Fake brick - Redmi Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion

Fake brick: After modifying the boot system or root system, the system will be damaged at boot time, or the system cannot be restarted after repeated reboots.
In the fast boot mode, use the adb-fastboot tool to refresh vbmeta.img (which can be the official original file or a modified version)
Note: It is required that the adb-fastboot tool must support these parameters. Use the fastboot tool from the one-click flash tool I released.

Did you extract your fastboot rom twice? you need to extract the fastboot rom[can be found here] twice to flash via mi flash.If that doesn't work follow this:
Assuming your bootloader is unlocked then boot device in fastboot mode and connect to PC. Make sure you have minimal ADB and fastboot installed in PC. Move vbmeta.img file from the fastboot file you have(it's inside the images folder) to the adb and fastboot folder. Then flash using this command:
Code:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
if that does not work then type:
Code:
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
after flashing vbmeta flash recovery.
However if your bootloader is not unlocked you need to visit service center.

i cannot boot a gsi, always bootloop

so I've been trying to install a gsi for 5+ hours, I can never even get to the system boot animation. I've used permissiver, disable dm-verity, I've tried phh, erfans miui, oneui, oos, but cant get to the bootanimation. here are the steps i followed:
1. format
2. flash lineageos
3. wipe cache, dalvik, system, data
4 flash system.img gsi to system
5. flash permissiver and disable dmverity
6. reboot system
7. I get a redmi logo for 4 seconds, a black screen for 1 second and it keeps looping.

pls elaborate, do i need to backup my current vendor, and then restore after installing the system.img?
I don't know why you have process steps like above, but basically the steps should be ( tested and used by me and all 2k members of my grp ) :
1st, you should be on stock, because GSI has only System images, and for a device to work, it need more than just a System images.
Boot into system, using adb reboot bootloader to get into bootloader mode ( or you can use hard keys, its up to you ). Execute these command in correct order :
fastboot devices ( check if device is connected )
fastboot reboot fastboot
fastboot --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img ( remember to use patched vbmeta.img )
fastboot erase system
fastboot flash system system.img ( change to gsi's image file name )
fastboot -w
fastboot reboot bootloader
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot reboot
It may depends on what kind of device u have, but basically it should be like this. Try and feedback.

Question Magisk install stuck on fastboot

Hey everybody.
So I've recently got this Redmi Note 8 (2021) and figured I'd root it.
After the week of waiting to unlock the bootloader, I did the next step to install Magisk.
Due to the lack of custom recovery, I patch the bootimage, and flash it with fastboot.
However after this, the phone is stuck on fastboot, so I guess something is missing.
I also tried the canary versions, but no success yet.
Did anybody succesfully instal Magisk on this phone? Or some other type of root?
I'll just answer my own question here.
Android 11 MIUI devices need enabled verification in boot.img AVBv2 signature​
This pull request will fix it (for me): https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/pull/4975
Trying the vvb alpha worked for me.
You should flash first vbmeta.img with this command:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
Then flash the previously modified boot image with Magisk:
fastboot flash boot boot.img

I heard about this vbmeta at several occasions, but I haven't found a proper resource or download location for it.
How do I create or download a patched vbmeta?
Other than that, the solution I posted does work for rooting my device. But I think flashing vbmeta might open some options up for me like a custom recovery.

Hi.
when ich put that command i became that error:
C:\adb\fastboot.exe: unknown option -- disable-verity
sorry, i made a mistake. got it now
hello can you help me to root
Sure.
Install the newest magisk.
First unlock the bootloader, then patch a boot image with magisk, and flash it to your boot partition with fastboot.

Question Disable verity command not working

Hello everyone, I am trying to root my pixel 6 pro, I've unlocked bootloader, but trying to disable verity isn't working, I entered fastboot flash vbmeta --disable-verity --disable-verification and drage the file there but it doesn't work. Any suggestions?
We need more information on what "not working" means. Does it not change anything? Is there any errors?
Also, I believe it is fastboot flash vbmeta.img vbmeta --disable-verity --disable-verification
Replace vbmeta.img with the complete path to your vbmeta file
Update your platform tools. These commands won't work on older fastboot
like drnizeguy said, you need to download the latest platform tools... pretty sure thats your issue
This is no longer needed.

More specifically, it's no longer needed if you're using Magisk canary 23016.

Spoiler: this
To disable AVB via fastboot, grab the vbmeta image from the ROM you are on, and flash it with the following command:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
can anyone help me to find the the vbmeta ( i am on MIUI Global 12.5.1.0).
Download your stock rom. You will find many websites in the internet. Download according to your miui version & device codename.
Then extract the zip file. Copy vbmeta.img to platform tools. Open cmd there and execute that command.
You could use an empty vbmeta.img directly from google (here), i used on my tablet not on the F3.
