Hey guys. i got my phone a week ago, was happily using it until i noticed the Vendor Rom 8.0.8.0 M0AHCNDI2 days ago. Decided to flash the Official Stable ROM with chinese MI PC Suite. Checked forums and finally after downloading the Official Stable Chinese ROM managed to flash my phone with it. Except for some problems i encountered while using Google apps it was running fine. After few hours i decided to try the Ofiicial Chinese Dev Rom aswell. But after flashing via Chinese MI PC Suite my phone got stuck on bootloop. Now i can't flash the stable rom back and my phone is stuck. Help Please, Thanks in advance

Instead of using PC Suite, boot your phone into fastboot mode and flash the ROM using MiFlash. Don't use Mi PC Suite. Follow instructions on one of the guides in the forum and you should be fine.

Chances are it's already unlocked, with vendor rom (let's hope so). Check through fastboot with command prompt
fastboot oem device-info
Don't use PC suite until they fix it's problems.

My phone doesn't even charge now and doesn't show the mi logo any longer. The only thing happens when i connect the charger is that the led blinks red continuously. Is it hardbricked? What can i do now? Sorry to trouble you
Edited. Now I get the mi logo back after an hour of changing.

As you're not sure whether your phone is charging, I would suggest keeping it connected to the charger for a few hours. This way, it may eventually get charged atleast to a safe level at some point.
After this, if you dont already have ADB and Fastboot installed, install it from the guide in the forums. Make sure to uninstall PC Suite first.
Once ADB is installed, open up the shell, boot device into fastboot mode and connect to PC. In the command shell,
Type fastboot oem device-info
It should show you the device bootloader lock status. Though most phones which come with Vendor ROMs have unlocked bootloaders, this is not always the case as my phone came with a vendor ROM while bootloader was locked. I suspect this is because vendors may have a signed Custom ROM file which can be flashed using the stock recovery, meaning bootloader unlocking is not a necessity for them to load the custom firmware.
Once you check whether bootloader is unlocked, if it isnt, unlock the bootloader using the guide.
Then install MiFlash and flash the fastboot ROM
if it is locked (afaik, mi suite can lock bootloaders, but there is no compatible mi pc suite for the mix available, so it shouldn't) then you need a deep flash cable to force flash anything in miflash tool. buy one for a few dollar on aliexpress.
xiaomi deep flash cable. with the button.
xiaomi deep flash cable. with button and usb-C adapter

I was wondering how the OP flashed using Mi PC Suite considering the Mix isnt supported. Maybe he is referring to Mi Flash as PC Suite.
If thats the case he may have messed something during the flashing process. Isn't there a way to enter EDL mode without the deep flash cable? I think it was done via a fastboot command.

First of all THANK YOU ALL for helping out. I just downloaded the Chinese MI Pc Suite. It said my phone has an update (it was in chinese so i had to look it up via google translate) then i clicked download and update. it downloaded the 8.0.12.0 Chinese Stable rom and flashed my phone with it. It was working fine but i tried to flash the Dev Rom the same way and it's stuck now. I didn't even know the Mi Flash tool until i opened this thread. Now i have the Mi Flash tool but my phone doesn't show up on it. I don't know how to use ADB and Fast Flash tools. Tried the forum but there are so many guides and i'm not sure which one would suit my problem. Now all i want is getting my phone working again and switching to EU ROM and not touching anything risky ever again.

You can follow this guide compiled by @underlines : Guide: (17-01-09) Flash Global/China ROM, Root, gapps, Xposed, TWRP
This guide has step by step instructions on how to install ADB and fastboot, unlock bootloader and Flash a ROM of your choice. Providing you follow the guide carefully, you wouldn't face any issues.
I have also posted a guide which is only intended to be an add-on to the guide posted by underlines. This means you should already have the recommended files downloaded and bootloader unlocked. using the guide above.
My guide uses a different version of MiFlash as certain Vendor ROMs are not compatible with the newer version. If you are unable to flash using the original guide above, you can also try following my guide. Guide to switch from Vendor ROM to EU ROM
But I would strongly recommend going through the guide posted by @underlines as you are new to flashing.

Yes! You wont have a problem unlocking bootloader. Boot the phone into fastboot mode and check unlock status first. Instructions are clearly given in the guides and everything should go well providing you carefully follow the guide.
Ok i will now Wait for my bootloader unlock message. Thank you

You fixed it once then broke it again make sure its charged properly before your next F-up, like everyone keeps telling no use pc-suite, it's fixable and a free lesson on android mobile. How would you even attempt changing roms without mi-flash and adb. I'm betting its already unlocked did you check?

Finally got my unlock message and got my phone unlocked. thanks for all the help. But i'm a bit confused following the guide since i'm a noob and don't want to take risks again. First of all do i need to flash the Chinese ROM again before flashing EU rom? Secondly on step 4 of flalshing EU rom it says this:
"type
Code:
fastboot flash recovery C:\path\to\your\twrp-3.0.2-0-rc2-eu-lithium.img
change the colored path to the correct path to your twrp file (not the EU one) and press enter"
what does "(not the EU one)" means?

You can use the TWRP RC2. This version has been confirmed by many to work with both the Official stable and dev ROMS.
Some have experienced issues with touch functionality within TWRP using RC1.
RC2 is the way to go. If you have already flashed one of the official roms, if you'd like to flash the EU ROM, you can follow my guide. Providing you follow all steps correctly, you should be on EU ROM.
Cheers!

Flashing official ROM is not necessary if TWRP is working fine. Flash TWRP RC2 using fastboot, if touch is working for you, you can proceed copying the required files.
Follow my guide on this link.
If TWRP is working fine for you, you can follow from Step 6. If touch is frozen in TWRP, follow my guide from Step 1.
If TWRP works for you, when it prompts you to swipe right, make sure you flash the dm-verity and forced encryption disabler from the link I have provided, soon after you have swiped right to allow system modifications. If not you may face a bootloop.
Keep the guide open and follow the steps.

GUYS Please help I'm Scared as hell, my K20 is stuck in fastboot mode and I don't know what to do! So here is what I did, I heard about the K20 Pro 81hz refresh rate Mod and the android 10, I couldn't find twrp for k20 so i decided to flash k20 pro's twrp (which probably was a big mistake!), I don't exactly remember what exact files i was flashing! I remember after flashing few files or just the twrp of k20 pro (i dont remember exactly) my phone was stuck in fastboot and is still now if i restart or go to recovery or anything it just leads me back to fastboot screen. I flashed android 10 recovery rom via fastboot,which i was not supposed to do, i didn't know the difference b/w the fastboot and recovery rom at that moment, but when i did i downloaded another rom but a stock rom for k20 fastboot variant I don't remember where I downloaded all the files but I downloaded the recovery rom from : https://www.xda-developers.com/download-miui-11-beta-now-for-13-xiaomi-devices-changelog/ and I downloaded the stock rom from : https://rootmygalaxy.net/redmi-k20-and-k20-pro-stock-firmware/ and I downloaded twrp recoveries from other sites, well I guess this is not important where i downloaded these. But after I try to flash the K20 Stock Rom by Mi Flash Tool (keep in mind i tried to flash the android 10 rom with mi flash tool also and that too by any all settings like clean all , keep data, clean all lock, i was just trying everything to get my phone to work! ) So then it gave me error of mismatching device so i searched on youtube to fix this error and tried it but still it wasn't flashing, then I thought maybe when I was trying to flash the android 10 rom many times I might have locked the boot loader, so i used the mi unlocker tool to see, i clicked on unlock it said it started the process, 3 step process of verifying device ,unlocking ,and done but it showed an error on the verifying device it said "can't get info, connect again ". This scares me have I locked the bootloader and now is there no way to unlock it or what??? I need your guys help please tell me what Rom I have to flash or what steps I have to take to get my phone working again! Please
I have a K20 Indian Variant, oh and yeah my bootloader was unlocked before I started to do all of this. I know what I have written might be confusing But PLEASE HELP ME!
Edit: and I also tried to flash the boot by getting boot image from android 10 rom, basically i just flashed randomly...
I also saw a few videos about the edl mode, i tried to get into edl mode and I got into edl mode so If there is a way to flash rom using edl mode do tell me
Edit: And I also think maybe the rom isn't flashing because I might have got the global rom or something can anyone send link to Indian K20 Stock Rom?
Edit: I just downloaded the k20 indian rom the correct one but when i flash through mi flash it says success in 1 second time that means my bootloader is locked but now ALL i need from YOU GUYS is to tell me How to Unlock it, I can't unlock it via Mi Unlock Tool, is there another method?

Maybe you flashed a rom for lavender (redmi note 7) instead of rolex(redmi 4a) so now your device is bricked, but thanksfully, there's a way to fix it. Follow the link below:
https://c.mi.com/thread-1479882-1-0.html
For easiness, here's the link for mi flash tool.
MIFLASH TOOL
And here's the stock firmware:
ROLEX FIRMWARE
Also, next time, whenever you dowload a rom, remember that your device is rolex. In the rom file name, see ROLEX.
Good evening,
I followed this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjHMp9ayjak&feature=emb_rel_end
to be able to connect my redmi 4a with the pc. I was then able to launch Mi flash Tool and flash the stock global developer rom.
at this stage, the mobile still does not turn on. No connection via fastboot or adb.

Why did you flash developer rom. Try to flash the rom which link i gave. Also, check if your usb cable is working or not.
Edit:
Also, do you tet the ful method.
You need to remove back cover.
Then using a tweezer, press the two edl pins on mobile motherboard(be carefull not to damage it)
Then connect to pc and open mi flash and flash the ron which link i gave you above. It should restore your phone. Otherwise, show it to a shop.
The usb cable works because I was able to connect to the pc and Mi-Flash tool.
I always put a stock developer rom because I want to be able to install behind a custom rom. So I need the unlocked bootloader.
I will try with your rom. No, I have not tried the full method. I will do it.
I hope the battery is not dead ...

Umm, i have never installed a developer rom and i am still able to flash custom roms. Currenlty i am using crdroid 6.3 rolex
It seems all right
Thank you
Hello,
I started the procedure twice.
Each time, for the mobile to turn on again, it was necessary to disconnect and reconnect the battery cable and the one that allows the EDL (small cable next to that of the battery); otherwise, the mobile remains off whatever we do.
This is not mentioned anywhere in any tutorial. I put it here in case it could help one out.
Another thing, your stock rom seems better than mine because I got the scale in landscape format. However, I read in the tutorial that you transmitted to me that there could be fakes in the global stock roms ...
Hi. I cannot download the custom crdroid rom 5. I only have 6. and I cannot install the 'viper4android' module from magisk on Android 10. It seems that the application cannot be install only on android 7.8 or 9.
would you have a link for crdroid 5?
Hi. Do you have a valid link for a global developer rom?
I explain: by installing 'your stable rom' via edl mode, I got all my sensors. then I flash twrp and the problems start. I have error messages during installation. then the lineages os 17 rom installs well except that ... I no longer have my sensors ... So I was wondering if with a rom developer, it would change something

It happend with me too, all you need to do is re-flash your persist (it contains all the sensor files).
---------- Post added at 01:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:43 AM ----------
To flash persist,
join the official redmi 4a group in telegram (if you use): t.me/redmi4aINT
Here, you will find persist zip.
Also, persist is device specific.
OR.
From the stock rom file. copy "persist.img" to you internal storage.
in twrp, open terminal and type
Code:
simg2img /sdcard/persist.img /sdcard/persist_EXT4.img
dd if=/sdcard/persist_EXT4.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/persist
It will fiix it.
Hello,
Thank you for your help. Everything is working. On the other hand, the rom 'crdroid' does not work correctly. I returned to lineage 17.
I don't know how it says [solved] in the title?
Got the bootloader unlocked..should've read more & implemented over a proper guide.
long story short:
stared with magisk apk..when phone was fine.. then got into bootloop;
quickly downloaded & flashed the global (lime) MIUI V12.0.5.0.QJQMIXM;
installed twrp; should've done this before.
wasn't able to copy anything into internal storage.
Used Twrp to wipe phone.. & flashed the stock_global_miui_(lime)12.0.5 boot.img in fastboot
because twrp was saying "unable to decrypt fbe device" on internal storage
formatted using twrp.
booted properly but setup says device is locked because associated with existing mi account can't open wifi but was able to activate device upon entering password on mobile data setup completes but device restarts frequently & still unable to access wifi
I think it has something to do with "unable to decrypt fbe device"..
should I try flashing custom rom boot img?
please don't ban me..tell if I did something wrong, I'll correct that..
..
Edit:
MiFlash-tool Worked
Flashing other compaitable custom Rom also worked
..
Had twrp wipe the whole phone and the format the partions
& then flashed in fastboot & everything was normal.
..
FBE device encryption is basically storage encryption that prevents dirty flashing miui rom via fastboot.
this can be avoided by implementing proper procedure of magisk & use of lazypatcher.
Thank you so much.. @Cursader & @zoel.fahmi for pointing me in the right direction.. godbless
[solved]
Currently I'm running Miui just like a new device.
I will make another guide thread on rooting systemlessly & flashing other custom rooms... if I succeed I will link it here..
Try to reboot bootloader
then flash twrp
wipe everything and format the data partition
reboot to twrp again
then flash custom rom
If you're flashing miui again, your phone bootloader will be lock again and you need something like lazy2flasher if you wanna keep miui with twrp and magisk etc.

you can use custom rom from Poco M3 since it's used the same SoC (662)
here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/f/poco-m3-roms-kernels-recoveries-other-develop.11969/
check the thread name Poco M3 / Redmi 9T or unified or codename like citrus and lime
whats the difference between Lime, Citrus, & Juice..
Mine is Lime
Juice is Lime & Citrus I think..
So will Juice work on a device which previously ran Lime?
..
basically can I install PixelPlusUi_Juice
or should I first try the lazy2flasher.. & @zoel.fahmi
where do I get lazy2flasher
If anything goes for me (RedmiNote9Pro) i just use miflash to flash original miui and start all over from there, might not be the quickest method but is easy and reliable

If the bootloader unlocked and you can go into fastboot you can flash stock rom and It's just like it came from the store! Here you have link for your convinience: https://c.mi.com/oc/miuidownload/detail?guide=2
MiFlash-tool Worked..
(its the best tool for bringing mi devices from rom mess back to scratch new)
Flashing other Rom also worked..(pixelui)
juice = lime + citrus (works for both)
Thank you so much.. @Cursader & @zoel.fahmi for pointing me in the right direction..
Quick update and guide for those wishing to root their Xiaomi on the lastest stable MUIU 13 since TWRP is no longer working on Android 12 MUIU 13.
No need to downgrade version, just use whatever you latest ROM you are on. This should be compatible with newer phones 11T and possible 12 Pro.
Prequesite: Bootloader must be unlocked for this to work.
~~Guidance Only~~ IT IS YOUR RESPONSABILITY THAT YOU UNDERSTAND BASIC FLASHING METHODS AS I TAKE NO RESPONSABILITY FOR MESSED UP AND BRICKED PHONES~~
1.Create Xiaomi Folder on C: drive.
2.Download your ROM Fastboot file ( Not upgrade, nor downgrade, but identical whats on your phone ) XDA 11T pro ROMS
3. Download ADB & Fastboot Mirror Link from Get Droid
4. Extract zip or tgz file into created XIAOMI Folder on C: drive. Extract it in same folder. It then becomes .tar file. Open with 7-zip and extract again. You will now have an openable folder with your ROM. Enter IMAGES folder and copy file 'boot.img'
5. Connect your phone and transfer the 'boot.img' file into storage main folder.
6. Download Magisk app from official Github source v24.3 MAGISK v24.3 Github
7. Install Magisk apk on your phone. Then run the app, and click install- Select and Patch File. Run the file you copied accross into phone storage folder. App will patch and save into Downloads folder on your phone. Then Disconnect & reconnect your phone to PC.
8. Copy patched file from your phone storage into XIAOMI folder created in step 1. When done rename the file to patched_boot.img and Copy to clipboard.
9. Enter File folder for Minimal ADB & Fastboot from step 3 and paste the file in the folder.
10. Run CMD or Powershell command C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>
( in my case, Powershell gave error so I ran the fastboot via CMD and that worked for me.
Make sure in cmd that you open the directory of the Program files Adba and fastboot, list directory before executing.
If you unclear how cmd works, post below and someone will help with CMD 'How To'
10. Power your phone off, the power it on in fastboot mode ( Volume Down+Power) and conenct to your PC
11. Execute Command Fastboot devices ( to see if your phone is connected)
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>Fastboot devices
If Phone is connected it will display the serial and connected.
12. Now run cmd C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
It will exceute the cmd and flash the new patched image to your phone. 5 seconds job
13. When finised run cmd fastboot reboot ( C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot reboot) and viola!! Phone resets and restarts in fully rooted mode!
Configure as you like. In case you want to reverse, follow same steps but flash NON patched boot.img from step 4 and your back to OE state.
Thats it for the moment, phone is rooted, lets wait for TWRP and future updates.
Comments, updates, SafetyNet ideas, bypasses are welcome below! I have no idea if you can update a new release on top of root without TWRP so Id hold off on automatic up[dates for the moment until we have more developments on TWRP and MIUI 13.
Have fun
I gonna wait for someone else to try it I'm tooo lazy of I screw something up to restore it. I have resurrected mi 8t, lavander, poco de but. Años I'm on European ROM. So it I get inspired I will try on weekend. I really wanted root. Now I don't remember why but I guess is pretty much the law that ally phones are rooted. Really clean instructions hope someone try it. Will keep following this thread

How is the battery backup in eu as compared to stock ?
A little better nothing special
It is just normal procedure. Passing safetynet is also described in another topic. I can Just say that after update to Miui 13, My phone is getting to be normal. WiFi and bluetooth is working like it should!
Xiaomi 11T Pro EEA MIUI V13.0.15.0.SKDEUXM
Okay question, how do we update safely? I tried OTA and my phone does not seem rooted anymore and my Magisk got deleted. Any way for me to root the phone without completely uninstalling all my apps? Should I redo the steps mentioned at the top of this post?
(Yes I read too late I shouldn't update yet haha)
EDIT:
I just redid the steps and it worked like a charm. Probably just redo the steps of patching and reflashing boot img.
I am not sure if I could download and install OTA update, download and patch correct corresponding img for device and then directly go into fastboot before restarting (after OTA update) to reflash the corresponding patched boot.img so that your magisk app doesn't get uninstalled and your root is lost. Someone could try this out
@Jamezsss
Use TWRP. Flash update.zip via twrp and then flash magisk after again. That's all.
Updated & rooted.

As far as I gathered that doesn't work on MUI13 Android 12.

If you want a specific answer ask a specific question including at least the version of the rom.

Version rom: Xiaomi 11T Pro EEA MIUI V13.0.15.0.SKDEUXM
Updated my question. But you already linked me the article about TWRP which I didn't find yet. Which answers the question.

So if i want to upgrade to a newer version?
I know earlier you just flashed the newer MIUI version with Xiaomi flash tool with the fastboot rom and later on rooted it, does that still works?

If it is to change version, use Mi Flash, for an update the Twrp will do.
