Mi A1 not booting (Stock ROM no modifications, locked BL) - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

Hello,
My Mi A1 stuck in bootloop after update from android 8.0 to 8.1. The bootloader is locked and I can't unlock it until I boot into the system to allow unlocking. Any suggestions on what to do? (MiFlash also doesn't work, It needs unlocked bootloader) Maybe I could use the "Update from ADB/SDcard" options. But I don't know how.
Thanks

That is not an option for me. I don't have the tools to open A1.

Cannot boot Mi A1 after locking bootloader

Hi could I ask because i lock my bootloader on Mi A1 but unfortunately the device didn't boot up.
Now, I am trying to unlock bootloader to fix my device and it won't unlock FAILED (remote: oem unlock is not allowed).
I am on May latest security patch build. Please help me.
Did you try reflashing ROM with Mi Flash tool? Use "Save user data" option there.

I think you tried to lock your phone after rooting your device. You'll have to try to switch to fastboot mode by volume down + power after vibration. Then use flash using Mi flash tool
I cannot do that, the bootloader is locked and I am on May security patched. Those fastbook oem unlock and fastboot flashing unlock methods won't work. I believe only testpoint is the solution to my problem.
Stuck with the exact same problem....did u find the solution

Reboot to fastboot power+volume down then reboot to edl mode by typing "fastboot oem edl" in your adb your phone will turn black. Open miflash and click "refresh" if you see "com#X" it means its connected then flash the fasboot file you downloaded in mi forums after finish press and hold power until it restarts.

A2017G How to relock bootloader on Nougat B10

I came back from LOS 16.0. Flashed A2017G_B10_NOUGAT_FULL_EDL in EDL but there's a warning that my bootloader is locked. I wanted to relock it but the warning prevents me from entering bootloader or fastboot (or maybe they are not even present....). Next I flashed A2017U_FASTBOOT_UNLOCK_EDL in MiFlash but it did not do anything. It flashed OK but I still cannot access fastboot. Should I flash some marshmallow rom? Thanks in advance.
I have the same problem. Cannot enter fastboot mode on Nougat ROM.
Ok I found the way usin Axon 7 Toolkit
1. Set the Android version to 7 using option 13
2. Perform unlock bootloader
Following instruction Axon & Tookit gives you EDL image of the proper fastboot partition giving the possibility to enter fastboot mode
then fasboot oem lock
I wanted to say thanks that works, but apparently my phone is bricked now - it hangs on green ZTE logo. PC recognizes it as DFU. Cannot enter EDL either. I guess I look for some guide how to recover from this situation
Managed to fix that. Somehow I was able to enter fastboot. It said my bootloader was locked so i flashed TWRP and from TWRP using ADB installed stock Nougat rom

If you was able flash twrp mens your boolaeder was unlocked?
No there's a TWRP that works on locked bootloader.

The only solution that worked for was to flash stock 7.8.23 rom with miflash by connecting my phone in EDL mode and as I was still in bootloop I remembered that on nougat the command oem unlock could be done ... But when I finally managed to recover an operating system my imei was gone to zero 0 ... I was able to solve with software QST 2.7 and restore my IMEI ... A month of galère lol

I had the same problem, but I've got a low-level backup made with cosmicdan's tool and It restored everything.

How to prevent unlock bootloader (Newest build V10.0.17.0 android 9)

I just reflash my Mi A1 to latest build android P V10.0.17.0. But I relized I could still unlock boot loader though I didn't enable OEM unlocking in Development option, I just boot to fastboot mode and type fastboot oem unlock and it alway OK. I also turn on Find device or set passcode.

hmm... maybe a factory reset would work but if you want to relock your bootloader I strongly suggest backing up app data using TWRP.
Yes, I already backup data. But I don't know why it can be unlocked while not allowed.

I have a little problem... Mi9t locked bootloader, bricked

Good Morning
I wanted to flash a Global Rom to my Xiaomi Mi9t. I did this with MiFlash, but i forgot to click on "clean", so the default option "clean and lock" was enabled. It failed to install this version and now the device is locked and is also bricked, it only starts into recovery and fastboot.
I hope someone can help... =)
try flashing the the latest fastboot firmware via XiaomiFlash.
