Hi Guys,
I am stucked at fastboot mode afterb trying to flash back to China Rom,how to get out of it?
Thanks in advance.
Mi max 3 anti roll back, you mus flash last version to unbrick your device
1. This is not the right section for this question.
2. if you came from 8.8.23 China Beta you have Anti-rollback, which means that to move to china stable you would have to wait for the next china release and flash it from the updater app and not from fastboot. I know its annoying but its safe. If you are stuck in fastboot try flashing latest 8.8.23 China Beta from mi flasher
3. if you came from 8.8.9 China Beta, Try flashing 8.8.9 again
This happened me too today. My phone arrived with the fake global rom 9.6.4. I was flashing official Chinese rom v9.6.11.0 and got a message saying flash successful, however a window also popped up saying MiFlash stopped working and my phone was stuck on the fastboot screen then.
If you find a solution to this problem I would appreciate it and vice versa.
STUCK TWO!!!

1- flash and boot to twrp
2- format data then wipe (system and cashes)
3- flash xiaomi.eu 8.8.9 or any release before that and reboot
4- use mi flashtool to flash any stable before 9.6.12 or beta before 8.8.17 and choose wipe all and lock in mi flashtool ( this is very important to unlock it your self later with official permission)
Goodluck

yes, most of the unlocked phones from retailers are unlocked without official authorization and that is the main reason for ADB/fast boot fails in some cases , I have MM1, MM2 and now MM3 and I know this by experience.

hi, you enlighten me so much. can i ask more? now what rom do u use in mi max 3? and why?
So to rectify, I tried to flash the official China ROM V.9.6.11 again. It did not flash properly again the 2nd time.
I then asked it to "flash and lock". Official China ROM flashed now and operating on my phone.
My plan is now to apply to have the phone OFFICIALLY unlocked, as it was obviously unofficially unlocked to put the fake Global ROM on it by the vendor, which caused a problem being stuck in Fastboot.
I do not mind waiting the 2 weeks, and once unlocked I will either put the Xiaomi.EU rom on it, or hopefully the official Global ROM will be released by that time.

You must relock and unlock with official mi permission to avoid fastboot flashing issues.
Where I can download the official rom to use mui flash?
Where i can find an explanation to use mui flash? Cause after lock the boot loader the phone is in bootloop...

What do you actually flash in step 1?
Is step 3 really necessary? Why can't I flash from the fake ROM directly to 9.6.11?
Thanks, man!

in step (1) flash official twrp ( I used minimal adb v1.4.3), step (3) is to have correct firmware and avoid mi flasher fail and boot loop ( many guys try flashing directly from fake rom to China but ended up with bootloops)

Alright, so I am on China stable 9.6.11 with TWRP (not Xiaomi original recovery). When I flashed my latest ROM, I chose "clean all and lock (bootloader)" per your instructions and I applied for offical bootloader unlocking by downloading Xiaomi flash unlocking. I still have 500+ hours, but I was told when my bootloader is unlocked eventually, my user data will be erased again.
So will it be a better idea to flash global stable ROM first or wait for the official bootloader unlocking then flash global stable ROM?
Question: I have China Stable 9.6.12.0 on mine Max3. If I want to install the Global Version should I have to wait for Global Version equal version (9.6.12.0) or later? Os there any suggestion to flash the incoming Global 9.6.7.0 on mine (ARB suposed to be implemented in mine version)?

hello all, if someone can help me, i have my mi max3 with locked bootloader.
now i dont have any rom on it so trying to load a rom but getting an error ERASE is not allowed in locked state
what rom can i flash on it ?
tried to unlock bootloader via the tool, it gets stuck at 50% cannot verify phone.
Hey guys,
i just want to ask if there is a tested method to relock the bootloader of a rooted A2 Lite.
I use the stock rom, just unlocked and rooted it.
I've read something about the MiFlashTool and the Clean and Lock Option.
But I'm not sure about that, because the MiFlashTool is for Miui.
So what are the steps to relock the bootloader?
Thank you for your help

The MiFlashTool is also for the Stock Rom of the Mi A2 Lite (Not only MIUI!)
Download the Stock Rom and you can flash it via MiFlash. If you choose the option, you can relock the Bootloader when you do this.
Woah there buddy, if you try to lock a rooted phone you will have a hard brick. Don't try to lock the bootloader of a phone that is rooted or have system/boot etc. modifications.

Not sure if it would work, the cleanest way would be to download official fastboot ROM, flash it via MiFlash (select clean and lock option). This will erase all your data and turn your phone to stock ROM. I'm saying this is the cleanest way because you may have issues by unrooting and locking the phone. Maybe it would work. Unsure.

Ok, this was a misunderstanding
If you lock your bl at a modified system, you will get the message "your system got destroyed", I once had this. But I was lucky being able to unlock again... So no hardbrick... But doing all that leads to nothing. Btw. it's always useful to have an open bl... For example, if you mess up with a magik module and stuck @boot... Just ignore the stupid message of xiaomi!

To prevent this, i want to remove the root access in the first place.
That i have a clean stock rom.
I tried it with no-data-loss method and it says, system is destroyed, i have it to unlock it.
With root, you can relock it, but it's useless.

Backup up everything first
Download MiFlash and the correct ROM (not OTA version)
Then you can flash the Stock ROM which will remove everything
You can also choose to leave unlocked or lock the bootloader (re-lock is selected by default)
As this is a somewhat new device I wouldn't tick the option to save your data.

Take a look at this thread:

you can find pretty much all ota's and fastboot rom links.
All full ROMs end with .tgz extension
like this one:
http://bigota.d.miui.com/V9.6.4.0.O...0.ODLMIFF_20180724.0000.00_8.1_4afd3431a2.tgz
you have to extract it to be able to use it with MiFlash but I'm sure you'll find all the answers in the thread above

Hi,
I just tried to root my Mi Max 3 but got bootloop, what can I do?
I unlocked the device.
Then I flashed TWRP 3.2.0. nitrogen, devcie was encrypted then.
I flashed Magisk 18.1., rebooted, but bootloop.
I rebooted into TWRP again and flashed no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip and again Magisk 18.1 and rebooted, but bootloop only.
I did factory reset but bootloop only.
What am I suposed to do? Any help from you guys?
Thanks you very much !
download and install the latest twrp from nijel8. Make a wipe and install only a clean rom and magisk. Nothing more. It must work.
Tried magisk 18.0?
I use magisk 18.0 and official twrp 3.2.3.0.
Hi,
it didnt help unfortunately.
I think I first need to flash a stock firmware completely right? Then try another round with the suggested versions by you guys.
I downloaded stock ROM from Xiao Mi Website here: http://en.miui.com/a-234.html
It is named: nitrogen_global_images_V10.2.1.0.OEDMIFK_20181218.0000.00_8.1_global
But when I try to flash it via fastboot mode and the help of Xiao Mi Flash Tool I get an error like this (attachment)
Any help?
Update: I just flashed official full rom named: miui_MIMAX3Global_V10.2.1.0.OEDMIFK_885d8903d6_8.1.zip via TWRP and it didnt show any errors (but TWRP still installed, I expected stock revoery actually?!). I wiped cache and rebooted but still bootloop.
I am really not sure what to do now.
Update 2: I now was able to flash stock rom (nitrogen_global_images_V10.2.1.0.OEDMIFK_20181218.0000.00_8.1_global) via fastboot mode (error like on screenshot didnt appear anymore, dont really know why) now phone is only booting into stock MIUI recovery and shows a red noteification: "This MIUI Version cant be installed on this device" -> Can anybode give me help please?
Update 3: Tried to unlock again but it fails due to my device is not bound to my MI Account, but how to add it to account as I cant boot it up anymore and go to the settings in android. Or do I need another FULL Rom? I read smth that this error (Rom cant be installed on this device) appears if one is trying to flash Global Rom instead of China ROM? Where to get this one? Dont know the difference actually But my phone had google services preinstalled
I now even downloaded the chinese full rom: Mi Max 3 China Stable ROM 10.0.6.0 – V10.0.6.0.OEDCNFH / MIUI 9 / fastboot / Android Oreo because I think maybe this was originally i nstalled (purchased phone in Indonesia which is black market)
but once I try to flash it, the mix flash tool tells me now erase is not allowed in locked mode. I need to unlock first? but how? Unlock bootloader is not possible due to device is not bound with my mi-account.
I am really lost know
current situation:
not able to flash china full rom because locked
not able to unlock because device not bound to mi-account
I amonly able to bootup into mi-stock reciovery and stock bootloader.
what can I do?

Can't you flash from stock recovery? Download recovery rom matching your stock recovery(china or global), save in microsd. Enter recovery and flash rom.
Edit: sorry, just checked. Not possible to select file from stock mi recovery.

I dont really know. AT least all google services were available. does this mean it has been the global base? I bought this phone in Indonesia were it is not available officially, only through some black market sellers in the malls. Maybe they also have used the chinese versions, unlocked and reflashed the global versions and then they sell it. So maybe it has been the chinese base originally but is sold out with the global version? On the devices backside is a sticker with IMEi, IMEI2, MEID and SN, does this say anything about the version?

thanks a lot for this tip, bro. I am not sure because in this guide they say it will help you to flash a recovery? I am having stock recovery already installed. I need to reflash the correct Rom. Anyway, I will try it asap. Atm it fails due to bad internet connection in my hotel right now.
I will download following ROM: Chinese Stable: MIUI 10 V10.2.1.0.OEDCNXM as a .zip archive and will try to load it into the Mi Assistant tool and try to start flashing from there. OK? Will let you know about the result then.

Its for flashing rom. Use the recovery rom, not fastboot rom. What it means is that your recovery should match the rom. (MiRecovery china, recovery rom china. MiRecovery global, recovery rom global)
I dont know which recovery version you successfully flashed to phone, but i guess its china. Won't able too boot if device is locked and recovery is not original to phone aka china recovery.
Edit:from that thread,someone successfully flashed miui10. If you failed to do so, DO NOT try to flash miui9. Different ARB, will permanently brick device.

I just tried to flash the CN rom package mentioned in my last post with this MiAssistant Beta 3.0, but package verification failed:
Does this mean it is the wrong rom package and I simply need to download the other versions and test it with other ones and once erfification works fine I will know this must be the correct one? Or is this just another error i am know running into?
Any idea?

I guess verification failed means not matching. You can try global rom. Btw, have you try wipe data. Maybe rom already flashed properly but data bug causes bootloop. Try wipe then reboot.

Yes, I also used this wipe feature in this Mi Assistant but unfortunately it did not help. After rebooting again bootup screen appears a bit longer and I can hear a short beep sound which let me think it will boot up properly but unfortunately it then restarts into recovery mode only.
well installed is this one: nitrogen_global_images_V10.2.1.0.OEDMIFK_20181218.0000.00_8.1_global, which I flashed earlier today via mi flash tool.
Now I tried to flash miui_MIMAX3Global_V10.2.1.0.OEDMIFK_885d8903d6_8.1.zip which should be the same, but verification failed, too.
Does it make sense?!

Global and china rom have their own signature. But different version always have same signature. If verification failed, I thought signature didn't match.
Now you have tried both global and china and still failed. I'm confused. I don't have any idea anymore..

well, now there is nitrogen_global_images_V10.2.1.0.OEDMIFK_20181218. 0000.00_8.1_global installed on the phone.
Also the Mi Assistant tool recgnizes V10.2.1.0.OEDMIFK as currently installed. My box has pon backside some chinese signs, no teaser "Global version". I think it has been chinese but black market sellers flashed global roms already to fit the indonesian market.
But I just noticed that in this Mi Assistant tool I have the options "Flash" and "Quick FLash" (erase all data) and there they mention it will work with Miui 8 and 9. Seems this Assistant tool is not MIUI 10-ready?! And I couldnt find a newer version of this.
Maybe this is the reason why verification with MIUI 10 packages fails?

OK checked. Through fastboot check of ARB I get:
fastboot getvar anti
getvar:anti FAILED (remote: GetVar Variable Not found)
finished. total time: 0.016s
Wondering again why again an error lol
TRhrough opening flash_all.bat file I see:
CURRENT_ANTI_VER=4
fastboot %
which means I cant downgrade, ya?
I ****ed up.
I was coming from miui weekly eu version, I wanted to flash a GSI image. I did in twrp, GSI pixel experience arm a only. Didn't boot further till mi logo. So fastboot flashed miui10 stable and booted till setup screen. Boot asked for a password after GSI boot. So I wanted to try a different GSI and reflashed. Didn't work also. Again fastboot flashed miui10, this time I forgot to unselect 'format and lock' didnt saw that. Now it won't boot in system and twrp, and also can't unlock bootloader anymore with mi unlocked as my phone is somehow not linked to my account anymore.
What am I supposed to do now?

Did you tried to flash recovery? Cuz if you unlocked it with official way I think it can be used also why u install again with miflash via fastboot? With recovery its safe...
Oops

Yes I tried flashing custom recovery. Says it can't flash it as my bootloader is not unlocked. Did the fastboot flash again because I wanted to do a deep clean flash again. But forgot to unselect the lock button. Now its locked and only booting in standard miui recovery and fastboot.

Why did you keep using fastboot to flash stock most of these need xiaomi.eu ROM as a base which can be flashed via twrp whatever version you use and it's because you chose flash all and lock hence your stuck now as can't unlock bootloader. I just recovered mine from ARB EDL brick as invought it cheap in that state. You need to flash a stock version version that's suitable to get stock working then attach your account in settings so bootloader unlock can work. My model was Chinese so I needed flash Chinese stock and started again. If your phone was originally Chinese start there then unlock the bootloader etc.

In a nutshell flash and lock with stock version for phone as if Chinese flash and lock won't work with a global stock ROM. Flash a Chinese stock to get back into system and start over again

Yes flash the latest official Chinese not global stock using mi flash tool as that will get your phone back up and running on stock. Then add your account in settings so bootloader unlock can see it. Enable dev setting tick OEM unlock and add account. Unlock your boot loader and your back again mate. If you could have unlocked your boot loader the global would boot but not while it's locked.
1. Flash latest CN firmware
2. Add account in settings after set up
3. Try bootloader unlock again should not have to wait if unlocked before
4. Flash twrp and keep copy of xiaomi.eu ROM on your micro SD card as that's all you need to flash in recovery to return to stock. It's flashed via recovery without errors

I tried the newest version of chinese rom: "nitrogen_images_V10.2.1.0.PEDCNXM_20190214.0000.00_9.0_cn". Same error. It simply can't flash it as my bootloader is locked......
Anyone who can fix this hard brick gets $10 worth of Bitcoin or Ethereum from me.
Hmmm, if you bootloader can be unlocked. I can help you because I hard-bricked my phone because of the Anti Rollback by flashing an earlier version of global pie beta over the current one (10.2.1.0). I had someone from the s-unlock website unbrick my device for me because my Mi account had no authorization to finish the Mi Flash process. So instead, the tech guy used his authorized mi account to bypass the Mi Flash install remotely on my computer to make my phone work again.

My account is verified but I am not signed into it on my phone as I can not boot into system.
Basically you need to flash the latest version of the Chinese stock miui but I haven't seen any tool that does that while bootloader is locked. You won't be able to unless you have bootloader unlocked. It bootloader gets unlocked phone will boot normal but your account should still been linked as phone was signed into it previously. Strange that it won't recognise your account when using the bootloader unlock tool

That is the problem. I was booted into system but skipped the option for logging into my mi account as it was only to get past the unlock screen. Then did the clean flash again but then with the flash all and lock then I couldn't boot into system anymore. I'm seriously in trouble now, I loved this phone. Thankfully I still have a Mi A1 which I use now but it kinda sucks tho.
I guess its the end for this device.
I cant boot into system. I cant flash TWRP as my bootloader is locked (Token verify failed).
Getting error while flashing with fastboot: https://imgur.com/a/VAa7R9o
Mi Max 3 was a good one, RIP
Hi!
i installed the global rom via TWRP recovery
now when i try to set up new device all i get is chinese region
Then i hit next and started looping for some reason and message showing "Find Device Automatically Closed"
After multiple loops it restarts and the TWRP is gone
i tried multiple Roms all the same
if anyone has a clue please help
The solution : use MiFlash not TWRP and careful just flash not flash and lock you might get into a bootloop if you made that mistake just like i did don't panic use Mi Unlock
After it reboots setup your device say goodbye to Chinese bloatware.
Thx @nhtnokia

I think you should use MiFlash to change from CHINA to the GLOBAL version.
