my xiaomi is totally bricked when flashed TWRP - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I fixed a prior problem with my Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro where there was no recovery and only went to fastboot, Went to into EDL mode and fixed the problem...
I tried to flash TWRP custom on my phone. I had USB debugging on and OEM unlocked. i tried to go around having the bootloader locked and flashed a file specific for going around Xiaomi bootloader locks and having TWRP as the recovery. So i went into EDL again trying to flash TWRP and ended up having EDL on my phone "permanently". I cannot afford a new phone. I REALLY NEED HELP recovering my phone while also having TWRP as the new recovery... :crying:

Can you reboot back into recovery?
Why would you have the bootloader locked? You should unlock the bootloader.

No I can't go into recovery or fastboot. It's stuck in EDL mode...
The bootloader used to be unlocked but it somehow got locked while flashing the stock rom because i was recovering my device from a past brick.
Officially unlocking the bootloader takes too long and is too hard...

is anyone going to help me?
is anybody going to help me? I'll answer any question just please help me:crying:

Locked bootloader - flash fast boot rooted ROM

I'm currently stuck waiting for xiaomi to properly add my device to their unlocking server, hopefully enabling me to unlock my bootloader. (I'm stuck at 50% during the unlock process)
My phone came with the factory installed China ROM. I then installed over this with the Global Stable fastboot ROM via EDL. Would it be possible to pre-root this fastboot image and flash via edl, enabling root with the bootloader still locked?
I am only wanting to root my device once unlocked, so thought this may be possible?
no dm verity in boot img in locked bootloader will refuse to boot your device.simply it will brick your device and end with a heavy paperweight and nothing

Unable to enter Recovery Mode even though officially unlocked

Hi,
I have unlocked my bootloader officially through the unlock tool and wanted to flash a custom recovery and also root my device (Redmi Note 3 - Snapdragon).
I was on Global Dev (6.5.19) before I even started to unlock my bootloader.
After unlock, I was succesffuly able to flash Cofface TWRP recovery through fastboot (well the command prompt didn't throw up any errors and had a success message).
However, when i reboot into recovery (either through button combination or "adb reboot recovery", I just get a screen that shows an image of a phone and USB cable" (similar to the image on the official bootloader unlock tool.
I checked whether the bootloader was unlocked (fastboot oem device-info) and it was indeed unlocked.
I have factory reset and reflashed 6.5.19 (Global dev rom) with MiFlash and this hasn't made any difference.
I also relocked the bootloader with MiFlash Beta and then unlocked successfully with the official unlock tool.
All of these steps still haven't made a difference.
Can someone please advise on the next step to do (as unlocked bootloader is pretty useless if I can't install a custom recovery).
P.S. I also get the same phone and usb cable image when booting into stock recovery
find it weird problem
if you dont,then first just boot the recovery
code:- fastboot boot xxxrecovery.img where xxxrecovery replace your own recovery img name in fastboot folder.
you must success and see twrp recovery
then again transfer img to sdcard and to flash from recovery.
then flash it from recovery and when you reboot ,just swipe to diseable rom to replace it with stock one.
find it really weird ,i did it hundredths of time in my offi unlocked and every time goes fine flashing recovery from fastboot
Hit thanks if i helped

You can easily flash this one ZCX Twrp. Is the best i didn`t encountered any issue until now. I`ve flashed custom roms and miui roms as well.. The install process is very simple, follow this one https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/zcx-twrp-install-twrp-flash-supersu-t3462448

Zenfone 2 absolutely no way to recover recovery..

I recently upgraded my phone to OFFICIAL marshmallow update that Asus provided. Upon doing so my phone's bootloader got magically locked again and when I tried to flash custom TWRP recovery via fastboot the recovery got corrupt. I tried unlocking bootloader again with the software but it isn't supported cause It's marshmallow. The recovery can't be recovered to stock version either. What do I do? I can only access fastboot and nothing else.

stuck at boot - but why

hi there,
i have got a redmi note 3 pro that keeps stuck in bootloop.
Tried:
- boot to fastboot
- fired up miflash
- rebooted phone to edl
-miflash recognized phone
- flashed "kenzo" fastboot rom (tried global stable + kenzo_global_images_V7.1.8.0.LHOMICL_20160129.0000.14_5.1_global + chinese stable)
phone remains stuck in bootloop after restart.
Is there something I am missing? Please help me out.
(I guess bootloader is locked, not my phone)
when in fastboot mode, check the state of your device (make sure you have fastboot installed):
-connect device to pc
-open cmd
-type "fastboot oem device-info"
once you know the bootloader is unlocked, open miflash tool and flash the stock ROM. I don't see you need to go to EDL mode. Miflash is for fastboot mode!
how did you not knowing the condition of your bootloader? you should know it in the first place before you do such things.
oh, and make sure the directory of your rom image doesn't have spaces in it (example: C:/Users/Ivan Kurnia/...) (be safe, move it to like C:/Desktop) otherwise it will only take 1 second to flash the rom (which flashing didn't happen)
Thank you for your ideas, I still dont know if bootloader is locked or not, because it is not my phone, I was just asked to help.
However I managed to flash TWRP, now everything is good.
