Hello, after unsuccessful OTA update my phone doesnt boot into Android any more.
I had an original, untouched xiaomi system (not a custom one, not rooted etc).
Bootloader locked like default.
I think update.zip could be faulty - I have no idea how.
I am able to run Fastboot but due locked BL I cannot do much there.
I deasemble phone, pull out the battery, connected EDL pinouts with a wire, and all this togetcher connecter to PC.
Phone is visible by PC.
Downloaded ROM, and tried to flash via MI Flash..
On last moment I am getting error with information that my mi.com account is not athourised to do such a thing.
I tried also Mi Flash Pro founded on Cyanogenmod forum, but without luck - still getting same error.
Does anyone know how to get out from this situation or should I rather open warranty process in Gearbest?

Just flash a custom recovery, the device even had the offical twrp. So?? Just not into fastboot and then flash the recovery by the -- command
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
(You have to rename the twrp file to recovery or whatever, just write the image file name instead of recovery in the second one. Ex fastboot flash recovery 123.img)
Then command
Fastboot reboot
(Hold the power up button for booting into twrp before hitting enter)
Download a miui recovery rom for your device from anywhere, I don't know I'm lazy.
And before flashing, go into mount select vendor and system if not selected.
And then select wipe
Advanced wipe
Select vendor system data cache.
Swipe to clean
Move the rom to your device
(If your device does not show up in your pc, then go into mount (twrp) select enable MTP if it's disabled, if it shows disabled then enable it again)
After that just flash your rom and then a permissive patch you can ask anyone. Or just flash pitchblack recovery. Fixed my problem of not not booting.
Sorry for the wrong format, wrote it on mobile, as I am a lazy bum.
Wut bruh.
Something similar happened to my friend's Poco F1. It was locked and I only could boot into fastbook, looked everywhere for a solution and found this lifesaving tool . It may work for Redmi 8 too.

thanks so much, that helped
Hello there.
Just like title says - I've got my hands on new Redmi 9 (lancelot) nfc 4/64 version. I've unlocked it from Mi stuff successfully yesterday and wanted to install there twrp, magisk and titanium backup to clean a bit and maybe to have foundations for further change of rom.
However, my phone gaves answers, that I do not understand correctly.
Firstly - after first instalation of twrp via adb it booted into this. However, after choosing option to boot to system from it, power off via ui and then another try to enter recovery...it gave me stock miui recovery again. When I've tried the same steps for second time, phone finished, but after restart it entered bootloop. I've followed steps from this guide - https://miui.blog/redmi-9/download-install-twrp-and-root-redmi-9-codename-lancelot/
After some time I've managed to make low-level rom instalation again (12.0.4 official lancelot rom, dated 31st of Mar, 21) to at least being able to communicate with it (done with usage of miflash 2018 version and rom in *.tgz file). This time, I've used help from this page - https://www.getdroidtips.com/guide-flash-miui-rom-xiaomi-devices/ - had some troubles with mediatek based phones before in my life, so it wasn't from scratch, but some time to understand it were needed.
Phone is working again, but this rom is based on Android 10 (which I would like to keep, if it won't cause too much trouble). And I think because of that fastboot mode changed now into fastbootD mode, where old commands from adb does not recognize the device, thus no flashing recovery action etc can be taken.
Is there a workaround here? I've stumbled across some articles about installing clean Generic System Image with Android 10 on this phone (since it has been released with android greater, than number 8), but again - this requires to have custom recovery, prefeably twrp. I cannot do anything about it, because I got back to stock recovery (which now at least works, yesterday phone was so twisted at one point, that he cannot even load this recovery, but somehow managed to open system and fastboot modes normally (!!!)).
Is there a way to work it out? Older miui version, older android version, then twrp, then update via twrp? Or an alternative method, since google changed something in partitions again (not sure, if I get it right, but it might be it)? I would actually like to stay somewhere around miui (at least let it be official with ota support without too much issues), but without twrp I cannot do anything. I also do know, that there aren't any official twrp/pbrp yet (just betas). Could it also be the issue with troubles with installing it and staying it on the phone?

After to flash TWRP you have to flash the vbmeta.img and then boot to TWRP not through commands but manually with hardware buttons, don't allow device to boot to system before to boot to custom recovery otherwise this will be overwritten again.
I've done that with this vbmeta, one and only difference might be that I was trying to get into twrp by commands (however, it did not work XD). Overwritten isn't an issue in my opinion, since I do have booted to recovery after installing it yesterday and then from it choose option "reboot to system". After poweroff from system and then trying to get into recovery, then stock showed.
I'm currently trying this - https://c.mi.com/oc/thread-3312019-1-0.html
After putting this command to cmd - bcdedit /set testsigning on lancelot shows somewhere, but I cannot install it (most likely due to this issue about encrypted drivers). I'll try to overcome it now.
Yea, well, I've tried this method from link listed above, phone still enters fastbootd mode, still is not-visible from cmd started from google platform tools folder (which a subfolder to working adb). Not sure what to do now.

No, this is not the method to boot to recovery from what I pointed out, you don't have to firstly power off device but from fastboot commands you can type either fastboot or fastbootd reboot and inmediately press the volume up till the TWRP logo appears, the fastboot/d command will act same as it be the power button.
The thread explains how to install unsigned drivers in Windows, not to set it on your Redmi but is for your PC. If you succesfully get the drivers installed then you have to reboot your PC entering again in safe mode (not normal mode) and from there the commands through fastbootd are generally the same than those for fastboot.

Just to be sure you are doing fine and not missing something the adb commands work while device is on and fastboot/d commands work only in fastboot mode.
Can you attach some SS to see what you are typing and the error that brings the cmd?
Hm, you say, that I can type fastbootd into cmd and this will be recognised? It seems that it cannot be recognised in this case, when I'm trying to type fastbootd powershell says "unknown command".
Typing fastboot /d devices results in "waiting for device", despite phone being in fastbootd all the time.
I'll attach ss tomorrow - it is time to sleep for me now, gotta wake up early. Then we will also know something else, when it comes to behavior after restart pc (once again, I've done it all in one sit, it might be an issue here).
PS. if you want english errors, I'll have to use powershell - cmd is in my native language (polish). Found out, that it doesn't really matter, which program you use, powershell simply can do more, while cmd dates back 30 years or so.
Anyway - phone is still booting to miui 12 and android 10 normally, I do not set there google acc or lock yet, so don't know if there's any issue with it (most likely no).
I've also stumbled across some dude from indonesia, who had the same phone, miui 12.0.1 with android 10 and he installed successfully twrp, then magisk, but he also put some small img - misc misc.img. Could it be the issue?
I'm giving link to this material on YT -
FROM WHAT I SEE IN THE THUMBNAIL, this version of twrp is even the same (code number and english translated from chinese), that once worked here (md5 of the file might be different, though).
There's also an option to reinstall again whole adb, platform tools, drivers from official miunlock app etc, but since I do not had ANY android-related problems on this pc with previous phones, I'm not sure if this is worth our time.
And I think that if I would misspell something in cmd program would give me error instantly, instead of behaving like it was nothing - i've made tons of errors before and cmd/powershell always informed me about it in first line of their texts.

Yes, fastboot works normally while in cmd, this is intended for that, no problem to enter firstly toi Power Shell but you can switch to cmd from PS just typing cmd and all the commands from here will be for cmd, doesn´t matter at all how many old is, cmd can work inside PS keeping the same aspect.

You don't need to reinstall nothing, just from the downloaded SDK platform do all that you want to avoid misspelling path and folder directories, I mean place the files you need to use in the same directory and open terminal prompt (PS) in the same folder where adb/fastboot binaries are, pressing right mouse button and shift at same time.
I feel you are missing something simply here, not so hard to do.
The misc.img partition that you mentioned is just to restore something that went wrong in the process.
But if you are happy with this Miui ROM then great. No hurry to answer that, give your time to rest.
I also feel, that there is something simply to overcome, Only the fastbootd is new Stuff to me. However, any time I was doing something with Snap, i was long after finish by the current time (almost a month with It and 3rd day with fastbootd issue).
I don't get it. Now when I've tried to enter fastboot mode...phone entered it (fastboot, not fastbootD). Then I've installed pitch black recovery and sucessfully booted into it by restarting phone and then pressing vol up. Now I'm trying with magisk and another entry to pbrp.
Second try gave me stock recovery again. What is wrong with it XD?
something is wrong. Installing twrp resulting in nothing (stock recovery is still there), installing pitch black resulting in successfully boot into new recovery. However, this recovery does not see any zip (magisk zip, to be exact, that I've put there before it to root phone). After boot into system and then power it off to boot into recovery...phone boots into stock recovery. Should I downgrade system to miui 11 to be able to get over it? Or should I wait until miui 12.5 enters redmi 9?
My tries of installing it has been done by using cmd with admin rights, if it does make any difference.

I think you are not following the right direction, if you want consider what I pointed out; you don't have to power off device prior to boot to recovery for first time but you have to type from fastboot (no matter fastbootd) and inmediately from there boot to the custom recovery, when you succesfully booted to custom recovery then flash the recovery zip if there is one (PBR and OFR have one) and if not a zip then flash the image again to the recovery partition, also check if there is some installer apart from the image that can fix it in the ramdisk partition, at this point your issue is solved, next step is to reboot device to system normally, if you don't have any issue on that then OK but if you can´t there some steps more that you should do, but let this for last.
Ok, let's group it.
I do not think that particular matter of how do I restart phone matters here (at least, I do not believe it, that it does anything).
Option to restart to recovery from adb still not working.
Trying to find magisk.zip in main directory of internal storage still fails under pitch black recovery project.
From new stuff - I now got an error message, while opening pbrp, most likely with the issues about system being read-only (not sure though, since I do not remember it now, might look into it once more). I have the options to mount partitions, available from main menu, but since I do not used it at all before, I do not know, how to deal with it.
Also - my system boots normally, it must have overwritten recovery (or at least header of it) sometime during boot, since custom recovery is unavailable to access after first full reboot.
I'll try now to install newer version of twrp from yt that I've posted days back. I would also try with orange fox (however, i cannot find img for it, just source code, don't get it).
Is there someone, who can and will to help me?
Situation looks this - on this 12.0.4 MIUI with android 10 I'm unable to install ANY recovery (either phone do not restart to recovery after proper command from cmd or it boots into it, but after visiting system and then to recovery again it shows stock (even without any operations or updates from ota).
I cannot force to work either twrp 3.4.2b, twrp 3.5.2, pitch black recovery 3.0.0 beta.
After trying to install magisk 21.4 zip from twrp 3.4.2b phone entered bootloop, because f**k you, user, I cannot even get it to fastboot mode now (btw, fastboot now works, fastbootD is luckily a long-gone crap).
All cmd's have been run with admin rights. There are NO SUCH THING, as misspelling (cmd and adb would not execute command ,if it is misspelled, either command or filename). I've installed drivers once again and used cmd from dedicated folder with adb fastboot portable version (runned as admin, of course).
Now I'm downloading older version of rom for fastboot (miui 11.0.9) with android 10. Something has to finally work on this piece of junk.
Writting each time is success (cmd says "OKAY" nad displays time, it took to do so), downloading recovery image to start from it also works, there aren't any errors in cmd, yet phone still isn't working.
Where's the issue with it? Apart from being mediatek, which seems to somehow enormously hardened any flashing? I did not encounter anything like this with qualcomm, yet mediatek still manages to pisses me off with their really weird implementations and working (???) of their stuff.
another update from battlefield. Managed to finally get mediatek verify bypass in smart phone flashing tool, however it ended with forcing me to format anything in the phone (if not, program would not let me install anything).
Second problem is forcing me to disable verify, yet command fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img put in fastboot mode (yes, it works now) does not work, because adb says, that "--disable-verity" is not a recognised command.
SPFT cannot properly download images from phone and welcomes me with error about download exception, happening either in recovery part or in boot part. SInce I do have access to fastboot now, I can overcome it (I think).
Old miflash tool to install roms via fastboot says it cannot flash rom in locked stage (I might have lost unlocked status, but I'm not sure about it). Do you know ways to overcome it?
It is me again (inb4 use edit). Had to unlock phone again by using miphone unlocker (it went ok). Still cannot flash using SPFT, miflash started showing idiotic errors like "no file in directory" or "cannot access to directory" (it could before, I did not changed name of it). Will continue reporting of progress (or the so-called "progress").
Hello there. I had a suspicious, that this thing is known widely, but I do not know it. Got my redmi 9 nfc mid to hard-bricked (it still works, however it got errors, when I try to install there recovery or bootloader as parts of 12.0.4 miui android 10 official rom), mine fastboot mode now works so I've been thinking if there's a possibility to disable dm-verify and disabling verification, as it might be the problem here.
However, cmd in fastboot mode does not recognise that commands and therefore cannot execute them (not sure why). Flashing current state of my phone (not sure, what rom it has inside, since after reboot it quickly get me into fastboot, even when I do not press any buttons) seems to be only way to get out of this problem (locked state prevents me from installing rom via old miflash with *.tgz filetype, not to mention recovery (can't get into it) or system (can't boot, there's not even a bootloop). Smart Phone Flashing Tool reports me errors when trying to download either recovery.img or boot.img onto it (download, not write).
Phone is still vivisble in the system (heard noice, when plug it), in flashing tool (as well), script to overcome verification in mentioned flashing tool detects it successfully, so I do have something in hand as tool to solve it.
Is it the problem with the verity or deeper, connected to the bootloader being locked again? Is there a way to actually overcome it, or did I just made quite expensive piece of spare parts?
Welp, first day of owning the OnePlus Ace and I've already bricked it lmao. Need some help in trying to unbrick it.
So last night I successfully rooted my device using magisk, but after experimenting I just decided to revert back to being unrooted, since I realised I didn't actually need many of the functions root allows. Derooted using Magisk, checked that it was unrooted, then went into fastboot mode to re-lock the bootloader. Did so, restarted and I was presented with the dreaded "The current image (boot/recovery) have been destroyed" error screen and endless bootlooping. I cannot access fastboot mode or recovery mode with button combinations, tried holding Vol + and power, Vol - and power but no dice. I believe I ended up bricking because I forgot to flash the stock vbmeta.img before locking the bootloader.
I've made some progress in getting to the MediaTek Emergency Download Mode (which I believe is also either called BROM or Preloader) in order to flash a stock rom. I found out that holding down both Vol + and Vol - at boot will enable this emergency download mode for a few seconds, before going to the destroyed boot/recovery error screen. The issue is, while I've managed to get the phone detected by my computer in this state in COM5 as a 'MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM_V1632 (Android), none of the programs said to flash a stock rom will detect it. I've tried mtk_client, mtk bypass tool, SP Flash, even regular fastboot and adb tools, but none of them will detect the device, even though Windows does.
The only smart thing I did was refraining from transferring all of my files from my old phone to this one, so luckily I've got a phone to fall back on. Basically, until I find a fix, the Ace will have to stay in it's box makes me wish I never messed with root in the first place lmao. And because I imported the phone there's no warranty and no service centres for OnePlus in my country that can help.
Anyone have any ideas for how I can get the phone detected in these applications? Is it an issue of the SoC not being supported yet by these programs because it's relatively new? Are there any alternate ways to get to the fastboot menu? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Update: If someone would be able to extract a scatter file from their own OnePlus Ace too, I think that may help me
Sorry that you've ran into this, but thanks for confirming bootloader can be unlocked, and root is possible.
Getting the 10R over the Realme GT 2 (sad situation of bootloader unlock not possible). Hope you get an extract soon
Made some progress!
Got my hands on the Ace's firmware files, which included the scatter file. Redownloaded the newest 6.2 version of SP Flash Tool and loaded the scatter and auth files successfully. Clicked download, connected USB to phone while holding Vol + and Vol - and finally! Sp Flash Tool connected to the phone! However, now I've run into another problem: SP Flash Tool will show a red progress bar at the bottom saying 'Download DA', it will reach 100% quickly then throw me a very vague error simply saying 'error_msg'. And that's it. Tried unchecking different boxes, reinstalled drivers but it will always throw back this error.
Any ideas to figure out what the error is and fix it would be amazing
hello, im here to show support. My ace also bricked because i want to change from color os to oxygen. I used fastboot enhanced, might have missed a step and bricked. Mine also import, but the shop i bought offers 1 year warranty. Shop says have to wait for msm download tools to reflash or i have to pay $60 to send back to China because my own fault. Man, it is going to be a long wait for msm tools. haha

maybe this is because of the new chip and there is no support for bypassing it.I thought the method would work.also a tip-edit the scatter file, namely partition_name: super or system,changing the value is_download: false to is_download: true.hopefully help
And thank you for sharing the files
I too am stuck with Brick.
Is there a Bypass for the Demesity 8100 being developed?
This device is mostly Oppo, but there is no Oppo flash Tool?
There is very little information available.

Unfortunately not yet, the most promising option will be to wait for an MTK Auth Bypass utility to be developed for the Dimensity 8100 chipset. There might be active development on this front, so hopefully it will come soon.
The other option would be to find someone to do a remote flash, someone who has official Oppo/OnePlus flashing software and an account to use it. I believe I've found the official firmware to flash the phone in this state, however you need credentials to log in to it and access it. I think it will also specifically have to be Chinese credentials, as India login details may not allow you to flash a OnePlus Ace model. I tried to get someone over at (<Moderator Edit>: unallowed site name removed) to do a remote flash, and he couldn't because he had India credentials, but not Chinese credentials

Unfortunately not yet, the most promising option will be to wait for an MTK Auth Bypass utility to be developed for the Dimensity 8100 chipset. There might be active development on this front, so hopefully it will come soon.
The other option would be to find someone to do a remote flash, someone who has official Oppo/OnePlus flashing software and an account to use it. I believe I've found the official firmware to flash the phone in this state, however you need credentials to log in to it and access it. I think it will also specifically have to be Chinese credentials, as India login details may not allow you to flash a OnePlus Ace model.

Oh. I had OnePlus 7 previously, there were few ways to flash stock firmware. The common one was MSM Tool, other one was Fastboot enhance.
But few times I flashed stock firmware manually like payload dump payload.bin and flash partitions manually from fastboot. Maybe this could work.

I seem to have made fastboot inaccessible on my device, so I've been unable to use Fastboot enhance or utilise any ways to flash using fastboot
Damn!! I hope you find some way to fix your device. Good luck.

Hello. after unlocking the bootloader I have the message "Orange State. OS Not Being Verified Or Custom OS. Dismiss After 5 Seconds." but the system booted up. After uploading boot.img, the phone got stuck in bootloop. Unfortunately, the guide above did not help.

Are you still able to boot to Fastboot?

Yes. I can flash files in cmd and FastbootEnhance but in practice it looks like they were not saved.

So you are not able to boot right?
If not, you can try flashing the partitions manually from fastboot. (If you are willing to try I can provide the steps. This works for other OnePlus devices.)
I need help, I did some research but I couldn't find a solution to my problem.
I know that others have a problem with rebooting to recovery when unlocking, but my problem is different. My phone is just stuck in a loop into recovery mode and won't boot normally even in safemode.
I haven't tried wiping the data yet because I want to save my files. Do you have a solution for this?
I turned on USB debugging before this bootloop happened.

How exactly did you set up your custom recovery, and when exactly did it stop working? (has the recovery ever worked normally for you?)

I didn't do anything, I just charged my phone while it was turned off. Then I turned on the phone and the same thing happened as with others where when I unlocked it from the lock screen, the phone restarted and that's what happened.
Edit:
I saw this in another thread, we have the same problem.

Hello to everyone,
So basically i read all the 10 pages of this thread and I have not found someone that have the same problem as me. I have the “bootloop” but the thing is that my phone is not even turning on. It is just booting and going back to the recovery menu. So I choose the reboot option but still coming back to the menu. I have already turned on the debug usb option because I used to be using it before my phone dies. I have a Xiaomi MI10 Lite 5G. I also tried the MiAssisstant but no succes because device not detected.
If someone have a solution without wiping all my precious data pls ?

If you have your phone to automatically install updates, it might have done exactly that, and it borked. i.e. incomplete installation. There is no recovery partition on the spes so the boot image is potentially whacked. Try reflashing boot and dtmo and vbmeta images in Fastboot from your current ROM. That should get you back to where you were.

Sorry, I'm not really knowledgeable about this. Can you guide me or give me a link on how to do it? I don't have any experience in flashing through fastboot but earlier, I tried using ADB to check if my device is being recognized and I think it was recognized.
And also, I don't know which firmware to download or what is the current version of my phone because I only know the basic details of my device like this is Redmi Note 11 6/128 4G, I think this is the global version, and by the way, I'm from the Philippines.

Enter fastboot, check your phone is unlocked.
fastboot getvar unlocked (response will be unlocked: yes)
If you are global, then get the fastboot version from here: https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/spes/stable/V13.0.12.0.SGCMIXM/
This one is mine. Be careful you get the non-4g-in-the-name ROM for your 4g phone if yours is like mine:
Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 - Full phone specifications
www.gsmarena.com
Beware of the other one that has a Mediatek processor and has 4G in the name and is NOT my phone type: https://www.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_redmi_note_11_4g-11241.php
If this one fails to get you booted at the end, drop back a version and try that one. Check your phone box to see what region version phone you bought.
Unpack it to a folder and get the images for boot, dtbo and vbmeta. Put these files into your adb/platorm-tools directory in Windows. (you will need the boot and vbmeta images later if you choose to install Magisk) Since you ran adb already, then you must already have adb installed.
Open command prompt as root, change to that platform-tools directory.
fastboot devices (to ensure Windows sees you)
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
Reboot system.
If this gets you booted, run Device Info HW app to see what version is actually installed, and look under About Phone as well.
EDIT: I corrected the 3 command lines above.

Sorry for the delayed reply.
It seems that my bootloader is still locked, so I cannot flash it using fastboot. Is that correct?
Is there a way to flash my device without losing my files? I really need to get my files

Then ignore my steps, since they won't work on a locked bootloader. I will defer to others who have clues regarding a locked bootloader and a down system.
You COULD try to unlock it, but that would definitely wipe all your data:
"Unlocking the bootloader will wipe all data"
Get the unlock tool and instructions here, if you so choose anyway:
Apply for permissions to unlock Mi devices
en.miui.com
NOTE: that gives you unlock version 6.5.224.28 but it might/should prompt you after install to install the updated version since mine is 6.5.406.31 from April of 2022. When you run it, it makes you wait a week.
NOTE 2: It does state this warning, however:
"First, confirm that your device can be unlocked
Your device functions normally and not in a bricked, soft-bricked, bootloop state."
