Bricked my mi max after flashing twrp, is it dm verity? - Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers

I installed twrp and bricked my mi max. I slid the slider to allow modification.
I get stuck at the mi logo on booting. It's not moving.
I can't even power off the phone. The stuck mi logo is always there.
I managed to roll back to the stock recovery.
Booting into this recovery is still possible but I don't know what to do from there since it cannot see any Tom to flash.
Booting into fast boot is possible, but the phone is not detectable on PC.it doesn't show up in device manager. It was previously detectable, before I flashed twrp through fast boot .
Is there any way to unbrick the phone without losing my internal sd card media?

No way to unbrick without losing media
Your phone is encrypted
Wipe data from twrp and flash any rom of your desire from ex-sdcard
This should unbrick the phone

I assume your device is unlocked, there's no way to unbrick you device without loosing data.
Try this step
1. Remove your battery / unplug battery & replug it again.
2. If can enter fastboot mode, and type this command on adb
Fastboot device (make sure your device is detected)
Fastboot oem edl ( your device will be blank & become qualcom)
3. If step 3 doesnt work, before connecting to PC. Connect edl pin on motherboard then connect your to PC (detect as qualcom)
4. Run Mi flash & flash your miui ROM, wait untill finish.
5. Try turn on your device.
Hope that help

screwed my memory i think - not hard bricked but what is this? cant boot

after trying unsucessfully many times to get LVM to work I decided to go back to stock oppo recovery. I saw an option to unify memory in the oppo recovery and clicked that. My screen flashed for 30min with no reboot. I shut it down. This could have where it went wrong.
Now I cant boot into any recovery. Just stays stuck on the oppo logo. i DO have fastboot mode though and I CAN execute commands via the terminal/cmd prompt using adb/fastboot.
If I flash twrp, i can see it tries to boot into twrp with a blue flash of a screen but immediately it goes back to the oppo logo and stays there forever.
If I flash oppo recovery again, i can see it tries to go into oppo recovery but then the screen starts flashing bits and pieces of what I can make out as the oppo recovery.
Tried the unbrick method. I assume my memory is messed up because i tried to unify memory via the oppo recovery? I cant seem to do the unbrick method here: http://community.oppo.com/en/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=23067. Tried it with win10 on test mode and cant get his specific driver names to work/show up. Shows up on mine as Marshall London boot loader or Android bootloader.
Also used the repartition tool repair scripts: http://community.oppo.com/en/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=20271&extra=. That did nothing. Black screen for about 1hr. Still have fastboot right now though. Still doing the same thing.
Any way to solve this? Thanks in advance to the pros at XDA!
THIS WORKED!! It took me very long to figure this out!!
http://community.oppo.com/en/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=23067&extra=&page=1
For that tutorial i had to deviate from the instructions ironically, if i held down power + up, it would take me to fastboot and i could NOT install the right drivers and it would come up as Marshall London Device (windows 10 with TESTSIGNING turned on). All I had to do was just plug into usb and NOT press or hold any buttons on the phone. Then it showed up as QHSUSB_BULK in device manager and I can proceed with this tutorial.

Stuck on the AP Fastboot Flash mode

Hey guys, My moto Z Play died on me, and it doesn't budge from the AP Fastboot Flash Mode.
I can do the selections using the volume keys but nothing happens when I try to select one of the mode, including the Start, Recovery Mode, QCOM, Bootloader logs. It just gets stuck there until I restart the phone again to this mode using the power and volume down keys.
Only option that works in here is the restart bootloader option which pushes it back to the same screen.
The problem here is I the USB debugging was not enabled before this happened, so I am not able to detect the phone in either the Adb fastboot or in RSD lite.
Looks like its been hardbricked or the internal storage has been corrupted.
Any suggesstions to be able to flash the stock firmware to my phone.
PS: Its a verizon phone.
thanks

The question is what did you do to the Verizon "unlocked bootlader" phone to get you to this point?

Update MSMDownload Tool with new OxygenOS 5

Hi,
my OnePlus3 is dead.
Nothing to see on screen, no vibration by pushing the power button.
Tried to unbrick it with UnbrickToolMini. It startet one last time after hours, but failed to boot because some parts ar missing now, system failed, recovery failed, boot failed.
I do not dare to use UnbrickToolFull from June 2016 with OxygenOS 3.1.3, because it is now OxygenOS5.
Is it possible to exchange the firmware in MSMDownload Tool ?
There ist some data on the phone I do not want to lose.
Or is there any other possibility to flash the firmware without data wipe?
Thank you!
Best regards,
Nicole
I doubt that since the userdata partition will be wiped on your phone, no matter what the files in the MSM Download tool.
The os version is irrilevant, the tool doesn't just flash an OS, it will return the device to factory status, so i dont think ita a problem using it
Ok, I have done that, but with the mini ubrick tool I can not boot into recovery, the phone goes off after selecting recovery mode.
The full unbrick tool removed the data, although the guide says "remove all userdata* from rawprogram*"...
But the phone gets booted sometimes. Then touch is not working anymore. And if I connect it to to the pc, it turns off or reboot into a bootloop.
Most of the time it does not turn on. I push the button for hours and the phone goes on only twice.
Any suggestions would be nice!
Thank you!
Best gegards,
Nicole
Use unbrick tool full , boot then download latest OOS 5.0 and put in internal storage update to latest. I'd done this way.
I used unbrick tool full. If the phone turns on and boots, I can not touch anything on the display, it is not working. And if I connect it to the pc, it turns off or reboot into a bootloop.
So how should I copy the update to the phone?!
I do not understand why the phone is rarely turn on...
Makes me crazy. Never again a OnePlus!
Download again the full unbrick guide and flash again. If it's not working your phone have hardware problem.

Stuck on redmi note 8T logo (How to recover personal files in internal storage? - Bootloader closed)

After turning off phone with battery 1%, it was charged normally.
Later at turning phone on it got stuck on logo and didnt boot.
Redmi note 8T (two years old, worked always very well) , factory miui 10, Android 9... So bootloader closed and debugging USB disabled.
Recovery mode: pressing reboot to system doesnt work, stuck again on logo.
Fastboot works only, after 10-15 minutes on this mode phone turns automatically off.
Dont wanna select wipe on recovery, as I wanna recover personal files on internal phone storage.
Phone serial number is recognized by Linux PC, and possible to boot phone vía fastboot and terminal commands, but does the same behaviour.
The question:
IS IT POSSIBLE TO RECOVER PERSONAL DATA (without wiping all)?
If Yes... What way? And what way on Linux PC?

a phone with a locked bootloader is a wall
and even if you manage to recover your files they will be encrypted
You mean that even though internal memory were extracted and analyzed... data could not be read for being Android 9 encrypted?
So it's not worth to take it to service center...

i don't think so, they will try reinstalling miui which you can do your self ...
With the help of XiaoMiTool V2 (unofficial) compatible with Linux I fixed the brick. It wiped all the internal memory but the flash of stock willow fixed the soft brick.
There's a small mistake on the list of phones of the tool... You must choose Redmi 8T. And the phone was reset as new from factory. Miui 11 now.
This tool was developed by an Italian and allows to flash stock rom with a lock bootloader and usb debugging disabled.
In case it may help someone with same issue. Just need a computer and connect to phone via usb cable on fastboot mode. Of course ADB & Fastboot tools must be installed on pc.
did you recover the files? or did they get deleted?

Question Stuck in orange state and in bootloop

I tried rooting my phone so I unlocked the bootloader, installed magisk to internal storage, booted twrp and installed the image in twrp. But then I wanted to install magisk but I couldnt find the file anywhere on my device. I decided to reboot to maybe download it again and go back into twrp to install it. But then I saw the message that my phone is in orange state and will boot in 5 seconds but it goes back to the "bootloader"? or to twrp. Fastboot and Recovery mode result in just looping back. And the factory reset in twrp doesn't work either. I am pretty sure I need to reinstall the original rom again but I have no idea how to. And msmDownloadTool can't find my phone (It does show up on my pc so it is connected). Any help is very much appreciated!! I really need my phone back actually

Re-install the latest Qualcomm driver's! After that start the MSM tool and use TWRP to reboot to edl mode.
Okay I will try that, should msmdownloadtool be able to see my phone when it is in the twrp screen tho?

Ah okay, sorry I am very new to this, I did reboot to EDL and it gave the orange state error and again went to the screen where I can select: "start", "Power Off", "Recovery mode", "restart bootloader", etc. I also did download those drivers again and restarted my pc. MSM still wont find my phone sadly

Do you see in the bottom right corner of PC a watermark that says test mode? Also when you reboot to edl mode from TWRP, you have to click start button in MSM BEFORE REBOOTING TO EDL...

No I do not see any watermark, ah also I didn't know that but when I just tried doing that my phone went black for about 15 seconds and then went back to the same screen it has been going to
also my phone is plugged in and It does make a sound when plugging in. I use MSM version V5.1.89 btw
EDIT: I just tried again with version V5.1.77 and now it says download complete and it looks as if the phone is starting up!! I am so so so thankfull for your help because I just bought this phone today.
YES THANK YOU MY PHONE IS WORKING AGAIN!

No watermark most likely means drivers are not properly installed. You can check by having device manager open and watch the ports node. Port node for phone should show 9008 at the end when you boot into EDL mode. Also make sure you have the correct MSM tool for your model and region from here,
OP9Pro - Repository of MSM Unbrick Tools (TMO, EU, GLO, IN)
By using these tools, you accept full responsibility for your actions. Your warranty is void should you run any of these utilities without OnePlus support present. I am not responsible for bricks, fires, nuclear war, etc. If you modified any...

You must see the test mode watermark, reboot PC after disabling driver signing, reboot PC after each driver installation.
This is what you should see in the bottom right corner....
