Stuck in Fastboot - Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers

Hi all!
I have tryed to flash Android Q on my Redmi Note 7 (Global) everything seemed to go smooth till i rebooted and the deviced got stuck in fastboot mode, i tryed to flash TWRP, it goes OKAY but if i reboot i cant access recovery anyway.
I also tryed to use "fastboot boot recovery.img", it does send the image but fails to boot into recovery saying "failed to load/authenticate boot image..."
Am i doing something wrong? How can i solve this?
I thought of MiFlash Tool, but there are many version and some seems not to work properly can anyone provide a working link?
(Ofc, my bootloader is unlocked etc)
Thanks a lot

After you flash TWRP you can't access via command, because MIUI will re-write the recovery again once you restart, first flash the TWRP (fastboot flash recovery the-name-of-the-file.img) after that you must reboot to recovery manually by holding together "Volume Up + Power" until you see the MI logo, release "Power" button but keep pressing "Volume Up" until you see the recovery, after you are in TWRP, (mount the internal storage (Data) or if you already copied OrangeFox Recovery Zip to device) then just flash OrangeFox R10_2, it will reboot itself after that to the recovery again and that's all, you will have a custom recovery ready.
Now, if you already tried to flash the ROM and everything went wrong, I guess your device is bricked, now you need a FASTBOOT ROM for your device (if it's complete global = PFGMIXM / because there's global europe too, that's PFGEUXM) and the MiFlashTool, unzip the Fastboot ROM, open the MiFlashTool, load the ROM Folder in the tool while the phone is connected to the PC, and then just flash it, steps with images are in Xiaomi site, here's the link Fasboot Method
ps: the tool have below one option to flash and re-lock the bootloader, it will be selected by default, leave it like that if you want to re-lock it, or change it to clean all to leave it unlock it

Need help, bricked my 3s

Was supposed to flash CM13 Rom. I did a full wipe including system via TWRP.
Before flashing I decided to reboot into recovery, but it didn't. Only gets stuck in the MI logo now. Can't boot into recovery anymore.
I can go into Fastboot mode. Tried flashing twrp via ADB but whenever i type 'adb devices' in command prompt it says device is offline.
Tried to enter EDL via ADB in fastboot mode, it gets stuck at 'waiting for device'.
When plugged in PC, it gets detected as USB ADB interface
Bootloader was unlocked prior, was on xioami.eu ROM before this. I have TWRP system backup of last ROM installed.
Hoping someone can point me in the right direction on what to do next. Very much appreciated, thank you.
Hi Supdow,
I was facing with the same issue and I also thought I bricked my phone... No worries. To solve it is very easy, just unlock your bootloader again with Mi UnlockTool. Than you have access to your recovery again.
Good luck!

Was able to unlock bootloader again, but I still can't access recovery. I may have forgotten how to exactly do this since the last time I did it. What do i have to do after unlocking bootloader? I tried flashing TWRP via fastboot but it only gives me an error.
So you have a few options
1. Hold volume+ & - and power (if you have twrp)
2. Take fedosis twrp 3.1 and installer, put twrp 3.1 into extracted installer folder, then shift+right click on installer folder, open cmd, then type
fastboot flash recovery twrp_name.img
fastboot boot twrp_name.img (or do step 1)
3. Just flash dev/stable with miflash (recommendation: go into fastboot, then like step 2 go into cmd and type fastboot oem edl then flash mi rom)
Hope this helps

How do i root my Mi 9T Global Version?

Hey Guys,
Today I tried to root my new MI 9T. Since my phone is not the Pro version I had problems to find a guide.
I then found a guide and there as described the boot loader opened and then tried via Fastboot to flash on TWRP.
I get no error message so I thought everything would be successful. I then tried the mobile with "fastboot boot recovery.img" to restart.
From there I was stuck in the bootloop. I was able to successfully save the Mi 9T by editing the complete system with MiFlash.
The phone is back to normal, but the bootloader is still open. Can someone please give me a description of how I can root the phone successfully?
I would like to use Magisk so it would be nice if someone could help me flash recovery and root the phone without flashing the OS again. (Softbrick)
Hello
It's nice if you already opened/unlocked the bootloader of the phone.
You got a bootloop after flashing TWRP, it generally means you flashed an incompatible TWRP for your MIUI version/phone model.
Download "Latest stable" Magisk version => https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v19.3/Magisk-v19.3.zip
Copy this "zip" file on the root of your phone.
See this topic to check and download TWRP => https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-9t/how-to/twrp-versions-xiaomi-mi-9t-t3955946
After flashing a correct TWRP image => "fastboot flash recovery <twrp_file_name>.img", don't do "fastboot boot recovery.img" but instead do:
Keep pressing "Vol+" button on your phone and write "fastboot reboot", wait until TWRP is launched before releasing "Vol+".
Use your PIN/Password code used for unlock your phone to decrypt data => always keep system "read-only" => Install => Flash "Magisk-v19.3.img" => Reboot.
Voilà!

Recoveries and ROMs for redmi note 7 are compatible with redmi note 7s. When you install the recovery for the first time you have to reboot to recovery with vol+ and power button without reboot to system (if you reboot to system miui overwrite the custom recovery with the stock one). I reccomend to use orangefox as recovery

After flashing the recovery in fastboot mode don't use the command line to reboot in recovery but hold together the vol+ and power buttons until the recovery boot up.

Try to flash the recovery in fastboot then disconnect the phone from your pc and reboot to recovery with vol+ and power.
Which recovery are you trying to flash?

From the orangefox thread:
#1. INSTALLING ORANGEFOX RECOVERY FROM STOCK MIUI RECOVERY (adb/fastboot method):
You need a PC for this. If you do not have a PC, or access to a PC, then you are stuck!
1. Install adb, fastboot, and the relevant USB drivers onto your PC
2. Install the Mi Flash tool onto your PC
3. Download the correct OrangeFox zip file to your phone, and to your PC
4. Extract recovery.img from the OrangeFox zip file, and copy recovery.img to your PC’s adb directory
5. Reboot your phone into fastboot/bootloader mode
6. Unlock your bootloader
7. Open up a command line window on your PC
8. Change to the adb directory on your PC
9. “Hotboot” OrangeFox by running the command: fastboot boot recovery.img
** Note: some devices do not like the "fastboot boot ..." command (eg, lavender). You must NOT run this command on those devices. Rather, you should boot into OrangeFox by using the Power+Vol+ hardware key combination.
10. After OrangeFox has booted up, check that everything is working – eg, that it has mounted the data partition successfully, and that the touchscreen works.
11. Select “Install”, then find and select the OrangeFox zip, and swipe to install it
12. After installation, the phone will automatically reboot into OrangeFox
13. Enjoy!
If that doesn't work try to ask directly in the orangefox thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...al-orangefox-recovery-project-t3941822/page39

THANKS... this Orange will do? https://forum.xda-developers.com/re.../official-orangefox-recovery-project-t3941822
AND but HOW to do numbere 4? (how to put it adb director?)
HOW to do number 8? ( how to change adb directory?)
In NUMBER 9, if i put @fastboot flash recovery (recovery file put here by dragging)@ is it okay?
okay, if i put the COMMAND the orange will be bootup as recovery? because NUMBER 10 AND 11 makes no sense...
Nishat islam

Phone bricked

I was a running my Redmi note 7 with DerpFest rom and with Ofox custom recovery
The phone suddenly got into a bootloop and now I can only access the fastboot screen (not even the Custom recovery screen)
How can I proceed to reinstall the sistem and the Custom Recovery?
I've already downloaded Minimal ADB and fastboot ulitily to make things faster
Edit: Also, I couldn't get the MiFlash program working, some errors are happening

Just copy the ZIP file of the ROM and flash, as you dos when you first installed. Maybe just wipe caches

Try to reflash the recovery with fastboot first. Need to have xiaomi usb drivers installed to can use adb/fastboot connection. When the phone is in fastboot mode connect with a good (original) USB cable and check the connection with "fastboot devices" command in cmd/powershell window. Extract and use "recovery.img" from latest orangefox zip file. Flash to phone using "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" command then reboot holding together "Volume Up + Power" until you see the MI logo, release "Power" button but keep pressing "Volume Up" until you see the recovery. When you have working orangefox recovery, try to flash new rom. More information about driver/fastboot/recovery here (skip "unlock the bootloader" part): https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-7/how-to/one-redmi-note-7-unlock-bootloader-t3890751
The MiFlash program issue can be caused by missing/wrong xiaomi usb driver, if you will have answer from "fastboot devices" command (phone detected), can try the MiFlash again, just be careful: DON'T LOCK the BOOTLOADER. Good luck.

What adb returns?
If you are in fastboot, try to turn off phone and immediately push vol+ and power on boot for a few seconds.
If that won't work make sure you flashed the correct recovery and phone is detected in adb

which twrp you have?
You want to install custom rom or what?
Copy the rom to internal storage.
Reboot to fastboot
install twrp
"fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img"
fastboot reboot with vol +
If the twrp shows the files install the rom and then go to
wipe/format data -- > yes
If not showing the files , first format data
reboot recovery
copy rom to internal (in twrp mode)
then install the rom
