Hi, my Xiaomi Mi 9 Lite was running the latest version of MIUI 12 Global and I wanted to install Evolution X 5.6 ROM on it. Unfortunately when I tried flashing the Evolution X ROM I got an error saying that I needed firmware version 10 for it to work. By that time I had already wiped system, cache and data and for some reason TWRP isn't installed anymore either. So, basically my phone is now stuck in fastboot and sometimes it turns off and then back into fastboot.
At this point I'm not sure what to do since I don't want to make it worse, but I can still access my phone via adb. Has this happened to anyone else? What should I do?
Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Hello guys, I really need your help!
I've just spent 5 hours trying to fix my Xiaomi Mi 8 bootloop.
Everything began this morning when I started a common update. After the reboot I got just an infinite bootloop on the white word "MI" that i get every time I turn the phone on.
I bought the phone from China with a Global rom already installed and the bootloader unlocked. I can access fastboot.
Here what I did today, until now:
-I decided to install a TWRP, only the 3.2.3.0 worked after many attemps with other versions.
-From twrp I flashed the last xiaomi eu stable. Result? Bootloop was still there.
-I flashed the last xiaomi eu weekly. Result? Bootloop there.
-I decided to go through Mi Flash.
-I installed the tool and downloaded the last Global Stable for fastboot installation.
-I flashed the global from Mi Flash. Result? Bootloop is here.
I don't really know what to do. Every time i did factory reset from twrp. I tried also to make the factory reset from fastboot command. I tried everything I could find online. No solution, same infinite bootloop.
Any suggestion? Thank you very much
Simone
Did your find a solution? I have the same problem.

Hi, after many attemps I installed the xiaomi.eu!
I could install china stable from mi flash, but I was not satisfied with a lot of Chinese apps. After that I installed again the twrp and I could put the ROM pixel experience. After pixel experience if I am not wrong I tried another twrp (I need to check) with which I could install the Xiaomi EU!!! Now I don't want to update anymore
If you need help I can check the version of the last twrp I have used! I guess it was an anti backroll protection because I could install the last china dev but nothing else, neither from that twrp.
If you need help ask,
Bye bye
is it because of encryption issue? from the first day i use mi8, i always on decrypt.
my step to flash any rom is:
1. flash rom
2. magisk
3. flash dm-verity
never had bootloop issue
flashing dm-verity should fix it.

Hi I have/had the same problem!
- The only rom I got working was the "xiaomi.eu_multi_MI8_V10.0.11.0.OEACNFH_v10-8.1." which I stil use.
- I also can get the the official "dipper_global_images_V10.0.2.0.OEAMIFH_20180912.0000.00_8.1_global" rom working but it stil keeps updating to the latest version after a while. If that happends I get the bootloop problem.
So I'm stuck at an android 8.1 .EU rom and I'm scared to update to the latest stable android 9.0 rom because of the bootloops and/or to brick it and to lose al my data again.
So my questions:
1 - do you use the latest stable ROM, (which one) at the moment?
2- how did you install it?
3 - which TWRP did you use to flash the .EU rom?
4 - I use an 8.1 .EU rom. Do you think I can update without losing al data again (my wife will kill me if I have to reinstall again)?
5- Any idea why we have this problem?
I really like to update to android 9.0
I just saw (!) that they released an official version of TWRP for the Mi 8 at https://twrp.me/xiaomi/xiaomimi8.html
Thanks in advance!
Hello, I have solved using a different TWRP with which I could install the xiaomi.eu weekly! I tried a lot of twrp until that one worked
Where can I find this twrp version? Anders on which exact version are you on?
My Mi 8 got bricked by the latest MIUI update. I installed the software update from settings and clicked reboot and it booted straight to TWRP (more on that in a bit). I tried rebooting to system but it just went straight back to TWRP. I have unlocked the bootloader and also rooted my phone but as I kept the stock ROM I wouldn't think this would break it. In hindsight, after doing a bit of looking around it seems like people tend to reflash stock.img before updating or something when they've rooted their phone? Wish I'd known that before I clicked update.
I tried flashing a different ROM but when I go to reboot it just says "no OS installed. Are you sure you want to reboot?" and just goes into bootloop stuck on the Mi logo
using fastboot adb tools I can boot it into TWRP (has never worked using the volume and power buttons) and flashing ROMs seems to go okay but reboot says no OS installed and it bootloops, as I said.
I've tried flashing the latest MIUI build for my device, pixel experience, lineage OS and all of them yield the same results. Happy to answer any questions and try out any suggestions that anyone has. I'm really quite desperate!
SOLUTION: I flashed the stock firmware using the xiaomi mi flash tool. This fixed pretty much everything apart from now the camera doesn't work lol
What twrp you are using?

Wipe everything, FORMAT data and update xiaomi firmware.
Hey,
I need HELP.
I have Redmi 9. Unfortunately, I do not remember which ROM and which MIUI was installed. I think it was 12 GLOBAL.
I've tried to install TWRP and magisk, though something went wrong and I'm now in bootloop. I can get into fastboot but don't know how to continue from this position,
My thoughts that I've tried to install TWRP or magisk that don't fit to my phone.
Phone is unlocked.
unofficial twrp 3.4.2 Root Xiaomi Redmi 9 (Lancelot) claims to be a working TWRP and instructions for installing Magisk. (I don't have the phone, so I can't test it.)

well your best bet is to download the stock rom and flash it with sp flash tool using the brom bypass, only thing you have to know is which exact miui version you had, otherwise if you have an unlocked bootloader you don't have to worry that much as it will not harm your phone

Hi all,
I have a rooted redmit note 9 that was running the stock rom (EU version i believe as i am UK based) perfectly well for several months until today when then latest over the air update installed and my phone is now stuck in a bootloop where i can only access the custom PBRP recovery (installed from when i rooted previously). I can also access fastboot. I have tried wiping all data and cache etc, i have tried reflashing the magisk patched stock rom that previously worked, i have also tried flashing vbmeta that i flashed previously but still no luck. This is my only phone so I really need to get it working again.
I was about to try re-flashing the stock rom with SP tool but it tells me the scatter file is invalid.
Not sure what else to try now. I also note that when i PBRP loads up it always asks for a password however i dont have a password on the device.
Please could someone suggest something i could try?

your devices is encrypted try flash other custom rom first then try revert to stock hope it help u out
Thanks very much for your response. Based on your advice i tried to flash the latest Kraken 11 Vanilla rom from this fourm, however after installing via TWRP now i can't even get into recovery anymore, just goes straight to fastboot.
Any other suggestions please?
I have now managed to get back in to TWRP and tried flashing lineage latest rom but still i am stuck in a boot loop taking me to fastboot this time.
Please can someone help suggest hwo i can get my phone working agian. At this point i dont care which rom i end up (custom or stock) with as long as i can get it to function again
If your device is rooted, you can NOT update the system using the OTA (over-the-air), or the device will be stucked in bootloop.
If your device is rooted, you need to update the system MANUALLY, using the fastboot or spflashtool.
I suggest to update the system using the fastboot.
Now, you need to flash the whole MIUI again, except userdata and you will have your device back.
For anyone with a asimilar problem i eventually managed to fix my issue by using miflash tool version 20180528 and flashing merlin_eea_global_images_V12.0.10.0.QJOEUXM_20210413.0000.00_10.0_eea_c4a9d5d7fc fastboot version which i downloaded from the xiami site.
I had to try this multiple times because the extraction of the file did not seem to be correct on the first attempts.
When I try to install a ROM, no problem installing TWRP and flashing a ROM.
But when I restart, whatever the ROM it systematically restarts on TWRP.
Everything is back to normal when I reinstall the MiUi ROM.
I installed vbmeta, TWRP is kept even with the MiUi ROM.
I tried to install a ROM on MiUi but nothing happened, TWRP is launched systematically after restarting.
I tried with several versions of TWRP but nothing worked.
Also with LOLz kernel with and without; and Magisk too.
Sleep on it !
you have to format DATA and not Wipe !
Hello guys! I'm new here and don't know where to get help. My phone (Xiaomi 4g [phoenix]) has a weird bootloop to it.
I installed Miui 13 eu rom via the name of file is "windows_fastboot_first_install_with_data_format" now I get a bootloop that goes back to TWRP.
When i checked the my storage on my pc it only shows TWRP folder only. i don't know what to do. i've been sitting the whole day trying to figure to fix my phone.

sounds like your data got wiped, thats why theres only a twrp folder in internal. you should prolly full flash a fastboot rom since you mightve missed a few important steps
Hi Fonzacus
Please tell me
What is the reason for flashing that vbmeta img?
Is it always necessary when clean flashing latest crdroid custom ROM?

sorry for the super late response
its supposedly for bypassing android verfied boot (avb). it blocks unauthorized roms from booting. if you search for 'what is vbmeta', we literally get no info at all and mainly speculations (no official docs etc). imho it does seem true
