Hello there
my Redmi Note 8T is in EDL mode after an unsuccessful update to 11.0.11.0. Is there any way to get this solved? I'm in germany, so there is no service center.
Thank you in advance! :fingers-crossed:
If you can not boot into fastboot, I mean if you stock with a turned off phone, (just like a dead phone) there is no way to recover it but using an authorized account (with is an special account possessed by Xiaomi Service Centers).
I was left with an absolutely turned off phone, and the Xiaomi service center refused to recover it due to the having no warranty paper, so I found a guy who possess the account, and he recovered it for me for 20€.
Even in internet there is guys who claim that they are able to recover your phone via TeamViewer or so, but I couldn't trust them since they ask you to pay the money (~30€) at first.
You can also buy such an account from websites like S-UNLOCK.
(At your own risk ) (price: ~35€)
Don't lose your hope.
P.S. if your phone still turns on and boot into fastboot (you can see the logo) you can easily manage to recover it by yourself.

hello sz.hatef,
thank you for your reply
I've contacted Xiaomi support and they linked me to a service center in Flensburg (Ingram Micro Services). Let's see if they can do it. I'm still in the 2-year warranty I will post an update of the result. If it's not successful, is it possible to get connected to *your* guy?

My Mi Max 3 is bricked. Wouldnt even turn on. I want to mail it to a repair center. Preferably in USA, but if not available - open to other suggestions where it will be accepted for repair from US customer. Any thoughts appreciated.
Is it still booted up as EDL mode? Download the Qualcomm driver, plug it into computer, if Windows detects your phone as Qualcomm 9008 then you can use MiFlash to flash the fastboot file (note that screen is still black on EDL mode). i was inthe same situation last week

Not really sure but I was not asked that authorization
Mine does ask for authorization....If anyone can help with 1 time access by typing in your authorized account credentials into my MiFlash via remote (no need to give out password) - please PM me.

If it's not you personally, who is helping out, but a 3rd party service, I think it would benefit everyone here if you post the link in the thread. I will check them out as well.
Just to let you guys know, I've found and used a service. My phone is fixed. They cost around $18 (conversion from foreign currency) and they replied literally 2 minutes after I placed the order. Connected via teamviewer and entered authorized account credentials into my MiFlash, for EDL authorization. Flash was successful. The whole thing took about 5 minutes. Their site is unbrick.ru

Recommend it to everyone ?
Hi all stupidity darwin for me today
I bought the phone from Ebay , it booted on miui unlocked so I said cool in my head, I went ahead and flashed twrp it said encrypted, I said format and I flashed Xiaomi.eu on it .
Now I end up with a locked bootloader, no access to twrp don't know why. Access to fast fastboot but can't use it. Apparently I can use fast boot to go to edl but I can't flash Chinese roms through it I'm a bit confused ... I'm using Samsung devices for the moment and my last Xiaomi devices was redmi 3 (so the security was really relax) . So what can I try ?

reunlock the bootloader, if you cant unlock it send it back to the ebay seller and ask them to reunlock it
I ended up unbricking it but it was really a pain, so here is what I did,
I had to dismantle it, shortcut the pins two pins to enter in EDL mode (Multiple articles on the web to do it, https://www.mobilerdx.com/2018/09/xiaomi-redmi-6-pro-test-point-boot-into-edl-9008-mode.html)
I tried Mi-Flash, had to have an authenticated mi-account, which nearly nobody have.
So I searched on miui forum and a lot of people are blocked and are sending desperate messages to Xiaomi and their service centers.
A modo on the forum wrote that a Vietnamese guru can take control of your PC and use his account trough TeamViewer, that smelled like a big joke, but I was enough desperate to test.... AND IT worked.
So SUCCESS (for 25$ super expensive, here is the page --> https://www.facebook.com/SUnlockGlobal/ ) but try everything before because multiple brick can be fixed with other ways.
I thing that,it is really revolting to block the emergency download mode. It isn't normal to block it for a "geek's friendly" brand or for any brands because independent technicians can't unbrick devices...

Hello,
I bricked my redmi note 8 pro (global) with an older firmware version.
unfortunately the result is the mobile does not start anymore, nor in fastboot nor mode recovery. for this i find one solution is a special account xiaomi autorized to flash with sp flashtool.
Please Is there anyone who can help me for the special xiaomi account?

So i got stuck :crying::crying::crying:

I don't think rooted and bricked phones are covered even if you had after sales service... Your best bet is what the guy above me mentioned.

Since the back cover is not opened, yes it's covered. I talked to Mi store rep to be confirmed. They know what we did, they know how to fix.

He's corrected. He is sales, not be able to fix it. I paid $29US on S-UNLOCK website, and their "Technician" came via teamviewer and opened SP flash, then second person, I can guess he's Chinese, logged on to input service account and my phone is unbricked.

but seems need special account to flash rom.
so i havenot to try and buy EDL cable.
if you success. please teach me.
Hey guys,
Seems I'm not the only one that has bricked his device accidentally xD
In my case, I was flashing an update of xiaomi.eu when the installation failed. I tried rebooting to recovery in order to try again flashing, but I couldn't access my recovery again.
Since then, it boots directly to EDL, without the need to do testpoint.
If anyone wants to manually boot into EDL via testpoint, this video may help you:
(personally, I haven't opened my phone as I don't have the proper tools & experience for that. Even more, do NOT open your device. Otherwise, say "goodbye" to your warranty.)
I see no logo, I cannot reach fastboot nor nothing.
I have tried to flash using MiFlash, and it detects the device!
You have to download a fastboot package, not a recovery package (see mifirm.net).
I've tried with MIUI 12 (both Q and R) fastboot packages and I get weird Sahara errors.
With a MIUI 11 fastboot package, that error is gone. However, I cannot procceed to install as it's forbidden for common users like us to flash our phones in EDL mode. So it says to me that my Mi account is not authorized for this opperation.
My advice (it's what I'm going to do) is to contact to your seller, or directly to Xiaomi, and try to manage the warranty. If you were on MIUI (like me), we should be protected by the warranty. If not, you'll have to finance your reparation.
This turns me off intensely, as EDL should be totally free for us. In my old LG G4, I've flashed in EDL via QFIL many times, and it's not that risky as long as you have the proper files (which we have). In this way, Xiaomi is generating a bad fame & more work to their reparation centers, as we will have to send our hard-bricked phones there.
I've seen also some online services that either sells authorized Mi accounts for EDL, or that log in with a verified Mi account in your PC via TeamViewer to bypass that verification.
Sincerly, I'm not thinking in paying 30$ for something that should me free for us, so I cannot recommend this for now...
I will update my situation in future posts here. Until I get my K30 5G back with live, my development for this device will be stopped.
Good luck to everyone!

It will ve very interesting to know the outcome of your problem.
It could very possibly be a solution in case any more of us gets stuck in EDL.
¡Buena suerte!

Warranty doesn't protect me in Spain as this phone is only sold officially in China...
I could either contact my eBay seller or contact with someone of those authorized EDL accounts.
I finally had to contact a man with an authorized account, and pay my own reparation (25€).
Idk if it's allowed in xda to share the TG nickname of that man as it can be considered as "spam" of a service.
Talk me to TG if you wanna know more details.
But yes guys, we still have a solution to our bricked phones! Mine revived in 15 minutes

Mine is not bricked. I am glad to see that you found a solution for not much money.
We all know the risk we face when buying China only phones, but the price for the performance is always very tempting.

Hello, does anyone know if it is possible to reflash a bricked Mi 10T Lite. It boots into Fastboot mode, but bootloader is locked.
That was be very hard. Firs way it to risk 10,15e and go to mi community ,I can give you person who can flash your ROM with authorized account..
The other way is to open back cover and EDL point. To be able to get connection between PC and Mi flash tools..
Try to do some research and in mean while I will try find this contract with authorized and send you Pm.
The third thing is service centar but I did recommended you.. they will literally restore you phone and in the end they will do.
I bad have bad experience.
So I seat ,two weeks exploring and if you read carefully,you will learn and fix your phone.
TRU
ALL YOU NEED TO READ CAREFULLY AND WRITE DOWN IMPORTANT THINGS.
GOOD LOCK!
