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)
Googluck

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
hello all, if someone can help me, i have my mi max3 with locked bootloader.
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 ?
tried to unlock bootloader via the tool, it gets stuck at 50% cannot verify phone.

Go back to Stock ROM from Custom ROM (Help)

Hello you beautiful people ,
I recently purchased a Redmi Note 5 AI and i want to unlock the bootloader and flash a custom ROM since i'm not happy with MIUI, i have read about ARB and i'm fully aware that i can't flash an older MIUI ROM with a lower ARB than what i previously had.
But what's absolutely confusing me is if i decide to change my mind, how do i go back to Stock Everything (ROM, Recovery, Bootloader) basically and be able to receive OTA's from Xiaomi normally again? (I tried to search the forums to find an answer but i couldn't find anything so please don't tell me to check the forums).

Doing that will lock the bootloader and bring back the stock recovery as well, and i'm able to get OTA updates again?

You will get option to lock the bootloader or keep the bootloader unlocked
Yes this method will bring stock recovery and you will get OTA updates.
You have to download global ROM to flash it on global variant device
Or China ROM to flash it on Chinese variant device

Ahh thank you so much ^^, sorry i keep asking way too many questions, but where do i get the option to lock the bootloader again? and if i'm on miui 10.2.20 before custom ROM, i can flash the same MIUI ROM i was on or an older one as long as it has the same ARB value?
and is there a guide on how to flash ROMS and recoveries, because i am extremely confused >.<

In MiFlash software. Select clean_all and lock option to lock the bootloader
Yes you can flash 10.2.2 or any older ROM wich has ARB value 4 (you can flash any ROM between 9.5.19 to 10.2.2)

Need help about ARB

Hi, just a little bit of confusion here about arb. I have bought rn5 pro from someone and its miui version is 10.3.1 stable which to me is the latest version available now. My question is, is it ok if i want to miflash this device to its current version 10.3.1 with clean all tick? I want to format this phone, unlock bootloader and install custom rom. Another question is, can i install latest xiaomi.eu rom which is version 10.3.1 also? Since its the same version of my current miui. Will it be safe? My last question about arb is, so it is not safe for us to downgrade the phone because of arb is it correct? But as long as its just upgrading the firmware, its just fine? Thank you
Upgrading is ok. For downgrading just make sure, that build you are trying to flash has exactly the same arb level as the one you are currently using

yes miflash will flash the rom as it left from factory. using fastboot rom and miflash to start clean is the way to go. dont need to flash this way all the time only when theres something strange in rom that cant be fixed.
yes you can install xiaomi.EU stable is 10.4 i beleive. for this you will flash in twrp.
downgrade is possible as long as the rom is the same ARB as the phone.
Step One
Turn your phone to fasboot mode
Connect your Redmi Note 5 to PC with USB
Step Two
in PC go to C:\adb\
Push shift + Right Click
select Open Command window here
In CMD write this
fastboot devices
then write
fastboot getvar anti
it should say ARB4 so you can downgrade to any ARB4 rom.

Question Flash official redmi k40 firmware on poco f3 via fastboot ?!

can you please answer me , if i can flash the Official Firmware (enhanced edition 12.5.6) of the Redmi K40 on the Poco F3 using Mi_Flash_Tool with unlocked bootloader in Fastboot Mode ?!
Thanks in advance
i cant see any issue as long as flash all & lock is not selected. Why not just install Miui vn or Eu they are based on china.
Yes you can but dont lock bootloader.

thanks for mentioning that , it is really important cause it will brick my device , but why ? they are the same phone and hardware ?
The ROM miui vn is also the enhanced edition i believe. Regarding flashing the official once via mib flash in sure it's fine as long as you don't lock bootloader with it.

If u lock bootloader after flash, the motherboard crash because not same region that he configurated. So if u let him unlock bootloader, ure device won't think about region and let u boot into ure china rom

it is not about the motherboard , it is about the bootloader because it the system check for your device and its security , it does not crash it will not boot because the bootloader cannot accept such system to run on that partition except the official one for the motherboard
So, it is mandatory to unlock the bootloader even when you are flashing stock firmware?
Just don't lock it again with other firmware?
I'm currently using Global MIUI 12.5.4 version but was thinking of flashing Mi 11x firmware.

No, It only applies here where the firmware wasn't made for the device but if you're going to flash a stock firmware that was made for your device the you don't need to unlock it
