[SOLVED] Dead phone? - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

So i rooted my phone and i wanted to install GCAM using this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/how-to/tool-google-camera-root-magisk-enable-t3747585 and it doesn't turn on now.. It shows the xiaomi screen for like half a second and just turns black.. It vibrates, it charges (i think) but my PC doesn't see it. LED Is showing nothing.

I can't do anything. I tried entering fastboot with buttons, it vibrates, but pc doesn't see anything..
EDIT:: It turns on, the fastboot screen shows for a second, the light aswell and it turns off...
EDIT:: After like 10-15 of trying to get into fastboot it worked and i managed to flash it.

Hold the red and green button down and press and hold the power/reset button on top and wait until a screen pops up.

Typically you put it in bootloader mode and then reflash as normal. Are you not able to get in to bootloader mode?

I can on a good day.. The phone is very unstable for the moment.. But when i try to flash a new ROM from Bootloader, Active Sync can't detect the device. Is that normal?
The phone is unlocked, and it shows "USB" on the screen when i plug the USB in Bootloader..

Yes. All you have said above is absolutly normal. When you see the "USB" just flash it. Have you ever flash your device before?

jeez, hold down up volume button for 60 secs and connect to pc,see if is recognized as QHUSB_DLOAD then u just use QPNST or LGNPST.
there are other combinations that may make that work.
yes i can see under device manager QHUSB_DLOAD, can i save my phone?

Read a little further it tells you how to get into it...
Now get your N4 into download mode:
Turn the phone off.
Make sure the phone is off.
Plug a USB cable into your PC, AND ONLY INTO YOUR PC. THE PHONE PART COMES NEXT.
Hold down the volume up and down buttons for 2 (two) seconds on your Nexus, and continue to hold the volume up and down buttons while pluging in the USB cable which is connected to your PC. Continue to hold the buttons until the download mode screen appears. Now step five.
Once the download mode screen comes up, let go of the volume buttons.
Thanks to @Connor Baker for sharing this method
Now you should get a screen like this: (PIC OMITTED)

Seems like you have a history with bricking phones, sorry I can't help but I think you need to rephrase your question.to get better results.
A developer would probably be the best type of person to help you but you start with "thanks to a stupid developer" see my point here?
i just flashed the 4.4 kitkat bootloader with nexus 4 toolkit, and boom, bricked..
btw i can't going into download mode, first becouse i can't turn off the phone or see if the phone is turned off, the screen is black.. then i don't understand how to enter in download mode, i have to press volume + and volume - for 2 second after? i have to release the button and repress it? i'm not english and the guide isn't perfect, i cannot understand
nothing, i try and the best result is having the red dot on the led, no fastboot or download mode, is dead.. i have to send it to lg, but.. i have the back glass broken, it's a problem for the warranty? i don't want to fix the glass, just this error

I'd go through those threads I linked you to and try it, it does show in QHSUSB_DLOAD mode.
You've got nothing to loose at this point
Edit...Call Google and see what they say.
Good Luck
i try, but i read like all the post and i try everything write in the post..
You flashed a wrong boot loader and your phone is really bricked! There's nothing you can do about it. And I'm pretty sure it's only your fault and nobody else's!

i know it's my fault but i flashed a nexus 4 bootloader, not nexus 7, s4 or other, that's make me angry.......

boot loops at recovery???

So I have done some searching but nothing I've tried help or not the same issue.
I was trying to root everything seemed to go fine. Phone reboots and now all it does is goes to a screen with blue letter at the top left that says recovery and then reboots. I've tried to power button home button volume key combo same thing happens. Phone keeps looping, so I pull the battery. As soon as I put it back in it starts looping again, even without me trying to turn it on.
Am I screwed? I have tried adb but it cant find the device, I assume because it keeps rebooting. Does Samsung have something like the HTC RUU or would that not matter because of the boot loop?
Any help would be great!
Thanks

If you cannot get into download or recovery mode by using the
Home+VolumeDown+PowerButton or Home+VolumeUP+PowerButton
then you will need to purchase a "USB JIG" from an online store or from
eBay, it's very inexpensive $5.00 or less shipped.
You plug it into the USB port of the phone after the phone is fully
powered down. After doing that it takes less than 3 seconds for
the phone to go into "download mode" automatically.
Once its in download mode and you unplug the jig you can Odin
flash the official stock firmware/rom and have a fresh start.
I have been using a JIG for years on many models of Samsung Android
phones and it works GREAT! It even worked perfectly on a friends HTC.
Good luck!

[Q] Can someone help with the solution?

Hey guys,my phone will automatically turn itself on when i insert my battery. Then after the Samsung logo, the screen automatically turns black. I first suspected that it was a battery problem, but that did not turn out to be the case. I think it has something to do with the power button. I also tried to boot it up into recovery mode but the screen still went black before i had the chance to do anything. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Even with the charger on?
Why you said that the battery is ok?
It's definitely a stuck power button
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Free mobile app
Try to let the battery drain and make the phone die, then try to charge it when its off and get to download from when its off.
Also have you tried a jig to get into download mode and stay there?

hello and thanks in advance. I recently installed twrp on my device and somehow deleted entire os. while in twrp I was informed of this but as luck would have it experienced a power outage, phone died and now adb is not finding device. since deleting os is it possible to get comp to locate it? all I get is the blue led and if I try to volume down power to boot recovery ligts go out. I do get a chime saying something is connected to comp but I cannot locate it. any advice would be great.
Have you tried to follow instructions to reflash TWRP? Can you put the phone in bootloader/fastboot mode?

as I stated earlier the only sign of life is the blue led. no screen sound or vibration nor does it seem to have anything but attemptin the adb by buttons did cause the blue led to turn off. its using battery as if smething is running its like a completely clean slate nothing at all
Unclear to me if you tried my post instructions to get into fastboot mode. If that's not working, I'm not sure what can be done other than sending phone to Huawei for repair. Maybe someone else has another idea? Good luck

Maybe missing something here but if can get to TWRP, power off then on holding volume up, you can flash any rom. Not volume down on my phone to get to TWRP, is volume up.
Good catch on the volume up button.

No way if you don't have adb working. Again, if you hold volume up button while pressing power on button, then release power on button as soon as you see boot screen, do you get recovery screen?
No screen reaction at all. Only the led when connected by us to computer it seems to charge and led stays lit blue after fully charged and red when still charging. I was hoping maybe there was a shell comand that would maybe push data enough to get into recovery at least.
