I followed the guide on how to unbrick defy but when install rsd lite it wont show my phone . Had it in bootloader plus got the right drivers for it (64 bit) but still wont detect it. Help please!
I also never could get the phone to appear with RSDLite on Windows 7 64bit or Windows XP. The only solution I could find was to flash the firmware to the phone in Linux using SBF_Flash.x. I found SBF_Flash.x on a post from a German Defy forum shown on the attached link. SBF Flash worked instantly without any hassle compared to RSDLite. I am attaching the SBF_Flash.x.zip to this post, so you can give it a try.
1) Download SBF_Flash.x.zip and extract SBF_Flash.x to the same folder/location as the .sbf file that you want to flash.
2) Restart your computer and boot up from Linux.
3) Load up file manager in Linux and locate the SBF_Flash.x and .sbf files then you need to drag those files to your desktop.
4) open up Terminal
5) In Terminal type below
6) su
7) cd Desktop
8) Turn your phone on in bootloader mode and connect the USB cable up to your computer and phone
9) ./sbf_flash.x FileName.sbf
For example, flashing UK 2.2.1 .sbf firmware
./sbf_flash.x JRDNEM_U3_2.21.0_SIGNED_UCAJRDNEMARAB1B80AA028.0R_ USAJORDANRTGB_P026_A007_HWp3_S
rvice1FF.sbf
10) SBF Flash now should flash the sbf file to your phone and your phone will reboot when it is done.
If you don't have Linux on your computer, you can download Knoppix, which is Linux version that boots and runs completely from a cd. You can download knoppix at knoppix.net and burn the disc image to a cd.

another thing you can try if you could not get the linux method to work. In windows go to compatibility mode and go back to windows xp service pack 2, for some reason I got a friends phone to be deteced using rsd lite. To do this, put the application for rsd lite on your desktop, right click on it then click troubleshoot compatibility. Then click windows xp service pack 2. good Luck

You can put the uk verison of the sbf that you have in the same folder as the sbf_flash.x file.

Hi everyone;
I'm on MIUI11 hybridOS now, and want to get back to the stock rom.
My bootloader is unlocked (by "fastboot oem unlock" command), the drivers are installed on my PC, I'm using mi flash tool 20191206 (i think it's the latest version), i copied mi flash on drive C, and there is no space in the directory of the rom, and i run mi flash as administrator;
but when i connect my phone (in the bootloader mode) to the computer, mi flash doesn't detect it and shows the error "Length cannot be less than zero. Parameter name: length"
Even i tried EDL mode, when in fastboot mode typed "fastboot oem edl", but after that the phone turns off and led light blinks and nothing happens and PC doesn't detect the phone, then i have to restart it by holding the power button.
Could anyone help me?
Thank you

I am in fastboot mode, however it doesn't detect my phone
The alternative way! (My solution )
Finally I found a way to flash my phone without Mi flash tool!
It's so simple,
You boot into fastboot mode and connect the phone to your PC, in the ROM folder (after extracting) there are some files in .bat format (flash_all.bat , flash_all_lock.bat , etc), you just need to double click the appropriate file to run and flash your phone! No need to Mi flash tool!
The Mi flash tool provides the drivers and then basically does what you have done (as I read Xaiomi geek)

Yea you're right, but despite i installed the drivers it gave me the error, so i installed the rom manually!
For fastboot oem edl , you need to have installed Qualcomm drivers, and if u are in miui is more safe edl mode, that is why mi flash don't flash the rom.

I want to try this and manually have found both the .bat files for Windows and .sh files of the same name for Android, but I need to know, from which location of them did you flash the phone: I have downloaded stock ROMs both on my phone SD card and on my PC, both in zip and unzipped. Even with developer mode unlocked, the update function from Settings sees only zipped versions on SD, but only tries to get file info and stops. Tapping on either bat or sh files in the phone's File Explorer opens them for reading as text files instead of executing either. In fastboot mode, the phone attached over usb to my laptop is reflected in Device Manager of Windows as Android Adb Device, if I remember correctly, but no files on it are visible in computer's File Explorer or Total Commander or MiFlash or MiPCsuite, the latter in usual work mode of the smartphone shows its internal memory folders all right, but not the SD as such in its File Explorer, though it opens the phone's media, set to be stored on the SD. The original problem is that despite storage of media and downloads on the external SD card and use of CleanMaster frequently, even after deinstallation of all external apps my Redmi says it has only up to 23 mb of disk space. I was recommended resetting to factory settings, but this function says if fails to switch off device search even after I log out of my Mi account and switch off Google device search as an administrator in Privacy settings. I then tried Recovery button in MiPCsuite,, but it did not work, requiring to back up the device on the PC , but saying backup is impossible when I press its Backup button, and Update\Flash buttons on the suite don't give any results either, as update says there are no updates, which is false. Redmi 3, if it is necessary to know, xiaomi.eu , never changed. So my question is, where from did you flash your phone? Where were the ROM\bat files? On th phone or computer?

Please, please, I want a video, because of the shoes, the same problem mentioned above and it has not been solved so far
Hello everyone.
Yesterday I bricked my Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro, and today I managed to unbrick it without requiring anything special (no need for a Authorized Service Account).
I use Linux, so the scripts inside the Stock ROM end with the .sh file extension. If you're using Windows, use the .bat files.
Phone:
Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro 128GB - Begonia (with NFC).
Bricked state:
Constant boot loop;
No access to bootloader;
No access to system;
Access to fastboot.
Phone requirement:
You must be able to load fastboot mode.
PC requirements:
1. You'll need adb tools (SDK Platform-Tools) to communicate with your phone. Official link is below;
2. Download and unpack the Stock ROM linked below.
Instructions:
1. You need to make sure your phone has some power in it;
2. Unpack the Stock Rom and enter its folder (begonia_global_images_V10.4.2.0.PGGMIXM_20191024.0000.00_9.0_global);
3. Put your phone into fastboot mode (Key Combo: Hold the Power button + Volume Down button until the fastboot logo appears);
4. Connect your phone to your PC;
5. Run the flash_all.* scripts according to your operating system:
5.1. Linux: "./flash_all.sh";
5.2. Windows (untested; I'm not using Windows): Run "flash_all.bat" (How to Run a BAT File on Windows);
6. Wait something between 5min to 10min. It's quite fast, and the flashing process is verbose enough.
7. Profit.
F.A.Q.:
1. How did you find this?
Well, none of the unbrick methods in the forum were working, except for the Authorised Service Account one which I didn' t test. I desperately wanted to unbrick my phone by myself, and I thought that it couldn't get worse (it could with a completely blank screen, but I got away with it).
2. Where did you get the Stock ROM from?
I can't remember. It likely was from a xda forum post but I'm unsure. If I can find the original post containing the Stock ROM I used I'll write it here.
3. Which Miui and Android version did you have prior to the brick?
MIUI Global 11.x + Android 9.
4. Which Miui and Android version does the Stock ROM you installed have?
MIUI Global 10.4.2 + Android 9.
5. Can I install any Stock ROM?
As long as it's compatible with your phone version, yes. I recommend not installing a Android 10 Stock ROM because of this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=82743011&postcount=3
6. What if can't enter fastboot mode (phone screen in dead blank)?
You won't be able to unbrick your phone using this method. It is worth trying to enter fastboot mode even though your phone has a dead screen, because fastboot might be working anyway (you'll have to test this yourself, as in trying to load fastboot with a blank screen). Read the next question.
7. How can I test if fastboot mode is working?
"adb devices" returns nothing;
"fastboot devices" returns your device (proof it works). Since "fastboot devices" finds your device, you can run the appropriate scripts.
8. What about your Mi Unlock Status before and after the brick?
Before: Unlocked.
After: Unlocked (I thought it would lock the bootloader again, but it didn't).
9. My phone is bricked and I don't know how much battery my phone has left. What should I do?
You should let it turn off due to 0% battery and charge it fully. I do not recommend you flash like I did, without knowing how much battery I had (yes, I took my chances there). As far as I know, any phone in fastboot mode does not charge its battery.
10. Why is fastboot working in your case?
I don't know. I suspect flashing the preloader and the lk from this OP Redmi Note 8 Pro - The Megathread helped, but it's just a hunch.
11. Will you attempt to flash a Custom ROM again?
After taking a break, yes.
12. Is this phone now unbrickable?
As long as fastboot mode works, perhaps. More feedback is required.
Files:
SDK Platform-Tools (adb/fastboot): https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
Stock ROM used: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.4.2.0.PGGMIXM/begonia_global_images_V10.4.2.0.PGGMIXM_20191024.0000.00_9.0_global_270117fdb2.tgz
Feedback:
Due to my job I'm currently very short on time during the week to follow this thread, so it would be immensely helpful to have your feedback on this procedure.
Feedback from people who's phones are bricked with blank screens would be very appreciated, specifically if they can enter fastboot mode without any visual cues from their phones. If any bricked state allows fastboot mode, it seems this phone is easily unbrickable.
Thanks:
strongst for his understanding and in reopening this thread.
Compass.

Hi there,
Is there anyway to fix the hardbrick without the authorized account?? If not how can i find someone to do this for me?

Yes, if you can access fastboot mode in your phone like I mentioned above. If hardbrick means loss of access to fastboot mode/recovery/system/basically everything, you'll need to find some other unbrick method.
If fastboot mode is working for you, you can unbrick your device by yourself with nothing else than the fastboot command and the Stock ROM. No need for any extra tools/programs.
inb4: The fastboot command is in the SDK Platform-Tools package I linked in the OP.

That's a shame.
It's worth trying different USB ports, cables etc.
I usually enter fastboot mode first and only then I connect the phone to my PC.
Then "./fastboot devices" and my phone is listed.

I can't give support in this area, but do you have the proper Windows drivers installed?
If you do and it still doesn't work, try a different computer. If you can use a Linux machine somehow it's worth trying. With Linux I didn't need to install anything besides the SDK Platform-Tools package to communicate with my phone.
I think you can unbrick your phone, because fastboot mode is loading (if it's loading it should reply to fastboot commands).

It seems the only solution for you is this (for now): [GUIDE] [begonia] UNBRICK - stuck on DA mode / Authorised Service Account required
Which you've probably read already.
I think you either do that or wait to see if another unbrick method appears.

I have the same problem as yours and tried your solution but after i run flash_all.bat it just opens and closes in a split-second and i have no idea whether it works or not. Should I wait a couple of minutes or just try again?

That's not normal.
What you should see are various files being flashed along with their progress meter.
I'm assuming you're double clicking the .bat file. Instead of doing that, open a CMD Prompt and use that instead.

Are you using the side port? like the instructions on your link says?
How to flash:
Plug the USB Type-C cable into the port on the side
Reboot into bootloader
Extract RAW firmware zip and run flashall_AFT.cmd
You'll see "FLASH COMPLETE. RESTART!" when flashing is completed
Rebooting will open recovery, so do a Factory data reset.
Done!

Are you installed driver for fastboot mode? It' named Qualcomm fastboot driver or something similar to that.
Use side port for up fw/row.

I am running MIUI 14.0.2.0
I installed a gsi, but before booting to it I flashed vbmeta, vbmeta_system and vbmeta_vendor with "fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmetax".
NOW MY PHONE IS DEAD.
It is constantly restarting, but I cant get into fastboot or recovery with the volume buttons.
Any ideas? I am very very thankful for every help!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This may or may not work for your & may cause more damage, so use at your own risk.
***If someone notices a mistake please reply immediately
I faced a similar situation & I followed instructions from this YouTube video.
The language is different, but I will translate & write the steps I followed.
Also, I flashed Vbmeta alongside boot.img
Requirements
> A computer
the links were in videos description.
> Download and install USBDK
> Install mediatek drivers
> Download and install python
> Download MTKClient
> Unlocked bootloader ( I think)
> Fastboot ROM of your device
1.
Extract usbdk and right click the file (if 64bit pc then that if 32bit then x86) and click install
2.
After that extract mediatek driver and install the mediatek preloader driver
3.
After these two installed reboot your pc it is must
4.
after that install python, you are not going to install it normally you need to install it to specific folder
open python installer and click customize installation , check all optional features, click next and check all options,
after that in customize install location create a folder in C drive with name Python 310, select it and install in it
5.
after doing these steps extract mtk client, open its folder & copy boot.img and vbmeta.img from your fastboot rom and paste in mtk client folder
6.
open cmd in mtkclient folder
7.
keep the phone disconnected and run the following command
8.
---------------------------------
python setup.py install
-----------------------------
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
---------------------------------
9.
"I used ab"
----------------------------------------------------------------
for simple
python mtk w boot,vbmeta boot.img,vbmeta.img
---------------------------------------------
for ab
python mtk w boot_a,vbmeta_a boot.img,vbmeta.img
----------------------------------------------------------------
10.
after entering above command you will waiting for device in CMD
boot your phone in brom mode
as you are in bootloop wait till device screen becomes black (in bootloop after mi logo) and immediately do following step before loop occurs again
""to do so hold all phone buttons (volume up,down & power button) keep holding and connect device to pc""
***you will know you're in brom mode when device stays in black screen
the processing will start wait for it to finish,
11.
now boot into fastboot (you might boot into fastbootd reboot and try to boot into fastboot a few times and you will enter fastboot)
flash original rom

Btw this issue alway occurs with me when i use disable verity, first it gets stuck into bootloop with access to fastboot but when i enter command fastboot reboot fastboot, to boot into fastbootd, the phone gets stuck in bootloop and I am not able to access recovery or fastboot.
Hope that above method works for you.

Thank you so much for replying. I was ready to just live without this phone.
I am currently stuck at the first step though, because I wanted to reinstall the UsbDk drivers, but now the installer always exits with an error message.
I'll keep trying but I really hope this isn't where it fails...
Could you maybe share the files the installer extracts to "C:\Program Files\usbdk runtime library"?
I think that might allow me to install it without the msi file.

What error you get.
Its normal for installer to exit automatically after install.
Check control panel if its installed
I followed guide i shared above.

You are my hero! I was convinced the only way to recover would be the mtk bypass, which isn't available for my device.
I kind of knew this might be an option, but because the driver was faulty it didn't work and I thought it was my phone.
My Phone is back and I couldn't be more relieved.
I am turning 18 in a few days and having to buy a new phone would have been terrible for me.
It's always a hit-or-miss wether you actually get helpful replies in forums, so thank you for taking the time to help!
