Stucks in EDL mode - Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers

hello all !
As indicated in the title my phone is blocked in edl mode ...
This happened when I activated the encryption ... But strangely sometimes I can start it by pressing buttons but it's random and as soon as I restart it is new block ...
I have already flash several roms on miflash (Qualcomm qdloader 9008), I tried to connect it for several days, I can not start fastboot nor in recovery (I was able to start once on it but it m ' Is impossible to do it again ...).
Would anyone have a solution? Knowing that I have opened my phone to disconnect the battery and perform a test point so my guarantee is dead ...
Thanks for the help you bring me

xiaomi mi3 hard brick cold dead?

Lately I was flashing mi3 trough fastboot on w7ulti64bit when something went wrong and now its cold dead.
I have been looking for solution everywhere and as usual xda is my last resort for help with phones, usually I found here what I was looking for but this time it is first time when I have to post new threat.
So basically I found that battery controller had some cold soldier on chip, whole module gives 0v while cell itself 2,8v so I think I fixed it since now whole battery module shows 3.3v and cell itself 3.8v after charging.
But im unable to wake up phone in to fastboot or any other way to reflash it.
When connected to 2000mAh charger there is solid red light, when connected to PC it lit for a second then goes off and PC recognizes mi3 as USB input device and HID compliant device.
I have tried to update drivers for those devises so miflash would recognize it and allow to flash it but without any success.
Any idea what else I could do with it, or how to force flash to flash at least boot sector?

Try mi flash tool
Main problem is that I have tried all 3 miflash I could found 2.11.6 20131108 20140509 and none of them recognizes device and I can't even initiate flashing process ;/
it sounds like a driver issue. just download all the drivers you can find for your phone.

r u following correct procedure for using MI flash tool ?
is ur Phone able to boot to FLash mode ( turn phone off > Press volume + Key then Press Power on - it will show flash mode )
Now Open MI Flash tool > Press Refesh > it will show phone now ( a number will b shown instead of name Xiamo Mi3)
Now Extract Fastboot rom to C Drive ( it should look like this C:\ROM (Location should not cointain space)
Now click Browse > advance > select C:\ROM\Folder\ select bat file
Its not drivers issue since its get detected as QUALCOMM HS-USB QDLoader 9008 or QUALCOMM HS-USB Diagnostic 9006 depending of its state.
In QDLoader it is recognized by miflash as COM20 device and I can upload by miflash or qpst boot image, then it switches to diagnostic that is recognized by some sort of string and I can upload/proceed with rest of rom flashing that includes creating partitions and writing data to them.
Main problem is that when its successfully flashed it is still cold dark, while PC can see it and all partitions like 28 of them...
And I think its related to the fact that qpst reports phone as in download mode.
Any idea how to exit that mode, like in Mi2 that was forced to enter "service" by shortening some pins to put it download mode to flash cold dead ones?

Is there any solution to this problem? My phone has been cold brick for 3 days now. Doesnt boot up or charge up. Detected on connecting to PC with a sound, but Shows as Com 10 or 20 on Miflash and thus cannot be flashed.
Cannot boot into fastboot as well.
Anyone anything?

So in the last days I bricked my z2 pro by closing the bootloader with a custom installed, and to solve the problem I put it in EDL mode and I used the flash mi, but now when I press the power button it just vibrates and flashes a green Led, but it does not turn on, I already tried several combinations of buttons to get into fastboot and nothing, and when I plugged the usb into the pc it shows nothing

Xiaomi mi 8 hard brick!

hello, i have hard brick at my mi8 .
When i try to press the power button the phone doesn't boot, If i try to go into recovery mode it doesn't boot and same for fastboot mode.
The screen is unresponsive (no backlight) and it doesn't vibrate. When i connect the phone to my computer it is automatically recognized as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM5) which correspond to the EDL mode (i think).
When try to flash any rom with miflash i get the error " cannot receive hello packet.
Can anyone help me ?:crying:

Likely you have too much power coming from your usb ports, use a usb hub such as this: https://www.amazon.com/BYEASY-Porta...jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==
Now try Mi Flash again, make sure that the lock bootloader (which is checked by default) is unchecked.
Now it should work, be sure that you are using a fastboot rom and not a recovery rom. ( a recovery rom will not work)
Make sure that it is a fast boot for your device : If you have a global device here is a link with quite a few fastboot roms :https://c.mi.com/thread-1899815-1-0.html
If you still have trouble let me know, and tell me specifically how you arrived at your brick, I helped someone with this exact issue a couple of weeks ago, and I was going to link you to that thread. But i can't find it at the moment.
I get the same error " cannot receive hello packet" with hub USB.
MY xioami mi 8 is global version, i unlock the bootloader and make a downgrade with twrp to a older version of stable rom, and when the phone start ,its all ok and login my mi account, and the phone goes down and never more boot. Always in the pc i get qualcom port (edl mode) . Sorry for my bad english.:crying:
I think i need account with EDL authorization to flash any rom. And i can't found anyone to save me..
Try https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-8/how-to/unbrick-mi8-edl-authorized-account-t3896677
Thank you .. i try this metod but no success

Maybe try this site : MOD EDIT: link removed
I dont have his name but one of the techs from this site is a frequent XDA user and supposedly legit.
In the end there is a risk of losing $12. Seems to be worth $12 to me.
I send message to this brother , and it's 40 dollars .. i'm thinking about
thanks for reply

My friend accidentally installed an A2 Lite ROM to his A2. Is there something to do?

Hello all,
A friend of mine said he was careless and installed an A2 Lite ROM to his A2. All I know is he can't fix the phone no matter what he tried.
Can we do something about this? Or is the phone permanently bricked?

try flashing stock rom
Thank you for the reply. Will get back to you as soon as I get an answer from him.
Okay, I got some more info: From what my friend said:
He installed the ROM but after selecting "restart device" it didn't boot up.
Pressing button combinations has no effect either.
When the device is connected to PC Windows recognizes it as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008(COM3)".
He also tried different versions of MiFlash but he is getting "The Write timed out" and "cannot read hello packets" (???) errors.
Since the device isn't reacting to button presses he can't activate fastboot.
This was translated from another language. Hope I didn't make any mistakes.
EDIT: He tried edl before, it didn't work.
Now he is getting "Error loading type library/DLL".
Your friend need to do Flash Point
Ask him to google "How to flash a qualcomm soc with qpst via com port". I'm sure he'd find a lot of videos on youtube guiding through the entire process. Also tell him to keep the stock fastboot rom downloaded, coz he'll be needing that.
Flashing a wrong rom destroyed the partition table of his device. If he cant fix it himself, tell him to visit a nearby service centre. He'll get the device back in a few days or so.

all is fine ...
he can flash it in miflash in edl mode
if computer can see the 9008 com port he is already in edl
the error with hello packets is because he waits too long to start flashing ..he needs to unplug phone then when he plugs it in he must have everything prepared then press flash quickly
he can wait for battery to run out of charge ...then prepare miflash ...then plug in phome ...the EXACt moment it wakes press flash
then it will work
Thanks a lot for your time and help everyone. He got frustrated and sent it to a service center. I couldn't convince him. It works fine now, though.

K20 Pro Stuck in fastboot , doesn't detect on PC (fastboot devices)

How this happend:
- I removed my phone pin lock as was going to shift to different rom!
- I restarted to recovery
- it gets stuck on fastboot
I know it happens , phone does gets stuck in fastboot but the issue is the phone doesn't show on anywhere! fastboot devices, MiFlashtool, device manager (ports , android devices ) no where
so it is practically impossible for me to unbrick this device!
I've tried different PCs, (windows) different cable. i've installed every possible drivers i could find (different phone works but only this one (k20pro) doesn't, so I can confirm it's not a driver issue!
So is there any workaround on this? is my phones motherboard busted?
my only hope is EDL flash from a service center hoping that my motherboard isn't dead!
I started a personal conversation with you privately. Please check for help regarding this!
