i read that mi5 cannot use EDL mode, wondering if its the same for redmi note 3
May be then we need to use deep flash cable in this case
its probably because EDL flashing doesnt need an unlocked bootloader which is not really good for your devices security since any one can flash fastboot roms via EDL mode and reset your device unlike fastboot flashing!
but i have flashed new MIUI versions via EDL and there was no problems!

Hello guys,
I am using kenzo, and my bootloader is officially unlocked, today i tried flashing miui rom using miflash beta tool on my 32 bit system in fastboot mode, it shows flashing started and done in just 1-3 seconds and success message appears but when i flash using edl it successfully flashed.
Am i doing anything wrong? Or is there any other way of flash using fastboot mode (unlocked bootloader officially)?
Thanks in advance
Anybody, please........
Plz guys, please

You are not supposed to flash in fastboot mode!!!! For MiFlash to work, you need to get your phone into EDL (Emergency Download) Mode, the one in which the screen shows nothing and only the LED blinks in RED.
Connect your phone to PC in that EDL mode, and then open MiFlash. And as far as I remember, you need to have a 64-bit windows to run the latest MiFlash.
If u connected successfully, click on the Refresh button, and it will show something like COM1/COM2... etc. Then CLICK on Flash.
Have u tried with latest version of miflash tool..try it properly...?or u can flash it through cmd...just google it for the commands.. Try at ur own risk...I am happy with edl on miflash 15.something

I don't think there is any other way other than the EDL method for flashing official ROMs.
I just wanted to know that is there any method that helps flashing roms using unlocked bootloader because there are lot of guides on internet saying flash rom with locked bootloader so i wanted to know is there a plus point in flashing roms with unlocked bootloader
If you have unlocked BL you can flash via twrp or fastboot or EDL, so three options...
EDL if others two dont work
Look fastboot & recovery both are there for a reason,
What i feel the priority of recovery is 1st for flashing almost anything
(If Modem/Firmware or anything else seems to have causing the problem)
USE fastboot & if you are hardbricked or can't figure out what you are missing only then head over for EDL.
But don't EDL>>Fastboot>>Recovery
Now to address your questions more specifically
Loked Bootloaders are good for Security but not friendly when you are a TWRP addict on the other hand Un-Loked Bootloaders puts the responsibility of security on your hands allowing you to modify whatever partitions or files you want to change on system.
With a loked bootloader you may flash a rom but sooner or later you will realize its better to have it unloked if u love to be a tinker.

hi there,
i have got a redmi note 3 pro that keeps stuck in bootloop.
Tried:
- boot to fastboot
- fired up miflash
- rebooted phone to edl
-miflash recognized phone
- flashed "kenzo" fastboot rom (tried global stable + kenzo_global_images_V7.1.8.0.LHOMICL_20160129.0000.14_5.1_global + chinese stable)
phone remains stuck in bootloop after restart.
Is there something I am missing? Please help me out.
(I guess bootloader is locked, not my phone)
when in fastboot mode, check the state of your device (make sure you have fastboot installed):
-connect device to pc
-open cmd
-type "fastboot oem device-info"
once you know the bootloader is unlocked, open miflash tool and flash the stock ROM. I don't see you need to go to EDL mode. Miflash is for fastboot mode!
how did you not knowing the condition of your bootloader? you should know it in the first place before you do such things.
oh, and make sure the directory of your rom image doesn't have spaces in it (example: C:/Users/Ivan Kurnia/...) (be safe, move it to like C:/Desktop) otherwise it will only take 1 second to flash the rom (which flashing didn't happen)
Thank you for your ideas, I still dont know if bootloader is locked or not, because it is not my phone, I was just asked to help.
However I managed to flash TWRP, now everything is good.

Try to boot twrp using fastboot boot but it didn't show any. I came up with the idea to flash. Img using cmd into the system that i restore, begin with the boot.img nothing will happen. Until i flash the vbmeta.img, then it begin to show boot img and eventually access twrp. I wiped everything and flash again a brandnew rom miui12 and it works well now..

Could you explain? My phone is stuck at fastboot and my pc doesn't detect the phone.
if u could access your phone via fastboot / adb then it wasn't a hardbrick , just a softbrick

You should check first the driver of your computer. Make sure you have the driver of your phone to your computer. After that you can check your device via adb by using commnd on cmd "adb devices".

I have the same problem. I tried also this one, but nothing.
Everything goes ok in CMD, but when I type:
fastboot boot twrp.img
I get:
FAILED (remote: Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error)
I still can't go in Recovery, neither turn off the phone. How solve this?!

flash boot twrp.img?
What do you wanna do?
If you want to boot into TWRP it should be
Code:
fastboot boot recovery "name-of- recovery.img"
If you want to flash TWRP it should be
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "name-of-recovery.img"
Your command
fastboot flash boot twrp.img should flash the recovery image over the boot image?
If you want to boot into twrp you should use the command above.
As far as I know not every device/firmware is able to boot into TWRP. It seems other users were able to do so with a mi 9t so my advice would be:
- Try another usb port / cable.
- Check twice if you renamed the twrp image correctly
- Try another twrp version (older one or unofficial)

Thank you. Actually I was confused in the transcript here, I meant fast boot instead of flash.
But I figured out to use XiaomiFlash Tool to install a ROM via fastboot, and then reinstall a recovery.
The popup camera is not working good with the XIAOMI official rom (It tries to close the cam even if it is already closed). Now I'm trying to install Havoc OS to try to solve those problem, but it demands me the miui v11.0.4 or new (error in twrp), even if I have the miui v12.... trying to figure out why
for the guys whome are stuck on fastboot, you may try "XiaoMiTool V2". this bought my Mi9T from fastboot to life.
make sure all the drivers are installed as well. what's better is install usb drivers, reboot computer, enable usb debugging, connect the phone to computer, select transfer data, wait till the computer completely setup your phone, turn off phone and connect to computer, wait till computer detects and setup, put the phone on fastboot mode and connect, check whether computer shows android device... once everything are confirmed then proceed with flasing.. :good::good:

This command - fastboot flash vbmeta worked.

Unbricked my bootloop (recovery) after upgrading from miui 12 (android 10) to 12.5 android 11.
thanks!
Hi, so several months ago i installed MIUI 12 weekly to my Xiaomi Mi A3, and now I wanted to upgrade to the stable release. When i was flashing a boot image file, after restart, my twrp dissapear. I tried to flash the rom using Mi Flash on PC, but i touched the cable and the phone disconnected, locking the bootloader in the process. I have no OS, my bootloader is locked. Is my phone truly dead?
I also forgot to uninstall Magisk root from my phone, so it's my full mistake. adb doesn't recognize my phone. I can only turn on the phone, leave it on boot until the battery drains, or the fastboot. Is there any chances that I can save my phone?

I can't. It says i cannot flash while in Lock State. Basically i can't do anything without unlocked bootloader.
well unlock it, you have 2 comands to put.
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
FAILED (remote: Token Verify Failed, Reboot the device) after i used the commands you told me.
What should I do next?
And Mi Unlock tool can't unlock the device, because I need to change some settings in Developer Options, and I have no rom.
did you try switching slots?
fastboot getvar current-slot
Getvar Variable not found
f###,
then only some recovery option with
mi tools.
Download mi a3 platform tool file then download fastboot and fastboot unlock critical file paste these both in platform tool folder then plug device through fastboot to pc then first click on fastboot unlock and then fastboot unlocking critical it will be unlocked then install the rom through mi flash
