Hello everyone, just get frustrated right now my brand new 5X Half-Bricked after trying to flash stock fastboot firmware of the A1 through EDL with mi flash. just over excited of this devices, as i'm not a new one on this stuff and things, so that i ignoring some post said that the mi A1 rom won't run/boot compatible with 5X. (some interesting post right here about 3 Variants Hacked Bootloader http://en.miui.com/thread-840402-1-1.html)
I put whole things needed togather (fastboot firmware of A1, and Mi5X, also Twrp and some of unbrick zip from the thread above) so i was thinking when everythings gone crazy and bad i just need to reverting back to stock fastboot firmware of MI5X and everything works fine.
i do backup my QCN file so the worst thing i losted the imei and baseband i just need to restore that backup. Then i start the stupid things with proud.
flashing the Mi A1 sucessfully without any error on mi-flash then power it on boom, as i predicted it won't be as easier and simple as that step. some error text appeared on my screen some related to bootloader things, okay i just go into fastboot and unlocking with type "fastboot oem unlock" done with success and thats also said in terminal. okay then i rebooted (no panic at all), so the warning text still, then appeared your system has been destroyed, okay than i put the mi A1 recovery and flashing that through the fastboot, its said error no such partitions "recovery"??? (bit panic here) but trying to type "fastboot boot tissot.img" (tissot the codename of A1) its boot and send me into recovery, flashing some A1 rom for 5X from xda still won't boot at all (start panic here ).
so everything i try here flashing stock miui also won;t even boot and see the homescreen. I give up and OK i just need to flash the stock 5X through EDL, rebooting to edl and then flashing the stock 5X and success flashing done without any error, so i rebooted but its only stuck at MI logo then restart itself (really PANIC), so i get into recovery (stock MIUI) and mybe wiping whole data and cache will help, but there's no changes still restart/rebooting itself , okay i need to flash again this time i downloding Develover versions, and put the devices into edl through test point this time (as now the bootloader are relocked after flashing the stock one).
after flasing done the device still won't even boot at all just stuck at MI logo, now i really need help anyone any advices will really help, thanks

I think you should not unlock the bootloader using the command fast boot OEM unlock,you should go to http://en.miui.com/unlock/ here and download the app to unlock it, and when you flash a new rom which is not miui,you must keep it unlock,do not fastboot OEM lock,that will cause it can not go into system and stuck in logo

Nope, that's the basic things and i really know how it works, As for now i''ve no ways to go / reach the homescreen at all, so i can't put my mi account in setting and linked the device into my acccount, its useless using the miunlock tools. And i can only do that commands right after i converted mine to A1 firmwares.
hi, finally, i know what problem you met, because i have met the same problem, the solution is ,you go to the fastboot ,first unlock the devices, then fastboot reboot,then you find you go to the system, then you go back to fastboot,and last ,you need to use the miflash to flash the rom,and it should work fine now,it seem when you are locked,the miflash can not really work
Last news, damn lucky bastard i'am got replaced units, lets see does we'll have some aosp goodies soon..

Use the mi unlock tool ,you can only unlock the phone when you are in fastboot mode,,turn off the phone,press the power and volume down bottom simultaneously,and you will be in fastboot mode
My N8(TA1012) is hard bricked. I tried OST 6.0.4 and 6.1.2 and got error. I enter only Twrp and download mode. In Twrp, my files are corrupt. How to I fix without service?
the easy guide is use ntool.
If can use flash system and boot.img

Looks like you have the unlocked bootloader. Do fastboot flash unlock "your unlock.key" than fastboot oem unlock_critical and confirm unlocking on your device. Critical area restricts booting of service boots so OST can`t flash it. When the critical area is unlocked you can flash anything you want. I have TA-1004 and it works for me. I have rolled back to Nougat from Oreo this method. Hope it helps you.

What error you get?
But if you you have really hard-bricked (broken or drowned) nothing will help. The chips may be broken permanently and only service-center can repair it. Flashing the device in this state may kill it! But if its just result of unseccessful software experiments - try to do as I said above.
Hi guys!
I have a little problem. A couple of days ago I soft bricked my phone,and there was a boot loop. But fortunatelly today I found the solution and now my phone working again. But I would like to revert everything because I cant uptade the system. When I uninstall the Magisk,and I restart the phone, I fall into the same problem,I got the boot loop and a lot of things. So I know the solution how to get out from the boot loop,but how can I restore my phone? I want to make a clean install and lock the bootloader.
Sorry my bad english

Unfortunately It's not working because the bootloader locked. And I cant do anything in fastboot mode. The only working command is fastboot boot xy.img. With this command I can boot my phone.
EDL mode?
Perhaps using test point to force edl and flash the rom thought miflash.
well my redmi 8 is stuck in a bootloop but the bootloader is locked.is there anything i can do? i tried some fastboot commands but all i got is FAILED (remote: device is locked. pls help i dont have a lot of money rn to buy a new phone
any help would be really appreciated
You can't flash anything if the bootloader is locked,you will need to take the phone to service centre so they can flash stock rom via EDL mode (you cannot do this since it requires special authorization login in miflash tool)
I tried to root my realme x2 pro using magisk. i patched boot.img and flashed via fastboot ( i was on latest update from realme ui2.0
RMX1931EX _11 _ F.12).
after booting into system all the google service crashed all service stopped and there were no google account on phone play store stopped working.
so i decided to re flash my device from begening and i wiped data from realme stock recovery and boot into fastboot and flashed system,vendor,boot,dtbo,vbmeta images and i reboot my phone.
From that moment my device is looping into bootloader.
I cant boot on any custom recovery, because it loops back into bootloader
If i flash stock recovery and boot into recovery, full white screen appears and my device stuck there.
In bootloader it says device state unlocked and secure boot yes. is this secure boot thing is creating this problem? or the latest patch of my system. I found that i cant flash custom recovery on realme ui 2.0 after bricking my phone.

Nah bruh still nothing i visited service centre twice and they said it's motherboard issue you need to change the whole motherboard which costs approx 4000 INR.
Who would do that it's just a software problem and also i found out that if device bootloader is locked then there is only 1 tool which can make it work again that is MSM TOOL and for that we need to do that outside in shop or somewhere, you can't flash at home as it needs user id & password and that we don't have, they charge like 800 to 900 INR.
I also tried the crack version of this tool but it doesn't detect the phone and doesn't work.

You can visit Realme Service Centre and ask them to flash the software they'll charge you around 177 to 200 INR and your phone will be flashed.
