[Redmi Note 8] Unable to boot to recovery or fastboot (System has been destroyed) - Redmi Note 8 Questions & Answers

Redmi note 8 (unlocked bootloader) stuck on "Your system has been destroyed" (I was trying to install PixelExperience 12, but was not able to boot into the PitchBlack recovery itself). Unable to boot to recovery or fastboot (no button combination is working).
If connected via USB (while just charging too), it just keeps rebooting & shows "Your system has been destroyed".
When disconnected from external power supply, it shuts down automatically after a few seconds, but when I try to boot into the bootloader (or try to turn it on), it again goes to the system destroyed screen.
Here are the set of commands I ran just after unlocking the bootloader:
PS D:\Android\ADB> ./fastboot flash recovery ginkgo_recovery.img

What I believe is that I forgot to disable vbeta verification before flashing the new recovery (when I tried flashing a new recovery in my POCO, I got an error regarding this, but this time none of that happened). Is there any way to do it now? without having to go into EDL mode & stuff?

to avoid problems on ginkgo you have to flash VBMETA then TWRP then the recovery you want
now try to flash the attached VBMETA using :
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
it will fix "System destroyed", if not you have to use EDL

did you try the comand while "system destroyed" is displayed ?

No.. but I tried connecting using adb and it did not work. I think I event tried "fastboot devices" which too didn't show anything .
But I'll try again now to confirm this.

Hi,
Thank you @loopypalm , I was able to boot into fastboot somehow. Now the device is working fine on MIUI 12.

I think you should try some custom roms
miui is not the optimal choice unfortunately ...

Soft Bricked: No recovery, only fastboot

I did a CM nightly Update, which relocked my phone. I tried to unlock it but something went wrong. I can flash partitions but somehow can't boot into anything besides fastboot. When I try to boot into any recovery (even Stock) the phone just restarts after showing the Oppo logo for a moment. (Just as if I was trying to boot a custom rom from a locked device)
OEM-Info:
Code:
fastboot oem device-info

finished. total time: 0.368s
Phone Just reboots into a boot loop.
Flashing anything works fine but I'm getting boot loops again.
A strange thing that happens is that if i try
Code:
fastboot oem lock
the process just get's stuck showing three dots. (Same on Windows and Linux) That probably means that the bootloader is in some buggy way half way locked. (That sadly doesn't explains why the stock recovery won't work)
No idea how to fix it. Thank you in advance!

Amazing tool here: forum.xda-developers.com/find-7/development/recovery-recovery-installer-7-t2819794
Hey !! I solved the pblm!!! what I did was just hit and trial but it worked. Now I will give the method:
Follow these steps and see if u are lucky enough!
step1: go to fastboot mod in your oppo f1
step2: flash stock recovery using adb. Type in "fastboot flash recovery stock.img"
step3: do not reboot your device and type in "fastboot flashing lock_critical".
step4: type in "fastboot reboot"
After these 4 steps I was able to boot back in Project spectrum. I haven't checked until that if I m able to go to recovery mode but I will update once I check. Check if you can boot.
Note: keep the stock.img file in the same folder in which you have your adb installed.
And I am not sure if this will work for you also.. but it is safe so go give a try!!!
THIS WORKED FOR OPPO F1f YOU CAN TRY YOUR LUCK BY USING THIS METHOD

The System has been destroyed - only fastboot possible

Hello,
I bricked my Redmi Note 8T and I have no idea how to save my phone!
What did I do?
I unlocked my phone with XiaomiTool V2 and added Magisk, installed TWRP and trieed to add LineageOS.
So I tried to restart but the system stocked in a "boot - shutdown - boot - shutdown..."
I read in a description, that I have to delete in TWRP-mode some folders in WIPE so I deleted "System", "Data", "Cache", and maybe some other folders! I'm so stupid!
So there is only "The System has been destroyed", after around 30 seconds the system starts again and the bad massage comes again...
It is just possible to start the fastboot mode!
So I tried again to flash and boot TWRP:
sudo fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
target reported max download size of 804274176 bytes
sending 'recovery' (65536 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.617s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.349s]
finished. total time: 1.967s
sudo fastboot boot twrp.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 1.615s]
booting...
FAILED (status read failed (No such device))
finished. total time: 37.120s
Afterwards the system says again "The System has been destroyed".
So now I don't have any idea to save my phone!
Please help me! I trust in you!
My OS on the PC is Ubuntu for your information...
Best wishes

Doesn't sound so bad. And of you had searched the forum before panic posting, you would have easily found at least 3 similar threads already started.
Not knowing what you had wiped from twrp before, leaves the best option for you is to flash the factory fastboot ROM, and then start over.
There is a thread here about fastboot ROM i beleive.

in fastboot rom there must be a file vbmeta.img....if you don't want to download the fastboot rom then download vbmeta.img from here or here..
then download latest platform tools.
extract the plaform tools zip...copy vbmeta.img in this folder,open cmd/terminal in this folder path and flash vbmeta with phone in fastboot mode by this command:
Code:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
after this flash recovery.
Thank you for your fast answers! I tried already the search function but it seemed to me beeing different problems!

I tried it with the vbmeta.img from the fastboot Redmi Note 8 – Global Stable ROM (V11.0.9.0.PCOMIXM | MIUI 11 | Android 9.0) and the platform-tools for linux from xiaomifirmware.com.
sudo fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
< waiting for any device >
On the phone then is "Press any key to shutdown"
After trying again I got:
target didn't report max-download-size
sending 'vbmeta' (4 KB)...
But then nothing happens...
What is wrong?

turns out I have flashed the wrong TWRP image that caused the loop so I had to flash stock ROM to be able to use my phone. Thanks for your time ❤

Question OP9P stuck in fastboot mode, no OS or recovery Help!

I am new to flashing custom roms, and I got lineage running but I wanted to try Evo X, when I tried flashing through lineage Recovery it booted back into lineage, ok, so I erased all datat through lineage recovery and installed TWRP. I got that on but within a few clicks of messing around I found myself with no recovery or OS and im only stuck in fastboot, I have no idea how to get out of it. mods take this post down if posted in the wrong community. I just though this would be the best place to post it. I am new to XDA, I have these ADB logs from the command I was trying to run
C:\Users\user\Desktop\platform-tools_r31.0.3-windows\platform-tools>fastboot boot C:\Users\user\Desktop\platform-tools_r31.0.3-windows\platform-tools\TWRP-3.5.1-lemonadep-Nebrassy-2.img
Sending 'boot.img' (196608 KB) OKAY [ 4.500s]
Booting FAILED (remote: 'Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error')
fastboot: error: Command failed
I have no idea why it keep failing, I would greatly appreciate any help to get my phone working again.
Try the following command :
fastboot flash boot lineage-recovery.img
Once that is done, boot to recovery from fastboot and try flashing the rom you were trying to.

I guess you should try msm tool then
Go for msm tool. You can find a tutorial for 8pro on YouTube. Follow the same steps( obviously with the correct op9 pro firmware.

I have gotten msm tool and my firmware, but nothing is showing up in msm when my device is connected
ive linked a screenshot of what my msm tool looks like, im just so desperate to get my phone back
Power off phone, position mouse cursor o er start button on msm tool, hold down vol up and down simultaneously, plug phone into computer wait a quick second and press start. That should work.

Instead of going for msm tool, when your stuck in fastboot, after successfully flashing an .img (Twrp, losrecovery ) use:
"fastboot --set-active=b" (when you're active in slot a)
Then reboot to recovery.
Basically it flashes okay but to the other slot. Happened to me too. I am now booted into the system on slot b. Hope it helps

Googled the error you have. Check this post (and following ones)
[SOLVED] - Bootloop with completely new OPO9pro after oem unlock
Hello, just received the phone (EU), updated latest online udpate. (no Google account etc added, just fast setup) Enabled developer options, OEM unlocking and USB debugging. After update, 1*reboot. then another reboot to bootloader, and executed...
forum.xda-developers.com
I think you should start over and use "fastboot flashing unlock" instead of fastboot oem unlock.
Follow the link in that thread. Droidwin has the best tutorials for oneplus you'll find. Never had this error myself, so can't say for sure what to do.
