Fix bricked MI 6 without wiping data - Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers

Hi all,
My MI 6 Global EU was running out of storage, after a reboot it stuck on pin, then I rebooted it again, but this time it is stuck on MI logo
My question is: Can I recover the phone without losing the data, and if not is there a way to backup the phone before restoring
My phone in unlocked
I have tried fastboot continue but i got FAILED(remote not support on security)
I have also tried to clear cache from recovery but i cant find any option to clear cache. The only available option is to wipe all data
Finally I tried to select connection to MI assistant but the phone wasn't recognized
Any ideas what to do to save the data
Thanks

[Q][Need Help] "Android is upgrading" after rom.

Hello guys, I have a problem.
I'll write what I did step by step. I have a Lt26i (4.1.2 JB) I have not changed my phone's features like upgrading version, installing rom etc. since I bought the device , Therefor I have not a lot knowledge, it is first time to do something about android. Anyway, I did root with KingoRoot. Root is completely done, there was no problem about that. After then, I unlocked the BootLoader. When I checked it , I saw "Bootloader unlock : yes." . There is no problem too. Then, I installed BusyBox to install ClockworkMod (CWM). I managed to install CWM with DoomLord's thread, with no problems. It was time to search a custom rom. I decided to install [ROM][JB .96][XS][LB/UL] Dark Honami v1 - Stock Based , I rebooted my device in CWM Recovery. First, on CWM screen I installed zip file which I had downloaded. I did not anything else. Then I selected "Reboot System Now". System was rebooted. My problem is here. There is a process box on black screen. "Android is upgrading" is written on it. I waited more than 1 hour, but my phone was not launched. I tried to turn off the phone with power button, it didn't work. I pressed volume up and power button and shutdown my device, waited a few seconds and try to turn on. That process box was displayed again , I waited sometime but it was not launched... I tried wiping cache and delvik but it didn't worked . I am not able to pass that screen , my device is not launched ... the process box is always processing.... I searched the forum but I couldn't find a solution. Please help me. Thanks.

You should have wiped the system and cache partition too. Also, did You follow the instructions given in the ROM post?

@Mirhawk Hello master, In Rom post, " reboot in cwm, install rom, reboot" is written. I did it and I did nothing else like wiping data, cache, delvik or format data , system etc. I tried wiping data after then. It didn't work. Then I wiped data, cache and delvik, and I installed the rom I downloaded. This time, My device is able to launch, I can see Sony's Terms of Use , I can press apply or deny. But there is a problem. In this screen I am recieving a error message. Keybord stopped, Contacts stopped. Xperia Home stopped. Whenever I pressed OK it appears again. Please help me.

Go to CWM, wipe system, data and cache partitions. Wiping data partition will wipe Your apps and its data. The flash the base of the ROM. Then follow instructions from ROM thread.

@Mirhawk , hey. I can't access CWM . Last night I tried wiping ,data , cache but it didn't work. Then I tried format system , format data, format cache in CWM screen. After then, I couldn't access CWM. When I tried to torn on my device, The sony logo appeared but thre was no action. It couldn't pass the sony screen. Normally, When I rebooted my phone, In "Sony text" screen, My Led was turned Blue and I pressed volume up or down then CWM opened. After I had format system, format data, format cache, I was not able to access CWM. I tried to connect it to PC, I pressed volumeDown and connected it to pc. I can connect it in flashmode and my led was turned green. But a few seconds later the phone tried turn on itself.. I tried 3 times, but each of 'em I faced the same situation. I left it for charging and went to bed. After I had gotten up , I noticed that my led was red. Red light means low on battery or have a serious system warning. It is impossible that My device has low battery because I left it for cahrging about 6 hours.. I tried to connect it to pc in flashmode but red light appeared.. A few minutes later Sony logo disappeared and The phone started to give not response. I tried carious key combination like volume up + power , volume down + power , volume up + down + power but I couldn't get any response. What should I do? Is there hope for my phone ?

Can You connect Your phone in fastboot mode? Then You could try flashing DoomKernel or the Carbon Kernel. DoomKernel has the CWM and Carbon Kernel has TWRP. The way Your phone is acting in fastboot mode, You probably don't have Fastboot and flashmode drivers. To install them, download the flashtool. Then after You install it,suppose in C drive, then go to "C:\Flashtool\drivers" and run Flashtool-drivers.exe from the folder. From the list then select fastboot, flashmode and all drivers with Xperia S written in it and install them. If You are on Windows 8, there is a different procedure to install them, google for it. Your phone currently has low battery, hence it just show the red LED. Try installing the drivers and then flashing either kernel via fastboot.

Bricked my mi max after flashing twrp, is it dm verity?

I installed twrp and bricked my mi max. I slid the slider to allow modification.
I get stuck at the mi logo on booting. It's not moving.
I can't even power off the phone. The stuck mi logo is always there.
I managed to roll back to the stock recovery.
Booting into this recovery is still possible but I don't know what to do from there since it cannot see any Tom to flash.
Booting into fast boot is possible, but the phone is not detectable on PC.it doesn't show up in device manager. It was previously detectable, before I flashed twrp through fast boot .
Is there any way to unbrick the phone without losing my internal sd card media?
No way to unbrick without losing media
Your phone is encrypted
Wipe data from twrp and flash any rom of your desire from ex-sdcard
This should unbrick the phone

I assume your device is unlocked, there's no way to unbrick you device without loosing data.
Try this step
1. Remove your battery / unplug battery & replug it again.
2. If can enter fastboot mode, and type this command on adb
Fastboot device (make sure your device is detected)
Fastboot oem edl ( your device will be blank & become qualcom)
3. If step 3 doesnt work, before connecting to PC. Connect edl pin on motherboard then connect your to PC (detect as qualcom)
4. Run Mi flash & flash your miui ROM, wait untill finish.
5. Try turn on your device.
Hope that help

Accidentally wiped out everything

Hi all,
It has been a while since I touch my ZUK and today I decided to flash a new rom but instead of wiping data, cache and dalvik. I accidentally wiped everything on the phone and when I try to flash recovery via fastboot, my device is not detected by computer. tried to install back device driver but it came to nothing. So i'm wondering what to do when all things on my phone are basically gone.
Hi, you can debrick your device with deep flash cable, is cheap or you can mod your usb cable...

SM-T835 restart endless boot loop

Last night i restarted my tablet, but continually drops into recovery mode.
I have also been in a menu which recommends 'erase app data' to boot into safe mode, in order to backup data, prior to factory reset. So i have erased app data, but now just enters recovery menu.
I'm not sure i have any debug/developer settings switched on this device, as only flashed roms on phones long time in the past, not this tablet.
So can anyone guide me to get it into safe mode to take copy of user data partitions?
Have dabbled with some adb but doesnt recognise any devices, so wondering if being blocked by some security.
Thanks in advance
John

Mi6 not wiping

After long lying my mi6 began booting only in FastBoot mode.
Normal boot only from 2 buttons. Bootloader menu not opened.
Upon attempt Factory Defaults, phone was only rebooting, but all data is saved.
I booted from bootloader image and flashed LineAge 18.1.
But phone all the same is booting only from 2 buttons and Factory Defaults only rebooting phone without deliting data.
