Elite OS. Was unlocked.
Does anyone have EDL access that would be willing to save me?
I gess u used MiFlash tool if u locked ur bootloader (clear all and lock), so I guess again that u flashed an stock rom (since MiFlash tool works with fastboot stock rom only). That means that ur not on Elit ROM anymore but in a stock ROM. If u can access fastboot as u claimed, try to unlock ur bootloader again....maybe a miracle is happen and it will work without bonding ur account to ur phone In this stage, u can not mess up ur phone more, so give it a try
Try to unlock bootloader again. It should be possible if you unlocked bootloader before.
It doens't work, it asks me to do the old adb, i can't get in the phone to enable unlock.
but yes, i did...rookie mistake, poxy thing shouldn't even be there and now Im more screwed than ever
What did you flashed with miflash?Stock rom?
When the phone starts at the POCO logo do you have the little lock at the top of the screen locked ?

You can try this guy https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/bricked-mi-8-edl-flashing-problem.58984/#post-582694
Personally didn't contact him, so you have to risk it to verify, and high chance to charge you some repair fee.
If you think everyone who offers EDL but request payment is fishy, then your only choice is Xiaomi repair center.
In your state, chances for EDL access free of charge is extremely low, even non-exist.
If you want free of charge, then try Xiaomi repair center. There's chance for free repair, that is, if your device meet the warranty coverage policy.

I had a similar issue with a Motorola. I tried this, so no promises...but generally I think it's "hot booting" the boot image. I ran the command:
fastboot -b flash boot boot.img
It returned some output like "downloading..." and something else. Of course, locate and put your matching boot.img file in your fastboot directory before flashing. Afterwards, my phone booted into the system like nothing was wrong. I suppose it didn't make it to flashing the system partition? which left it bootable?
Please, corrections, I'm uh, new <----.

You cant flash anything via adb if your bl is locked -_-
If you have an f3 and flashed a fastboot rom you shouldn’t get any issue!! There is a little tool to switch to edl from fastboot , but even having access to that you need a verified mi account to flash or pay someone , its around 25$ had the same issu 7 months ago i can provide you the contact of a legit guy who did for me
I think you have to first put your phone in edl mode by opening the case (melt the glue using a hair dryer) and shorting 2 pins. You should start worrying about edl credentials after you have done that.

Yes, apparently you can. My bootloader was locked when I input that command. The phone then booted into the normal system. You have to have a matching boot image though.

So, long story short I recently decided to try and root my oneplus7t I unfortunately made some mistakes and somehow corrupted some files. I read elsewhere in the forum that I could download the stock rom which I did and then use flash-all and that would allow me to go back to the factory settings so I could lock the oem and just go back to normal because I was tired of the headache. Unfortunately, after using flash-all I locked the oem thinking everything should be stock and it would work properly. But it says device is corrupt and trying to unlock the oem says oem unlocking is disabled.
So did I just completely brick my phone? I don't know of anyway to fix it at this point :/.

Can you still boot into bootloader via the hardware keys, whatever that combo is on the 7t?
Boot to bootloader or recovery and factory reset it or so.

I can get to the bootloader but it's Device State -locked and when I tell it to boot into recovery it says the device is corrupt. When I use fastboot to oem unlock it says I cannot, and I can't flash when oem is locked either.

Try
fastboot erase userdata and

Let me know if that works or not we will move on. Probably won't work since it's bootloader locked
You may have to contact OP and while you're at it, get the MSM tool for us all :good:
It says erase is not allowed in locked state . I think this is probably all she wrote for this one. I think I'm just going to send it back tbh, the whole reason I was trying to root it was because it didn't work with Sprint like they said it would. and I was wondering if I could find a way too make it work with custom software.

How did you flash twrp with it oem locked??That doesnt make sense
I had twrp on it when the oem was unlocked, I was trying to reset the device to stock, so I did a flash-all and then oem locked it. But for some reason the repair was unsuccessful, and now it says my device is corrupted and I forgot to turn on oem unlocking in the settings on my phone after the flash-all before I did the oem-lock.

Looks like you will need the MSM tool to fix this issue. You'll have to contact OP support and they will remote in your PC, load their software and flash it 100pct back to stock.
Also, disconnect them before they can delete the MSM tool so we can have it here in the community

Press volume up/down and power, reboot to fastboot. Unlock bootloader again. Install update from settings, reboot and install it again. (local install)
Factory reset in setting, reboot fastboot, lock bootloader. Reboot and untick unlock bootloader in developer settings.
Don't know if it's too late but I believe there's a working MSM tool now
Hello,
I have a Redmi Note 8 pro (China version). I unlocked the bootloader and flashed the Global ROM. Unfortunately, the phone didn't reboot and it is now stuck with message "this ROM can't be installed on this device".
I realized afterwards that many other users had the same problem. Now it is impossible to flash the chinese Rom again (I get the CRCLIST flash error).
I believe my only option now is to re-flash the China stock ROM using the EDL method and an authorized Xiaomi Account. Can anyone help me do that?
If anybody has other suggestions, that would be really helpul.
You may flashed lower version of miui. If you can enter into fastboot mode, flash with latest China miui, then install TWRP, then use TWRP to flash global rom. I used twrp here and it works for my china phone, now im on global rom.
Just my 2 cents:
1. Always flash stock ROM via fastboot. ALWAYS use option "clean all". NEVER use option "clean all and lock"
2. Make sure the ROM's folder path is not containing space characters. Several stupid errors can come from this.
Ex: C:/this_is_the_rom_path
3. Use USB2.0 port from your PC. Better plug the device into USB2.0 rear port.
I couldn't make any of my USB front ports to work. Only the USB2.0 rear port.

Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately, I believe the bootloader is locked again now. I can put the phone in fastboot mode, but I cannot flash anything (not allowed in locked state).
If anyone knows how to flash with EDL method... But of course we would need an authorized account to do that.

I remember mi unlock tool will work in fastboot mode. I recommend you to use mi unlock tool which you used first time to try in fastboot mode. It may say: you need to wait xxx hours, then you have to wait. Or it may unlock directly like first time. Since you unlocked first time, it will be bounded into your Mi account already.
If you have fastboot mode available, do NOT too worried, more likely to you have it back. using SP Flash tool with paid auth account is last step.
Could you fix it?

i have the same issue of not able to get into recovery but able to go into fastboot while trying to boot normally just gets stuck at logo phone is able to charge. Showed to a local repair shop who says its a power ic issue searched web where someone mentioned about issue w flash memory (this was for some samsung phone not sure if it applies to mi). I have no clue does anyone know how i can eliminate some of my doubs step by step?
1. I think it may be my power/volume button strip but i dont know how can i test thee device without the strip (i have some schematics) .
2. Maybe Rom issue and since bootloader is locked and no usb debugging enabled nor i can unlock it using official tool since it requires me to go to developer settings and link my mi account i cant flash anything (though i came across some posts claiming you can bypass edl authorization using 2017-18 flash tools and anti5 test i dont have a clue as to what to do).
3. due to recent conflicts i cannot access mi india forums and nor can download proper official stock rom( since its my relatives phone i dont know what version it was on )
4. the phone was dropped previously which cracked the glass but was in working condition for more than 3-4 months atleast .Cant find any trace of water damage inside.
5. got some schematics from web by searching here and there but i dont know how to troubleshoot lol.
Any help would be appreciated , i cannot trust local technicians as there have been past incidences of missing parts from device after they keep for a day and return next day(skeptical if there are some parts missing or replaced w defective ones ).
Will update if i get it working.
Hi everybody,
yesterday I tried flashing the stock pocof3 rom back onto my phone, but since it got stuck in a bootloop at the fastboot logo. Showing the poco logo for a milisecond and then straight to fastboot..
(before this I flashed twrp and the arrowOS recovery and images a few time trying, without succes, to install this rom)
Last thing I did was flash via the mi-flash tool and did't see the "clean and lock" selection so it's also in lock state again.
I cant get adb to find the phone although the mi-flashtool is finding it.
anyone any tips?
I tried the vol up power trick, but this didn't help, keeps loading into fastboot

BAD NEWS... your Poco is bricked. You cannot flash ANYTHING using a PC when your bootloader is locked.
(I did same thing on a Mi11 5g last week and ended up selling it on eBay for spare & repairs
I tried sideload flash, miflash, copying update.zip to internal storage via ADB, and many other options - all without success).
- if your POCO is under warranty in your country (i.e. not a chinese import)... contact Xiaomi Support they can re-flash correct ROM
- Ask your local phone repair store... they *might* be able to flash original ROM back by using "Chimera" engineering software.

- Bootloader was re-locked whilst a custom ROM was in the phone.
(MIUI with Locked bootloader will not boot up where ROM is not stock or does not match the region/product code).
You cannot apply for bootoader unlock because you cannot boot up into Android and request the unlock via Developer mode.
You cannot remotely (via PC cable) flash any ROM into a Xiaomi / POCO phone whilst botloader is locked.

Nope bootload locked = no 'remote' flashes via pc
Apparently there is an 'authenticated user' mode for Xiaomi engineers in MiFlaah and also an EDL Emergency Download Mode which you can trigger by shorting out 2 pins on the motherboard so bypass bootloader lock and flash any ROM
Neither were available options for me

I think a warranty repair claim is your best bet ... I have never read anywhere that unlocking bootloader invalidates Xiaomi warranty (Unlike Samsung and so many other brands!)
If warranty repair is re refused try a few independent repair shops
Last resort is get the back cover off the phone and short out the EDL pins
Good luck!

ROOT RED MAGIC 8 PRO V3.18Your device must be bootloader unlocked
To unlock bootloader enable oem unlock in developer options and usb debugging
Then type the command: adb reboot bootloader
Or access fastboot with hardware key: Power + volume down
Once in fastboot type the following command to unlock:
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot flashing unlock_critical"
Access fastboot then type the command:
fastboot flash init_boot_a magisk_patched-25200_3.18UN.img
fastboot reboot
Done
You check if the correct active slot is a, if it is b just change the command a with b
Only use for V3.18 version I have not tested other versions
Note: Absolutely do not patch the boot file, you will have a continuous boot error
Root Done
The backups with just ommiting the B slots is 12.7 gb so i cant personally help you with that. Have you tried flashing the OTA's boot.img (might even try boot_a.img) and init_boot.img while slot A is selected? Not the magisk modded files either.

i flashed those 2 files but still can't boot the phone, go to logo then turn off the screen, can only go to fastboot and recovery, i sideload 47% it gives error
If you are rooted, please help me, I will send you coffee donate, please help me, full backup
I Pm'd you the backups now that i am at home, hopefully they help
Im at a stand still with this. I have already fastboot flashing unlock_critical as you can see in which it states Device already unlocked but whether I am in bootloader and fastboot I get Flashing is not allowed in a lock state. Any help from some else that ran into this or has knowledge on it?
Thanks
Update. Fixed the issue. Add the step of "fastboot flashing unlock" before "fastboot flashing unlock_critical"
If You can flash a GSI, It'd be a decisive factor in getting people to buy this phone. The company should be paying you to do this, but they're probably too greedy to make a bigger profit
I've successfully flashed a few A13 GSIs but screen lock is a still a problem and so far calls and messaging doesn't work normally.
I know that this next question were asked before, but i keep not understanding much about it: if i revert back the root completely (unroot the phone, lock the oem and delete "third party apps" like magisk, etc.) will my warranty be back? i am talking about the redmagic 8 pro void specifically. Can someone help me understanding this? i have searched on internet about this and they all say that simply it depends on manufacturers to "detect" if the warranty was void (even if you unroot and lock oem and all).... Thank you in advance

Well once you unlock bootloader it clearly says warranty: void in fastboot so it probably is very easy to detect

In that case, why op said that the warranty can still be returned after relocking the bootloader?
As you see, it is very connfusing... Some guys say yes, some others not. :s

Did you follow the instructions correctly, this error may have you flashed the wrong boot file, right?

Yes, I unlocked the bootloader first.
Then I flash boot and an error occurred.
Did I get a brick or is there hope?)
