I'm looking for some help on a topic regarding my redmi 6 pro.
My redmi 6 pro one day out of the blue just froze, then never booted. Recovery also bricked itself and didn't boot past the mi splashscreen. I wiped userdata using fastboot -w and then tried to flash a recovery again, but all my partitions failed to mount.
I'm not quite sure how, but after that it's been stuck on fastboot with any reboot attempts just being stuck on fastboot. I have tried using stock firmware, but the file called sec.dat does not flash at all. The rest flash fine. I tried mi flash tool, but it had the same error. I tried EDL but I don't have an authorised account nor do I know how to flash the firehose patch. I then tried to boot into twrp using fastboot boot, but it got stuck on splashscreen. OrangeFox however worked fine.
Right now I feel like I should flash my default stock partitions but I don't know how at all.
FYI, I've already unlocked my bootloader and everything, I was using HavocOS, last Android 11 version.

It just remain stuck on MI logo after booting ...
C:\platform-tools>fastboot boot recovery.img
Downloading 'boot.img' OKAY [ 0.951s]
booting OKAY [ 0.157s]
Finished. Total time: 1.158s
Kindly advise on how to resolve the issue
Did you temporarily deactivate the Anti-Rollback-Feature with
>fastboot flash antirbpass dummy.img
where you will find the dummy.img in the official download of the Xiaomi firmware before trying to boot into recovery?
This needs to be done in the same fastboot-session that you want to boot into recovery.

Many thanks for the advice. Worked like a charm. :good:
No, I did NOT deactivate the Anti-Rollback-Feature which was causing the problem.
In the past, whenever I installed custom recovery on my device including the first time, I did NOT have to flash dummy.img as my device booted into custom recovery without flashing dummy.img.
P.S.: I used dummy.img from this thread:

ONLY IF you have Unlocked-Bootloader, then you can use this MIUI Flashing Guide- Method 2: Fastboot Update to unbrick your device.
Please carefully chose the firmware version (Global / India) to download the fastboot stock ROM for your device.

Great that it solved your problem!
As addendum: The Anti-Rollback (afaik) has to be disabled every single time the recovery is changed/updated. This caught me off guard as I wanted to update TWRP from within the offical TWRP app. This failed and made my recovery unusable (Although I could still normally boot into system).
So let this be a cautionary tale to people.
I can't boot to my custom recovery in my redmi note 5. it is booting to the original recovery. I tried TWRP and REDWOLF recoveries . It will boot in the first time, then I reboot my phone after that when I reboot, it is booting to the original recovery. Same happened when I tried RED WOLf recovery. Pls help me.

After flash twrp, just flash magisk zip through twrp recovery...
Hello, today I unlocked my Redmi 7, installed custom TWRP and rooted it. Everything worked fine.
Then I wanted to install a custom ROM. The issue is that without noticing i went to the Redmi NOTE 7 forum. So I followed the instructions for the Lineage OS ROM.
I went till the fastboot --disable-verity flash vbmeta vbmeta.img steps. Then i noticed my phone couldn't boot anymore.
I tried flashing back the original TWRP, nothing is working so far.
I also tried using the MiFlash but it gives me an error flash_all_expect_storage.bat isn't found.
If anyone here has any idea, I would be really thankful.
Ok I managed to fix it by doing the same command --disable-verity flash vbmeta bvmeta.img but for the bvmeta inside the Firmware if bricked folder
Hi, earlier, I wanted to change the rom of my mi 5s. I've got an error 7 on twrp during the flash. I tried many things: edit the installation script, format all the data, update and downgrade TWRP, and finally perform a fastboot flash using mi flash and the last one worked. But I am not longer able to flash a custom rom without getting error 7 after the "Patching system image unconditionally" message. I've tested lineage, havoc, pixel experience, miui, even 8.1 rom but same result. I'm stuck with fastboot global miui 10
Btw, I think that after the error the partition are corrupted since I can't repair them with TWRP.
I don't know what I can do more.
edit: I tried to lock and relock bootlander, still geting the same error. I'm stuck on Oreo

I think that i figured out something, I am able to flash system.img file using fastboot but I can't flash zip rom using recovery.
As anyone encounter this ?
Did you try reflash twrp latest version?
hi all i have mi max 3
unlocked bootloader and flashed twrp to root
now phone stuck on mi logo
tried almost all the custom recoveries - roms
all the stuck rom eu and china
nothing worked still same condition bootloop stuck on second logo if anyone have any idea pls
Have you tried format data?
You must flash a stock rom via fastboot. The bootloop thing happened to me when formatting from twrp. That happens because of the issue of partitions.

Can you try to flash the stock firmware?
I downloaded and flash a global stock firmware, but I believe I messed something up in the boot section by issuing a wrong command from the cmd prompt, because the phone was booting fine even though the recovery files I flash didn't work until I issued a cmd with "flash boot recovery" in it.
Hmmm...what happens if you hard reset?
Hey thanks I got through by wiping using Al All-in-one app and flashing stock firmware,
Thanks for all your input
