URGENT ! Bricked, no download, no recovery after upgrade attempt.

Just bought this phone and attempted to upgrade from 7 to 8 and before so i done few things such as disabling some google sh*t. It upgraded and stuck on booting screen, vibrating sometimes. How do i handle this ? XiaoMiFlash says : flash tz error. Also there's no recovery and download mode.

If you have updated to MIUI 8.1.1.0 then I am afraid you have no other option left than flashing fastboot rom with deep flash cable using test point method presuming you have locked BL. For more info visit http://en.miui.com/thread-310325-1-1.html
But if you are still on MIUI 7 then you can flash using Mi flashtool in EDL mode.
For entering edl mode press volume + and volume - button simultaneously( test mode) and after plugging in USB cable with PC enter in windows CMD:
PHP:
fastboot oem edl
. After that proceed with flashing using flash tool
.

you cant disable Music, Youtube, Chrome,blah blah,... but dont disable Google, it will cause bootloop.
i figured this out after 15 bootloops lol

What ?! What the is deep flash cable ?! I don't have one ! Maybe i should exchange my Redmi 3s in shop next monday. It's stuck at mi logo and 3 circles, vibrating frequently...
UPDATE : Phone enters some screen where shows phone and cable and link to Mi Pc Suite. I click recovery flash option, but i says that phone is up to date. When i click recovery, nothing happens. How do i force flash ? Maybe i will flash a recovery rom using this mode, it's visible via adb.

I have given you the link about how to make deep flash cable by yourself. Xiaomi has locked EDL mode post MIUI 8.0.3.0. So you wont be able to flash normally in EDL or Emergency Download mode. Now you are in bootloop so either you can unlock your bootloader and flash in fastboot mode, in this case you have to wait bit longer or you can make a deep flash cable and flash in the mode you have mentioned i.e MI logo with PC suite sign.

rahulbarai, Dude, I love you, you saved my skin, thought my smartphone had the "bootloader" unlocked, because on the home screen it appears "unlocked" but it was locked, unlocked now I can resurect normally and use the device, thank you very much!

Flash universal bootloader and the modem for A2017 from the lineage os thread. Then you should get radio signal again.

I don't know how to do It Can you give me more information please?

Is your bootloader unlocked? Do you have TWRP? If you do, go to the LineageOS thread (located over 'ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries') and download the 'A2017X Universal Bootloader' and 'A2017 Modem' from there (there should be a link to androidfilehost where the universal bootloader and modem files are located). Be sure that you download the A2017 modem file (NOT the A2017G or A2017U one!).
After that simply put them on your phone and flash them via TWRP

Are you sure you got Qualcomm drivers installed and your phone is in 9008 mode? Also try rebooting and re-enter 9008 mode. But the biggest problem that there is no qfil restoration files for x722 if I remember correctly, chances to boot with x720 ones are quite low.

Does your fastboot work volume and power down same time??

worked on the phone i got off amazon. thanks!
[quote name="wpbear" post=71566961]This works on lastest USA update Stock (21s).
Have ADB/Fasboot tools on your computer
Make sure you have enabled the developer tools, turned on USB debugging, and authorized your computer on your device
Put emmc_appsboot.mbn from this zip (Download: x727-5.8.019s_bootloader-unlock.zip) in your adb directory on your PC
Put twrp.img from this zip (Download: TWRP) in your adb directory on your PC
On PC open admin CMD prompt
go into fastboot mode on phone (hold power and VOL -)
on PC type:
fastboot devices
fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn
after flash force reboot using Power button. It will ask for a password, just ignore it and reboot back to fastboot by forcing power down then reboot to fastboot (hold power and VOL -)
on PC type:
fastboot devices
fastboot oem unlock-go
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
boot into twrp (force power down, then hold POWER and VOL +)
TWRP will boot, choose modify system. Choose wipe - then swipe to factory reset, when that is done - then advacned then format data
In TWRP ensure MTP is enabled. In Windows File Explorer the phone should be visibile. Drag and Drop your new ROM.zip, gapps.zip, SU.zip etc...
In TWRP INSTALL new ROM and other zips; choose wipe/dalvik/cache
If you unlock bootloader push power off until it goes off then put it back into fastboot flash twrp .img them power off again power on when phone vibrate volume down you see stock recovery then twrp.
Reboot System.

Yeah, that is the problem, I have the drivers and my computer recognize it, the problem, always show the error sahara.
And flash in fastboot no work because bootloader is block and not let me to do flash of anything.
Someone know how to create a qfil? I am developer and I could try but I not found tutorial how to do and I do not have it clear.

Every so often the same questions and the same answers.
You should read more. The X722 subforum is for something.
There is no qfil for X722, and there are no magic solutions of X720 / X727. This is an X722, it is locked and NOTHING of X720 / X727 is going to fix it.

Greetings.

How do people keep ending up with bricks? Guess I'll have to find a mod to contact them about stickying a thread about the x722 here about stock 26s. It's a bad idea. Never update your x722 to stock 26s, because your bootloader will get locked when you try to flash TWRP. The only way to get out of 26s is to flash Batyan's 01D ROM (in the x722 Development section here), and then unlock your bootloader and flash TWRP. Flashing TWRP over stock 26s will cause a permanent brick because there's absolutely no QFIL file available for this device. Even in China.

HELP! I Flashed a corrupted ROM and now I can not unbrick my phone

A few days ago I bought a Xiaomi Redmi Note 7, I unlocked its bootloader successfully and installed OrangeFox Recovery Project. After that, I installed xiaomi.eu ROM EMUI 12 - Android 10, the latest version of the weekly ROMs for this phone. Since it was a beta ROM, I found some bugs, so I downloaded the stable rom with EMUI 11, but I didn't notice that the zip was corrupted so OrangeFox return an error and I made the mistake of restarting the phone. It was stuck in boot logo and when I enter into fastboot mode, the PC doesn't recognize it. Also, the phone can not enter into recovery mode, it stucks in boot logo.
I have the drivers installed because I tested with another xiaomi en fastboot mode and this one is recognized.
I don't know what to do
Sorry for my english, but I am desperate to fix it. I would really appreciate if someone could help me, please.

it's ok , try format data from orangefox and flash a different zip/rom

The phone can not enter into recovery mode. :/

Can you enter into fastboot with poder off bottom + volume down ?
If you can then flash a fastboot ROM with mi flash
Check out not relock bootloader
Check "flash all" option https://update.miui.com/updates/v1/fullromdownload.php?d=lavender_global&b=F&r=global&n=

its easy
just unlock bootloader again with miflash unlock then flash any rom you like

youtu.be/7KyYp_lTR0k
i hope can help you

If your phone can still boot up. Just try to fastboot mode power+vol down. Install latest usb driver for PC. Then try one by one usb port you have on your PC. Because I experienced some usb port doesn't work. And if connected try to reinstall TWRP again.

Uses the previous version of twrp, try connecting the phone to another computer. Use xiaomi usb cable.

If you can put your phone in fastboot mode it's easy, 1) download stock rom. 2 ) unzip the file 3) open it ,and copy all files 3) open the file with ( xiaomi drivers ADB ) than : paste. From the files of the ROM you'll see
" flash all " connect your phone in fastboot mode double click "flash all " and flashing process will start immediately, don't remove your phone until it stops, done.

I was having issues with the android 11 so thought to downgrade. Since the system wouldn't allow me to do it from the local storage, I thought I will just install TWRP and then flash the OS that way but in the process, I don't know what went wrong but fastboot will flash the recovery but when I tried to boot to it with the command it put me to Qualcomm crash dump mode. I downloaded the MSM Tool as I have gone through this process before but for the millionth time, I just can't put my phone to EDL mode. Every time I try with the volume up+volume down, keep pressing it until I plug the cable into it, the phone just goes to fastboot mode.
TL;DR - only have access to fastboot, no recovery, can't even install recovery because of crashdump issue. Phone not entering into EDL mode tried pushing it from fastboot to EDL using commands but doesn't work. Since it is at fastboot every time, device manager sees it as android bootloader platform. Device manager sees it as Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E.
I've almost tried everything and I know device manager is supposed to see the device as 9008 for the MSM tool to work but it is NOT GOING INTO EDL MODE!!!!!
*sigh* any help will be really appreciated guys. Thank you.

I just did this. So what I did was since there were fastboot stock roms available but not for android 11, I downloaded one...ran it through payload dumper and copied these files to overwrite the one from 10.5.13. But when I did that and everything went 100% as it should. My phone was not turning on now...no response on button presses and no sound when connected to computer...I thought did I really became the first one to hardbrick a oneplus....then I just checked in device manager and it was showing as 9008 at the end..which meant it is EDL mode...that was exactly what I wanted. I immediately started MSM Tool and there it was then I just started and now my phone is back to normal along woth having OOS 10.5.13 exactly what I wanted so thank you for pointing my foolish mistake.

Just replying here because this was the only google result when searching the error messages. I could only get into fastboot, no edl, and recovery gave the error message about download mode. I noticed when holding both buttons down and plugging in it would come up as the Qualcomm USB thing 9008, but every 10s it would reboot again and if I wasn't holding the keys go into fastboot. The solution was...
Have the MSM tool started and ready
In the 5-10s you have while the device shows as Qualcomm USB (QUSB 9008 something) hit the start button
This kept it in that mode and although the screen never showed anything it went through the 300s restore and I was back to stock.

Bare in mind that EDL mode doesn't last very long (least it didn't for me)
So make sure you're ready to press start on MSM, once the process has initialized it'll keep it in that mode.
Found it out by trial and error. I too thought I couldn't get into EDL but it's probably the last thing that would fail on the phone, if fast boot is working then EDL almost certainly is too.
