[Q] Nokia 8 Hard Bricked

My N8(TA1012) is hard bricked. I tried OST 6.0.4 and 6.1.2 and got error. I enter only Twrp and download mode. In Twrp, my files are corrupt. How to I fix without service?

the easy guide is use ntool.
If can use flash system and boot.img

Looks like you have the unlocked bootloader. Do fastboot flash unlock "your unlock.key" than fastboot oem unlock_critical and confirm unlocking on your device. Critical area restricts booting of service boots so OST can`t flash it. When the critical area is unlocked you can flash anything you want. I have TA-1004 and it works for me. I have rolled back to Nougat from Oreo this method. Hope it helps you.

What error you get?

But if you you have really hard-bricked (broken or drowned) nothing will help. The chips may be broken permanently and only service-center can repair it. Flashing the device in this state may kill it! But if its just result of unseccessful software experiments - try to do as I said above.

If you have unlocked bootloader try with fastboot file & Mi flash tool
http://en.miui.com/download-353.html
Read Method 2: Fastboot : http://en.miui.com/a-234.html
you have to go V9.6.16.0.ODIMIFE (Android O) & after if you want update to 9.6.17 etc...
Factory Reset can not do anything in this case
[Or try with edl mode... https://in.c.mi.com/thread-37902-1-0.html
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77327325&postcount=2 ] it is not easy but can be save the device

I am in the same situation, but instead of a bootloop, it just gets stuck in the "androidone" screen.
I can access fastboot, but not recovery menu. And of course the bootloader is locked. So I do not even now how to do the factory reset... or flash the official rom... (It always says not possible in lock state from fast boot).
Any help/specific instructions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

it seems like boot issue ..
If the data in storage not important you can unlock bootloader and it will force you to factory reset
If still same problem then you should flash thought miflasher and download official rom and flash it

Thanks, at this point I don´t even care about the data... and most of it is backed up.
The problem is that I had not selected the OEM unlock option, the command fasboot oem unlock does not work, and the miflash_unlock tool tells my that my account is not valid to unlock the phone. So I do not really know how to unlock the bootloader. Do you know if there is another way to unlock it/flash, that does not require opening the phone?

For me the problem seems to be related to magisk, once I restored the original boot.img, the phone boots. If I try to flash the magisk patched boot image, it returns to bootloop. I'm using magisk v18 btw. I'm unable to get root using magisk on this PIE version

If you are lucky, maybe you activated the photo and video backups and the videos/photos from your trips have been uploaded to https://photos.google.com from the different wifi hotspots that you may have connected to.

Had the same problem, in the end I decided to send it back for warranty repairs... and that fixed it of course, they probably had to open it to flash it in EDL mode, which I think you can do if you have the right screwdriver to open the phone.

If You are able to boot phone into bootloader (even with black screen, you can check with "fastboot devices" or looking for "Android Bootloader Interface" driver in Win DevManager), you can try this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/guide-reboot-to-edl-mode-fastboot-test-t3398718 to boot phone into EDL without opening case. More than that, may be its worth trying even simple "fastboot oem edl" command),

Redmi 4 (Santoni) bricked. Please help.

I unlocked my redmi 4 (Santoni) boot loader and flashed pixel experience ROM (https://mega.nz/#F!INZgnAZI!9fuWhfCuazOO5YPBjxGlmA). It was working fine for a few days (Small heating issue was there). Then one day while i was charging the phone the phone turned off and never turn back on. When i try to switch on the mi logo flashes for a split second and then turns off. I tried to get into recovery but couldn't.
I can get into fastboot mode. I tried flashing the phone using Mi flash tool and fastboot rom. But it shows an error "flash tz error". When i tried an old version of mi flash tool i get the "Unspecified error (0x80004005: FAILED (remote: Critical partition flashing is not allowed))
Please Help.....

Have you tried installing TWRP via fastboot?

I had the same exact problem, i put my phone on charge & when i came back to check it was switched off. It wouldn't turn on except the mi logo. I tried to flash through fastboot turns out my bootloader was re-locked for some reason. I had to re-unlock it then proceed on to fash fastboot miui rom. Check if your bootloader is locked or not.

This is a good idea! Probably u first try to install trwp in fastboot mode. If this doesn't work try to unlock bootloader again and then install trwp.
When all these Option doesn't work u still can open the phone and use edl fastboot mode to flash miui again.

Tried unlocking boot loader and was not successful because the phone was bricked. My only option was to use edl test point. Now i installed miui 11. (Aprart from some minor bugs which can be eliminated by reflashing some other roms) Thank you guys. Now my phone is successfully unbricked.

For somebody who is having the same issues,
My phone (Redmi 4_Santoni) was completely bricked. The only thing i can access was fastboot by pressing the volume down + Power button combination. But i could not install twrp or any other recovery because my boot loader was locked. I got it fixed completely with the help of you guys (Thanks again) and i want to share the procedure i went through.
Condition: Completely bricked with only fastboot access, Locked bootloader.
I tried this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j27x5iJSS40) but failed because i could not access recovery. So my only solution was to use edl test point flashing. I followed this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74818435&postcount=3. It was very easy to do. But in the device manager (Press Windows key + R and then type devmgmt.msc and press enter) instead of showing "Qualcomm HS-USB QDloader 9008", the device is shown as "Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E". The problem was you have to plug in in USB cable while the test points is being connected with a pair of tweezers or a paperclip as shown in the link above.
Make sure you already downloaded the latest mi flash tool from here https://xiaomiflashtool.com/ and download fast boot rom from the official website. (Go to https://en.miui.com/ Click rom downloads. Click flashing guide. Download the fastboot rom from there for your device.) Now flash your device using mi flash tool and voila. your phone is unbricked.
Thank you guys..

ASUS ROG2 SOFT BRICK

Hi ,
I have an ASUS ROG2 and I'm experiencing quite a problem here , I would like to know if this can still be rescue or not? or maybe I'm missing some steps here. here's what I've done so far.
Before it got to this dilemma my phone is suffering from autoshutdown so i rooted my phone using magisk and applied the thermal mode by one of the OP here. everything is working fine , the phone is not shutting down until today. it suddenly restart before me and it is stuck in ROG Logo.
what I've done.
1) i flash the stock boot img for my firmware version 2009.49 using fastboot flash boot 2009.49stock.img both slot A & B then followed by fastboot reboot so it can boot to system but it is still stock at the ROG Logo
2) i downloaded a RAW Firmware of 2009.49 , put my phone into fastboot mode. i made sure it was detected by the PC using the command fastboot devices and surely it was. i execute the flashall_AFT.cmd and waited , after it finishes my phone reboots but still stuck at the ROG Logo and here's the problem.
I reboot my phone into bootloader , scroll to Recovery after pressing Power button to select it , it boots and stuck at the ROG Logo at this point i'm confused since i need to factory reset it. so i downloaded TWRP for ROG2 Android 10 the one i usually use then i tried to boot from it using fastboot boot twrp10.img , it only boots and stuck at the ROG Logo again
3) I tried to flash a firmware using EDL mode , everything went well without any errors and there's the success message in Xiaomiflashtool , i reboot the phone to recovery and it is still stuck in ROG Logo.
any guesses? I'm kinda lost here since both RAW and EDL are not working.

You could try booting into TWRP 3.4.0-0 Q Unofficial by mauronofrio without flashing ( fastboot boot twrp-3.4.0-0-I001D-Q-mauronofrio.img ) , then copy the zip over to root of internal storage, either 2009.49 or lastest 2012.65, from here. Be sure to check during flash which slot gets flashed first. Then repeat the process, booting twrp so that you can flash the other inactive slot. If you want to be sure you have changed slots, click on reboot in twrp and see which is active before flashing. Good luck
Hopefully flashing both slots successfully will do it. Let us know how you get on.

I used the TWRP you've linked. and i'm afraid that it is stuck on the rog logo again..
what i've done. ' fastboot boot twrpQ3400.img ' after i sent that command , the phone reboots and instead of going to twrp , it goes to rog logo and stuck there.
is there anyway i could check if there's partition? it feels like the phone has no partition that's why it is always going back to the rog logo.

Did you change the name of the twrp file? the fastboot boot twrp-3.4.0-0-I001D-Q-mauronofrio.img cmd must have an identical name to the file, which as the original should be twrp-3.4.0-0-I001D-Q-mauronofrio.img
and just to be sure, you have the twrp img in fastboot folder, correct?

Yes i did rename it as twrpQ3400.img and yes also , it is in the same folder as my adb & fastboot folder enviroment.

Well i'm running out of ideas, never used QFIL so wouldn't know. since you cannot boot into twrp (i'm assuming you didn't relock bootloader? twrp won't work with locked bootloader), you could try this thread. be sure to use the supplied 1910.35 images as it tried and tested. read posts 1 and 2 at the very least, post 2 has useful steps
if successful, you'll then need to update 1910.64 before android 10 2004.60 to start with, then up to latest

did you remember to shut the phone down after successfully flashing, boot into recovery and wipe data, then reboot? as per the instructions...?

yes , ofcourse since the phone is in EDL mode the only way to shut it down is by using Power + volume up + volume down like around 15 seconds then phone will shutdown since the 9008 COM in device manager will be gone this means that it's no longer in EDL mode. i wait like 1minute before i power it up to recovery by power + volume down then scroll to recovery in bootloader. then with no luck still stuck to Rog logo..
it's like the recovery partition is gone...

Thanks man , i'm searching for the qfil approach but i'm getting a sahara error. currently searching for fixes
edit : i manage to boot the phone using the link you've provided by using QFIL approach and not thru XiaomiFlashTool
the phone boots successfully and i can use the recovery again ! although there's a problem , it can't read my sim card and everything is like stock android without any skins or what.. i used the RAW firmware to update it but the problem with stuck logo is back :/
gonna re-flash using QFIL and i'll check some more ~ maybe use TWRP and flash the firmware there no?
edit: the one from the link is not working , stuck at rog logo.. but the one from the internet i was able to boot to system but can't detect simcard , also when plugging to PC it will go to crashdump mode.
also can't flash TWRP will result in stuck at ROG logo :/

was able to boot the phone but can't connect to wifi and is locked by google frp :/ any guides i can follow to remove that FRP without wifi connection ?

Sorry bud, really not sure what's going on with your phone or know much more. Good luck with it tho

Actually, if you now have recovery, what about booting into twrp and flashing lastest 2012.65 zip from asus website, twice - both slots. see if that fixes your wifi issue
As you said using the QFIL approach worked to boot into system and recovery is back - boot to twrp from that state

edit: the one from the link is not working , stuck at rog logo.. but the one from the internet i was able to boot to system but can't detect simcard , also when plugging to PC it will go to crashdump mode.
also can't flash TWRP will result in stuck at ROG logo :/

Question REDMI NOTE 10S (Your system has been destroyed+ locked bootloader) error

I have redmi note 10s. I bacame bored of miui because of several bugs. So i decided to mod the device with a nice custom rom. I started the process. Because it is a mtk device, it has complicated flashing process than snapdragon devices. I entered the fastbootD mode and cleared the system by using adb command(which i dont remember). Then i flashed the custom rom. By mistake, I locked the bootloader by typing adb command fastboot oem lock. But now due to complicated case, the device is showing your system has been destroyed and when i try to force reboot it into fastboot, it still give systen destroyed error(means fastboot mode is inaccessible). Can anyone please help me to fix this issue without using edl pins? I am in a great issue

I cant go to service center as my device is out of warranty

in google there is a pc program than can unlock bootloader of mediatek devices, search for it

Bro i cant access the bootloader, so unlocking it doesnt make any difference

I want to restore the bootloader.

Okay so first of all download "mtk client"
Than open the mtk client
It will give you instructions on how to connect your phone, take back of everything except system(super),vendor and userdata. Tap on flash tab there you'll notice a option called unblock bootloader tap on it and your bootloader will be unlocked

Bro Will this restore my bootloader or only unlock it because if it only unlocks then your help wont work.

You need to see the PM I've sent to you. You will find it here.

Start from BROM mode - that is always available. Then you can use mtktool to restore everything. I have an article about it on my blog, but I am not supposed to post it here... find it in my profile, or send me a PM for help.
