Once I got my hands on the F1 i unlocked the bootloader, installed twrp and flashed the latest stable beta. I also rooted with Magisk. So I went on and was really happy BUT now they stoppped with the beta program and crazy as I am wanted to go back to the latest stable which I just flashed via twrp. And thats where the trouble starts. I lost all my data and the phone wants a password which I never used. When entering recovery the 1st screen I get is Mount-decrypt Data. There I should 'enter password'. I don't have one. There are also two options, cancel and change language. If I cancel I come to the usual twrp screen. Whatever I do I can't get anything to work. So I decided to Miflash the latest stable global and make a new start. I starts flashing and after 1 second it's done successful. Of course it's not ok.
May be there's someone who can point me in the right direction?
how i fixed my poco f1 used old laptop with usb 2 . installed flash tool and add drivers and flashed it .make sure download flash rom. bootloader has to be unlocked and its in recovery when flashing.

I managed to get the device working again. I had to format data though. after that I had to manually mount all partitions and enable mtp. Then I was able to put the needed zip on to the phone. I just flashed the official global stable and the device booted as normal.

Hello and first of all thank you for reading. I've a strange problem with my redmi note 3 pro.
i was chatting with it but suddenly it starts to have bootloops (mi logo flashes). I tried to restore it with recovery (it was still not unlocked) but nothing to do. So i flashed rom with the miflash and in edl mode (i tried latest stable, latest developer and first developer fastboot roms) but the bootloop was still here. So i tried to unlock bootloader with unoficial method (official says that my phone is linked to another account, absolutely false but i will come to this point later). Tried to flash zip with TWRP but still bootloops. I was tired and i tried cm13. It worked, phone boots and i was absolutely happy but dialer crashes when i receive calls. So i understand that my phone wants the boot.img of android 6.0 to not go into bootloop. I flashed (via TWRP) latest 6.0 based miui rom and it worked but still with dialer problem. I tried to unlock it but still no go. So i decided to try to sign out of my miaccount (yeah it was still there after flash with miflash in EDL mode, don't know why!) becasue it asked me to enter my password to use the phone when i boot miui 6.0 for the first time.
SO i Have absolutely no idea on what i should do. Phone bootloops when i use a 5.1 based rom, and with 6.0 dialer crashes. That's the strangest thing ever.
I tried many fastboot roms in edl and in fastboot, i tried custom recoveries and stock one, tried to unlock and relock bootloader. I tried basically everything (wipes, system-data-cache-internal) EVERYTHING!
please if you hava any idea i will be glad to try!
I've tried to restore a backup from another RN3P but still bootloop. Maybe is somethig related to the boot.img? changing it makes the phone boot.
Go to a Mi service center. They might be able to help you.
Which gapps you installed after you flashed cm13...
When i used stock package, my dialer was also crashing but when i used micro package, the problem was solved....

I had a similar issue a while ago with a friend's Samsung. The service center people said that it was a RAM issue..
. If you can return the phone to wherever you bought it from, Do it ASAP and get another model...
Otherwise you might have to go to a service center and tell them exactly what you are facing. Before that i must suggest
Try installing a custom Kernel perhaps and see if it still bootloops
For every worst case software/firmware failure, full rom flash would be the one to solve it. Based on your story, it must be the hardware problem. So if possible, bring it to your nearest service center..
i really thank you for the reply but this phone comes from china and i'm in Italy so I have no warranty at all (including the fact i changed the screen) I think i will use it as an ipod. I've posted a log of the kernel bootloop so maybe someone with skills could help me!
that's the log! http://pastebin.com/b3CVcBAT
Hey all!
I just got my Note 3 (Snapdragon/Kenzo) from DX and it came with global US rom. I checked and its bootloader is already unlocked. I want to update to Miui 8 global dev but I'm worried with this unlock, is there a way to know if it was officialy or unnoficialy unlocked? I want to flash the oficial recovery rom but heard that it can brick the phone if it was unnoficialy unlocked.

It came with Miui 7.3 Stable (7.3.2.0.0 LHOCNDD)
Please, help. =)

That is a vendor rom.
More than likely it is unofficially unlocked, because your only allow to unlock 1 device per month for each account.
Since your bootloader is unlocked, flash an official rom (which might lock the bootloader again).
Don't flash the latest 6.0.1 rom yet as you might not be able unlock with that.
Then unlock officially.
Check the reddit xiaomi wiki for guides.
Got it! Thanks, for your answer. I realy dont mind unlocking, I just want a miui 8 dev(it has a built in root, right?). I just was afraid of what method of flashing I should use with this unnoficialy unlocked bootloader. I'm going to search this wiki for it.
And better do a Alka TWRP backup now, before anything! Then, if you get your bootloader locked, you can always restore the backup to your current status - ROM and unlocked bootloader. I have two Kenzos in the same situation, and that's the way I do it.
Nice! Will do. Can't I just use that recovery to install an updated rom? There is an annoying bug on this version, I can't open my contact or dialer app, they close befero they appear on screen, tried erasing data but no help.
Boot from TWRP without installing it, make the backup (all partitions), then make sure you get the backup on your PC. After that you can install TWRP and make whatever you wish.
And don't forget, if you need to restore, do it without restoring the firmware partition, or else you'll get an error.
Thansk! But I think I will stick with the global dev. Can I flash it via Fastboot (MiFlash)? This unnoficial unlock wont cause any trouble, right ?
This is not an unofficial unlock. Is isn't either official
My phones came with some vendor MIUI's - 7.4.9.0(LHOCNDD), respectively 7.4.18.0(LHOMIDD), but I never flashed another MIUI, just custom ROMs. For what I know, if you flash via fastboot it will wipe the entire partition structure, including boot and recovery, and the bootloader will get locked. In that case you can not restore the backup you make now. You'll have to apply for official unlocking, or go unofficial.

that means.. you recieved an unboxed device, may be refurbished, repacked and resealed and sold $25 costlier than the original. :silly:
Not necessarily. I have two, buyed from a local big online store, both came with unlocked bootloader. Both boxes were sealed, with no sign of foreign hands
I have 7.3.2.0.0 LHOCNDD rom and unlocked bootloader. Can I just type on fastboot:
fastboot flash recovery recoveryAlkaUpdate.img
to get twrp(alka)?
Thats work!

I have the same MIUI vendor as you, 7.4.9.0(LHOCNDD), what method did you use to install TWRP? I only want to install AOSP/CM based ROM on this device. I want to flash it ASAP cause this MIUI ROM have a Trojan downloader, which luckily can be disabled.
I used Cofface on first phone, Alka on the second. Before flashing, first boot from TWRP image, make backup of all partitions to the SD card, copy the backup on computer, and only after that flash the TWRP image. After that... flash ROMs

I followed a tutorial that uses ZXC TWRP while on MIUI. Then I flashed ALKA, I'm on Nexus Experience now.
Selling my F1 phone. No matter what I do, on first boot, LineagOS asks for the pattern I used.
Tried wiping everything with TWRP 3.3.0 official. System, data, everything really - installing LOS from SD.
Basically, installing vendor, LOS, gapps - boots fine, then asks for the pattern.
Adding DFE to the flashing sequence didn't do much.
What to do to make the phone "brand new" and forget my pattern?
I also got this.. Im in siberia rom sometimes when i reboot my phone it asks the pattern i used so i just use the pattern lock i put. It then proceeds booting up but i never flashed dfe my twrp is unofficial twrp with decryption support
Yeah, it never bothered, but it might bother the new owner.
It's hard to believe that it's actually impossible to remove. I don't care about wiping clean, just need to make sure there's no lock.
Did you try flashing miui official rom via miflash ? I once done this method on redmi 3 on my friends phone since he got locked out of his phone . he did not remember his xioami id or password but miflash method worked for him

flash it via TWRP
community, i need your help.
today i unlocked bootloader on my pocophone f1.
then i followed instructions for flashing twrp. i flashed latest version of twrp (from twrp official site), then flashed "disable force encryption", clicked "reboot" and the phone just keeps rebooting on opening screen with "pocophone by xiaomi" logo. i went back to twpr, cleared dalvik/cache and did factory reset and result is the same.
before flashing twrp i was on latest global stable miui 11.0.4 (android 10).
what went wrong and how to fix this? thank you in advance!

Im also new to this thing, but i have suggest you to flash to stock first to fix bootloop.
My method is using XiaoMiFlashTool, before that you need to have stock rom to flash and rename it to PIE.
I also put that folder into desktop. ( more detail maybe you could search on youtube i think )
Then, bring your poco to fastboot mode, then open your MiFlashTool click refresh if device doesnt popup. when device is detected you can start flashing, and ur poco should be fixed from bootloop. ( also makesure you checking on left bottom corner before flashing, there is option you could choose. )
Next step just install your TWRP and disable encrption and install magisk afterward.
Iam not really good at explain thing, but i trying :laugh: thats what i do when my poco softbricked. maybe someone could correct me if iam wrong. but this is what iam doing so fat, there's no problem until now :fingers-crossed:
i solved it... it seems twrp installing somehow deleted miui system from my phone. now it's all ok.
thanks anyway.

How did you solve? By reflashing MIUI using MI flash tool? Or by installing custom rom? Were you able to reboot to twrp?
first of all, you must be fully concentrated when installing twrp, because twrp can delete your system, like in my case.
yes, i was able to reboot into twrp always. then i installed xeu rom to check if everything is ok. and it was.
Without data loss, is this method come back to normal as before for poco f1 mobile?

Hey guys i have an issue, i was running Pixel Experience 10 but on MIUI 10, i couldn't update the last one so i thought to get back to stock rom, update to miui 11 and then get back to my Pixel rom. I DID A BIG MISTAKE. I installed the Miui 11 Update through TWRP without restoring the stock miui 10 rom. It worked but i had lost my Pixel rom ( i have a backup), ok then i installed TWRP at the MIUI 11 because recovery mode got me at Xiaomi Recovery for some reason. Inside the TWRP i flashed Disabled forc Encryption, but it didnt flash the Magisk, i reboot to system and after 100 bootloops i tried to go back to recovery mode, it boot at TWRP but since then, the TOUCHSCREEN DOESN'T WORK.. I used xiaomi mi flash tool to return to stock rom, it did, locked the bootloader etc...the touchscreen still doesn't work though... I can connect a mouse with OTG Type-C and i can do anything you tell me in order to fix it.. i have already update to MIUI 11, unlock the bootloader, installed TWRP and have Root. Has anyone any idea or a solution to try? Thanks everyone in advance.
