Hello,
Recently my phone dropped and half of my touch screen stopped working. I have disassembled my phone just to try if the old lcd will work when I plug the connector out and in again. I discovered that no so I have ordered the new LCD. During the reparation I accidentally broke coaxial cable between the antenna and motherboard so I ordered the new one. Now phone worked, but there was no phone signal but display and everything else worked just fine. I have disassembled the phone again when the new coaxial cable arrived but I have discovered, that I have bought bad one because it did not work. So I left the phone disassembled and wait for another one.
After I assembled the phone with the second coaxial cable my phone does not show nothing on the screen, even on the old LCD. When I connect phone to the pc I got instantly to the fastboot and I can get out of it. After fastboot reboot I get again to the fastboot.
Sometimes the LCD powers up but does not show nothing, and when the phone is in the charger the diode is red.
Does anybody have any idea how can I fix this problem?
I have tried to boot the phone without camera, speaker, antena, but nothing worked.
Anyone?
Hi all,
I have two problems, hoping someone can help with either of them:
1. I recently had a screen replacement done at a non-official repair shop (after Moto UK quoted me £180 for a screen repair, two thirds of what I paid for the phone when I bought it). A few weeks in, this new screen went black, only shows random colours every now and then when I press the power button. The digitizer works, as I can take calls, decrypt the phone when re-booting etc. - is there a chance something is off with the connector or is the screen gone for good?
2. I'm also trying to recover some of the data off the phone, however for some reason the USB connection seems to have stopped working as well. When plugging into my Windows 10 laptop earlier, I got dozens of error messages saying the XT1902 had closed the connection or something, now when I plug in nothing happens at all. The phone is switched on and working (I hear notification sounds, can call the phone and accept the call etc.) - any ideas what's going on here?
Any hints are greatly appreciated!
So, my husband had a Mi5 64GB phone, the bootloader is unlocked, xiaomi.eu latest stable multi-rom was on it.
A couple of weeks ago it went dead all of a sudden. There was no live in it at all. I could not put it on, it was not recognized it was not recognised by the pc (I never linked it to the pc, so I had to install adb and miflash), no fastboot, no bootloader, nothing at all.
When charging the phone stayed cool, there were no lights, no blinking lights, again nothing.
So, as it was still in the guarantee period, I send it to a technician and got it back working again, the latest xiaomi.eu development rom was installed by the technician.
In the meanwhile my husband bought a new phone, and, as I had dropped my Mi3, I could upgrade to his Mi5.
But, after cleaning up the phone, I had some problems. I flashed something with TWRP, which worked, it booted up to miui. Then I wanted to reboot and the phone just Now, only two weeks after the repair, the phone again drops dead, exactly the same as the previous time. So I decided not to send it to the technician, as it is in another country and I have to pay the sending cost and it obviously did not do much.
What I then did get off the backpart of the phone, unscrew the top part of the phone (yes, I now broke the seal, bye bye guarantee) and I did the test point method multiple times. I did it after 'charging' the whole night. Sadly, this does not work. The computer does not recognise the phone.
What I also tried was holding a number of key combinations down a couple minutes (volume up + volume down + power), (volume down + power) and (volume up + power). So, I am now out of ideas.
The phone seems really dead, but the technician also got it working again... so I know there has to be a way to solve the problem.
Does anyone have a good suggestion (except from giving up, take my lossed and bury the phone)?
Last time i had my phone completely dead like this i held fastboot combination for 5 minutes then fastboot mode came up. And then oressing twrp combination, twrp came up and the rest was fine laterwards. I had this issue 3 times till now. And solved it similarly

Thanks, I will try this. With or without the phone plugged into the charger?

Well, power + volume down for 5 minutes does not give me anything (not charging).
Well, I tried it again and now it did work! Thank you!!!!

So, what I gather now with bricked Mi5 with unlocked bootloader is the following.
If the Mi5 is dead (black screen, no way to get it on), no charging light even when charging, then:
a) If it is recognised by the PC with Qualcomm 9008 try to solve it with the test points method
b) If it is not recognised by the PC, try to hold the power button + volume (= fastboot mode) down for 5 minutes or so (perhaps a couple tries are needed) and then when the bunny is on the screen power button + volume up (= recovery mode) to solve it. What I did do was charge it for a while before trying this.

If you want qualcomm 9008 open correctly then u should have to disconnect battery strips form phone's board then perform test points with proper 9008 drivers then see the results.

Hello,
I'm attempting to use hardware key combinations in order to boot into Fastboot mode, e.g.. Power + volume up & power + volume down.
The phone is unresponsive. But the phone boots normally when only pressing the power button.
I've read the tutorial about launching Fastboot through a PC connection here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/rog-phone-2/help/howv-to-phone-fastboot-mode-screenshots-t3966727
But in this case, that wont be an option since my display doesn't work, hence there's no way to accept ABD-permissions when prompted on the phones' screen.
I was initially trying to pull all the data from the phone through ADB. When I realized I hadn't accepted my PC's ADB permissions on my ROG Phone, I had to rethink..
So I thought I could plant my PC's RSA-key (for accepting ADB) in my ROG Phones storage through Fastboot, just pushing the file.
I was dumbfounded when I discovered my ROG Phone 2 to be the only android device I've owned, which seemingly doesn't allow for a raw manual boot into Fastboot? CAN THIS REALLY BE THE CASE?
Any input would be highly appreciated
EDIT: I've ordered an USB-c hub for inputting kb+m & HDMI, which should allow me to accept the permissions. Although some of the data I'm trying to reach are time sensitive, any second rescued would be of value!
Similar problem
Hello,
I have a similar problem. My display is broken but the phone seems to still work. I bought an USB-C hub, but when I connect the phone to the TV (via the side USB port) it only shows a white "Asus rog" logo for a few seconds and then vanishes. When I click the mouse the logo reappears again for a few seconds.
Did it work with the hub you got? Do you have an other idea? I need the data that ist sadly still on the phone.
Thank you for your help.

I did work with the usb-c hub. Never saw any white ASUS ROG logo, I'm not sure what's going on with your phone. Also I later replaced the screen third-party, since ASUS charges a lot of money and insists on factory reseting the phone. So you could always do the latter if nothing else works. Send me a PM if you want the display I got.
My phone went to an endless bootloop after a botched attempt to install TWRP. I tried hard pressing the power button to no avail, and I can't access fastboot either. That's why I removed the back cover and disconnected the flex cable from the battery on the phone's motherboard.
Later on, I reconnected my phone's battery after my shift ended, then I tried to flash my stock rom through SP Flash Tool + bypass tool python script and it went through with a success. However, this time, my screen seems to be completely dead but my phone is still showing some signs of life (short vibration when pressing the power button, but since then it seems that it takes a few seconds more from pressing the power button to turn it on. ) I reconnected and disconnected everything to see whether or not I missed out something but the issue still persists.
The computer reads the device as "Android ADB interface" and the adb console reads it as *device id* unauthorized when I ran adb devices command. There's no notification light whenever I plug it into the charger.
Is my screen dead, or is my motherboard toast? I need to know as I don't want to spend money to buy a replacement LCD only to know that the motherboard's dead. I don't really care about the IMEI as I'm just going to use it as an authorization device for work. I can just always connect to Wi-Fi. Please advise.
One problem after another, so it seems.
Turns out I already unbricked the phone, but the thing is that my display's backlight got busted for some reason. Unless I shine a flashlight through it, I won't know what's in the screen. I'm currently on the way to get a replacement screen, and a new battery cover.
I guess this will be the last Xiaomi device that I'll ever get. This is the only time that I experienced such flimsy build quality since the LG G4.
Maybe you have destroyed a lil cable or something.
