Hi there,
I am using the MI A1 for at least 1 year but never faced any issue. But after recent update its crashing all the time and now it is stucked on boot loop mode. I think my device is bricked. I am not sure whether it is because of recent update but its started 2 days after updating. I know I can unlock the boot loader via recovery and flash the OS again but at the same time I don't want to lose my data. Is there any way to recover data from fast boot mode or any other way.
Please note that I was on stable version running stock 8.1.0 version.
Requesting your quick and positive response.
From fastboot mode, boot twrp there you have a file manager in the advanced options and from there you can copy to sd card or directly to your pc
But I guess to install TWRP I have to unlock the bootloader first and doing so my data will be erased. And I don't want to do that. Is there any alternate way to to install the TWRP?

I unlocked the BL and flashed an International Developer MIUI two years ago, and it has been working fine.
I want to flash a stable ROM now. the miui website gives three approaches (system update, recovery update, fastboot update).
I first tried system update, but the system cannot proceed.
then for recovery update, volume up + power button enters Teamwin (TWRP), not the recovery interface shown in the official guide.
then fastboot update, unfortunately the MIFlash tool does not recognize the phone in fastboot mode.
so I went back to TWRP, clicked Install, and installed this ROM: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V9.2.1.0.MALCNEK/miui_HM3S_V9.2.1.0.MALCNEK_fe706c31c4_6.0.zip
which I saved to the phone storage earlier.
now the phone is in a bootloop , stuck at "mi" boot screen. somehow I can still enter fastboot mode, but I don't know what I can do to save it.
please help me , thanks
Trying to make guide for that
I just resently came out from hard bricked

Hi,
I am on p8 lite 2017 PRA LX1
I have succesfully flashed twrp however I cannot boot into my OS. When I boot normally it loops twice then takes me to huawei eRecovery where I just get an error if I attempt to install the updates from it. or I can boot into fastboot normally.
How can I fix this? Do I need to flash a new OS? Also I want to get magisk on my device via sd card since I dont already have the zip file on my internal storage. Will it work fine considering I cant boot to my home screen?
Many thanks
Using the miflash tool I flashed stock firmware (some version of android 8) after previously having a custom ROM installed. Everything worked fine until I rebooted after updating to the latest version using OTA.
My phone never got past the android one screen where it would freeze part way through, and after removing my sim card I could get to the pin unlock screen before the lock screen but after inputting the correct pin it would reboot and ask me for it again and again. I can get into fastboot fine but since usb debugging wasn't enabled and my bootloader is locked I can't reflash.
Booting into recovery also only brings me to a screen where the android mascot has a red triangle with an exclamation mark and a message saying "No command", so I can't factory reset.
Is there anything I can do to unlock the bootloader in this state or factory reset? (all flash tools and fastbooting into TWRP require the bootloader to be unlocked which in turn requires usb debugging to be activated)
Thanks for your time.
Update: I messed around with stuff on the cli based tissot tool and used option 2 to boot me into TWRP. It didn't do that but brought me into android where a system process kept repeatedly closing until a random factory reset happened.
I then got into normal android for a bit before I had to reboot (did remember to unlock the bootloader this time). I can now install twrp fine but every time I install the stock rom using miflash or try to install resurrection remix through twrp I get the same bootloop issue.
For some reason also my internal storage is completely empty no matter what i do so i need to sideload roms via sd card. And sometimes twrp gives me the error "failed to mount /system"
Trying the latest version of LineageOS next.
Update 2: if you have the same issue I had, the only working fix I've found is this restore point for twrp. Have not tried to update yet in case it breaks again but will make a final update with how that goes.
[SOLVED] Mi A1 BOOTLOOP
THIS PROBLEM IS VERY ANNOYING!! (The reason is because i didn't backup EFS before i flash Custom ROM) And I would like to share how to RESOLVE it. **your phone must be Unlocked Bootloader. Search Google how to do it. (Quick tip: in Fastboot...

I successfully rooted the phone and installed magisk etc. but I want to further and wanna mess around a bit. So I need TWRP to back up my everything. However, whenever I flash TWRP to both slots phone deletes OS or TWRP claims so. Therefore I flash the OS and do all the things over again and the cycle continues. What can be the cause for TWRP deleting OS or saying so. Is it can be caused I flash the wrong TWRP? I used tool all in one to only boot to twrp but it just stucks me in the fastboot logo and nothing happens for long time. I know when flash it it boots in seconds.
And for FTM mode I try to enter the ftm mode but it stucks on boot logo and doesnt bring any chinese characthers again for long time. What can be the cause?
All the helps would be appreciated,
Thanks in advance.
Hello,
I was trying to downgrade my phone from the beta to Android 12 and it's now stuck in Fastboot mode. Won't let me enter recovery. Tries to boot but just stays on the nothing logo. My bootloader is unlocked. I'm assuming I need the same firmware I was running to reload onto the phone. Any other files needed?
Thank you so much! cheers

I can't enter recovery mode. Only fastboot.
Flash boot and vendor_boot and you'll be right back in recovery
If it's not booting try set active slot to either a or B and flash the images mentioned above

I'm having a similar issue coming off a fastboot stuck device. I guess I managed to delete the recovery mode from slot B so I can't get into fastbootd to flash some of the lower level partitions to make my fingerprint sensor work.
The vendor_image is the recovery?
Did you guys find any solution? I am stuck with my phone stuck in the bootloader mode and I can't seem to do anything.
Here's what I did:
1) Unlocked bootloader while being on NOS 1.5.1 Beta. Successfuly did it.
2) Restarted my phone to bootloader mode and flashed dtbo, boot and vendor_boot from SuperiorOS 11th Feb build.
3) Proceeded to restart to recovery as mentioned in the instructions but instead of restarting to recovery, it restarted to bootloader.
4) Stuck in bootloader mode ever since!
Nothing seems to be working. I have tried literally everything but cannot get past the bootloader. Please help. I don't have any secondary device to use.
