hi guys...
this phone is stock with locked bootloader and usb debugging is not enabled
it wont go beyond mi logo and three dots (progress bar) at the bottom at the time of boot...
here's what i've tried so far
booted to recovery and tried to connect to MI assistant using mi pc suite... doesn't work
tried flashing twrp... but bootloader is locked
tried to boot twrp through fastboot... it gives a message "system is destroyed"!.... but nothing happens and everything is same after reboot
i can wait for xiomi auth. code if needed... but how to unlock bootloader if system wont load at all?
is there any workaround?
i NEED to copy data (many important pics that have not been backed up anywhere!) and frankly dont care if device is torn apart... just need the data!
please help!

Hey guys,
so this my problem:
I got the Mix 2 with the Chinese ROM. With the XiaoMiTool by Francesco Tescari I updated to the Global ROM V9.1.2.0 because I didn't want to wait to unlock the bootloader. This worked but I only had the choice to set China as my region. Since this was a common problem with updating the ROM without unlocking the phone I unlocked it and waited for 3 days to unlock.
Today I installed TWRP and installed the ROM xiaomi.eu_multi_MIMix2_7.11.16_v9-7.1. After this I was stuck with the Mi bootup logo. In TWRP I deleted cache, system, data. This worked EXCEPT for system. I thought updating TWRP to the newest version would help solve this issue. But since I'm new to this I didn't update it within TWRP but just installed the newer version via the commandfastboot flash recovery twrp.img. The result is that I can not get in recovery mode anymore. The only option is fastboot mode or the regular Mi logo endless boot.
What I tried so far: EDL flash method via adb/MiFlash but both don't work. The XiaoMiTool won't work too. The Mi PC Suite won't recognise the phone. When I use the edl.cmd the phone will go black for 2-3s and then return to fastboot.
I guess the problem at this point is that usb debugging is not turned on since TWRP installed the EU ROM and I could never get in it to enable the debug mode.
I couldn't find a solution to solve the boot up problem and can't seem to install/flash a new ROM at this point.
So what can I do? Do I need that special usb cable? Will the EDL points help me?
Maybe/Hopefully you can help me out.
EDIT:
When I turn on the phone it will directly go into fastboot mode. A normal start is not possible anymore?!...
EDIT 2:
I am now running the latest Global Rom this guide did it for me: en.miui. com/thread-1351514-1-1. html
Good to hear you got it up and running.

hey - how did you get mi unlock to work? im having this problem: mi unlock tool 2.3.803.10. it won't show the mi mix 2 as connected with xiaomi drivers, only with google drivers it will show as connected and then let me click unlock. however, it stops at 50% and shows error "couldnt verify device unkown error (-1)". ive logged on to i.mi.com and located the device through find device. does anyone have any pointers how i can unlock, because i want to switch to global dev rom and miui updater wont let me update through system with error "android version is different".

Hi all! I ask your help! I have Moto z2 Force on 8.0 Oreo and I installed custom recovery twrp-3.2.1-1-nash.img and foolishly chose Slot-B and then I reboot the phone. Now when connected to a computer, it is defined as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 . How can I bring it back to life?! Help please! :crying:
After many attempts, it was possible to flash blankflash_from_NDX26.183-15_17. Phone reboot in fastboot and then full flash stock firmware.

This happened to me on t-mobile yesterday and I managed to solve it by downloading this: (T-Mobile only) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fM5KLheeMYcs3yF7InOzHq6yGCOmrrbk/view
Extract the zip and while your phone is connected to your pc and booted in bootloader mode, run flash_all.bat, boot (don't flash) TWRP, install TWRP with the TWRP zip found here: https://dl.twrp.me/nash/twrp-installer-nash-3.2.1-1.zip.html
Then reboot to your newly installed TWRP recovery, factory reset, flash rom, reboot bootloader and run "fastboot -w".
After that you should boot up fine. Fastboot -w might not be necessary but I had to do it, otherwise I would boot but I would get an error message "android.process.media has stopped" without it.
Hello Friend!
Do you know if there is a solution for Moto Z2 Play? The update for Android 8 came automatically and I accepted. After a few days, he caught up and got into HardBrick! Neither the BootLoader options (power + volume (-)) are working !!
When I put it in the charger it will flash a white LED
Sorry, I'm using Google Translate

If its get detect as QHUSB_BULK in conputer and installing Qualcomm drivers get it to Qh_usbloader 9008 under COMports then theres no way ti revive ur phone. Theres no Blank Flash files yet available for Moto Z2 Play
Hello there, need help here.
I have a Redmi 5a variant MCG3B with locked bootloader. I've been trying to reflash this thing back up through EDL mode, but it just won't boot pass MI logo. It flashed successfully without any hiccups. When I tried to boot it up, it just showed MI logo and then blank black screen, nothing. Tried latest and older MIUI Global fastboot ROM, still the same.
It can still get into fastboot, but since bootloader is still locked, I can't do anything from there. Or can I?
Been trying to google things up but so far nothing. Anyone have any solution? Thanks before.
PS. Btw, sorry for the typo in the thread's title. I mean 'even'

And flash with global rom not recovery rom
Sent from my riva using XDA Labs
hello guys. after a update my redmi note 8 pro (global) cannot boot. i can only get on fastboot but i never open my bootloader. i cannot get to recovery mode with vol up + power no matter how hard i try. what can i do? i cannot flash from mitool with locked bootloader i guess cause i get a stupid error.
Unlock the bootloader first.

It's pretty easy to fix if you can enter into fastboot mode but in my case situation is very different my device is completely dead/hard brick just notification light blinks, & only the solution is to get the MI Authorized Account & i don't have :crying: if Someone can help me please help
try with EDL mode ..
you can flash without unlock bootloader
it only works if you are actually updating from your own device and not by manual updating because you chose the MIUI ROM file incorrectly
Hey / Dear XDA Community,
i have a huge problem.
I change the pattern while im drunken and forgot it.
The only option on this pattern menu to unlock is to delete all user data.
My backup files on mi cloud are not completely and i need only my pictures on phone.
I have last offical rom with android 9 and miui 11 from spring 2020.
My bootloader is locked and usb debugging is disable.
The offical recovery won't boot and the only access is the fastboot. (volume down + power = fastboot, volume up + power = recovery? still bootloop mi logo)
But with locked phone is flashing not possible and unlocking with the offical mi unlock tool erase the user data =(
The only thing is to flash a new recovery but not with a locked bootloader.
Have anyone ideas that helps me ?
Many thanks to all who have constructive answers.
Regards Falk
Hey XDA,
i have solved the problem with EDL Mode and Mi Flash Tool.
The pick-able button "save user data - without erase" don't work in this mode.
All my userdata are lost but i have my phone back, that's bad and nice likewise too.
Thanks to all who read and thinking about to help me.
With best regards
Falk
