Hello!
Was using 7.2.8.0 ROM out of box.
Tried to update to developer 6.5.19 but something went wrong. Now only fastboot/recovery works. Can't do fastboot oem edl - tells me it should be unlocked. Same problem with fastboot flash system - tells me device is locked. Me PC Suite doesnt recognize device at all. Tried on my laptop and PC. Help please.
any1?
Are you logged into your Mi Account on the phone? If yes I guess you have to wait for bootloader unlock and then flash rom with fastboot.
I logged in last time my phone worked.
The unlock procedure uses my phone and it cannot start so I will be unable to unlock it since only fastboot and recovery modes are available.
any other suggestions?
apply for the bootloader unlock code with your mi account (use other phone while you fix the xiaomi), wait for the unlock approval sms code, its tooks like 7 to 15 days, then download the software for the unlock bootloader process, loggin with your approved mi account, put your phone in fastboot mode, connect it to the pc press start and thats all (no need to boot in normal mode for unlock), you should have your bootloader unlocked and you will be able to enter in EDL mode and flash again the rom.
P.D. Sorry for my bad english

That's pretty much exactly what I wrote in my post XD
Have you try to flash using MiFlash?
You can download it from here
My friend also encounter this problem and what he did is:
1. Use a fresh installed notebook with Win 7
2. Use MiFlash to flash the image file.
Image file can be downloaded from here.
It should works with locked bootloader as you are flashing the stock image.
Please give it a try.
Any luck alien2k1?
I'm in the same boat, bricked Mi 5, can access bootloader and TWRP recovery, but can't turn phone on because of bootloop. I want to use Mi PC Suite to flash the fastboot rom. But, when my phone is in Fastboot mode, and I connect it to the computer with the micro USB, it says "Try connect in normal mode first then switch" . But my phone is stuck in a bootloop and I can't "connect in normal mode first." It can't detect my phone in Fastboot mode, and it can't detect my phone in "normal mode" because I can't turn the phone on in normal mode because it gets stuck in a bootloop.
My bootloader is unlocked.
I can't open MiFlash either and I can't turn on USB debugging on the phone because its stuck in a bootloop. What should I do?

If you're on unlocked bootloader and can access fastboot, why don't you use the fastboot packages? There's a script provided by them in the fastboot downloads to flash everything

I am in the same ****in situation, have you solved your issue ?
thanks
Looks like everyone is in the same boat here. I have tried several methods but the Redmi Note4 wont work. Mi PCSUIT wouldnt detect my phone either. Fastboot wont work with the message "Try connect in normal mode and then switch." I am wonder what is the sure and final solution to this problem. The issue is flashing all over the internet but no specific solutions yet.
If you have any working solution, please share. Thanks

thankful, you open my eyes!
Hello everyone! My Phone is stuck in a way that i can't even enter download mode. When I press volume up and insert USB cable it goes to download mode for a second and quickly boots into fastboot.
Bootloader status: LOCKED
Root status: ROOTED
Sometimes it also shows error "Secure booting error 1002", which may be due to installing TWRP on a locked bootloader. Now It won't even be detected in fastboot when installing KDZ through LG UP or LG FlashTool, neither I can hard-reset it.
:crying:
How can I fix download mode now?
Your problem like me. I find the solution is more to fix it and is more not success (MicroSD image boot, QFIL, JTAG and blah blah blah)
lastest. The solution is helping me is QFIL method is help me to enter Download mode
at least you must have Qualcomm qdloader 9008 on Windows device manager
I had recently tried to updated my p9-Eval19c185 to android 7 from b220 to b368 but the update failed, when i tried to rollback changed the phone stopped boot-looping and now only turns on and gets stuck on the boot logo.
I cant flash from sDcard dload file any more
Phone can only go into fastboot rescue mode
FRP and Phone locked and when i try to unlock oem using fastboot or erase frp, phone turns off immediately and boots to logo but still remains unlocked.
Any Help????? Fixes??rumors??
Sounds Illicit.
Hi everyone, i made an account so i could ask this and i hope i can get advice .
I have a XT1900-4, bootloader unlocked and twrp installed, however . I made a factory reset and it got on bootloop at the logo, i could manage to turn the device off but my volume down key seems to not work so i cannot access fastboot using vdown+power keys, if i turn it on it keeps on restarting, showing unlocked bootloader notificacion and then the logo , to shutdown and repeat.
Idk what to do since my pc seems not to be able to detect the cellphone while is rebooting, so no adb reboot bootloader.
Any ideas?
I had this issue on an older phone I had (an Xperia X Compact). I let it die by just bootlooping until the battery was done, then I was able to get it into fastboot mode. Not sure if someone else will have a better idea.
Hi everyone,
I locked my asus rog 3 bootloader with the command "Fastboot oem asus-lock"
after restarting the phone it gave me "your phone is corrupted and cannot be trusted" error.
then I rried to inter recovery mode to do a format but the phone enters CSC Fastboot mode and stuck in it!
Please help me solve this issue.

Use EDL mode to flash a clean firmware - you can find all you need on the forums here. You can also try and flash a clean boot img only first using QFIL and see if that resolves it depending on which ROM you're on.
