Phone can't connect to pc, bricked - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi users, recently I wanted to go back form miui pie to oreo using this thread : https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5-pro/help/how-to-revert-miui-10-pie-to-miui-10-t3940244
I had some problems with flashing, phone got disconnected from pc during fastboot flashing (loose cable) and after reconnecting I couldn't flash anything so I restarted the phone. Now all I've got is black screen (the backlight works but I can't see anything) I can restart the phone when holding power button and doing the combination of power up and vol+, but it's the same. If I connect the phone to pc in this conditon nothing happens, I can't hear any sound indicating that phone is connected, nothing in device manager, I even disconnected the battery and tried the edl pins but it's the same result, pretty weird. Can anyone give me any hint?

Yeah, but the point is, you can connect to pc and flash things and I can't do anything, I suspect my computer fried usb board or something on the motherboard bc it's impossible I can't get qualcomm hs-usb loader 9008.
As it turns out, after rebooting the pc, it doesn't boot anymore. Phone doesn't work and pc. Coincidence? formatting pc was needed (pc works now), could it be a virus or my power supply simply gave too much voltage to the usb? I was doing everything during the storm, y'know, thunders.. I don't know anymore, I tried even connecting to a different pc and the result is the same. I can't do anything on my phone, could it be broken usb board?
EDIT: It connects now in edl, I was shorting the pins incorrectly (can't touch the ground [shielding] while shorting the pins). Pls close this thread.

Dead Lg G3

So I bought a used G3 knowing about the issue it had; it didn't boot. I thought I could find a workaround to this but the phone doesn't boot, doesn't enter recovery or download mode. All the info I have is that when I take off the battery the pc sees it as an unknown device, while it's connected I press the power button for several seconds and it disconnects from the pc, reconnects after several more seconds of pressing the power button. Screen remains dead. Seller told me he had a perfectly working phone before he tried to root it and it never turned on again. One more indication is that the LED notification only flashed red a few times when I connected it to the wall charger and that was it. No LED working after that. I'm open to any suggestions though I guess I'm here for someone to tell me there's no hope reviving the device. Thanks in advance!
Same proble with mine but i bricked mines when update to lollipop and never turn on again . still waiting to some one help to revive my LG
If I come across any solution I'll post it here. In the meantime I've tried the following method on a freshly formatted laptop and I still get "Unknown Device" in Device Manager..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
same here
same problem, someone told me that if was the board or something like that and that it only can be fixed with a complete replacement of this, also, that it could be fixed with linux using comands to install .APK or .TOT.
linux sometimes sees it as Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM QHSUSB_BULK, using a virtual machine of linux ubuntu, windows 8.1 sees it as unknow device
LG dead since 3 months ago.................. i wasnt using the phone at all when this happended so........... :crying:

I tried using a boot usb drive to see if ubuntu saw the device but it didn't. Maybe there's some things needed that I didn't do. The thing I don't understand the most is why do windows see it as an unknown device only with the battery out while if I connect the G3 with the battery on, it doesn't show anything on device manager..

Hi there.
Please check these 2 threads out and see if any of it will help you. The one for the G2 can also be used for G3.
Here are the links:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/unbrick-lg-g3-qhsusbbulk-qualcomm-9008-t3072091 With this technique you would have to find the software online somewhere but this method does revive dead G3 with these symptoms.

If I helped somehow, hit the THANKS button.
Good luck!
The thing is I can only get the device to be recognized as an Unknown Device in Device Manager and only with its battery out. If I keep 'volume up' pressed nothing happens, it's only shown after I simply connect the USB cable and it pops up after 10 seconds or so. It's very consistent in the way it behaves..
A small update, sometimes when I pull and put the battery again, I connect the phone to a pc while holding down vol- and the pc makes the connected usb sound while the phone led is blinking red for a couple of minutes, then it stops. That's about all there is concerning the phone giving signs of life..

Oneplus 3 just died out of no where

So i was using my phone and decided to restart it after updating my adaway files but my phone never turned back on. The two press the power button screens did not show up either. I tried to uses the MSMdownload tool since i thought my phone was somehow bricked but that didnt work either, it just kept restarting the download process after everything was completed. my computer makes a sound when its connected and it connects correctly as a quallcomm 9008 device but even after all this nothing is working. has anyone experienced something like this or does anyone have any advice?
did you try to long press both power button and vol up ...you should feel a vibration...
maybe it's not turned of maybe it's error causing the screen to be off... also is there any heat?
Which method of the unbrick tool did you use? First or second? If the first, then maybe you should give the second also a try.

I've tried everything and I used th me second method yet nothing happened. I can see my phone get recognized by the computer and get listed on the MSN device list yet nothing happens after it finishes the process. After the green line shows up telling me that it's completed everything the process restarts writhing a few minutes unless I unplug it. No vibration no nothing the phone just died on me after I restarted it .
Try doing MSM on a different PC with all drivers installed , hope it helps
Try to repeat flashing again, there is no other way. Use method 2only. Extract tool again and try flash.
When I was used Xperia Z1, I bricked my phone with a soft brick. So I installed driver in my PC and flash Kernel though FASTBOOT(ADB) either it's not show Device in my PC (I show just "Unknown Device").
After that my phone can connect to my PC again (Now It shown C9303 or something that meant it know it's a phone).
So I can flash by Flashtools again. Soft brick is not scary as Hard brick, you'll find some way to bring it back easily.
Hope this help!
PS. Bricked Phone is WEAK in Battery, always connect it with charger.

Zuk Z2 plus bricked and unable to flash

Today I tried to flash ZUI ROM using MI flash tool, but in the middle of the process there was some USB disconnection error. So, the phone stopped responding from then. That's it. IT WAS DEAD.
The phone then vibrates for a second and stops and then again vibrates, light blinks and vibrates, stops.
Press any button continuously nothing happens. Just vibrate, blink and repeat.
I assume it is hard bricked now. It is not detecting in my laptop. There is nothing in Device Manager too. ZUK driver was previously installed.
Can you tell me what to do now? Is there any solution apart from solution mentioned here https://zukfans.eu/community/thread...-from-hard-brick-state-9008-mode-easily.3504/
I think to try the above too, it has to be detected somewhere in Device Manager?
I don't want to ruin my USB cable for the above method. Is there anything else that can be tried.
No need to disassemble your USB cable. Use a pc/laptop win8. Install all driver and rebrick your device.
Just do the method you mentioned but with a cheap mUSB cable and a type c adapter so you dont destroy your type c cable. I had this same problem, deep flash worked for me.

Water damaged OP3 only shows Tux at boot for 3 seconds (hard brick?)

Hello,
I've got a water damaged OP3 (it was in a pool for about 1min). Now after a few days having it in a pot of rice and cleaning the logic board with 100% isopropanol it finally woke up when pressing power button.
My problem now: It just shows up with a Linux Logo (a small Tux in the middle of the screen) and then turns off after 3 seconds. If I connect it with a charger, the screen persists for the moment.
When pressing + holding volume up button, windows recognizes it as "unknown usb device" and screen stays black.
I only need to access the flash to rescue some of my recent (of course not backed up) data.
What do you suggest? Could I try the unbrick the phone or do these symptons point to a irreversible hardware damage?
Is there a way to read the flash without flashing (or with flashing a minimum set of) stock image?
best regards and thanks in advance!
Contact a software technician

you better avoid doing experiments on op3. Symptoms you have mentioned in your thread, tells that your has been flashed (don't have usb drivers,no os,no firmware). I have faced same problem with my letv le 1s. It is a software problem. Your phone is totally empty. So do contact with any software technician, he uses sp flash tool to wake up the device. Download sp flash tool and follow procedure. If sp flash tool is detecting your device then it means your device hardware is fine.

Have you installed the necessary drivers in Windows for the phone to show up as Qualcom HS-USB..........Loader9008? Otherwise your phone will not be recognised when you do volume press for 10 seconds and connect. Even if it is recognised in this "service" mode, you may be able to unbrick/restore your phone but in the process, the entire phone would be wiped clean. (I know since I have done it).

I've tried to get the phone into EDL Mode (Qualcomm chip), but had no success, phone vibrates and windows recognizes an "unknown usb device" (pressed Volume Up and connected to USB, phone was definitely turned off). But I am not able to get the device recognized as "QHSUSB_BULK" which - afaik - is the prerequisite to install the Qualcomm USB Driver und go on with the unbrick procedure..
I hope anyone got some idea how to get the phone back to life..

Your understanding of the unbrick steps is not correct. Initially the phone will not show up at all or may show up as unknown or something else. It is only when you install the EDL mode drivers and then hold the power button down for 40 seconds and the hold down the volume up button for 10 seconds and connect to PC, will it show up in the EDL mode. Ofcourse you will have to disable the driver signature verification before installing the drivers.
Read the Unbrick Guide again and install the drivers before trying to connect.

Thanks so far, but being a software developer myself I am not a totally beginner. I followed the guide, also read it twice etc.. Also tried another USB cable including the original Oneplus cable.
When plugging it in while pressing Volume Up my Linux laptop reports this:
Code:
[40474.458362] usb usb3-port2: Cannot enable. Maybe the USB cable is bad?
[40475.426231] usb usb3-port2: Cannot enable. Maybe the USB cable is bad?
[40475.426354] usb usb3-port2: attempt power cycle
[40476.710061] usb usb3-port2: Cannot enable. Maybe the USB cable is bad?
[40477.677934] usb usb3-port2: Cannot enable. Maybe the USB cable is bad?
[40477.678051] usb usb3-port2: unable to enumerate USB device
On my windows machine the device manager reports "Windows has stopped the device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)".
Any suggestions? It seems that the device has lost all firmware etc. and there is no EDL left on the device.
EDIT:
With holding Vol(-) and Power I could get rid of the Tux Penguin and enter fastboot and recovery of the phone.. NAND seems to be okay, can decrypt my internal storage.. The USB port doesn't work in recovery (same error like I had with the EDL mode, unknown device)..
I hope I can now charge the battery a bit and recovery my data...
Thanks so far guys..

Sorry if I had sounded condescending, but I had no way of knowing your level of expertise.
Best of luck for restoring your phone or for saving the data.

No need to worry.. Of course, you couldn't know and there are a lot of people asking dump questions..
My phone is back a life, I guess the data transfer via USB is not working anymore, charging works although I needed to take my Oneplus One's battery (identical connector, just need to take care of the pin layout [+/-]) because my OP3 battery is pretty low and I don't know if I can reactivate it.. It has about 3,4V at the moment and charges very slow..
Finally, if anyone else faces this issue and can't boot his phone:
Try different button combinations and keep holding the buttons several seconds/minutes..

Oneplus 5t black screen unbricktool doesnt seem to work

I've got a dead oneplus 5t from my son. It was not charging anymore.. So I've replaced charging cable and battery.. Seemed to work it was charging... However it doesn't boot... No logo screen screen stays black/blank.
Tried several suggestions on this forum to get into recovery mode, fastboot mode... But still nothing. Only vibrating works after a few seconds.
So tried to unbrick with OP5T_Unbrick_tool_dumpling_43_J.40_181105(OOS.5.1.7) and the qualcomdrivers..
I was able to install the drivers and I see they are installed in devicemanagement.. and an empty folder create for oneplus.
I charged the phone all night and was able to download the upgrade. It then says download complete and I tried to restart the phone..
Still just vibrating but nothing happens.. Seems like everything has vanished from the phone, no recovery, no bootloader, no files.
So how to proceed to get all the stuff on the phone? And maybe the displayscreen is dead, but how can I tell?
Also tried the SMT upgrade. Strange thing is the device and com port are seen in devicemanagement and active when I connect without volume up, but cannot start because it says When I try to use smt mode the program says: "This COM port is disable by user". With volume button up pressed and then connect, ledlight turns green but the qualcomdevice is grayed out in devicemanagement and it says waiting for device..
Any help is welcome. I am a noob in how to proceed on the phone however I have an IT background.
Spent already so many time figuring out .. maybe it's effortless and its for the trashbin.
Thanks in advance
SOLVED
I opened the phone again loosened all those tiny connections to battery, screen,charger, mainboard and re-attached them.. Somehow a connection seemed to be fitting allright as yI looked at it, but apparently wasn't :good:
