RN8P not booting to system - Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers

I have RN8P India version
not rooted
no custom recovery added
not unlocked
basically it is factory setup
Today i felt device has slowed down so restarted it but after restart device is stuck at default recovery
where it asked for reboot then i select reboot to system and then it brings up image with redmi note 8 pro splash screen and again goes back to initial menu where it asks for reboot to syste,
not sure what is going on
nothing has changed actually on system
mi pc suite is also not detencing device, however that seem to be common issue
fastboot and adb identified device, however adb comes up when i connect for mi suite and it gets connected as sideload so can't do much there
any suggestion on how to get device back up and running?

Hi, i have used MiFlash (version MiFlash20180528), download the .tgz rom for your device here
Extract the .tgz
Go in fastboot (vol down+power)
(On miflash) Select the folder just extracted, Click refresh when smartphone connected to the computer.
(If MiFlash show you some error, you need to create a folder 'log' on the folder of MiFlash)
And click Flash.
It's worked for me with bootloop of Redmi screen.
You will loose all data.

Don't do this if you don't want to have your phone baseband completely removed meaning no sim card function at all. I did exactly this when trying to install stock room and it deleted my baseband. Luckily I had made a backup a month before that. I restored it from the backup and the phone (sim card) started working again.
Anyways, back to the original issue. So you're saying your phone isn't recognized in fastboot? When I wipe system and data and then go into fastboot and enter "fastboot devices" it shows nothing but I can still flash files into the phone. I'm guessing this is because the phone has no 'name' due to the system wiping. So try going into fastboot on your phone, connect it to PC and open adb, and then enter the command 'fastboot flash recovery twrp.img' (download the latest version of TWRP for Lenovo P2 and rename it to twrp).
If then you are able to enter TWRP after rebooting, download stock Lenovo P2 ROM and flash it.

How did you make backup
i have soled it, i will edit the post, thanks for all the help

Flashed wrong kernel.

I flashed a wrong boot.img in my honor 7x (BND Al-10) using fastboot and since then, even TWRP isn't accessable. I flashed it, thinking the ROM I'm installed doesn't have anything for the boot partition and that's why isn't booting it (Not even showing up the boot animation). I was running on EMUI 8 earlier and shows an exclaimination mark upon trying to access TWRP (With options at the bottom). Fastboot and stock recovery are still accessable. How to revive this thing now? I've tried various methods, but all of them require TWRP.
Follow this post..https://www.google.co.in/amp/s/foru...pment/oreo-twrp-complete-backup-t3764500/amp/
In short
1. Downlod the two files in that post
2. Connec mobile to PC. Enable usb deuging
3. Install ADB in PC.
4. Copy the two twrp files into the adbfolder.
5. Flash twrp img mount and then flash twrp complete backup
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk file 1
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk fle 2
6. Reboot
To enter twrp..press power plus volumeup onstartup
I made the mistake of leaving the usb lead plugged in when rebooting to recovery, it will not you into emui Erecovery
If you can get into fastboot it's fixable

Mine is fixed! Just download service ROM for honor 7x. Extract the zip and copy the update.app file ''to your phone's SD Card!'' create a folder named 'dload' and put that file in it.
Shut down your device, remove any sort of USB. Press all three buttons. It'll install the stock EMUI.

MIUI 10 Update from China 10.0.6.0 OEDCNFH to Global 10.0.1.0 OEDMIFH problems

Really need help!
I successfully unlocked my Mi Max 3 using the official process. 14 day wait. No issues...booted back into MIUI 10' restored backup from MiCloud and was back to normal, except now it showed "unlocked" on startup screen.
It was running CN MIUI 10 V10.0.6.0 OEDCNFH
I had been reading that it was possible to flash the device with the global version of the ROM
I had several Google related issues with the Chinese ROM so I downloaded the MiFlash tool (2018.5.28.0), got the ROM from here: https://xiaomifirmware.com/roms/latest-official-miui-roms-for-xiaomi-mi-max-3/
and tried to flash it with Global 10.0.1.0 OEDMIFH
Result was the error "flash crclist error"
screenshot here
https://1drv.ms/u/s!ArN9mSbbMVT8gohpA03ob7X2FhjspQ
After this, the device is stuck in Fastboot mode and seems to no longer have a bootable ROM. Booting into recovery mode with vol up + power and restarting that way also just boots back into Fastboot.
I downloaded the Fastboot version of the ROM the phone was originally running 10.0.6.0 OEDCNFH and tried to flash that.
It also failed with the same error.
This user had the same issue with a Mi8:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-8/help/failed-to-install-global-rom-via-mi-t3851636
The thread did not help me. There seems to be almost nothing related to this issue "flash crclist error" on XDA
My phone is not bootable now. No idea what to try next, I am a total novice in this area. I have since been reading about Anti Rollback Protection, I just don't know if this has anything to do with my issue. My device is not dead....it is booting into Fastboot, and I can still see it in MiFlash. If anyone could advise me I would be very grateful.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-max-3/how-to/to-youre-stuck-edl-mode-black-screen-t3837846/page2
See my post there on page 2. It should fix your issue.
The path of the rom seems too long.
Create a new folder at the root of your C drive and give it a name without spaces, move all the contents of the extracted rom to that folder and try to flash again
opasha - thanks for reply

Hi and thank you for responding to my question.
I have tried the steps in your thread as follows:
1) Download Global Stable fastboot 10.0.1.0 from this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-...-t3827503/amp/
2) Open MiFlashTool and navigate to 10.0.1.0 fastboot rom. At the bottom select 'Clean All Only' (do NOT select clean all and lock).
3) Hold power, volume up and volume down together for 10 seconds after plugging into PC. Your pc should detect your phone in EDL mode. Hit REFRESH button at the top of MiFlashTool and it will show up as COM XX or XXX for your USB connection. Try whichever USB port works. Then hit refresh. Then click Flash.
When I try step 3, what you describe does not seem to be the behaviour I am seeing. If I hold volume up + volume down + power simultaneously for 10 seconds, the device reboots straight back into the Fastboot screen (the one with the bunny). Is this normal? If not, what screen should be displayed on the device? There is no sign of MiFlash tool detecting the device differently at this point (COM XX or XXX)
When I refresh MiFlash it detects the device as pictured:
https://1drv.ms/u/s!ArN9mSbbMVT8gpEJOYos6rGjNSM8vQ
If I flash it, it produces the same "flash crclist error" pictured here:
https://1drv.ms/u/s!ArN9mSbbMVT8gpEIec-cB8pUMAVqLg
FYI the only way I can get the device to start in anything other than the Fastboot screen is to hold down the VOLUME UP key + power. This boots it into the Mi-Recovery 3.0 screen where I can see the Main Menu with 3 buttons: Reboot - Wipe Data - Connect with MiAssistant
Reboot goes back to Fastboot
Wipe Data also just reboots into Fastboot.
Connect with MiAssistant prompts to connect to Mi PC suite with diagram of device + USB cable + URL (I tried this but PC suite (version 3.2.1.3111_2717) does not recognise my device....this was also the case when the phone was working normally). If I don't try to connect with USB cable at this point it times out after about 30 seconds and boots back into the Fastboot screen.
The remaining steps in your thread did not seem to apply after step 3 failed.
No idea what to do. I posted this on MIUI forums too. Some people are suggesting I use ADB and install TWRP but I would need an idiots guide, I don't have any experience with either and would have no idea what I was doing....and I'm finding it extremely difficult to unearth anything useful from the **vast** number of Android related sites and forums relating to ROMs etc. For example, I can't find anything helpful about "flash crclist error". Maybe I should ask Xiaomi support?
At this point I just need to get *any* working ROM onto the device. I would not have unlocked it and attempted the switch from Chinese to Global if I hadn't read so much advice that this could be done very simply and without issues as long as the bootloader was unlocked. If you have any other advice for me please let me know!
Thanks again.

Sorry, didn't realize this was new to you. Your fastboot mode is fine. Ignore my step 3 (my apologies for not clarifying since this step is not needed for you since your phone is in fastboot). All you need to do is have your phone flash this version of miui global through Miflash Tool. Let it reboot on its own.
can not flash ROM

I can not flash the ROM Global Stable fastboot 10.0.1.0 (or any other ROM I have tried)
In the MiFlash tool I get the error "flash crclist error" as I have tried to explain in my previous posts.

You're not extracting properly. Use 7zip. Then extract the folder and point Miflash to this extracted folder. - make sure inside this folder there are simply files and no other single folders - single folders within single folders usually means you have to extract again.
Just run the damn flash-all.bat for God sake...
SOLVED thank you!

You were right. I extracted using 7Zip instead of Winzip. Pointed MiFlash at the extracted folder. 10.0.1.0 Global flashed successfully.
**HUGE** thanks to you for your replies and help. Painful learning curve for me. Very happy to get my phone working again, this time with the ROM I wanted.
Thanks again
best regards
so im on the same version but xiaomi.eu... 10.0.6.0 can i go downgrade that global? using same method?
flashed over x.eu 10.0.6.0 with Global 10.0.1.0 using Miflash with fastboot rom, it rebooted into recovery screen saying "this version cannot be installed on this device"...at this point i started crying lol.
Plugged into mi suite to see if i could recover back to original china rom it shipped with, discovered the BL was locked again, unlocked again via mi tool and hey presto, it booted up with fully working Global rom!
I'm now in a good place.

Need little bit help with bricked Note 8 Pro

Hi everyone,
I got Chinese version Note 8 Pro from Mi official store and unlocked bootloader after 7 days.
I downloaded Global MIUI 11 ROM via official miui download link, "ifelixit+FLASHER+TOOLKIT+Begonia" and installed ADB drivers etc.
After run ifelixit+FLASHER+TOOLKIT+Begonia.bat and pick 1, it installed recovery, then I'm able to boot into TWRP, and then I installed global rom from there, meanwhile wiped everything in it as I don't need China version rom. Phone reboot well and new global rom works great.
Then I try to install Magisk, I noticed recovery seems be restored to original, no worries, I re-run ifelixit+FLASHER+TOOLKIT+Begonia.bat and pick 1 to install TWRP again. Whatever I did, I cannot get TWRP back, when I hold power/+, it keep blank and will restart, but if I don't hold them, it can get into the system.
My first question is: 1. At this stage, is recovery crash already?
I didn't think too much and I get into system, install Magisk manager, let it to patch boot.img, I then use following command in fastboot mode
fastboot flash boot boot_patch.img
After I finished, I noticed maybe I can do TWRP here as well, then I also input
fastboot flash boot TWRP.img
After reboot, the phone is dead....No fastboot, NO recovery, no vibration. exactly described as here

3. Is fastboot dead because I installed recovery into boot via fastboot flash boot TWRP.img?
Thanks for your time and appreciated for any knowledgeable reply.
Flash your original boot.img for your original firmware or just download the xiaomitoolV2 and flash it that way. I see a lot of people flashing stock firmware using TWRP. Hence the v2 tool only works if your phone still fully boots. NOTE do not flash stock FW or UPDATE using TWRP you will brick the device. Chances are your FW didn't flash and just ADB CMD fatsboot flash boot ( then set BOOT.IMG ) in the CMD and get the devices booting again. Then use the V2 tool to flash the global firmware get that to stick then use the ifelixit tool to flash recovery once in recovery go advanced file mgr system-root at the bottom delete boot P then close AVB 2.0 then hit the install root button SU - magisk 19.4 will be installed. no need to wipe or format the phone ( DON'T FORGET TO WIPE CACHE & DALVIC.

Remove the back off the phone and disconnect the battery for 5 min just to be sure hold the power button to clear all power left in the phone. Main objective is to get useage again fastboot or recovery. If you get recovery sideload your boot img and flash it on the next reboot twrp will be overridden.

Thanks. Currently my phone doesn't have reboot, no recovery, purely blank on screen, only power led shows when connecting via USB. In this situation, must open back case to disconnect the battery? I heard about it's free to go back to mi store and re flash it back. To open back case it won't have warranty anymore. Struggling....

I also have two bricked phones note 8 pro with no recovery, only white led shows when connecting via USB.
First bricked with TWRP and then flashed with false boot.img, second is bricked with OrangeFox-Unofficial-begonia.img.
I was open back case and disconnect the battery, stay 3 days but nothing working to reboot to fastboot or recovery.
Also I have already tried with short circuit test point to EDL mode but phone is still dead. I have downloaded many xiaomi and other tools and firmwares, installed all available usb drivers and reading all internet forums.
Please help!

Hello,
I think I did the same error, flashing a wrong boot.img...
I tell you if I manage to do something.
hello, the solution to the problem is the battery is completely discharged until the device stops responding to any attempts to start using the key combination. unless you tried to flash a fastboot partition. the solution works after hard bricking after trying to upload incompatible twrp or other rom (I uploaded Chinese twrp on eu rom). ok, we start:
1. holding vol - and power plug in the usb cable (the buttons are released when the notification LED changes from very bright for a moment to slightly dimmed)
2. you will see the long unseen battery symbol with a lightning inside (i.e. a completely discharged battery, the charge status will begin to show the percentage)
3. Turn off the USB cable at 3 percent.
4. now an important thing - you need to start the phone only trying to enter the fastboot mode otherwise the phone will start to boot the system and get stuck again and you will have to unload it again
5. you will finally enter the fastboot , using only the software from xiaomi or xiaomi flash and fastboot rom
I succeeded after 2 weeks of waiting for it to discharge ...
I copied this tutorial from this partner klocek80 , and it worked perfectly

I'm with you. The boot image has error and when MTK realize it has something wrong it will NOT enter into fastboot. The only way to fix this is too use SP Flash Tool for deep flash. Mi store uses this way as well to fix the issue.
Try this:

I didn`t find any background on your issue, just something like you actually have a device with white led light blinking.
I read this thread before (yes, some weeks ago) this happened to me yesterday https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-8-pro/how-to/guide-unlock-note-8-pro-authorised-t4168805 the short story is that I were trying to return to Miui 12 after of using some custom ROMs and something in the flashing process failed I mean it was an incomplete flashing and I assumed that most probably just the bootloader partition was damaged. The whole important fact in this situation is that you have yet available fastboot mode but like the splash partition with its image was gone I couldn `t see it and I were anyway in fastboot mode so I could flash the proper files to "unbrik" it. (my device is unlocked)
What you should try is connect it with PC while you`re pressing the volume down, enter to adb/fastboot environment and type fastboot commands to see if device is recogniced, you don`t have to hear constant reboot sounds or in this case press the power button simulating that you are powering off device.

Id like to beg for help with rooting my RN 8 Pro

Basically I have rooted my old Redmi Note 4 but that was past guarantee so I did not care that much.
My current RN 8 Pro is still 1 year in guarantee so I literally do not have the balls to do it on my own.
Is there any good soul who would help me out with rooting it, pretty please? Thanks very much in advance
btw. I do know stuff about Unlocking Boot Loader, installing TWRP trough Command Window and Flashing Magisk...that should be potentially enough but as I said above no balls and do not want to F things up and brick it.

A great guide is here :3
Not sure you need my help for that but yeah if ya run into any problems, ill be here to help ya
Ty for responding. I read that but Im still not sure about what TWRP use on my phone (im not sure if i have to use special one or just latest version) and because I want to only root my phone Im also not sure, if I need to get a different ROM or I can do that on this STOCK ONE I have.
I bought my RN 8 Pro in EU. Im gonna try to give you more information about my phone, if you would be able to link me TWRP what I need and other files to root it...that would be awesome (its not like i cant read or im lazy f**k, its more like i dont want to F things up).

Hello once again...I might need some help
I was following these steps but after flashing this TWRP I cant enter into the TWRP...so far Ive tried holding power button then pressing Volume +; holding power button and then holding Volume+; even holding them both but still without any result...any chance you might help me here, please?
*EDIT: Im flashing stock ROM
Go to the system then do
adb reboot recovery
I flashed TWRP recovery once again, then I went for "adb reboot recovery". This is what happened after I used "adb reboot recovery" (attached picture). There is no sign about TWRP. What am I doing wrong? I literally followed the guide the flash of the recovery TWRP is successful. Is there any chance that Im flashing wrong TWRP recovery? Or that Im doing it on stock ROM? Usually its problem between chair and keyboard but I dont know :-/.
So Ive tried to boot TWRP through after flashing it with "fastboot boot twrp.img". It went through but it booted like normal so I ended up in system like when you turn on your phone normally.
Anybody, anything please?

First: what version of miui?
If you're on miui 12.5 this method will cause reboot.
If your phone is < 12.0.X its okay.
It looks like flashing recovery worked.
Instead of trying to adb reboot recovery after flashing recovery try this:
- When it's done, Remove cable and Hold Power + Vol. Up when phone starts turning on leave the power button but keep pressing Vol. UP until TWRP splash Screen shows up.

I was already trying that, if I do it how you typed the screen is gonna keep blinking with MIUI logo.
I was looking for the answers and I found smth about "fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img" to disable android verified boot, but dunno if its my case on stock ROM or not.

First you need to enter recovery, i think you didn't flash boot.
Follow the method below exactly.
Original post and files can be found here.
If error occurs..
1. Go to Minimal ADB and Fastboot in C: of your PC. Open Fastboot folder and Press Shift+Right Click and Select Open Command Window Here at the CMD type fastboot devices and enter (check if it's recognized the device).
2. Enter the following commands: fastboot flash boot boot.img and Enter then fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and Enter. We have flashed clean boot and TWRP.
3. Disconnect the phone from the PC, hold the Power button as the screen goes blank immediately hold Volume + the TWRP splash screen will appear and disappear still hold the button when the TWRP splash screen appears a second time release Volume +. The recovery_fromboot.p file is already deleted earlier.
5. Go to Mount in TWRP check data, system, vendor, nvdata and now you can decrypt DATA by formatting in TWRP Wipe-Fotmat Data, write yes and swipe.
6. Disconnect the phone from the PC, hold the Power button as the screen goes blank immediately hold Volume + the TWRP splash screen will appear and disappear still hold the button when the TWRP splash screen appears a second time release Volume +. If Chinese language change to English. If TWRP will ask you the password (this means that there is DATA encryption)click on CANCEL and get to the main screen.
We go to the mount, put check on data, system, vendor, nvdata and MicroSD card (if the phone has a memory card).
Press home to return to the main screen Choose Advanced-File Manager item >system_root / system / folder at the bottom there is a recovery_fromboot.p file delete it.
Go back to Advanced and select Close AVB2.0 and flash the archive with a swipe to the right.
Again, we go along the Advanced-File Manager path in the root, look for the supersu folder in it, select the SuperSu_installer.zip fileand flash it with a swipe to the right. This is an archive from Magisk_19.4 it will patch boot. The firmware of this archive should go WITHOUT a single error, all lines should be white and at the end of DONE. If everything was done without errors in the TWRP select the Reboot-System. The first boot will be a little long and Don't Panic when boot up check the Magisk Manager>Settings>Update Settings>Stable Channel.
I dont have any boot.img in my folder so I cant flash the boot.img. Having stock ROM and I have no clue where to get it.
My current ROM is MIUI Global 12.0.5; Stable 12.05.0 (QGGEUXM) and I think I just found it here on this link:
https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/begonia/stable/V12.0.5.0.QGGEUXM/
Can anybody experience confirm that Im suppose to copy out the boot.img out of it and then copy&paste it into Minimal ADB and Fastboot in C: of my PC and then going for the "fastboot flash boot boot.img" as the last msg from Donkyshot says?
Tyvm
Id appreciate any help
Everything I did try is above.

Thanks. I used the boot.img and I was following the guide which "donkyshot" sent. But I got stucked right after I did those commands in command Window. I disconnected the phone went for the power button hold and then when it was blank I stopped holding power button and I started holding the Volume+ button. The phone was bootlooped on Xiaomi logo...I was waiting several times but nothing. At the end I had to flash the phone with stock ROM I downloaded through MiFlash...I really dont know what I was doing wrong.
