Hey!!! Just flash in EDL Mode, enter in fastboot mode "fastboot oem edl" command then flash. That worked to me, hope works to you as well

HELP!! Bricked MI 8 SE

Hello,
I bricked Mi 8 SE with locked bootloader and no recovery... After Mi logo, a message "The system has been destroyed" appears.
How can I flash the stock rom without waiting for unlock permission? Is there any way to enter EDL mode without opening the device?
What you did?
Tried to change from stable to dev with xiaomitool. Now only fastboot is available but it's useless with a locked bootloader. Perphaps I can restore the device with mi pc suite? It's does not seem to recognize the device though

If you can access to Fastboot then you should be able to install stock miui fastboot rom. You can find the rom here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-8/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-2-0703-t3812600
Instructions for fastboot installation: http://en.miui.com/a-234.html
Sorry I overlooked you are using Mi8 SE. In this case you should wait official stock fastboot rom. The rom will be available on official en.miui.com
Hi
I have the same problem
you did not find a solution?
I have already opened the device and tried to download via EDL MIFlash
But it did not work out
the error always appears ERROR: Only nop and sig tag can be recevied before authentication.
and after the "You are not authorized to Download !!!"
In my case, I was able to boot the device by typing "fastboot continue" in fastboot mode (if you see the offline battery charging screen do it twice).

Unlock critical, enter edl mode, then flash firmware using mi flash
same issue
hi bud.
got a very similar issue, except mine packed in automatically. did you manage to get yours fixed?

these steps should work if you do that properly.
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
enter edl mode
Code:
fastboot oem edl
(or by test point method)
BTW it is just a simple SoftBrick which is totally solvable.
If your boot-loader is not get blocked then you can do it with ADB sideload but if BT is blocked then the only way remains is the EDL flash mode.
Hey , thank you so mush, I tried since yesterday and your method is the only one that save my phone !

Sorry my bad english
I had this problem too. I was trying to flash stock jasmine rom from my amd ryzen pc and this happened. It was the first time I was using ryzen pc for flashing. In a reddit post, I saw this: "fastboot is broken on ryzen pcs". Then I tried to flash from my intel laptop and problem solved.

PLEASE HELP - Device Bricked - edl waiting for device

Hello I have a Mi A2 with ONE.
I tried to install Mi6X following this guide:
Guide
I got to step 9:
9- Click Refresh on Mi Flash Then choose Clean all and click flash
Then I got this error:
Error oem edl miflash tool, ACK count don't match
Then I tryed instead to install Jasmine again, and I started getting this error:
Cannot receive hello packet,MiFlash is trying to reset status
And then I was stupid enough to unplug my phone
THE ACTUAL PROBLEM (rigth now)
1. My phone will start, then stay at Mi(mi.com) logo indefinitely.
2. I can't enter download mode, Vol + and power will bring me the Mi logo again and again.
3. Can enter Fastboot mode... BUT...
-Mi flash don't detect it
-miflash_unlock don't detect it
-edl.cmd, unlock auto, and unlock critical say "< waiting for device >"
Edit: I solved the problem using test point to enter EDL mode, then It connected and I could flash it.
our phones (mia2) are weird devices to be honest, mine was recently bricked after choosing the "reboot to bootloader" option in twrp. id recommend you to go to mi service center if your phone is still in warranty

Sorry, can you help me unsderstand a little.
I found this guide:

But none of my Roms (Jasmine or Wayne) have a file that's named payload.bin
I feel like I am missing something
Edit:
I found that ota updates are the ones with the payload.bin file followed the guide and everything, but fastboot bring almost the same error that EDL brings:
< Waiting for any device >
Can it be that my cable somehow magically from one conection to another stoped working or something? I asked a friend for his cable... Cs are not as common in this country yet.

Did you flash hex kernel? You know that phone on 6x miui rom will not boot if you havent flash custom kernel after miui?
Mi flash tool won't work with locked bootloader
Install adb drivers and write command
' abd oem edl '
If ur phones connects
Than u can use mi flash tool

I followed this guide to unlock bootloader previous to the guide on flashing of the first post:
GUIDE
The .bat that you run there actually executes "fastboot oem unlock". I did that part without any problem, the phone screen asked for confirmation and everything fine. After succefully unlocking bootloader I followed the guide on flashing Miui 10.
Now even that "fastboot oem unlock" will show this message:
< waiting for any device >

Please, keep us updated.
I had the same issues like you months ago. The only solution you buy a pentalobe 0.8mm for iphone, a small philips screw driver, and a tweezer. Flash your phone in EDL mode. You need to contact 2 pins. You can search the location of the pins, how to disassemble the phone by googling it. then just flash Mi A2 stock ROM first, then convert it to Mi 6X again. I

Redmi 4 (Santoni) bricked. Please help.

I unlocked my redmi 4 (Santoni) boot loader and flashed pixel experience ROM (https://mega.nz/#F!INZgnAZI!9fuWhfCuazOO5YPBjxGlmA). It was working fine for a few days (Small heating issue was there). Then one day while i was charging the phone the phone turned off and never turn back on. When i try to switch on the mi logo flashes for a split second and then turns off. I tried to get into recovery but couldn't.
I can get into fastboot mode. I tried flashing the phone using Mi flash tool and fastboot rom. But it shows an error "flash tz error". When i tried an old version of mi flash tool i get the "Unspecified error (0x80004005: FAILED (remote: Critical partition flashing is not allowed))

Have you tried installing TWRP via fastboot?
I had the same exact problem, i put my phone on charge & when i came back to check it was switched off. It wouldn't turn on except the mi logo. I tried to flash through fastboot turns out my bootloader was re-locked for some reason. I had to re-unlock it then proceed on to fash fastboot miui rom. Check if your bootloader is locked or not.

This is a good idea! Probably u first try to install trwp in fastboot mode. If this doesn't work try to unlock bootloader again and then install trwp.
When all these Option doesn't work u still can open the phone and use edl fastboot mode to flash miui again.

Tried unlocking boot loader and was not successful because the phone was bricked. My only option was to use edl test point. Now i installed miui 11. (Aprart from some minor bugs which can be eliminated by reflashing some other roms) Thank you guys. Now my phone is successfully unbricked.
For somebody who is having the same issues,
My phone (Redmi 4_Santoni) was completely bricked. The only thing i can access was fastboot by pressing the volume down + Power button combination. But i could not install twrp or any other recovery because my boot loader was locked. I got it fixed completely with the help of you guys (Thanks again) and i want to share the procedure i went through.
Condition: Completely bricked with only fastboot access, Locked bootloader.
I tried this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j27x5iJSS40) but failed because i could not access recovery. So my only solution was to use edl test point flashing. I followed this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74818435&postcount=3. It was very easy to do. But in the device manager (Press Windows key + R and then type devmgmt.msc and press enter) instead of showing "Qualcomm HS-USB QDloader 9008", the device is shown as "Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E". The problem was you have to plug in in USB cable while the test points is being connected with a pair of tweezers or a paperclip as shown in the link above.
Make sure you already downloaded the latest mi flash tool from here https://xiaomiflashtool.com/ and download fast boot rom from the official website. (Go to https://en.miui.com/ Click rom downloads. Click flashing guide. Download the fastboot rom from there for your device.) Now flash your device using mi flash tool and voila. your phone is unbricked.
Thank you guys..
