Need help.. cant turn on my Phone.. always stuck at android one Logo and fastboot (when i try hold volume up and power )
i rooted phone (adb,twrp,magisk) . Everything well good, but WIFI didn't work. Then i get in TWRP and maybe deleted partition A and B( ) i can't get through the Fastboot.
my mi a3 is V10.3.6.0.PFQMIXM version-- and cant Flash it with miflash tool, it says error : can not found file flash_all_lock.bat
now i cant find my device with Adb devices (its says List of devices attached)
pls help :/ thank you.
Go to nearest service centre
Going to a service center probably isn't a wise idea. You've rooted your phone - your warranty is gone.
I guess you don't have the right drivers installed OR, the stock rom you were trying to flash had some issues with the flash script. You might want to take a look at this post
Download the correct stock ROM for your device, the .tgz version & flash it with miflash tool. It's important to note that some versions of miflash tool don't work with Mi A series phones for unknown reasons.
Alternatively, if your recovery is working, then you can flash the recovery version of stock rom. It's all available on this forum.

Glad to hear you're phone is working fine now :highfive: :highfive:
I think you somehow had your wifi / mobile data on & the phone downloaded the OTA & auto updated itself to the latest firmware, that is V10.3.6.0.

Set active slot to a first before flashing in MiFlash using command - "fastboot set_active a" (without quotations) in adb command.

I finally got miflash to recognize my phone by adding a new folder and naming it "log" and i tried flashing "laurel_sprout_global_images_V10.3.8.0.PFQMIXM_20191012.0000.00_9.0_d099f2839b" ; it said it was flashing and had green progress bar, but it went all the way to 100% after about 600 seconds and i just gave up after 1200 seconds. what am I missing?

Just reboot your device when it finishes after 600 seconds. Miflash doesn't tell you that it successfully flashed it it just goes on forever. So just reboot and it will work.

I believe I need to get it into EDL mode. I have no problem taking off the back glass and shorting the pins to do so, but not sure what to do after that point... Set slot to active "a", flash it with miflash with a fastboot stock ROM? Also from what ive read, you can only put thw phone into edl mode once so it's a one shot deal.

Try to unlock bootloader once again through fastboot and after that you can change the slot.

managed to get into EDL mode by shorting the pinouts, but still cant flash stock ROM cuz apparently xiaomi has to authorize it (ie i dont have permission to unbrick it). This is the first and last xiaomi phone I'll ever buy - never had a phone where there was no option i had to unbrick it. going to ****in smash it to peices!
I felt sorry that no one did help these people,
go to fastboot and run windows commands in twrp folder and type as following :
- option one:
fastboot devices
./fastboot set_active b
./fastboot erase boot
./fastboot set_active a
./fastboot erase boot
fastboot flashing unlock (optional)
fastboot Flash boot [put twrp name].img or go to mi flash to install stock rom. or unzip the stock rom from bat file run it
or try the second option:

EDIT:
In my way of trying to apply to warranty and flashing the stock package into the phone and Windows being Windows, I had problems using the batch script, it stopped for long time and didn't do nothing forcing me to restart the phone and restart the batch, until I uninstalled the driver and make Windows reinstall it automatically (manage devices) and it finally flashed it all, actually I flashed the package three times just to be sure lol. So, in the end I wanted to turn off the friggin phone because I was very done with it (what a PITA it has been) and wanted to apply for my warranty so as there is no command in fastboot to shutdown the phone I didn't know how to shut it down so I tried pressing Power button and releasing it the moment the screen goes off but I think I didn't do it right or the phone can't be shutdown that way (this is most probably the answer), well the phone rebooted and by the grace of Zeus it booted for the first time into MIUI and now is waiting for me to configure the phone, none of the times I flashed this packaged into the phone it booted into MIUI, never, and just when I want to turn the phone this thing boots, I don't know if I'm going to venture into flashing anything again being the phone how it is but goddamnit it was a real PITA, I had to use my old Redmi Note 3.
So, tl;dr: Flashed stock package, phone booted finally, all is OK for now.
====================================================================================================
====================================================================================================
Sooo, I was having problems with flashing stuff on this phone but I solved them and I was able to flash HavocOS, it was OK and I could use my phone kinda well (some reboots but nothing serious, or so I thought). So, until 12 hours ago my phone was having problems with the File Manager (I used FX app and also the stock one), it hanged and didn't respond and made the phone reboot itself a couple times, that was weird, actually the whole time I used this ROM I was having problems with my files, it used to took long time to read some files and I was thinking that maybe my SD was bad but apparently it's not. So, after the second reboot I was able to finally open the file manager but navigating through the SDCard was buggy and the app didn't show me any file (it show me an empty list) so I rebooted my phone manually (this time wasn't done by the phone itself) and now is when the phone never passed from the Havoc logo, I waited something close to 30 min and nothing, rebooted and waited 10 min and nothing, it still hanged on the logo, went into recovery to wipe everything and re-flash all and after doing all that and tried to boot to system my phone was booting to recovery and didn't past that, tried installing stock (flash_all script) and then installing recovery and everything again and nothing, it booted to recovery always. So there is when I realized I couldn't change anything in the slot A (at least to what boot refers), I can't install TWRP nor OrangeFox, I can do it in slot B, and even if I boot into recovery on slot B I can flash the zip installer, change the slot and try to boot to recovery from slot A but it boots to the bootloader, and yes, TWRP didn't output any error when flashing the installer.
Yes, the script flashes everything OK, well not everything, system and vendor partitions (A and B) I had to flash them manually because it gave me some errors with the script (reading errors, and yes I compared checksums so it was super weird) but in the end supposedly the stock ROM must have been installed, which I couldn't try because even after flashing everything on the script the phone was booting to bootloader, I didn't give importance to this because before I was able to flash and boot HavocOS I did the same thing because my phone was bootlooping into fastboot: I ran the script, flashed manually those images because it gave me the same errors, tried to boot to system and the phone booted to bootloader, didn't give a sheat, flashed OrangeFox recovery, ROM, recovery installer, GApps, nofde patch and then I was able to boot to HavocOS. But now this time I tried to install TWRP with fastboot command but it didn't worked, fastboot doesn't throw any errors while flashing, it reported:
Sending 'boot_a' (39780 KB) OKAY [ 1.042s]
Writing 'boot_a' OKAY [ 0.208s]
Finished. Total time: 1.263s
But if I try to boot into recovery it sends me to fastboot/bootloader, if I do this in the slot B I can successfully boot into recovery and, as I said, if I flash the installer, change the slot and reboot to recovery, my phone reboots to fastboot.
This has happened to someone else?
Does anybody knows of any solution?
I still have warranty (phone has less than 3 months) so I probably can flash the stock package and lock my bootloader so I can get my phone checked as probably it is a hardware failure, probably and hopefully .
Oh, and also I have to add that the recovery was also lagging sometimes (OrangeFox). Sometimes when I was looking into files on the SD, also when I pressed the "reboot system" button it hanged for half a minute and the it proceeded to reboot, and also once when I was flashing the nofde patch the phone also hanged and rebooted into recovery by itself. So this indicates that maybe is a hardware thing right? Because there is no way that the recovery could have gotten corrupted or something just out of the blue.
Yes. I'm another victim here... And now I can't install recovery on slot b either. Can't figure out what's wrong. This giving me such a hard time...

What I ultimately did was wipe everything on slot A, then wipe everything on slot B, then I proceeded to install the ROM on the slot A then re-flash the recovery and reboot to system and that's all. But I did had to wipe both slots A and B. If nothing works you can apply the original ROM (search for it on these forums) and go back to stock.

In my case, I wiped system and installed Evolution X ROM (OSS version) with Custom Recovery (SHRP) Then when I want to reboot into recovery again to flash Magisk, There's no recovery... It always opens with fastboot mode. I tried flashing recovery.zip from slot b. Still no result.
Yes. I'm next victim here... And now I can't install recovery on slot b nor slot a. Can't figure out what's wrong. When i flash twrp recovery it flash successfully but when I boot into recovery it stuck in fastboot mode
Change slot and flash again but nothing worked it again stuck in fastboot mode even i flash different version of Twrp(3.2.1) but again it stuck in fastboot mode both a and b slot.
So i flashed stock rom and lock bootloader.
If have any solution how to install custom recovery please help me.

Because there are 2 different twrp's.
One of which is for Android 9 and the other for Android 10. You are flashing the wrong one which is why you go to fastboot.
All documentation is on the applicable threads.
People need to stop blindly flashing stuff without reading the documentation or even know what they are doing.
So many people have bricked mi A3 because they don't read first

First if all reboot into fastboot mode then connect with pc then type command " fastboot flashing unlock" enter now again forcefully reboot into fastboot mode then type next command "fastboot flashing_critical unlock" now bootloader unlock.
Again reboot into fastboot mode then type command "fastboot getvar current-slot"
Now change current active slot and then type command " fastboot erase boot" . Now finally flashed twrp latest (3.4) for Android 10 with command "fastboot flash boot twrp.img" now it flash successfully then type command "fastboot reboot" and then press volume up then hit enter and it return in fastboot mode then i have again change slot and repeat all process with that slot but it again stuck in fastboot mode. After all i have changed twrp version but again same thing repeat so I flashed stock Android 10 through Mi flash and lock bootloader.
That's all whole process.
If do something wrong please help me to figure out.
Waiting for your reply ?.

Current State:
TWRP Installed, no OS, no system partition, instead a super partition.
I also flashed an orange_state_disabler which seems to have worked just fine.

I converted the lineageos img file I have to a flashable zip using the tool from here:

A Custom ROM like LineageOS can only get installed via TWRP, not by any other means: in no case by "adb sideload".

Your posted error messsage suggests the zip install has failed. So no change to device should have happened.
Current twrp cannot flash system.img
Only super.img(combined system.img, vendor.img, and product.img)
The systemswapper you refered to is from a qualcom device thread, and uses some *qti* device binaries that are not in your recovery. It is unlikely to have worked. (I might be wrong about the *qti* binary being only a qualcom device tool)
These new devices with dynamic partition have 2 fastboot modes.
The bootloader mode (adb reboot bootloader)
This is used for unlocking bootloader, flashing standard partitions
There is fastbootd mode (adb reboot fastboot)
This mode is only available if stock recovery is installed.
It also requires r30 or higher fastboot binary file on PC.
From fastbootd you can flash the sub partitions on super.img
There is alot of changes that take place with this new partition setup.
As for your phone no longer booting into original system, and bootlooping to recovery, I suggest first try boot to bootloader, and flash stock recovery, see if this stopps the bootlooping.
If not then use sp flash tool and flash full stock room and start fresh

Fastbootd is part of stock recovery, it will look different than what you may be used to as being fastboot mode.
You should see options on screen to select just like stock recovery has.
One for boot to bootloader
One for boot to recovery.
When you confirm you are in fastbootd
You just use
Code:
fastboot flash system /some-directory-on -pc/gsi-system.img
You should see messages on screen
Resizing system
Sending sparce system chunck. 1 of x
Writing system chunck 1 of x
There could be more descriptive guide on flashing gsi on dyniamic partitions if your Search google, (xda).
But it is hard to guide you to fixing device, when I'm not sure how you got stuck. I mean the description you have said should not have made you loose system partition or fail to boot, so I said it before and will suggest it again. If you have a non booting device , the FIRST thing you should do is flash it with sp flash tool and full factory rom, before messing around with other stuff before you get into worse condition

Ok, I am back to a fully working device again, where I got stuck was that I do not have a system partition, thus I can't flash it. Whenever I try to flash it using fastboot flash system or anything else, it just says that I do not have a system partition
Where I am right now:
I am back to a fully working device after downloading the stock ROM from my manufacturer and plugging that into SP Flash tool
After that I researched and figured out that the super partition I have basically acts like a container for
system.img, boot.img and vendor.img
which explains while simply flashing LineageOS.img to my super partition (
Code:
fastboot flash system Lineage.img
) resulted in
my device not booting anymore.
I found a tool which can unpack those super.img into system, boot and vendor
(using this youtube video: https://youtu.be/J5cQdzivtXk)
I used that to unpack the super.img which I got from my stock ROM and
now I have system.raw, boot.raw and vendor.raw, I do not know what kind of file these are but my plan is to replace system.whatever with the lineageos.img and then repack it into super.img which I can then use to flash the super partition on my phone

I'd love to but how am I supposed to take a picture of my phone screen in fastboot mode? (I don't have any other devices with a camera)
@MoonPadUSer
Code:
fastboot flash system Lineage.img
must have failed.
Reason: This command tries to write a complete Lineage OS ( what itself contains a partition named /system, too ) into phone's Android's current /system partition - what only is 1 partition of multiple ones that exist.
Note: You can't flash a Custom ROM by means of Fastboot.

Actually... I don't really care about the version all that much, whatever works, just didn't know if 18x is supported
Downside to Lineage GSI is for Umidigi you can't flash gapps. So unless someone adds it to the gsi for you it's best to use something else.
I went with this
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...velopment/aosp-10-0-quack-phh-treble-t3992559
You have to get the AB version with GAPPS if you want them
Comes pre rooted as well and gave my phone a huge speed boost
Flash the stock ROM
Unlock bootloader
fastboot flashing unlock
(unnecessary if already unlocked)
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
enter fastboot
fastboot reboot (to enter fastbootd)
fastboot erase system
(optional but I had to do this myself)
fastboot delete-logical-partition product - deletes the product partition, allowing a larger system partition
fastboot flash system (gsi file)
And you're good
Don't try to install magisk because it causes a bootloop. Even when installing it through the app. Once the boot image is patched you're in a bootloop until you reflash the stock boot

Hi all
i want to install TWRP on my Doogee N20PRO . i cannot find a TWRP File on the internet to install. I could find some for the N20 but not for the N20PRO. it´s an Helios P60 Processor with an MTK6771. I tried to install the HAVOC 3.7 but i get the Message "writing 1/15 failed (remote: this partition doesn´t exist)

This is simple about TWRP: Your phone have МТК Helio Р60 MT6771V/CA WITH Android 10.0 and it's a NEW phone now. So no developments yet.
For install GSI ROMs your need unlock bootloader and after follow the correct instructions to new phones shipped with A10!
If you only want install GSI so I suggest:
1- Have stock ROM first, always!!;
2- With security 1- you should unlock bootloader;
3- You can install GSI with stock recovery without problems.
The only part is: you cannot backup userdata.....

Cool This helps already a lot.
i unlocked the Bootloader properly, but then i got a partition error. I assume i´ve an error in the command line. The phone was anyway only an interim solution till my POco F2 was back from repair. now i use it as a playground.
fastboot erase system - there i get a partition error.
erasing the User data was sucessful
but then
fastboot flash system system.img it stops at step 1/15 again for the partition error (partition doesn´t exist) Stock rom is available.
somebody knows the options i´ve to add to the command line?

Try but REMENBER I am not responsible for any errors. Bootloader should unlocked by adb-fastboot!!
Spoiler: Instructions
1. You need know the difference about fastboot and FASTBOOTD in your device!!
Your device has bootloader mode: recovery - fastboot - reboot (system)
Stock recovery has very options: reboot system - reboot to bootloader - wipe - Enter fastboot - ...
reboot to bootloader => normal fastboot
Enter fastboot => FASTBOOTD
FASTBOOTD => some options
2. Device in fastboot
Code:
fastboot --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
vbmeta file from stock ROM or pulled from device
3.
Code:
fastboot -w
4.
Code:
fastboot reboot fastboot
(you MUST be at the FASTBOOTD menu now. If not, you will not be able to flash the GSI successfully)
5.
Code:
fastboot erase system
or
Code:
fastboot delete-logical-partition system
6.
Code:
fastboot delete-logical-partition product
- deletes the product partition, allowing a larger system partition
I not need resize-logical-partition product. But if you want:
You will need a larger system partition to flash a GSI. There are 2 ways to achieve this
6A. fastboot resize-logical-partition product 509344768
6B. fastboot resize-logical-partition system 3089272064 or 3889272064
resizes product and system partitions. This gives you about 3GB of system partitions. You can adjust or arrive at your own numbers if you want different sizes.
7.
Code:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash system GSI.img
8.
Code:
fastboot -w
for confirm great & fast start GSI
9.
Code:
fastboot reboot bootloader
9A.
Code:
fastboot erase userdata
for confirm and boot clean
10. Reboot to system
Code:
fastboot reboot
Enjoy
I also have an N20 Pro which I received Dec 2020. Had some trouble setting it up. I got the OEM ROM from Doogee customer support and was able to extract the boot image and patch it with Magisk. I then burned it with the SP Flash tool. It wouldn't boot until I burned a special vbmeta.img to turn off encryption. Now it's working fine.
Sorry this doesn't help you with TWRP but I think most people looking for TWRP are really looking to root their phone.

Okay so what ive seen is that you should avoid flashing custom roms via adb fastboot especially with our doogee phones, and also there are many incompatiable roms so what you will need is to unlock bootloader and do the whole twrp install thing adn also install magisk
before hand install treble info from google playstore and take down the information "arm64 a/b" and search for roms with that information to install custom os/rom/gsi properly. GSI versions are more preferred if your phone supports treblle
if your twrp keeps getting wiped after reboot open file :mount your system and connect to pc via usbcable (mtp if not showing disable mtp and re- enable it )
now got to where build.prop is saved there will be a file called recovery from boot.p , copy the file to pc , open with notepad, remove everything , save and copy back to phone (overwrite)
then go ahead and install magisk
make sure your magisk is working install edxposed, riru core , and busybox ndk get the apps you need for them (edxposed manager...) and then instal and activate a module which you can test if its working(if framework is active in edxposed manager and the module working correctly then you can go ahead and
Install custom os through twrp
follow these instructions ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...lexperience-10-gsi-android-10-stable.4081685/ ) with your custom rom (corvus, havoc, lineage...
(the g-apps didnt flash for me (error code 64) but i just rebooted and everything was working fine (including gapps but camera sucked (doogee's rear camera setup was just terrible))
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...lexperience-10-gsi-android-10-stable.4081685/
** i can confirm follow instructions properly and it should work (i used this pixel experience on my doogee n20 make sure you unzip the .xz file and youre flashing a .img file
**also make sure its the gsi file (
I can't install any rom, ADB sideload fails with this error:
Unable to mount storage.
Devices on super may not mount until rebooting recovery.
To flash additional zips, please reboot recovery to switch to the updated slot.
I already tried to switch the slots many times.
I also tried to format data, but it tells me:
E: unable to check merge status
Updating partition details...
...done
Unable to mount storage
I can access the recovery and the factory-reset android, but i can't do anything more.
I think the problem is relative to encryption but I can't even format data, so I don't know how to escape this...
Now I can't even access the rom, I can only access TWRP and fastboot. The problem is that format data does not work, with the same error:
E: unable to check merge status
I tried repairing and changing filesystem, now I don't really know what to do...
just install rom using fast boot tool and
format data after that

I have never used fastboot tool. I'm on linux. Is this the program i must install?
And also, do I need a fastboot rom?

What is the correct process to install a ROM? This A/B thing gets me mad
Now I managed to install an old MIUI fastboot rom from this link with XiaomiADBFastbootTools (a kind of mi flash tool for linux) and this rom now it is working, so I think I had some problems with the fastboot tool you suggested. But I don't really know what was the problem, the installation process seemed to work, It restarted to recovery, I rebooted to system but then it kept returning to recovery or to fastboot without entering in the system...
Switching slots directly in recovery is not functional. Just look after switching what the active slot is and you will see that it has not changed. Do the slot switching with the fastboot command from the PC.
fastboot --set-active=a
fastboot --set-active=b

yes, I was using these commands to switch slots. but when it is necessary to switch slots in the flashing process? I mean, what is the correct order? format - flash rom with adb - reboot to fastboot - switch slot - reboot to system...is this correct?
Slot swapping may not be required. Do it only when it is requested or when the boot crashes into recovery.

Redmi Note 10 64GB/4GB, I think the codename is sunny because I have the global/european version. Do you need more?
I think the best step is to upload the original Miui using MiFlash with the "clear all" setting.
Use this version of MiFlash.
You can get the right Miui here.
Before using MiFlash, I recommend loading the boot.img included in the downloaded Miui into your phone in fastboot mode.
Use the command:
fastboot flash boot_a boot.img
fastboot flash boot_b boot.img
Then use MiFlash and don't play Miui. Wait until the phone starts itself, then you can disconnect it.
If anything is not clear, ask questions.

Actually I'm already in a original MIUI and it is working. My pc is on linux so I can't use MiFlash but I used XiaomiADBFastbootTools (a kind of MiFlash tool for linux). Can I start from here or I have to install the MIUI version you linked?
The only thing is that I didn't specifically load the boot.img
Unfortunately I don't know the Linux version of MiFlash. They may not work equivalently. It needs to properly clean all the partitions of the phone and load all the files supplied in the ROM.
I recommend to use the Miui listed by me.
