There were a series of events and mistakes that I made and now I have a PocoBrick:
I was going to move from the unofficial LOS to the official version that just rolled out. So I downloaded Lineage file, backed up my phone like a goodie two shoes, wiped and attempted to install.
Then the TWRP gave me an "error7".
Ok, I thought, lets go back and see what went wrong. I attempted a reboot but the phone goes straight to FASTBOOT, still goes to TWRP when pressing Volume up+pwr.
Did a restore and still - straight to FASTBOOT.
I messed with it for a while and then made a grave mistake.. I found a website claiming to teach how to install the official TWRP on pocof1 and I downloaded the Img file and attempted to flash it through TWRP - and now the phone goes right into FASTBOOT without being able to go to TWRP by pressing the Vol. and pwr.
Only Then I noticed that the name of the linked file was "twrp-3.2.3.0.-dipper.img".
Now the phone is in FASTBOOT, I adb doesn't work, when I try to "fastboot flash" I get an "unknown partition" response.
fml.
use MiTool to flash full factory firmware
Did you manage to bring your phone back to life with MiFlash?
mi flash and select clean all
If MiFlash Does not work to you
try search about Pocophone EDL & Testpoint
It works! It works! It works!
Thank you!

Every claim I've seen of this ends up being fake.
Can you please give a source to an actual WORKING solution to bypass EDL authentication?

Can you please be specific about what you did to make it work so that others in your position may also benefit?
I'll add, even if you have already solved your problem, that there are fastboot roms here on XDA (official ROM, with Rom, firmware, and recovery) from which you can then start over.
You can install those as you would TWRP, directly from Fastboot mode via a computer (or other phone, there's a Magisk module that enables adb & fastboot - from phone to phone. Amazing)

First of all, Thank you for read this post.
Second, Please watch my video on the link below:
To be honest, I have change a few handset before but never seen problem like this before.
So, I'm actually have difficulty to boot into recovery again everytime I like to reboot recovery from TWRP itself.
Not just reboot recovery, but also bootloader. So, the one that normal only reboot system option. Even when I try to clicked the reboot recovery or bootloader, it straight goes to system when it start to booting.
I also already try to install the default recovery (the one that only show phone and USB cable) from my phone in order to erase the previous recovery.img, and after that reinstall the TWRP recovery mode. But the problem is never dismiss. Its back, I still cannot access the recovery mode from the TWRP itself.
So, what should I do if I want my TWRP normal again? The only installation method that I still haven't to try yet is fastboot method from PC because I'm using macintosh and didn't have windows PC at my home.
So, if there anyone here know what should I do to fix it, please let me know. If u can't download the video, please also have a look to this picture...maybe it will help you to understand what I mean

Of course I can enter to TWRP by pressing the hard key. That's never be a problem for me.
My problem is, when I'm in TWRP, i never can booting into recovery again. Instead of go to recovery. It always booting to the system. Is that a common?
Before no but after 7.3.9 ROM and until now for me yes.

Thanks i tried deep flash cable method but it didnt worked nd tried test point method Finally it worked
Also Fixed,but FW Flash is a problem
HI,
I just wanted to comment on this, in the hope that some more experienced member, or even TheStrix would see it.
I've had the exact same problem over the last few days, but have been able to fix it each time by reflashing recovery from miFlash in edl mode;
Flashing the firmware from TheStrix (Latest, kenzo) without fail, bricks the Redmi Note 3, only being able to get to FastBoot. I'm able to switch to EDL on the PC with that batch file that's floating about, and flash recovery through miflash. I've been on LineageOS14 for the past few weeks, but my phones been barely usable with lag. Switched to AOSPX the other day by first flashing the FW;
1. Reboot to recovery
2. Backups
3. Wipe everything except for sd
4. Flash FW
5. Flash AOSPEx
6. Flash Gapps
7. Clear Cache
8. Reboot
That was the first time, and brick... as described above, back to recovery- tried missing out GAPPS- same result..
I went through a few different combinaitons, so have gotten quite used to the EDL mode miFlash...
Back through EDL.. flash recovery.. JUST AOSPEx, booted fine. Setup, etc, back to recovery, GAPPS, reboot, setups, etc.All working good- Except no power button
So I once again went back to recovery and flashed just the FW (Fully expecting it might fail)- Sure enough.. BRICK... So just, I've gone back through the miFlash, installed recovery, but then just decided to try rebooting from recovery into my existing AOSPEx- All works fine- Even the power button now- Was that fixed by the FW? And the bigger thing I'm wondering, since everytime I've flashed the FW it's resulted in a brick-does that mean the FW's not working? When I re flash the recovery, am I back to original FW?
Am I now on the new FW?
Only other thing is I don't have root... I'll see if I can find a supersu to flash, I guess.
So tl;dr- I'm all up and working- but flashing the latest FW form TheStrix appears to brick the Note 3 every time. I can only get a rom to install by NOT first flashing the FW. Flashing the FW after a rom still bricks. And I don't know if it is actually flashed with the new fw after re-installing recovery.

It's because you haven't unlocked officially. TheStrix's firmware contains MM bootloader which relocks your bootloader if you're in LP bootloader(which is your bootloader if you've unlocked unofficially). If you've already unlocked officially then flash the latest MIUI dev ROM(which relocks your bootloader) then unlock again, TheStrix's firmware will now work.
Or you can just unzip the Firmware then remove emmc_appsboot.mbn(MM bootloader) then rezip it again. You'd still get problems flashing the latest LineageOS Roms if you don't update your bootloader though. So my advice is unlock officially.
Try This guide http://en.miui.com/thread-235865-1-1.html and this guide make a deep flash cable and download the latest fastboot rom and follow the first link http://en.miui.com/thread-380827-1-1.html
Updated for more serious reference. Hope this info helps you!
Procedure:
Once you have updated to Nougat, you would have to unlock your bootloader
The APK that unlock the bootloader works (Even though is marked as M version). (Remember that this will wipe your device!) For ULBL -> Version UnlockTool_2017_0803(android M) (FROM ASUS) https://www.asus.com/us/Phone/ZenFone-3-Zoom-ZE553KL/HelpDesk_Download/
Zenfone will reboot and you will able to see a new splash screen that informs you that your device is unlocked giving you boot options Don't press anything. (You will see this everytime you reboot). The next screen will show an erase process. Phone will reboot.
Once booted enable developer options and adb via usb.
You can find TWRP builds right here: https://mega.nz/#F!p90wgAaY!l1JbJilmAUEKTKWu43pT9w (Special thanks to: @shakalaca) Use the latest one.
Go to fastboot mode and install TWRP. (fastboot flash recovery (nameoffile).img)
Let fastboot do it's magic, once you finish press volume buttons till you find reboot recovery press power button to select. It will boot again to the first splash. Do not press anything, let it work. It will boot TWRP in a whistle.
Once in TWRP make a backup. You know it's necessary, and will save your ass in case of a softbrick.
Flash latest magisk (Current Ver: 13.3) Magisk thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
Reboot, check drawer for magisk manager, magisk and root should be enabled.
Voila. Safetynet test passed :good:
what version was twrp are you using and what steps did you take to get magisk to work.
smariob said:
So today finally I got my Asus Zenfone 3 Zoom. I couldn't contain myself to start playing with it.
My very first surprise was that the phone requested for an update. I've done it. I ended with a stock 7.1.1 AZ3Z.
This is my experience:
The APK that let you unlock bootloader works. (Remember that this will wipe your device)
After auto reboot I cheched safetynet. At this point test failed (Little bit obvious)
I was able to go to fastboot mode and install TWRP (The same you can find right here at the forum)
Let fastboot do it's magic, press volume buttons till you find reboot recovery. It will boot TWRP in a whistle.
Once in TWRP I made a backup. You know if necessary.
The next step was a crossfinger procedure. Just flashed latest magisk Beta (13)
Reboted checked for magisk manager on drawer.
It was there and root also. Enabled magiskhide, and voila. Safetynet test passed :good:
Hope this Info help you.

Just a question as I'm having difficulty booting into TWRP.
My device is unlocked and when flashing TWRP using the command "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" and trying to boot into it nothing happens other than my device going into the bootloader. I have tried flashing both the most recent TWRP 3.1.1 and 3.1.0 yet I keep on coming to the same problem. Can anyone provide help? thanks in advance.

Everytime you reboot the pone starts into boot loader. It has a countdown to boot into whatever is commanded.
Once you flashed succesfully the recovery img you just have to select option to boot recovery with vol keys and power.
Phone will reboot into bootloader agin let it boot on contdown (don't press any key)
Then it will boot into twrp.
Hello, on nougat i am trying to install the twrp, I downloaded the official bootloader release program (after installing the message "unlocked device") but trying to install the twrp via fastboot me by an error message. ... but I think the problem is the unlocking of the bootloader (if I turn the ze553kl in fastboot mode I see my device is "locked") ... there is another version of the bootloader release software? The one available on asus site would look for android M ... maybe there is one for Nougat? Thanxs
Wop. I used the M version apk on Nougat. It worked with no issues, the unlock of boot loader is successful when all the content of your smartphone is wiped.
For reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hg77b8o8Jk4 Min 1:29
Thank you! But running the software, does not run any wipe, it only displays an "unlocked" message without having to restart anything else. I also tried to make a "factory reset" and repeat lab process but the result does not change ...

Updated, never had mirror issues but is always better to have latest recovery.
Edit. Jimbo, I got an anwer from the source it notes: "please use 'fastboot flash recovery' instead of 'fastboot boot' to avoid up side down screen"
I've also tried installing from scratch with Asus flash tool, but I still can not unlock bootloader ... Anyone know if there is also an unofficial method for unlocking the bootloader?

The device is a Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 (codename: mido)(4/64 GB variant)
So I had this problem yesterday where I was stuck in a bootloop and was unable to get into recovery, so I asked for help in a few subs and XDA, and some good people suggested various suggestions. What worked for me was going back to stock by flashing a stock fastboot ROM via MiFlash Tool.
After getting back to stock, I tried installing TWRP recovery again and everything went smooth, except the fact that it did not get installed at all and I am still on the default Mi-recovery. I have tried numerous versions of the TWRP image, double checked whether USB debugging is switched on or not, but I still can't seem to install TWRP.
Here's a video of the entire process I followed to install TWRP and the issue I am facing:
Apologies for the long video. It is difficult to hold a film with one hand while trying to do stuff on the PC with the other.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

First, I noticed that your TWRP version is old. You said you have tried different versions, but are you sure you tried the latest one? You can download it from here: Download TWRP for mido
Alternatively, you can try with OrangeFox recovery, which is well-recognized as well and personally I use this one: Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 (mido) build releases | OrangeFox Recovery Downloads
Anyway, after the command...
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
...try this one:
fastboot boot recovery.img
If doesn't work try...
fastboot reboot
..and right after you push Enter button, hold Power and Volume+ buttons.
When you enter the TWRP/OrangeFox finally, you should wipe stock system and format data partition, then flash your custom rom.

Hi everybody
I've got a problem...
Downloaded latest OTA update from "xiaomi.eu", agreed to install, the phone then rebooted in to fastboot mode and does nothing else.
Rebooted the phone with adb command "fastboot continue" and this went well...it rebooted the system.
Now every time i restart the phone it reboots in to fastboot mode and i have to "fastboot continue" again.
I am also not able to enter recovery because the phone always enters fastboot mode.
Reinstalled recovery (Twrp-3.4.2B_toco_by.alex.msk1407.img) via ADB succesfully, but when i "fastboot reboot recovery" it reboots back into fastboot.
I'm also not able to boot into EDL mode.
Any solution?
Thanks
"MI NOTE LITE 8GB/128GB" running "MIUI by xiaomi.eu 12.1.1 | Stable 12.1.1.0(RFNMIXM)
Hi, I 'm in the same case, same model, same version.
I investigated and I can provide more details to help the community to look where to get a match to lightning our lanterns.
I downloaded the last OTA from built-in updater then the device was trapped in fastboot loop.
Unable to reboot/boot with adb/fastboot commands, but able to flash, I tried with différents recoveries,whose the last TWRP (testing version) let us discover the "super partition" (need fastbootd implantation to see it) This is the new OTA update partitioning.
We have to set up the proper flags via adb to perform successfully the update , or cancel the update process to retrieve original partitioning (non-updating state).
The commons way to restore recovery/fastboot might don't work, because system/vendor partitions are hidden inside "super partition" so might result of unknown/doesn't exist partition.
I am still seeking (Android dev super partitioning) and I'll be back when I'll discovered more...
EDIT : Doublon ? Another thread is open

The commons way to restore recovery/fastboot might don't work, because system/vendor partitions are hidden inside "super partition" so might result of unknown/doesn't exist partition.
I am still seeking (Android dev super partitioning) and I'll be back when I'll discovered more...

Alex msk's twrp is not compatible with android 11. Use orangefox or pitchblack recovery.
Btw i would recommend not upgrading to android 11 at the moment. It has a lot of bugs.
