Mi5 - Softbricked. Help please.

My mi5 is stuck on this screen.
I have access to TWRP on the mi5.
It has unlocked bootloader.
Adb and mi drivers are installed.
Have access to OTG.
Can anyone kindly guide me through the simplest process here?
For recovering my phone do I have to flash global stable/developer necessarily?
I had global developer previously (miui9) to which I flashed TWRP successfully but when I was flashing the SuperSU zip, it got stuck here.
Kindly help me fix this and tell me what I did wrong to get softbricked.

I know it's in bad condition lol, I drove over it and then bought a new phone so decided to experiment with it.
Sadly it's he hardest phone to root/recover I've ever encountered.
I've played with Samsung Galaxy Alpha/Few Sony Ericsson phones and a spare Gionee M5 lite, even though they had less support I figured them out pretty easily.

bootloop, locked bootloader, flashing with testpoint doesn't work

Hello guys,
like many other people my Xiaomi A2 phone don't want to boot anymore. Everytime i tryied to start, it got stuck at Android One screen an reboots. I've tried every powerbutton/vol-button combination i could found but nothing worked, only fastboot mode was possible. I red very much here and in other forums. Because my bootloader is locked, I opened my phone to flash it with the testpoint method. I tried different versions of the mi-flash-tool between 2015 and 2018 and also tried various rom versions between V9.6.13 and V10.0.13 but nothing worked. Mostly the process fails with the Error "ACK Count don't match". Especially with newer versions of the mi flash tool.
I have the global version of the phone and never flashed any other rom before the phone got bricked.
The drivers I use are from the mi community forum (can't post link because i'm new. Title is: [All in One] MIUI Flashing Guide: Unbrick, EDL Method / Locked Bootloader, Unlock Bootloader, More)
I also tried different USB Ports.
It would be really great if you could help me with any other idea or tip!

where you from? do you have telegram? i was in dsame situation last night but i manage to make it work doing testpoint method.

Go Service Center Your Problem Solve Because I Face Same Problem And Know I Save My Mi A2 Life

Hello. Did you manage to solve the problem?
I have the same situation.

I don't know if this is the same situation as you guys, but I managed to successfully flash my MI 6x with wayne v 10.3. Even then the phone always starts in a bootloop. I'm beginning to suspect this is a hardware problem.

I faced a similar issue. Have you managed to solve it? I also have the same error and can't flash "ack count don't match"

Bricked my phone today...

So I had flashed TWRP earlier and didn't realise that I had to reflash the stock recovery before re locking the bootloader. I re locked the bootloader because I wanted the finger print scanner to work again, but now I am left with a bootlooping phone. I was going to try to flash the stock recovery, but I cannot install the Realme X2 Pro drivers for some reason on Windows. I am going to try using FWUL to flash the stock recovery, but I don't know if it is going to work. Any advice for a poor noob soul like me?
Edit: FWUL was no dice. Couldn't even get the phone to be detected while holding down the volume button to possibly put it into EDL mode. I'm gonna have to buy an EDL cable so I can short it and boot to EDL and reflash the stock recovery. Tune in on Sunday to find out what happens next!

Don't buy any cable, you can't boot to EDL without twrp.

I actually managed to get it in EDL mode and it shows up in device manager in Windows. I don't know what to do from here though... I tried using the msm download tool but i cant get the tool to even open on my PC.

Really ? How, with cable ?
With locked bootlader I am sorry to say this but you need unbrick (EDL) rom of X2 Pro.
Maybe try OnePlus 7T's unbrick rom ? Who knows it might work if they both share the same loader, or you may end up with hard brick.

No not with a cable. I just held down the volume up button while plugging it in and it went to EDL mode. I dont think I will be able to use the OnePlus rom, but I know they do use the same bootloader so maybe it's possible? I am gonna wait and see if i can get the msm download tool for this phone from support and use that before going to the last resort of the OnePlus rom.

Funny thing, I have CN version, first thing I tried Volume Up and plugging ubn cable, like any other OnePlus till today, but no luck. My phone goes into EDL only from twrp.
Anyway, I am searching Chinese forums for unbrick rom too, will let you know if I can find.

did you find anything ?

Found the rom but MSMSdonwloader wats password.

No one yet knows and until a working Tool is found then it’s game over. I have tried twice contacting RealmeEU but they never respond. Absolutely terrible customer service, where they can’t reply to an email.
Despite the X2 being a great value device, what they really need to also vastly improve on is responding to their customers.

I brick my CN version Realme x2 pro too. but I flashed official ROM with OTG and resolved.

I tried, edl not work, there is no worked msmdownloadtool.

Anyone find a unbrick method yet?

any update yet??
i have the exact problem

Hello , I was successful to extract the ofp firmware for the CN and GLOBAL version. The firmware is kind of QFIL based firmware and include patch0.xml , rawprogram0.xml , prog_firehose_ddr.elf that can be loaded on the Qualcomm QFIL tool for flashing a stock rom on EDL mode without having a unlock bootloder. I have posted a guide, go try it and post a comment if it works - https://forum.xda-developers.com/realme-x2-pro/how-to/to-unbrick-hard-brick-device-lock-t4091925 .Please read full details in the guide .

so, did someone managed to find a way around that?
i got the same issue bootloader Locked with unable to boot device due to damaged (boot/recovery)
but I can get to the EDL Mode
is there something I can do to fix this with del mode?

Also i get mine brick is there any way to solve it ?

Any updates yet? My phone isn't bricked but I'm trying to be sure whether i can flash stock rom if anything goes wrong..

Do you wanna have stock installed?
Then you could just flash that with mi flash.
All data on the phone will get lost though.
Do you need anything badly that's on your phone at the moment?
In case you rather wanna try out a custom ROM (which I would so much advise in this case where you need to reflash stuff anyway) the steps are different. So write back if you need hints how to get there.

thanks for the answer. ive alredy solved problem with instaling miui 11 whats been mainly reason what i was doing. i had some troubles with cmd
command to run twrp. if anyone get faced with this issue .. contact me
thank you again. Rom is awsome ???

Hard bricked

Yesterday updated to Android 10 and all were ok until I decided to fix the broken fp.. With stock recovery i tried through adb to lock bootloader. That's it.. Now phone only vibrate every 2 secs with Realme logo appeared and disappeared. I can't enter on recovery or bootloader. I tried all button combinations with no luck. I think that the only solution is to visit a technical center. :crying:

The CN version is like this. Fingerprint can be used to unlock the BL lock phone. However, C7 should pay special attention to the fact that root and fingerprints cannot coexist. It should be officially added verification. Fingerprints are disabled when root is detected. It is said that the official detection of root is not very accurate. After all, magisk is still very powerful, everything is normal when entering the system, and C7 does not need a patch to close magisk core mode like C6. C7 safetyNet checks are also true. So how does the official know? Because the current magisk solution uses boot.img, that is to say, as long as it is not the original boot, the fingerprint will be disabled.
******** The above is only a personal guess.

Goddamn Similar Issue
Realme should've shared this important information about being stuck at bootloop when locking bootloader. Fed up of trying all the button and still no response. Had to wait for the service centre to be opened. Don't know when this will be fixed. XDA developers. you're the only one who'd be having any solution to this milisecond boot loop on realme x2 pro.. Didn't flashed any rom, just tried perfectly all step to lock bootloader. I hope xda developers guys might've the solution to this. Also unable to boot to fastboot nor to any recovery mode.

Had no issues on C23 with locking BL with stock recovery.
First thing I did was resetting the phone and then locking BL.
