Hi,
I went into TWRP and used ADB sideload to update vendor firmware and it crashed midway. Now, the phone will only restart to EDL mode (black screen but I see it in device manager).
I tried using MiFlashTool to flash the stock firmware back to the device, but apparently you need to be authorized by Xiaomi to do that. My bootloader was already unlocked, but that's not sufficient I think.
How bricked is my phone? Can I restart it to fastboot or is fastboot toasted?
EDIT: I have the global Mi 9 SE version

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.

That happens if you have a modified kernel and a relocked bootloader. Strange, that miflash will not recognize your phone... But it seems that you are not in fastboot mode - so go again to fastboot and
1. Try to reunlock your bootloader with
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
-> then your problem should be solved!
2. If you can´t reopen your bootloader, you need to enter edl. Here you need to search in the help forum!

Hi, I have an issue I have bricked my a2 lite and now is in permanent EDL mode. I cant go to Fastboot and the display is black. Only when I connect the battery do I have the LED flashing and then stops. I can hear the Windows sound when I connect the cable with my laptop. I tried flashing with Miflash nut it keeps on "flashing" process all the time and just counts. Yesterday I left it there for over 5h and still going
Anyone can help? I guess I have flashed the wrong firmware. And I cant seems to find a new one that works.
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
Hi I'm new to XDA
Last Saturday I think I bricked my mi 11x
I just flashed miui elite rom it was installed suspiciously on orange fox, instead of installing as 2 files (ticked flash recovery after installing rom) it installed as on file like a firmware zip took only 20 seconds to flash after that I rebooted to recovery and it never booted just black screen tried to boot into fastboot screen is still off but fastboot is detecting same for recovery screen is still black but recovery is working I'm noob to this and don't know what to do so went to mi service center they tried to flash rom through edl mode device is detecting on edl mode but they can't complete the flashing process some kind of error is popping while its about to complete flash. even authorised service centre can't unbrick Device through edl is it hardware defect? Did I fckd up ufs or ram?
Bootloader unlocked
Device is recognised in fastboot but screen is black
Device is recognised In recovery still screen is black
Edl mode working but service center is unable to complete flashing some kind of error is preventing from completing flashing process.
technicians in Service centre said it must be the file that I flashed previously is preventing edl flash process
Did you try "fastboot flash boot boot.img" while in fastboot mode? Note the "boot.img" must be the one compatible with the OS installed on the phone.
Did you try flashing official ROM through miflash?

I just straight went to mi service center they tried edl flashing but ended up unsuccessful. Will miflash do any better because edl was failed for some reason note that they used authorised account for edl

There's no harm in trying.
