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

Guys , i brought mi max new one , and i managed to sign in with Google account but i added fingerprint and 4 digits pin pattern , suddenly its not taking my pattern and i'am pretty sure its correct . I might did something wrong , cant remember !! I didn't add mi account yet ! .. i cant access my phone any way ! .. i tried to wipe factory reset throw recovery . But it seems no recovery at all . Only usb cable with phone screen . Tried to enter edl screen to use miflash but fail and asking for unlocking the phone !.
Any suggestions ???
I really need help . I am out of country for the next 30 days on vacation i cant go to the dealer and i already sold my old phone ! .iam stuck with my laptop and disabled screen for 119min !!
Any one ??
Did you get code unlock?, I think that EDL mode is disabled with locked bootloader by usual way, only with a DFC or forcing testpoint (unnecessary for now), you can give a try with this thread about install TWRP in locked bootloader https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-max/how-to/guide-install-global-miui8-root-t3435594, if you entered in your google account here you have other possible way https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Android+Device+Manager+-+Bypass+Screen+Lock+on+any+Android+Device/34600
do a full fastboot flash via mi flash tool , no bootloader unlocking needed! just download fastboot file from mi forum (latest one)
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".
best, alastair
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!
Hello all,
Hope that everyone will be safe and healthy.
I have bricked my Realme 3 RMX1821 and would be grateful for any help to get it working back again.
Event Summary: I unlocked its bootloader with the help of Realme Tool and then installed TWRP recovery and Magisk. All worked fine. Later on due to some reasons I uninstalled Magisk and then attempted to Lock the bootloader with TWRP installed.
Immediately after the bootloader was locked my phone was rebooted and a warning screen appeared saying “Charging Overtime”. Now I tried to turn off the phone and restarted it with Volume Down button pressed. Still the same screen with an additional message in the corner saying “Recovery Mode”. Under both the cases no other button works and I have to power it off.
Support centers are all closed due to current virus issues and I need this phone really badly.
Will be grateful if someone may help me out.
Thanks!
You should never lock your bootloader with custom recovery installed
Try unlock bootloader using fastboot

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.
https://en.miui.com/unlock/
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
