Need super help - Mi 8 -System has been destroyed - Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers

Hi all
Sorry that my vocabulary wont be so pro.
I flashed yesterday EU stable rom 10.0.1.0.
Today I flashed back global 8.8.30 using twrp, wiped data and it has finish ok, but made loop boot and backed to twrp once again.
then flashed 9.5.13.0 global, ended OK, didn't boot well and backed me to recovery screen.
by ADB I tried to go back to TWRP and it boot to "the system has been destroyed".
Nothing i do not help, by info with ADB looks like the bootlouder is closed some how.
I cannot open in since it is writing me that the account not connected to the to the phone, and i cannot do anything since the phone is not going up.
any ideas?

if this is a Chinese version phone, you need to flash the region fix, and also the dm-verity disabler after the ROM and also wipe DATA.

If you don't have TWRP anymore, and MIflashtool isn't working, then if your phone is still unlocked, flash the TWRP again through fastboot. If not, i'm not sure.
I have a Chinese to Global thread here-->https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-8/help/chinese-mi8-to-global-instructions-t3839665

I not 100% sure but I will go for that also, its sad but probably he screw his phone.
1. he confirm he have locked bootloader
2. no access to system nor miflash detect so no bootloader unlock
3. no bootloader, so no flashing twrp.
I dont have any good news, nor any solution to even help you.

Yep, everywhere I've seen MIUI 10 10.x stable have ARB. It's the reason I haven't flashed it, as I read before..

It's risky because if the ROM is not right it will mess up your phone completly.
Did you download it from the XDA thread, right?

Try a different USB port or cable... Somehow solved it for me. Keep flashing the latest fastboot version and remain patient

I faced something like this...stock rom was not flashing...some error shows up... someone told me to change the fastboot rom file directory...i copied the rom to my desktop...thn it worked...i don't know if it would help...but why not give it a try
Thanks to everybody who gave their advice here. For me, it was a PC problem (or adb driver problem). I factory reset my PC cause I have cloud backup, and started the process clean. From there, I only downloaded Minimal ADB and Fastboot. Then I tried MiFlash, and the flashing process went through without any errors this time.
Hello,
I have the same problem, screen stuck on Fastboot.
It happened after having cleared up too much with TWRP.
I can't figure out how to flash back the original rom.
I see lot of tutorials and roms but nothing really clear.
I downloaded Mi Flash Pro.
Questions:
- Where can I find the last official rom for Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro / Redmi K20 Pro? (for European Union)
- How can I use Mi Flash Pro to re-install it back?
Thanks a lot for your help

Mi 9 Restoring firmware

TLDR: I tried installing AEX rom and I bricked my mi9, getting it in a fastboot loop. Flashed a bunch of things and now I think my firmware is messed up. Help.
First I flashed TWRP, then I flashed the AEX rom and gapps, but phone got in bootloop, then I tried just flashing the ROM and it worked. After I flashed gaps it got into bootloop again.
Then I read the instructions from the AEX thread and I flash the recommended Firmware file (v9.6.13), and the flash failed.
I wiped everything, reflashed the ROM without gapps, and at restart the phone. Got stuck in fastboot.
Tried reinstalling TWRP with no success. Tried flashing MIUI with their flash tool but it didn't ended the flash procedure even after 20 minutes...
I tried to directly boot the recovery image (TWRP) and I was surprised that the phone booted in MIUI, but wifi wasn't working. Did not test anything else. Restarting the phone got me again in fastboot loop.
I tried again flashing with mi flash tool and this time was succesfull.
Then I tried to flash a MIUI eu ROM and got the phone again in fastboot loop. Flash was succesfull, but when restarting TWRP said that there is no OS installed.
I decided to give up and flash global MIUI 10.2.13 back.
But now my phone has some problems. Auto brightness doesn't work and video recording freezes the camera app when image stabilization is enabled.
So, is there a way to reflash 10.2.13 rom firmware using mi flash tool?
I suppose the first Firmware flash that was unsuccessful messed the firmware up...
Or how do I get my phone back to factory status...
I suppose v9.6.13 firmware is China developer and was an upgrade and that I should downgrade to 10.2.13 rom firmware.
Or flashing developer global will solve the problem? And how do I do that?

Have you ever tried fastboot rom ? Now it's the only solution to recover your phone !

Hmm, so where are you at now!? Have you got twrp installed? and 10.2.13 but with issues, right? or are you on stock recovery?
Current status: I managed to flash fastboot global ROM in mi flash, and stock recovery.
But the firmware is messed up.
Camera doesn't work well. And from normal use I saw that Gyroscope, light sensor and compas aren't working at all...
Phone reboots itself and I can't unlock it because pattern isn-t recognized anymore, untill I reset it by long pressing the power button.
From CIT menu gyro, light sensor and compass are definitely not working.
Would flashing latest firmware from TWRP be a possible solution? My bootloader is still unlocked and I can flash TWRP.
Or should I format vendor partition first? And then flash firmware?
Fastboot flash did solved firmware problem.

To be honest I'm not entirely sure if it'll help, but, I'd put global stable flashable zip on otg, then I'd flash twrp again, boot to twrp using buttons not commands, wipe cache, dalvik, vendor, system, data, internal. Then format data, swiping with confirmation 'yes'. Then flash latest global again over the clean device from otg. You could try using mauronfrio's twrp 3.3.1-35 instead of the one you linked get it here. That's just what I'd try, can't say whether it'll help and no guarantees it'll fix anything... Let us know the outcome bud.
You can download the latest flashable rom from here
I can't see why ur sensors etc aren't working anymore, it's got to be all software related me thinks
Do not try to reboot after wipes, you'll have nothing installed

Correct me if I am wrong, but flashing a stock MIUI zip form twrp won't work.
Or you are saying that I should flash a xiaomi eu ROM?
Got another sugestion:
Someone said that there is the posibility that mi flash didn't flash persist partition and that I should try to force flash it.
Referred thread here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/re.../how-to-flash-persist-partiton-redmi-t3830310
Is this a possibility?
And shouldn't mi flash reflash everything?

Hold tight bud, just checking. I remember doing that - and the stock rom flashes but you no longer have twrp, it flashes the whole system/vendor including recovery. But hang on 'cos I might be recalling my pocophone F1 for that proceedure. The reason I suggest to reflash twrp is simply to have better control over a fully clean wipe, before progressing to flash rom again. Like I say, hang on just checking...

Yes, miflash should flash everything, but you say you started flashing other stuff when it all went wrong, so I'm really not sure what's happened to ur device. Hang on anyway, still checking on the flashable zip ..
---------- Post added at 09:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:49 PM ----------
Nope, I think you're right, it was the poco I was getting muddled with - haven't had to do this in while (poco has flashable stock zips somewhere...). It is possible to do it with lazy flasher, but that may start getting messy again. Have you tried re-flashing fastboot? Can you wipe much at all in the stock recovery - again, I can't remember.
Failing that, yeah, I'd seriously consider flashing twrp and flashing mi-globe or eu rom. I prefer mi-globe (although currently using beast rom) over eu simply because you can customize it more on the website. Though, I wouldn't recommend pre-rooting it. Root after, if need be. Any way, we'll cross that bridge later... For now just try to re-flash

Didn't get this.
Is it ok to format vendor partition? will it be recreated wen flashing again? using mi flash or from twrp?

I'm pretty sure you won't be able to wipe much in stock recovery, but just wipe what you can and try and re-flash fastboot. Don't flash twrp yet. You could try downloading again the fastboot file, in case of any corruption. Hopefully on the second flash all will be well. But that said, it should've been OK on the first flash :/ in theory
just flashed xiaomi eu rom and everything seems to work now. All sensors are working.
I had to disable signature check, and i got an mounting /system error -> got the message that is installed without changes... whatever that means
And now in TWRP, I think, my files are encrypted without enabling it.
Will try other roms later.
Thanks for the help.

Question I got stuck after download some Updates via OTA

Hi there
I am a newbie of Xiaomi Phone. I got a used Mi 11 Ultra phone from a reputable eBay User. My phone is currently installed with a stable version called MIUI 13/.0 (V13.0.12.0.SKACNXM STABLE). Since I am new to this phone, I click on system updates and managed to download a file called xiaomi.eu_Multi_M11Pro_M11Ultra_V13.0.13.0.SKACNXM_618A7FFAB_V13-12.ZIP Via OTA Updates.
After I click on the Updates Button, I got a screen with a green button : "Check MD5 & Install", after a while, I got a pop up screen says :Your device supports "Seamless System Updates",
I click on the OK button, also click on the OK button for the internal storage is encrypted.
Finally, to ask me whether I would like to continue to install the Updates, I choose YES and end up stuck at the Main Menu with 5 choices: Reboot, Wipe Data, Connect with MiAssistant, Safe Mode and Repair Mode. There are no choice for me to install the Updates.
Can someone give me a hand please ?
Many thanks in advance.

Ok, what do you want to do, update it to Chinese version or flash another version?
Do you know the Xiaomi EU roms?
For me looks like ROM what you had before was FASTBOOT installed xiaomi.eu stable, and then they started rolling out TWRP updates, and because you didn't have TWRP its reboot in stock recovery ?...
Can you boot into TWRP from this link:https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...eamwin-recovery-project.4374111/post-87360425
Please use this fastboot command
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
, first TWRP boot will be in Chinese language, please change it to English, enter your unlock PIN, then find this update file downloaded by updater.
Let us know if that's help
I'm right, your current ROM is a FASTBOOT version (so without TWRP)

You didn't focus on details ,my friend
He has already installed xiaomi.eu custom ROM, if you closely check his pictures from his first post - Updater app downloaded new version of xiaomi.eu CUSTOM ROM, so yeah he has already unlocked bootloader, and installed FASTBOOT version of CUSTOM ROM, the version what Updater app downloaded was released to be installed with TWRP (he didn't have TWRP on his phone yet) - so he need boot into TWRP and install update manually.

because after flashing the ROM, it is asked to continue booting.

Hi gomcse2002,
Has your problem been solved?
If so, how did you do it, if you don't mind me asking.
I've had the same exact concern on my Mi 11 Ultra, which sadly has NOT been resolved yet.
Thanks.
Which rom(full name)?

Question Bootloader

Hi recently I tried to install TWRP on my xiaomi 12 pro but instead it made my phone stuck on fastboot, I used mi flash to flash it to the normal rom but it said something about it being not supported so I picked wipe date on the phone and tried to install a different version but, now apparently the phone is locked and I do not know how to unlock it to flash it again. any help will be appreciated please.
Things I've tried
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flashing unlock
Mi flash - I cant flash because the device is locked and I have not logged in with a Mi account.

Which version?
So as not to make the same mistake again if we manage to save the phone.
Which TWRP and which command.
For Miflash you have probably left the flash and lock box checked.
If you could post the Miflash log (Miflash log folder)
I used this guide to install twrp
I put global rom instead of europe rom which came with my phone
I do have another xiaomi device I was wondering it I could somehow transfer the account to my bricked phone then flash it that way

Is the version of your phone Chinese with a Xiaomi EU rom?
I bought it from Here
It says in the description that 'The initial Chinese version has been updated to a global ROM.'
so I'm not sure when I got it I checked the rom and it said the Europe version I tried to update the version but when it was ready to install it said 'your device supports twrp' and I clicked ok to the instructions and when the device booted back up it was in recovery mode and I pressed restart and no updates were made.

It is a Chinese version.
post the Miflash log (Miflash log folder) so I can check what you did.
The log is between 20 and 25 KB and starts like this
[23:28:45 eeab043a]:MiFlash 2020.3.14.0
[23:28:45 eeab043a]:vboytest index:1
[23:28:45 eeab043a]:idproduct: 53261 idvendor: 6353
I think I deleted the one that I used I was on my i've just given up after hours of trying to fix it

As you have on my tutorial, this is the mistake not to do with a Chinese device.
Now to be sure, flash a Chinese rom with Miflash by checking the Clean all box.
Either the phone works again or not, Miflash will give you the error, surely 'lock state'
yes it says failed remote: erase is not allowed in lock state, im trying to get out of that mode I need help with that

Question Stuck in fastboot after trying to install PixelExperience :(

Hey everyone
I recently got this phone and went through the bootloader unlock process.
I then tried to follow the instructions on this page https://wiki.pixelexperience.org/devices/rosemary/install/ to get this rom installed but somehow ****ed it up.
Everything went well until I tried to flash the recovery img from this page: https://get.pixelexperience.org/rosemary (i downloaded the 13 plus recovery img).
I flashed the img via fastboot but after that I got stuck in fastboot. The phone is stuck in a bootloop when I try to reboot into recovery or normal boot. The only thing I can get back into is fastboot.
Would really appreciate any help to get the phone working again. Im not new to android custom roms but Im new to xiaomi phones and Im a little lost
Thanks.
OK nevermind I successfully got the phone booting again with miflash tool by reflashing an official firmware...
Greetings!
You can install the rom via adb sideload too. Put on some random recovery (see my tutorial here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/twrp-on-android-12.4522273/), and start adb sideload.
Then,
adb sideload insert_package_name.zip

As this phone has an MTK processor, we don't really have a recovery image, it's stored in the boot img I suppose. That link, you can download the official rom to this. DISCLAIMER: There are two types of ROMs listed here, one type is fastboot, that you need now in order to flash it through a computer for example. The another type is the recovery rom, that you can flash from recovery like a magisk package, or anything flashable zip, or with adb sideload.
https://mifirm.net
You should choose global if you are in Europe, but it's suitable for devices in the US or USA probably, ony feature differences are here between an EEA and Global rom.
Also, if you install pixel experience recovery, you can install the firmware by going into recovery, and do it via sideload. Or, you can try flashing the rom with TWRP (tutorial linked below), but then you won't able to install updates automatically.
One question: Did you checked in OEM unlocking in developer options before flashed PE?
Hope it helps!
Yeah, I did checked the oem unlocking. I think the reason why i failed because my bootloader probably updated and I forgot to check. You need bootloader version 12.5.16.0.RKLMIXM to install the pixel experience. Also thank for help
Greetings!
You can install the rom via adb sideload too. Put on some random recovery (see my tutorial here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/members/gurtnyi.11842195), and start adb sideload.
Then,
adb sideload insert_package_name.zip

Can I do that on newer firmware or should I roll back to version 12.5.16.0.RKLMIXM? And if I roll back then I need to unlock device again?
I think you can. I've flashed it successfully on the latest version too. Currently I don't use PE but it was good for me.
Well, regarding to the unlock, it's not a big deal, you don't have to wait 168h again, once you've firstly unlocked your device, you can re-unlock it again, and again, no matter how many times, you don't have to wait a lot again.
But depending on how you rollback it,
I mean, with xiaomi flasher (i think that's its name) you can choose between clean all and lock, save userdata, and clean all, but in the first case, it'll lock back the bootloader. With SP flash tool (if you need, I can provide a link for the modified version of it, that doesn't require an auth file, but if fails, you need a python script, I can link that too), as I remember it won't lock back the device, but I'm not a 100% sure
Hope it helps!

Corrected, thank you!
Thank you! I managed to install PE by rolling back to MIUI 12.5. Sideload unfortunatly not working on stock recovery.

Happy to hear that!
By the way, yes, pe recovery is better for sideloading, or eventually any not stock recovery. Also, if you install PE recovery, you can apply updates automatically, and in the future you won't need to flash it manually.
