Stucked in Fastboot mode

Hi Guys,
I am stucked at fastboot mode afterb trying to flash back to China Rom,how to get out of it?
Thanks in advance.

Mi max 3 anti roll back, you mus flash last version to unbrick your device

1. This is not the right section for this question.
2. if you came from 8.8.23 China Beta you have Anti-rollback, which means that to move to china stable you would have to wait for the next china release and flash it from the updater app and not from fastboot. I know its annoying but its safe. If you are stuck in fastboot try flashing latest 8.8.23 China Beta from mi flasher
3. if you came from 8.8.9 China Beta, Try flashing 8.8.9 again

This happened me too today. My phone arrived with the fake global rom 9.6.4. I was flashing official Chinese rom v9.6.11.0 and got a message saying flash successful, however a window also popped up saying MiFlash stopped working and my phone was stuck on the fastboot screen then.
If you find a solution to this problem I would appreciate it and vice versa.

STUCK TWO!!!

1- flash and boot to twrp
2- format data then wipe (system and cashes)
3- flash xiaomi.eu 8.8.9 or any release before that and reboot
4- use mi flashtool to flash any stable before 9.6.12 or beta before 8.8.17 and choose wipe all and lock in mi flashtool ( this is very important to unlock it your self later with official permission)
Goodluck

yes, most of the unlocked phones from retailers are unlocked without official authorization and that is the main reason for ADB/fast boot fails in some cases , I have MM1, MM2 and now MM3 and I know this by experience.

hi, you enlighten me so much. can i ask more? now what rom do u use in mi max 3? and why?

So to rectify, I tried to flash the official China ROM V.9.6.11 again. It did not flash properly again the 2nd time.
I then asked it to "flash and lock". Official China ROM flashed now and operating on my phone.
My plan is now to apply to have the phone OFFICIALLY unlocked, as it was obviously unofficially unlocked to put the fake Global ROM on it by the vendor, which caused a problem being stuck in Fastboot.
I do not mind waiting the 2 weeks, and once unlocked I will either put the Xiaomi.EU rom on it, or hopefully the official Global ROM will be released by that time.

You must relock and unlock with official mi permission to avoid fastboot flashing issues.

Where I can download the official rom to use mui flash?
Where i can find an explanation to use mui flash? Cause after lock the boot loader the phone is in bootloop...

What do you actually flash in step 1?
Is step 3 really necessary? Why can't I flash from the fake ROM directly to 9.6.11?
Thanks, man!

in step (1) flash official twrp ( I used minimal adb v1.4.3), step (3) is to have correct firmware and avoid mi flasher fail and boot loop ( many guys try flashing directly from fake rom to China but ended up with bootloops)

Alright, so I am on China stable 9.6.11 with TWRP (not Xiaomi original recovery). When I flashed my latest ROM, I chose "clean all and lock (bootloader)" per your instructions and I applied for offical bootloader unlocking by downloading Xiaomi flash unlocking. I still have 500+ hours, but I was told when my bootloader is unlocked eventually, my user data will be erased again.
So will it be a better idea to flash global stable ROM first or wait for the official bootloader unlocking then flash global stable ROM?

Question: I have China Stable 9.6.12.0 on mine Max3. If I want to install the Global Version should I have to wait for Global Version equal version (9.6.12.0) or later? Os there any suggestion to flash the incoming Global 9.6.7.0 on mine (ARB suposed to be implemented in mine version)?
Inviato dal mio S8 utilizzando Tapatalk

now i dont have any rom on it so trying to load a rom but getting an error ERASE is not allowed in locked state
what rom can i flash on it ?

Yes it is safe.. fastboot method is always a safest method to flash MIUI ROM
Note : if your device is global variant then you can flash global ROM and lock your bootloader but if your device is Chinese variant then do not flash global ROM and lock bootloader

You have to flash 10.3.1 Oreo ROM and then you can flash older version

Thanx for responding. Need to know by which method i need to flash ? Fastboot with .tgz or zip file through choose update package? I tried flashing 9.5.19 zip file from choose update package it showed unable to flash old version.
Thank you.

You shouldn't use TWRP for that. Especially for downgrading. Anti-rollback protection is enabled even when the phone is unlocked and it is very dangerous when you downgrade through TWRP. My RN8P got hard bricked just because I downgraded MIUI from Android 10 to Android 9 using TWRP. You should always use fastboot mode for this because it'll warn you before bricking. This kind of hard brick is not easy to fix. Only people with authorized Mi account can unbrick your device. So, the only way to unbrick is via a service center or a friend who has got authorized Mi account.

Downgrading MIUI 11 to MIUI 10

Have someone already tried this? Downgrading from Miui 11 to Miui 10? Or from some Miui 10 to another version of Miui 10? I've the Redmi 7 Global and my bootloader is locked. I tried downgrading using the built in update app and choosing a previous package but it doesn't let me to do that. I don't know if it's possible by flashing Miui 10 in fastboot, has anyone tried? Fastboot getvar anti gives me =1 and I read somewhere that =1 means there's no problem to downgrade but I'm not sure

You will need to unlock bootloader and download miui 10 fastboot rom and remember when flashing select clean all and lock if u want to lock bootloader.

if i want to download grade from 11.0.8 to 11.0.5 without unlocking bootloader (i mean by recovery zip)

Nope Xiaomi restricted downgrading Option via updater app the only option left is fastboot

To anyone,
I just want to know if it's possible to (& how to) downgrade (WITHOUT A PC! aka using just zip file) for my Redmi 7A using the update app\tool on MIUI devices, before I update it... I'll hate to upgrade only to find bugs etc... so it's always good to know how to downgrade jic as I'm very cautious & I've never tried these things. tnx.
