cannot turn on - Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

my mi3 when connected to the pc, the led blinks red and then pc will make a sound like it is connected but then it restarts (by i mean restart, it's like disconnected and then connected again). i have trying charging it for half a day still cannot turn it on. is this some sort of a battery problem?
p/s i already searched the entire forum

can u specify the rom version??

Did you drain the battery to 0? Do you have access to recovery? If you do, plug in your charger, reboot to recovery and reboot to system. It worked for me.

At first,it was kitkat and i tried to upgrade to lollipop using smiui and then something occured.i really cannot boot to recovery or fastboot.please help me

I could've helped you of you had fastboot at least. There are at least 2 or 3 threads in the Q&A or general section about the phone being bricked. Did you try those?

If you had fastboot access, download mi pc suite, download any fastboot rom and flash it. It would've been perfectly OK.

Follow the rules and there will be no problems. The mods already warned you and shut down your threads and you just keep creating more, giving no information when needed to even fix the problem.

Hi chrisschlagal,
did you check the port number in windows/linux device manager after connecting the device? Did you set it to port 41?
Go get the stock rom for your version and flash through Odin. It was kinda stupid for you to flash a G2 recovery in the first place.

The only thing you can do from this point is flash a stock rom for your model through odin. I've done it before.
Hi,
try one finger on button volume down and then additionally slightly touch with this finger power button, too. It will boot into Recovery mode.
For rebooting via windows/linux command window usb debugging must be enabled in settings.

I have downloaded all images necessary but I cannot flush them. I also need to mention. Fastboot mode doesn't shows up on the screen. screen is inactive for anything I do including keys combination. Only thing which shows that the device is still alive is when I plug in the USB into a pc it shows me that the drivers are not installed and that is a android.Please help

Fastboot is not displayed in the screen.
its just a black screen and the phone being recognized as qhusb
download the drivers in this post
and try again the method that I sent you before.
remember to not use the files from G2, recovery must be the one of G Flex. you may find an image of twrp 2.8.5.0 here in the forum.
Good luck

I turned off the phone and then nothing happend .. no fastboot no adb no charging .. nothing..
only when I plug it into my pc, the devices shows up as qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008
I flashed china developer ROM and it was flashed successfully,but still nothing happen..
any solution?
sorry for my bad english
same problem with this http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5/help/hard-brincked-mi5-day-t3514250
Solved with this way
adwinp said:
1: if you're detecting it as qcom 9008, there's a good chance it's in EDL mode, which is good news
2: download MiFlash from here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24521665358595574
3: download the latest dev rom from here: http://update.miui.com/updates/v1/fullromdownload.php?d=gemini&b=X&r=cn&n=
4: Extract the files to C:\
5: Open MiFlash & point the folder to the root ROM folder, example: C:\gemini_foo_bar, NOT C:\gemini_foo_bar\images
6: connect your phone & select flash all (1st option from the left, bottom of MiFlash tool)
This might take a few tries (example - you might receive "missed hello packets)
Once you're done, you can stay with the China Dev, unlock the bootloader & flash a xiaomi.eu rom, or CM.
Good luck.

Hello to all. My phone is Xiaomi Mi5. A few days ago, it suddenly turned off while the battery was still charging. It was neither charged nor turned on. It was like a dead phone. I left it alone for two days. After two days, I recharged and it started charging. Again, after a few days, it suddenly went out again. It's still like a dead phone. It neither charges nor turns on. I opened the back cover of the phone and disconnected the battery connector for half an hour and reconnected it. But the problem was not solved. Can anyone help me restore my phone?

Use another cable or try another battery. If it is not solved then try another charging port board (final solution, if this doesn't help you then STOP and buy a new phone if you have enough money, or save money for the new one if you don't.)

Mi5 hard bricked?

Hey Guys,
yersterday i installed thrue TWRP the LineageOS + LOS Root + Gapps. Everything was fine... till today.
I would like to enter the bluetooth settings. After then, the display recognises no touch, went black. First i could restart the phone. After restart i was going to bluetooth again. But, the same... After that, no more response from the phone. No, Battery LED, No Fastboot, No Recovery. The phone seems dead.
When i connect the phone to PC there is a "qualcomm hs usb qdloader 9008" device listed but no more. Miflash recognises no phone, adb is not showing.
What can i do? In which state is the Phone? EDL?

Going black for no reason is a common problem of Mi5.
It's in EDL mode.
Flash a fastboot rom and you will be okay to go.

You don't need to flash anything. Just disconnect and reconnect the battery. 2 minutes job. You can find a tutorial on YouTube.

How often does the Mi5 land in this mode? This is already a risk because of the use in the long term.

I figured that opening up sealed phone might make people scared or worry for their warranty.

In my case it happened very often on stock Lineage OS kernel. Never happened on Lineage while I was on DragonXia kernel or on MIUI.
OK! What can i do? Is it possible to switch the Kernel?
I have good news! Phone works after disconnect the battery. But this is not a solution.
I had after rebooting to ROM the same issue when i go to bluetooth settings. BT seems not working probably. If i go twice to BT settings the phone will brick.

I had made a new installation with lineage OS without Root and mini Gapps. Now it seems, that BT will work normaly.

If you hold down the power and the volume+ buttons until your phone reboots, it will take you to fastboot. Does that work for you? If so, you can try rebooting into recovery from there. And if that doesn't work you could try flashing TWRP again in fastboot.
And if none of that works for your, you may have to use the unbrick tool.
PS: is your battery dead? Try recharging the phone.

Thank you for all the tips but I have tried everything you mentioned. It does nothing.
