Hi all,
I going to tell you the complete story and any ideas orsuggestions will be appreciated.
I bought my mi5 in July. It came with a fake ROM but Ichanged it to OFFICAL GLOBAL STABLE .
Since then, I used the device perfectly fine, and follow theMIUI forum regularly.
Then in November I applied for betatesting Team and theyaccepted me. As my bootloader was still locked, I tried option one from abovetutorial, so I directly downloaded in my phone the GLOBAL DEV ROM and Ichoosing the package I started using Nougat for about a month, more or less.
Then, the tragedy happened. I was in a bar, having my phonein my trousers back pocket, and I set down that way. One minute, no more. Thephone´s battery was around 70%. When I realized I quickly took it but it wasnot able to turn on… Nothing pressing power volume + or any combination… I came home and let it charging all night (wallcharger) and nothing the morning after.
I tried to connect it to my PC but nothing happened in the screen,but pressing Power Volume+ the Windowsdevice Manager recognized it as “Android phone”, so after reading some threads about bootloader issues I decidesto flash it. I requested permission and then flashed it with the latest CHINADEV version. The flashing was completed, but the phone still not turningon. NEXT STEP: Local Technical Service.
They had my phone during a week. They tried to change thescreen, nothing, the battery nothing, and I don’t know which other tests theyperformed but they called me back to tell they were not able of doing nothing.
Having the phone back at home, now I was not able to get thePC seeing it as Android phone again. Nothin. Desperate me, I continued to read in internet and found in XDA a video where basically, you open the phone (remove back, and some screws),short two pins, and the PC is able to see it through the Qualcomm USB driversin EDL mode. Then flashing IS POSSIBLE. That is true. I am able to flashing,and I have tried CHINAs, GLOBAL, older ROMs about a dozen. Always the flash processsucceed, but the phone still not turning on.
After flashing I let the phone the whole night plugged inthe PC usb. Nothing
Now is plugged again to the wall charger, but nothing.
There are many threads with different solutions, so guys,please, anyone with a good idea to try??
Many Many thanks in advanced

Read this and
Use only the versions mentioned
this device is just a chinese junk i regret bought it , just after 2 days i bought it got hard bricked .
anyway flash 7.2.4 and if phone didnt boot use 3 button ( up + down + power ) for 1 minute or more and it must boot , it did work for me .
I just got brick yesterday and followed those instructions. It really worked. I was finally able to flash china dev 6.11.10. Latest dev said just "missed hello packet".
MiFlash version 2016.04 and china dev 6.11.10 was right combination for me. I connected Mi5 to PC while pressing vol- and power buttons, then I released them. I opened miflash, selected rom and chose "flash all". Flashing was completed. I tried to power on my phone pressing power button but nothing. But when I pressed vol- and power, I was able to get to fastboot mode. Rest is history. I flashed TWRP, booted to it and flashed LineageOS again.
Hope it works for you too!

Yup..it's weird thing...i suspect there's a hardware issue too..
But anyway..did you already tried to flashing fastboot rom with QFIL (qualcomm tool) too..?, if not yet..just try it..you can follow tutorial from this youtube here , just bypassing the step for installing any driver if your phone already detected as qualcomm port in your pc.
I try this method to get back my friend Mi4c from dead with condition like this too..just edl or qualcomm port while connect in device manager, then after flashing with this tool..i've try to power on with vol up + power and repeatedly vol down method above..then mi logo appear.
Hope your phone get back turn on soon..

You can try this official global stable fastboot rom that's still based android 6.0 here
If above direct link doesn't work..just visit this link , then choose "Xiaomi Mi5 Global Stable or China Stable Version Fastboot File Download..
If getting error while flashing..just put extracted folder of fastboot rom in the root of your system..ie C:\[folder_fasboot_rom]
Hi all,
After a million tests, now the phone is able to go to fastboot mode easly just pressing power&volume- (even having a black screen...) Any idea to see if this is still worth to fight?

Just try typing command "fastboot oem device-info" to see the status of your bootloader...is it still at unlocked or already relocked..?
If still at unlocked state..you can flashing fastboot rom with miflash tool.
Anyway what about QFIL method above that i said before..?, any change happen after flashing with this tool..?

3: download the latest dev rom from here: http://update.miui.com/updates/v1/fu...ni&b=X&r=cn&n=
4: Extract the files to C:\
5: Open MiFlash & point the folder to the root ROM folder, example: C:\gemini_foo_bar, NOT C:\gemini_foo_bar\images
6: connect your phone & select flash all (1st option from the left, bottom of MiFlash tool)
This might take a few tries (example - you might receive "missed hello packets)
Once you're done, you can stay with the China Dev, unlock the bootloader & flash a xiaomi.eu rom, or CM.
Good luck.

Good news so. Just download the fastboot version of the miui rom you want, download miflash tool (Google it) and use it to flash the rom. You can find full steps by step somewhere in the xda threads.

No need to enter in fastboot mode with miflash that's the point with this method. But you'll loose everything on your phone

Thank you, will try now, but will take some time to download the rom, will definitely update on the process once i tried it. i really appreciate your reply, hope this works. thanks once again.
a million thanks
It worked, You are a life saver,:good::good::good::good: thank you very much for your assistance.
I would first recommend you to download any Mi 5 Fastboot image from MIUI forums than install it in Fastboot mode (Hold Volume down+ Power button) through ADB or MIflash tool.
Afterwards recharge your phone fully and then proceed to install TWRp and custom ROM (provided you have unlocked bootloader)

Guys I wanted to install custom roms in my Xiaomi mi 5 , therefore got my bootloader unlocked and installed twrp recovery through adb . After that , I wiped my miui ROM after taking its backup and tried flashing aoscp ROM , which didn't flash . Thereafter , I restored the previous ROM and now whenever I reboot , it gets stuck on the initial startup screen where Mi logo is there .
Kindly suggest on what to do next since this is very worrying issue for me . Regards
Hello, I have a huge problem with my XIAOMI MI9 EXPLORER EDITION The system of my phone is totally destroyed and all what I can do is bring it in the FASTBOOT mode. A friend who know a lot did over TeamViewer some work. He try to FLASH the phone , but the UNLOOK TOOL don't recognize the phone. He told me the only possibility would be open the phone and bringing it like this in the EDL MODE. The phone is like brand new and I would like to search another possibility for fixing it. Right now I am in KUWAIT lo for the Corona Virus. I would welcome each kind of help.
Yeah, the only way to flash MIUI again would be to get the phone into EDL Mode and from what I have tried the only way to do this is by taking the phone apart and bridge the pins. What happens when you hold volume up and power and boot to system?

Hello everyone!
I hope this is seen, because I need your help, well, days ago I wanted to install the pixel experience rom, everything was going well, but when it was installed, I had problems with wifi, and only worked with mobile data (it should be noted that it was Android 13 and my version is merlin). Well, then I decided to change it and return it to stock rom but it has been a tragedy since then. First, I think that being mediatek, the device does not allow to be flashed with mitool, I've tried everything, install twrp but did not serve and now does not let me enter fastboot, what do you recommend? It could be solved (by myself or a technician), or better I give it as dead? I hope your prompt response

Miflash works with Qualcomm and Media Tek but for the latter it is better to use

The problem is that the phone must be in Fastboot mode.

Have you tried with the TWRP of:

I think the method there could be tried on other xiaomi phones.

For example:

"First connect your phone to your pc, if your pc does not make the sound of usb connection, press the volume key (up or down) on your device till you hear sound on your pc, and also your phone will start vibrating but if it does not vibrate keep on pressing the volume key (up or down) as many times as possible till your phone start vibrating. Then it starts connecting and disconnecting in your pc."

Maybe change the usb port or install other drivers, but as I told you above, I don't know the tools for MediaTek but it's much easier to restore them for free than the Qualcomm ones.
Do some research on the internet and take the time to fully understand.

Hi everyone, days ago I posted on the forum that I had a bootloop, I could not enter fastboot or recovery, well, I managed to install the rom by sp flash tool without errors, but now I get the error "nv data is corrupted" as seen in the video that I attach, anyone know of a viable solution? What is free and do not have any other problem and my phone back to normal? Because I can enter fastboot and maybe download or twrp or download pixel experience or a rom, What do you recommend?
I was trying to flash a new rom and accidentally hit "boot to fastboot" in the pixel experience recovery
now when i try to boot it goes black and i cant get back into recovery at all
when i put it into fastboot it isn't detected by my computer.... am i screwed?
Worst case just blank flash

Have you tried a very, very long press on power to start up?
Had you flashed already that new rom and pressed then boot to fastboot instead of boot to recovery?

This just happened to me on the same recovery. I cleared my storage/cache ect then clicked boot to fastboot to flash a new recovery this then led to me just having a black screen.
Also mi flash seems to require fastboot in which my device is not showing.
Also thanks for any help anyone gives

A black screen does mostly mean that the phone is started in EDL mode.
That is why I advice first to try a very long press on power.
You could check this inside device manager on PC, with or without the right USB drivers.
(Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008)
Flashing from EDL isn't possible without Mi authorisation as long there isn't a hacked firehose file.
Holding power seems to just be turning it off and on again. Also I cannot seem to find the phone on device manager although it plays the connection sound and refreshes when plugged in and turned on. Do you know where I would find it in device manager.
Thanks again for the help
oh wait yes it is in edl mode does that mean I am massively screwed :<
Thanks again.

If the phone does start black again after very long press.
Yes, you are screwed up with EDL and you need to go to a Mi service center, or try an "online unbrick service" with Teamviewer from a third party.
I'll seek out an online unbrick service if I can since I do not live near any mi service centers.
I did suspect it might be EDL but I am glad I now know it is.
Thank you so much for helping and also for the amazingly quick responses I hope this helps out the guy who posted this thread.
I'll post an update if I get it fixed, I won't give up that easily

I'll seek out an online unbrick service if I can since I do not live near any mi service centers.
I did suspect it might be EDL but I am glad I now know it is.
Thank you so much for helping and also for the amazingly quick responses I hope this helps out the guy who posted this thread.

I don't find the reason, in any of your posts, why it would be bricked. If your device is not really bricked, then to get it out, you have to press the three buttons at the same time for about 9 seconds, while you see the changes in device manager PC, so you can see in which mode it is. Eventually in the booting process, change the hardware buttons as if you will send it to fastboot or recovery mode, it doesn't matter the display is showing nothing, just check the device manager to have an idea.
Thanks for your suggestion.
I tried that yet it still shows the Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3). I am also a bit confused why it has bricked since I really didn't think I had done anything wrong :/
mine appears in device manager, is that a good sign? what do i do from here

if you do get it fixed please let me know what they did so i can do it as well! thank you and good luck!! ...at least this isn't my main phone..
Be sure to try all the methods to get it in other modes, it's just a timing thing, while device goes from a state to another, then you should try one time to enter to fastboot, and in a new cycle reboot, try to enter to recovery mode, BUT If the device, can't definitely enter to recovery nor fastboot mode, and it always redirects to Qualcomm HS-USB QDloader 9008 (apart than shutting down), then it's bricked.
EDL mode, using MiFlash tool requires a Mi authorized account, just older devices can use it for free, this is not the case, unfortunately.
Instead, you can try with other Qualcomm flasher tool, like QPST, not sure if it still works for this device (for older it does), you should give it a try.
@SubwayChamp is right about that.
There is a difference if EDL came out of the box or after an attempt to update or other flashing attempt.
That is why to try all possibilities to get into fastboot or recovery.
So try Vol up+ Vol down+power, Vol up+power, Vol down+power and only power always first to see if you can get out of EDL.
You can try QPST too, but search for some HowTo with pictures, because it isn't the same as Miflash and is a bit complicated if you never used it.
There still isn't a modded firehose file (prog_ufs_firehose_sm7150_ddr.elf) for RN10P to pass Mi authorization, but there is a very small chance that QPST does work.
