Hello, I have a redmi note 3 SE (Kate) and its stock.
A few days ago the device randomly restarted and its bootlooping, instead of the recovery mode the device its showing me a picture of the phone and a usb cable. I can only access fastboot mode, what (and how) can I do something about it?
Thank you in advance

If u cant boot into miui. Then u need to factory reset in recovery.
Hold power + vol up
and release as soon when mi logo vibrates.u will be in recovery mode.
Choose wipe data and cache. Reboot.

If u cant boot into miui then download mi pc suite on computer and install.
Connnect phone to pc in same recovery mode shown by your picture.
And connect internet and download rom and flash. If there is option to factory reset then u use it.
Or
Download fastboot tgz rom .
Put ur device in edl mode.
And flash using miflash tool
Select clean flash all option during flash
Thanks
On windows 10
I downloaded the PC suite and installed the redmi note 3 windows drivers, the computer detect it correctly as "Redmi note 3" and the phone display the USB cable as conneted but the MI pc suite doesn't detect the device :crying:

Remove other drivers and check.

Ur device is locked. Now put device from fastboot mode to Edl mode. And flash fastboot rom using mi flash. Select " clean all" option.

Hello and thank you for your help.
I actually installed the drivers AFTER MI PC suite failed to detect my device, at that time windows displayed it as just "android device".
Fastboot CMD show me this, it's correctly working?
I don't have time to try the EDL method today, I'll give it a try tomorrow. Will it work on a unlocked(I meant Locked) device?

Did u unlocked officially using miunlock tool?
Check ur bootloader status. Using below.command
fastboot oem device-info
If unlocked = true .Then u dont need edl mode..u can flash it in normal fastboot mode.
Just download fastboot rom. I gave link.
Extract it to folder
Put phone in fastboot mode and connect.
Run mi flash tool
Browse and select extracted tgz main folder
Select "clean all" option
And flash.

U dont need to download again.
Ur rom zip comes with file name.
Romszip Filename Starts with
kate ....global... ens with something

The last number here...b29xxxxxcf is md5sum.
To calculate if u have downloaded file properly .
Just Check md5sum of rom zip using md5 checker.
Install any md5hash checker app from playstore on smarphone.
..Download rom zip on smartphone and check md5sum of downloaded file using the app.
Go through those comments. The link i gave u..
Google search redmi note 3 with those errors. U will find solution somewhere. U dont make use of google thats why u cry.

I actually always check google, only problem its that everyone says tons of different things :silly:
So, I started over, redownloaded the ROM (checksum perfect), downloaded the last portable version of MIflash, reinstalled the drivers, rebooted both laptop and phone, started MIflash as administrator...
AND FINALLY!
The device was succesfully unbricked! Many thanks!:good::fingers-crossed:
So, now I have android 6 and MIUI 10 (previously I had MIUI 8), should I upgrade to a better ROM?

Can you tell me a way to unlock the boot loader through fastboot...
Press down + power to go to fast boot, insert usb cable phone to pc, open miflash app (download it here http://en.miui.com/thread-272376-1-1.html), select any fastboot rom version (Here is an example, http://en.miui.com/thread-543021-1-1.html , download fastboot rom for redmi note 3 pro, after downloading unzip the file if you see weird extension file just replace it to .zip and extract to see the files). After selecting the fastboot rom directory on miflash, make sure that your phone is detected as a fastboot device (if you can't see anything on the list on the app, recheck the connection), then select save user data on the bottom, then flash if there is an error, select clean all on the bottom then flash. Wait for the flashing to finished.

This guide above is to return back your phone to a working MIUI.
If you just need to unlock bootloader to flash twrp/custom recovery, then Unlock it via official method
http://en.miui.com/unlock/
- Download mi unlocker
- Open it, then login with your Mi account (Prefer to use your phone number in username)
- Reboot to fastboot mode (vol down + power), connect usb phone to pc
-The app will detect your phone once connected, then proceed on unlocking by clicking the button.
-Wait for it to finished
BTW, the guide above is specifically for redmi note 3 quallcomm/sd/pro, if you have different device, please look for your right fastboot rom in the list in the given thread. Good luck!

what file did you pasted inside the rom folder? something like a unlock file for bootloader?
Maybe that's the thing why it didn't worked. The steps always work for me whenever I got into something.
Also, are you sure that you've downloaded the right fastboot rom for your device? Are you on redmi note 3 pro too?

Hy everyone, I am in this situation since last Friday. Read and tried many guides and tutorials without luck. Here is my situation:
- I have the MEG7 version, I'm in south america. I don't know which version of MIUI I had before the brick (maybe a global fake one?), the phone was working excellent. Friday appears an OTA update of 225 mb, download and executed. After that the phone stucks in a bootloop, just the MI logo, powered by android appears a second and restart.
- Read guides and forums, then I did the test point according to knowhows.net/fix-xiaomi-redmi-5-plus-fake-rom-boot-loop on a 64 bit win10 laptop. The pc recognized the COM qualcomm port, I used the latest miflash 7.4.25.
flashed success stable cn rom but accidentally chose the "flash all and lock" option -> bootloop remains
flashed success dev cn rom -> bootloop remains
flashed success stable global rom -> bootloop remains
flashed success dev global rom -> bootloop remains :crying:
Tried other tools I read in miui forums, like XiaoMiTool, downloaded both china roms (global were not available, maybe due the mi site update?), the bootloop remains.
Keep reading, tried with the beta version of miflash, the proccess was endless, not luck.
Tried with and old miflash version 2016.08.30, the proccess end successfully but bootloop remains.
At this point didn't know what to do, tried to flash with miflash but with the device in fastboot mode, a "flash modem error" appears just 3 second after the start. Perhaps this error can give some clues of the real problem? :crying:
Now I'm starting to get frustrated. Could be the pc? I just have my laptop. If nothing works will borrow a win 7 32 bit pc. I used two usb cables to try luck, no luck. But, which is the correct rom to flash? the global or the china stable? I read can't flash dev roms with locked bootloader.
I tried almost everything, will preciate your kind help.

I guess that the successive flashings after relock bootloader were not really sucessfull.
When you using method point what you did after that? tried with miflash tool or miphone flash tool? so miflash tool don´t work in edl (download) mode, it is for fastboot mode.
Try enter to recovery with pwr + vol up and when appears logo mibunny release pwr button and do a format data and see what happens
MEG7 with locked bootloader needs global rom, not China one, stable or dev doesn't matter.
unlock your bootloader. altough your phone is bootloped. my situations is 100% same as yours. i spent lot of roms also. untill i try unlock (bootlooped phone) but succes. try it bro i hope succes. after succes you can flash into EDL mode and the phone booting normally.

How I unlock the bootloader can you help me? I tried in a simple naive way with adb command fastboot oem unlock, but some with the token I don't have appears. How did you do? I think all my problems are because the locked bootloader.

Yes. I read one guide about that After to understand it, I flashed two global stable roms
- vince_global_images_V9.5.11.0.NEGMIFA_20180521.0000.00_7.1_global
- vince_global_images_V9.2.6.0.NEGMIEK_20180122.0000.00_7.1_global
I did the proccess succesfully, at least the miflash shows that.
But after the reboot, the device stops in "powered by android" and reboot again

First of all try to unlock bootloader, follow this tutorial and download Xiaomi Unlock tool from here: https://www.xiaomigeek.com/download-mi-flash-unlock-tool.html I´m not sure if this works if you didn´t linked before a miaccount onto your device and didn´t enable USB debugging and OEM unlock before.
MiFlash tool from here https://www.xiaomigeek.com/download-xiaomi-mi-flash-tool.html works in fastboot mode.
MiPhone flash tool from here http://chinagadgetsreviews.blogspot.com/2015/11/download-miphone-tools-for-flashing.html works in edl/download mode.
If you can´t unlock bootloader then you can try with MiPhone flash tool, to get in edl mode you have to first of all download and install the drivers for this method from here https://www.androidgyd.com/qualcomm-hs-usb-qdloader-9008-driver.html and open device manager from pc so your device has to be detected like qualcomm HS-USB qdloader 9008 and there are three methods as far I know to enter in download mode although one or more couldn´t eventually work:
- Pressing the three buttons at same time to connect to pc you have to get a short vibration then release inmediately.
- Second method trying to avoid to open backcover of device, search or made by your own a "cable edl" it´s not so difficult to do it (just youtube)
- Test point method is the last resort.
MiPhone flash tool works both unlocked or locked devices.

MiPhone flash tool from here http://chinagadgetsreviews.blogspot.com/2015/11/download-miphone-tools-for-flashing.html works in edl/download mode.
If you can´t unlock bootloader then you can try with MiPhone flash tool, to get in edl mode you have to first of all download and install the drivers for this method from here https://www.androidgyd.com/qualcomm-hs-usb-qdloader-9008-driver.html and open device manager from pc so your device has to be detected like qualcomm HS-USB qdloader 9008 and there are three methods as far I know to enter in download mode although one or more couldn´t eventually work:
- Pressing the three buttons at same time to connect to pc you have to get a short vibration then release inmediately.
- Second method trying to avoid to open backcover of device, search or made by your own a "cable edl" it´s not so difficult to do it (just youtube)
- Test point method is the last resort.
MiPhone flash tool works both unlocked or locked devices.

Wow, you gave me new ideas to try, really really thanks. Didn't know about miphone flash tool. I'll use tonight.
- When I did the test point the pc recognized the device in the COM ports, as a qualcomm hs-usb 9008, as I know, when this happens the phone is in EDL mode right?
- I have tried to unlock BL with the official tool too, but couldn't because of the device was not binded to my account. Anyway I have found this thread http://en.miui.com/thread-246705-1-1.html with some info I didn't know, about kedacom driver and disconecting internet, don't know if will work but I will give a try.
If I have luck I will let you know

After a few hours I tried the suggestions.
1.- Downloaded the MIFLASH UNLOCK tool from the mi web, tried to unlocl the BL, not success "account is not bound to device"
2.- Downloaded MIPHONE TOOL, I saw is similar to Miflash, but the last Miphone of the link is from 2014, nevertheless I tried with the device in EDL (with test point and the COM port), gave me this error:
"insufficient storage space to process this command :crying:
I observed that MiFlash works in EDL too, I mean, doing the test point recognize the device in the COM port too.
Also, I tried to flash a Global Rom with MiFlash but this time in fastboot, the device is recognized with many numbers. But I get this error:
At this point I really don't know what to do.
I guess I need to find a way to unlock the bootloader without bound account to the device.
Could this be useful? Before the brick, I added my Mi account in the device and I still can see it in Mi Cloud web:
Maybe I can contact xiaomi customer support and ask them to give me the permission to unlock the device.
I won't give up!

Here three things that you should try; other version of MiPhone tool, flash directly twrp, begin and wait the unlock process......
1- As far I know MiFlash tool doesn´t work in edl mode, just recognices device. Here you have a version from 2016 of MiPhone tool https://xiaomiflashtool.com/download/xiaomi-flash-tool-20160401 you have to set the path to your firmware folder next to "browser" box upper left there is an option to configure the files (prog_emmc_firehose_8953_ddr.mbn, patch0.xml, rawprogram0.xml) that are needed to flash the rom.
2 - Also, you can move all the rest of files and put only recovery (custom twrp) and after flash some custom rom from twrp, there are some threads explaining this process.
3 - To unlock bootloader you have to begin a process, put your sim onto other device and request to Xiaomi with this number and you should have to wait for the process, read carefully the thread specially the first steps https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5/how-to/how-to-how-to-unlock-redmi-5-plus-t3750250

Yes, the dev rom receive weekly updates.
Time of flashing
Does anyone know how much is the average time to flash with miflash or miphone? In my notebook, win10 64 bit, dual core takes 700 - 900 seconds. I see in other images that finishes in 100 - 200 sec.
I have same problem like you in my MEG7
:crying:
My phone is completely messed up right now. All I did was flash spark os (A12) over PPUI (A11) and then my phone didn't boot. I flashed that ROM via fastboot flash tool. I think it was the tool which caused this problem. After so many tries, my phone booted but wifi, sound and many other functions aren't working. Then I tried flashing some other ROM but TWRP/Ofox kept giving some "error 7". Then I tried flashing fastboot ROM with 3 versions of Mi flashtool but it keeps giving some kind of CRC flash error. Please help me I'm too much worried right now.
if you flash through fastboot tool do you see any error (if yes then tell us more about the error )if not and rom starts with some issues try flashing the latest firmware

I was flashing fastboot ROM using mi flashtool and it gave me error. When I tried to turn on the phone, it didn't turn on. However, when I connect it to PC, the PC makes some sound. What do I do now?
boot your phone into fastboot mode and then connect it to pc and install this rom
https://sourceforge.net/projects/xiaomi-eu-multilang-miui-roms/files/xiaomi.eu/MIUI-STABLE-RELEASES/MIUIv12/xiaomi.eu_multi_HMNote10_V12.0.5.0.RKGMIXM_v12-11-fastboot.zip/download
extract the zip file and you will see a file (install for first time) open it and if all goes well it will flash the rom

I can't even boot into fastboot mode. Screen stays black no matter what key combo I try
The following steps should put your phone into fastboot.
1) Phone off
2) Connect the USB cable to the computer (not the phone for now)
3) Hold the volume down button only
4) Still hold and connect the USB cable to the phone
Now the telefo should start fastboot mode.

Didn't work. I guess EDL mode is my last hope now.
Starting EDL mode can be a problem. At present, perhaps EDL cables no longer work and if the phone does not allow you to enter the EDL by key combinations, the only test points left are on the phone's motherboard. With test points, the question is whether the correct points have already been found. The manufacturer does not inform about them.
What driver is loaded in Windows when the phone is connected?
So the test points are already known:
It works by disconnecting the battery to completely shut down the hardware. Conductively connect the test points (tweezers, scissors) and with the points connected, connect the USB cable plugged into the PC. This activates the EDL mode (sometimes only very briefly). You need to have MiFlash running beforehand and use "refresh" and "Flash" right away. If nothing happens, probably the EDL mode has already been switched off again.
For flash in EDL mode you can normally use MiFlash with ROM for fastboot.
If the Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 Windows driver is loaded, this is the EDL mode.

I wonder how did my phone boot into edl mode although I never opened its back cover.
And right now the problem is that Mi Flashtool is showing some edl authentication error. How do I resolve that?
First, it is very important to call things by their correct name, otherwise misunderstandings and mistakes in procedure can arise. What do you mean "Mi Flahtool"?
You should have used this:
https://www.xiaomiflash.com/downloads/MiFlash20181115.zip
I think the flashtool version of 2017 works without any problem, coz, recently I unbricked my Poco x2 with this version of flashtool. The latest versions of flashtools are getting errors. And move the flash files to C: partition mandatory

No matter which version I try, it always gives this error and asks for id and password. And when I enter that, nothing happens.
Bro, connect to a VPN , change the language of auth window and bind your mi account details there. And give it a try on tool version 2017.4.25... If nothing works go for edl.

Bro, use the same version of flash tool that I mentioned above.. 2017.4.25 with flash all command.
THIS GUIDE DOES NOT APPLY TO THE HARD BRICK, WHERE FASTBOOT DOES NOT WORK!!!
1) Download MI Flash: https://xiaomiflashtool.com/ (i downloaded mine from here.)
2) Download phone's original firmware. https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/ (search the phone and select rom depending on your country.)
Remember to download the fastboot firmware.
3) Extract firmware to a folder, like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I used 7-zip.
4) Open MI Flash and let it install all the drivers needed.
5) Reboot your phone into fastboot mode (hold power key + vol down key) and plug it into your computer.
6) In MI Flash select the folder when you extracted the firmware.
7) Click refresh and make sure the program detects your phone.
8) Down the window, select clean all (otherwise it will lock the bootloader)
9) Click Flash.
Done.
NOTE: if the program displays an error "error: no command fastboot lock /s" don't worry about it. The system will work anyways.
NOTE: recovery gets replaced by the stock one
NOTE: you can just use the flash_all.bat file to flash it, but i recomend using the program. The .bat file also did not work for me.

NOSS8 said:

No. the Boot Loader is Locked.
There's no explanation about that in the 1st Post nor in other previous posts (that if the Boot Loader is locked then anybody doing this guide as it is being told, will surely find those error like me (Critical partition flashing not allowed),
so no wonder I get that error.
But then,... (before I tried this guide), it was because, after I did Factory Reset and Wipe Data) my phone was stucked on "MiUI 11 Logo' (on white background -where I can change Language and font size, but no further from that), (that's why then I tried this guide),,.. so (my point is) there's no way I can Unlock the Boot Loader first.
So, then, I try a step I watched on YouTube.
I put off the phone's back case, disconnected the battery, and so on and so on just like the video told, (EDL Flashing).
Success. (at least that was what the MiFlash Tools app told me on my PC screen)...
Put on everything back, try to turn on my phone.. but now it is doing boot loop... (and worse,.. now the boot loop is on MiUI logo with black background, even before where it was at the 1st time)
Can somebody help me?
If you can enter fastboot mode, use fastboot oem device-info to check the status.

*I cannot enter Fastboot now, because it seems there's other problem, that is, I ruin the plastic power & volumes buttons (maybe when I took off the back case) somehow, they don't work now.
*I didn't and haven't try that Xiaomi Official UnlockTool, because like I said in my previous post, I didn't know that to do the guide in the 1st post in this thread, my phone has to be in UBL condition first. And I was in condition where I couldn't enter my phone (to login to Xiaomi ID on my phone, for example).

Actually I'm in series of bad luck,.. I lost my previous phones, (a redmi Note 10),, so I have to re-use this my old Redmi 5a blue phone, just after my other, the silver (redmi 5a too) was its screen suddenly cannot be touch when I used it as my first emergency replacement.
Explaining how it happened ; I tried to unlock the bootloader of my redmi note 11s 5g using another cellphone, I thought it wouldnt be such a bad idea, but my phone at the boot started to have the following error; dm verity corruption. I did not use my pc because at the time it was being fixed. I tried to use xiaomi unlock tool to unlock the bootloader to flash another rom to unbrick my device, but I was having a lot of errors with my mi account; it had to be connected at my device, but how tf I connect a mi account to a device with no system? My phone is mediatek, and I tried to unlock using mtkclient, but did not work, I can send to you guys logs with all the process I tried.

I tried to use xiaomi unlock tool to unlock the bootloader to flash another rom to unbrick my device, but I was having a lot of errors with my mi account; it had to be connected at my device, but how tf I connect a mi account to a device with no system? My phone is mediatek, and I tried to unlock using mtkclient, but did not work, I can send to you guys logs with all the process I tried.
