[8/6/16] Unbrick RN3 from HS USB 900E with modified fastboot file

Found a way to reboot to edl mode from fastboot
All credits to @emuzychenko
1) Download modified fastboot file
2) Reboot your phone to fastboot
3) Double click on edl.cmd
4) You are on 9008/edl mode
5) Flash any fastboot image from Mi flash
You successfully unbricked your device

Hi
Try with that method also. It seams to work .

Next time I brick it again (trust me, it will happen) I will give those a try.

This is the solution www(dot)htcmania.com(/)showthread(dot)php?t=1163463
Cheked by me, the brick was to try to unlock the bootloader without the Xiaomi message.
Sorry for my english, bu ti hope to be helpful.
To restore the default Bootloader copy paste the emmc_appsboot.mbn from Fastboot Rom to the Adb foldee
and type command on cmd
fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn
fastboot flash abootbak emmc_appsboot.mbn
fastboot reboot

For those who have failed and stuck on "HS USB 900E" and the bootloader stick locked here is the solution :
1. Enter fastboot by holding vol down + power
2. Plug your RN3Pro to PC
2. Flash original bootloader from official fastboot firmware
fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn
fastboot flash abootbak emmc_appsboot.mbn
3. Type again :
fastboot reboot
and quickly hold volume up untuk it enter "sideload" mode
4. Install Mi PC Suite from this link en.miui.com/thread-225600-1-1.html
5. Let the Mi PC Suite download the latest chinese firmware, just sit and wait until it done
6. Lets Brick the beast again

Have you tested this method yourself? I think this is for people who bricked the device but had stock recovery inside, what about people who has twrp and bricked the device? Also I dont think you can flash anything through fastboot in locked bootloader

IT WORKS

Yes i did .. and its not allowing me to flash anything .. Getting Error Device is locked :/

failed bro, getting error device is locked using QFIL.:crying:

Guys, please mention the reason behind your device getting bricked too when you are reporting what worked and what didn't. Like whether during unlock bootloader process(without xiaomi's permission) or flashing custom ROM(most probably MIUI official updates) via twrp.

What were you doing when it bricked?

Go to service center. They will repair it

so toook to service centre and got it repaired for free in 2hrs

i've tried this myself. In HS USB 900E you can flash aboot through fastboot whether you stock recovery or twrp before bricked.

Rajdip said:
I have found few ways by which people may unbrick from HS USB 900E state without test point, but those guides are for other devices, needs thorough testing for Redmi note 3.
Tools needed:-
1) QPST http://www.androidbrick.com/downloa...qcn-for-lollipop-android-5-0-6-0-marshmallow/
2)Nubia tool studio https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0BwtoIMKf470SRUxfdHA5cU14ZTQ#
Now follow these guides for reference,
1)http://www.androidbrick.com/ultimat...ide-snapdragons-are-unbrickable-qhsusb_dload/
2)http://www.androidbrick.com/unbrick...-you-have-the-right-kind-of-rom-qhsusb_dload/
Only people with hardbrick(900E) and locked bootloader can this test methods, Please try and leave your feedback, maybe we will find a way to unbrick without opening the phone and voiding warranty. Good Luck

My phone it's blocked into huawei start screen

Hello,
Yesterday when I Wanting to charge the battery of my phone, it's suddenly turned off, and since it is stuck on the startup screen..
I have traveled dozens of French forums in search of a solution, I come back to you now because I am a little desperate
As for my phone, he was never rooted, and I never change firnware, I do not have access to recovery, there is only fastboot mode that works
In the fastboot mode, i can read "ap-s-abnormal-n/a et phone locked frp lock".
If I understand correctly, I can not flash my phone because it is blocked..
Please help me

Do you have Access to the huawei E-Recovery? Try doing a factory reset there.
Or try to unlock your Bootloader with ADB, Flash TWRP and then Flash a customrom or another Firmware.
I hope I was able to help you.
Greetings from Germany.

Huawei p9 hardbrick, cannot resolve the problem

Hello mates!
Yesterday I accidentally bricked my phone and I spent ours and ours on this and others forums to find solution but without succes, so here is what was happen:
I was on L21C432B380 firmware, stock, bootloader locked, without root acces. So I tried to flash ROM 7.1.2 AOSP by Meticulus. I followed step by step guide. I succesfully unlocked bootloader using fastboot. Then I flashed TWRP again using fastboot so I can downgrade to EMUI 4.X and that was succesfull also. After that I flashed oem-info using TWRP and flashed stock UPDATE.ZIP using three button method, both succesfully but when phone tried to boots up It shows message "No OS installed".
My entire system and data was deleted, there is no recovery, bootloader is again locked, I have only managed to get into fastboot mode using adb
Every single command I tryed to run in cmd results in this message: "FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
Somehow I need to install Firmware using fastboot but don't know how cause bootloader is again locked
My knowledge about this things is above average but I cannot "google" the problem
Please help and thanks in adavnce

Hello man,
Dont know why u do that (downgrade to MM)...
Explicitly written for flash AOSP 7.1.2 to be on emui5 (were u was)...
Flashing oem also relocked your bootloader (written ton of times in threads)....
Now using fastboot re-unlock bootloader re-flash TWRP.
If u maked a full backup just use it, otherwise try to follow this guide..

How can oem unlock leEco le pro 3 x722

Hi guys
I destroyed my leEco le pro 3 x722
After passing the custom rom
Now the device is locked on fastboot only
There is no system and no recovery
The problem I have now is the decryption. If the oem unlock is I can update it. Please help oem unlock
The device does not respond to commands
Everything is written
PS C: \ adb> fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'recovery' (39337 KB) ...
OKAY [0.895s]
writing 'recovery' ...
FAILED (remote: Partition flashing is not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.940s
How can oem unlock in another way ????

What did you try to flash, and on which firmware?
If you tried flashing stock 26s, that locks the bootloader permanently. There really ought to be a sticky about this here. The mods here aren't active at all, which is a shame. And you cannot flash any random ROM you come across, like MIUI. Someone on this forum tried to flash a MIUI ROM and bricked their phone. There is no one-size-fits-all universal ROM that you can flash on every phone... every ROM requires a set of drivers unique to your device, so you need a dev to port specific ROMs to your device. Just clearing that up for anyone who's confused about ROM availability.
What you're supposed to do in order to flash anything at all is to first flash Batyan's 20s developer ROM via stock recovery, unlock the bootloader via Dev options and fastboot, and then flash TWRP and then your ROM. Apparently the vendor ROMs on 20s (from Banggood, Geekbuying, Gearbest, etc.) cannot be unlocked, even though the OEM unlocking option is present in eUI's Developer options.
As for resolving your brick, post to this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/le...velopment--and-mods/try-unbrick-x722-t3686191
Hopefully your brick is a soft one that can be resolved without a QFIL file. Because there's no QFIL available for the x722, and it seems to be very difficult to obtain anyway.

You installed Batyan's 20s developer ROM
In the past I opened the boot loader but when I tried Rum Miwi did not work
I wanted to go back to the official 26s Rom
Unfortunately everything has lost and the device is ruined
I did not see the warning of testing
How is the solution now

The official 26s ROM locks the bootloader down. If you try to flash anything through it, you'll end up with a bricked device. I'm sorry.
Did you say that you tried to install MIUI? I don't know what "Miwi" is. All I know is, that's something you shouldn't have done.
I'm not sure if you successfully flashed the official 26s ROM or not, and then tried to flash something else... that would cause a brick for sure, AFAIK.
Again, post to the thread about bricked phones that I linked. There are quite a few people with bricks here. Hopefully a solution will present itself soon. Until then, hold onto your phone and hope. :/

So your fastboot works just flash the boot loader .
Nice. I finally able to unlock and root. Although I just wished, the first page gets updated with the current method. I have to go through all the pages to fully understand what to do.
So basically a quick roundup:
go in fastboot
flash emmc_appsboot.mbn inside the zip.
reboot
it will ask for a password, just ignore it and reboot back to fastboot
unlock the bootloader
flash twrp
boot into twrp
format phone
then you're done!

The X722 with 26S strock brick CAN NOT FLASH FOR FASTBOOT.

fastboot flash emmc_appsboot.mbn <- that command is not correct, that's why it errors saying partition not found. The partition to flash is missing, not sure what partition is supposed to be specified, but the command should look like this...... fastboot flash 'thecorrectpartition' emmc_appsboot.mbn

fastboot flashing unlock_critical
You can flash factory images using the batchfile in the firmware archive or using MiFlash. You can also flash in Snapdragon EDL-(Emergency Download) Mode (bootloader unlocked is necessary) by typing:
Code:
fastboot oem edl

Try again with more available RAM (eg. close Google Chrome).

I got the same error even with only miflash open and 8gb ram.

In theory - yes http://en.miui.com/thread-3439864-1-1.html But you can break your phone very easily doing it.

Did you install all Xiaomi drivers using MiFlash and disabled driver signature?
Did you also unlock the critical partitions?

Try one of the batch files from the stock rom via command prompt. E.g. flash_all.bat, which worked for me as MiFlash did not want to do the job, too. Unlock critical is needed though.

The only way to flash was in EDL/Test Point mode. I opened the phone but you can use a Xiaomi deep flash cable (EDL cable).

You can also boot into EDL mode from fastboot (needs bootloader unlocked) by typing the following command:
Code:
fasboot oem edl

So did anyone flash fastboot ROM with success using MiFlash or not?

Yes, my flash succeeded sucessfully after the second try. I got an error (system_b flashing failed), I closed Chrome to free up more RAM and the flash finished.

To unlock the bootloader, do I need to create a xiaomi account and request a token to unlock it or can I use the usual
>fastboot oem unlock
?
