Hello everyone ... I have a xiaomi mi5 in bootloop.
- Initial ROM fake seller (learned later)
- I tried to update with MiPcSuite and is now in bootloop.
- I DO NOT unlocked bootloader
- I did NOT access Xiaomi account on mi5 (so I can not unlock it now even if I have permission from Xiomi)
- First of all, I activated the "developer mode" and "USB debugging".
- I can only enter Fastboot mode
-I Can not use the recovery mode
- I can not get into EDL in any way: no adb, no tool here (with the tool says restarting EDL success but restarts and reappears MIUI logo, does not turn on the red light and nothing appears in the device manager)
Thank you
Try to wipe system and install
1. Go to fast boot.
2. Wipe all partitions
Code:
> fastboot erase boot
> fastboot erase recovery
> fastboot erase system -w
flash fresh fastboot image from Mi
Code:
>fastboot flash system <image name>
It works? It has already been tested? I could not find any other guide that told you to do this ... I will not say that I do not trust this, but I want to do other s-h-i-t! I remember that I have the bootloader locked, and I can not go to EDL mode ... thank's
Not sure you are allowed to run the flash command when you're on locked bootloader. I'd try it without erasing, since flashing overwrites the partition in question anyway.
I have experience like you... Get bootloop.
But when I wipe/erase all of internal memory through Mi PCSuite China version, it's boot normally and MiUI8 started.
I tried the same method to apply the official china stable rom on my friend Mi5, it's bootloop... Then when I wipe all, it's boot normally.
Hope this will help you...

You can get help from Google translate app.
Take photo from Google Translate then translate to your language.
Use the Chinese mi pcsuite if the English one doesn't recognize the phone. I am not sure if you cannot enter in any form of recovery you have luck with that though.
Fastboot and miflash that was suggested will not work with locked bootloader.
Your best and last bet is to use EDL mode. The issue with Mi5 is that it doesn't go easily in EDL mode. not with key combo at least. Have you tried this? https://forum.xda-developers.com/an.../guide-how-to-reboot-to-edl-fastboot-t3394292. Otherwise, check for deep flash cable or make one yourself.
in lineage's Usermanual it says after a few steps:
Hold Volume Up and Power buttons simultaneously. Continue to hold both buttons until the “MI” logo appears on the screen, then release.
I get only fastboot-image nothing else.
i did the following comands:
> fastboot erase boot
> fastboot erase recovery
> fastboot erase system -w
>fastboot flash recovery recovery twrp-3.1.1-0-gemini.img
Both Power and + or Power and - : Same result: Fastboot.
I had unlocked the phone and usb-debugging was enabled.
I do use Linux by the way
Hey, did you solve it? I have same problem and I'm desperate
No I didn't solve the problem. I realized that I completely was wrong. I had an Xiaomi Mi 5c in stead of Xiaomi Mi 5.
I finally was able to flash it because I choses the wrong Recovery and Rom.
Then I sold it and bought a Xiaomi Mi 5 which I wanted because it is supported by lineageos...
?

Hahahah what a story man, I fear I didn't choose the wrong Rom and I have a good brick :') Lineageos is just amazing, have fun!
.....And anyway, in the end I had solved it with a home-made EDL cable 3 years ago ???...and my Mi5 is still alive in my hands 3 years after ?
I had forgotten this thread
I hope you can now sleep well again at night now that you know that everything went well ?
Goodbye
Hello everyone, just get frustrated right now my brand new 5X Half-Bricked after trying to flash stock fastboot firmware of the A1 through EDL with mi flash. just over excited of this devices, as i'm not a new one on this stuff and things, so that i ignoring some post said that the mi A1 rom won't run/boot compatible with 5X. (some interesting post right here about 3 Variants Hacked Bootloader http://en.miui.com/thread-840402-1-1.html)
I put whole things needed togather (fastboot firmware of A1, and Mi5X, also Twrp and some of unbrick zip from the thread above) so i was thinking when everythings gone crazy and bad i just need to reverting back to stock fastboot firmware of MI5X and everything works fine.
i do backup my QCN file so the worst thing i losted the imei and baseband i just need to restore that backup. Then i start the stupid things with proud.
flashing the Mi A1 sucessfully without any error on mi-flash then power it on boom, as i predicted it won't be as easier and simple as that step. some error text appeared on my screen some related to bootloader things, okay i just go into fastboot and unlocking with type "fastboot oem unlock" done with success and thats also said in terminal. okay then i rebooted (no panic at all), so the warning text still, then appeared your system has been destroyed, okay than i put the mi A1 recovery and flashing that through the fastboot, its said error no such partitions "recovery"??? (bit panic here) but trying to type "fastboot boot tissot.img" (tissot the codename of A1) its boot and send me into recovery, flashing some A1 rom for 5X from xda still won't boot at all (start panic here ).
so everything i try here flashing stock miui also won;t even boot and see the homescreen. I give up and OK i just need to flash the stock 5X through EDL, rebooting to edl and then flashing the stock 5X and success flashing done without any error, so i rebooted but its only stuck at MI logo then restart itself (really PANIC), so i get into recovery (stock MIUI) and mybe wiping whole data and cache will help, but there's no changes still restart/rebooting itself , okay i need to flash again this time i downloding Develover versions, and put the devices into edl through test point this time (as now the bootloader are relocked after flashing the stock one).
after flasing done the device still won't even boot at all just stuck at MI logo, now i really need help anyone any advices will really help, thanks

I think you should not unlock the bootloader using the command fast boot OEM unlock,you should go to http://en.miui.com/unlock/ here and download the app to unlock it, and when you flash a new rom which is not miui,you must keep it unlock,do not fastboot OEM lock,that will cause it can not go into system and stuck in logo

Nope, that's the basic things and i really know how it works, As for now i''ve no ways to go / reach the homescreen at all, so i can't put my mi account in setting and linked the device into my acccount, its useless using the miunlock tools. And i can only do that commands right after i converted mine to A1 firmwares.
hi, finally, i know what problem you met, because i have met the same problem, the solution is ,you go to the fastboot ,first unlock the devices, then fastboot reboot,then you find you go to the system, then you go back to fastboot,and last ,you need to use the miflash to flash the rom,and it should work fine now,it seem when you are locked,the miflash can not really work
Last news, damn lucky bastard i'am got replaced units, lets see does we'll have some aosp goodies soon..

Use the mi unlock tool ,you can only unlock the phone when you are in fastboot mode,,turn off the phone,press the power and volume down bottom simultaneously,and you will be in fastboot mode
Hi guys!
I have a little problem. A couple of days ago I soft bricked my phone,and there was a boot loop. But fortunatelly today I found the solution and now my phone working again. But I would like to revert everything because I cant uptade the system. When I uninstall the Magisk,and I restart the phone, I fall into the same problem,I got the boot loop and a lot of things. So I know the solution how to get out from the boot loop,but how can I restore my phone? I want to make a clean install and lock the bootloader.
Sorry my bad english

Unfortunately It's not working because the bootloader locked. And I cant do anything in fastboot mode. The only working command is fastboot boot xy.img. With this command I can boot my phone.
EDL mode?
Perhaps using test point to force edl and flash the rom thought miflash.
I Have Hard Bricked My Mi A2 By Installing The Oreo firmware Through fastboot Mode, And Now my pc isnt recognising the device and it gets stuck on bootlogo and only goes to the fastboot mode. Plzz Help.:crying::crying:

Unlock critical, enter edl mode, then flash firmware using mi flash
same issue
hi bud.
got a very similar issue, except mine packed in automatically. did you manage to get yours fixed?

these steps should work if you do that properly.
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
enter edl mode
Code:
fastboot oem edl
(or by test point method)
BTW it is just a simple SoftBrick which is totally solvable.
If your boot-loader is not get blocked then you can do it with ADB sideload but if BT is blocked then the only way remains is the EDL flash mode.
Hey , thank you so mush, I tried since yesterday and your method is the only one that save my phone !
Hello XDA members,
I am facing a weird issue on my MI 8. Stucked on fastboot mode. Actually i flashed a wrong device rom via twrp. Didnt flashed and got an error this rom is for violet devices. Done.
Then i tried to mount the storage. Nothing showed on my computer. Then i restarted the device. After restart it never came back to MIUI. Stuck at fastboot. Flashed fastboot mode rom. It give success. But nothing run. Still get back to fastboot mode. Please help. Either i damaged the internal storage or there is something else?
Please help
