Forgot how it got to this point, i think i flashed wrong boot.img or something, but my device just reboots constantly on the redmi sign. Tried following the guides on here but i got lost at some point. I've installed the driver filter and done the mtk bypass thing, but I'm confused on where i should go from here?
first of all, install MTK preloader/brom vcom drivers for your PC be able to detect your phone in BROM mode (attached below)
install MiFlashPro, you will need it to fill the Download-Agent in sp tool so you can write the boot images to recover your phone.
then, use the miui ROM that you used before bricking it, or download it from any website (my favorite is mifirm.net, it downloads faster)
now open sp tool from MiFlashPro.
now you will need to fill out 3 spaces:
download-agent (DA for short), scatter-loading file & authentication file.
DA is to have access to the devices internal storage, scatter-loading shows you the mapping of the partitions it will flash on the mtk & authentication is just 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)
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.
Now, you need to edit the "MT6833_Android_scatter.txt", or else when you use to flash you will get this error:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Open it (located at your MIUI ROM folder at \images), then use the locate tool to find "combo_partsize_check: true". You will probably find a few lines set as true, just replace every one with false (if it doesnt find it, just put "combo_partsize_check", but you will waste more time finding those that are set to true)
Alright, we finished our sp tool settings. now we have to bypass MTK Auth protection.
(Dont close sp tool yet!)
Ive annexed the tool below (mtkauthbypass.zip), download it and extract it.
It looks like this:
After you are ready, press the "Disable Auth" button, get your hands on the phone and press at the same time the VOL+, VOL- & POWER button, till you see prompts appearing in the blank (i dont have a screenshot to show how it looks like, sorry)
after it bypasses, go to sp tool and click download immediately, then your device should come to life.
if it didnt work, i recommend selecting every mapping excluding your data, or do a full reflash if you wish or as last resort

Hello,
So my phone was stuck in bootloop and thus, I created a backup in my SD card. The files are shown as 13 files of 2GB size each with an extension ".backup" Anyone has any idea on how to combine these files and access the data inside on PC. The data is very important. Thank you!

Crosspost from https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/moto-e4-plus-restart-loop.4241427/
I've had numerous Moto devices and have never seen any backup options in stock recovery., so I haven't any idea what format these are using.
readback stock recovery from SP Flash Tool and flash TWRP. also readback metadata partition (crypto footer). do not unlock bootloader because encryption is bonded to bootloader state. if you are lucky TWRP will work on locked bootloader. TWRP will decrypt your data so you can backup everything

How to do this? USB debugging and OEM are not ON in my phone. I saw some tutorial on YouTube, but it requires USB debugging.
Can't I use those userdata_*****.backup files?
usb-debugging is another option to access your data (can be enabled in boot.img)
SP Flash Tool is for preloader mode, no usb-debugging required
https://android.stackexchange.com/q/203283
wait, you did factory reset already? in that case crypto footer is reset too. backup is encrypted and therefore useless unless crypto-footer is restored.
you said you restored backup, are you sure? does the phone boot into lock screen like before and is pattern still the same?

Yes, the password is still the same. It's like the phone is again in the same condition with the same issue of boot loop.
I saw some tutorial on SP flash tool and what I did was:
1. Downloaded the SP flash tool
2. Downloaded TWRP recovery specific to my phone
3. Opened flash tool, went to download, clicked on scatter loading, selected the file and then clicked on download and connected my switched off device to the PC via USB
But, nothing happened after that.
My phone started charging, but nothing else happened.
I thought drivers weren't installed, so I went Driver Autoinstaller folders (there were 2 of them) and clicked on Driver Install, but it showed me this
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then I clicked on finish and it showed this
When I went to the second folder, it showed me this
Is it because of this, that my device is not detected by this flash tool, and if yes, what can I do?
Yes it's driver issue. Disable driver signature enforcement and reboot. open device manager, connect phone and immediately select yellow triangle. install inf manually with let me pick option
you should not flash TWRP without a backup of stock recovery. Do a readback first. Also it is important the scatter file is matching your current partition layout. therefore you should analyze the result. if you are able to extract ramdisk with AIK then you have successfully dumped stock recovery (and can proceed with next step flashing twrp)

Understood before the readback thing. What is readback? I saw the tab in flash tools, but didn't get what it was? Can you please tell how to do that? (sorry for irritating, as I said I am a noob )
And how to analyse the result part? I didn't get the "extract ramdisk with osmosis AIK"
Is there any tutorial video that you know of, if yes, kindly send the link please coz I don't understand these terms.
And thanks a ton for this!!!
on readback tab delete all entries. add one entry for EMMC_USER. give meaningful file name recovery.img. enter length and start address in hex (refer to scatter file). start readback and connect phone.
Disable Antivirus program and download AIK. copy recovery.img into AIK directory and execute unpackimg.bat. enable Antivirus when done

So, what length and start address am I supposed to enter in hex?

Yes, I did that, after that only it shows this.
I am about to cry, it's been 14 months trying to get those files. Every time, I get too close and then bam! back to square one. Can't access those userdata***.backup files, can't access the phone, as soon as it starts, it gets stuck in a reboot loop, can't flash TWRP because not able to download the file. You have no idea how painful this is. Still thanks a lot, you helped me a lot, but I guess it's a lost cause now. Earlier lost the person, now lost the memories. Thanks anyways

Hello everyone, I would like to ask you how I can get back to stock official global rom, as I'm not very happy with the custom eu, firstly it is slower in app opening than global, it has chinese theme, dialer and messages are xiaomi and I don't like. Yes camera has some improvements but general experience is worse as well as battery life is almost the same (obviously they remove all analytics, something you can do yourself through ADB)
Just flash the latest stock global fastboot ROM, twrp will be overwritten. Don't forget to format data but I think that is done in the fastboot script if selected anyway. https://mifirm.net/model/star.ttt#global-fastboot-stable
Thank you so much do you have a guide to do the process? Also I would like to ask, would you recommend the stock global or the official EEA firmware (it is more updated) for a global unit? My unit is indeed the one whom you gave the firmware
I have never tried EEA but have Global. I prefer the Xiaomi dialler, contacts and messaging, so opposite to you but each to their own. It's up to you to choose, you can try each now your bootloader is unlocked.
Just download the relevant fastboot package, extract ( unzip) until you get to just folders, may need a couple of times, can't remember off hand. Once you have the folders and files, connect your phone to your PC, reboot it to fastboot and then select the bat file ( choose the one that formats data as you are changing branches) and let it run. It's just like the first ROM change from stock.
Once the script is complete and successful it should reboot. It will take time as it's a new ROM but as long as you see miui, it will be all good. You will now have stock recovery too.
I always do this using a command prompt but some prefer to use miflash, so use what you did to get it to the EU ROM. But just incase I've forgotten anything, have a read up on this, may be pop over to the Xiaomi EU forum too for some advice, https://xiaomi.eu/community/forums/xiaomi-mi-11-pro-ultra-lite.211/
So I should download the fastboot rom, then unzip the content and run the flashbat through fastboot command right? Is this the firmware I can relock the bootloader with,if I want to?
Could you please tell me where to extract the zip file to? I will use fastboot cmd, so I assume the whole rom must be extracted into fastboot directory right?
one more thing I would like to point out, honestly global rom seems faster, especially apps cold start, I'm really disappointed by this, I thought xiaomi eu was much quicker rom but the only good side of it is that it gets updated quicker, and have some new feature, but honestly my wife's mate 20 pro on stock rom at 60hz and full of apps and bloatware runs the apps faster than this phone at 120hz with a snapdragon888, this is ridicolous I spent money to have a blazing fast phone. It is almost comparable to my old one plus 3 on AOSP, even more ridicolous lol
This is the guide found on th website you linked me.
1. If Fastboot firmware. The ext. must be tgz. If not. Rename it from .gz to .tgz. Extract it by WinRAR
2. For Fastboot firmware. Download XiaomiFlash lastest. Extract tool after downloaded
3. Open XiaoMiFlash.exe. Install driver if tool required. Press select and select to firmware/ROM folder what includes flash_all.bat
4. Make sure your phone are unlocked bootloader. Or you must bring your phone to EDL mode (9008) to flash
5. Bring phone to Fastboot mode by hold Power and Volume down for 5-10s. Release button when It show Fastboot
6. Connect Phone to Computer. Press Refresh to scan device. If a device showed is Ok
7. Tick clean all (very important). If not, your phone will LOCKED BOOTLOADER after flash done
8. Press Flash and wait util it show success or any error
I use adb and fastboot via command prompt, what should I do? I don't understand points 6 and 7 and what bat should I run? flash_all.bat?
1 download the official tgz rom and unpack 2 times until there will be only directory and files and put directly on C drive
2.Download xiaomi miflash and place on drive C.
3 run miflash and install the fastboot drivers
4 start the phone in fastboot mode and connect to the PC and tell the program the path to the rom directory
5 In miflash, click refresh to make the device appear on the list
6 in miflash at the bottom select clean all
7 click flash and wait for rom to install and phone reboot
what is this miflash? miflash pro?

do I need to format any data first? Or it is as simple as that and the process will take care of all?
I did the flash with the official EEA ROm instead of the global but it ended the flashing procedure like this

But don't know why phone has booted as normal and now I'm into the setup process
why that error? because I'm on a global device?
Does anybody have any idea why the error occurred?
Also I would like to ask you how can I install magisk?
Booting into fastboot using the command to boot into twrp (fasboot boot twrp.img) and then run magisk.zip right?
After reboot I should stay on stock recovery and have magisk installed correct?
Is there a way to falsh the firmaware and format allal data using the command prompt instead of the miflash tool?

How do you want to install the magisk, do as you write
fastboot boot twrp.img after starting recovery install the zip file from magisk
then you can do data formatting as well.
Data format> YES
To install magisk AFAIK I don't need to format data,right?
Format data I was referring to the firmware flash via cmd prompt instead of mi flash, if I run the cmd into adb and fastboot folder I should copy all the firmware files into the same folder and run what command to do a full wipe using flashall.bat?
Will I have any problem in my rom/firmware/phone with that error? The phone booted and I am using it now and so far no issues whatsoever, actually the phone is blazing fast and everything is running smoothly
Hey guys, If your Realme C3 is in a bootloop. (Restarting again and again without going to the home screen) or if you want to rollback to your Stock ROM, This solution may help you.
Many of us tried to root our device, flash the new Realme UI 2.0 manually and make many other modifications to our device, So it may Softbrick or most usually go to a bootloop. And in this state the nearby Service Centers are also not open for the pandemic. But do not worry because, by following the steps in this post, you can fix your device bootloop at home.

It's not worked in my case. But, (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/realme-3-recover-from-soft-brick-boot-loop-guide.3920401/) this method worked in my case so if you face the same problem or the method not working try this. Hopefully it can help you to fix the problem.
The device that I used: realme C3 (Bangladeshi version or global version or narzo 10a in India).
Good day!
The number 3. tool seems not to work on my end,
I did have the DLL error so I downloaded it,
but after downloading it I got this error.
Hello everyone! So after the new mediatek DAA and SLA protection bypasses you can find github repo of here , using the bypass we are able to use SPFlash Tool, here is a guide how you can do it! This guide is for RMX3151 (Realme 8i) and RMX3286 (Narzo 50) ONLY. DON'T DO ANY OF THESE IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING ELSE!
ALWAYS USE DOWNLOAD ONLY MODE OF SP FLASH TOOL.
DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING RELATED TO FORMAT ON SP FLASH TOOL! (IT'S WRITTEN EVERYWHERE, YOU WILL LOSE YOUR IMEIS IF YOU USE FORMAT ALL + DOWNLOAD. YOU ARE SAFE IF YOU USE DOWNLOAD ONLY.)
Windows Method
Requirements:
Bypass Tools Pack - (DRIVER AND BYPASS FILES)
SP Flash Tool
Decrypted OFP (OPPO FIRMWARE PACKAGE) Files:
FULL FIRMWARE - INCLUDES THE "USERDATA" PARTITION, HENCE LARGER.
A.32 (Indian) - Mega | GDrive
A.32 (Global) - Mega | GDrive
A.30 (Indian) - Mega | GDrive
These firmwares are from Realme 8i but will work for Narzo 50 also (I will add Narzo 50 firmwares soon)
Install Python from Windows Store
libusb-win32 - Having Issues? Use this.
Get usbdk installer (.msi) from here and install it
1) Extract the zip
2) Go to driver folder, find the .inf file right click and press install.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
3)Download this file and install it, after installing power off phone and connect to pc while holding Vol+- (don't leave the buttons after connecting) . You might need this driver as well if it's not detected.
Press next, connect your device to PC while holding Vol+- buttons (your device needs to be powered off, and don't leave the buttons) and you will see the mtkdriver down below. Install it.
Choose MediaTek USB Port and install it.
4)Then run the brom.bat under Bypass folder.
5) Now power off the phone and connect the phone while holding volume + and - (Don't leave the buttons until the bypass is done)
6)After the above step Go into Flash Tool folder and open the SPFlash tool go to Options>Option
Click on Connections and select UART and set Baud Rate to 921600
7) after that choose scatter file and also if not set, set your download-agent. You don't need to select auth file as authorization is disabled. Once you do it, it should look like this. ALWAYS MAKE SURE DOWNLOAD ONLY MODE IS SELECTED! DON'T SELECT OTHER MODES!
Make SURE "Download Only" is selected. Don't select ANYTHING ELSE! You will lose your IMEIs, Serial Numbers, Capability of Hardware Attestation etc. if you choose "Format data + Download" make SURE you selected "Download Only".
8) Uncheck oplusreserve2 first. Now, you can start downloading with the button and after that a checkmark will appear. You can reboot your phone and use it like before now! All your userdata will (inevitably) be cleared!
After flashing it should look like this. Download has been complete. Enjoy!
Notes :
After this phone might not boot due to encryption, you can do any of the below procedures to format your data and boot your phone
1. In case you can access recovery by holding volume and power button - Wipe all data from recovery and reboot
2. In case you cannot access recovery, power off phone then enter this command in mtkclient :
Code:
python mtk e metadata,userdata,md_udc
and connect phone while holding both volume buttons. After this just reboot phone
Also note that first boot takes some time, so don't panic leave it for few minutes it'll boot

If you face any issues contact me here
great.. does this lock bootloader?? and will SafetyNet pass after this??
It doesn't work.Returns an error.
Why do you have another phone identified in the last screenshot.?And when the firmware reaches the file oplusreserve2.img gives an error that I posted yesterday?Take a look at the screenshot above.
And this is not a firmware, it takes a minute.Does not flash the super partition.You can just flash the stock files to recover and THAT's IT.

The last screenshot is for representative purpose only... No one have actually bricked yet so... The guide is pretty generalized for any mtk... If you have followed the guide properly it should work... Let me upload A32 firmware here try that.
I updated the link with latest sp flash tool... Try with that

If you face any issues write them down below...
Some people having this problem so I want to add one more thing to the guide. If you are not having any issues related to boot then don't follow these steps.
After waiting more then 10 minutes, if it doesn't boot up/bootloop. Or shows DM-Verity corrupt error then do this.
1) Try boot into stock recovery by pressing volume up + power button after that when your screen flashes quickly unpress buttons.
2) Now press volume down + power button, by pressing these you will boot into stock recovery.
3) Go to format option and do a full format.
4) Your phone will definitely boot up after that.

Realme 8 Firmware (RMX3085) - Realme Firmware
Realme 8 Firmware RMX3085 Official Flash File (Stock ROM). flash your phone using realme flashtool or MSM Download tool.

if "Brick" occured in rooting process - then can recovery be done without data loss :
Prerequisite: firmware version on the body must the same as downloaded "Decrypted OFP" (as example both is A.22 )
HowTo:
at step of SPFlashing (currently that is 10-th)
- check ONLY next partitions in SPFlash to restore :
PRELOADER RECOVERY VBMETA LK LK2 BOOT
... and NO any of other
(as thats only are touched by currently described rooting processes)
after recovery exist on every boot:
"dm-verify corrupted..."
how to get out of this message?
Reset with clearing data not helps ...

Wait for 10mins if it didn't boot then.
Format with mtk client
python mtk e metadata,userdata,md_udc
that boots ... BUT
on every boot thet alerts about "corruption"
ok cleared partitions with python...
still the same alert ...

Try booting into stock recovery and format from there
Ok. format from recovery menu solves ...
now that boots normally =
- no alert
-no boot allowing by pressing key required
good behaviour to see when boot subsystem altered, as at every boot alerted and required to press longer power button to confirm/allow starting ...
interesting, that is something new on mine (device versions) or overall ...
I have it anyway. have you solved it yet? Do I understand correctly?
after doing the insstruction, mine bootlooping and enters recovery mode

Maybe you missed some step. Can u explain ur problem briefly. What u did and what happened.

I Think that is not so solvable /possible if someone decode debug and finds /... but that is quite acceptable for rooting /if you don't want to make illegal spionage and so on/ ... also as if your device will be rooted by someone - you will see alert of changes on boot ... that is good ...
if you are rooted - you must be alerted .
but if you will going to stock rom and have protection - then flashing "stock" (surely without 3 partitions that IMEI-and-so-on-related ) and then format from recovery menu helps return to "factory" operation

There should be some mistake in your process. Because this guide is working and tested by many people.
Does global firmware have realme dialer instead of google dialer?
Can I flash Global firmware my indian device?
on your firmware package, it does not flashes super.img by default. Because in scatter file
- partition_index: SYS48
partition_name: super
file_name: super.img
is_download: false
changing false to true helps fixing destroyed super partition
