Hello, everyone. I was using Lineage OS 14.1 with Nougat 7.1.2 on my Redmi Note 3. My fingerprint was not working for some time, so today I decided to return to MIUI. I downloaded the last dev version and installed it via TWRP (now I know it was a mistake). My phone is dead. It's not turning on, it just keeps in the "Mi" boot logo. It's not even entering in Recovery mode neither Fastboot mode. When I try to enter Recovery mode, the Mi logo appears for just a second and then dissapears. When I try to enter Fastboot mode and when I connect it to the charger, the red LED starts to blink, and it's not EDL because my PC doesn't recognize it. I have a backup that I made before flashing MIUI, but I can't enter recovery mode. Please help me. Thanks.
You can flash MIUI on ZCX Twrp but on standard Twrp you must also flash Lazy flasher zip file along with ROM zip but above solutions are only if you have unlocked bootloader officially .
Hold Vol+ Pwr key for sometime first MI logo appears keep holding the keys don't release second time device will vibrate and again show MI logo now release keys & report what happens so I can guide you from there

It does nothing. I managed to release keys just after the logo appears and it keeps stuck at the logo.
I have my bootloader officially unlocked, though. What can I do?

How can I go to edl mode?
try to connect to pc by holding volume down you should be in fastboot mode
See for post in the guides section"INSTALL ZCX TWRP AND UNLOCK BOOTLAODER WITHOUT DATA LOSS KENZO"
this method will help you as I have also faced issue like you and recovered easily by this method in few minutes.
I had the same issue when I upgraded from CM13 to LOS14.1 a week ago. Did you unlock bootloader officially? If you did, just unlock bootloader oficially again and your phone should be working

Hello. I have the bootloader oficially unlocked. I managed to put the phone into fastboot mode, but my pc does not recognize. I think the charging port is damaged. I ordered it via Aliexpress. I will try this when it arrives.

Hey guys, I need some help urgently.I updated to the newest version of MIUI just now, and now my phone is stuck at boot. It just shows the MI logo and never goes past that.I can, however, access fastboot mode, but cannot power down the device. Can someone please tell me whether or not the phone is bricked, and how to recover from this situation?
Fastboot, reboot EDL and Mi FLash.

your phone is soft bricked, You need patched fastboot to reboot in EDL, a Fastboot ROM, and Mi Flash Tool. Goodluck.

Miui or rom from miui.eu ?
Last miui.eu rom let me with an empty /system the first time i flashed it, the second try work so i don't know why.
Try to see if you still have recovery access power + volume up
Unlocked or Locked bootloader?
locked bootloader.
It tells me Not enough space is available to process this command
No, I don't have access to the recovery.
I just switched to a newer version of MIflash.
Seems like it's working.
Guys it worked!!! Thank you, all of you for offering this newbie your help.
Hello,
I got a Redmi 3S, and I've checked if bootloader was locked or not with: fastboot oem device-info. I got a locked bootloader.
Then I tried: fastboot oem unlock-go and it worked. I got the status saying that was unlocked.
I flashed twrp recovery but it didn't worked out. It said that it was flashed, but can't access via Power + volume up. When I do that, I get a xiaomi menu with options like "Download", "recovery" and so on. if I choose "Recovery", I get a blackscreen. And I just power the phone, it's asking for a security password.. I don't have it. Is there any way to reflash miui recovery and try to install a miui rom?
Regards
Just flash factory firmware (developer maybe) with MiFlash. Everything should be fine. For your info, Redmi 3 doesn't have factory recovery.
To flash with MiFlash enter download mode. If you really have unlocked bootloader than you can use fastboot also

Thanks. Btw, it's cm13 stable and everything works? When I flashed recovery(twrp), after I shutdown and power on with volume up, didn't went to the twrp. Went to the xiaomi recovery menu. Is that normal? I have a Redmi Note 3 Pro, and after I flash the twrp, when I press power + volume up, it goes directly to twrp. Maybe I did something wrong.
I replaced the broken screen on my Kenzo and now it's stuck at the Mi logo. Funny thing is the technician said when he disconnects the touch ribbon it boots normally (but obviously with no touch) and locks up with Mi logo when it's connected. I've read that the mtk and sd screens are interchangeable so I don't think that's the issue. I don't have access to another screen so I have to make do with this one anyway.
I bought the phone from Gearbest two years ago and it came with the vendor rom which I never changed. I'm suspecting the vendor rom has something to do with it and now is the perfect time to flash a new rom before I sell it. Only problem is I have no clue how to flash a rom. I can get it to the fastboot screen but that's it.
Could someone please help me but in plain laymans English? Flashing for Dummies kind of thing. I've been a member here a while but haven't grasped the lingo or their meanings yet.
Thanks in advance.

Google miflash
And download it.
Also download the latest miui developer rom
http://bigota.d.miui.com/8.1.25/miui_HMNote3ProGlobal_8.1.25_16348801ef_6.0.zip
Search for EDL.zip from xda itself and follow the instructions to get to edl mode from fastboot mode( to see if it's in edl mode check for the red blinking status LED when connected to the pc)
Now open miflash as administrator connect your phone to the PC.
Miflash should see it as something like COM..
Now extract the developer rom and in miflash browse for the extracted direvtory
At the bottom right select clean_all lock.bat and then press flash..
After few minutes the flashing should get completed and then hold the power button on the phone until u see the mi logo.
Wait for the booting to get completed and then setup the phone..
Congratulations you bow have a working phone again.

Thanks for the help. Well I got it all the way to flash in edl and around 9% it gave an error message "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" or something similar. So it basically failed. What can I do? I'm almost there

Google some fastboot commands to erase partitions...
It should be something like this
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase cache
> fastboot erase recovery
> fastboot erase system
> fastboot erase userdata
First go to fastboot mode by holding vol down and power together .
Then connect to PC and then install minimal adb and fastboot kit. Then open the shortcut in desktop and then type fastboot devices and check if u device is there or not. If yes then copy and paste the commands above and then repeat the EDL flash procedure.

This is depressing. I followed your instructions and used the command "fastboot format partition" as that's the only one that would work and was suggested in options. The result was "failed device locked". :crying::crying::crying:
Yep. Same result. Does the bootloader have anything to do with all this?
Any ideas why it would boot normally with the touch ribbon disconnected but bootloop when connected? I'm beginning to wonder if flashing will even work.
WELL!! My phone is suddenly working. After trying all sorts of flashing methods I put it on the charger this morning and just took it off and it's working perfectly.
What happened was I read another thread about flashing the Global rom with a locked bootloader. At the very end of the instructions and almost as an after thought, the author mentioned that you must boot the phone into recovery in order to clear the cache etc otherwise the phone will be stuck on the Mi logo. It sounded similar to my problem so I did volume up and power key together and the Mi logo came up. Thinking nothing had changed I did volume down and power and went into fastboot. Again nothing changed. So I switched it off, put it on the charger and left it for about 4 hours. I just took it off the charger 20 minutes ago and it was working perfectly.
Perhaps someone can explain what the heck happened? Meanwhile I'm selling it pronto. Lol

Can you boot into twrp recovery? Turning off phone and doing power + volume up button. If yes you can try doing a factory reset.

Are you bootloader unlocked?
stuck on fastboot screen
Sir to be honest i am not a software person and possibly wont understand what you said, but ill explain in detail what exactly happened.
First I had purchased Mi a3 with android 9 and later i got an update saying android 10 the phone was working absolutely fine.
Today i received another update which mentioned android 10 and as usual i updated it and when i restarted the phone i directly got that fast boot screen.
I went thru so many websites regarding this issue but did not find any solution and almost everywhere it said to flash the phone.
So i tried to flash the phone, I downloaded firmware, miflash tool, abd drivers, after doing all this my phone is not being detected on my pc, i checked device manager and even i got links from XDA as well i followed that as well but still no luck on detection.
Upon finding the query on detection issue i found solutions to debug from my device but my device is not starting up so i even cant do debugging as well.
Please help.

Did you try to reset the phone using the recovery mode?
From switch off, press simultaneously for a few moments the Volume Up and Power Button.
you should enter in recovery mode and apply a factory reset.
this works for me
stuck on fastboot screen
I cannot enter the recovery mode when i press the buttons you said it again comes at fast boot screen and i tried to flash with mi flash tool but that flash process continuesly goes on and no changes in phone.

Hi Guys, so the things I was using the official AOSP extended rom on my Redmi Note 9 Pro after but after ccouple of days changed my mind wanted to revert back to the official MiUi rom. So used the Miflash Tool to flash "joyeuse_global_images_V12.5.4.0.RJZMIXM_20220215.0000.00_11.0_global" after flashing it reported a failed error and the fastboot screen started flashing on and off. After turning off the phone and pressing the power button to turn the phone flashes the redmi logo for less than a second and turns off. Plugging in the charger makes the phone flash Redmi logo and then turn off again repeatedly. I can neither get into fastboot mode nor into recovery. Is there any solution to this problem? Any help will be much appreciated. Below is a short clip of the problem.

Here's the log of the flash.

According to the log, the flash was successful, the error is normal (6:02:45 PM 9f886790]:error:Not catch
checkpoint (\$fastboot -s .* lock),flash is not done) since you did not lock the bootloader (flash_all.bat).
After the flash the phone reboots automatically, did you interrupt it?
First try to see if a button is not defective, a bit of WD40 product for example and operate it several times.
But if it worked well before it would be a strange coincidence but it is possible.
(I had this case on one of my phones by dint of flashing).

It seems like a common issue happens with me when I try to flash stock rom via fastboot, if you ever been able to enter fastboot flash custom recovery (like twrp) and use it to flash the stock rom zip (recovery method), it should work..
