I Tried to flash my redmi note 4 china but i was failed to get succes but i choosed format+download option in sp flash format was successful but the firmware was not succesfully installed now my phone is bricked what do now
try stock custom rom & flash via fastboot.
Is your model with SD 625 processor? If so, sp tool won't work on it.
If yours is the SD 625 one then you're lucky.
My phone was bricked, stuck on mi logo for hours, this is what I did to flash global fastbootrom and got it up n running. But mine had bootloader unlocked and usb debugging on.
Go to
en.miui.com/a-234.html
1) download MIUI ROM flashing tool
2) download the ROM of your choice from this page.
3) install the flashing tool
4) unzip ROM (use 7zip tool) to the folder where u've installed the tool & rename the parent folder of the ROM to something simple like ROM (usually c:\xiaomi\rom
5) open up the app, select the location of your ROM folder (step 4)
6) press refresh, it should show your device connected
7) choose what you want from the options in the bottom right of the app i.e.
I: clean all > like factory reset, all data gone, brand new or
ii: save user data > this installs the system, but leaves apps n user data intact > if you chose a different ROM then when I had on, can't say if this will be safe to do, better install as fresh.
8) press flash and wait for it to finish.
9) reboot phone, enjoy!
Hope this works

I had a chance to get my hands on this "crappy" piece of device , helping some friend ... so ,
i've tried your tutorial and the phone was stuck in a loop (loading circle ... ) , so i've tried modding the simlock file which worked :fingers-crossed: !
I have used this firmware (click after creating account and login on that website , post link here)(MT6735M_S00_EMMC_Vodafone_VFD 500_6_0_alps-mp-m0_mp1-V2_39_1_jhz6735m_35u_vf_m_P197(2017_07_31_18_14) and SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1828_Win) the scatter file with the modded simlock can be downloaded from here (*this also contains twrp recovery and root zip , flashable with the same sp flash tool by loading scatter file) what i did was to first follow your tutorial , format all partitions , then download the firmware into the phone without the simlock file, since that wasn't working (stuck in a loop) , i went into modding the simlock file (from the firmware above) with a hex editor and then download (only ! no format !! ) the simlock file into the phone (load scatter file in the sp flash tool , select download and check box only for the simlock file (*the modded one) and reboot it , worked like a charm , phone booted in a blink and started processing (app processing , creating dalvik cache etc) , i've tried an orange *operator / network sim and worked ! .
TIPS : YOU CAN TRY JUST TO DOWNLOAD ONLY THE MODDED SIMLOCK FILE INTO YOUR PHONE USING SP FLASH TOOL BY LOADING THE SCATTER FILE (ZIP LINK ABOVE) WITHOUT FLASHING THE WHOLE FIRMWARE , IT MIGHT WORK AS WELL , SINCE THE FILE IS FLASHED ... GO CLEAR CACHE FROM THE RECOVERY MENU AND REBOOT YOUR DEVICE , DON'T FORGET TO REPORT HERE .
I initially wanted to create a separated thread for this but since i've found this post via google i believe is more helpfull for the others by writing all this in here :silly: .
Hello community
Can someone please give me valid links and tutorials for unlock this phone, i´ve been here for more than 6 hours looking on how to do this, but there´s always a software or file missing. I can´t even install the USB drivers, or find a TWRP properly.
What a headache..
Thanks in advance
Hello everyone.
Small Intro:
So, I bought Note 10 [Exynos] N970F. I wanted to use custom rom on it. I tried both Dr. Ketan's ROM and 420 Rom. Both of these roms were surely amazing and Dr. Ketan's rooting guide really helped in rooting and all things. Such a kind person to help for new comer.
As there are only these two roms at the moment and AOSP roms are either not available or very old with incomplete guide to flash. So after trying many different ways for flashing Generic System image (GSI) for my device. After series of failures, bootloops as I surely found some method to actually install GSI on N970F
Tested GSI
Havoc 3.8
Descendants
CrDroid v222 200816
Type of GSI to Use for our device:
ARM64-AB (As known as ARM64-bvN)
What's working:
Sim/IRC
Calls
Data/4g
Bluetooth
Wifi
Camera
Storage
Sensors
NFC/Location/Hotspot
Bugs:
MTP/USB connection not working
FingerPrint not working with Descendants Rom
(Can't confirm any further bugs. If you found please report so I can update thread)
Don't do anything without reading 4th Post (Disclaimer)
Your phone's internal storage will be wiped, deleting all of your data so make a backup
Prep:
1: Download firmware for your phone (Extract firmware and copy AP file to phone)
Either Use Frija or This website (Make account here, connect to GDrive and you can download from google server or IDM. Fast, Resume)
2: Download TWRP for your phone (It is better to have TWRP based on same base as is your phone's firmware download)
See here for TWRP (Usually has updated twrp) or see telegram of developer
(Extract twrp zip to have recovery.img. If it has different name, save it as "recovery.img", We will call it twrp-recovery.
3: Download Magisk Manager, install on phone
4: Patch AP file you copied to phone with Magisk Manager (Run magisk manager, --Install --> Select & Patch file --> Select AP)
A new file "Magisk-Patched.tar" will be saved in download folder. Copy it to PC. We will call it Patched-AP.
5: Open Patched-AP with 7-Zip. You should see files in it. (There should be a recovery.img in it) Now drag & drop twrp-recovery to 7-Zip window open Patched-AP. Wait for process, as it will replace stock recovery with twrp recovery. We now have an AP file with magisk & TWRP pre-patched.
Now we will use this updated Patched-AP
6: Download Latest Multi-disable from here
7: Download your desired GSI. Havoc GSI, CrDroid GSI, Descendants,Others
(Download ARM64-AB or ARM64-bVN) If you want Google apps it is better to download GSI with built-in GAPSS.
Steps to Follow:
(Enable USB Debugging on your phone, Turn on OEM Unlock option in developers option)
1: First Unlock Bootloader of your device (Boot to download mode-- Power off, Volume up + volume down and connect to pc)
2: Follow on-screen instructions to unlock bootloader (While in download mode -- long press volume up for unlock area, volume up to unlock)
Info: Now phone will do wipe and you should be back into system. Now due to some Samsung restriction, you must enable USB debugging again & see OEM unlock check if greyed out (untouchable). (You must do it as system gives download mode a signal to prevent issue with custom files flashing)
3: Boot to download mode, Press volume up. Connect to PC.
4: Run Odin, Select files, AP as Patched-UP we created, CSC as Home-CSC, CP and bootloader that your extracted.
(Uncheck auto-reboot in odin)
5: Start Flashing, wait for it to pass. Now we will boot to recovery from here
6: To boot into recovery, first we should exit download mode then boot to recovery during that process.
First Hold volume down + Power --> wait for screen to go black--> as soon as screen goes black--> leave all buttons --> now press Volume UP + Power --> Keep pressing until you boot into TWRP recovery.
7: Now Swipe to allow modifications --> Wipe --> Format Data --> type "yes" --> swipe. Wait for Wipe.
8: Now Click reboot --> Reboot to Recovery. Wait for Phone to boot back into TWRP recovery.
9: Again Swipe to allow modification. Connect to PC & Copy the Multi-Disable to phone.
10: Install Multi-Disabler --> Install --> Select Multi-Disable --> Swipe to flash. Wait for it. Reboot again to recovery.
11: Copy your downloaded GSI img to Phone. Select Wipe and do a factory reset.
12: Install GSI --> Install --> Select IMG --> Click on GSI image --> Select System partition to flash. It takes few seconds.
13: Now Reboot to System.
Phone Should be booted into new GSI installed
