Think I have bricked my phone - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers

I recently installed a rom using the fastboot method and inadvertantly locked my phone during the install. The rom installed fine but now in a boot loop with this message " Find Device Storage Corrupted. Your Device Is Unsafe Now". I have also lost my twrp recovery so seem to be locked out of any form of recovery. Any ideas before i bin the phone in frustration.

I remember that way to flash rom has options to lock your phone back. 1st you have to unlock your phone then flash rom back ( remember to untick lock the phone after flash ) try it. Hope my advices can help you.

Unfortunately I cannot get into my phone to sign into my miui account or turn on debugging. I am in a boot loop so cannot do anything.

My problem still persists and would appreciate any help please....

Bricked G2 Mini

Hi! I've managed to brick my device (d610ar) badly, i think
the device doesn't boot normally (message "Secure booting error! Cause: boot certification verify.", and i am stuck there), can't charge it with the wall charger, and the only thing that works is download mode; but flashing a kdz with LG FlashTool (the way i went back to stock a few times) says flashing and at 2% (or 3% sometimes) it says that doesn't find the device, that i have pull out the battery to reconnect my device again and when i do that it does the same thing on a loop, asking to do it again later..
the funny thing is that it appears on device manager on windows, on com port 11 for example, but the FlashTool doesn't recognize it..
so, i can't flash any kdz and doesn't boot.. i've read around here in xda to enter fastboot to fix it, but.. can this device enter fastboot? i couldn't do it, tried adb too and couldn't make the device visible..
i, before this happened, had multirom installed, rebooted to recovery and deleted secondary roms to install in primary rom cm12.1.. there started to happen strange things when rebooted normally to configure it..
after a while trying to boot found around here in xda too that i could enter twrp recovery via hardware keys to reinstall again, so got into it and installed a flashable zip to come back to stock KitKat directly, that have worked for me before..
after that rebooted and i can't do anything else than download mode..
i kinda figured that the problem must be that multirom injected the boot sector after installing the stock flashable zip, and when i did that restored the stock aboot and abootb (these, modified carefully, allowed us to unlock bootloader and flash recoveries, etc, etc.. ; by the way, many thanks to the devs that discovered it and made the guides!)..
now i have read the instructions for flash via fastboot the stock boot.img and so pass the security verification, but i can't enter it..
so, what do you think that could be the next step? or is it really hard bricked and i should forget about it? i'm really hoping to recover it but i don't know what else to do..
sorry for the bad english, not my primary language
thanks for reading and i am hoping to hear some suggestions!
He is not hard bricked you need to flash stock boot and reunlock bootloader if you have custom recovery still installed, but go first with the eazy way search xda about lg flash tool stuck at 2% there some guides to help you get kdz flashed
Thank you very much!

Thank you very much! You made me realize why wasn't working..
Because of you, i started to search threads related with the "flashtool stuck at 2%" and one of the things to look at was a txt file to see what was the problem.. there i found out that the lg FlashTool recognized my device as LGD618..
That's when i realized that i must've messed up when i flashed a lollipop flashable zip for the D618(a while ago), "converting" my cellphone on that model.. so when i connected on download mode and put the LGD610 kdz the comparison of cellphone model and binary model didn't match..
Solution was to flash LGD618 kdz, boot up normally, install towelroot, install supersu, edit a line on build.prop
from persist.multisim.config=dsds to persist.multisim.config=none
rebooted and that's it.. everything works perfectly now! i won't be doing stuff to it for a while
probably will stay stock like that, because now i will be using an OnePlus One in a few days and the G2 mini will be used by my mother, i think..
Thanks again! You saved my device for being bricked forever
i glad i could helped you :good:
I tried installing kitkat having installed lollipop and did not work, also I tried installing lollipop and nothing. Well I think this update lollipop are adding some kind of lock to disallow downgrade or upgrade by KDZ. I try other methods, unlocking bootloader, and install a aboot.img, bricked my phone. I recommend that you do not attempt to unlock the bootloader and install any system image that is not official, or may end up with a dead device.

I dunno what that is, but I want to use my android phone and cannot access it.
Is my phone bricked?
I am not tech savvy but I rooted it successfully, following instructions, and today, the problem started when I downloaded android 5.0 on a phone that has been rooted.
Could anyone help me access my phone again, but in terminology that I understand?, that would be very helpful thank you.

Locked into Recovery - unlocking disabled and won't boot

Hi everyone,
I was on Cyanogenmod and had disabled bootloader unlocking from development settings. After trying to update, I'm now stuck in recovery. While rebooting, the oneplus logo appears but later it just reboots to recovery. In fastboot, I can't flash anything because it says the bootloader is locked (I obviously can't fix that from settings because the phone won't boot). I'm able to get into TWRP so is there a way to enable bootloader unlocking using it?

Go to fastboot and boot into stock recovery, don't install. Just boot to recovery, command should be something like below.
fastboot boot recovery-name.img
If you can go to opx recovery, flash stock rom and see

That didn't work. Had to flash the stock rom, re-enable unlocking, unlock and flash.

I have the same problem, stuck in recovery, can't unlock, but worse: For some reason I have Cyanogenmod recovery installed, not TWRP. Now, can't install any stock rom. Tried from SD card and by sideload, but it seems that it just doesnt "stick" to /system. So, I am stuck in recovery, can't install CM, and can't unlock, to install TWRP.
Any ideas, other than getting a new phone tomorrow morning?
Thanks

Ah no. You'll probably need to find someone who can re-sign CM so that it'll flash.
Thanks for the answer, I have no idea how to do this, how is this done? I don't seem to find much info online...

NO Need To Worry by following this procedure you are going to install stock recovery. first, you have to download this zip.
link - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982087019810
after downloading this zip copy and extract it on your desktop (PC or Laptop). now switch OFF your opx and connect it with your pc by pressing vol Up button, you will find that pc installing some drivers if it install the drivers then you are going right. now after connecting your opx to pc open the extracted folder and open "MsmDownloadTool V2.0" . on opening this you will see the list of attached devices (for ex. com device and if your device is not connected then it will show No device). If you your device is attached then you have to click on START Tab on left top corner. it takes 30 ~ 40 Sec to complete the whole process after that your opx restart with installed stock recovery. through this recovery you can flash H2OS and OOS. If you want to install TWRP first of all you have to install oos or H20s after flashing, you have to allow oem unlock in developer setting.

Thank you. I had tried this procedure previosuly, and didn't work. This time, since you insisted, I tried again, on another computer, and the phone was correctly detected, drivers installed and factory image installed on phone. I am happy again

Accidentally deleted the OS

So, I accidentally deleted my OS through TWRP recovery while I was trying to clear the cache. Now the device is stuck at the Xperia logo and I can't even access TWRP anymore. I can't get flashtool to recognize my device either. I don't know what to do. Is my device doomed? Any help would be really appreciated.

I also deleted everything on my Z2 a couple of weeks ago and thought it was dead, but my PC detected my Z2 in fastboot immediately.
Check your drivers and try with a different USB cable; maybe other PC?...
Enter fastboot mode and then flash a kernel with TWRP.
brother,
For locked bootloaders the TWRP is a part of the ROM. never do a wipe system in TWRP with Locked bootloader.
but don't worry and be sure your device isn't dead at all. just follow the below steps in the link in order to use flashtool and flash your phone, I recomend using the old following version of flashtool http://www.flashtool.net/downloads_windows_prev.php
http://www.gizmobolt.com/2015/04/09...z3-23-1-a-0-690-ftf-using-flashtool-manually/
OP has found the solution himself, thread closed.

how to root doogee bl12000 pro

as stated above, i can't seems to find a workable root method for this device. i've already tried kingroot, kingoroot, and some unknown website that claimed have solution to root this device and make my phone restart and restart and restart.. luckily, my phone still can be saved.
im now at dead end. can someone help me how to root this device, and a clear tutorial since, im not good with android system..
thanks..
bump
while waiting for someone to come out with help. I've found a website which have "unofficial" twrp.
https://unofficialtwrp.com/doogee-bl12000-pro/
I want a comfirmation if this site is trustworthy.
I've tried flash the twrp into my phone but it keep booting at recovery and can't boot into system.
I'm flashing using CMD like this:
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot boot recovery.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and what the function of "fastboot flashing unlock"?
I'm thinking of using magisk to root my phone but I don't know what "stock boot image dump".
bump
seems that https://unofficialtwrp.com/doogee-bl12000-pro/ really work, but for my case, it's required me to decrypt password, while im not had any password.
after many times of rooting effort, it success. for those who have problem that occur to me:- BOOTLOOP at RECOVERY and RECOVERY can't read SDCARD or STORAGE
1. Root your phone using the twrp above
2. if bootloop to recovery, make sure you have sdcard and have supersu flash file inside it.
3. in twrp, go to wipe. and then format factory
4. go to mount and choose media sdcard
5. at the homescreen, go to install and then flash the supersu flash file.
6. done

in my case my phone gained root permission, but lose twrp recovery. i don't really know about phone, so i hope someone can add something to make this clear to who's that read.
my goal is to root, so without having twrp doesn't concern me much.
well.. my mistake.. the TWRP is there. i dindt realize it.
