Unbrick Xiaomi Mi A2 [jasemine]

Hello,
i have bought a new Xiaomi Mi A2 and thought it would be a really nice idea to flash magisk on it. First everything was alright. I unlocked my bootloader in fastboot with "fastboot oem unlock" and flashed twrp on the b partition. Unfortunately my device broke (don't know why... maybe the unofficial twrp with some bugs or...). So now i have a really big problem, because my twrp recovery is missing as well as the stock recovery. When i try to switch on the mobile i am stuck in bootloop (with the mi logo). Not even the bootloader warning is shown.
Fastboot mode is working but not really nice. Not even the mitu appears, no the display is black (or doesn't show anything.. The device's display is on).
My Mi A2 is recognized by the computer so I considered to flash the stock rom with fastboot.
I thought it would work, but in the mi flash programm i got the erorr: flash devcfg_a error.
Now i can't switch my mobile off, because when I'm holding the power button, it restarts and restarts and restarts...
I know i am stupid and maybe have done something wrong, but i would be soooo happy to get some help
Thank you so much!

Fastboot flashing unlock_critical
(It will wipe /data)
then flash with mi flash
But before doing that, try just flashing stock boot
Fastboot flash boot_a boot.img
Or boot_b if that's your active slot

Thank you very much for your answer.
Unfortunately i have wiped everything in twrp before (when it worked) so there's nothing stored on the device.
When i type in critical unlock only a big list of commands appears which can be used.... ?

I promised I would create an account here just to thank you if your method worked!
After doing something dumb (I typed some wrong commands I think) my A2 got into the infinite reboot, never got out of the android logo, I tried everything and literally thought I lost my phone for good ;n;
I downloaded "jasmine_global_images_V10.0.2.0.PDIMIFJ_20181206.0000.00_9.0_02b8deeb6d.tar" and flashed that on miflash and watched my phone come back from the dead like frankestein or something. He's doing great and is in top shape, thanks to your advice! THANK YOU VERY MUCH! Hope you have a wonderful 2019!

I have the same issue in PC I'm writing this from (in USB3.1 Gen2 and Gen 1 ports, and even in USB 2.0 ports), but have no problems in 2 other PCs I currently have access to.
For non-universal solution with my current PC please see more info in my answer in neighbouring thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=81693759&postcount=28.

Good luck unlocking a Honor device mate.
You can buy a poco but as you're in a Moto thread I guess you've noticed: we have Unlocking and Flashing guides, sooo... you know... Explains your question. If you still cannot decide, buy Poco F1, I heard they allow the fun without voiding stuff people cry about!

About flashing recovery shouldn't it be, fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

Actually fastboot boot twrp.img is used to boot using twrp. It'll only happen once and will leave you stock recovery untouched after next reboot. It just boots the twrp for once. While fastboot flash recovery twrp.img is used to replace stock recovery with twrp.
I think this is the case.
There are some devices that won't let you boot directly like this and others will boot the image in a one go.
Someone correct me if I am wrong.
I'll suggest you to use command "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" to avoid any problems.

fastboot boot or flash..?
As it turns out, we have a A/B partition setup on moto one power, which means there is no separate recovery and boot partiion.
when we are doing fastboot flash ...| its flashing the boot partion. which in this case will break things, the correct way to do this is
fastboot boot ... and then get twrp installer and take it from there.

This method to unlock bootloader works in moto one xt1941-5?(not moto one power) i suposse yes, but better can secure

Well one way would be to download drm info from playstore
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.androidfung.drminfo
Or if by any chance you have netflix check for this hd logo
If it checks even after unlocking the bootloader then widevine l1 was not lost heres a screenshot

Bricked Mi 8

Hello and sorry for new thread if this was already discussed.
I have Chinese Mi 8 with Global unlocked ROM.
I tried to flash Chinese developer ROM on it in hopes of locking bootloader.
Flash started but in status I see
|| echo Mismatching image and device
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I let it run for 30 minutes but nothing was happening
Then I decided to flash back my Global ROM but every time I hit refresh in MiFlash it looked like phone disconnected from PC and instead of Fastboot on screen I only saw "Press any key to shutdown" in top left corner.
MiFlash would recognize the phone if I restarted back to Fastboot but same problem - || echo Mismatching image and device
THis happens on both Chinese and Global versions now, it acts like it's flashing but I do not see any progress.
I also tried to remove these lines
fastboot %* getvar product 2>&1 | findstr /r /c:"^product: *dipper" || echo Missmatching image and device
fastboot %* getvar product 2>&1 | findstr /r /c:"^product: *dipper" || exit /B 1
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
from .bat files as some users suggested but it just got stuck on "fastboot %* erase boot" and not move further
any suggestions how to unbrick my phone?

try with miui flash tool downgrade firmware

Hi flash in edl mode
Hi You have to flash the fastboot rom (Chinese/global) starting with test point method. (EDL method). You can google how to do. Suggest take it to authorized center as it involves opening the phone and connecting through EDL method. Otherwise If you can find somebody who can do this , then you can do - but still will ask for authentication code - while flashing. You can get the same with s-unlock.com for a charge...

you mean XiaoMiTool? same behaviour as MiFlash - device detected, when I try to send command to it it disconnects and XiaoMiTool says to allow usb debugging which is not possible
same issue was reported here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5-pro/help/help-press-key-to-shutdown-fastboot-t3816021
so I tried using different USB 2.0 port and even installed Windows 7 virtual machine to try it in Win 7 - same result

change usb port to 2.0 and try flash again in fastboot mode

Ask for help someone who has better knowledge about computers. You must change drivers manually at device manager. Watch some videos on YouTube how to do it. Connect your phone in fastboot mode any check device manager. It's not allowed any exclamation mark at the ADB device

thanks for info
will have to ask some friends for help as I only have systems with Ryzen(1st and 3rd Gen)
I'll try over next week and update if I'm successfull or not.

So I just tried to flash from Intel system and guess what?
IT WORKED - well, partially
After all the trouble I wanted to just flash Global ROM but that kept failing(too many links) after various amount of time
So I tried Chinese developer ROM and that one worked
Took a while to understand what it asks from me in Chinese but it was just my account password
So for now I'll keep this ROM, see what's the difference, what I cannot use, try to unlock bootloader officially and then flash Global ROM(if possible)
Thanks all for your help!

A friend had the same problem with ryzen CPU, we tried on my intel laptop and everything works okay!

Can't downgrade EMUI from 9.1.0 to 8.0.0

Hello,
I got a Honor 9 lite from a relative, it is not relevant but I changed te battery and the screen. This device is slow, therefore I wish to install a custom ROM(as in LineageOS) on it.
The issue is that the first step, from what I understand, is that I need to downgrade it to 8.0.0. The issue is that at each attempt I get a "software update failed", or when the device is plugged to my laptop, it get stuck at 5% before booting back.
Guide don't really lead my anywhere, therefore I need help to figure out :
How to downgrade
How to unlock the bootloader
insstall TWRP (I sould be able to handle it from there)
I tanks you in advance for the help.

1. Now, its impossible to downgrade it officially bcoz huawei removed this feature from his hisuite software.
you have to take help from third party developers. But i tried those roms they were not most stable and most of the apps were crashing while changing tasks.
2. If you want to unlock bootloader you need to unlock FRP first. You can do this by short circuiting testpoint and circuit board. Also try to get help from google and youtube.
You will also need software like potato nv for changing bootloader code after unlocking frp and during frp unlock.
3. Using fastboot cmd you can unlock bootloader and flash twrp.
4. If your phone is slow. Then try to install magisk and then overclock your cpu and gpu.
This will help for faster experience
I will sooner upload a video on youtube on which i will explain and demostrate you for this topic
that video will cover all this topic. Including practically

Thanks for the answers, I can't usually trust most of the google front pages.

1. You can downgrade to Oreo via HiSuite. If the rollback option is not available with your HiSuite ("switch to the older version" or "Earlier version"), you must downgrade to the lower (first) 9.1.0 build version number doing the dload method (flashing Service ROM ) and try again with HiSuite. sometimes better results are with the Chinese version:
Link
2. A) using HCU-client or DC-unlocker (you have downgrade to Oreo build number with google patch april-june 2018 via dload method)
B) for free (that can be done on 9.1.0 ) using potatonv method, Guide
in both cases, you will get an BL unlock code.
How to unlock:
- In Developer options in your phone enable OEM unlock option (with this setting you will get "FRP unlock" status in fastboot mode, it's very important).
- Connect your phone in fastboot mode to the PC and run command
fastboot oem unlock xxxxYour_Codexxx
fastboot reboot
3) Download TWRP
Link

you want to unlock bootloader you need to unlock FRP first. You can do this by short circuiting testpoint and circuit board. Also try to get help from google and youtube.

1. You can downgrade to Oreo via HiSuite. If the rollback option is not available with your HiSuite ("switch to the older version" or "Earlier version"), you must downgrade to the lower (first) 9.1.0 build version number doing the dload method (flashing Service ROM ) and try again with HiSuite. sometimes better results are with the Chinese version:

2. A) using HCU-client or DC-unlocker (you have downgrade to Oreo build number with google patch april-june 2018 via dload method)
B) for free (that can be done on 9.1.0 ) using potatonv method, Guide
in both cases, you will get an BL unlock code.
How to unlock:
- In Developer options in your phone enable OEM unlock option (with this setting you will get "FRP unlock" status in fastboot mode, it's very important).
- Connect your phone in fastboot mode to the PC and run command
fastboot oem unlock xxxxYour_Codexxx
fastboot reboot
3) Download TWRP

HiShuit does not recogise my device (LLD-L31), EMUI is still 9.1.0.
But I can try to dload with the chinese ersion you provided because I can't do so with the EU version. I will try this out now to see if ti work.

this error appears on Windows 11, afaik. Sometimes it helps to install the full Microsoft Visual C++ (2005-2022) package.

No success.
Is there a precise version of 9.1.0 I need to dload? Or any of them good?

Build number is : 9.1.0.149(C432E6RR1P4)

~~I am bad at this~~
I am trying to use the forced update method by putting the dload folder in an SD card to downgrade EMUI.
From what I understand downgrading the firmware is the first step.

Already able to connect to HiSuite? That's the first step.
The lowest free FW version is .140

I will need to first downgrade to this thdn. Hopefully HiSuite will cooperate.
Also weird is that HiSuite has no issues detecting my Samsung phone.
Maybe I need to install something on the LLD-L31

In fastboot mode run commands :
fastboot oem get-build-number
fastboot oem get-product-model
fastboot getvar vendorcountry

Some might fail, so don't worry about it.

maybe you need to get on the Mi Unlock tool (download it > https://en.miui.com/unlock/download_en.html)
after downloading, open it up, you'll get this screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
click on the settings icon on the top right
then install the drivers. this will make fastboot mode work and make ur pc detect it whenever its in fastboot and fastbootd. follow the prompts in ur screen

adb is used only on system to communicate with it via commands to your phone or emulator
fastboot is used to specially manage partitions on your phone with flashing and erasing for the basics, thus doesnt work with the prefix adb and only with fastboot on both fastboot and fastbootd

if you are referring to flashing stock rom, you need the fastboot firmware incase anything goes wrong, as recovery is only used to update via the miui updater app

well now simply wait 1 week now, maybe you have been confused, no worries
theres another way with mtkclient to instantly unlock the bootloader, but takes more time and requires installation of other programs to run it, which can be difficult setting it up
