EDL stuck after flashing October Patch with MiFlash

Hello everyone, I wanted to open a topic here because I'm about 6 hours that I'm trying, but without any success ...
practically, after flashing via MiFlash (the latest version available) the update of 8.1.0 with the patches of October, the smartphone has started correctly, and then, suddenly turn off and go into EDL mode.
I tried all the possible combinations with the keys, but the result is that it simply always goes to EDL (the computer, also in Device Manager, detects Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008) ...
When i try to flash any rom stock, MiFlash detects the smartphone, but by flashing it gives me "hello packet not received" or, after flashing the firehose and abl me files from "You can not authorized to Download !!!" or, start the flash and then disconnect the smartphone by giving "can not read from port COM *number*".
I also tried to replace the files inside "images" by taking the files from Patched Programmer, but the result is always the same.
I really do not know how to continue ...
By chance, does anyone have a solution?
Thanks in advance for any help from you.

1)your bootloader is unlocked or not when you flash stock rom with MiFlash?(fastboot oem unlock and fastboot flashing unlock critical and this will wipe all your data if you don't already use this command)
2)Hello packet not received is currently with USB 3.0 and USB 3.1 port, try USB 2.0 port and reboot your PC and the phone
3)If this not work try to use your warranty

Phone got bricked randomly - QUALCOMM HS-USB QDLOADER 9008 (NEED HELP)

I was using my mi a2 and it randomly freezed, then i restarted using power button, but he didn't turned on, now it is just black screen and i can't get into bootloader mode or turn the phone on.
Bootloader was locked, never tried to unlock.
I think it got stuck on EDL mode because it shows up 'qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008' on device manager on windows.
Already tried to use mi flash tool to flash the last ROM, it recognize the phone but fails every time.
Neither adb or fastboot recognizes the phone.
Some errors that i had using the tool:
Failed to open the SDCC Device slot 0 partition 0 (it shows up only on version 2019.11.15.0)
Cannot receive hello packet (when i get this error, i hold the power button for a few seconds then i try again only to get the error below)
Error when flashing storsec.mbn
Can someone help me?
UPDATE
I downloaded mi flash tool 2016.08.30.0 and i can successfuly flash the rom, but still got black screen with no response.

A year ago i had the same issue kinda. The only thing that worked for me was flashing mi 6x stock rom and after some trial an error it flashed and it fixed. The only problem is i have a mi 6x forever. Basically download mi 6x stock rom. Try that mi flash tool and keep hard rebooting and click flash button right after it vibrates. If lucky sometime will work and flash. If nothing try older versions of mi flash tool. Good luck.

all of you have the same problem ... you bootloop into edl mode because you have ARB4 triggered ..that means the only stock you can flash in miflash is ARB4 rom ( latest most up to date )
you also need patched programmer file since flashing ARB4 requires miui account
the fix to this problem is documented everywhere and explained lots of times ...just read ..follow this guide and one-click tool to unbrick
next time read ......a little ..

[URGENT HELP] Pure stock Redmi 4A bricked (No Usb debugging or anything enabled)

Hey Guys,
One of my younger brother some how managed to brick a stock 4A, and when starting it up, its stuck at the MI logo, however I am able to go in the Fastboot and stock recovery via the side volume and power buttons and the phone is charging while powered off.
I have tried factory resting via the stock recovery, but no use, still stuck at the logo.
Is there any app or software like odin (for Samsung), where I can flash a stock Rom in fastboot via my pc? If so can you please share the link to the thread or step by step instructions to do so?
i want to share again, its stock with no Xiaomi account or any USB debugging enabled from the developer options as it is pure stock. I have also attached the pictures of the phone with this message (I know it won't help, but just in case).
I want to thank every one for giving me their time in assisting me in resolving this issue.
Have a great day.

Thank you bro, I tried, it, firstly it said Error: Flash Tz error" on flashing the rom via Mi flash. I did extracted it two times as stated and also tried extracting it once and I also tried placing the folder in C:/ drive (root), but the problem persists.
Also, I tried changing the drivers in device manager, but no use. I also downloaded ADB drivers, which gave me Xiaomi adb boot loader drivers but same issue.
Regarding the EDL, double clicking on edl.cmd, just reboots the phone to "MI" logo again and no black screens or red led light to show that its in the EDL mode, and I did tried flashing on the MI logo but the same results.
Please help.

Wow wait were u trying edl or fastboot
The method I provided is for fastboot not for edl(though most of it same except u need to remove the back cover and do something)
If u think u can really do edl mode flashing the see this vid
Link :-
I think edl is the only method to fix this problem
I reccomend you to give ur phone to a shopkeeper to do it
If u think u can DL the thing that guy did in that vid u r free to go ahead

Help unbricking xiaomi mi 9t pro think its hard bricked

Hi i unlocked my bootloader earlier today, worked fine. Got twrp, fine. then tried to copy roms to my phone to flash but couldn't see the phone so rebooted, then twrp wouldn't load was stuck in fastboot.
So tried to miflash back to stock rom and now device is not even showing fastboot just black screen. Can see qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008 in device manager when device is connected.
What files do i need to unbrick? i think when i went back to recovery i installed davinci and not raphael. Would this have bricked? How to unbrick? I need EDL?
Model is: M1903F11G
Any help, thanks.

[HELP] Mi6x HARD bricked?

Good day everybody
Straight to the point. I tried to flash a different rom, EU version of MI6X MIUI on my device and suddenly, at the reboot after the flash, the screen remained black.
Strange thing is that the device is still detected through usb on my pc, even on MiFlash its detected. But i cannot do anything, tried flashing a rom with Miflash but i get Catastrophic Error!
Please someone help me i dont want to change this phone!
Thank you so much!
Edit: after researching, i seem to be stuck in a useless EDL mode. My pc can detect the phone (Qualcomm 9008), but MiFlash cannot flash anything. The flash starts and based on the version of MiFlash im using gets stuck after a couple of seconds. for a different reason (Authentication on 2018 version, Send configure command on 2015 version) I dont understand. Please help

On MiFlash 2018 for example, i get the Not Authorized to Download error.
Maybe the fact that i tried to flash a global rom is the problem?

Try to install twrp , and flash hex kernel , and them flash EU rom, if is not possible , try to flash vía TEST POINT

That is the point. Its already in EDL mode, and my pc sees the phone. But Miflash doesnt allow me to flash because of authorization.

that error is because of your ARB .. DOwnload the latest rom with highest ARB level ...like explained in the guide
if you have latest rom with highest ARB level but still get errors start trying all different versions of Miflash ..I tried three or four before I found one which worked ..

So i tried again with this release V10.3.6.0.PDCCNXM_20190816.0000.00_9.0_cn, with multiple different miflash builds, same error. Tried patching the rom and not. Nothing worked, same edl authentication problem.
I believe, pretty sure, this is the build that bricked the phone: xiaomi.eu_multi_MI6X_8.6.28_v10-8.1
Maybe it can help you understand better? Also, how do i determine which is the highest ARB build available?
Thank you so much for the help!

did this brick happen when you wanted to change from jasmine to wayne ?
the error you are getting is your phone was stuck in EDL too long ...if you wait for more than 10 seconds you get error ..
open your phone manually amd enter edl again with test point
change to Miflash amd flash but dont wait longer than few seconds
also try with QFIL ...sometimes it will work when Miflash has timeout error
and every error is different ..if you dont tell me the error i can not say ..if you bricked with the 8.1 rom you dont have bad situation .. low ARB ..or if you used conversion zip you wont have ARB and your problem is you are too long in Edl mode
try to enter fastboot by holding power and volume down for very long time ..
if it doesnt work your only way is test point ..im sure you dont want that problem but it is all
explain your errors better if you want success ...if you go to fastboot see if computer will listen to command
fastboot oem edl
try the flashing again .....

look below

Ok so, ill retry explaining
I was on a CHINA Wayne MI6X originally, unlocked bootloader and TWRP. It was only updated through OTA and never flashed any custom rom before.
Then, i tried through TWRP to flash this build xiaomi.eu_multi_MI6X_8.6.28_v10-8.1, which is a EU rom, think it is A2 rom and the devices reboot to a black screen, EDL mode.
After, i tried flashing many different versions of WAYNE CHINA roms through different builds on MiFlash but none worked. MIUI 10, 11, even 9 but always get EDL AUTHENTICATION error.
So, CHINA to EU to EDL bricked phone.
Now, i tried rebooting to fastboot holding for a long time VOL- POWER button but adb doesnt see the phone, i think im still in EDL mode, because device managaer sees it as QUALCOMM 9008.
Also, now on MiFlash 2014 i get Error loading type library/DDL. (0x80029c4a: wait port ready to use 9)
Same on MiFlash 2015 and 2016.
On MiFlash 2018 i get EDL AUTHETICATION error.
Same o Miflash 2017.
Let me know if you understanded better, still, thank you again!

ok man i think you made a big mistake flashing that package because it locked your bootloader ( i think ) ....
if the computer can see your phone as qualcomm9008 it is in EDL mode
you can save your phone but the authentication error ..could be ARB or locked bootloader ..
but anyway your best and ONLY option now is to get android 10 .zip for Wayne ...latest update for MIUI .. then
follow the instructions in the unbricking thread i sent you ..unzip ..search for folder in MIFLASH ..
-download QFIL flasher ..install and run AT SAME TIME
- select the choose port manually option and leave window open
( so three windows open .. miflash ( ready ) ... QFIL with sekect port open )
- then connect your usb cable to computer ( not phlone )
- get a paperclip and open it and fold it in half to look lkke tweezers
- then on another phone or computer follow video on how to open phone and do test point ( you will hold the twi points of the paperclip on two points in the phone )
- while holding the pin on the points insert usb to phone with free hand
- look at the select port manually window of QFIL ...when you see a device appears here let go of pin ..
now say okay to close sekect port window so it closes ..
- on Miflash press " refresh " then "flash" QUICKLY ..dont wait longer than 10 sec
- it will start to flash
*to opem your phone you need a guitar pick to push between the screen and body ...also special screw driver ( buy on Amazon ) to remove screws you see in video ..
# the reason is your phone has been too long in EDL to flash anymore ..so if you cant exit and enter EDL withbuttons or fastboot you ONLY have one option and that is testpoint
#that is why i said it must in 10 sec after you enter EDL that you flash or you will just have more errors everytime
***then you must just continue to enter and exit tesrpoint using my technique until one copy of Miflash will finish without error .BUT KEEP IN MIND ..everytime you fail you need to start over bevause too much time passed since you were in EDL
******dont lose hope beause miflash will accept and flash the officiak rom ARB4 ... if you find the right miflash version amd start flashing before EDL timeout
good luck bro go watch testpoint video and search for a guitar pick and screwdriver

ok good work it is a good guide and it will help other people if they have trouble finding modified programmer files or connecting the phone and flashing quickly enough
here the difference was that i assumed but forgot to remind you to use the patched programmer files not to be rejecting but it was also included in the post of other XDA guy :good:
