My xiaomi mi5 yesterday had low battery and I wanted to put it on edl mode and update it to the newest miui.
While I was doing so, the phone shutdown and never answered again. Doesnt boot, doesnt go to recovery mode, doesnt go to fastboot or edl, is not recognized AT ALL by windows, doesnt show charging light, nothing at all. Im kind of desperate and have no idea what to do...
Charge it up. Then hold the button combination for fastboot mode for about a minute or two. Fastboot screen should appear and so should twrp laterwards. Happened to me twice. The phone was completely dead nothing responded. Then i did this to fixit

Hello, it's my first question on XDA but I really like this community. So for my problem : after bug in lineage os I wanted returned on the official ROM but after flashing (with my flash tool) the phone doesn't want turn on, the screen stay black no vibrate no LED. On my computer the phone was sometime detected as a MTP devices. So i turn the phone on the fastboot to flash but went he is on fastboot the screen doesn't wake up but on the computer the phone is on fastboot and I can flash. After I tested the recovery so I flash TWRP and boot on this but the screen doesn't wake up but with ADB tool I see my phone and I can move in the phone with "adb shell". I tested all the thing I know to unbrick my phone so I answer you. I really thank you if you can help me.
PS: I don't speak very well English so I really sorry for all the mistake
Absolutely identical situation here, but for me the phone just died by itself at night. Reflashing stuff with EDL / Fastboot does not help at all.
With some combination of boot AND recovery it is visible as adb + mtp device, with some does not.
Should be noted that fastboot boot recovery.img does not boot recovery and loops, but holding up button while inserting usb cable does.

Usually you should try removing and reinserting the battery, but the Mi5's battery is not removable, as you know.
So what you wanna do is to force this behaviour by pressing the power + vol up + vol down buttons all together for about 1 minute (be serious about this - also try like 2 minutes if it doesn't work quicker!).
You'll notice that it has been working by seeing the Mi logo.
Solved the black screen of death error for me once.
How about you?
@Phil_Smith, thanks for the advice, well, it seems that the problem we have is a little different.
I have that behaviour (black screen + adb + mtp) sometimes only when trying to boot recovery, but when trying normal boot i get bootloader bootloop with "Mi logo unlocked".
I think i should make a thread for my own problem.
P.S. I think the power supervisor should shutdown (restart) phone if power button is being held for 10 seconds, except if in EDL mode!
I can also recommend doing poweroff from adb shell and removing USB cable immediately afterwards - it should power off the phone.
@Phil_Smith y really thanks you for your answer but that don't running on my phone... I think it's the motherboard who is broken because I have no vibrate no led and no screen. I give up for this phone... Thank you and @skydev I hope you find a solution
Good morning people,
Hope you are well!
I updated my Mi A2 via OTA to PIE, it was in Bootloop, I got MiFlash back to OREO (V9.6.16.0), and I tried to install PIE, now for Fastboot MiFlash , but my cell phone was again in Bootloop.
Does anybody know how to solve this?
Or what happened to someone else?
Thanks for the help!
Claim warranty by far the most easy solution.
And yeah more people have this isseu.
had same problem... twice but solved very easy
just boot to recovery boot (volume down ad power)... connect power and left 10-15 minutes...
dont disconnect phone from power and press and hold power until reboot, release power button and voila, phone normally boot!!!!
i notice if you not wait long enough in recovery boot, phone remain in bootloop... just be patient and maybe helps... works for me twice...

But when I do this, it goes into Fastboot mode (power and volume minus).
Are you talking about going into recovery mode?

just enter in fastboot mode and do nothing... only connect to power charger
is weird because i had two times this problem.. once after android 9 upgrade week ago, and second time today after factory reset
every times i cant do anything to work... this with power charger was stupid idea but is worked.... just connect charger in fastboot mode, wait 10-15 minutes and restart phone with power button... both times this worked for me...
i remember few years ago similar problem with Nokia/MS windows phones batteries and similar steps helped...
After instal january update and restart, on the phone see Android One logo and nothing is happening. After 5 minutes it switches off.
I'll get to the bootloader, but I can not unlock the bootloader (neither unlock critical). Is anyone able to help?
Use official xiaomi "MI FLASH TOOL" on Windows and flash with full stock image named "fastboot rom"
(Download image here: https://xiaomifirmware.com/roms/latest-android-roms-for-xiaomi-mi-a2/)
(You have to extract on Windows this tar.gz and tar also, and then flash with Xiaomi tool)
If you need help with this tool, read this "mi flash tool" tutorial:

hello dears,
i have nokia 8 after last update of pie before a week suddenly my phone was acting strange ,so iwas tried to wipe data from twrp recovery i noticed all my folder where encrypted with strange letters i backup my data but after i reboot my phone its no longer working its freezing on bootloader warning screen and wont turn off or restart i have to wait until its battery drain to 0 and when i plug the usb with pc or charger once its reboot and i see even nokia logo but it restart again and stuck in bootloader warning (icant enter recovery mode or fastboot mode which is download mod)
and when itry to recharge phone its restart automatically after its battery get green after 5 min of recharging , at this point ithink im already fked up and the pc only detect MTP usb device under portable device as cd driver in pc (and show adb bootloader for only 3 second after plug in it to pc ) before its reboot and change to mtp
im already disappointed ifaced bootloader problem before but ifixed it easly but this one is unexpected problem
my last hope is i found that my phone can access safe mode when i hold power+vol + vol-
but i should hold it when my phone plugged to pc but the problem is ishould keep holding these 3 button to see safe mode and when i keep holding it and i see the phone screen open with menu its show me shutdown message and turn off immediately ,
any help will be appreciated ,:fingers-crossed:
You could try reflashing the stock boot image, booting into stock recovery, and doing a factory reset from there. I am not sure if TWRP can properly reset the phone if /data is encrypted. I also heard that you should avoid resetting your phone when you have Magisk installed (if thats the case for you).
You can boot into the bootloader by turning the phone off, and connecting it to a computer through the USB cable while holding down the volume up key.

i need help, a few days ago my phone freezes, shuts down, and wont back up again.
i tried all button combinations and nothing seems to work at all,pressing volume up + down and power button only result on a red light flash once
This isn't the first time my phone freeze, last month i exprience a hard crash and a bootloop, but i flashed it through edl mode and it works again.
this time it wont even boot up at all,i hit a dead end.
i tried to use an edl cable but it still didnt work, the only way to access the edl mode is to short the test point inside the phone.
that method works, i manage to get in edl mode, reflash everything, but the phone still wont boot up.
also all the hardware is fine, i checked everything including the ufs and it works just fine.
but for some reason it wont charge at all on both the side, and the bottom port.
if i leave it for a while and then charge it, i get a blinkin red light for a while and then it stops flashing again.
if anyone can provide help i would be very thankfull
summary : i successfully flash the phone, but it wont boot up, and also wont charge for some reason. it still getting some current going in, but not much.

if i may ask, does your phone still able to get into fastboot at the time ?
no it was completely dead - so i tried to press power button for long time nothing happened, so i left it and after a few hours i put it in charger and tried power on, then it booted,,, After that i did factory reset, falshed the newest rom + kernel and (knocking on wood) it never happened again
I have Redmi 4A which is not turning on normal but when I plug it in to charge it goes in a boot loop and it continues to vibrate for three times and then its turns off
It is booting into to fastboot mode and I have already tried to flash the latest software using MI flash and then I have tried to do if through XiaoMITool v2
I even opened the phone and remove the battery and plugged it in directly and the same exact thing happens.
But still the same thing happens is there any way to fix this problem?
Same thing happens with me
