So I was updating to a newer update in the eu Rom but something went wrong, and the update was stuck. After a bit I got it to work again, and decided to install the stable version instead of the weekly. It was not in the cards. That update/installation also froze, and now my phone is off and won't boot! Oh joy! Is there anything I or an actual repair shop can do, or is it just paperweight, and even if I take it to a repair shop, I'll be paying money for no reason?
Flashing using fastboot takes like 15 minutes for me, maybe it was not stuck after all. Is nothing detected, when plugging it in a pc (check device manager)? Also try pressing power long, to reset it. From my understanding there should always be a way to bring it back using fastboot.

You can always try Remote EDL.
Did you dirty-flash Xiaomi.eu Stable over Weekly? If yes, that's not good. You did a dirty downgrade. Always do a clean flash, unless if it's a Version upgrade of same ROM! (e.g. Stable -> Weekly).
This means always flash Stock ROM before switching to a new Custom ROM.
In case of a black screen (and Recovery/Fastboot being unbootable), you have to flash the ROM using Qualcomm's EDL Mode (Emergency Download Mode). You need to have the phone connected to PC over EDL Mode (Windows Device Manager will show "Qualcomm 9008 Device"). Because Xiaomi locked the EDL Mode you'll have to pay a Xiaomi Authorised Account Guy on Telegram 20-25€. He will remote-control your PC and flash the ROM onto your phone which will have to be connected over EDL Mode.
I can go into more detail if you want. I had to do this once. If you need help/assistance with this, I can give you my Discord or Telegram or whatever. Willing to help.
But fact is, you have to pay 20-25€ to a Xiaomi Authorised Account Guy on Telegram. I know this sounds fishy but it's what we have to do, because Xiaomi locked QC's EDL Mode to Xiaomi Service Centres only, they did this to stop people from porting Chinese Phones to EU and USA for dirt-cheap.
I'll leave you my Discord if you need more help, because I used to be in the same boat and spent weeks reading about it. cyanGalaxy#3161

If you installed Qualcomm 9008 drivers and PC is not detecting the phone in EDL Mode, then the phone hasn't auto-booted into EDL Mode.
You have to boot it manually through either an EDL Cable or by shorting 2 Testpoints on the motherboard (involves taking off backglass). I did the latter.

Shorting isn't complicated. Just use a paperclip. Something that's metal.

Heat it a bit with a hair dryer, use suction cup to lift the backglass very slightly and carefully, insert a hard paper card and cut along all the glue.
You don't need a 1000$ machine sent to your home directly by Apple in a fat carrying case.
It's easier said than done, I know that. Just telling you, as far as tools concerned you only need something good to lift the glass, like a suction cup. That's it.

Hi!
I recently unlocked my bootloader and installed LineageOS on my LG G7, successfully.
I wanted to go back to stock, and I followed this guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g7-thinq/how-to/guide-how-to-flash-stock-firmware-lock-t3820888
After flashing with LGUP, the phone booted to stock firmware with no problems, so I executed:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem lock
At this point, the phone rebooted and it was bricked, since now it shows:
"Your device has failed a routine safety check and will not boot."
I found this thread of a guy with the same problem:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g7-thinq/help/how-recover-phone-red-warning-boot-t3931975
Someone at the end of the thread claims to have solved it:
I successfully recovered from this by getting the v35 engeneering bootloader flashed dump someones frp partition with oem unlock toggled flash it to my phone with fastboot reboot to bootloader, do fastboot flashing unlock, use lgup to refurbish and you're unlocked and good to go again
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
One of the problems is indeed that I cannot unlock the bootloader again because I can't boot and check oem unlock in developer options (fastboot gives an explicit error).
The point is: could anyone describe this procedure a little better and tell me how to get this dump with oem unlock toggled and how to flash it with fastboot?
Other guys already asked on that thread, but he didn't answer...
Thank you in advance!
i have a problem after crossflash my g710pm and i have no 3g or 4g internet enabled, i change the apn and i reset all and flashed a different firmware and no lucky.
Try geting it to boot to download mode and flash kdz with lgup. It might be hard to try to time the reboot with volume and USB cable, I manage after maby 15 attempts

I'm already able to boot both into download mode and fastboot mode, I tried flashing various kdz with LGUP... I think I'm going to take the phone to customer service.
@Emmeggi95 I can help! Send me a P.M.
I did the same thing a few weeks ago. I had a guy on here fix it for me with his octoplus, and then i ended up buying an octoplus medusa pro for myself for any future mistakes i make hahaha
The only way to fix this is with the octoplus jtag and unlocking the bootloader again through 9008 mode.
^^^sirbow2 is right. On my phone, I had only locked bootloader fastboot available, (It would boot to download mode for about half a second, then revert to the useless fastboot) and would not boot to system. I had to disassemble it (use heat gun and warm up back cover then carefully pull it off). Then remove the wireless charging coil. Then disconnect battery connector from the mainboard Then with tweezers touch the two test points and plug usb cable in while holding the tweezers to the test points, this caused the 9008 mode driver to install into the ports section of device manager. At that point, I was able to install the ULM11G ROM and go through the steps in loonycbg2's tutorial to bootloader unlock again. I installed the KDZ with octoplus pro, battery still disconnected, in emergency dl mode.
Hopefully, you wont have to go through all that, that's the most work anyone would have to do to unbrick one of these.

You dont have to disassemble the phone to get into 9008 mode. Hold power and vol down while quickly mashing vol up until you hear the device connect or see it in device manager. The screen stays black so, if you see the logo, you missed it.

Firehose is a qualcomm file thats usually signed by the brand(oem).
Yes most of the time it either leaks or someone privately buys it from a dev of the oem for a good amount of money.

ooohf, sorry. Yeah it is a pain. The time frame has to be a very small fraction of a second right after it shuts off and just starts to boot. Im probably hitting 4 or 5 presses a second could definitely be model dependent as well.

I was trying xiaomi.eu on my global alioth. the current version for global is 12.5.4 but the one on xiaomi.eu is 12.5.8
using fastboot to update my phone, after a few minute phone went to the black screen forever. I can't even go to fastboot or recovery anymore.
although it's only showing a black screen, have you tried plugging phone in and running cmd 'fastboot devices' to see if phone shows at all?
also, have you tried holding power down for a good 20-30secs to reset/reboot device?
EDIT: read too quick... xiaomi.eu, no miflash used...

I bet you anything you and him had something go wrong with your PC. I restart my PC right before I flash anything and I close all application's and stop everything. While it flashes I don't touch my computer at all. I would assume that you guys might play on your PC while it's trying to flash thinking it's fine. Also you should use data cable or cable that came with it. Cheap cables are junk that's why they are cheap.
There is option to try EDL testpoint method when your phone is totally dead. It means you open your phone, connect testpoints and your phone would be visible for pc in device manager as qc9008 port.
Next step- you cant flash the rom by yourself, it requires authentication. There are "helpers" for that. I found one in Telegram and it took about 20usd and 20 minutes to boot the phone from dead brick (MI9T davinci).

Working in IT for years, and all I can say if it would be true, we would have serious issues. It's not like windows 98 anymore, you can actually use your computer as a multitasking device. Like there aren't like 10000 processes without playing games. It's always easier to blame them, for doing "wrong" things while flashing. The only "wrong" thing you can do while flashing is pressing cancel or the reset button.
Hello, i tried helping my grandmother by installing the global rom on her Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 Pro WIFI, however as it didn't work i tried forcing the rom onto it by flashing it manually using fastboot, after this i am not able to power it on, or reach fastboot. It's just a black screen it doesn't matter how long you hold the power key it's just completely black.. Is there something i can do???? Or is it completely destroyed?
Global ROM is not available for PRO version. Probably you flashed a wrong one. Try flashing back the CN one matches your model.

Xiaomi needs a better way to unbrick its devices instead of Authorized Mi Accounts
Xiaomi has locked down the EDL mode on all of its devices, making it nigh impossible to unbrick a device without an Authorized Mi Account. Read on for more!

When it's plugged into the PC, is it recognised with "fastboot devices" or "adb devices"?
If it is you should be able to wipe with "fastboot -w" and start again.

you can remove antirollback, just edit those checkpoints on notepad it will run fine, be sure to flash correct firmware corresponds to your version and release, mine's global so i choose global
but since your problem is now on edl, well... hmm no one but with authorized mi account can bypass miflash tool. either take it to xiaomi directly if it was covered with warranty hoping to get it fixed
dont fall to 25$ guys, sure yeah they hold the keys but thats soo much

I searched for some time and found out that I need a patched firehose file to bypass the edl authentication problem. But if U have any Solutions or suggestions then plz tell me. i will try to apply your method

yea right but the thing is that mine was purchased from another country so here xiaomi won't take itas a warranty product. I was hoping ir I could find someone here who has the mi authorized account or tell me how to get one. if it costs me to pay only once for getting a permanent mi authorized account I will definitely go for that

the thing is that you cant get authorized mi account, someone offers it remotely
surely xiaomi centers can help you with that, if youre paying those remote flashers I suggest you take it there hoping to assist you
or just wait for some exploits on miflash to arise but surely that takes time
Goofy ahh locked EDL mode. Sent you a contact person in dm lol

I have the exact same problem as you. My F3 is only loading the QCOM port and not loading in to fastboot. Please can you tell what did you do to get it working?

This is my understanding. You have 2 options:
Go to Xiaomi Service Center and let them repair it (worth trying/checking out, even if out-of-warranty I think!).
Or, contacting someone who's got an Authorised Xiaomi Account who'd be able to flash the ROM. That's what I did:
I contacted a group on Telegram, got in contact with the moderator. Paid 23€ over PayPal. Needed to wait a few hours for his technician to become available for me. I had to send him TeamViewer session credentials, so he can remote-connect to my PC. He was then available and connected to my PC. I had prepared with the latest MIUI Fastboot ROM and made sure my phone is connected and detected by Windows as a QCOM device. He downloaded some zipped piece of software, opened it, had to move out the TeamViewer session and came back and entered some kind of a Token into that program. He then used Mi Flash (I don't know if *my* Mi Flash, or from his downloaded zip-file), flashed the ROM and it worked.
Actually, during the flash in Mi Flash, my phone disconnected once, which was my fault though. He got a little annoyed, but he flashed it the second time and it worked.
It sounds very sketchy, but it's what I did, and it worked.

I did. My phone didn't auto-enter EDL Mode. I've heard that if the Qualcomm SOC detects that the bootloader can't be booted, it automatically alternates to the EDL Mode, which resides on the SOC itself, is read-only, and can't be erased.
Didn't happen for me. My suspicion is that my phone was able to boot into the BL, but couldn't load anything (Fastboot, Recovery, System..), and so it was stuck there instead of in EDL Mode.
I could've bought a Deep Flash Cable, but I didn't. I think I wanted an excuse to open up my phone "What could possibly go wrong?" =)
Well I did it, I killed my tablet installing windows. The brick started when I partitioned the device twice by mistake.
It is on a loop till the battery dies, can't access fastboot and can only get into recovery.
I've got an edl cable but still the pc does not recognises the device.
Anyone here has had this same issue?
Thanks

If your tab is going into recovery you should try Xiaomi Flash Tool i think they have a sideload or something.
Prior bricking the pad, your EDL cable worked? If so then your only option will be to open the device and search for EDL pads, or ask a Xiaomi authorized service to fix your PAD, this way you will not lose the waranty, if any.
