PC will not detect Mi Mix - Xiaomi Mi MIX Questions & Answers

Mix
7.0 NRD90M
MIUI Version: Miui Global 9.2 | Stable 9.2.1.0 (NAHMIEK)
kernel: 3.18.31 perf-g0bf156d-01070-g4aac0b4a
Phone came unlocked from seller HongKong Goldway on Aliexpress.
I have tried to download the usb drivers for my laptop which is on windows 10 and a PC running windows 7 and did that update driver thing and tried to use the downloaded winusb_inf file. I've also tried going into windows INF folder and right clicking that wdptmp.inf file and trying "install".
The laptop says Unknown USB device ( Device Descriptor Request Failed) and the PC says Unknown Device. Both are under the USB section on Device Manager
I installed ADB Fastboot tools, turned the phone off and held power + vol down to go into "Fastboot" where it loads a white bunny with a green russian hat holding cords behind a green android robot. Fastboot on the computer doesn't detect any devices.
I also tried Mi Suite and nothing detects. I am using the original usb type C cord and I also tried 3 different usb Type C cords.
Any help guys?? (Also I can't find any update app icon anymore...is that new?)
I want to install TWRP and root so i can do that performance tweak for the mix. and load up a custom rom.

What about miflash, it will ask you to install drivers, they are bundled with miflash

Hi thanks for the reply,
Is that the program that has the "RESTESTING" and "INSTALL" button/options? If so. I've tried clicking install and it says its finished. If this is the same program were talking about, it didn't do anything to help detect the phone.

Sounding like you might have a vendor ROM installed, you should follow the guide in the guide's section, follow the guide for installing twrp with vendor ROM. The unlocked bootloader is a sure sign the vendor installed their own ROM.

interesting. I thought my miui version meant that it wasn't a vendor rom? in any case, i still can't install TWRP if i can't get my phone to detect on any pc...

Yea the guide tells you how to install the drivers, miflash has an option to install driver's. From fastboot you bypass the ROM

I've already installed adb fastboot and all that on my pc. Booted my device into fastboot mode. fastboot does NOT detect any devices though. see my issue? i cant do anything from fastboot because nothing is detected.
Also i only have 4 numbers...doesn't that mean its NOT vendor?

No follow the guide for the correct install of driver's, disable driver signature in windows 10.
http://en.miui.com/thread-345974-1-1.html#post_6279092
There are 1000s of people on this forum who have done the same thing you are trying to do. So basically you are trying to get China dev ROM installed through miflash, then your PC will recognize it then you can install the rest after.
Search vendor ROM mi mix, even if it isn't vendor ROM sounds like you are still going to follow the same guide.
Have you tried another PC? Don't see anyone else complaining about not detected

I've already tried this and still nothing comes up on miflash or anything else. i swear im not retarded. I tried it on 2 laptops running win 10 and a pc desktop running win 7. my redmi note 4 global detects on all of them no problem which is making me frustrated here.

i cant install china dev rom if miflash doesn't even detect anything plugged in. literally about to smash my mix. yes i tried to follow that guide and similar ones like it. and yes i disabled signature
installed drivers from miflash, disabled driver sig, put phone into fastboot, plugged it in the pc, clicked REFRESH on miflash. nothing appears.
I'm not crazy.

i have tried 2 and 3, nothing. method 1's steps didnt really make any sense to me so i didnt do that one.
im dumbfounded because im reading posts on XDA and MIUI forums and theres like 30% of mi mix owners that never found a solution to this while the other portion did easily. I have no idea what I could be doing wrong and I'm starting to think it's the phone and not my laptop. I also found out that when i go into fastboot mode on my mix, it only stays in fastboot mode for like 30 seconds and then ejects itself out of fastboot mode (im not sure if this is normal)
Ive also tried to download older official china roms and tried updating them through the mix's updater option. nothing. what in the hell is going on here?!??!?!

Hey thanks for the reply.
Do you see picture 1 you uploaded, where its device manager and you can see Portable Devices and there you have that One A2001 device that shows up?
I don't have ANYTHING that pops up under portable devices or portable storage.
Mine only has a notification under the USB serial bus controllers. Mine says only this
Now, I know what you mean by trying to install the MTP USB Device, except you can't do that when you have this kind of USB error because it doesn't even detect a device to even update a driver to MTP.
If you read back you'll see that I have tried installing USB drivers before, I've also used the MiFlash tool to install drivers through there. Still nothing. If someone can find a fix I'll paypal them a few bucks for their trouble because I seriously don't know what to do from here. I've searched many forum posts on here, miui forums, reddit and everyone seems to at least have something detect in their Device Manager as a device. OR some people are able to detect their device in ADB boot but mine doesn't and mine also can only stay in fastboot for 30 seconds before it kicks itself out.
I also don't believe I have a vendor rom because it only has 4 numbers despite coming in the mail already with an unlocked bootloadeder.

Try right clicking on the unknown usb device and if it shows that you can update your driver software so try doing what I sent in my first reply (I hope your phone is connected to your pc in this picture ?)

phone is connected. and ive already tried what you're guide says. except this is what it looks like on mine\
no MTP option at all
when i uncheck compatible hardware box (there is no mtp as far as i looked in the options)
I believe yours gives you the MTP option because your computer picked it up as a device. Whereas mine is having some kind of USB error and doesn't know wtf is plugged in? The thing is, it will detect my Redmi Note 4 Global with no problem... so

Damm.
IDK maybe there is a problem with your charging port.
You can try another thing, If you have another phone with a USB type C port and you have a USB type C to USB type C charging cable, then connect these 2 phone and try transferring files from one phone the to other (Did it with my phone and my friend's Nexus 5X).

[Q] Fastboot mode problem - Xperia SP

Hi guys, got a slight problem with entering fastboot mode. I hold the volume-up key and connect me USB cable but rather than getting the noise verifying it's been connected ok, I get that dull sound it makes when it hasn't worked. It won't even let me install the drivers and in device manager it comes up as "S1boot Fastboot" for a few seconds before then going into battery charging mode. I downloaded the Android SDK latest and replaced the USB driver INF file with the one sony give you but it didn't work so reversed back to the other driver the SDK manager installs and that didn't work either.
I've been through the tutorials and even tried to update the driver in device manager in the few seconds it stays there but that didn't work either! USB debugging is enabled too!
Please help, I'm not a noob and have done fastboot booting before and yes for those who may ask have already checked to make sure the bootloader can be unlocked and yes it can also the phone is NOT branded and is unlocked to all networks.
Any help will be appreciated, thanks!
Dave.
Are you on Windows 8? Using USB 3.0?
"As your flesh bears the sigil....your name is that....of a recusant."
First be sure you're using a 2.0 usb port, if this is ok maybe it's a windows 8 driver problem, so you should try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2170114. It works for me
For also fastboot and flashmode come for 5 Sec. So Make sure you prepare the file and attach the device to fastboot or flashmode when it is asked.
Still problems
I'm still working on a 2012 laptop with Windows 7 Premium installed. It's fully up to date and all the drivers are installed properly I just don't get it, I've tried everything and it's still making the noise as if it won't connect. I don't know what to do to be honest. Also yes it is USB 2.0.

I have a similar problem. the power light lights up blue then passes into the phone starts loading mode
Sorry for bad English
The updated version (09.14) don't work properly. It doesn't enable me to go to Flashmode. Uninstalled and used the previous version and it worked as it should, no issues entering Flashmode.
i might have actually found the solution. im on the 4.3fw build version 12.1.a.1.201... in my case, my pc will automatically install the drivers for mass storage giving me no chance to update the driver to the one from sony.
you need to do step 9. and 10. if you havent done so from http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions
what i did was allow developer settings and allow debugging via usb.
plug in and attempt to go in to fastboot and obviously it'll fail.
go to device manager. (control panel->hardware and sound->device manager) quickly scroll down go to other devices. you will see s1fastboot (or something like that) if you're quick enough, if not, in my case, the phone will go in to charging mode.
what i did was to disable xperia sp mass storage from disk drives category too.
right click on it and select update driver software and you will select the file you've unzipped (following step 9 and 10 sony's instructions).
after it has finished updating, unplug your usb and attempt to enter fastboot, it should work.
PS: im no expert, this solution might be out there somewhere already or it could just be a great coincidence. some of these steps might not be useful even.
Had this problem and found a funny solution: I switched my cable and the port I was using. Both Ubuntu and Windoze 7 failed on both fastboot and flash mode, even though in both the phone would charge. I grabbed a spare micro USB cable and plugged it into the front of the PC; voila. Now the phone is rooted and running the latest CM.
Need a final solution for this problem
I don't know what to do!!! The problem is this, very similar to the others mentioned above,: When i conect my xperia sp to fastboot mode, pressing volume up while plugging in usb cable, the phone led turns to blue for few seconds and than it just turns to red showing on the screen the battery image( normal charging mode)...... I' m using windows xp and a rooted xperia sp whit cm11 (for locked bootloader obviously). Just two last things:
the phone can be unlocked( I checked it) and fastboot worked the same as now with stock xperia sp firmware.
Please i need a final and a certain solution for this problem!!!
i'll be very thankful to anyone who give me a hand!!!!

Are you trying to unlock your phone?
Have you installed device specific/fastboot/flashmode drivers via FlashTool? If you are on Windows 8/8.1, you need to disable driver verification to get it done.
Alternatively if you just wanna unlock your bootloader, you can use the BLU option in FlashTool. Again all drivers will need to be properly installed for your phone to be detected correctly.
You say you had the same problem with stock firmware which means you probably haven't setup adb/fastboot properly on your PC. Does your phone get detected correctly in Device Manager? Have you tried installing drivers via Device Manager?
....
So the solution is installing flashtool and installato drivers via Emma?? Thanks forma the attention!!

I meant install drivers via FlashTool. Go to C:\Flashtool\drivers or wherever you have installed Flashtool and run the Flashtool-drivers.exe.
Select flashmode drivers, fastboot drivers and common drivers viskan board (SP drivers) and install them. Like I said if you are on Win 8/8.1, you will have to disable driver signature enforcement. Just look it up in YouTube and follow a tutorial.

fastboot errors all the way. help?

Hello!
So, I am simply an indian with all the developer-things. Checked lots of the topics here, tried everything I found and nothing. Error after error. Let's jump to the problem:
- HTC ONE M7
- hboot - 1. 61
- windows 8.1 Pro x64mBit
- USB 3.0
Installed all kind of drivers I found, but nothing works when it is in fastboot mode. The phone shows that it is connected to the PC, but in the settings the PC recognise it as "Android 1.0" and nothing more. Not a folder, or some kind of connection.
Tried different computer, different cable, different USB-port and nothing. I don't know what more can I do, just to root my phone.
Thank you for your time!

Would help to know what error you are getting exactly
Better to use USB 2.0 ports only
Install the right drivers from HTC. Version 4.17 here: http://htcusbdriver.com/download/htc-usb-driver-v4-17-0-001
When your phone is booted in fastboot mode, you'll not see any folder from your phone and that is normal. You'll be able to use fastboot commands only.

Okay. So...I had a success, using windows 7 with USB 2.0.
Unblocked the bootloader and started to root. But when I finally got to the "Team Win Recovery Project v 2.5.0.0", there was the next surprise. Unable to mount internal storage & unable to mount data. Now what? I couldn't find the superuser zip file and couldn't finish the root. There are underwater-rocks everywhere...

Fastboot "waiting for device"

I already enabled OEM Unlock and USB Debugging in Developer options.
then I connected my LG G4 H811 to PC and confirmed MTP.
adb devices just shows:
List of devices attached
If I select USB charge instead of MTP, the adb devices shows:
List of devices attached:
LGH811***** device
Then I can do "adb reboot bootloader"
Phone shuts down and get on fastboot with this "waiting for device" I got stuck there.
Does anyone know the reason? Really need to unlock bootloader and then root my phone.
Thanks

Yeah I'm experiencing this too as well! I just recently updated to 20p and I am trying to root again. I was able to use fastboot to install twrp before. Don't know why this is happening.
This is what I did
In fatsboot I saw in device manager my phone was "rats I don't remember-something bootloader device" I chose update driver and browse my filkes and chose the marshal one. after that everything worked fine. Sry I'm an anxious person. Hopes this helps and if not or I could help more ask me more and hopefully I'll be more mellow lol.
Bootloader unrecognized
I used the app shared above and used it to locate the driver and ended up having to roll back to a previous driver and it worked in my case.

I'm at work won't get off for another 13 hours but like the post maybe two above here it was Marshall something. Go to device manager look for the boot loader adb interface can't remember exactly what it's called and double click it and use the menu option to rollback not update the driver and you should be good. I tried everything else including the one touch and only the rollback worked.
For my computer, it shown up as something like "Kedacom USB Device" in the Device Manager, but I rolled back that driver from 11 to 9 and it worked beautifully!

Do you have the driver? I have none to roll back to.
Okay...
Okay so yeah it says kedacom usb device, that gives me the waiting for device error...in device manager when im in fastboot mode find kedacom device and click on it to see android bootloader interface. Right click on the android bootloader interface and choose update driver, browse my computer for driver software, then let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer. From there I choose marshal London bootloader interface. From there everything works... don't have to restart computer of phone, everything works together perfect. Either it came with my computer or its from this install of adb... the 15 sec adb installer http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979. Try my steps see if it works!

I am having the "waiting for device" issue. But I dont have the "Marshal London" drivers. I have adb 15 sec drivers installed. Any idea where I could get them?
okay another try..
Okay have you tried, while the waiting for device prompt is up, instead of telling your computer you want to select from the list of drivers, to choose automatic: search online for the driver?

I had the exact same problem, it happened randomly after a normal reboot. I was considering taking it apart to disconnect the battery, try a deepflash cable and EDL but then I solved it.
The problem is your Windows driver. That's why you can't flash anything. Read up on Xiaomi forums about the problem. I can't remember exactly how I solved it, but I think I uninstalled the driver, plugged the phone back in, wait for the automatic install on Device Manager, then for it to update, do a roll back and then flash it via MiFlash.

Thanks. THat must be the problem. But i tried on my friends pc too and it did not work. Maybe Windows 7 is the problem? Im installing Windows 10.
Which OS do you have?

I don't think Windows 7 is the problem, but I've been using Windows 10 for 3 years (as Beta user) so I can't tell. Boot into EDL (Phone must be powered off, then hold both "Volume UP" and "Volume Down" as you plug it into the computer, only then do you let go) and tell me what driver your phone is seen as in Device Manager.

HELP- my OP3T not connecting to the PC

Hi all,
I have OP3T that just not recognized by my PC. I also have another OP3 that connects just fine to this PC. I tried dev menu and USB debug+ MTP, tried to wipe cache, install a new stock ROM downloaded from OP website, also installed the drivers in the PC.
device manager not shown anything when I connect the phone (no MTP device or Android device) and tried several cables and also another PC.
the phone was rooted until the last update (last December) and now I want to install custom ROM and I can't!
I think you want to fastboot flash a recovery?
What OS? Fastboot devices returns null?
yes, so I can install custom ROM eventually. my PC runs win 10 64X and right now my phone has stock android 8.0 (OOS).
what happens that when I connect my phone to the computer there is nothing going on- no now device in device manager and not a new driver pops, so I just can't flash recovery.
is there's an option to flash recovery without using the PC?

No generic MTP or Android device at all? On either PC, trying different ports (I know you said you tried multiple cables - which is good trouble shooting)? And no pop-up on the phone, allowing you to select MTP (move files, or whatever it says)?
If that I the case, I tend to think the USB port is damaged.

I've seen some folks package TWRP into a bootloader-flashable zip on other devices, but haven't seen anything like that on the 3T.
More importantly, I'd say it's very risky modding the phone with custom recovery and flashing a ROM, without having fastboot and adb tools available. You can get stuck in a real bad jam doing this, with tools to recover the device. I don't recommend it.
Yes I tried it all but there is no indication besides the device is charging while connected to the USB port.
OP support say that this might be the case, but I don't know if I want to replace it since my screen is cracked and it will brake it as soon as I open the phone
