Hi guys
Sorry for my bad English
My device was running Android 10
miui 11
After I accidentally used an application to raise the screen frequency to 84Hz
The devics did a reboot and then stopped on the fastboot logo
I tried to enter recovery mode but was back to fastboot mode
I tried to flash twrp via adb and fastboot but the method did not work and the device returned to fastboot mode
Finally I downloaded the ROM file global Version Android 9
miui 11 and when i flashed the system via "xiaomi flash tool " the operation was successful until it reached the end of the process it showed me an error and the flash failed
I restarted the process and noticed that the flashing process gives me the error when the download arrives at "flashing boot"
I searched a lot for the version of Android 10 miui 11 but I did not find
What is the problem!
Can anyone explain what the problem is?
Thank you very much
Edit : solved With the help of my friend and brother @tsongming thanks bro
You likely damaged the phone, myself and others have posted numerous warning about flashing mods to increase the refresh rate.
I would recommend trying the Flashall.bat method.

See this thread : https://c.mi.com/thread-2121755-1-0.html
Also, I read about some people getting past these recent issues by using a USB hub extender. These decrease the amount of power to the port which may be causing a conflict. Try other ports and only use a usb 2 port. Further, I would recommend temporarily disabling firewall and antivirus if all else fails. Worst case use another computer.
If this helps come back and let us know what finally resolved it.

You still have encryption on your device, use the tool all in one and install TWRP ( You may need to use a different/maybe older computer, I think possibly windows 10 is part of the issue. ( Because I have had this exact issue that you are having)
Install the tool, and update ADB but not the tool itself, there will be a popup, asking to update. ignore it or the update will be flagged a sbeinga virus ( Actually a Windows issue) However, yes the program is unsigned.
Use all in One tool to remove encryption from device and flash TWRP
Boot to recovery, immediately flash root, Flash Su if you must.
Reboot to recovery, then flash a recovery rom. the boot to system , may take up to 10 minutes.
use ports from the back of the PC and you may need to use a usb hub.

While its possible that you have a hardware issue. Unless the phone has been exposed to moisture, or exposed to a great deal of force I doubt that you have a hardware problem. Again, I too have had a similar issue, it's just took a while to finally get it working, in my case my computer was part of the problem, since you have fastboot the number one goal at the moment should be with getting TWRP recovery installed, and then root.
Did you happen to make any TWRP backups?
Hopefully so, specifically if you have a TWRP backup that includes the persist image files, you need to try flashing those to the persist partition. If you can successfully restore the persist image then try the flashall.bat method again.
Another option is to use QPST, but try the above first.
Edit
Finally, After re-reading you initial post. I had forgotten that you attempted to improve the refresh rate of the display. If all you can get is fastboot after following all of the steps that I have mentioned than I am certain that you have a burned chip. Ignore the people who claim that you can't fry the chip they have no idea what they are talking about. The chip can absolutely be fried. It's still worth trying a few more times, you could have just simply corrupted partition images. When you flash the stock rom, or even when using the flashall.bat method not every partition is over written.
@ahmadbasher
When you flashed the file to increase the refresh rate you likely overwrote a partition called DTBO, See if you can flash a Mi8 DTBO image to the DTBO partition. If you have the full recovery backup, you can extract the file from there. i need to research exactly how that file works and I will try to help you will getting the image if you don't have it in a backup.

No problem, after reading some various post on GitHub, CNX, and source android.com, I found out that the Mi8 DTBO is in the boot. Image.
So you should be able to flash a boot image, root, and then recovery and hopefully boot to TWRP.
If that doesn't work then send me a pm and I will share my personal dtbo with you privately. But again you shouldn't need mine since dtbo is nothing more than the device tree and the boot image should suffice, because it has the exact same file.
ADB command : fastboot flash boot c:\boot.img

No that is just encryption, if the issue was related to encryption the flashall.bat method would have resolved it.
If you had a persist issue, you would see specific messages about not being able to mount the persist partition.

Thank you I will now try to do this
Yesterday I flashed the pixle rom on the device and I took off the device without problems but every period of time the device was doing a reboot, I do not know if it is the problem of the ROM or there is something wrong with the device
I tell you so that you know only that
Now I will flash the latest version of miui 11 android 9 global version, and flash the boot.img and then Root and finally Recovery True ?

Hey sorry for the delay in getting back to you, I sent you the link for the file via PM.
Also, I would strongly suggest using the stock miui initially. Just until you know it's resolved. Also while Miui is installed make a full TWRP backup and save it to your desktop. This way you always have a full backup to resolve any serious issues.
Then once you know everything is working as it should then go back to what you prefer..
For the record this issue was solved. Anyone reading this, make sure that you have a full working TWRP backup of your working device, it will save you a lot of headaches. The solution for the refresh rate is issue is restoring stock DTBO, and then flashing Miui Stock.
so i've tried a few roms, and couldn't get gpay working. im going to try a few things mentioned in other threads, but before i start that. i want to properly/fully reset my phone to the stock, to hopefully make sure i don't mess anything up in the future.
my first issue was installing twrp, i tried to `fastboot flash` the recovery, but nothing worked until i followed these steps: https://www.getdroidtips.com/download-and-install-twrp-recovery-for-redmi-k20-pro-latest/
im worried about what might be in the misc.bin in that zip. cuz i couldn't reboot into twrp recovery until i flashed that. does anyone know what that is? i think i just want to flash/reset? everything on my phone back to miui, make sure i update to the latest firmware etc. but, tbh, i find navigating xda difficult and can't seem to find the official firmware anywhere, or steps on how to reset the phone...
thanks for any help
Um, i think ur in the wrong category

The misc.bin file is basically just a script that tells the Device to directly boot into TWRP, because Xiaomi Devices / MIUI are configured to overwrite TWRP after a reboot. If you still feel uncomfortable having to flash the misc file, try "fastboot *BOOT* TWRP.img" instead of "fastboot *FLASH* TWRP.img".
If you wish to keep MIUI installed instead of an Custom ROM make sure to flash Magisk, as it patches the DM-Verity stuff that causes the Device to either get stuck in a Bootloop or replace TWRP with the Stock Recovery.
If you're planning to run an Custom ROM like LineageOS, AOSiP etc. you don't have to flash Magisk as long as your Device isn't encrypted. Rebooting from TWRP to System without flashing Magisk on an encrypted Device will encrypt your Data Partition and you'll have to format Data to be able to access the Internal Storage again. (Flashing Magisk in that case will prevent your Device from encrypting all your Data again after an ROM Flash.)

k thanks for the info. what's the difference b/w the boot v flash for twrp?
is the misc.bin from that link i posted safe then? where did it come from? is there a thread here where files like that are posted/talked about?
i definitely plan to stick with either lineage or Pixel experience. i just want to get google pay going. so i think my next attempt will be to relflash magisk and look into that sql fix everyone mentions

If you're planning to go back to stock MIUI and locked bootloader, I highly recommend using Mi Flash and flashing the original fastboot MIUI ROM which can be found here https://www.xda-developers.com/download-miui-11-xiaomi-redmi-note-7-pro-poco-f1/amp/. All you gotta to do is extract the ROM file which is .tgz to any folder, and in Mi Flash select that folder click on "clean all and lock" in the bottom right corner, and click flash. This should theoretically make your device "out of the box".
Keep in mind that this method requires a PC with all ADB and fastboot drivers, they can be downloaded from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979 .

BOOT will just let the Device temporarily boot into the Recovery (without making changes to the Recovery Partition) FLASH will write the Recovery Image to the Recovery Partition so you can boot to it whenever you want / need to.
I don't know if there's any kind of threads where certain files are talked about sorry, but I could be wrong though.
I don't know much about G Pay, I was gonna try it too but my Bank doesn't support it. I've seen quite a few people reporting success in getting it to work / making payments with it in local stores with the mentioned SQL Fix so if you're lucky it'll work for you too

I just received my direct from Google Pixel 4 XL running the June 2020 update and proceeded to root it using the instructions found here https://www.xda-developers.com/google-pixel-4-root-magisk/ after flashing the patched boot.img and rebooting the phone doesn't boot past the G logo; the status bar just loops indefinitely. Is there something I'm missing? Any help would be much appreciated.
I have no modules loaded, no custom kernel or ROM.
Go to recovery and reset the phone,
And reboot the phone in each steps
The guide looks mostly like what I do every month, though I haven't done June yet.
I don't think this will solve your issue, but usually I flash the patched boot image to both slots as Magisk in-place updates seem to fail if I don't...
Code:
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img --slot=all
I assume you didn't have any obvious issues with the guide steps aside from not booting after Step 5?
Make sure your platform tools are the newest you can get. Also make sure that you didn't get the Telstra variant of the June update.
If all else fails, try to revert by dirty flashing the (correct) June 2020 stock ROM. You'll only lose root if you do it correctly. (you don't have working root anyways)
Take the giant ZIP file you downloaded to get the boot image, merge it with platform tools and edit the flash-all.bat file... near the bottom, remove the "-w " from the command so it reads
Code:
fastboot update image-coral-qq3a.200605.001.zip
Save the changes and run the .bat file after booting the phone to fastboot and making sure its visible to platform tools.

Your first suggestion results in the phone booting, but ending up on a black screen with only the power menu
dirty flashing results in a successful unrooted boot, but rooting seems to not be possible for some users including myself. No clue why
Try flashing the patched boot to both boots but don't use the all slots command, do them one at a time, A, then B. See if that gets it.
So I am a fool.
I didn't run these commands using the latest "platform-tools"
but I will remember this instructions if I have issues in the future!
I am on latest platform tools and have tried all options presented and still get black screen with adb access and power menu. Other thoughts?
I just downloaded the full image and was getting ready to patch the boot image and flash it on my 2 day old Pixel 4xl. Maybe I will wait unless others have had success with this. I am on the June update. I made sure I didn't download the Telstra version.
Is there any reason to not just use the "Download Zip" option in Magisk? That always worked fine for me on my last phone.
Thanks, Chris

I took the plunge and it booted just fine. I am on a G020J if that help. Hardware MP1.0.
I did not realize that TWRP was not available for the Pixel 4xl yet. What is everyone using for a custom recovery?

I feel like the options inside Magisk are for phones that are already rooted to update Magisk. I guess what your edit is saying is that you used to use TWRP with the ZIP?
Anyways, there are no custom recoveries for the same reason there is not TWRP. The partition scheme for Pixel phones that come with Android 10 pre-installed is too different for TWRP to live on it. I don't know enough about this subject, but I thought I read there was no separate recovery partition that could be made custom.
Everyone has been doing it all along, when people have issues it's usually the wrong boot image, wrong complete image, flashed boot image to wrong slot, used the factory cable (yes, it's a thing, don't use it or flashing), don't have the correct and/or latest tools. There was an issue with windows 8.1 and flashing, I don't remember what that was but those of you flashing and still on 8.1 you'll want to do a search for that.
@Brakiss, you may want to try the whole smash if all else has failed... THIS WILL DELETE YOUR DATA!
Start by going over to Goog ---> https://developers.google.com/android/images and getting the full factory image and the latest tools; even if you already did it do it again being careful to verify you have the correct image. While you're grabbing goods get the Magisk APK so you can install it after the image is flashed. For the flashing portion please follow the directions on that page to the letter. Do not use the factory cable; use an A to C. Before you flash run these commands one at a time
fastboot erase system_a
fastboot erase system_b
fastboot erase boot_a
fastboot erase boot_b
fastboot reboot-bootloader
After flashing get the boot image directly from the factory image you downloaded and not any other source and move it over to your phone along with the Magsik APK. Install magisk manager and then use it patch the boot image. You'll take that over to your PC and flash it as usual but do it to both slots and do them separately, do not use the all slots.

Correct, there is no recovery partition anymore. That has been a thing for a while now and not specific to the Pixel. My Moto x4 that I used prior to the Pixel 4xl had the recovery in the boot image but there was still TWRP for it. Whenever rooting that phone you have to boot a custom recovery image then from in there flash the separate custom recovery image/zip installer. It would modify the recovery that is embedded into the boot image.
I really hope that devs smarter than myself will figure it out and make a way to get TWRP on there.
On Android 11 Beta 2.5, I patch the original boot image, I then send it via fastboot, I tried flashing all partitions, manually _a and _b and stuck on Google logo ... When I put back the original boot.img, everything works properly. Miss my root but haven't seen any help on this :| Worked until I switched to 11 Beta ...
I have the problem too
Just as Chronos300 reported, I got stuck on the G logo. Some of my problem may be self-inflicted since I was not careful enough in following the directions: evidently it's important to finish the process for unlocking the bootloader before going to fastboot again to flash the Magisk boot image. I got stuck on the G logo but thought that I would have my way out by flashing the July factory image.
Most of that process worked out: things were good until the end when I saw a lot of messages about files that aren't present in image-coral-qq3a.200805.001.zip like boot.sig or recovery.img. I guess these are optional: the *.sig files may be intended to contain a checksum or hash and the recovery.img may just have gone away with the recovery partitions. Finally was an error that was fatal:
fastboot: error: Failed to boot into userspace fastboot; one or more components might be unbootable.

That's awful cheery. I see that the difference between flash-all.sh and flash-base.sh is that the former has the "fastboot -w update" that Shayded talks about. I tried running the update command as Shaded recommends, without the -w switch. This time it got farther, but this time the final message was "failed to extract 'product.img': I/O error"
Sure enough, image-coral-qq3a.200805.001.zip contains no product.img file. Is this my problem, or is the solution somewhere else? Would an older factory image have the missing file?
Sigh of relief
My phone's back in the land of the living. I had noticed the links on the factory-image page for the flash tool. Thinking that maybe these were better maintained, I thought to try out the August update for coral.
The flash tool downloaded whatever big image it grabs and then started into the installation. After a few minutes the fastbootd screen came up and the progress bar went to about 80%--and then everything hung. Hoping on hope, I decided I could leave it like this all night if I had to.
It might have taken half an hour, but it did finally come up with the screen saying everything had updated. Sure enough, it made it through the boot and came up to the setup screens.
Enabled developer mode, saw that the bootloader was indeed unlocked, and went about setting some settings. Haven't tried root yet, but it's sure great to be back in business!

Personally, I don't understand how you ended up without product.img... it's literally half of the internal ZIP file. (you're not supposed to extract this ZIP, anyways)

No, I never altered that zip file and was not trying to extract individual files from it when making that final run of fastboot update.
What I can tell you is that I was sleepy by the time I was doing that. There were two things I missed noting at the time but see this morning: product.img is indeed in the internal zip file and a message a couple of lines above the final error message (I had left the terminal window open):
extracting product.img (2102 MB) to disk...ziparchive W 08-18 00:00:43 31524 31524 Zip: unable to allocate 2204832024 bytes at offset 0: No space left on device

I would think that my failing to wait for a complete boot with an unlocked bootloader before attempting to flash magisk_patched.img did something unfortunate to the partitioning scheme. Evidently the web-based flash tool cleared it up.
Maybe I'm suggesting the obvious... but do you have 2-4GB available on every drive? It's complaining there's no available space. Typically product.img is split into 500MB parts and sent separately... so you'd need at least 2x the space available for the parts.
The flash-all is generic and looks for some files which are not used by these phones. This failure described is usually the wrong cord, you must use a USB A to USB C rather than a C to C. If not that it's going to be a tools/driver issue. There are a number of guides which can show how to find and delete old drivers and reinstall new drivers. Removing the W gets rid of the wipe but doesn't otherwise affect the flashing and will have nothing to do with it's success or failure; you are in effect dirty flashing when you remove it from the flash-all.
I made the mistake of reading that the firmware is the same for all three 10S models, and accidentally flashed the wrong magisk-patched boot.img.
Now, to fix my phone i Need to flash the original boot.img, but I can't find online the ROM for the Maltose variant.
Anyone can help?
I was able to find a dump of the file from here. And though that fixed my boot issue (note: the dump says it's for MIUI V12.5.14.0, whereas my phone has version V12.5.13), I still can't get root because when I patch that file with Magisk, and flash it via fastboot, it doesn't boot, and goes to FastBoot until I reflash the original.
So, the question now is, where can I find a patched boot.img for [Maltose]?
Since there's nearly no threads regarding Maltose, it might be best to leave this thread here for future reference of other users.

maltose is rosemary
Okay, that seems correct. I downloaded the RoseMary IMG version 12.5.13.0 and extracted the boot.img file, after flashing it on my device's boot A & B partitions, it does boot correctly.
I am still having issues rooting my phone, but I guess that's a different issue and requires it's own topic.
I successfully flashed my European oneplus 10 pro using the instructions - see link below.
Everything worked VERY WELL, except texts/sms I could'nt receive but could send.
I spend hours and hours making it perfect.
I had the perfect phone.
So if someone wants to know how to use lineageos with full GAPS, just follow the link below.
Then being so STUPID, for no need and no reason I continued following the same instructions and tried to root the phone.
And then this disaster happened that boot is looping and I cannot run: fastboot reboot fastboot.
Meaning that I cannot repair my phone.
All I can do is push the volume down and go to recovery mode. That's all.
My PC can send fastboot commands but I cannot go to the menu where it's chinese and english and from which I could run commands to flash my phone properly back to where it was.
I don't care loosing the data and loosing so many hours of effort, but I REALLY need my phone back to work.
This is the link from this forum to the instructions that really helped me with my Oneplus 10 pro (that I bought by mistake).
LINK THAT WORKS WITH ONEPLUS 10 PRO AND LINEAGE 19.

Thank you Savio, but this is my main issue, I cannot enter fastbootD.
Whether using the tool "fastboot enhance" or using the command line. I cannot reach FastboodD.
When I try to reach this using the tool, it's looping with no error log.
And when I try from CMS:
C:\Users\me\Downloads\from dumper> fastboot reboot fastboot
Rebooting into fastboot OKAY [ 0.000s]
< waiting for any device >
fastboot: error: Failed to boot into userspace fastboot; one or more components might be unbootable.
It also still sounds like your recovery.img and/r boot.img still may be corrupted.
this needs to MATCH in BOTH slots A & B
Try this:

This is where your fatal mistake was.... the red line above is incorrect !
It should have been, "adb reboot bootloader" THEN "fastboot boot magisk_patched.img"
you never want to straight FLASH any modified boot image when working with an a/b partition device.. or pretty much ANY device running the dynamic partition scheme. This is because of the way the partitions are laid out. Something about flashing a modified boot.img directly breaks things... BUT you had a DOUBLE FLAW in yours because you not only flashed a modified boot img directly, you ALSO flashed "magisk_patched.img" to android, which does not have a file named "magisk_patched.img" in its manifest.... android has "boot.img" in its manifest. Understand?? I have seen this flaw ALL OVER the place and no one seems to notice that, so im hoping several ppl finally realize the MAJOR error that they are making.
The android manifest has the EXACT names of every file to be loaded into the system, and any deviations to that list must be incorporated into the BUILD structure when making the os. In other words, say you wanted to build a custom flavor of android from scratch, and have the recovery be installed as a homemade "TWRP" build. Now im talking about FULL BUILD not a port, or remake of an already built OS... I am meaning "1st install... everything from the ground, up.... similar to what lineage does" ... THAT is where the origin android manifest is built... and all updates/custom mods/roms that are made from the original that you created, MUST FOLLOW the exact same file structure, and naming scheme that is in your original manifest. recovery.img needs to be named recovery.img .... system.img needs to be named system.img .... in the case of most of these boot loop issues (BUT NOT ALL) alot of ppl either find some guide written by a person who has never rooted a device in their life, but felt inclined to serve up some untested set of steps that had a fatal flaw they overlooked. THAT is what happened here.
Whoever wrote those steps obviously never tried them before writing them, or they would have had the same result as you. You CANNOT have a completely different named boot image FLASHED to the boot partition! Those steps are instructing you to FLASH, "magisk_patched.img" to the boot partition, where android is expecting "boot.img" ... if those steps were at all to be taken to be the real intention of the author then he would have needed to add a line prior instructing the reader to "rename the file from "magisk_patched.img" and make it "boot.img" ... then in the next step it would have been "fastboot flash boot boot.img" ... but i still DO NOT recommend that, as like i said it can cause errors. If at all possible you always want to BOOT the patched boot.img file 1st, because if there is any problems with it or android rejects it, all you have to do is restart the phone, and it will boot back up to the UNMODIFIED boot.img ! ... but if you FLASH it, then it has no old boot.img to revert to... thus the boot loop..... (bad boot.img ..... reset ..... bad boot.img ..... reset ... bad boot.img ..... reset...) <-Bootloop.
When you BOOT the patched image, though and it loads into the OS with no problems, then you have confirmation that the file was patched properly and is compatible with your OS. NOW you can simply open the Magisk app, and it will see your phone as already rooted, so you can then tap the install button, and then MAGISK will install itself correctly to the right partition, AND make a backup of the file that is from your stock os.
hope that sheds some light and also more ppl take time to read this! Ill make a regular post about it shortly for more visibility.

Thank you, BB, for the clear explanations about respecting the structure of the partitions and not messing directly with the boot partition using a modified img.
Do I need to reach the conclusion that my phone is broken forever and there is nothing I can do to fix it?
I thought that as long as I reach the recovery mode, I can still fix it.
If you have a brilliant solution just as brilliant as your teaching, could you please help me restoring my phone to a functional state?
And BTW, it was a TRIPLE FLAW, because I had a wonderful lineageos 19 working like a charm with GAPS and I just wanted to root it for no reason.
Many thanks for your efforts.
Damn. Nice to know Lineage works well on this phone with extensive tweaking. GSI's can be pretty unstable from what I've seen, missing cell reception and the like.
Yeah, flashing that image killed the phone. I've seen some people recover by flipping their boot slot to the other one and forcing the phone to boot the stock boot there. But if you've flashed to both slots, you're most likely SOL and need a MSM flash. In which case, you could try flashing the complete stock boot image for your OOS version you were on before moving to GSI to both slots as sort of a last resort, but even then I've only seen minimal success.

I understand that MSM is no longer available.
Any other direction how I can just fix the booting process?
And this is another error I received which gets closer to the source of the problem:

why don't we get boot_debug and vendor_boot_debug images to debug and then boot into fastbootd and flash it again, why waste time researching these unrelated things.

THIS WAS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE !
After I thought everything was back, I noticed that the battery stopped charging.
I flashed again Lineageos and it worked but yet the battery didn't charge.
I re run the python script but this time using another OFP and it showed successful.
And yet it successfully killed my phone. Completely dead for the second time.
Hundreds of $ and of hours for a F^&& phone.
Huge lesson to learn here about choices.

Damn. I think what happened is you lost your persist.img when initially flashing the first ofp, that thing controls low level stuff like fingerprint unlock and charger cable auth I've seen on these forums. I'm not sure there's a way to get it back either outside of a MSM Flash, certainly haven't seen one here.
