hi i have had my redmi 4x for like 2,5 years by now
and i originally bricked it like two weeks after i got it so obviously i tried to fix it
i watched some youtube tutorials but nothing seemed to work for me because i didnt understand that you had to unlock the bootloader
to do that and that that wasnt possible if it was bricked so i tried for a loooong loooong time without success
after like 2 month i finally gave up and well today i found it in my closet and i thought it would be fun to repair it
so i tried. so far without success
the problem iis that i oviously cant unlock the bootloader (because the phone isnt even signed into my miui account)
so then i tried to use the test point contacts i shorted them out with my screwdriver and opened the flash tool
but when i wanted to flash it it said: "couldnt find flash script"
and thats where im standing right now
sorry for my bad english
There is tutorial how to flash ROM in such cases i could have linked that thread but it seems to be miui forum got killed, not sure of its availability it is giving error 404 to me.
Check this thread it might help but first read carefully everything and then proceed -> https://www.xda-developers.com/xiaomitool-windows-mod-xiaomi-smartphone/

Hello;
I bought an unlocked Samsung Captivate from Ebay,
when i got the phone it was unlocked and used it for a while.
(got it 9 days ago).
I tried to update the phone once but I forgot to change the
"update.zip" file with the newer that I got from here
then the phone became locked again. I tought it was a problem with the rom so I burnt another room on it(cogniton 2.2 with hebrew on it). The phone is working but its unlocked. I tried unlocking it with the software named "terminal Emulator" and got 8 digits codes (numbers only) I wrote it down. then inserted my simcard and tried the code twice (it said that the unlocking was unseccusfull. I stopped trying to insert the code
(I heard it can get bricked but i didnt know how many times do i need to try untill its getting bricked). I got no idea how to open it up. please help me,
Thank you.
for any other questions that might help you... post it and i will answer. (I live in Israel and I cant get to At&t's lab to fix it)

if you search in the Q&A section of the forum, there is a thread devoted to unlocking captivates. This is the Dev section, devoted to development of new roms/kernels/etc. I was literally just looking at the thread moments ago, I just don't have the URL handy. go to Q&A and search unlock and you should have all your problems solved.
I don't know the answer, but you might be more successful if you poet questions in the Q&A forum. Good luck.

try that
Hi,
I passed the last 2 days reading and reading tutorials on internet and trying to find a way to install the TWRP so I can install a Custom ROM, and for what seems I need have the bootloader unlocked, which Im trying but the option dont appear under Dev options and it doesnt let me use the oldest firmware since the one installed is newer...
So Im trying to see if I get the flash tool for it, but I only find those scam websites where I need install or refill some form with my data.
Does anyone have the tools needed to flash it ? Thanks in advance
PS: I searched in the forum and the posts I found wasnt usefull to me, and everytime I try to flash the TWRP, it appears in my cmd windows: "writing recovery" but stay like this all time, after 1h I needed restart the phone
Ive had this problem for ages and tried everything i can think of. hopefully by now someone has experienced the same problem and solved it.
*My phone is stuck on honor boot logo
*i can access e-recovery
*i can access stock recovery
*i can access fastboot and device is recognised on my laptop
* i can wipe cache and factory reset successully and have done many times
*i can and have used the dload (3 button method) to flash stock rom successfully
Now the problem is that although i have flashed the earliest stock rom NEM-L51C432B102 it fails saying incorrect package!!!i think this is because my phone came with B103 or B104 and you can only flash from what your phone originally had and up.
I have flashed NEM-L51C432b120 and also NEM-L51C432b130 and although it says successful it reboots and remains stuck on honor boot logo!
I have entered fastboot and i can issue commands but they all fail saying REMOTE COMMAND NOT ALLOWED.
I can't use ADB because it doesn't recognise my device. Obviously ADB and FASTBOOT wont work because i can't access developper options and select enable USB debugging or OEM Unlock because the phone is stuck on honor boot logo.
Also my bootloader must be locked. I have the unlock code but i can't issue the command FASTBOOT OEM UNLOCK XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX because as mentioned before it says FAILED REMOTE COMMAND NOT ALLOWED.
I have even tried flashing rollback packages(there isnt one for NEM-L51)for other models, followed by flashing stock rom for my model device.
When i bought the phone it came with either the B103 or B104 package but after months of searching i can't find on the internet.
Is my phone a lost cause??? is it hard bricked? So i am praying that there is a guru out there who can solve this very strange problem.
Many thanks in advance.

Oh well. Seriously this is the same issue my frn asked me to help. This is soo serious that we can only unbrick through update.app or else service center. Since u said dload method works but stucks device on bootlogo. U need to visit service center if under Warranty

Flash these files and it should, most probably, be fine.
use dload method as given here- https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73954487&postcount=240
as there are many different opinions on this method of using only update.app file but thats not true and it should be all the files.
Main file - http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1165/g104/v71812/f1/full/update.zip
Data file- http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...1812/f1/full/hw/eu/update_data_full_hw_eu.zip
Flash both the files in order. 1st file will restore your system but then you need to have 2nd file so that apps are installed and all working fine.
After 1st file, it may reboot on its own and stuck on honor logo, reboot to recovery and then do factory reset, it will be fine.
Then let it boot to set up. Dont set your phone. Shutdown and flash the 2nd file.
boot and set up.
Good luck. Please provide feedback once done. In case of further issue, let me know and will dig more into this.
Oh this is hard.

you cant follow simple instructions? you shouldnt be on this forum if youre not ready to lose data or brick your device.
Thanks for your input so far people. Much appreciated. @shashank1320 I am downloading the files you suggested and will flash them exactly according to your instructions. I will get back to you in a couple of days with the result. Fingers crossed.

Unfortunately my warranty has expired. The annoying thing is that if i had sent my device off six months ago when this first happened it would still be under warranty but in the UK there is only 1 service center, yes 1, and its hundreds of miles away! So i figured i could solve it myself. You live and learn.
Hey there everyone. I still havent managed to solve the issue with my device and its not through lack of trying. I have re downloaded all of the stock firmwares that you can possibly find on the internet. I also found one ive necer seen before. Its a full service repair b355. Fingers crossed, a miracle might happen and it will just boot up like when i first bought it. to begin with tho, i'm going to start with b102 and work through them b120, b130 ,b130rollback ,b350(beta), b350, b355 and then the b355 full service repair! I also got a couple of rollback packages(around 80mb) if all else fails.
I know, i'm nuts!! Finally before i admit defeat i'm going to part with £15 to buy credits for the dc-unlocker and dcPhoenx programs. From what ive read it has a good chance of solving it. I've taken soooo long before considering this option because i think its wrong that someone(s) is making loads of money from this. Why havent huawei/honor included a similar program in hi-suite. Anyway ive gone off on a tangent.
One last question though. Strangely enough i only just thought of it recently....
Is it a necessity to have your sim card in the tray as well as the sd-card????? All this time i havent had a sim in the phone as its in a crappy old one so i can still communicate with the world!!!!
Thank you to everyone for taking your time to read this. I hope a solution is possible.

No need of sim card in tray while using dload. Just sd card is fine. Let me go through it again and try to help before you go for 15 dollars for dc phoenix

Did you flash those files i given? If not can try. Else i will have to look for other alternative
yeah i downloaded those files you had mentioned in your post and followed the instructions to the letter.
I've got a suggestion if you have tried all these above.
Can you try the following on ADB and then try to unlock OEM again.
fastboot oem relock YourUnlockCode
I've done the same and it helped, even when bootloader displayed UNLOCKED. Please try it. :good::good:

@shashank1320 Hi, i have similar problem with my NEM-L21 device... I tried to flash the Elite ROM v5.1 but i didnt succeed so i decided to restore my old rom from backup with TWRP. When i restored it it just didnt load. It was stuck on honor logo for a long time. I tried the dload method many times but nothing worked so far. I even tried unbrick it with HUAWEI Multi-tool but it also didnt worked.
Now i cant acces anything, just fastboot. I cant even turn off the device. Please can you help me somehow?

Try unlocking the bootloader again even if it is unlocked. It will factory reset the device and it should boot fine. Have stuck on this many a time and this was the method i followed.
Bought a new global 6gb/128 Mi9, it arrived yesterday.
Tried to unlock the bootloader and after doing everything the unlock tool wanted, I was presented with the 360 hour wait.
I've looked over the forums and couldn't really find much information about this, except the following:
Do not sign out of the Xiaomi account on the phone.
Do not reset/wipe/update the Mi9 or it resets the counter
I was thinking of leaving it in the closet for 15 days until I can unlock it, since unlocking wipes the phone.
However, I saw in another thread that there appears to be another check about "using the phone for the number of required hours."
What do I have to do to pass this check?
Yes you need to use or turn on your phone for specified hours (i dont know exactly). Waiting 360 hours is not enough if you just binded mi unlock then leave your phone off. Fortunately you can bypass the usage requirement by using older mi flash unlock. I'm using ver 3.xx and still cant unlock after 360h. I said i need to use my phone more and wait another ****in days. Then I use mi flash unlock ver 2.xx and unlocked successfully.
I guess miui tried to make this unlock process become more difficult so they can still making money by ads
Thanks for the information.
I found version 2.3.803.10 here, is that the version you used to avoid the "time used" limitation?
xiaomifirmware dot com/downloads/download-mi-unlock-2-3-803-10
Hello all
I will receive mine those days, from Netherlands (And I leave in France)
SO I assume I will have the EE version, not the global ? How can I make sure of it and download the right xiaomi.eu ROM ?
The goal for me is unlocking the bootloader, wait the 360 hours, unlock and wipe all, flash twrp, and finally flash the latest xiaomi.eu ROM, cause it seems awesome compared to the stock one.

Take a look at the timestamp for both posts. Cheers.
Don't need to, all the best.
Got my phone 6 days ago and need to wait a bit less than 24 hours now. Guess I got lucky.
In my case it said 360 hours, but I checked maybe 6 or 7 days later and it said 1 hour remaining. I was able to unlock the hour after. So maybe just keep an eye on it. I used the phone as my daily driver though.
This is the link to the developers unbricking tool

Look buddy I'm sorry this happened to you. Part of the reason I gave this cell away when I unbricked it was that the very first te it bricked it was bricked 120 days. Is all I can suggest is that you try not to panic an possibly delete system. It's similar to format data. Then try an make a clean start with the unbricking tool. My ex still uses it every day with zero probs an I think it may be an EU rom. These cells are natouriously difficult to customise. I hope you unbrick it soon. An I am sorry there are so many unsympathetic people on XDA who would rather say how ignorant or dumb you are than try an help. I refuse to be like that now. I am just a humble forklift driver. We cannot all be computer experts or write code or roms for cellphones.
Take your time an try an erase the cell in case something you are trying to hold onto is preventing unbricking?
I lost everything on my cell an only had it 2 days when it happened to me. You may lose your data. But erasing might help the unbrick tool work
Good luck. An breathe ok
