Hard Brick Redmi 2 - Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers

Hello all!
My phone stoped receiving automatic updates few months ago, don't know why. Today i tried to flash ROM via
MiFlash but it gives me error about missmatch device and image so i flashed via command promt, and with the last command it should reboot but it just shut down. I can't power it up again, it doesn't vibrate, nothing. I can't even enter fastboot or recovery, windows doesn't recognise it either.
So i f**** up pretty bad i guess.
Download ROM was global developer for redmi 2, i didn't flash wrong ROM.
Is any chance i can get it fixed?
Help me

Is it fixed? Your. device

Redmi pro rom problem

Hi everyone!
I have bougth a Redmi Pro on Gearbest and it came with Chinese/English Version of MIUI.
After a week of usage, i turned off my xiaomi and when i turned back on, it stucked on a Mi logo. Far as i discovered searching on web, it was a bug that other peopel have reported too.
I took a opportunity of having this bug to fix, to put other rom on the phone. A rom with Portuguese language witch is my mother lang.
I tried to put the new rom via "SP Flash took" with the fastboot mod but without success.
I requested the unlocking on Xiaomi Unlocking site and when they repplyed and i connected the xiaomi to the computer, the program (XiaomiMiFlash) gave me an error message telling ""Couldn´t verify device. Current account is diferent from the account info in the device"
No i can´t do nothing with the phone.
Can you guys have some idea how can i solve this?
Thank you all!
There is a good chance that the phone is already unlocked.
What was the problem with fastboot? Maybe drivers issue?
Have you tried flashing TWRP? If it takes then the phone is unlocked and you can proceed with flashing the xiaomi.eu or globerom.

Tks 4 the support!
About the Fastboot i putted the phone on fastboot mode and i disabled the Driver Signature Enforcement on Windows. I connected the phone to the computer and started to run the SP Flash Tool. After the process was completed it wont gave me any result because the phone still stucked on Mi logo..
I did'n tried the TWRP because in every tutorial tells me that i need to go to the Developer Mode and activate the USB debugging i can not access to that because the phone don't give me more than the Mi logo.
hmm the fastboot method should have worked. Have you tried it on another computer, maybe 32bit windows?
When finished flashing with miflash in fastboot did it say it was ok at the end or did it give you an error? Als tried to reboot a few times after flashing without usb cable in the phone?

Im losing my mind!
I tried again in my father's desktop wich have a 64bit windows 7 (I havent a 32 bit at home. I will try to get one borrowed)
I tried with the SP Flash Tool following a guide from "xiaomitips" and, in this computer, the program dornt even recognize my phone. I push the Download button but that give me no signal.
Is there any other way to do this? Other ways to put the rom in the phone? (Sorry the noob language)

I'm out of ideas at this point.
I had some trouble with fastboot that my phone did restart when in fastboot mode.
Then i had to change the order of plugging in the cable and starting the program but after that all worked.
No idea what next ...
I had this issue with a Redmi 3. I can't remember the exact solution but I believe you have to have the developer ROM installed in order to unlock the bootloader. Maybe if you search for an anterior model such as the Redmi 3 you will find more information on how to load your ROM. I'm sure that it's the same method for most Xiaomi phones. Good luck!
I heard about do a Hard Reset but i dont know how to do that because i cant access to the OS of the xiaomi.
Is there a way to do a hard reset with the xiaomi stucked on Mi logo?
Tks!
Happy 2017 for all!
I tried to put my phone one Recovery Mode but it is blocked. Its like the phone on this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTzdQpex7BQ

I never could get into the xiaomi recovery either but i managed to flash twrp through fastboot though.

Hi
Does your problem with sp flashtools and flashing the ROM be solved ?
Sent from my Redmi Pro
I had this problem, but I'd installed TWRP already. But you shouldn't need USB Debugging on to flash TWRP. If you manage to flash TWRP, flash a new ROM (I recommend xiaomi.eu (I think they have Portuguese)) and wipe the Dalvik cache, /cache, and /data (you probably won't have to wipe /data/media).
Miui themes
Sorry will start new item
Have you tried a different cable, that is why mine wasn't recognized at first.
I'm having the same problem here. The phone rebooted itself when I changed the locale, and hung at the Mi logo. I already had TWRP flashed. I also took the opportunity to install a new ROM; the Global Dev ROM. It installed with no errors and I wiped the Dalvik, cache, etc. Still hangs at the Mi logo, but this time without the little loading dots at the bottom. Any suggestions?
Update: I can bring it back to the original state with the loading dots and "powered by Android" at the bottom with a backup I took before flashing the new rom, but still no progress.
I managed to restore my phone using the video:
Flash Xiaomi Redmi Pro Using SP Flash Tool [Locked Bootloader]
I can't post links since I don't have enough posts here yet, but search for it on Youtube.
Update: It seems like the unlocking permissions on my account have been retroactively rejected, I wonder if that has something to do with it. I also can't seem to find the Global ROM for the Redmi Pro anymore, just the China one. Does anyone have a link for the official Global ROM on the Xiaomi site?
Update 2: Suddenly I have unlock permission again, without reapplying, so that's cool. I installed the Eu HMPro ROM, everything's working well so far.

You could try dowloading the official rom and then download the CHINESE version of mipc suite then enter fastboot and connect the phone
Normally the chinese mi pcsuite automaticly detects the phone is in fastboot mode, you could use google translate to translate it all just choose redmi pro on model selector (the top selection bar)the text there is untranslateable just choose the one that says pro
And then under it chose the one that translate to chinese
After That there's two tick box under it, choose the ROM you downloaded
After that chose the one that translate to install brush package, if it doesn't work choose the download brush package next to it
Thus method worked for me when my phone bricked hope it helps you

Bricked REDMI 3S with locked bootloader

I have a bricked redmi 3s prime. It is having locked bootloader.
First I had search for local repair center to fix it. But the shop guy said me to replace motherboard of device. But I'm not sure what is the exact issue with device, because I can still use recovery option as well fastboot.
I'm bit technical, so I thought it is software issue. So I thought to un-brick it myself. So I had tried almost many methods to un-brick it but not getting any success till yet.
The methods I have tried mentioned below.
1) From recovery, simply wipe data storage and try to turn on device. Waited for 20 mins on mi logo screen. No Success.?
2) Enter into fastboot mode (Device detected as some random string on PC) and simply try to flash both fastboot roms (Global and Developer) using MiFlash beta Tool. Even fastboot mode unable to flash those official roms. No Success.?
3) Enter into EDL mode using TestPoint method (Device detected as COM6 on PC). Again try with both roms MiFlash. After flashing each rom I had waited over 30 mins on MI logo screen, but nothing happens. No Success.?
One thing common while trying all above methods is that battery power less than 10%. I can not full charge device, because there is no way to turn off device if I'm not succeed with my steps.
So is there anything I'm still missing? Can someone help me with this?

Hard Brick? PLS help!

Hey! I NEED HELP!
I was on Lineage OS 17.1 and wanted to try this ROM.
I entered to TWRP, format data, install Pixel Experience, restart and freeze on "Mi" logo for about 15 mins so I decided to try a cleaner mode.
Entered in Fastboot mode to flash a fastboot ROM with XiaomiFlash and selected last global ROM (davinci_eea_global_images_V10.3.15.0.PFJEUXM_2019 0921.0000.00_9.0_eea, always used this)
Flash and after some seconds an error like "connection error", I changed USB door on PC, refreshed devices list on PC and flash again, an error like "not corrisponding version"
and from now the phone is DEAD!
Don't turn on if I connect to PC, to charge, hold button for 1 minute, totally DEAD!! Have I hard bricked my phone?
Ok i entered in EDL mode but Mi flash tell me "Only nop and sig tag can be recevied before authentication"

Sorry for you
I feel you must have flashed a fastboot chinese version instead of global.
Are you sure your model is a global MI9t and not a K20 reloaded global?
Now you have to go to service for Account certified in order to reset the phone.
Many offers are available on line.
Just a question:
Did you tick relock bootloader option in MIFLASH? (This can be the real mistake.)

Normally the re-locking is the very last step in Miflash/flash_all_lock.bat (so only after everything got flashed) so it doesn't seem to be bricked because of this, plus it'd actually boot and display "this MIUI can't be installed on your device" message.
Looks like in this case the USB connection got interrupted during the flashing which depending on the partition that was being flashed can be disastrous.
Is your phone still being detected by your PC? Can you put it to fastboot even if the screen shows nothing?
I had a similar case (with another phone) of an interrupted flashing that lead to an apparently dead device, but it'd still be able to boot into fastboot, just display nothing.
Otherwise, EDL is your only solution, and you need an authorized account for it...

Phone acting strange - Bricked?

Hi
My phone stopped working a couple of days ago, I had been running a custom rom for 2 mths. I tried to restart and boot to recovery TWRP as I was going to reflash the rom. It charegs with no lights, for a day I couldnt boot to TWRP if it did it stayed on the start screen with no options. Today I can get options in TWRP so I tried to start fresh install but intstallation stops at step 1 ?
I have no idea what happened to the phone or why it just died, but dont understand why I can get into TWRP but cant flash rom etc. Also sometimes it say system destroyed message? but still can get into TWRP ?
Any ideas or help will much appreciated really would like to fix this rather than write the phone off.
Thanks

Hi, been playing with this when i have time over the last few weeks.
I have been trying to flash firmware, I dont seem to be able to get QFIL to work for me, it wont reconsise the port. However MIFlash does but I get errors, sometimes it flashes but doesnt end? other times i have had error flashing modem_a or error flashing modem_b (maybe device is locked).
In ADB it says already unlocked. Also I can only boot into fastboot, not recovery so i cant intall anything from adb sideload, it wont boot into bootloader just powers off if i try this. I guess theres no recovery on it now as I cannot boot into it.
Any ideas on where to go from here , EDL? I really didnt want to attempt to open the phone.
Thanks
Try miflash 2019 with stock rom pie latest with edl mode
if bootloader unlocked You can enter edl mode via fastboot with the command 'fastboot oem edl'

Thanks, tried this, says success then just carries on , so i have to disconnect. However when then trying to boot the device it shows Android one logo and if im lucky after a few attempts it goes to the screeen saying Hi There, where you choose your language to set up the phone. However it nows seem to be unresponsve and frozen on that screen.
Im beginning to think its could be hardware issue and phone is just faulty, i really dont want to bin it as its imacculate condition seems a real shame, but it is 3 years old i guess.
Any further help or ideas much appreciated.

try doing a factory reset from Recovery , good luck

Might have bricked my Mi9T (non-pro) - Bootloop, XiaoMiTool V2

**EDIT**: Had to send the phone back as the bootloader was locked and nothing was flashing. I believe they EDL flashed it and all is good now. Unlocked the bootloader on the new one just in case this happens again, I will be able to fix
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BACKSTORY:
Okay, so I recently updated to MiUI 12 and it wasn't great. My apps were crashing all the time and the general stability was not good. (this was around a week ago)
Then earlier today, my device just went into the boot screen (the colourful MiUI one) and stayed there for over 30 mins.
I forcefully restarted my phone using the volume buttons and it would go into the first "Mi powered by android" screen and then back into the colourful MiUI screen.
Then it would stay in the MiUI screen for a minute or so, and then restart itself, continually repeating the process.
At this stage, I had no custom recovery, had not tried to tinker with the phone (other than disabling some default apps through FastbootTools), and everything was fine until MiUI 12 came.
WHAT I DID:
I was able to access the default XiaoMi recovery (3.0?) and tried to wipe the data and restart, but nothing would change.
I tried to use the MiPC Suite after selecting in recovery, but it would recognise my device, even after updating to latest version.
I tried to use FastBootTools, but that would also not recognise my device.
I tried to use XiaoMiTool V2 (by Francesco Tescari), and that did recognise my device. I selected "my device is bricked" option and it did its thing, downloading and trying to sideload something. And then on the device, it got stuck at 4.99% with a message "You won't be able to turn on your device if you try to reboot it", and on the XiaoMiTool, the progress was at around 400% and said -70 seconds remaining, and around 40000MB / 3000 MB or something along those lines. Basically, **** was ****ed.
So I just let it sit there for a bit and then the XiaoMiTool V2 gave and error, "miui sideload failed adb execution exception adb sideload exited with status 1"
I had 3 options,
"Retry step"
"Go back to previous step"
"Cancel and abort"
I tried to search what the error was, but all of the results came from years ago, for different devices. So I clicked "Cancel and abort", only for the device to remain unchanged (4.99%, You won't be able to turn on your device if you try to reboot it), while the XiaoMiTool V2 went back to the start screen.
So I tried it again, the "my device is bricked option", and went through the same steps, and now it is stuck at "Pushing file to the device via ADB, ..., Starting MIUI sideload procedure".
Now I am stuck. My phone screen just says
"4.99%, You won't be able to turn on your device if you try to reboot it"
and my XiaoMiTool is stuck on the beginning sideload procedure.
Closing
If you managed to read this far, thanks, even if you don't have a solution. I appreciate anything that could help with this situation.
U could use the official tool by xiaomi and install your stock miui 12 rom, it's called miflash
Idk about downgrade if u wanted to flash miui 11 i heard there is some problems related to that so, always try official xiaomi tools first before trying other stuff
Ps : if it doesn't detect ur device in miflash there is a button called update or install driver I don't remember exactly press it and u should be fine

I tried to install the drivers, and it says it was successful, but it still does not recognise my device in fastboot mode. However, it does seem to recognise my device in the default recovery, when selecting the "Connect with MiAssistant", which prompts to use the Mi PC Suite.
Any other ways to help it recognise in fastboot mode?

Try another computer and another USB port...
The solution will benunder fastboot. You have to unclock your bootloader and flash a custom twrp or flash a stock rom using miflash
