Fastboot mode turns off - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers

Hey, I'm trying to install OrangeFox recovery in my Redmi 5 Plus but in the moment I boot up in Fastboot mode it automatically turns off, so it doesn't let me flash recovery because it reboots by itself, what could it be?

after putting the phone into fastboot what you must quickly write the commands and run them otherwise the system will restart. Don't delay in writing the commands in the command prompt. Write them before hand and keep the commands ready

I cant flash the stork rom via RSD Lite

My moto z before using RSD lite flash NPL 25.86-30, then OTA updated to NPL25.86-30.3. It seems that bootloarder is also updated. now I want to re-use RSD lite to flash NPL25.86-30. But RSD has shown an error in flashing GPT.bin, show "FAIL"
Who can help me?:crying:
You can't go back, if the Bootloader got updated.
jump the step of flashing gpt by editing the xml file(delete the line)
Now my device have a very strange question, if I use the battery mod, is unable to shutdown, automatically enter the bootloarder. Do not use the module can shutdown, but the connection charger will automatically enter the bootloarder,can not be charged in the shutdown state.
Sorry,my english is bad.

Fastboot mode disappeared in 10 seconds...How to solve

why is this happening? i just want to unlock my bootloader thats all...
Please help me... thanks in advance....

Your computer is unable to detect the phone in fastboot mode. Uninstall and reinstall the fastboot drivers, the proper ones. If successfully detected it should not be rebooting.

That ten seconds when phone is turned on in fastboot and connected to computer quickly type this command in command prompt without the quotes
" fastboot devices "​If a device with device number shows up fastboot drivers are installed correctly or else if nothing shows up fastboot drivers are not installed properly..so check them.

Im having this issue now on my redmi note 4x.
Do you have a solution? Thanks
Man, you need adb bootloader interface installed properly.
Open device manager, and you'll see something popping out when you connect your device to pc on fastboot mode, there you can see what's wrong. So all you need is update that wrong driver (the one that popped out once you connect your device in fastboot mode) and install redmi note 4x driver, just ignore your disappearing fastboot mode in your device, keep install it. You should have your redmi note 4x driver prepared btw, you can google it.
Good luck!
use USB2 port, do not use USB3

That is because your computer does not make any connection with your phone. Are you sure that you have all drivers installed. You can install fastboot drivers with mi flash tool but before that write this command in an admin cmd - bcdedit /set TESTSIGNING OFF and reboot. Now you can now install the fastboot driver from mi flash tool and try your luck

So drivers are needed for fastboot flashing a xiaomi phone?
Why I didn't need drivers to use fastboot with other phone manufacturers?
In these phones (oppo, op) the phone stays in fastboot mode until you exit or shut it down.
I think xiaomi did a bad move with this.
───────
EDIT: It works in debian without any additional drivers.
Fastboot recognizes the xiaomi phone with "fastboot devices" command.
So it was as you said.

Install twrp recovery problem, no install and boot recovery original

Hello everyone, this is my first post on the forum.
I have a xiaomi redmi note 4 snapdragon with bootloader unlocked and when I try to install TWRP by ADB it installs it, but when I put the command "flashboot boot twrp.img" it stays in the fastboot logo.
Try using power and volume + to enter the recovery, but enter the original recovery
Can anyone help me? Thank you

Could be possible due to old drivers.
Try these platform tools

What process do you follow?
I happened to do it, by copying the recovery file inside the platform tools folder.
Then inside the folder hold shift and right click. It will show an option to open command prompt window or open powershell window here. From there i wrote the commands, fastboot flash recovery recovery.img , and then manually booted to twrp by holding the vol up and power

I followed that process and it did not work, try two different versions of Twrp and it still did not work. I resigne myself, and try to install the RedWolf recovery with the same process, and this time it works! :fingers-crossed: I could finally install another rom. Thanks for the help
Same problem here, really strange. First time I've this kind of problem.
Edit : Ok, problem solved. There is 2 things to do in addition of the main installation process (found here : https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/mido/install#installing-a-custom-recovery-using-fastboot )
Firstly, you have to enable OEM Unlocking in Developer option menu. And not only enable USB Debugging. To enable it, click twice on the button "OEM Unlock" (if you click once, it will disable automatically when exiting Dev' menu).
Secondly, once you ran
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-x.x.x-x-mido.img
, you also have to ran
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-x.x.x-x-mido.img
in order to reboot in recovery mode. Otherwise default recovery will automatically erase and replace TWRP.
These 2 steps are quite never documented, but are mandatory for Mido (Redmi Note 4) !!

In my case the problem appeared since repair and replace the screen. The unique twrp I could install from ADB was twrp RedWolf

Why is fastboot rebooting the phone automatically?

I am trying to root my OPPO A72. After successfully configuring the adb and USB Debugging I was trying to fastboot it using 'adb reboot bootloader', because 'adb reboot fastboot' reboots it to recovery, which I do not want. After rebooting the phone using 'adb reboot bootloader' for half a second there is chinese text with the text 'FASTBOOT', then it just reboots the phone into android. The OEM Unlocking option does not help. Any ideas why that is / how to fix?

The A72 cannot be rooted at the moment.
with phone on if you enter adb reboot fastboot , it takes you too a screen similar to the recovery screen but you can access phone by fastboot devices etc ... BUT it's a very limited fastboot and hardly any use at all , and will not allow you to unlock bootloader.

v1.2, but I just managed to get into fastbootd mode. It seems like there are no commands available though, just as you said. Is EDL worth anything? What would be the steps to flashing this phone if there is no support by OPPO?

Question DN2103_11_A.14 vbmeta??

HI to all
I got my phone back from service, latest version installed (DN2103_11_A.14 EU).
I will flash TWRP and root, so do I need A.14 vbmeta or can I just use vbmeta from same post I will download TWRP?
If I need A.14 vbmeta, does anyone have it?
Thanks
There is no difference, the same one can be used for all versions.
you can use the vbmeta from TWRP Thread.

How do you enter fastboot mode? There is no option from power button, and when I use adb reboot bootloader, I go to a black screen with font size 1 that says we are in fastboot mode, and this is for developers only, press power up + power to exit.
In recovery there is no "Advanced" option to reboot to fastboot.

That's exactly what fastboot mode is. Your phone is in fastboot mode. Use your poershell terminal on the pc to start sending fastboot commands. Eg "fastboot devices" to test the connection.
If you phone is not responding to fastboot commands, try adding "./" to the start of every fastboot command instead, eg "./fastboot devices"

It's just that it looks nothing like the fastboot mode on my OP2, OPX, OP5T or OP Nord 5G. And it's not recognized by fastboot devices, and does not accept any commands. <waiting for device>

Seems like you just don't have the right drivers installed. Sure it looks different but that doesn't mean it has to work differently.
Windows can get the drivers automatically for you, connect in fastboot mode, then check for updates in windows, then they should either get installed or show up in optional updates as Mediatek ADB something.
