As the title reads, I am stuck in a bootloop I guess coming from uninstalling more system apps than was probably wise.
I tried to flash via Mi Flash but I get a "can't flash a locked phone" error.
I also tried to connect to Mi PC Suite on Fastboot but it doesn't recognize the phone as connected (although the PC itself does and Mi Flash did too).
What options do I have?
Much appreciated,
Ultimatum
SOLUTION:
Download latest Fastboot ROM and decompress
Download and install MiFlash
Open MiFlash
Shut down the phone
Power on with Power + Vol Up.
Download Mode
Connect phone to computer, let it install the drivers if necessary
Refresh MiFlash, phone should show up (for me, Device showed as COM 10)
Browse the ROM
Tick Flash all except data and storage
Advanced > clear nvflash_all.bat
Flash
Enjoy!

have you tried to re-install the Driver? make sure that you only use win 64 bit for flashing, many issues occurred when you try to flash using win 32 bit
I am using Windows 10 64 bit. Moreover, I have installed ADB drivers separately (although these seem to come with the Mi Flash utility too).
I think it's intended behavior not to be able to flash via Fastboot with the bootloader locked? I was hoping to be able to restore via Mi PC Suite but it can't seem to see the phone, although the computer does and Mi Flash does too.
try using Mi PC Suite, http://en.miui.com/thread-92720-1-1.html, After Mi PC Suite is installed, make sure that your phone is in fastboot mode, connect your phone to a computer, and select the correct ROM file to flash
"I also tried to connect to Mi PC Suite on Fastboot but it doesn't recognize the phone as connected (although the PC itself does and Mi Flash did too)."
For some reason, Mi PC Suite is not detecting the phone.

Hello there,
I faced the same situation, but unfortunately in download mode, the phone is not detected in MiFlash, it detected as QHSUSB_BULK in Windows. Phone is detected while in fastboot and normal mode, but not in download mode. Do you have any idea what to do?
I expect this is a driver issue, but I can't figure out what.. I'm using Windows 64 bit, disabled driver signature enforcement, and installed all driver from MiFlash installation (there were 3 of driver notification prompt).

You need to update QHSUSB_BULK to the Qualcomm driver.
Device Manager > Select QHSUSB_BULK > Update Driver Software > Find manually the location of the driver, most likely: C:\Program Files (x86)\Xiaomi\MiPhone\Qualcomm\Driver
The driver should now appear as Qualcomm something, and Mi Flash should be able to see the phone.
Does this work?

Hi,
Thank you for the help. Unfortunately it doesn't work straight away, fortunately this leads me to the right direction, after I tried to point the driver to Xiaomi directory, a window dialog says the driver is 32 bit thus noninstallable for my PC, then I looked around for 64 bit driver for Qualcomm, installed it. I can finally install the driver but the phone is detected as unknown USB device, after removing it from Device Manager, restarted my PC, and tried again, it's still the same, on the third try it finally detected properly. It's working now, thank you very much.
Really weird why did MiFlash comes with noninstallable driver.

you have to flash in edl mode not fastboot so google on how to take redmi 3s into edl mode then you can flash the rom in locked bootloader.in redmi 3 we use volume up and volume down and power button.press all three at the same time and it will take u to edl mode.screen becomes all black but if you plug it to ur computer and press refresh in miflash then it will show as com 10 or 20.thats for redmi 3.maybe redmi 3s has the same steps

I have already tried to switch to edl mode using cmd with "fastboot oem edl" command but it enter bootloop. It happen because oem is locked alongwith usb debugging as I didn't unlock developer option.

I believe you are talking about dfc a.k.a deep flash cable. I have searched alot I couldn't find it on any e-commerce site except alibaba which doesn't ship at my place. Can yousuggest any seller or website if you ever came across selling dfc cable? Deep flash method is the only last resort for my problem other than sending phone to service centre. Could you suggest any website to make dfc cable manually?;as I have searched youtube but non of the method mentioned in it seemed liable to me.

You don't need deep flash cable use button combo to put in edl mode. From device manager update driver for QHSUSB_BULK. \After that reboot pc with driver signature disabled, then open mi flash and phone should be recognised. Just found the thread I used to remove vendor rom.
http://en.miui.com/thread-254606-1-1.html
JUST MAKE SURE YOU DOWNLOAD THE ROM FOR YOUR DEVICE!:crying:

As I have already said edl mode won't work since developers option was not activated as edl requires oem activated. I had already tried all the methods.
By the way thanks to u all at xda as I have successfully flashed new rom using deep flash cable method...
Nexus 10 rooted in a bootloop
Hi folks! I'm a newbie with this stuffs so I'll do my best to explain the issue. I've recently rooted my Nexus 10 with Nexus root toolkit 2.1.9( I believe). All was fine until I turn it off and back on. Now I'm in a bootloop. I could use the Unroot+flash command but my windows 7 won't detect the device. It only detect it when my tablet is connected and turn off. In that case shows as MTP. Can anyone help me reinstalling the driver or else? Thank you

Unbrick Xiaomi Redmi 3s prime with unlocked boot loader
Hi all,
I've a Xiaomi redmi 3s prime with rooted and unlocked bootloader. I tried unrooting from SuperSu and the phone is in bootloop now. I had TWRP recovery mod installed and a nandroid back up in my phone. But, I can't even enter the recovery mode now. Fast boot is working. Please help me to unbrick it without losing the data or recover the nandroid back up at least.
Thanks!!

Hi,
I have a new Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X. When i bought it a week ago, i was able to connect it to my MacBook Pro and also was able to install one of my apps using Android Studio.
After requesting unlock code and waiting 72 hours, I have been able to unlock de bootloader with the Xiaomi utility on a Windows 7 computer, flash TWRP (twrp-3.1.1-0-santoni.img from twrp.me) using fastboot from my Mac OSX and install SuperSU 2.82 via TWRP.
The problem is that after rebooting the phone, it is impossible to connect to it via adb. It never appears in adb devices list. Things that i have tried:
Add to adb_usb.ini with these vendor Ids (0x8087,0x2080,0x2717)
Enable / disable developer options
Enable / disable USB debugging
Clear list of USB debug authorizations
Try to modify USB settings to MTP/PTP mode (it always connect as "charge only" mode, if i try to switch it it doesn't change).
Update platform tools to version 0.26 via Android Studio
Connect it to different USB ports
When i connect it to my USB, the phone didn't asks me permissions to allow USB debugging for the RSA key of the computer. It just shows the message about USB charging only mode. If I connect one of my other two phones (Huawei P8 Lite 2017 and Vernee Apollo Lite) they appear without problems on the adb devices list.
Do you have any ideas of what can be the problem? Thanks in advance for your help!
Hi,
I have a Redmi note 5, just 5 months old. Recently it fell down and the screen is completely broken. Unable to see the screen and touch is not working. I want to recover data from the phone. I was trying without any luck for past couple of days. Tried following things and none helped.
1. Connected phone to PC via USB cable, but since by default MTP is not enabled internal storage is not displayed.
2. Tried to use MI PC suit but seems like it's not supporting the Android version or MiUi version. I have Android N and MiUi 10. Tried with multiple versions of PC suit and no luck.
3. Reboot to fastboot mode : I don't have debugger option enabled, so only fastboot commands work, adb commands not working. Tried to unlock OEM, flash custom recovery etc: and nothing works! (Next time first thing I'll do with a new phone is enabling debug mode!!)
4. Tried to use Mi account to unlock bootloader but since device is not added into my acount, that also not possible.
5. Tried a bunch of softwares to cast screen to pc or control from pc , but nothing works as debugging not enabled.
I need help if anyone having any other ideas.
One way in my mind is to enable usb debugging just by using an otg keyboard. But this requires help from some one really kind.; to upload a video showing how to open settings and enable debugging only using a keyboard connected via OTG cable ( My phone is running on MiUi 10). I know it's too much to ask..but.. still..
Thank You

Try to find a replacement Charging Jack PCB and replace it, if it still doesn't work then there's something else causing problem with your device. Also have you tried a different PC?

Hi,
T95Q TV box keeps rebooting so I am trying to install poison rom to solve this.
The problem is that the usb burning tool v3.1.0 does not detect the box. Since the AV button of the box is broken, I am trying to reboot to recovery mode with Quick Reboot app (I do not know if this is the same with the recovery button).
The procedure I follow is to connect tv box to PC (Windows 10 in test mode) via usb and reboot to recovery mode with Quick Reboot app. TV box is not detected.
Any ideas?

ok so you have a few options, your 1st is to try shorting the contackt where the button was (baisically instead of button you just bridge the gap) ot if you dont have any pads left (maybe broke off with button) then your other option is mask rom mode (by shorting 2 pins usally on your nand/emmc chip while connecting USB)
