Question regarding bootloop - Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe

Hi all,
First of let me start by saying I have a Mi 9T and I know that it has its own forum, but I didn't find a solution to my problem there, so I thought I'd ask in this forum as well, since the devices look a lot like each other but here are more people.
So my problem is I got stuck in a bootloop which I can't seem to get out of. I can boot into fastboot mode and adb fastboot AND Miflash recognize my device, so I'm able to flash things, but the bootloop still stays.
I started on global rom, and then installed twrp. Then I flashed the latest 9.7.25 ROM from mi-globe for MI 9T. It booted up fine, but my TWRP was removed and I couldn't install it anymore like the first time. For some reason I did a factory reset then. And tried to flash a new ROM by using MiFlash. It said it was succesfull, but it only took 1 second and it didn't automatically boot (it stayed in fastboot mode). I tried again and it said anti-rollback error.
So that didn't work, so I tried flashing boot.img, recovery.img and system,img seperately by using adb fastboot. That worked and it booted normally. I went through the startup configuration like selecting wifi network and gmail,etc. But after trying to set a fingerprint, the screen went completely black but the phone was still on. I could reboot it normally, but when the lockscreen came up or I tried to use fingerprint scanner it went black completeley every time.
I was desperate, so I used 'fastboot erase system -w' in adb fastboot, which is a factory reset apparently. Then I flashed the 3 .img files like I did before, but this time it didn't boot, but went into bootloop.
I also tried 'fastboot boot twrp.img' which also didn't get me into twrp, it just goes to bootloop again.
So to summarize: I CAN get into fastboot and adb fastboot and miflash DO recognize my device, but I can't get out of bootloop no matter what I flash.
Does anyone know a solution for this problem? I would be very thankful.
I also don't understand why flashing or booting TWRP doesn't work, while it worked the first time. I also don't understand why flashing the 3 .img files doesn't work this time, like it used to work the first time.
Btw my anti getvar is 1.

Are you using windows 10? Had same issue with MiFlash and had to use a laptop with earlier version of Windows to get it working

I do, but I don't have anything else than that. Are you sure that was the problem and not something else?

I've not had your issue but that was causing the flash tool to just carry out the task in 1 second, which isn't possible

i have the same situation here. did your issue solve?

After flashing TWRP and still in fastboot, hold power and vol+. Keep both held while it reboots, it takes a few seconds. When the Redmi logo appears and the phone vibrates release the power button. Keep holding the vol+ button until it boots into TWRP.

this was the first thing i tried, but it keeps rebooting to fastboot, if i hold it longer it wil just reboot again. i've tried miflash, but miflash can't find a flash all.bat and when i go into explorer i can't find it either.
problem solved, i installed another version of twrp, deleted it and reinstalled the first one. thanks for all answers, it really helped along
Hey glad to hear you solved the issue. What version of TWRP did you end up flashing and what tool did you use to flash it? I'm facing a similar issue.
Thanks

I can't answer for OP, but he looks to have abandoned the thread.
What I can recommend from personal experience is that using latest version of TWRP - I think it's 4.3.3 (can't tell you exactly, as I'm writing this without checking my laptop on which I have the TWRP and ROM files) - will resolve all your problems.
Thanks for your reply I actually just managed to get root/TWRP/Magisk to work. A lot of the TWRP recovery images that I encountered just caused the phone to boot loop or get stuck on fastboot mode.
The TWRP that worked for me was twrp-3.3.1-15-raphael-mauronofrio.img
following:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.3.1-15-raphael-mauronofrio.img
For reference I have the global Mi 9T Pro

I am also having this issue, after doing the exact same thing you did...
Would you be able to post the download link you got your TWRP version from? And maybe go into a little more detail about the reinstalling order (if that is important)?
Also the "mauronofrio" version didn't work (I have the Mi 9T), are there any other options out there?
Many thanks for any responses

Did you ever get this solved? I'm in a similar situation after what I thought was a normal ROM flashing.
EDIT: Nevermind. Got it fixed using MiFlash.

Hey sorry didn't see your reply... I haven't had time in the last month to look at it so I'm still stuck. How did you fix it using MiFlash? Did you make it force load TWRP onto the phone or something?
I think there is definitely something wrong with the partition, as when I plug it into the computer it no longer comes up in "my computer" - although I do have the MIUI recovery working again.
Cheers

I just flashed a full fastboot MIUI ROM in fastboot using the MiFlash portable tool. No need to do anything in recovery.
Edit: You can find fastboot ROMs from the OP of this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/how-to/redmi-k20-pro-firmware-10-3-8-0-9-6-13-t3939647/ (labeled as ...fastboot)

I'm still not able to get TWRP working... I think all of my problems will be solved as soon as I can get into it, but each time I load the recovery image on (using command prompt) it says it completes, but when I try to reboot it into recovery mode it never works (if I use command prompt to reboot into recovery it just shuts down but if I hold the button combination it either reboots back into fastboot or the original MIUI recovery mode - and yes, I am using the right button combinations).
I've tried every version of TWRP I could find, so I'm certain its not a problem with the recovery image itself... Have you or anyone else had this happen before? It's so infuriating that it just doesn't work, but I don't know why...
BTW the commands I'm using are
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "recovery.img"
(which works) and then
Code:
fastboot boot "recovery.img"
(which gives 2 OKs, but the phone just turns off).
(this all after setting the directory to my adb folder)

Xiaomi Mi 9 stuck in a bootloop, now with no OS. Help needed

Yeah, I'm not feeling very smart right now.
Short story:
Accidentally wiped OS in TWRP, now only seem to have access to fastboot. Can I fix this? Flash another ROM? Anything? Bootloader is unlocked, can't seem to get into TWRP anymore. Power + Volume up only takes me to fastboot again.
Long story:
Magisk module caused a bootloop. Wanting to try and avoid a factory reset, I tried sideloading Magisk for TWRP which didn't work, ultimately gave up and wanted to perform a factory reset via TWRP, but I've been working late and ticked the wrong box without thinking. Bad idea, I know. Wiped system, yes.
Aside from feeling exceptionally stupid, can this situation be salvaged? The phone doesn't switch off, it just sits in fastboot. I have Minimal ADB and Fastboot on my PC. Any help will be greatly appreciated, really.
Just in case anyone else ends up with a similar problem, the resolution was fortunately rather straightforward - I needed to grab the Mi Flash tool (as it turns out, this version worked best), stock firmware for my version, go into fastboot (which was no issue as that was the only thing my phone would do) and then open the Mi Flash tool and flashing the firmware was pretty straightforward from there. I even managed to get a BSOD during the process, but it's not like it could get any worse, anyway. Rebooted, restarted the process and about 10-15 minutes later, my phone was happily booting again.

With Fastboot mode and Mi flash as fail safes , we can flash to our hears content with no worries !
Also a more automated tool is a custom mi flash tool by a developer called XiaimiToolV2 ,which has a dedicated mode for bricked phones or downloads the latest fastboot roms for you.

I had excaxtly that witha my mi5 , completely dead .
Leave it on the charger for a little bit,mine after an unsuccessful flash with mi flash (catastrophic error message) it turned back on.
IF not download XiaomiTool V2 and try the option for bricked phones.
I tried that yesterday but that option is still in development. Only the modifications one is supported currently. As for the issue mentioned, maybe it's really just a matter of charging the phone first. Can't hurt either way.

Try to use the EDL mode
How to force it to EDL by key combination or maybe deep flash cable ?
My Mi account is authorized for EDL flash but I cant get Mi9 into EDL mode on my PC ( Windows10 )
No OS, but working TWRP
Hi,
I have a similar problem with my mi 9.
I followed a really bad description for the update xiaomi.eu from MIUI10 to MIUI11.
https://www.chinahandys.net/xiaomi-eu-rom-update/
It recomended to wipe alvik / Art Cache, Cache AND System :crying:
So I do not have no OS any more. However, TRWP is still working.
I have a Backup but it did not work :crying:
Is there a better option than the Mi Flash tool?
Please help me!
Since you already have TWRP, download the latest Xiaomi.eu custom ROM available for the Mi 9, which is 9.11.7 to your computer.
Also download the latest TWRP by Mauronofrio from XDA which is 3.3.1-42.
Then use adb to transfer both the ROM and TWRP to your Mi 9.
In TWRP, install TWRP first and manually reboot to twrp using the vol up + power button.
In TWRP, install the ROM, do a factory reset, then finally reboot.

Thank you very much for your reply.
When I tried to make my TWRP backup work I had several problems.
First was "vendor read only". So I went in TWRP to "mount" and unticked the "mount vendor partition read-only" (sounds easy, took me some time to find out)
Then I was able to do the restore without error message. However just boot loop and only the possibility to access TWRP.
After some while I realized that this restored the wiped system partition.
So I flashed the aktual MIUI 11 9.11.7 again and rebooted.
And it worked perfectly! :victory:
I did no Factory reset all the time, it seems that everything is perfect!
No lags, no problems with the camera, no issues with auto rotation.

Xiaomi MI A2 Bricked, Bootloop. Can't get recognized in fastboot and EDL mode

Hello guys, so, today i was trying to install miui 9 in my mi a2, then later going to update to miui 10. I was trying to install by flash mode (XiaoMiFlash) Everything was going fine, until my windows accidently turned off for updates (RIP). When my pc turned on, i was desperately opening miflash as fast that i could, but then when i try to install again it was saying "cannot recieve hello packet". I tried to restart it thinking that would fix it, but its just stuck in a MI logo with mi.com screen(Bootloop). I was trying to unplug usb cable and then putting again trying to fix it, clicking refresh to see if it appears, but it doesn't. Same with fastboot mode, doesn't get recognized. I really need help to fix it and sorry if i wrote something wrong, english is not my native language.
Same problem happened with me today. Any Solution?
Are you able to boot into fastboot?
Something similar happened to me once with the A2.
I somehow too managed to interrupt some update process and got stuck in the same scenario.
I could resolve it by getting one of these now superseded fastboot stock files with some installer scripts in them.
The scripts also wouldn't work, but I could install the firmware files one by one manually, following the script's content.
First off though, you could try to get into fastboot mode (as mentioned before), boot the official twrp img and flash the latest firmware zip file from here
Then you could go ahead and flash miui for the A2 like any other custom ROM (or did you just post in the wrong section and actually got an 6X? - seeing that you used miflash, it really seems like it..
Just in case here is the right thread for downloading miui for the A2: A2 miui port)

Hey, sorry for not awnsering for a long time. Yes, i can enter in fastboot, but the problem is that my MI A2 doesn't get recognized. (nothing happens if i try to flash it in fastboot mode).
i same that trouble, i can try to bootloader but when i connect usb to my pc it not recognized, i don't run anycommand from my PC,
I think if i change to second slot i will boot my phone, and i want to change slot without command "fastboot set active-slot "

Stuck on bootloop

Hi everyone!
Since yesterday i am having problems with my phone, first it briked after a normal update, thanks god i unlocked the fastboot before, i installed a custom OS but didn't liked it, so i wiped both partition (and i think i ****ed up there)
So now i can still enter fastboot mode, but everytime i try to send fastboot boot judypn_TWRP_bootable-metadata.img (that yesterday worked) not it's not working anymore, it just boots normally and remain stuck in bootloop
On my microsd i put the img of twrp with metadata HavocOS and twrp zip too, yesterday i could install and enter in recovery mode them without any problem, today the boot img is sent but the phone "ignores" it.
PS. I can enter fastboot mode without problem, download mode isn't working
Thanks to anyone who can help!

So first, the forum you posted this in is called 'Roms, Kernels, recoveries and other development'... so which 'development' is this? a Rom? a Kernel? a Recovery?
None of the above right? So what you have is a 'question', and it should be in 'Questions and Answers'. Sorry if that offends, but if someone wants to find something in these forums, then posts need to be in the appropriate places...
First thing I'd do would be to get the phone's download mode (lgup) working again and flash a stock kdz. That way you can basically 'start over' (and hopefully have better results with your endeavors).
try this initially: Follow this link and read the 'notes' file. Hopefully that will give you lgup, if it doesn't then it's a more involved process to use edl and flash, basically, a whole image.
cheers

Question Redmi Note 11 Stuck/boot loop in Recovery mode

I need help, I did some research but I couldn't find a solution to my problem.
I know that others have a problem with rebooting to recovery when unlocking, but my problem is different. My phone is just stuck in a loop into recovery mode and won't boot normally even in safemode.
I haven't tried wiping the data yet because I want to save my files. Do you have a solution for this?
I turned on USB debugging before this bootloop happened.

I didn't do anything, I just charged my phone while it was turned off. Then I turned on the phone and the same thing happened as with others where when I unlocked it from the lock screen, the phone restarted and that's what happened.
Edit:
I saw this in another thread, we have the same problem.

Hello to everyone,
So basically i read all the 10 pages of this thread and I have not found someone that have the same problem as me. I have the “bootloop” but the thing is that my phone is not even turning on. It is just booting and going back to the recovery menu. So I choose the reboot option but still coming back to the menu. I have already turned on the debug usb option because I used to be using it before my phone dies. I have a Xiaomi MI10 Lite 5G. I also tried the MiAssisstant but no succes because device not detected.
If someone have a solution without wiping all my precious data pls ?

If you have your phone to automatically install updates, it might have done exactly that, and it borked. i.e. incomplete installation. There is no recovery partition on the spes so the boot image is potentially whacked. Try reflashing boot and dtmo and vbmeta images in Fastboot from your current ROM. That should get you back to where you were.

Sorry, I'm not really knowledgeable about this. Can you guide me or give me a link on how to do it? I don't have any experience in flashing through fastboot but earlier, I tried using ADB to check if my device is being recognized and I think it was recognized.
And also, I don't know which firmware to download or what is the current version of my phone because I only know the basic details of my device like this is Redmi Note 11 6/128 4G, I think this is the global version, and by the way, I'm from the Philippines.

Enter fastboot, check your phone is unlocked.
fastboot getvar unlocked (response will be unlocked: yes)
If you are global, then get the fastboot version from here: https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/spes/stable/V13.0.12.0.SGCMIXM/
This one is mine. Be careful you get the non-4g-in-the-name ROM for your 4g phone if yours is like mine:
Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 - Full phone specifications
www.gsmarena.com
Beware of the other one that has a Mediatek processor and has 4G in the name and is NOT my phone type: https://www.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_redmi_note_11_4g-11241.php
If this one fails to get you booted at the end, drop back a version and try that one. Check your phone box to see what region version phone you bought.
Unpack it to a folder and get the images for boot, dtbo and vbmeta. Put these files into your adb/platorm-tools directory in Windows. (you will need the boot and vbmeta images later if you choose to install Magisk) Since you ran adb already, then you must already have adb installed.
Open command prompt as root, change to that platform-tools directory.
fastboot devices (to ensure Windows sees you)
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
Reboot system.
If this gets you booted, run Device Info HW app to see what version is actually installed, and look under About Phone as well.
EDIT: I corrected the 3 command lines above.

If this one fails to get you booted at the end, drop back a version and try that one. Check your phone box to see what region version phone you bought.
Unpack it to a folder and get the images for boot, dtbo and vbmeta. Put these files into your adb/platorm-tools directory in Windows. (you will need the boot and vbmeta images later if you choose to install Magisk) Since you ran adb already, then you must already have adb installed.
Open command prompt as root, change to that platform-tools directory.
fastboot devices (to ensure Windows sees you)
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
Reboot system.
If this gets you booted, run Device Info HW app to see what version is actually installed, and look under About Phone as well.
EDIT: I corrected the 3 command lines above.

Sorry for the delayed reply.
It seems that my bootloader is still locked, so I cannot flash it using fastboot. Is that correct?
Is there a way to flash my device without losing my files? I really need to get my files

Then ignore my steps, since they won't work on a locked bootloader. I will defer to others who have clues regarding a locked bootloader and a down system.
You COULD try to unlock it, but that would definitely wipe all your data:
"Unlocking the bootloader will wipe all data"
Get the unlock tool and instructions here, if you so choose anyway:
Apply for permissions to unlock Mi devices
en.miui.com
NOTE: that gives you unlock version 6.5.224.28 but it might/should prompt you after install to install the updated version since mine is 6.5.406.31 from April of 2022. When you run it, it makes you wait a week.
NOTE 2: It does state this warning, however:
"First, confirm that your device can be unlocked
Your device functions normally and not in a bricked, soft-bricked, bootloop state."

I need help, I did some research but I couldn't find a solution to my problem.
I know that others have a problem with rebooting to recovery when unlocking, but my problem is different. My phone is just stuck in a loop into recovery mode and won't boot normally even in safemode.
I haven't tried wiping the data yet because I want to save my files. Do you have a solution for this?
I turned on USB debugging before this bootloop happened.
