Mi Max Stuck On Mi Logo and Bootloop - Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers

Hi Guys. I have a problem with my Mi Max 32/3gb. After OTA update it stucks on bootloop while the boot loader was locked and unrooted. I tried every method found in c.Mi.com and xda websites. nothing helped me to overcome this problem. I could enter to fastboot and also EDL modes, I also opened the back cover to remove the battery and shorting the test points but no luck. In fastboot mode I got error because the bootloader was locked, while in EDL mode I could successfully flash the fastboot roms including Ch_Dev, Ch_sta, Glob_Dev, and Glob_sta, but after turning on the phone, it shows bootloop again and again. But on time accidentally my phone loaded on boot and came alive (I don't know how!!). this time I first signed in with my mi account and applied for unlocking bootloader, then factory rested the device to see if it boot-up again or not. unfortunately it again stucked on bootloop. After unlocking the bootloader, I tried recovery roms using mi PC suite beta (Chinese version) which got error says something like your bootloader is locked (but it is not), Also I tried loading recovery rom using TWRP which the procedure stucks at "package_extract_file took 00s" for about 60mins and nothing happen. the only differences between all of these methods is bootloop at MI logo, bootloop at Mi logo and android logo with three blinking dots, freeze at MI logo, and freeze at Mi logo and android logo with three blinking dots. Any Idea?

Clear data after flashing, also only use save userdata when flashing fast boot rom

Thank you for your reply. Tried before but not helped.
I can flash fast boot rom successfully in Fastboot and edl modes using Mi flash tools beta and also Mi PC suit without any error, but the phone cannot boot and still freeze at mi logo and some time bootloop. Flashing recovery rom is not possible in recovery mode even using TWRP and Mi PC suit, freeze in the beginning of flashing. How can I check to see if all necessary files of fast boot rom were copies to memory? I thing some thing force memory to lock especially in recovery mode!!!!
Any idea?

Maybe you should unlock the bootloader?

i know, i just went back to miui9 from nitrogen oreo last week, my bootloader was unlocked too. but mine also couldn't boot past mi logo, so i tried everything like you did, the only thing worked for me was to re-unlock bootloader, flash fastboot rom, clear data in recovery, reboot.

Oneplus 3 Bricked - Unbrick doesn't work...

Hello guys,
my Oneplus 3 is hard bricked, I tried the methods in the Mega Unbrick guide, my device already gets shown as Qualcomm 9008 ... in Device Manager, so I started the MSM DownloadTool and it flashed anything without errors. But when the phone reboots I get a black screen and the white led is on.
I can't even boot to stock recovery (Volume down + power doesn't work and rebooting to recovery through fastboot doesn't work, too....) my bootloader is locked and all attempts to unlock the bootloader are failing with the error "remote: oem unlock is not allowed"
So at the moment I'm stuck in fastboot and nothing else works -.-
Can someone please help me?
The unbrick tool has an old firmware, can I replace the files with files from a newer firmware?
Thanks!
Have you tried the exact steps from Method 2? Maybe unzip it? If that doesn't work which is highly unlikely then there is not much you can do.

Yeah I tried it as I said, the MSM DownloadTool showed me Completed and the phone tried to boot up after that.
I'm now contacting the OP Customer Support, I've read a few times that they have other files to unbrick the phone with the MSM Tool.

Ye thats the only thing you can currently do... May i ask what you have done how did it get bricked?
I just updated AICP ota and after flashing the update my phone didn't boot up. The screen went black immediately.
So I thought that it is maybe a Problem with the ROM and I tried to go back to stock.
Flashed the stock recovery and locked the bootloader, but I couldn't boot to the stock recovery.
There it started...
Switch off the phone, connect usb ,open unbrick tool full ( method 2),Press vol up,down and power buttons same time ,tool will recognize phone then start , you must unbrick now.
NEVER LOCK YOUR PHONE.

Please read, I already did that.
The tool completed it successfully, but still black screen after a reboot.
Only the LED is flashing white.
I already contacted the support, they will do it remotely tomorrow.

Never but never lock your bootloader...
If recovery, boot or system partition is modified. There's no harm in re locking otherwise..

I'm assuming your device is OnePlus3 and not 3T
Okay. Firstly give a try to Oneplus3 openbeta Nougat special edition.
Oneplus3 : http://downloadmirror.co/Wa9/O2N_OBT_15801_OXYGEN_SIGN_wipe.zip
Method 1 : specific recovery for open beta24 available in Oneplus downloads
https://downloads.oneplus.com
Find legacy roms and find openbeta 24
Method 2: latest TWRP
If your bootloader is locked this isn't gonna work. But if it is still in unlocked .
Download TWRP for Oneplus3 from official TWRP site
Flash the recovery you choose using fast boot.
Now using asn command, try to flash the special edition.
Mostly this solves your issue. It helped me.
Let me know whether you face any issues.
Note: in this method you may lose every data you have on the phone. It boots up (if at all ? ) with fresh firmware and fresh storage (sometimes)

The file I gave link to is a special edition by Oneplus for Openbeta-Nougat. You can go to Nougat from any rom.
Rom: http://downloadmirror.co/Wa9/O2N_OBT_15801_OXYGEN_SIGN_wipe.zip
Specific recovery should be downloaded from Oneplus website.
You can sideload using adb or store internal storage and flash.
I tried with latest TWRP recently and it worked.
Note that all your data gets wiped if you use oneplus-recovey and asn sideload

Yes, it won't stick at 60% with this beta. I'm not the owner. It was provided on Oneplus forums. Try that one and tell me the result. It is a signed zip. So it will work on official Oneplus-recovery

Simply reboot to recovery and say yes to wipe every data.
Note1:
all your internal data is wiped in the method I suggested. I can recall there is a method to recover data only if bootloader is unlocked. If your bootloader is locked there is no other way.
Note2: your data will be formatted to f2fs file system. If you want to flash any custom ROM, YOU SHOULD CHECK COMPATIBILITY WITH F2FS in that ROM forums.
It's better to always have EXT4 file system. You can change this file system with TWRP

Even if the bootloader is locked, you can boot into the current rom and unlock simply by going to advanved options.
It is a very simple process.

Did factory reset rooted XT 1799-2, now phone only boots into recovery mode

Hi,
My previous post relates to this one. Due to that problem I got, I had to factory reset my device to get my camera working again. However, instead, my phone rebooted into TWRP and would not boot system normally. When I tried to go to factory mode via fastboot I ended up in endless bootloop. Back in TWRP I tried to restore my backed up ROM from before rooting, but nothing really changed. I am really desperate because I have not find any solutions for my model and I don't want to use other montana models stock ROMs as I suspect them not to be compatible. What shall I do?
Cheers

Sorry this is the stock rom of montana_retcn, to install the playstore by the store that comes in it, and it has the English language.
The rom that you were supposed to be a shop rom of the store that you bought, mine came with one of this but unfortunately I do not know where it has to download ...

Turn off the device, boot into Fastboot Flash Mode using vol down + power, using volume keys scroll and select factory mode and device will turn on. the next time you boot up the device, it won't go into TWRP directly. I have faced this issue many times. Hope this helps.

Not in this case. What Factory Mode did was that it got stuck in loading loop playing the Moto logo endlessly for over 5 minutes. Anyway, the phone is now hard bricked so I am facing even larger issue )

Flash stock ROM via fastboot problem will be solved..
As far as people who need play store can flash gapps via TWRP as a same method we use for custom ROMs.
P.S. i will not suggest to buy XT1799-2 because this SKU is purely made for Chinese Market, if you need any custom ROM go to Weibo.com/diyroms and post a request to build a custom ROM for this device.
And there are some custom ROMs available that you can search via baidu.com ( Chinese Search Engine).
I will try to find any ROM and post for you guys and also post. Request to build for XT1799-2.
CHEERS
so have you find any global custom rom for this device ?

Weird bootloop with locked bootloader

Long story short, I ended up with a classic bootloop (shows boot animation continuously) from messing around with Magisk modules, so I did a wipe from recovery, still bootloop, so I tried reverting completely to stock with the OEM downloads. I tried flash_all_except_storage.bat, and flash_all.bat, but this time it was a different bootloop. The phone shows the Android One logo, the screen flickers like it's going to the boot animation, but then it just goes back to the Unlocked Bootloader Warning Screen, then the Android One logo, and loops like that. I dumbly thought locking the bootloader, reflashing everything, and starting over like it were a new phone would fix the issue, so I did flash_all_lock.bat, but now I'm just stuck with this weird bootloop and a locked bootloader. Trying to unlock the bootloader with fastboot just gives me "oem unlock is not allowed", so I'm at a loss here.
Does anyone know of anything else I could do, or is this a hard brick?
With a locked bootloader EDL flash probably is your last chance.

I got stuck with a similar problem and that was the only option, to boot into EDL mode you will need to partially dissasemble your device and flash the image via fastboot or via MiFlash (download the latest version as I had problems with an older one). Since that incident I kept the bootloader unlocked just in case something happens.
I had the phone booted into EDL mode and attempted to flash the stock ROM (10.0.3.0) with MiFlash, but it errored out with an ERROR_UNSUPPORTED_TYPE. I tried with the previous version, 10.0.2.0 and it worked for some reason. That fixed it though, so thanks! I've been lightly tinkering with rooting android phones a few years now, but until encountering this issue, I'd never heard of EDL mode. You learn something new every day? ?
I have the same issue with my nephew 's mi a2 lite which has the bootloader locked.
It only shows the android one logo.
I cannot go to recovery mode, but I can go in fastboot.
Changing from "a" to "b" doesn't solve anything and being the bootloader locked is not possible to flash anything from fastboot.
So I've opened the device and I've short circuited the edl pinpoint to be able to flash with MiTool (I've used an old version since more recent ones gave errors when flashing).
I was able to flash both the latest official ROM and the oldest one which I've found ( daisy_global_images_V11.0.14.0.QDLMIXM_10.0 and daisy_global_images_V9.6.4.0.ODLMIFF_8.1 respectively).
In both cases the device still is "frozen" with the android one logo when I've tried to turn it on after the flashing procedures gave me a successful status.
What else can I do?

Mi A2 Lite bricked on stock

Hello everyone,
My Mi A2 Lite just died today. I was on stock 8.1 rooted and suddenly it freezes so I rebooted it and I got stuck on Android One logo WITHOUT ANY animation.
I tried to boot into recovery via adb but I get stuck on TWRP logo. I tried to flash fastboot image but nothing changes....

Two quick questions:
1.The phone died on its self without your intervention or...?
2.Have you tried to flash the stock firmware via MiFlash , while the phone is in edl mode(the command is: fastboot oem edl)?
1) yes, it got stuck so I rebooted it
2) I tried flashing with MiFlash tool in fastboot mode. When I connect it in fastboot edl the mi flash tool sees it as COM and therefore I’m not able to flash it.
I’m I doing something wrong?

I think you are confusing some things here; adb is not an option now so you can´t boot device normally and also you said "fastboot edl" but they are different modes.
While in fastboot how did you try booting to TWRP image? (you said through adb but this is not right)
Can you get to fastboot? (hold vol down while booting, should see a rabbit on the screen)

When your phone is in EDL mode(you won't be seeing any logo on your phone ,only black screen) it's absolutely normal to see the device as COM port , because the device is in another factory mode. And there is no problem flashing stock ,when your phone is seen as COM port. So if you can't flash the stock firmware in fastboot mode or EDL mode , maybe you have a hardware issue. To be sure -take a screenshot of the error in MiFalsh when the phone is in edl Mode (seen as a COM port) and you try to flash the stock firmware.
Ok, I understand the difference between EDL (black screen) and Fastboot mode. I can get in both mode. I tried to flash fastboot stock rom (taken from the thread in xda) and everything goes smoothly, but it stays in fastboot mode at the end and when I send the command fastboot reboot it gets stuck again on the Android One logo (no animation).
When I tried the EDL mode, mi flash returns something missing (I will post the screenshot asap) and it seems like is not the right thing I'm trying to flash or something similar (I will post more information as soon as I can). (I'm trying to flash the same fastboot roms found in xda)
So, just to make sure I'm doing the right thing, where I can find the stock firmware to flash?
Thanks again for your help!

Here is the stock firmware from Xiaomi site:
https://en.miui.com/getrom-354.html?m=yes&mobile=2
Don't worry that it says MIUI , the firmware is Android One , they just forgot to change the name from MIUI to Android One , I have already tried it ,and I can confirm that it's 100% stock Android One firmware , good luck!
Ok I performed the flash but the error i get is new.
I get the error ACK count don't match!
I tried the version
daisy_global_images_V10.0.9.0.PDLMIXM_20190514.0000.00_9.0_f9d0c739e0.tgz

I will give a solution in a minute
EDIT: Are you sure your bootloader is unlocked? (fastboot oem unlock)
You have two choices , you need to find an older version of MiFlash beta , i'll give you a video :
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-7O1Svib14g
In the video description you can find a link for the MiFlash beta ,I hope it helps.
If not , you'll have to consider the Testpoint unbrick method , there are several guides.
OK, thanks to the use of the BETA version I was able to flash the rom but unfortunately I still get the same AndroidOne logo without any animation....
I really don't know what to do now...
Yes the bootloader is unlocked and I checked with fastboot getvar

Ok , it totally sound like some kind of hardware issue with the storage . Is there any way to boot in TWRP ?
Download the TWRP version 3.3.3-1 offain and try to boot with it (fastboot boot recovery(the name of the recovery).IMG) and wait until the TWRP logo disappear. Wait at least 1 minute if the logo doesn't disappear , then in my opinion , you have a hardware problem , if you succeed to booting in TWRP download the GM 1.1 version from this thread :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/development/9-miui-rom-t3960704
and flash it via TWRP. Then reboot and leave the phone without touching at least 10 minutes (until you see some movement like on the bottom of the screen , there will be a MI logo , right above the logo if you see 3 dots moving , then you're saved . From there we can proceed , but if you can't flash even this rom , if nothing helps. I hope you have a warranty , reflash the stock rom with the option flash_all_lock and go to your warranty service center.
EDIT: I googled and found another issue, that might be causing this strange situation: You may got scammed , and the device might not be a Mi A2 Lite , but rebranded Redmi 6X. See this thread:
http://en.miui.com/thread-5984082-1-1.html
If your phone is displayed "Wayne" ,not "Daisy" ,then you'll have to flash a Redmi 6X firmware to get rid of the bootloop

I will now try your solution, I just tried the testpoint unbrick method but still same problem.
The output from fastboot getvar all shows a DAISY bootloader. Where I can see the real name of the device to see if it is a Mi 6X?

tried the command too, it doesn't work.
So test point doesn't work too.. That's bad news
EDIT: fastboot getvar product command works , you can try it
And another question , have you tried to boot with patched boot.IMG ?
It seems indeed some hardware problem... Is there any way I can try to boot something from the SD card? (In order to rule out the storage problem....

You need a recovery to flash , which has a specific partition in the phone storage. You can flash only via fastboot . You need to boot into recovery , so try with a patched boot image for your version of the rom

So the last resort , we'll try to flash the ROM that I have mentioned before via fastboot. Place the zip file GM 1.1 in your PC (it has to be in the same directory as your adb and fastboot tools)
then open cmd and run the command
fastboot flash (the full name of the zip).zip
and hit enter
maybe that will solve it
And if this doesn't help again... type these fastboot commands :
fastboot format userdata
fastboot format system
fastboot format cache
fastboot format vendor
fastboot format recovery
fastboot format boot
then try again to reflash the stock rom (first try in edl mode ,if this doesn't do anything ,you'll have to format everything via fastboot commands again ,and try to flash the ROM in fastboot mode)
And if this doesn't help too... Then you're free to hit that ? in the ground hahahah (just kidding)
Tried both these two last but nothig works, I always get the same problem.
I just saw your comment on patched boot, can you elaborate a little bit on this?
I'm honestly very close to throw it in the trash

which version of the firmware you are flashing? 10.0.9.0 or another version , so I can send you a link and walk you through the procedure.
And when you flashed the GM 1.1 the boot screen didn't changed from Android one? (the GM 1.1 version is a MIUI stock port and has to change your boot screen to black screen with white MI logo on it) It is very important to know
One of my friends told me to try this: just open the directory of the stock firmware , navigate to flash_all.bat and run the bat file (NOT THE FLASH_ALL_LOCK!!!) and wait for the end of the process. He had a similar problem , and it worked. He explained that for any reason , the recovery was the problem , because it was flashed in the boot partition. When you use flash_all.bat The file will erase all partitions and rewrite them. MiFlash won't , so try that

Xiaomi 10T Pro bootloop – possible to save data?

Hi guys,
I have a problem with a Xiaomi 10T Pro. It is in bootloop. The reason for that is unknown (it’s a friend’s phone). The phone settings are basically all standard, meaning the bootloader is locked, stock recovery and stock OS. I can access recovery and fastboot. Safe boot and repair boot out of recovery does nothing. It is just showing the MIUI logo as during the normal boot.
Is there any way to copy the data of the phone (photos would be enough)?
I read about flashing just the boot.img of the firmware but I don’t know which version is running. I am assuming the newest one that come with OTA updates.
I also read that some people wiped the data in recovery (only full wipe possible in stock recovery) and then used some android data recovery software to recover their data.
Not very satisfying options. I would really appreciate a different way. Any ideas?
My first idea was to boot into TWRP but because of the locked bootloader this is not possible.

Note that this may be a hardware problem.
As the bootloader is locked, you can only try to erase the data and see if the phone restarts, which is not certain and then try with recovery software, also not certain.
Or before erase the data, this tool:

Choose "my device is bricked"
Also without warranty.
I have Ur same exact issue xD been like that for months

Thank you for your reply.
I haven’t found a different solution yet so despite the fact that this method is not certain I guess I’ll try it in the next couple of days. Before that I’ll also give this Xiaomi tool a try.
Do you know some good data recovery tools that I could use if the device will boot?

Never had to try to recover my data on a smartphone, sorry.
