - it is found throughout these forums but I cannot recall the exact display. Basically, if you have an unlocked bootloader and then get to the CrashDump screen, follow from here:]
Retrieve the file, boot11.1.1.1.img and download from this thread/link:
OOS stable boot image and patched magisk boot image both for 11.1.1.1.
Leaving this here as i ended up boot looping from installing custom kernel, and it being a new release i was pulling my hair trying to figure this out. Flashed through fastboot with "fastboot flash boot_a XX.img, fastboot flash boot_b XX.img"...

Do *NOT* mess with the other file to the right.
Hold all 3 buttons (2 volume buttons + power) and once/if you see Fastboot Mode, release the buttons.
Have ADB installed (you should be able to find plenty of directions for doing this).
From either PowerShell (or *maybe* CMD Prompt started as Administrator as I had been using this "successfully" for most functions):
fastboot devices
fastboot flash boot boot11.1.1.1.img
fastboot reboot
I could not believe my phone ACTUALLY booted (even with the McLaren animation intact; I'm sure one of the gurus here knows why) after all the failed attempts fooling around with MSM Download Tool [4.0] which almost EVERYONE swears by fixes/restores any brick. I understand ON ONE is forcing anyone to use any specific resolution; I am just trying to provide another last ditch effort.
EDIT/Caveat: I did not even check to see how old that thread above is, I believe late September and I had actually taken updates [via TMobile??] until the last one with a week to 10 days *but* that was probably wiped with the boot unlock so I do not know which "update" I got but figured I didn't have much to lose as I already had a "bad" version of a boot.img flashed anyway. Anyone with any technical explanations, feel free to comment. Thanks!
Hi guys. As the title says I have a T-mobile Oneplus 6T running Android 11 and I think it is bricked. It is SIM unlocked and bootloader-unlocked as well. The problem started when I tried to flash TWRP and the phone continuously went to a Qualcomm CrashingDump state. Now I've tried several tutorials online but all of them point to the 10.3.8 instead of the 11 that the phone has and using the MSM Tool comes back as The image does not match the device. To make things worst following one of the videos I updated the Qualcomm drivers via WIndows Update and now my PC will not recognize the phone (USB not recognized by Windows error). Please I need the community's help on this one. Thank you soo much in advance.
