Hello.
I wiped the cust partition using twrp, my device has locked bootloader.
How to flash this? miflash does not flash this partition using EDL mode, and fastboot shows an error related to the locked bootloader.
Thanks.
What does cust contain?

Mine is a kate, i don't know if the process is the same.
Do you need the cust of another person having a kate?
I formatted cust partition with ZXC TWRP and nothing happened, I'm on the last build Cardinal-AOSP's and used Google Maps and Maps Here
Edit: I have also a Kate device with lock bootloader

Yes, but without this partition MIUI stock rom will give you a lot of FCs, it can't find locale related data.
You have to unlock your bootloader

where is the option of wipe cust partition in TWRP?
I used almost 3 versions of TWRP but i couldnt find option of wipe cust partition.
Hello,
I can't unlock OEM via the switch at the developer option. It seems open, but when I open fastboot and write fastboot oem device-info , it seems locked.
It seems like the switch has no effect on locking / unlocking OEM
I can't also unlock the OEM with the fastboot commands at the bootloader : fastboot oem unlock-go / fastboot oem unlock / fastboot flashing unlock - with error "remote : OEM unlock not allowed"
Do you have any other ideas?
Heyyo, hmm super weird! Have you tried updating your EUI ROM in case it has some gremlins in it? I was able to unlock mine via developer options.
If you're unable to upgrade EUI I'd recommend a factory reset and try again since unlocking generally wipes out the data partition.

Yes, super weird indeed. I have done a factory reset several times, but the status doesn't change. Everyone has managed it either via developer options or fastboot command. I wonder if there is another alternative doing this. I believe i cant write on to the recovery partition because of it.

That is true. Bootloader must be unlocked in order to flash to recovery.
Just to be safe please read and follow this guide as it is exactly what I did on my Le Max 2

I accidentally relocked the phone by using the hstool method of flashing a full firmware.
it does relock the phone and required me to unlock it again using the fastboot oem unlock code

That's interesting. So all your data was wiped when you used the hstool?
Someone else said flashing firmware via dload method also relocks the bootloader.
hmm i'm not sure.
I'll explain the whole situation.
I had just unlocked the bootloader and installed magisk.
after installing magisk, I installed a few modules, one of which made my phone bootloop.
I managed to get back into fastboot mode, use hstool to select my firmware (224) along with the patched hisuite from funkyhuawei.
after my phone recovered, it seems to have been completely reset and locked.
*edit*
I guess I should also add, I've never installed TWRP on this phone, only patched the recovery_ramdis.img for Magisk

ok just an update, while mucking around I accidentally softbricked my phone.
I used the external usb method (where you update using the code *#*#2846579#*#*) and it 100% relock the phone.
*edit*
and yes, the same code works to unlock it again. KEEP THE CODE SAFE!

You need an external usb-c drive with some firmware on it.
I initially used v187 from this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-20-pro/how-to/firmware-update-187-brings-oem-unlock-t3897301
Since then I downloaded a v206 which works over USB but I cannot recall where I got it from.
Note that you will loose all user data since the phone will be fully wiped.
Also this method requires a phone that is working, as in able to boot and access the dialer and menus.
If I find out where I got the v206 I will post it here as well.
I should also add, maybe it might work with a memory card as well... But this method requires an external source for the firmware since it formats the entire phone
@ xeroxide Thx for your help.
I Try this at the weekend.
If you need to relock your bootloader, this is the process:
Using eRecovery, restore your phone to stock
Once done, boot into recovery and RESET your phone (if you dont, it will not allow you to lock the bootloader)
Boot into fastboot mode (Holding Vol-DOWN, plug in usb cable) , and run the command
fastboot oem relock < bootloader unlock code>
the phone should now ask you that it will wipe your device, confirm,
Enjoy locked phone!

Hi, I write again here, sorry. Can anyone help me with the block bootloader procedure? I want to try custom roms and unlock bootloader is simple, but if I want to restore the phone like new, like when you open the box, what do I have to do? Anyone can help me step by step? Thank you so much
I have the bootloader unlocked and Stock rom official, to take advantage of the warranty what is the procedure to relock the bootloader. I read in this thread to fastboot and run: fastboot flash lock
Has no contraindications?
can you also use mi flash tool and flash_all_lock.sh script?
Thanks
Switch to partition A, run flash_all.bat from the latest fastboot rom, start the phone. If it boots correctly, lock the bootloader with fastboot flashing lock command or run flash_all_lock.bat
Thanks.

If you were able to switch partitions, then you did not lock your bootloader.
Reflash full stock Android 10 ROM, it might solve your wifi issues.
Poco f1 no root, locked bootloader, stock phone received the official ota for june 2020 security patch and got stuck on 90.49% of installation for hours.
I then tried to restart my phone and ended up in bootloop.
Fastboot, stock recovery accessible.
Tried draining the battery and then charging it and booting but no luck.
Tried 'fastboot erase cache' from minimal adb but failed.
i DO NOT want to lose my data, Is there a way to get a backup of the internal storage pls help ASAP.
try flashing fastboot rom with miflash and at the bottom there is option SAVE USER DATA,
fastboot rom will be 3 gb to download, extract and then again extract until u see files,
take this folder, put it in C drive and give a smaller name.
now open mi flash, put device is Fastboot mode, and flash it with SAVE USER DATA option / don't LOCK the device (if your boot is unlocked)
remember, i personaly never tested this method, just read over the internet, perhaps you should see youtube videos also on this

Fastboot ROM can't be flashed without unlocking the bootloader. He has locked BL.
OP you can't do anything now sadly. All data will be wiped, and only way to reset phone is factory reset. Approach nearest service centre maybe they can help in some way.
I face same problem with OP. but I have unlocked bootloader. sadly I've doing wipe data from stock recovery but no luck.
not detected by mi pc suite. should I use miflash and download the full rom?

Soft bricked device can be recovered by simply fastboot.
But with locked bootloader, it is hard to recover your device because now it is hard bricked. You can do EDL Flashing but you need authorized mi account and certain tools to do that.
Your last resort for now is to bring your device to a Xiaomi certified service center, they have the right tools for the job.
