Hello!
Today I finally received permission to unlock my bootloader, after waiting a long 15 days (360 hours). After solving some MiFlash Unlock issues, I finally unlocked my phone. I flashed TWRP and Magisk, and then afterwards I flashed Xiaomi.eu's stable whyred ROM, which worked (including camera sensors), but was terribly slow and clearly very unoptimized. For this reason, I decided to flash the leaked official Global ROM, 9.5.6 from Xiaomi. All was well, and I was presented with the initial set-up screen. After selecting my language (English [United Kingdom]), I was forced to select China as my region on the next page. Seconds after selecting it, my phone reboot and opened the system again, only to reboot within seconds. This process would probably repeat endlessly if I didn't have it in fastboot mode. I can still access TWRP recovery, and my phone still shows that it's unlocked on the boot screen. I've tried doing another clean wipe, and then installation of the global ROM with no success (same error occurs, even when I tried English (United States)).
I've tried to use the MiFlash tool (2017.4.25) but my device isn't detected when I click Refresh, and the fastboot mode displays "press any key to shutdown...". I've tried many different drivers as I thought it was a driver issue, but now I'm not sure.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

I tried that, same issue. Also tried with the new 9.5.11 global rom update.
FIrst Flash MIUI Nougat Rom
http://bigota.d.miui.com/V9.2.7.0.NEIMIEK/miui_WHYREDGlobal_V9.2.7.0.NEIMIEK_b6ab1f7b5b_7.1.zip
after flashing this Rom and setup complete then flash the leaked official Global ROM, 9.5.6. Otherwise you won't be able to pass the setup screen in latest Oreo Rom.

This one? Fastboot ROM will probably fix that as the bootloop is caused by a conflict with the remaining partitions from the last rom.
Flashing with MIFLASH Tool and selecting CLEAN ALL will clear that issue. Check Troubleshooting at end of the tutorial, it's already answered there. My first tutorial was to downgrade to nougat but that is not needed anymore as the fastboot rom for 9.5.6 is already available.

Ah thank you, I was flashing through recovery. With that being said, MiFlash doesn't detect my phone in fastboot, even if I can normally flash to it through fastboot if I were to open a terminal. Clicking "Refresh" in MiFlash Tool just disables fastboot. I realize its unrelated to your own tutorial, as its probably some fault on my computer. Thanks for your replies!
Hey all; first post and 100% green with rooting. This is my first attempt and i'm hitting a stumbling block.
First off, I've been using the guide on "theandroidsoul"(can't post a link due to post count, but a quick google search should bring you to the exact one)
I have successfully setup ADB, unlocked the bootloader, flashed TWRP 3.2.3-1 and have been able to boot into it using ADB.
However on step 10 of the guide i'm using, it's not too clear if i should skip formatting the device memory or go ahead and do it. I did it. I suspect this might be where i went wrong.
Regardless, i'm able to move Magisk onto the internal storage and TWRP is able to install it successfully.
Once i try to reboot, the "bootloader unlocked" warning screen shows, then the oneplus boot screen appears. It shuts down and reboots like this a second time, then the screen goes black and the front LED illuminates white and nothing happens. I can shut down the phone by holding the power button, then boot into fastboot manual using power + volume up. However if i try to boot the phone normally or boot into recovery mode, it repeats the same symptoms.
I'm unaware if I've soft or hard bricked the device. Like i mentioned i'm able to boot it into fastboot just fine and can get TWRP to come up with a boot command via ADB. But no matter how many times i try to install Magisk(I tried both v18 the guide mentions and the latest v19 from their site) i can't get it to boot.
I'm aware i also used an outdated version of TWRP(the one the guide mentions). i tried to flash twrp-3.3.0-1(latest version for dumpling) but cannot. I believe because a version of TWRP is already flashed on the device?
Can anyone help me out?
Hi all,
I'm facing the same issues as Josh and came seeking help, as well, so any help would be greatly appreciated! This is my first foray into Android coming from Windows 10 Mobile, which I'm still using two weeks after purchasing the 5T because of these issues. No matter what I do, I cannot get it to work and am now stuck in the same loop as mentioned above.
I'm attempting to install LineageOS and followed the instructions on its official site to a T, but have never been able to get it to boot into the OS. The only difference from the original poster's issue is that I'm not trying to root the device.
Thanks again for any help!

Hi, on my search how to flash TWRP revovery ROM I stumbled upon your post. With my first attempts, I did not even manage to get the official TWRP to run on my op5T - got always blue led - basically the same symptoms without trying to root. Meanwhile LOS works fine on my OP5T (I updated to the latest OOS then flashed and booted twrp-3.3.0-0-20190427-codeworkx-dumpling.img.).
ANYWAY my solution to unbrick and reinstall OxygenOS again was the...
... official unbrick tool - can be found in this forum when searching after (still cannot post links): OnePlus 5T Unbricking Tool
There is also another page here on the forum collecting different unbricking tools - although I am not aware how they are - since I used another source by googling for "How to Unbrick OnePlus 5T with OnePlus 5T Unbrick Tool (Unroot/Fix bootloop)".
Hope you get it running again, like I did.

Thank you. I'll give it a shot and will let you guys know how it works out!
Please Help!!!! New to all of this.
Firstly my phone hung and wouldn't turn on. Finally later at night after non stop trying I realised it open in recovery and fastboot mode.
Recovery had the following options: (Didn't try fastboot)
- Install from internal storage
-Install from ADB
-Wipe data and cache
-Advanced
-Exit
Tried all options finally did a wipe cache and partition in data and cache
I wanted to save my data so didn't try adb
later the next day when i tried again it wouldn't turn on at all. Brick mode.
Checked online came across. https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/guide-mega-unbrick-guide-hard-bricked-t3405700
used the Method 2. Managed to get recovery installed the OS as mentioned with the thread. Nothing dif.
It wouldn't boot completly. It would go to "installing Android aps" and then reboot.
It wouldn't open in recovery as well, just fastboot. The next day even the OS stopped loading it would brick again and only load fastboot "Device State: Locked"
Tried the above method again. Used the MSM tool few times but still doesn't go past. Will only boot in fastboot mode.
Can't find any other option.
Anyway to proceed?

Re-download everything and try again. If still not successful, try the later versions of the MSM Tool (search XDA for a thread containing all the versions) and with it the later versions of OOS.
If still not successful, it might be a hardware fault.
Tried to find the later versions of MSM tool. The one i used was 3.0.
I managed to find the updated OS.
I found a link for MSM tool 3.0.6 but it has limited download size of 1gb before you sign up & the file size is 1.5 GB. Will continue looking for another link.Hopefully it works.

I have. Even though it mentions MSM tool 3.0.6, on dowload it is 3.0.0. Even though still gave it a shot, but its the same output. Only fastboot with device locked.
I have searched through Xda as well as google for MSM tool higher than 3.0, been unlucky. Didn't come across any for OP3.

I don't know which file you downloaded. The one downloaded by me last year and successfully used was Android 9 OOS 9.0.6. It contains version 4 of the Tool and OOS 9.0.6. Version 3 of the Tool will not work with OOS 9.0.6. The Tool is specific to the OOS version.
Prior to that I used version 3 of the Tool and OOS 3.1.2 from the Mega Unbrick thread you linked and that too was successful.
Be patient and try again. I have also noticed that sometimes for some people, a few repeated attempts are required before being successful.
Good Luck!

Hi guys,
i want to flash my MiPad 5 from chinese to global Rom.
I already installed the Bootloader Unlock Tool and waited one week.
Now the bootloader is unlocked and i downloaded "Xiaomi Pad 5 Global MIUI V12.5.4.0.RKXMIXM Update". There are two different Download Versions, one for Recovery and one for fastboot. Which one is correct and usable without root?
Now i'm Stuck in the Process of Downloading TWRP because I can't find a specific version for my MiPad 5. Is there anybody who can give me a step by step Guide what to do now?
Thank you

TWRP is not required to flash the global ROM.
Just specify the unzipped global ROM as the working directory of MiFlash.
try flashing fastboot rom using miflash tool
finally could flash the global rom.
i am pretty sure it was about the ryzen gaming pc i used. now it worked out with my intel laptop....
strange problem

Mi Pad 5 didn't have recovery partition, since it use A/B structure. You must execute fastboot boot recovery.img and after that install recovery to RAMdisk.

Whered you even get twrp? Had an error while flashing from cn to global as well about sparse super failed. Then tried reflashing but i got the same error as you had and all i did was reboot the tablet in fastboot while it was still in fastboot and after that it flashed successfully even though it threw out am error flash is not done but the tablet rebooted hy itself and then booted up after a minute or two. Almost gave me a heart attack while i was at it
Edit: seems you flashed it successfully already thats good. Fastboot can be clunky on ryzen sometimes, i remeber back on mi a2 had to use a hub instead of directly connecting my phone to my ryzen pc for fastboot to work properly and not get stuck while flashing. But now i can connect directly after switching to a b450motherboard, was using a b350 before
I am trying to use the Mi Flash tool and when I open it, it tells me to install Drivers, but the screen just hangs there when I press Continue.
I also get an error saying a specific log folder is not present.
I also am trying to install global rom on china model. Please help!

prob just driver problems, i use ryzen and it works fine.
Don't know if I need to create a new thread. After the unlocking, I tried to change the region from RU to CN and got the same problem after a "successful" update as chrwo with "Mismatching image and device" error and fastboot mode. Then I tried to flash global version and the device error is gone but I still have the fastboot mode. Recovery from MiToolv2 doesn't help either, after successful recovery tablet still goes only to fastboot.
Got it working after flashing with miflash on the intel PC. I used a USB port on the motherboard this time.
So maybe there is really a problem with Ryzen.

So, I dont think this a problem of Ryzen
i also brick the device using mi-flash sucking program. i finally using fastboot command flashing which copying from the stock rom "flash_all.bat" file.
So we can't lock the bootloader after installing the global rom?
Just this day, November 23, 2021, I have been trying to flash a custom rom named Syberia OS for daisy(Mi A2 Lite variant). As I have done booting up the device to fastboot(thru cmd command since my power button is jammed), I installed the twrp after booting the image to the device, making it as my recovery.
Now I am set and excited to install the rom, so I went to fastboot again and tried to flash the rom, but it always errors and not installing the rom. It is said "to flash multiple zips, reboot recovery before..." (correct me if I'm wrong), so I rebooted to recovery thru the twrp (since its in fastboot). Now, I did the same, I installed the rom again and experienced the same error so I dont know what to do, I did wiped system, data, dalvik and internal storage (a lot of times and tried to install the rom again), but I get the same error.
Then since I cant install the rom, I went to reboot to system thru twrp, and then I forgot, that I have no OS installed.
So now I'm stuck with the "Your device software can't be checked for corruption. Please lock the bootloader. Please visit this link..." plus arriving to the AndroidOne logo, and it turns off and turns on again with the message and logo, repeats until the battery is completely empty.
Is there anything I could do to go to fastboot again for a clean install of the stock rom? (I promise to not unlock the bootloader and experiment on custom roms again)
(I am sorry if you find it hard to understand, I am willing to edit this thread for better understanding if there are things you dont understand.)

Hey brother, I had the same situation a few months ago. My device - Redmi 6 (Cereus).
So, I was trying to install TWRP in Redmi 6 and then after trying many times TWRP successfully got installed. But when I tried to boot the device, It stuck in bootloop (Going to fastboot and again booting...). So, the answer is that you first boot into fastboot mode of your device and then download the fastboot Rom of your device, (link of fastboot rom of your device - https://xiaomifirmware.com/download/18010/ ) . Then go to your PC and then extrac
the fastboot file, then connect your phone to pc and go to fastboot mode then open the extracted folder and then click on flash-all (The batch file) and then a new command window will open automatically and flashing process will start. After it's done your phone will reboot automatically. For reference, go ahead. Best of luck!
