Problem unlocking bootloader - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers

Hello
I've redmi note 5 (whyred) with global stable Rom 9.5.13.0
And I tried to unlock it today..
The problem is that miui flash unlock program doesn't recognize the device.
I thought that the Adb driver is not installed ( I've unlocked mi several Xiaomi phones on same laptop before)
So I double checked the driver installation and figured out that then I connect the device on bootloader mode the device manager detects it with no problem (as android bootloader device)
As soon as I open the mi flash unlock tool the device disconnects and disappear from device manager.
Did anyone faced this before?

I have the exact same issue. Spent a lot of time figuring out what to do, even my device was not recognized by the latest Mi unlock 3.3 (rn5 pro india 9.5.13 global stable) because the fastboot kept vanishing.
However, if you use an older version of Mi Unlock (I tried 2.2 and varying versions) it actually did recognize the device but the unlocking only goes to 99% and asks you to wait 360 hours.
I've tried to bypass it using different methods but to no avail. I think Xiaomi has patched everything.
Guess we'll have to wait.

Yes, the phone displays this sentence with small font when it gets disconnected, how did you fix that

This is probably a driver problem. Disable Driver Signature Enforcement in Windows. Open command prompt as admin and type:
bcdedit.exe – set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit.exe – set TESTSIGNING ON
And run mi unlock tool again

thanks but i solved it with this method https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...nlock-bootloader-or-run-fastboot-cmd.4180389/

Firstly ur phone must be on Stock miui Rom otherwise ur phone will not detecte with pc then use Xaomi flash tool v2 not miui flash tool...first one is different from miui flash tool...with this tool u can boot ur phone in fastboot mode and u can install custom revery and many features.

Mi5S bootloop after flash to 8.2.4.0MAGCNDL China Stable

Hello,
I tried to flash my phone from global 8.0.3.0 stable to 8.2.4.0MAGCNDL China Stable. Miflash said flashing was successfull, but then I started my phone and was on a bootloop.
I cannot access edl mode via deep flash cable anymore, it´s just loading. My phone isn´t unlocked that´s why i can´t flash over fastboot. I already tried to the recover mode and downloaded a chinese version of Mi Pc Suite. It detects my device but when I try to recover it switches for like 3 secs to the right screen but then immediately switchs back to the first screen (connect device).
One thing i´ve noticed is there is an option to choose a xiaomi ota file, what is that, because I can´t find anything.
Is there any hope for my phone?
Not good, you shouldent even try to flash china stable(you can but why). so, i think you should enter EDL with testpoints, or you can try do hard reset, maybe this will work.
use this method and then flash your mi5s with stable global.
http://en.miui.com/thread-310325-1-1.html
Download Mi PC suite china version then enter recovery mode and connect the phone to pc,let it make the update and your done.

Not working, it just stops immediatly the process, if I press recover
Then u need to connect the phone via USB 2 not 3 and install the correct driver's. The phone must be detected Android adb interface

I´ve installed all drivers and it´s connected to a usb 2 port. Phone is in Device Manager under "Kedacom USB Device/Android ADB Interface"
if you cannat connect the phone as edl,you should give it to mobile repaire center and they fix it with boot boxes for you.
Thanks for all your help guys, I finally recovered my phone and I´m on Lineage OS now.

Hard-Bricked Redmi Note 8 Pro after MIUI 11 Update

Hello,
My phone got hard bricked yesterday after the MIUI 11 update. It was running fine before on lastest MIUI10 global ROM with persistent TWRP, root and magisk. Bootloader is unlocked.
The phone dont turn on anymore and just show a white notification led when plugged to a PC. No recovery or fastboot access
If i press volume up when i plug it to my pc, it show up as "Mediatek USB Port" and disappear after 5 seconds.
I tried to open the phone/ removing battery, shorting EDL test points, but nothing happens.
My only solution appears to be using Sp_flash_tool but seems like i need an authorized Mi account flash the stock ROM.
Do someone know where i can get acces to one of those account ?
Thanks for your replies guys !
Redmi Note 8 Pro Hard Bricked
I'm in the same situation.
please help me
Hello,
The same thing happened to me when I installed the Orange FOX recovery, it didn't go into Fastboot mode, so I had to press the 3 buttons and wait for it to turn off completely, open the ADB control console and then connect it to the PC via USB by pressing the volume + button.
The latter I did on several occasions (Turn it off completely and connect by USB). Until I recognized it, when I recognized them, I had to flash the SYSTEM, CUST, RECOVERY. One by one, in total it took almost 5 minutes.
After that the phone started normal, obviously without root, nor custom recovery.
I'm also in the same situation as all of you, the PC doesn't recognize me and I can't go into fastboot
Hey,
I tried everything I could (battery connected/unplugged), my phone seems to have a corrupted preloader and only start the boot rom. That's why it shows up as "Mediatek USB PORT", if the preloader was'nt corrupted, it should be named "MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM port" or something similar.
The only way to recover it imo is to flash a healthy preloader using SPFlashTool low level flash mode and next flash a full rom when "MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM port" appears in the device manager.
Unfortunately, xiaomi ask for a certified account for low level flashing. I found one but the guy ask for 40$ for just logging it into my pc with teamviewer.
I buyed a Samsung Note10+ in replacement and i'll just wait someone find a solution to sell my 10-day-used redmi if I can revive it one day.
I got hundreds $ of Xiaomi home automation products in my home, but that was my first phone from this brand. I think it will also be the last.
I'm sad to see that their security policy on the phones is so frustrating to the people who just want to have a full acces on their devices.
Authorise can be done with professional tools
Tools like umt, hydra tool, miracle xiaomi tool, does the authorization. And i think mtk cpu Auth will only be available in miracle xiaomi tool, be aware every Auth cost credit of 4 to 10 u will have but credit separate from the tool.. Hope this will help

I Faced The Same Problem Of Bricked Phone Of Redmi Note 8 Pro, I Was Unable To Enter Fastboot Mode, Recovery Mode & Even Can't Enter Into The System Because I Flash Wrong Boot.img File, Thereafter I Tried To Use SP Flash Tool But Failed Due To Xiaomi Authorised Account Issue. Then I Emailed Xiaomi For Getting My Account Authorised And They Emailed Back And Told Me That They Can't Authorise My Account..
Then I Decided To Visit Mi Service Centre As My Phone Was In Warranty, The Funniest Fact Is The Technicians Existed There Were Failed To Detect The Problem. I Told Them That My Phone Was Automatically Got Dead After Installing An Update Just For Making Them Unaware From The Real Fact.
I Told Them That There Is No Hardware Issue Only Need To Flash Original Firmware But They Are Freak And Didn't Listen To Me And Opened Up Every Part Of The Phone, Now They Told Me That The Phone Will Need 7 Days Of Repairing Take The Phone After 7 Days.
I Tried To Teach Them The Way By Which The Phone Could Be Repaired But They Only Listen To Me And Did Nothing, They Were Behaving Like A Beginner In Repairing Phone,
They Didn't Know That The Phone Can Also Be Reapired During Switched Off.
Now I Have To Wait For 7 Days, So Guys Flash Anything Carefully Otherwise You Will Face The Same Situation.
Thanks
Well I guess I won't unlock my device... To be honest I have no reason to do so. The phone is running great and I have adguard and removed all the apps I don't like using adb.

hi
does anyone find a solution for this?

Well there is now a way to bypass the need for an authorized account, if you device is unbricked. Basically if you flash this before you brick your phone, it allows you to use sp flash to unbrick it without authorized account.

This is only for unbricked devices.... As I stated. If your device was already bricked it won't help you.
I also faced this problem... I used paid service to unbrick it... I must pay 35USD for the service.. but just wait.. If it works I will post here again. I bricked my phone when flashed anti brick on Android 10.. I forgot downgrade it to Android 9

Did you try to use MiFlash tool? If you don´t want to use test point then probably you could enter to EDL using hardware buttons, in other Xiaomi devices that I owned the combination key was keeping pressed both volume buttons at same time (it´s an accuracy timing move) that you connect with PC, open device manager in windows and see if device is detected under Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008, install first the proper drivers https://www.themefoxx.com/2018/07/qualcomm-hs-usb-qdloader-9008-driver.html

Any errors on screen or something?..or just black screen nothing else?
I cannot enter fastboot or recovery mode and the only way is EDL, but when installing ask for the authorized account, my question is if it can be installed by EDL without an account

Question Downgrade from Pixel 5 Port

So I wanted to try out the A12. I really like it, but the ROM makes it unenjoyable. Slow speeds, stutter, lag, delay in actions like: locking the screen, volume control.
I want to ask if I need to do something special to downgrade or I can just simply flash the device? (Wanting to flash Pixel Experience)

Just flash the latest stable release of your MIUI build thru fastboot with miflash and you are set.
Dont attempt to flash anything via TWRP or any other method, or you will brick your phone.
Also, "DO NOT LOCK YOUR BOOTLOADER".

Thank you very much for your help!
I want to also ask why is my MiFlash "flashing" the phone in 0 or 1 second. I know that it does not flash the phone.

Some questions to understand the situation...
Is the usb debugging option enabled in the developer settings of the phone?
Are the phone drivers installed correctly on the pc?
Have you tried to restart the pc after installing miflash and drivers?
Have you tried to start miflash as administrator?
Usb Debugging is enabled
I didn't install any drivers, since I didn't see it was required
The PC has been restarted since, Yes.
I didn't try it yet.

I have found out, that the same drivers are also included in Mi Flash, and that you just need to boot Windows with Driver Signature Enforcement disabled to be able to install all the drivers.

Disconnect phone from PC and reboot Fastboot Mode, then re-connect to PC.
This is because, after an initiated Flash, Fastboot Mode may not accept any more input.
Also make sure to not reboot Fastboot Mode while phone is already connected to PC. You need to connect after you rebooted Fastboot.
This sounds weird, but you can also try using a different PC. Mi Flash is stubborn.
You can also try putting the ROM-folder directly to C:/.
Mi Flash doesn't like spaces in folder-names, and although you don't have any spaces I would still do it... Mi Flash's errors are unpredictable.
And yeah, like RollDload said, try using a different USB port
or try this: https://www.droidwin.com/unbrick-poco-f3/
this was te only way to get my F3 back.

Question Bricked Mi PAD 5 PRO CN

Hello, i tried helping my grandmother by installing the global rom on her Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 Pro WIFI, however as it didn't work i tried forcing the rom onto it by flashing it manually using fastboot, after this i am not able to power it on, or reach fastboot. It's just a black screen it doesn't matter how long you hold the power key it's just completely black.. Is there something i can do???? Or is it completely destroyed?
Global ROM is not available for PRO version. Probably you flashed a wrong one. Try flashing back the CN one matches your model.

Hello, yes same as me. The tablet are in the 9008 edl state when you put it on your computer. there are many flashing tools out there, the problem are the flash authentification from xiaomis side. i prepared a empty pc with windows 10 and loaded the last fastboot image. then i got a telegram contact from a russian guy who was able to use the xiaomi auth procedure, cost me 30 dollar and 3 days to find out this crap
Xiaomi needs a better way to unbrick its devices instead of Authorized Mi Accounts
Xiaomi has locked down the EDL mode on all of its devices, making it nigh impossible to unbrick a device without an Authorized Mi Account. Read on for more!

It's just a black screen it doesn't matter how long you hold the power key it's just completely black.. Is there something i can do???? Or is it completely destroyed?

When it's plugged into the PC, is it recognised with "fastboot devices" or "adb devices"?
If it is you should be able to wipe with "fastboot -w" and start again.
Google detailed instructions.

Unfortunately no, i do not get any response from fastboot whatsoever, there's no device detection in either fastboot or device manager. I even tried on my laptop which is brand new still no sign of life

Hello, yes same as me. The tablet are in the 9008 edl state when you put it on your computer. there are many flashing tools out there, the problem are the flash authentification from xiaomis side. i prepared a empty pc with windows 10 and loaded the last fastboot image. then i got a telegram contact from a russian guy who was able to use the xiaomi auth procedure, cost me 30 dollar and 3 days to find out this crap

Unfortunately any cable/pc i try i get the same result, i'm debating wether i should just get a new one for her with global rom instead

Don't give up yet!
Charge the tablet with another cable that you know works.
Make sure that you have the most up to date version of Platform Tools.
Make sure that when you're in the Command Prompt that you are in the Platform Tools folder.
Check connections with another device....

Have you got the most up to date version of Platform-tools installed and are you checking the connection from a CMD prompt in that Platform-tools folder?

Could you please link me one of those? I'm over in the EU so maybe they'll be fairly easy to find?
