Firts of all I give you a summary of what happened:
- Bought the Mi Mix 2 at Gearbest
- Either it came with the Global Beta Rom installed or I did it (don't know it anymore )
- Used the phone for several month with Global Beta
- Had some Bugs an wanted to change to Global Stable, that was when the problems began
- Downloaded the Global Stable ROM from Miui Site and installed it via the Update-App in Miui
- After installing (no Errors displayed) the phone booted up and had to activate the device
- After that I had to select Language and Region; As Region only China was selectable and after selecting it I got the boot loop
So I knew I installed ROMs via fastboot on my previous devices and tried that. But it is written that the Bootloader has to be unlocked.
I can't unlock the bootloader, because USB Debugging wasn't enabled and I did not connect the Phone to the Mi Developer Account .
So I am stuck now:
- Boot-Up => Bootlopp
- Fastboot flashing => locked Bootloader
- Unlocking Bootloader => Dev-Account not linked
Is there anythin i can do to recover the phone?
And I was wondering what have I done wrong that I got into the bootloop? As global bet was installed I thought I would be safe to go to Global Stable...
Is there anyone that can help me with this problem?
Do you need more information?
It would be great to know if there is a way to recover the phone or if it is bricked.
I think u have locked bootloader over again.Try to unlock it again and repeat the procedure

Thanks for your answer!
The problem is I can't unlock the bootloader, because I didn't bind the phone in the dev settings to my Mi-Account and after flashing and resetting the debug-mode isn't active either.

I still cant understand how u got stuck there ? sorry dude I hope somebody here will help u asap
I used to solve this problem by using MI FLASH. You can download the file,global or chinese version of the rom file,but the file must be in the fomat img Which can be downloaded from the official forum and then flash via miflash This is probably not a problem. Good luck.
If you have adb enabled, it's fixable easily with available tools. If not, you need to either disassemble the phone (and boot with contact points to force bootloader unlocked), or take it to a xiaomi store in HK or China (they can request Xiaomi CN to make a custom firmware for your device which can unlock bootloader without normal permissions - I had to do this for my Mi Mix 2 Special Edition, which can't really be disassembled without breaking the screen).
Don,t be that complicated.The mi flash tool can be used even if your device is stuck.but the flash rom file must be an img file. Forum of xiaomi He has to give and use mi flash tool latest version Compatible with windows.At least not support window xp. You try to study. It is easy to solve.But you will choose

I attached a sreenshot of the error I get in Mi Flash Tool.
The first time I didn't pass the same, but when I changed the new file,it passed. You try to change the file or use the Chainese file.
The file may not be complete.try again
I downloaded the chinese stable version to test. Now I do get another error when I want to flash.

At miflash status,it is already said that it cannot be deleted in lock status.
If you follow the steps that I have already recommended, do not go through. Would have to ask for help from xiaomi, let him unlock the wheel, which you must tell him why he will help You probably won't travel on your own because the mimix2 price is only $ 300.
Search "Unbrick Mi Mix 2 or EDL mode Mi Mix 2 at Google.

Hello sir
I have been trying to unlock bootloader of my mi max(qualcomm indian version) for some time. I already got the permission to unlock bootloader.
But i am not able to unlock it because of drivers problem. my device is not getting detected in MI UNLOCK TOOL although it is being detected in MI FLASH TOOL. What should i do please help me .. i am using the latest tools and latest drivers in my pc. Also i tried installing new windows 10 in both my pc and laptop but the same problem persists.
Thanks in advance..
Were you able to unlock bootloader ??
If yes then flash recovery twrp
Then
Root either using magisk 14.3.zip or supersu 2.82.
same problem

Sir, the process given to unlock bootloader on Mi.com or else supporting websites are not working at all.
How can we proceed further if this not happening ?

Wait for 3-4 day after receiving code from xiaomi.
As there servers are updated after 3-4 days. Sometimes may take more than a week..
Unlocking is different and rooting is different. Do not attempt to root without unlocking bootloader.

You should have selected CLEAN ALL only on miflash tool. Only fix is to unlock bootloader again. If it doesnt work then flash china rom thru edl. You can try to flash china fastboot rom with locked bootloader w/ mi assistant. Check my thread.

Also what miui 10 version did you flash? Anti rollback protection is now enabled for oreo devices.

thanks for reply, i think i selected clean all, if i'm not wrong.
2nd) i read edl doesnt work on redmi note 5 pro
3rd) ok i'll check your thread for that mi assistant method. if you're talking about mi pc suite method then that didnt work. after selecting zip file it gives error and nothing happens.

you are right. that method does't work. so many people have tried and failed. but i have one method to unlock bootloader instantly. i know someone who has an account through which u can unlock your bootloader isntantly. i bypassed 360hrs using that account.

yeah sure provide the method for that please. it'd be helpful if that unlocks bootloader while mobile is in dead state.

U can't do anything with a dead device.. Dead device meaning hard bricked. Getting parts replaced is the only solution of hard brick device.

Sorry by dead state i mean not working. mobile goes to Fastboot, or mobile's own recovery but i cant boot OS (miui 10) which i flashed) and i cant flash anyother rom because of "Flash xbl error" since bootloader is locked.

Hey there Xda members !
I've been trying to unlock my Whyred since past few weeks, i don't know what I've done wrong but here's what I've done :
1. Opened Mi unlock page to request for bootloader Unlock permission (but there isn't any such thing)
2.it automatically showed Mi unlock tool and I've downloaded it on my computer
3. Installed Mi usb drivers
4. Ran Mi unlock tool and connected my device in fastboot mode ( I've already binded my mi account)
5. Mi unlock tool detected my device and i pressed on unlock anyway
6.and it loaded up to 99% and asked me to try after 360 hrs
7. After about 16 days i reopened mi unlock tool and pressed unlock
8. It loaded up to 99% and said "Unkown error"
Can somebody suggest me a solution.
Please devs.

Ok
Please remove this thread, the problem got solved.
And the solution was?
I've done a factory reset and then again logged in when Mi account and again requested for unlock bootloader and a miracle it unlocked the bootloader. It took me about 40 days to unlock it.
Hi everyone!,
Here's the situation:
RNote 8 Pro has european rom
Decide to flash the global one
Attempt to flash the global version (with "clean all and lock" setting)(which I totally forgot to change)
FlashTool says everything's ok
Device stuck in recovery menu with "This MIUI version can't be installed on this device"
Attempt to unlock phone
FlashTool locked device after attempting to write a rom
I did not activate nor the Unlock status nor usb debugging on phone before
So current state is that I can't install/modify bootloader since phone is locked
Can't unlock the phone since I can't acces to the OS
Any suggestion or what can I do?
yes i did the exact same error, this clean and lock is real crap thing !!!!!!
starting to think xiaomi phones were power users phones, but they are now as locked as apple phone
it was easy in DA/DL and SPFT to flash back and retrieve original state
but now it request an authorized account to flash this....i dont know why they do that, oh yes, for money.....
you buy a phone, but he isnt really your phone.....it always parts of xiaomi...what a shame
many bricked them with anti rollback protection
whats their problem....we do as we want
Start the phone in fastboot mode. Connect it to yr PC using your type c cable. Unlock it using Mi Unlock tool.
Could you fix it?
