WARNING!
There is no official / stable release neither for twrp nor lineageos, that being said on my device the A33 5G SM-A336B-DSN *everything* works so far.
I do not take any responsibility for any damage that might happen to your device, same goes for the developers regarding unofficial twrp and lineageos releases.

This Guide will provide instructions how to install TWRP and LineageOS, the Kernel will not be modified.
• After unboxing, complete the initial setup of the Phone
• In Phone Settings press 7 times on "Build Number" to enable Developer Options
• In Developer Options enable OEM Unlock and USB Debugging
• Power Off the Phone
• Boot the Phone in OEM Unlocking Mode, for that you must:
• Hold volume up and volume down while the Phone is powered-off
• While holding the buttons connect the Phone to the PC via USB Cable
• Keep holding the buttons untill Phone is booted to OEM Unlocking Mode
• In OEM Unlocking Mode hold volume up for few seconds - This will unlock OEM and ERASE all Data
• After Erase, Complete again the initial setup and enable Developer Options aswell as USB Debugging
• Download TWRP and vbmeta_disabled_r on the PC (Credits go to Zillion for TWRP and afaneh92 for vbmeta_disabled_r)
• Boot phone in OEM Unlocking Mode and press vol-up to continue to Download Mode
• On the PC download Odin and Samsung USB Driver
• Install USB Drivers and connect the Phone to PC via USB Cable, then start Odin
• In Odin klick on AP and select a33x_experimental_twrp-tar
• In Odin klick on USERDATA and select vbmeta_disabled_r-tar
• Klick start to flash TWRP on the A33 Phone
• Download LineageOS GSI 20.0 Light Version on the PC (Credits go to Andy Yan)
• Extract the downloaded LineageOS GSI to get the .img
• Copy the "LineageOS_GSI.img" on any SD Card or USB Drive
• Insert SD Card to Phone or connect Phone to USB using USB Adapter
• Boot Phone in Recovery Mode (TWRP)
• In TWRP select INSTALL then press SELECT STORAGE, select SD Card or USB
• Choose INSTALL IMAGE and flash "LineageOS_GSI.img" to System
Note: When i first flashed Lineage, instead of booting to system the phone kept booting to recovery (twrp), i can't tell you why but it did not work.
Same happened with Andy's 19.1 Lineage GSI's.
I ended up re-flashing LineageOS GSI 20.0 Light Version again, and it suddenly worked, the phone booted to system (lineage).
If you have similar issues i suggest keep trying untill it works, like it did for me.
Many thanks to V0latyle for helping me getting twrp and lineageos running on the A33

I don't know the differences between A336B and A336M
Just try it i would say. Probably will work, if not simply flash stock firmware.
• Update - For anyone following this guide, you can probably replace the TWRP listed in the original post with this one:

Si, es compatible.
How did you install gapps? if I try to flash it will complain there is insufficient space. Do I have to take the lineageOS containing gapps already or is there a way to flash it without the space error ?

Honestamente no te lo recomiendo si manejas aplicaciones de bancos, tuve muchos problemas, ni con Magisk pude lograr que dichas aplicaciones no detectaran el teléfono como rooteado y potencialmente peligroso.
Tuve que regresar a Samsung One UI.

Are you sure? Have you tested things like USB tethering, MMS, SMS, calling etc.? Many people just simply don't bother to test these & then say "everything works"; had a problem like that on my previous phone where I couldn't send or receive MMS despite the ROM being considered "stable"

WIFI thethering at 5 Ghz is broken and no NR band, and I think game are not running at 90hz. I tried to contact Andy who just ignored my message so I guess the phone is too "young" for custom rom yet
My phone is stuck in the lineageOS bootscreen, i cannot access either TWRP or OEM download mode as the button combinations do not work, can anyone help me on how may i be able to fix that issue? I used TWRP from this post because the link on this one is down
i once got stuck on the charging animation and i just held both the side buttons and the power button, it phone should then boot off

I don't use a simcard so i haven't tested mms/sms, anways sms is a very insecure way of communication.
For chatting i would use one of these, Briar, Element, Session.
Neither have i tested usb tethering.
The only "bug" i experience is, when charging the phone while it is powered-off, it does not charge the battery, and the screen goes on showing that it's charging but it does not show the percentage...
I'm forced to power-on the phone everytime i want to charge it, otherwise charging doesn't work, it's annoying but i'm afraid there's nothing i can do.
So that's just my personal opinion, i preffer a "relatively stable" operatingsystem which is privacy oriented rather than a fully functional privacy invasive operatingsystem.

Hello, i had the same issue.
As DiegoRuiz said, you should be able to poweroff the phone by holding all buttons at the same time.
Then when powered off, immediately hold the buttons to boot into downloadmode and try reflashing the os again.
The process seems somewhat broken, but as i said in the original post i managed to install lineage after all.

Can I downgrade my P10 VTR-L09 from 9.1.0.262

No, you cannot
Bootloader has changed since EMUI 8, Security Patch 06/2018, trying to roll-back to the old Bootloader from a firmware with the new Bootloader causes a serious brick
(although, dload will probably just fail with no result and no harm - depending on which package you take, you need a stronger/root method to enforce 'rollback' and therfore to brick)
Anyway, do not even try - there were numerous people who tried with various Huawei phones and ended up with fully bricked devices (they could be repaired only by Testpoints methods, and only by Testpoints method you can rollback over the Bootloader change divide)

Sine I can't go back to Nougat is it possible to roll back to EMUI 8.0? Via firmware flasher or something?
I tried with hisuite but it says I have the latest OS and there is no roll back option.

In HiSuite, there must be option for Other firmware or so, to go backwards.
Maybe it depends on info from oeminfo and shown only for users who regularly updated byOTA.
Just tried my HiSuite, to roll-back:
click to Update,
switch to Other version / Earlier versions,
and accept Restore
Beware:
>> Bootloader has changed since EMUI 8, Security Patch 06/2018, trying to roll-back to the old Bootloader from a firmware with the new Bootloader causes a serious brick
Which means, you cannot rollback to the old Bootloader (even with Oreo), to be able to seek for BL code the old and cheap way through DC Unlocker (if that was your agenda for rolling back)

On latest version I don't have rollback option, but I used to have it on previous builds.. I will try to download previous build and try to rollback.
So it's safe to downgrade from 9.1 to 9.0 and to latest 8.0? EMUI ofc
Bricked it.. Black screen no signs of life I can only hear windows connection sounds USB
Please help. Was trying to downgrade from 9.0 to 8.0

Again, make sure you don't go back to Sec Patch Jun 2018 or earlier.
Install Firmware Finder on the phone or PC (or go by browser to pro-teammt.ru) find the given version (model, cust and version must match), open ChangeLog and read which Sec Patch it includes (you must double-check yourself, it depends on your model/cust and which build number will HiSuite offer to you for going back)
And before you go, make sure you have stock Recovery (not eg TWRP), also unroot if it was rooted. No hack modifications that included flashing

Its bricked now. I tried to downgrade from 9.0.1.190 to EMUI 8 latest version. Now phone has black screen, I cant seem to turn it on I tried all key combinations still no luck. But my PC recognizes my phone as HI386 something. In Multi-Tool says phone is still on 9.0.1.190 and it hasnt reverted back to EMUI 8. So I think there is a chance probably, I dont have unlocked bootloader nor enabled OEM unlock.
Please I need help getting it back to life. fastboot commands work fine eg. reboot etc..

You don't have BL code - or just Bootloader and OEM/FRP were not unlocked?
Have you tried to boot to eRecovery (switch off, connect to charger, press and keep pressing Vol+, boot),
does it offer to (re)install latest firmware and recovery
With the locked BL and/or FRP, you could only try to fix with DLOAD and a proper firmware for your phone and DLOAD,
try the following queries from Fastboot (switch off, connect to PC, press and keep pressing Vol-, boot):
Code:
fastboot devices
PAUSE
fastboot oem get-bootinfo
PAUSE
fastboot oem get-product-model
PAUSE
fastboot oem get-build-number
PAUSE
fastboot oem oeminforead-SYSTEM_VERSION
PAUSE
fastboot getvar vendorcountry
Edit: You can check the following post and ask the poster who also had a brick with P10 and EMUI 9, and how he repaired: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p1...enkirin-aosp-collection-t3828797/post80996581

Per Fastboot, Bootloader is locked - I guess, you never had BL unlocked?
It shows two versions for VTR-L09 C432, first 9.0.1.190, then 9.0.1.185 - do you remember, did you have 9.0.1.190 and were you downgrading by HiSuite to 9.0.1.185?
Or, were you downgrading by HiSuite from 9.1.0.262 to 9.0.1.190
Try from androidhost.ru, they don't have 190 for c432, but they have 185:
https://androidhost.ru/2AQn
As for their other firmwares (other Huawei phones) that should be the official Huawei Service Repair package
You need to download, unzip, unarj or whatever compression/archiving you find - until you find two folders:
Docs
Software
In Docs folder there must be an installation guide in English, describing (standard, forced) DLOAD procedure
In Software folder, there must be one or more update*.zip files.
You must not unzip those files.
If some of them have c636 or L29 or so in the name, not matching your L09 c432, then exclude such file(s)
Copy these update*.zip files (zipped, with original names) to /DLOAD folder on SD card (not Internal memory) - pull the SD card out, use another phone or card reader to connect to PC and for copying
Read the Installation guide from Software folder to double-check about DLOAD details!
Switch the phone off, put SD card, have it charged at least 50%, press and keep pressing Vol+ and Vol- simultaneously, then boot by Pow
It should start DLOAD installation for 9.0.1.185
If it asks you at the end for Factory Reset (from Recovery), better take it (or take it later)

Thanks again for replying.
I downgraded from 9.1.0.262 to 9.0.1.180. it booted fine i used the phone normally. Then I decided to downgrade it to EMUI 8 latest version via firmware finder, since it was complete phone wont boot, respond, nothing. When charging the phone gets pretty warm. So to conclude it its bricked on 9.0.1.190..
Still no luck..
I cannot downgrade from 9 to 8 anymore. This opion is not displayed in HiSuite, did they kill this option? Can someone confirm?
Is there any other option to downgrade from 9.0.1.185 to 8?
Thanks

First of, sorry for i don't mean to hijack this thread.
Now here is my question, if for example I was able to unlock my P10 (android ver.7.0) bootloader using DC-unlocker then relock it will I be able to use the unlock code again if my P10 is already in android 9 Pie version?
Thanks!

Bootloader code is bound to the Serial Number of your device, you can reuse it for unlocking/relocking as many times you want, no matter did you upgrade/downgrade, etc

[QUOTE = "zgfg, publicación: 81031851, miembro: 7786725"]
Por Fastboot, Bootloader está bloqueado, supongo, ¿nunca desbloqueaste BL?
Muestra dos versiones para VTR-L09 C432, primero 9.0.1.190, luego 9.0.1.185 - ¿recuerdas, tenías 9.0.1.190 y estabas bajando por HiSuite a 9.0.1.185?
O, ¿estaba cambiando HiSuite de 9.1.0.262 a 9.0.1.190?
Pruebe desde androidhost.ru, no tienen 190 para c432, pero tienen 185:
https://androidhost.ru/2AQn
En cuanto a sus otros firmwares (otros teléfonos Huawei), ese debería ser el paquete oficial de reparación de servicios de Huawei.
Necesita descargar, descomprimir, unarj o cualquier compresión / archivo que encuentre, hasta que encuentre dos carpetas:
Docs
Software
En la carpeta Docs debe haber una guía de instalación en inglés, que describa el procedimiento de DESCARGA (estándar, forzado)
En la carpeta Software, debe haber uno o más archivos * .zip de actualización.
No debe descomprimir esos archivos.
Si algunos de ellos tienen c636 o L29 más o menos en el nombre, y no coinciden con su L09 c432, excluya dichos archivos.
Copie estos archivos * .zip de actualización (comprimidos, con los nombres originales) a la carpeta / DLOAD en la tarjeta SD (no en la memoria interna); extraiga la tarjeta SD, use otro teléfono o lector de tarjetas para conectarse a la PC y para copiar
¡Lea la guía de instalación de la carpeta Software para verificar los detalles de DESCARGA!
Apague el teléfono, coloque la tarjeta SD, cargue al menos al 50%, presione y mantenga presionado Vol + y Vol- simultáneamente, luego arranque con Pow
Debería iniciar la instalación DLOAD para 9.0.1.185
Si al final te pide el restablecimiento de fábrica (desde la recuperación), mejor tómalo (o tómalo más tarde)

I have a similar case, I tried to go down from 9 to 8 but I got an absolute black screen (It does not load, it does not turn on, not erecovery, not fastboot), only when connecting it to the PC, fastboot mode comes out due to the sound of the pc and in fastboot devices it appears but nothing more than there.
I have tried the method you mentioned but without any success, the phone is still dead. My last option is to unlock the bootloader but I don't know if it will be a good idea. I would appreciate your help.
I got a sprint v40, modded it to work with all carriers
I got TWRP installed, got Lineage OS working but I decided that I also wanted to try to get my other slot all modded up so I could also try out DotOS side by side.
After that stuff wasn't working correctly, and now I can't boot into Lineage OS or download mode. (If I let it try to boot normally it says "LGE Crash Handler : FIQ: NOC Error! on a black screen| and at the end says "Enter Sahara Mode")
I've tried stock pie and v35 boot loaders. TWRP is weird on pie boot loader, seems to work fine on v35(bootloader is still unlocked)
If I try to flash either OS it doesn't work and doesn't get installed to phone
I'm lost, and very confused. Does anyone have any tips? I'll take anything.
(I do have LGUP, but can't get it to work. I do have QFIL and adb+fastboot)
(I did nuke LAF's but did restore them thanks to something I found by a fellow user here trying to help someone else and posting LAF's to google drive)
Update, I'm still getting an LGE Crash Handler Error, but I have been able to get it to say "LGE Crash Handler : Kernel Crash!"
I'm hoping that is a step in the right direction
I don't want to see my stupidity dump nearly $200 down the drain.
If someone is in a similar position, get it into download mode. Turn the device off, hold volume up and plug it into your computer. It got my phone to actually go into download mode and save it from death. Finally. Only took two days of messing with to do.
Nice save. That's why keeping download mode is so important. As long as we have download mode, the phone can be brought back to life.
Beware nuking laf. Just don't, unless you really know what you are doing.
[NG]Owner
I nuked it but saw that you uploaded your LAF files, I think I saved mine before hand but didn't label them.So thank you for saving me on that one
I can't get into download mode though, any tips?
Still on 9.0 and the stock img

Can anyone help with red warning "g.co/ABHg.co/ABH"?
I already googling about it but there are only exist solution to red warning "g.co/ABH".
I've tried the solution but no succeed.
BTW I cannot enter the recovery mode.
Every time I've tried to enter recovery mode, it just restarted.
And I have no idea if the phone has unlocked bootloader nor TWRP installed.
Does anyone has the same trouble?

I haven't had a red warning problem yet, but I've had fastboot stuck and tried the tricks in this post and I succeeded and I hope you too
Hello i have flash TWRP on my Redmi 9
and on my computer i have typed this command
"fastboot reboot fastboot"
for acces to the fastbootd mode
and now i have
REDMI
Powered By Android
black screen
and
Redmi
Powered By Android
and this loop
my english is very bad
bye
I have this problem too!!! could you fix it? it happened to me when I did this too
try to hard reset
I had the same problem after trying to flash the TWRP custom recovery on my Redmi 9 (lancelot).
In case that someone still needs to know, following was my solution:
I needed to flash back the stock firmware on my device with SP Flashtool. For that you of course need to download the firmware and take the scatter file of it. Then grab a custom Download Agent File and an authentication file from the web.
Also you need the MTK_bypass utility with the right payloads from the github website (Redmi 9 is MT6768, just take the master collection payload, it worked for me). You need that tool to disable the DAA und SLA protection on your Redmi 9. (Except you have access to an authorized Mi account of course, then you can just flash it with Mi Flash tool, but usually, one doesn't have that.) Follow the instruction on the web, there are detailed ways how to install the right drivers and run the bypass utility correctly.
In my case I had to format my device with the automatic flashing in SP Flashtool before the flashing worked, but that was it - my Redmi 9 is working fine again.
thank you for the input as it really cleared my head after i took a break at trying to get this thing out of a bootloop.
this does work, using sp flash tool but the device will auto detect through usb and you've gotta have the scatter file and firmware for the device. after using the brom utility don't restart the phone, you will reverse the process.

I had the same issue, I was not able to enter neither recovery mode nor fastboot mode. But you are able to enter EDL mode, the Emergency Download Mode - in my case at least. From there I was able to unbrick the phone. I was able to enter EDL mode without opening the phone and using test points. Turning the phone on and connecting it to the computer in the same second as the screen goes on let me enter for some seconds, it was enough to let me run the tool to bypass the DAA and SLA protection of the device. Then I was able to flash back the stock firmware with SP-Flashtool. In my case I needed to format the device before the flashing worked, but then it booted back up alive.
Just be aware you probably need to install the proper drivers first to bypass DAA and SLA protection with LibUSB.
I have the same problem, help
I already tried all the methods in this post, my phone cannot access fastboot or recovery mode, and when I connect it via usb it starts immediately

MIFLASHPRO PROCEDURE
The MiFlashPro procedure is easier (and the easiest to recover your hard-bricked device), as you do not require the installation of any other external program (like python used in MTK Client for example (expect, of course, the drivers)
MTK Client is a more complicated installation as it requires the installation of Python and Git, which can be harder to use commands for people that don't or never used Python and Git, but gives you access to lock and unlock your bootloader with no 168 HOURS wait
In general, newer MTK chips are really easy to unbrick, even from a hard-brick, as it does not requires to open your phone and test-point it (especially this forum MTK 6833), compared to Snapdragon chips, which is the opposite and even costs 25€ to have a "Authorized Mi EDL Account". Keeping that out of the way, lets get to it
FIRST OF ALLInstall the MTK Preload/BROM VCOM drivers for your computer to recognise your phone in BROM state and follow the instructions given in the installation. Attached at the end of the thread
And download any MIUI ROM version from any trusted website (my favorite is mifirm.net, it downloads faster)
INSTALL MIFLASHPRO Attached at the end of the threadThere's two different Mi Flash(es). Mi Flash and Mi Flash Pro.
Mi Flash is only used to flash MIUI in your device, nothing special, probably everyone knows about it.
Then theres Mi Flash Pro (MFP for short). It's an All-In-One (AIO) tool, as shown below.

}
We got the some tabs, but let's focus on the "Recovery" and "SP Flash" tabs, as we do not need the other ones.
Recovery - Recovery flashing. If your device is only booting to Recovery (which can be possible, since someone here has got a case that couldn't boot to fastboot neither system, only to recovery), by writing both your device IMEI's on the spaces, then clicking "Refurbish" leads to a more advanced factory reset than just wiping your data normally. This can get you out of recovery and go back to MIUI however. If it's not your problem, then follow on.
SP Flash - The famous SP Tool. SP Tool is a easy tool to use, may be confusing at first, but then first time a charm and you can get used to it, easily, or after some times. SP Tool is famous for recovering many MTK devices from hard bricks, and thats what we will use to recover your device.
OPEN SP FLASH UP
Here you are, greeted by a nice interface. There's nothing, but I will explain you to it.
There's 3 blank spaces, called Download-agent (DA for short), Scatter-loading file & Authentication file.
DA is to have access to the devices internal storage to be able to do the flashing;
Scatter-loading shows you the mapping of the partitions it will flash on the MTK;
Authentication is just the MTK protection for newer mtk devices that you need to be able to flash (*its also used to successfully flash, but you still need to bypass it somehow, as you require a Mi Account able to do BROM flashing, see below as you follow the thread)
Now, fill the blanks up:
To find the DA, it is always in the MiFlashPro installation location, so ...\MiFlashPro\. Access that folder, open up "\SP_Flash_Tool_V5" folder, and you will find a file named "MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin", use it as the DA.
To find the authentication file, its located in the same path of the DA, so ...\MiFlashPro\SP_Flash_Tool_V5\, and you will find a file named "auth_sv5.auth", use it as the authentication file.
Finally, to find the scatter-loading file, it is in the ROM folder you extracted, so ...\camellian_xx_xxxx_images_VXX.X.X.X.xxxxx_XXXXXXXX.XXXX.XX_XX.X_xxxxxl\ (the X's represent your MIUI version you downloaded). The scatter-loading file is always located in the folder "images", so \camellian...\images\, and you will find a text file named "MT6833_Android_scatter.txt", use it as the scatter-loading file.
Done?
Don't flash it yet, as we need to fix a issue with "combo_partisize_check".
Open up the scatter-loading file with Notepad or any text editor, so the text file named "MT6833_Android_scatter.txt".
Now, use the locate function to locate the following:
combo_partsize_check: true
After finding the first one, replace the "true" to "false", and the following one, and so on, till every line of them is set to "false" and isn't able to locate any set as "true".
We are done and finished setting up SP Tool!*Now, we need to bypass the Authentication of our device. Why? Just as the Snapdragon chips, Xiaomi has also implemented a security layer where you need to log in with a "Authorized Mi Flashing Account", which costs money (generally only on Snapdragon devices, I am not sure if we can find any paying service for it), which is really easy to bypass due to BROM.
Download the file "mtkauthbypass.zip" attached in the thread below.
Extract it, open it up, and it looks like this:
Now, press the "Disable Auth" button, you will have 60 seconds to get ready, get your hands on the phone and press at the same time the VOL+, VOL- & POWER button, till you see prompt appearing in the blank space. Should be similiar as this:
(thanks to chopwell20 for image)
After that, immediately open up SP Tool, and press "Download" as fast as possible.
Let it flash, from 5 to 15 minutes.
After it finishes, a blue window with a checkmark appears, disconnect your phone, and just press down the POWER button to boot it up.
And thats it! You have recovered your phone!If you have any issues or it didn't work out, please reply so someone can help you out
(Simplified image to understand better without explanation)
ISSUESCONNECTIONS ISSUE is completely normal!
It is when you try to connect your phone in BROM mode to your computer, but it always shows the error symbol over it.
From what it seems, this should be a issue from the phone and not your computer or the drivers itself
It doesn't mean that it makes you unable to unbrick it, but a lot of patience, as with this issue you will require to keep trying over and over again to bypass it.
So, if you can't bypass the Auth, this is probably it. Just keep trying and trying over again till you get it. There's (probably) no workaround rather than having patience to do it
(This also happens to me every time, so I consider it normal, and with some users such as bg0169 having this same issue, I just considered this was important to address it out, but if you think its not this issue, then reply, better safe than sorry)
I made this thread due to some users bricking their devices, and for every new user that hard-bricks their device to hopefully make this to help them
Amazing guide.
Thanks. and missing screenshot where Authbypass gives you prompt.
SP Flash Tool gives error on "gz.img, rescue.img and cust.img" because verified boot is enabled.

yes, it is bypassable.
you just go to the mapping, and disable the checks on those partitions. it will still boot normally, afterwards, if you want (which is not necessary), you can reflash your phone via fastboot and miflash for those partitions to be flashed correctly

Thanks for your reply.
Unfortunately, my phone won't boot when i exclude those images. No vibration, no black screen and no fastboot/recovery.
The another bypass method which requires using readback also doesn't work. I think it's probably because mt6833 is a newer chipset compared to the ones used in tutorials.
Any other advices please? I really don't want to pay money just to use MIUI again.

Could you give me more details about the another bypass? I dont understand what do you mean.
If that did not work, then I suppose your bootloader is locked
Please download the engineering ROM > https://mifirm.net/model/camellian.ttt#files;
and flash it via SP Tool like you did to MIUI, then boot to fastboot and flash an EEA image > https://mifirm.net/model/camellian.ttt#eea (if i am correct, EEA images are allowed to be flashed even with locked bootloader.)
If you do get the same verified boot error, disable those partitions to flash once again
If these methods didnt work, you need to install MTK Client to unlock your bootloader and try to reflash via fastboot or SP Tool

My father took my phone and paid to repair it. Well, i guess thats a way to fix things...
Anyway, the other method i was talking about was the one using PGPT image and using Hex editor blah blah blah.
By the way, now my phone works but it seems NVRAM was deleted. My IMEI doesn't show up. Can i recover it without using temporary methods?

I dont know how to recover IMEIs since I always back my NVRAM and write it via MTK Client.
You can try this guide:
Thread '[QUICK GUIDE][HOW TO] Unbrick Camellia/Camellian and restore IMEI' https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/quick-guide-how-to-unbrick-camellia-camellian-and-restore-imei.4502077/
Alternatively, which I am not sure, try looking up a IMEI writer program somewhere in the web for MTK

Did you use the right firmware? If so, what version (MIUI version (Indonesia/EEA/MI, etc.), Android version and Codename)? If you used the latest one (MIUI 14 Android 13) please try MIUI 13 Android 12 or lower
Try this:

Esto no debería pasar.
¿Eres capaz de reiniciar en fastboot o recovery?
¿Obtuviste algún error de arranque verificado (verified boot)?

I use MIUI 12 global version, and can't access fastboot or recovery mode, it didn't give me any error either, and I think I use the correct firmware version.

I get the same error, anybody know how to fix?
And there is a "MediaTek Preloader USB VCOM" displayed in the Windows Device Manager.

SP Flash Tool gives error on "gz.img, rescue.img and cust.img" because verified boot is enabled.
Is it possible to bypass it? or how do i disable verified boot without fastboot access? is my device completely dead?

It doesn't work, I think the problem is that the boot mode is bootloader instead of bootrom.

if your phone is displaying the 3 boot modes in the edge, then yes you are in bootloader*
you should restart to any mode, then right as it reboots you shall boot into BROM immediately and redo the same process
I think that when I press the volume up (+), volume down (-), and power buttons on my phone simultaneously, it doesn't seem to recognize any device. However, when I only press the volume up (+) and volume down (-) buttons, it recognizes a MTK Preloader USB VCOM port, and during the process, it seems to attempt to connect twice when "Disable Auth" is enabled. In addition, the BootMode displays as BootLoader
