Hi
After updating to EMUI 8.0 from this tutorial everything went well. Got Oreo working fine, so started to root with magisk = Ok; Xposed=Nok... Bootloop.
First - clean Data and Cache+Dalvik, still Bootloop
Entered to fastboot and tried to flash this file to rollback to 8.0, but...
I nottest that it said on the screen:
Bootloader UNLOCKED (in RED) and FRP Locked (In Green)
Confusing colors, cause it seems that i can't flash anything with unlocking the FRP... but i don´t have access the the system....
Also cant format System partition cause its read only, unable to flash other recovery files thought fastboot....
It s a f*cking MESS....
Can anyone please advice on this?
What can i do to recover this piece of sh*t??
Please........
Thank you, people

Lastly:
Thank YOU!!!
Long story short, i've solved it but have to pay for it.
Went to HUAWEI Service Center here in Portugal, and they told me that they couldn't do anything since the phone was not marketed for Europe (??????) [ASS Os]
I've discovered this service, and as with any other service online, i get suspicious for a while, asked a lot of questions and decided:
Bought a Month Pass for 50 EUD (45 Euros), and voila, in the first try unbricked the phone
Now i have the rest of the month to play with it...
Thanks for the people of FunkyHuawei for the kind attention (mostly pacience) they had with me.
I recommend it :good::good::good::good::good:

Do you still have access to twrp?
It could be only hope.
I had frp lock problem after unlocking bootloader. I had hit reset to default setting while inside developer options menu. That flipped the oem unlock switch.
I had to use twrp to flash back the stock boot.img and stock recovery.img then i was able to oem relock (my code).
And boot into room and reflip oem unlock toggle
thanks for replying
Not sure that i can access TWRP cause every time i force the recovery it appears the EMUI recovery (probably the NoCheck version that i used to update to Oreo)
Isn't it possible to reverte back to EMUI 5.1? Maybe with the 'dload' methode??
Is there any way to reset/unlock FRP from fastboot? I tried to relock bootloader with my own key but got an error (can't remember now what...)
I can't access the ROM itself...
This was because i installed Xposed....
If i could access TWRP again, perhaps i could delete the xposed files (in a recovery with the system as read-only)...
But i just dont know what to look for....
In older systems i knew that was the app_process file... Now i just dont know....
Thanks again for your reply!

If you tried to install exposed from twrp, it should still be there
try dload method with emui 5 rom package, it may downgrade, no harm in trying.

Please can you explain that in detail?
Cause that might be the only way to save this (#"))&%&(/)&....
So, here is my situation:
- No TWRP access (recovery_ramdisk might be empty or damage... hopefully just empty)
- Bootloader Unlocked but FRP Locked
- eRecovery only presents 3 choices: Shutdown, Reboot and "Download latest version and recovery"*
- The System it self it's messed up after trying to install xposed.... just when its about to start, it reboots...
So.......
Still 3 ways that i can resolv this:
1 - the dload method (already tried, it updates until 5%, then error:" Install update failed" (Use the update.app file from the OTA, FullOTA, just the app file, all files in the update.zip... ) Not sure if i'm missing the right app file or if the eRecovery (maybe the NoCkeck version used to update initially) is screwed-up...
2 - Unlocking the FRP (Factory Reset Protection) this means that the "Allow OEM unlocking" is Off
Hopping to find a way to unlock it via fastboot
3 - The *Download latest version and recovery method allows to connect to wifi and download the firmware...
Not much sucess, but i know that i'm missing something (just dont know what it is...)
It seems that the router requires a certain configuration which i have no idea....
Suggestions are always welcome!
Thanks

What I'm trying to understand , is how were you trying to install exposed.
I assume it was with twrp, no.

theres not much to understand there....
i flashed it with twrp and the phone never booted again...
yes, had access to the twrp for a while, but then, trying to run again the update process to flash the wrong recovery to recovery_ramdisk partition.... (another shot in the foot)
now i dont have twrp anymore and i'm unable to flash it cause th frp lock keeps telling thats not allowed...
the most clean way to solve this is to erase/unlock the FRP without accessing the ROM...
I'm already thinking about buy some credits with one of those online services that might unlock it...
Can you suggest to me some serious and honest services?
I'm desperate....

Ok, I see
Didn't know you where 2 or 3 miss- steps past a failed exposed install.
I have no idea which service to recommend.
Hi,
Hope OP got his solution.

Honorable mod, I guess this thread belongs to Honor 7X Q&A forum. Please relocate.

you cant downgrade from emui 8 you need to extract update.app of emui 8 an flash the ramdisk boot img so it will boot for that you need to download indian firmware mannual update given in other forum and extract the zip file update22 and data file extract both zip files and download the multi tool version 8 install all drivers boot your phone into bootloader now go to multi tool and click on unbreak and open huawie update extractor and extract update.app of data or update 22 make sure to check the mark on top emui 8 and when you click on update make sure to uncheck the verify the headder for that you go to settings in extracting update and follow the procedure of flashing for that you can google how to use multi tool i cant explain more i am not a developer but i phase the same problem and i got fixed hope i helped you

Tried that but the only response that fastboot gives me is "Command not allowed" .
I just can´t flash anything in fastboot. I think i can thought adb shell dd (at least that how i manage to screw twrp partition), but i just can´t get ADB connection.
Just got fastboot connection with HiSuite drivers...
How can i get ADB access? It just installs an USB Storage Device...
Also i can try update via fastboot but it saying that it misses android-info.txt file.... whatever that means...
If i could boot once into the ROM, i would enable "Allow OEM Unlocking" and do exactly that.... btut i junt can´t... not yet...

That was my plan... but even that is screwed-up.....
Here is my Recovery Status, without the possibility to flash any img via fastboot:
recovery_ramdisk (empty or in-error)
erecovery_ramdisk ( BND-RECOVERY-NoCheck.img flashed to update into EMUI 8.0)
With the software now, whats failling me is the ****ing recovery, that flash only 5% before it shows this error : "Install update failed!"
Dont have ADB support, maybe because i dont have the "USB Debbuging" option enable...
It seems that i will spend 15 euros to unlock this &%/())(/&%$######()/=?(/%&$#
Just thought I'd post here in case you are still in need. I believe that there are two different recovery modes - one that is triggered by holding power, up vol, and down vol, and another that is triggered by holding just power and up vol. Are you sure twrp is gone? I thought I had lost twrp when in fact it was in the other recovery.

Not even that i can do....
Let's update:
State
OS: Bootloop
System: No "recovery_ramdisk" partition (no stock / no twrp)
Bootloader: Unlocked
*FRP: Locked
So can't flash in fastboot, *Already got the unlock code for the FRP but without the "recovery_ramdisk" recovery the system wont reset....
(Weird!) No adb access in recovery mode (which would help A LOT....)
The dload method, whatever the update.app only updates until 5% , then error updating...
The eRecovery Wireless method might work, but i just dont know how to do it.
Tried with a usb pen inserted on the router with all the ROMs all together, in separated folders, whatever, no rom detected... there must be a way to do it right... i just dont know how...
Just need one of two things to happend:
Flash the stock recovery - still dont know how to do it...
Fix the bootloop and access the SO Rom - also, without adb access just dont know how...
Out of the box thinking required...
About UPDATE.APP
Can't we make a update.app much like o do it for zip files?
Would it be possible to make um UPDATE.APP just to flash/restore recovery partition?
The updates with zip files must also be inside a dload folder?
About Bootloop and SD Card
Is there a way, using the sd card, to stop the reboot, maybe enable the Safe Mode...
Something that would allowed me to access the Settings...
Any apk, any script that could be loaded from the SD card....
Not an easy plan... i know...
Maybe something very basic and easy is escaping me....

I just read through the fastboot partition from my backup using "strings" to find the available "oem" commands.
I think i found possible solution for you.
careful useing these commands as I do not know for sure if they work and what they do.
Code:
fastboot oem frp-unlock
also not sure about the dashes or underscores.

Hi
Thank you for replying.
Already tried that.... Actually the command should be:
Code:
fastboot oem frp-unlock (unlock frp key)
Bought the unlock code from an online unlock store.
Spent 10 euros. The code is correct cause i got the message that the device will reboot and do a factory reset.
Than it reboots into an error screen, cause i screwed up the "recovery_ramdisk" partition earlier and its not working now. So, no factory reset, no changing the Frp status... Still locked.
Still no flashing img files from recovery... Still got the reply oficial Command Not Allowed...
But:
I'm trying to gain adb access while on eRecovery.
Than i could try to flash the stock recovery with the code dd command. From there i would unlock the Frp with the code and the Factory Reset might be enought to fix the bootloop.
Also the bootloop it self...
I wonder if there's a way to force the boot even with FC errors....
Access to the ROM software would allow me to flash the stock recovery and then make a factory reset, by changing the OEM Unlocking status
Thanks for your reply, maybe you can give me some tips on this 2 ways that i'm exploring right now.
Or some other ways that i haven't consider yet... please....

There is , at this time, no suggestion for you to fix.
Because, you do not tell enough of what you were doing, or did.
I mean. First superSU does not work on updated device(Oreo) . So must be nougat, but you did not say.
Next , removeing superSU , from inside of it's settings, will not erase system.
Your description of connecting to PC with USB and not able to see any system files. Well you cannot see Android system files in this way anyhow. Add to that USB (mtp) does not wokif there is no system I place to run the adb/mtp service.
Well if you mean you uninstalled root/superSU , then tried to restart, and that made the black screen, well this is different completely to what you asked. And this makes sense.
If this is what you need. You just need boot.img, if you were in fact on nougat. Or ramdisk.img, and/or kernel.kmg if it was Oreo.
For l21, I do not have these.

If you have all the needed files, just do this:
1. Boot into TWRP
2. Flash vendor.img, recovery_ramdis.img (Or something similar to that), and system.img
3. Flash them ^^^^ to the required partitions (Partition names to flash to should be self explanatory)
4. Do a factory reset
5. Reboot
Report back please if this works!
I have the exact same problem as OP. When I go into TWRP and mount an img or zip, there is always an error message saying
"Unable to find partition for path '/system' ". /system also doesn't show up anywhere else. . .
I tried your suggestion too but to no avail.
I don't know what to do anymore.
Edit: Now I can’t even get into TWRP after trying these 5 steps. All it shows me is the bootloader screen but with error messages.
“Please update the system again”
And at the bottom of the screen something about the boot.img

If you're talking about my suggestion, then please quote me next time.
Also, are you sure you have the right twrp installed?
When in bootloader mode, connect your device to adb. Does you device get recognized when you type "fastboot devices" ???

Thank you for helping out.
Yes, I tried your suggestion and I used version 3.1.1.0 of TWRP.
Unfortunately it looks like my device is not getting recognized in adb anymore. All I get is either the screen where it says "booting your device now" forever or the white ERROR MODE screen with "Attention! Please update system again.
There are two error messages at the bottom of the screen :
Func NO : 10 (boot image)
Error NO : 2 (load failed)
Now, how do I save myself out of this? It looks like I can't do anything. . .
Edit: correction, it does get recognized in adb in fastboot mode. Can I just flash your suggested TWRP from there?
Edit2: tried to flash the complete_twrp_ramdisk.img in fastboot mode with fastboot flash recovery command. Then I rebooted but instead of TWRP it still shows ERROR MODE

If everything fails, we can still try to send it to a Huawei Center to get fixed. Just don't tell them that you rooted or unlocked your device. I heard that they will then switch out the motherboard for a new one.

After reflashing my old TWRP from fastboot, I can now access TWRP again and /system partition is showing up too. The ERROR MODE screen still shows up when I boot the phone with VOL + and POWER but when I press VOL + - and POWER I load into TWRP

Do you have ADB support on TWRP mode?
If so just use dd command to flash stock boot.img.
Try it by fastboot if you can.
You need to flash stock boot.img because rooting patches boot image and you tried to unroot but were unable to reboot that would replace the patched boot with the stock one.
If i undetstood the issue correctly...
If not, please enlight me...

i trie much of boot.img files but no change
i tried everything but the phone still wont read the system files
dutyyaknow said:
Thank you for helping out.
Yes, I tried your suggestion and I used version 3.1.1.0 of TWRP.
Unfortunately it looks like my device is not getting recognized in adb anymore. All I get is either the screen where it says "booting your device now" forever or the white ERROR MODE screen with "Attention! Please update system again.
There are two error messages at the bottom of the screen :
Func NO : 10 (boot image)
Error NO : 2 (load failed)
Now, how do I save myself out of this? It looks like I can't do anything. . .
Edit: correction, it does get recognized in adb in fastboot mode. Can I just flash your suggested TWRP from there?
Edit2: tried to flash the complete_twrp_ramdisk.img in fastboot mode with fastboot flash recovery command. Then I rebooted but instead of TWRP it still shows ERROR MODE

Have you re-flash with Huawei Multi Tool, but first you must have file update.zip and extract update.app from http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=BND&firmware_page=0

there's maybe can fix your system file
Dear All,
I was trying to install a customer ROM in my Asus Zenfone 5z. I was able to unlock the bootloader using official asus app. Then i managed to install a TWRP recovery. there was some partition issue so i flashed recovery in both partitions. the recovery worked fine and i managed to install the pixel rom. after that i wiped dalvik cach and some other items throgh recovery and restarted the phone.
After restart, it is stuck in bootloader. If i select start, recovery mode or power off, it gets rebooted and come back to bootloader again. Seems like a brick scenario.
So i tried the following:
1. Downloaded AFT tool and tried to flash the latest firmware version.. It gave a FPT error and then error on unable to load into recovery mode
2. Tried to run flashall_aft.cmd in directory containing latest firmware.. it said to internal/external command exists
3. Sideload using adb sideload command.. the error was could not read the file..
I am not sure what i can try next.. could you please help.. The details on bootloader screen are:
Fastboot mode
Product name _ ZS620KL
Bootloader version - WW_user_90.10.138.157
Secure Boot - yes
Active Slot A
Device State Unlocked
Help Required - Soft brick - Stuck in bootloader
Dear All, Would really appreciate if you can help me with this thread..
Thanks

Download qfil,
Scrap fz*.mbn from CSC_8.02 and put to raw file of your interest. Ifu don't do so, it will throw error as that file is required and only available in CSC_eng_8.02 version. Never ever touch any other file in CSC 8.02 , it will make it impossible to run any fastboot and adb command and entering EDL is a bit tricky.
Extract the firmware, make sure to have system,vendor,userdata in root path as if u don't remove last few line of Python extraction code it will be deleted.
Go to TWRP Recovery, and reboot to EDL from there.
select all raw program XML and Patch xml and begin Image download.
Doesn't matter whether anything is accessible or not u get new image of ur choice.
If u get sahara error you are not immediately beginning download as ur phone enters into EDL.
Suggestion: Once u get back image sell the [email protected] quarter of cost as it's impossible to run the device in the way you want. The tools are not supported for open source development. The device is fragile, a little tweak and you lose IMEI,SN and soforth your phone network. This is not a device to temper, if u still do so, you will never come out from situation your stuck now.

I also struck in the fastboot mode, All i have done is flashed android q image from asus official site , worked fine with few bugs, then i thought return to stock stable rom, downloaded image from the same page and tried the procedure given, but i got some error initially and struck in fastboot. Iam able to flash latest firmware by connecting to PC in fastboot, all files are able to flash and after restart, a message is appearing with red exclamatory symbol that my device is no longer boot, its not trustable etc and after few seconds restated to fastboot mode. I have tried this in both active slot A and B. I tried to flash android q image too. same error popping up. and iam struck in fastboot now, no recovery nothing, phone doest even switched off, if i longpress power key, restarts again to fastboot.
I want to try your solution, but iam not so expert in sdk things, i did't understand few points in your reply, can you please elaborate step by step procedure, which tools should i download how should i proceed etc. please iam going nuts wasting time behind this phone. or please refer any guide or website to unbrick my asus zenfone 5z.

UPDATE 2021
The original post was for the first King Kong Mini, for instructions for the King Kong Mini 2 go to page 9 in this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-on-cubot-kingkong-mini.4050815/post-84445303
======================
The Cubot King Kong Mini was released in Q4 2019. It is one of the smallest Android phones on the market with a 4" screen. Like many cheap Mediatek devices, one cannot be sure of how "safe" or "secure" these devices are, so the security/privacy conscious may want to consider installing a custom ROM. Here are the instructions for installing Android AOSP on the Cubot King Kong Mini. Note: I am not responsible for any bricked devices.
Download the Stock Rom from here and SP Flash Tool just in case you need to reinstall Stock. Download a system image, note you need to use an A/B arm32 image with 64 bindings. For example AOSP 9 is here.
This process probably can be done with SP Flash Tool but I wasn't able to manage it due to the disable-verification flag required.
Unzip the stock ROM and reboot the device to bootloader, connect via USB and unlock via:
Code:
sudo fastboot flashing unlock
Note this will erase all data. Then on your computer navigate to the folder with the unzipped ROM (for me was NA_mt6761p_d936p_9101cmp_chuanqi_cc_256gbitp24d3_p_lte_3m-fdd-cs_mul_20191121-210020_songlixin_PC) and type
Code:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
If you do not do this it seems to work without it but then it will bootloop when you try to switch it on. From here on it's standard.
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Unzip the .xz image file you wish to use and type:
Code:
fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img
where SYSTEM is the name of whatever image downloaded.
Root
For root install magisk manager and you have to patch the recovery to get root (not just boot as flashing boot alone doesn't give you root). So in magisk get it to patch you boot and recovery images and then put those on your computer, go to bootloader and use:
Code:
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched_boot.img
fastboot flash recovery magisk_patched_recovery.img
You can read more about magisk from recovery here.
To get root then you need to reboot to recovery, hold power button + volume up and select Recovery. This will appear to boot as normal but you will have root when you do it this way and not when you boot normally. Unfortunately I do not have reception when I do this but do have root, other users have this problem but I have not found a solution.
Note that I thought I bricked my phone a few times before getting this as nothing would happen after a failed boot and I couldn't switch it on, however what happens is you can't do anything until the battery has almost completely discharged, then when you hit the power button you'll get the no battery sign and when you plug in you can get to Recovery again. This is quite annoying if you've charged it quite high as you'll have to wait a long time to discharge and be tapping on the power button a lot!!
What doesn't work
Battery usage doesn't work, this can probably be fixed following this guide. If I get time I will attempt this.
Other things to note, there is no TWRP yet so I don't have decent recovery options, this also makes it harder to use certain ROMS as you can't flash things like gapps if you install a ROM without it.
The battery life is definitely worse using AOSP GSI than stock, maybe that vendor overlay would help with that though.
I hope that helps others.
TWRP+Encryption Disabling+Magisk Root
Actually there is TWRP for this model ported from alcatel by NickyNS. You can pick up it from here.
You can flash it with fastboot along with the patched lk which is to disable the "Orange state" message. After flashing it you should enter TWRP right with the next step (without booting to OS). On this stage you might want to disable encryption in order to have full-fledged backup-recovery option in TWRP next time you use it. To do so you will have to format data partition. After that step you will loose all you applications and user data for them, so you should backup it previously. After you format the data, flash Magisk first, then flash encryption disabling script from this post. Now you can boot to OS.
Note, that attached TWRP is only valid for firmware CUBOT_KINGKONG_MINI_9101C_V06_20191121. Cubot has released a new one and you can try to use the TWRP with it, but there is no guarantee it will work correctly.
well well, finally and serranoltexx successor?
i ordered one yesterday and am looking forward to get an suiteable replacement for my S4 MiNi [serranoltexx]

Based on the second poster here and someone else who sent me a pm, I believe the TWRP is safe, I haven't tested it myself yet but I plan to at some point and will post here when I do. When I'm using it as my primary device and everything is working okay it's hard to justify messing with it more at the moment!

I understood but the point is if the TWRP source is confiable. I asked the official TWRP Team about the unofficials TWRP on websites in my last post, and they answer: "Hello, we do not run that site, so I cannot confirm the validity of their images."
So, I wonder how safe the unofficial TWRP images are.

This is a very important information. When I did a update firmware the usb cable disconnected and the mobile died. Black screen. The side buttons died too. Only blue led turn on when the usb cable is connected on PC. The windows 10 only recognized the mobile as "unknown usb device (device descriptor request failed)". I thought that had lose the mobile. A few days later when I connect the mobile in the PC, the battery image was showed on screen with 18% of charge and I saw in that moment that I could flash the firmware again.
I flashed official firmware and the mobile worked again but now it died again... because I did a wrong recovery boot. I will wait discharge the battery again. :crying:

Yes, indeed there were three times I thought I had totally bricked and each time I was so annoyed with myself! The key is to not charge it much until you are happy with the ROM you put on.
The amount of drivers I tried to use for different OS' when I got that "unknown USB device" on Windows and Linux didn't detect it was all a waste of time!
Well... the battery image appeared again and I uploaded firmware again. I installed the Magisk in the boot recovery, because this only way to install the Magisk on devices that are using system-as-root, but the Magisk disable my 2 SIM cards. When I boot without Magisk, all back to normal.
I serched for any solution for that but I didn't find.
So, my conclusion is that the Magisk not works to Cubot King Kong Mini. How can I stay with a phone with no SIM card?
I give up.
For me I can only get root when I patched Magisk to Recovery and then boot to Recovery and it doesn't see my SIM card but I have root, so I reboot every time I need root which is a bit annoying...
It is very complicated everytime when need "root", to have power off and on the mobile in recovery boot mode. Besides that, run out of SIM card working is not an option.
I will try to get support of this issue with Magisk Team.
Thank you for share your experience.

Hello,
Does anybody can confirm, that this is working with the new firmware?
I tried the TWRP a few days ago and was able to boot to it but I couldn't mount it to see my files, it asked for a password and I tried "default_password" and creating a password for the phone but that also didn't work. A possibility is to change the file format to ext2 and then to ext4 but I didn't want to try it when I couldn't back it up.

You will not be able to mount and/or use the backup feature of the TWRP until you disable an encryption by formating the data partition and running the script (just press "Cancel" in the TWRP to be able to do that when it asks for the password). Read my original post very carefully. There is a complete sequence of steps in it. Have you tried the TWRP with the last firmware? How did the rest of the system work?

I'm using treble AOSP Android 9 so not the latest firmware. I thought disabling the verification when installing that would be enough but maybe I do need to do those other steps. I can see the /system directory through TWRP so that's probably because that's the one I flashed, but I can't see the internal storage otherwise.

You need to put the "Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_02.04.2019.zip" file into SD card or internal memory to install by TWRP. This file disable the asking of password. Worked for me.

Thanks, I'll check it out!
Anyone else having problems with sensors on this phone? Rotating and compass do not work for me. That's what you get for buying a cheap Chinese phone, I guess.
EDIT: Downgrading firmware back to CUBOT_KINGKONG_MINI_9101C_V06_20191121 seems to fix some problems, rotation works, but compass is still buggy.
Never tried compass but haven't had any problems with rotation.
Tried to install root on a friends kkm but I can't get it working in the os. Is there any chance to get it working there? I am only able to get root access in twrp. Maybe an gsi with root is that possible?
Bien...
I was trying to flash the EU rom on my Redmi Note 8, but I did wype to all the partitions, until that moment I had informed myself about how to flash, how to root and use twrp, but the issue of the partitions still did not know, I selected all the partitions except data and sd and I did wype, in the end my cell phone was completely bricked, I try to turn it on and for a period of less than half a second, I get the Redmi logo, below it says Powred by Android and above I get a padlock open indicating that the bootloader is unlocked, then I get a screen with the message "System has been destroyed" and then it turns off, unless I put it to load, in that case it enters the bootloop state, I cannot enter the recovery but yes I can enter fastboot, I tried to flash it through My Flash Tool and ADB, the problem is that the computer recognizes that the bootloader is unlocked, but when flashing it, a message appears that the bootloader It is locked, so flashing it is not an option, for that reason, I assume that the testpoint method for flashing by EDL would not work either.
That happened three weeks ago, at first I did not know the reason for the problem, later I learned more, I will not make that mistake again, but I am interested in knowing if there is a software solution; I would be interested in being able to download all the partitions and install them on my cell phone using the computer, I don't know if any of those who read this have the opportunity to find the partitions and share them here, I don't know if it is a realistic option, but I have hope, I saw that That solution worked with a OnePlus 3 and that's why I'm looking for information about my cell phone. The only other option I can think of is to change the motherboard, but it's very expensive and with that money, I'd better buy another cell phone.
By the way, my cell phone was in very good condition despite having used it for a year, it was very well cared for and I had no problems with both software and hardware, the reason why I was trying to change to the EU rom is because the Global version was to be a decaf version of the update.
I hope that someone can help to find a solution. Thanks for your understanding.

wiping partition is not a problem in RN8, i wipe all the time before flashing roms ...
download the attached file or use your own adb/vbmeta
reboot to fastboot mode (hold power and Vol -)
choose :
2. Fix "The system has been destroyed"
or (if you have the files)
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
reboot to recovery and flash orangefox , it will reboot again to recovery
check the option :
"aggressive stock recovery deactivation"
if you still want "sh*tui" use recovery flashable zip, not fastboot zips ...
but i highly recommend using custom roms
if you want A10 use RRos or MSM ext or AEX
A11 is still not that good, but if you still want A11 use Xtended XR or POSP
a clean flash is always recommended

I understand what you are saying, the problem is that I deleted all the partitions (/ boot, / system, / misk, and several others that I do not remember), the only ones that I did not delete were sd and data. I read that if you delete the boot partition, you should not restart the cell phone, you must flash a rom with the boot partition, if you don't, the cell phone will not start the operating system
Another thing: I didn't flash any ROMs, twrp didn't read my storage well and couldn't find the .zip file of the EU rom, I just wipe and reboot without flashing anything. I do not know why the cell phone still detects the system for a very brief moment before showing that the system has been destroyed, the problem is that it does not start. And when I try to flash the original ROM, the computer detects that the bootloader is unlocked, but when flashing I get an error saying that it is locked, it occurs to me that possibly the bootloader was one of the first things to be erased, but it was not completely erased Maybe the kernel or ramdisk was deleted and after that everything stopped and the cell phone just bricked, I don't know if I'm correct.

I understand that if you delete the boot partition you must have a ROM ready that comes with a boot partition, or else you would be left with a hardbrick. What I don't know is if I can force the installation of all partitions.

-how did you wipe recovery ? did you use flashtool or something ?
-all roms now comes with boot img (boot partition is where the kernel files are stored) , so no problem wiping it (same for dalvik/cache/system/vendor/data)
yes, you can flash img files of partitions using fastboot (if that what you mean with force install a partition)
-what you should try now is reinstalling twrp 1st
nteresting ... It reassures me to know that I don't need to search for the partitions separately and only need to flash the ROM, although I am concerned about the same problem when flashing. I tried to flash using Mi Flash Tool, ADB and XiaoMi Tool V2, but it is always the same problem, it detects the unlocked bootloader, but when flashing it gives me an error.
I deleted all the partitions from TWRP, it was weird, because the videos didn't show many of the partitions that came out for me, that's why I don't remember them. Before doing wipe I made a copy of everything in case something went wrong, but in the end everything went wrong ...
Now that I remember, I deleted the partitions because when I tried to do anything, I got red letters and TWRP wouldn't let me do anything, when I deleted them the letters turned blue.
It seems to me that I tried to install TWRP from XiaoMi Tool v2 although I don't remember correctly, I will try and write again.
I HAVE ADVANCES!
I flashed the partitions one by one because Flash Tool still does not let me flash the ROM, on one occasion I flashed the system, but in the end it did not finish flashing, I still got the error "System has ben destroyed", I kept flashing partitions but there was no Result, in the end I flashed the system again and when it finished flashing, the error system has ben destroyed no longer appeared, now my cell phone is in a permanent bootloop state with the redmi logo, but it already lets me enter TWRP, I can't flash it from the computer, I'm going to try to get an SD card and flash it from recovery, I'm going to try to flash the EU ROM, but it's already a breakthrough, I don't have a hard brick anymore.
Solved !!!
My computer detected the storage of my cell phone, so I transferred the .zip file from the EU ROM to my cell phone and from TWRP I flashed it. Now I have MIUI 12.6 with Android 11 and I have a weekly OTA update pending. I didn't get TWRP cleared, so I won't have to flash it again.
I thank you very much for helping me find a solution, I hope this helps someone else and this serves me as my experience, I managed to solve a serious problem that I made and you helped me ... Thank you very much.

For now everything seems to be going well, I notice a little lag, but it seems to be normal, also a big update came compared to the version it had before bricking, also, I had already seen that it is normal for the cell phone to go a little Lagged after an update and that resolves itself over time. If it's some EU ROM bug, no problem, weekly updates are coming. I will continue to use it and write my experience.
Thank you very much for your help.

Miui roms are resource hungry and lag is not their only problem , battery and performance are also affected ...
i think you should try custom roms
First, I didn't want to, I preferred to wait, but seeing how slow the cell phone was and how fast the battery was draining, I felt that the best in the long run would be to install a ROM that did not consume so many resources, so I installed the latest version of Pixel Experience. I have to say that I did not expect anything from this ROM, I just expected fluidity and more battery, but in the end I liked it. I personally like MIUI, but I think that Pixel Experience could extend the life of my cell phone. I will continue using it and possibly in the future I will return to MIUI to see how it goes.
