hi, I need help. MY phone got bricked after rebooting into recovery and it has a bootloop, and I can't access Fastboot even though my bootloader is unlocked. If I try to enter BROM mode, in device manager it shows that it is connected as "Oplus Preloader" and no software recognizes it, only "MTKClient", although it gives the error of "handshake failed, retriying..." can anyone tell me how to switch to MTK preloader or some method that can revive my phone? in addition to RCSM Tool, which is a paid tool
I have the EXACT same issue. I have given my phone to a repair shop nearby and requested a chip-off flashing (a risky process), after being frustrated for a month by trying various ways. Don't know if it will survive. If it doesn't, I'm not getting a MediaTek phone next time. At least in Snapdragon phones the fastboot and recovery don't get messed up after bricking and the phone is always fixable easily.

In my case. that's happened because i was testing RMUI4 trial version, but, i losed RIL , because i'm from LATAM and Trial Version is from India region, so, when i wanted reboot to recovery (TWRP), my phone only try reboot to recovery, and i cant access to fastboot or brom mode because realme "renamed" the preloader and fix the brom exploit...

I even purchased the RCSM tool as I lost hope. Even it didn't work! Like it is the official service center tool and even it didn't work! That exactly was when I lost all hope and went to the repair shop. Those guys were hesitant about trying the chip off method, but I assured them that it is no problem if the phone dies. Fingers crossed, I'm hoping for the best. Looking for a POCO F4 as my next phone if it failed. Anyways, happy new year!
I'm experiencing the same problem, I didn't change the format all option when using SPFT and my phone got hardbricked, no access to fastboot or recovery, tried flashing firmwares with spft but no luck. Then I found a newer firmware with realme ui 3 and flashed it but still the phone wouldn't turn on. After that, everytime I try to use mtk client I get "31mCouldn't get device configuration" error and if I use spft it just never begins downloading.

They actually revived the phone! Tbh, I had zero hopes for it, but thanks to them, I'm typing this on my phone. But, the rear camera isn't working for some reason. However, the phone is working as good as new .

Congrats!! What firmware did they install, same region ?, is the bootloader locked ?, does dual sim work normally ?. I'm sorry for the amount of questions but I'm really curious since only one technician was willing to try the chip off method but he looked sketchy.

Hi there,
I've been exactly there with my H815. I have tried numerous solutions, but to no avail. On your reddit post I saw that you tried the recovery key combination and ended up in download mode again? Did this happen, after you pressed a button? With my phone, when the LG factory reset screen appeared and I confirmed twice, a long time nothing happened. After a couple of minutes the Android recovery (not TWRP) screen appeared. Maybe you'll have a chance to get your phone recognized via adb sideload or sth. Or start fastboot mode. Maybe you can reflash TWRP? But if you are facing the same problems as me, it probably won't help you.
For me, I ended up sending my phone to LG, despite the fact that the warranty was void. They changed the mainboard and never said anything about repair fees and apparently the phone is on it's way back to me as I write. I hope it arrives tomorrow and I can let you know.
Hang in there! :fingers-crossed:

My warranty is over ( 2 Years ) Do you think I could try ?? (Bootloader unlocked/ Custom rom and recovery have been installed)
But I can access to the LG recovery if you mean the one with Restore factory with double Yes ? But when I press Yes my phone freeze like 15 seconds and reboot in download mode...

I cannot give you any guarantees, as I am not associated with any LG support haha. Technically, I am still on warranty, but as I also unlocked the bootloader, installed Custom ROMs etc... the warranty would be void anyway.
I got a reply from LG support that i should send it to their repair shop (some shop in Germany) and they would reply with an estimate of the repair costs. Now, all I got is the tracking number, the phone's on its way home and they did not charge me at all (as of yet). So you could be lucky, but you very well may not be.
I'd say, take your chances and contact LG support, send it in. If they want to charge you a huge amount of money, they can still send it back to you unrepaired and you might be able to fix it yourself. In any case, I wish you the best of luck!

the thing is after you have flashed TWRP you HAVE to boot directly to TWRP afterwards. otherwise it gets overwritten.
You can also setup SALT and depending on what your current firmware is you can flash TWRP with SALT too.
For that IRC is much better though http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=carbonfusion-user

Hi,
A belated little update. My phone has found its way back to me and is working perfectly again. The main board had some dysfunction, it was exchanged.
LG didn't charge me a dime, so I can't complain. Flashed LOS 14.1 just now and everything is running smoothly. Hope you had some luck with your phone as well?
Cheers
Ok I tried everything with salt, with the motherboard ! Last thing I can do is to contact the support ... Waiting their answer and i'll tell you the feedback
So here's the story, TL;DR at bottom.
So I have been checking out gaming phones for a little bit and saw the RedMagic 6 Pro and was captivated by its glowing RGB, 16GB of RAM, high refresh screen, a delicate and strange but mighty internal fan and A BATTERY THAT WOULD LAST ME ALL DAY.
So naturally I ordered the phone as soon as it launched in NA and waited about a week and before I got it. Once I did, it was like Willy Wonka and I was Charlie with a golden ticket.
At first I didn't notice anything wrong, maybe these glitches were there all along and I just never noticed it. After some steady usage, I started noticing little things here and there that were annoying, like the app switcher not opening sometimes, not closing apps, notifications not showing, misspelled words in the Settings app. You know, annoying stuff like that.
Obviously I tried to do factory resets a couple times to see if it would help but nothing fixed it so my conclusion was that something was wrong with the software itself.
My next idea was to download and try to I guess manually update the phone in hopes that that would also reload part of the system...¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Went to the global rom page on redmagic.gg>downloaded the rom to my computer that matched my phone model>factory reset the phone>copied update over>manual install through settings>phone says installing... whatever>then reboots to the RedMagic boot logo and never goes from there.
So now I'm sitting here, clearly devastated by the loss of my little pocket heater, my side table light show, my phone I use to cheat on Apple and iPhone with (shh don't tell Siri).
Things I've already tried>
1) More factory resets through the recovery
2) Letting the battery die and then charging it.... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
3) extracting .img from payload update file and flashing through fastboot (always fails due to locked bootloader)
4) Reaching out to Nubia support, I don't think they like me because they haven't answered back yet.
TL;DR -- Is there a way to unbrick/reflash the 6 or 6 Pro with a locked bootloader yet?
waiting for same thing.... quite sad that i can't use my phone just from an update
Yeah, there is a number of us in the same position. We could start a club. The really expensive paperweight club or something. I've also reached out to support. They asked a couple of questions, I promptly answered, and thin it's been crickets since.

Where is everybody getting TWRP? I don't think there is one yet for the 6 yet. Not till there is kernel source available.
I have the rom extracted here for both the EU and NA/Asia releases. In each is an output folder. You need to flash the boot.img.
in Treble based roms the boot and recovery are in the boot.img. So you flashed over the whole boot image with TWRP that isn't working for the 6 yet, so it defaults to fastboot.

restart your phone and you have stock recovery,,wipe data and you have unbricked device
i download latest twrp but not working and after install twrp i was stucked in fast boot like you
I pulled apart the RM5 unbrick tool to see if I can learn anything that might help us that are stuck at the logo screen. So obviously this contains the RM5 rom right now.
It contains all the firehose files and script and such and obviously the image to the RM5. I was looking into if it could be used to recover the RM6. I've been slammed at work and not been able to dig into it as I'd like, but i have it located here if anybody wants to dig into it too.

That's what I was hoping for but worried it's going to take more than just that, like the GPT layout and some other things.
For sure you will need the partition table, rawprogram, & a firehose for the SD888; I'd be surprised if the one for the RM5 would work on the RM6.
So my phone is stuck on this issue. I haven't done anything wrong. My phone was just peacefully charging then the phone switches off by itself then the bootloop happened.
This showed on the screen:
dm-verity corruption
your device is corrupt.
it can't be trusted and my not work properly.
press enter button to continue.
Or, device will power off in 5s.
(written in white)
Although it does turn off by itself if I ignore it, after I turn it on again and press enter or power button it boot until lockscreen and if I try to do something like unlocking, scrolling down notifs bar, and sliding through different page on home screen it will turn off again. It seem like it's crashing. The thing is I am not trying to root or flash something. I haven't done anything on my phone. I only have one phone and I badly need your help. I hope wiping or reformatting the phone is my last resort. My phone is updated to Android 11 and lateset MIUI (provided by the system itself and not downloaded somewhere). Thank you.
Well seems like something is corrupt.
It reboots when you touches the screen(or do anything)?

At some point I did manage to unlock it but it happened only once and when I tried to open the notifs by scrolling down or tried to different part of homescreen it just shuts down. After that, it can't even go to the lockscreen after reboot. It's a never ending cycle. I can go to fastboot mode but I don't know if I can do miracle with that.
Well immediately plug into a computer and pull photos amd videos from it if you get it unlocked.

Do you think service center can help me with this or they'll probably just say to replace the phone if a bad chip is the case?
Maybe they will replace the motherboard with some fee. Or they will try to convince you to buy a new fancy phone just purely because xiaomi could earn more.
Thats all about luck (and problem is on xiaomi side, not your fault)
what's the smartphone model?
Redmi note 8 pro is the OP's phone.

Do you guys think I need to go to the service center because I don't know what to do. I really don't want to brick my phone. But a while ago my phone booted. I set it up just like buying a new phone but after I finished setting up, I just wait for the phone to catch up because I was afraid the phone will just shut down suddenly. And then, it happened again the phone shut downs without me doing anything. Now I tried to boot it up again but it is currently stuck at Redmi logo (plus "powered by android" at the bottom").

SPFT enables when phone is a brick, so there's no need in service center.
they will flash it like we are going to do
Help, does anyone know how to fix dm-verity corruption? I was using my tab normally, then it suddenly shuts down and this error keeps popping up whenever my device boots. It goes on a loop unless I press the power button again.

steady 100% overnight while playing for 5 hours, thats not good i think
My story before I got into this mess:
I received my phone as a christmas gift to myself on January 2022
I really want to remove those bloatwares so obviously I'll unlock its bootloader and flash custom roms. I tested every roms available on a whole month of february and stayed for xiaomi.eu since I want the feels of miui but not the global one.
So far so good and im happy with eu rom until 22.8.10 update.
August 12, lunchbreak at work I decided to push some updates on my device. After flashing I still have almost 70-60% , I used it until 10%, after charging it my phne constantly loops at fast-charging animation and low power warning. I thought my cables were faulty or the charger plug itself. I didnt do anything and after a while it was okay.
about an hour later it just reboots itself, constantly powering on and off, unable to start itself, and after a while, i think 4-6 unsuccessful reboots and it fixes itself.
I just slept for a day not noticing anything. The morning I woke up, this is where i notice omething strange happen with my battery stuck at 100% even using some battery intensive apps before going to bed, looked up at battery stats and saw it stays constant for 16 hours.
I thought might be a bad update then I factory reset the phone. Still sitting at 100. I flashed previous version. No changes. This is the point I worried. I downloaded that 5 gigabyte fastboot rom of poco f3 global and still no signs of luck, I even choose to lock bootloader , still the same issue.
After collecting some infos, someone on TG said it might be related to PMIC breaking things up, ahardware-related issue.
Anyone having this? Thanks
There can be bugs on the weekly builds. Use the stable builds if you don't want to deal with potential bugs

I wouldn't go to a service center unless it's a hardware issue. You should be able to fix it, it just may take awhile of trial and error. you already have more knowledge than the average service center tech when it comes to flashing roms and whatnot, they're just wanna send it away most likely.
Also, could you summarize the issue you're having? It will increase your chances of someone replying with a potential fix

i thought so too about flashing and stuff yeah xda rules!
but this one im not sure but it was not the usual software issue. I tried jumping from every roms i know, eu, lineage, arrow and still stuck at 100%
I also tried reverting it back to fastboot global stock roms, even the old ones and still facing the same issue
im now looking at flashing my device on edl mode. I remember my old phone I have redmi 5a, I got broken sensors due to jumping from xiaomi.eu to stock rom, even fastboot roms wont help, and the only thing fixes the sensors back to normal was edl mode flashing.
but edl mode is a pain when it comes to pocof3 , it needs to short some test points and to have authorize mi accounts just to get it done

Just wanna ask a few questions to exclude them
Have you tried using a different USB cable /different USB port on your pc?
Have you tried entering recovery and factory reseting the phone before a new Rom flash?
Have you tried factory reseting the phone via settings after a new Rom flash, and after the phone boots up?
If you do think it's a hardware issue, it couldn't hurt to flash to stock and see what service center / xiaomi can do. I just wouldn't mention anything about the whole flashing business lol. But yeah, they might swap it out for ya best case scenario. But might be without a phone for awhile :/

How did you flash new firmware? Via PC? If yes reflash it again then proceed with stepa below ( When flashing select clean all , you don't need to lock bootloader just yet so don't select lock )
You need to enter bootloader mode ( Power on phone while holding volume down , then type fastboot reboot bootloader. You must do it like this! Just holding volume down doesn't enter bootloader , instead it enters a stripped down version of it... Don't know what it's called... )
Reboot phone after doing this , if battery still isn't fixed flash back to stock , lock bootloader and go to service center. Don't even bother with anything else , pmic is supposed to reset when you enter bootloader ( Maybe it even resets in stripped bootloader but just to be safe do enter true boatloader like described above ) . If it isn't fixed it's likely a hardware issue

done that too, I formatted the device before flashing it again, only dirty flash on eu update, after my issue arises ive done clean flash, does also too before reflashing stock rom on fastboot

done as well, even on stock rom, i also lock my bootloader just to be sure, but still at 100%
one thing I also did was manually flashing persist but it wouldnt let me in, I tried also on recovery terminal, via orangefox, and twrp.
tried flashing persist manually too using
Code:
dd
, output says it pushed successfully but I dont think so. fastboot disabled flashing persist, needs edl mode.

i want to do edl mode flashing but some encryption needed, even at qfil cant flash the thing, needs to modify prog files and crack it

I had to flash a ROM through EDL Mode once (I hardbricked my phone). I had to pay someone on Telegram with an Authorised Xiaomi Service Center Account 25€ and it did work.
So... it seems to be locked by Xiaomi. Apparently to stop people from importing phones from China and flashing Global ROM on them.

What are we even talking about anymore?
You'll pay 20$ for edl that likely won't do anything, you're just delaying inevitable. If pmic is not reset via bootloader ( fastboot reboot bootloader ) that's where you start thinking it's hardware issue.
What do u even wanna flash? Open stock ROM folder and enter folder called images on pc - look what's inside, persist, cust, boot everything is in there and was flashed already...
Just take your phone to service center while you still can , if under warranty keep requesting new motherboard . They'll likely try battery replacement first.
If it's not under warranty then ok play around as much you feel the need to , it just makes no sense to beating your head with all of this when warranty covers it

its true , im just trying to figure this out myself if possible or not, accessing service center here is much more troublesome rather fixing it in such way i think possible
but yeah ill update soon enough, tomorrow will be my only day off for a week, will definitely take a visit, wish me luck!
update: i sent my phone to mi authorized drop points yesterday. expected to get it repaired within 2 weeks and to pick it up next month.
update: today Ill pickup my device, will ask what could be the cause of the issue

Good luck! Let us know
so I got the device, support told me about the issue: battery only replugged, no other service, no replacements needed, seems some wirings got loose.
Ive read similar incident here, s/he only did replug the cable, got it fixed. Same issue on my end
I flash different roms from time to time and on this occasion during a flash of Xiaomi eu rom my wire accidentally became disconnected from my PC and the phone just went black. no response to power button or volume buttons. I then did some research concerning EDL mode, got in touch with an authorized Xiaomi account user to do the flashing, opened up my phone, shorted the two pins and connected as Qualcomm 9008 Device driver. The Xiaomi account person then used team viewer to flash the rom. the whole process was a success software wise and i was really excited to use my phone again. the moment of truth came and i pressed the power button but still dead, no response. sadly just got a little over a year out of it. It was 8 gig ram version. Over $300 bucks. Do you guys think it could be possible that it's hardware failure instead of software? Like perhaps the phone was going to die anyway but just coincidentally died during a flashing process with the wire becoming disconnected. IDK seems too crazy for a situation like that.
Try it again. If you can connect with it, it's not bricked. Possible hardware failure but it might have been the flash got corrupted for other reasons during the process... assuming the right firmware was flashed. So repeat and see what you got.
Personally I avoid flashing and OTA updates/upgrades whenever possible. I will only use them when neccessary which is very rare.

Thanks for your response man. This phone originally came with a global firmware installed on it however I would flash china official firmware from time to time with no issues as well. the Xiaomi person flashed a china firmware. you think I should try again and flash global instead?

You're welcome.
Use what worked. Then if that works proceed at your own peril if you want to flash other firmware...
Be patient as you may get replies from others here that are more relevant to this specific device and issue.
Hi,if u say the flashing was done successfully there should not be a problem anymore.Just try to charge ur phone some time,maybe this can help...Is your phone still in EDL mode if u connect this to pc?
