Screen stuck at boot after flashing ROMs - Redmi Note 8 Questions & Answers

So I tried flashing roms using OrangeFox. I cleared everything but internal, sd, usb memory. Added ginko firmware to queue, McLaren OS, disable dm verity. Rebooted to system and it was stuck at the redmi logo with powered by Android at the bottom.
After some time I went back to recovery and cleared everything but internal blah blah and flashed just an Oxygen OS gsi for AB (.img). Rebooted to system same result.
Next I did the same with an Xperia for AB gsi and then Oxygen for A only. Always same result. What do I do?

Same result :/

imho you need a guide special for RN8 how to flash GSI rom's.
I only saw one guide on XDA for RN8Pro, which is another phone.
For RN8 (gingo/willow) you can use a generic guide
On russian forum I found a complete guide. Maybe you can see there what you can do better.
Use Google translate or Chrome for reading.

Hi
Can anyone help with this ?
I am stuck on a Linux logo on my screen
I am unable to go into recovery or Bootloader mode
However if I Fastboot, it recognize the device
I tried flashing the recovery image and It Flashed successfully; Yet I cannot boot into Recovery
I tried Flashing the the Bootloader and the same
Funny thing is all Fastboot commands seem to work, like rebooting the Bootloader, but it goes straight to the Linux logo
see picture attached
Thank you.

Did you erase the system? If not try to flash for fastboot just boot.img, maybe help you, if don't reboot flash the entire rom image
I was testing volte.zip. I already tried flashing the boot file, still nothing. I tried flashing miui global fastboot with miflash still no luck. It sees the device but flashed for 5s and then said successful.
did u check "clean all" and try edl mode (just a reminder,it happened to me many times,i was impatient/panicked forgot to check "clean all")

I have never seen this linux logo before on Mi Max and I can assure you I am on top of everything happening around it...
I think you did something hmmm... excuse me but stupid... That volte.zip is for kenzo and it flashes all partitions that you are not supposed to flash with anything but hydrogen specific images... Your only option is EDL mode flashing and I am not even sure if it is going to work.
Good luck...

What did you do to understand, maybe wrong firmware, maybe just a problem of modem partition, if you are using DualBootPatcher try with a CM based rom like primary, other possibility is to flash just NON-HLOS.bin of corrrect rom in fastboot mode, maybe wrong file in Update Firmware folder (in zip rom), go with a file explorer to /data/nvram if it`s generated for the new rom, take a backup first and delete after, reboot device (if this is the case) and check again your sim.

Thank you though, I was able to resolved it by flashing the EFS backup that I had.
Problem SOLVED !!!
Thanks again for your Help.
I got a bricking when I tried flashing MIUI EU ROM over CM on a locked bootloader. Is there a way to flash the latest firmware files without also flashing a new boot image which could brick the phone? I had to do an EDL flash using MiFlash last time, I don't want to go through the hassle again.

TWRP recovery loop, what should I do?

Hey all. I got my mi6 recently. and I installed twrp on it, and flashed magisk. I was trying to install atmos in recovery mod, then I remembered that I hadn't already downloaded the file. For some damn reason I decided to wipe my device. however that didn't go well, and now I'm stuck on a twrp load loop.
I've already tried this command unsuccessfully.
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/misc bs=256 count=1 conv=notrunc
Also in desperation, I flashed my phone, rebooted it and etc.
What else can I try?
you can re-flash Twrp in fastboot mode, then boot to twrp, connect to you pc, it will recognize your phone as usb storage.
Down load you rom, copy it to your phone, then install rom by Twrp.

you may need to use a mobile browser. But there are mirrors.
I managed to fix the problem, by accident.
I just wiped Dalvik cache and data using the wiping tool in twrp.
after the reboot, TWRP was gone, and a fresh rom was installed with all my data, gone. However, that already has happened. So it wasn't a great loss.
I'm not technical, so I don't really know what made caused the loop, or how another wipe fixed it. So if anyone can explain it better, the floor is yours.
Thanks for the support.

Hi, first of all thank you for your help.
i flashed via fastboot twrp and now i can enter into recovery normally.
Then I done some wipes and installed the rom and rebooted (I have it into the memory), it showed the logo of the rom and then i saw the home screen for 0,5 second and rebooted into recovery again…
what's wrong?

I am unable to flash a custom ROM on my note 9 pro (joyeuse), I tried xiaomi.eu, havocos, evolutionx, lineageos, etc.
Also tried every possible recovery, no matter what I do when I hit system reboot, I land on the fastboot screen.
Followed the procedure, format data, wipe dalvik/cache tried disabling encryption, flash magisk, I'm out of ideas.
please help.
Logs would help.

Follow rom install guide to the letter (and no extra steps either). If unsuccessful ask in the rom thread. You didn't have to open a new thread mentioning all these roms. It's hard to help you because each rom has a different procedure.
I've already tried everything.
Either bootloop or fastboot screen.
I followed the instructions exactly.
I would like to install Lineage-OS

After installing TWRP are you immediately and succesfully rebooting to TWRP recovery before doing anything else? - if you do not do that, then you can end up back at MIUI recovery.

No need use recovery, Just download this gsi rom(https://sourceforge.net/projects/he...5011-HBTRIA-10-12-2020-GSI-Aonly.7z/download) and extract the 7z file, rename the extracted rom as system.img ,and type in fastboot cmd:
fastboot flash system C:\system.img, Which“ C:\system.img ” should be replaced by your rom's directory.
for powershell type .\fastboot flash C:\system.img
then fastboot reboot
I do not trust myself.
The last time always bootloop.
Can someone give me step by step instructions.
for example:
1. Wipe ...
2. do not Format ...
...
F**k off
Mi Recovery again.

Question POCO F3 bricked

Hey, I just unlocked my bootloader after waiting for the 7 days today I wanted to install the MIUI EU, and i follow the steps that they have on their website, installed and boot into recovery mode TWRP format data, and install the ROM that i downloaded, after that the wipe on the cache. When i rebooted my phone he didn't boot and was stuck on POCO screen. After 1 hour it was stuck on that, I decided to try and flash stock firmware with miflash tool, did the steps and after 604 seconds it shows success on the result but it doesn't boot the same thing stuck on POCO screen.
You need to Format data. Not cache.
Then the phone will boot up just fine.
Go, do it again.
Try to flash it using miflash again.
Then Boot TWRP, then flash it again + ( FORMAT DATA)

I had the same issue before. Just reflash the stock (be aware, don't select "Wipe data and lock")
When the phone boots up. Flash twrp or just boot it. Then flash Xiaomi EU then FORMAT DATA.

I will think later this day about installing a custom ROM. but I don't hate miui as much as people usually hate, I find some things extremely useful I just don't like some UI esthetics i prefer the minimalist look of pure android. But some things like the cloning apps are very handy to me. Some bugs that are present atm on custom ROMs for this device like the double-tap to wake up are very negative to me because I have always used that feature since 2014 and I'm extremely used to it.
