hello everyone,
my redmi note 3 pro special (kate) with locked bootloader and always original roms (never modified) has been stopped for about 2 years due to inactivity, but before it had always worked great!
wednesday I tried to turn on my kate.
the device went into continuous bootloop. whereupon I tried to enter fastboot, activate edl and flash with miflash a whole series of roms, from the last, to 9.6, 9.5, 6.7 and all those that can still be found, but always with the same disappointing result: the device makes the first start (sometimes forcing it with a restart because it remained enchanted for hours in the initial animation after the "mi" logo), but immediately during the initial configuration of the so returns to restart without allowing use.
whereupon, I decide to open the back of the redmi and disconnect the battery overnight, in the hope that this could solve any problems.
but unfortunately nothing...
after yet another flash and I start, I can't even start this morning: when I press the power button the fixed initial logo "mi" starts, goes off and starts again ... I'm practically in infinite bootloop ...
I only need the kate as a forklift, but I would be sorry to have to throw it away completely.
does anyone have a suggestion to get out of this troubles?

The phone was working normally, but out of nowhere, it started to reboot in a loop. It turns himself alone from the moment i put the battery, the MIUI logo comes up and reboots after 2 or 3 seconds, repeating this over and over.
I can access to the TWRP and i already changed to 3 different roms, did a wipe in all times, however the issue is still present. The On/Off button is not stuck for sure, so i already ruled out that option
I'm really trying no to go to the warranty, due to the fact it was bought in China, so i don't expect nothing good from them
If someone has an idea, please , i really appreciate.
Hi,
When you use TWRP, you have to wipe all : data, internal memory, cache...
Download official rom from MIUI forum : you can use Fastboot, I think it's better solution than TWRP...
Good luck

Hi, thanks for the advice but i cannot even access to the Fastboot, because after entering in fastboot mode the phone reboots again. However it doesn't reboot with TWRP.
The phone told me there was a new update I started to install it, got to reboot and now is just on the elephone logo which comes every 20 sec and goes again. I cannot turn the phone off or do anything with it. Any help please
For me just shut down the phone and then reiniciat the phone ....work for me....

so my battery was fully empty now.. i even pressed the power button 100 times after the battery was empty, to make sure all current is out of the phone.
plugged in charger... after 10 seconds phone start itself (after viewing the picture of empty battery) and elephone logo shows short and then back to showing picture of empty batterie cycle. After some minutes, and battery is loaded a little bit, elephone logo cycles again.
So rest in piece my p9000, i can nothing, i cant do anything from my pc because its only starting for like 5 seconds, i cant shut it down because of that and i cant get in factory mode
i am so pissed right now
just wanted to install the new update, everything worked fine like all the times before that and now my phone is ready for the trashcan.
Is there any way to reset the software without getting in factory mode?

the phone turns on and off in a cycle of 5 seconds, so that wont work
and i cant stop that cycle.
even if battery is 0% (i even press power button many times so really its drained out). If i recharge it, the cycle starts again without me doing anything. The Power button is not broken or something. it all began after i started new ota update and the phone rebooted like "mkitty" has the same problem it seems
Same for me, I have no idea how to restart my phone. And i dont want to loose all data I have on it.
have you tried to hold the volume up and power at the same time during the restart process to try and force recovery?

Hello,
Yes . I have tried that.
I have a list of options that come up on the screen.
I have tried them apart from the wipe data/factory reset.
But it is still the same result.
Thank you for help.
Any more ideas?

It said something about wifi and audio update. I followed the instructions as per a previous update (which worked OK). I never took notice of any version numbers etc.

Its actually a great phone. Do you have twrp installed and can you get access to it? You could always boot into twrp transfer over the ROM and install it from there. If you have installed the vcom drivers then when the USB not recognized alert pops up. Go to settings and device manager. Right click the unknown device and click let me pick driver. You should be able to install it from there
The only thing I can suggest is to take the back panel of and unplug the battery. There videos on how to do this if you search YouTube or the forum. Effectively you perform a hard reset of the phone.
If and when you do get it working just twrp installed and do a backup of the whole phone working before performing any future upgrades or Rom changes. Its just better safe then sorry.
thenk you very much for that
The problem is that when I connect the phone on the off to the pc starts again the cycling through the elephone logo so the pc sees the phone for a few seconds in which does not recognises it and then is like the phone goes off until the next cycle so no time to go to device manager and install manually. but thank you for the comment.
removing the battery will void the warranty. I had the phone only since may.
It's unlikely it really matters. Your phone seller not going to take it back or fix it for free just because it's bootlopping. Well they may so just ask them. If you can't get it into recovery then a battery disconnect or contact your seller are your options
thank you

I can get it into recovery mode but I haven't got any software install in the sd card to do a recovery that is why I thought my only option was the sp flashing tool and the room which I have

Well in that case all you need is a stock rom and yes just flash them with sp tools and it should start booting again. The fact you can get to recovery is a good sign.

sorry for all of this and thank you very much for your help but when I put the phone in recovery mode by pressing the down volume and power key and connect the phone to the pc it is not recognized by the pc so I can't flash the room
I replaced the broken screen on my Kenzo and now it's stuck at the Mi logo. Funny thing is the technician said when he disconnects the touch ribbon it boots normally (but obviously with no touch) and locks up with Mi logo when it's connected. I've read that the mtk and sd screens are interchangeable so I don't think that's the issue. I don't have access to another screen so I have to make do with this one anyway.
I bought the phone from Gearbest two years ago and it came with the vendor rom which I never changed. I'm suspecting the vendor rom has something to do with it and now is the perfect time to flash a new rom before I sell it. Only problem is I have no clue how to flash a rom. I can get it to the fastboot screen but that's it.
Could someone please help me but in plain laymans English? Flashing for Dummies kind of thing. I've been a member here a while but haven't grasped the lingo or their meanings yet.
Thanks in advance.

Google miflash
And download it.
Also download the latest miui developer rom
http://bigota.d.miui.com/8.1.25/miui_HMNote3ProGlobal_8.1.25_16348801ef_6.0.zip
Search for EDL.zip from xda itself and follow the instructions to get to edl mode from fastboot mode( to see if it's in edl mode check for the red blinking status LED when connected to the pc)
Now open miflash as administrator connect your phone to the PC.
Miflash should see it as something like COM..
Now extract the developer rom and in miflash browse for the extracted direvtory
At the bottom right select clean_all lock.bat and then press flash..
After few minutes the flashing should get completed and then hold the power button on the phone until u see the mi logo.
Wait for the booting to get completed and then setup the phone..
Congratulations you bow have a working phone again.

Thanks for the help. Well I got it all the way to flash in edl and around 9% it gave an error message "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" or something similar. So it basically failed. What can I do? I'm almost there

Google some fastboot commands to erase partitions...
It should be something like this
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase cache
> fastboot erase recovery
> fastboot erase system
> fastboot erase userdata
First go to fastboot mode by holding vol down and power together .
Then connect to PC and then install minimal adb and fastboot kit. Then open the shortcut in desktop and then type fastboot devices and check if u device is there or not. If yes then copy and paste the commands above and then repeat the EDL flash procedure.

This is depressing. I followed your instructions and used the command "fastboot format partition" as that's the only one that would work and was suggested in options. The result was "failed device locked". :crying::crying::crying:
Yep. Same result. Does the bootloader have anything to do with all this?
Any ideas why it would boot normally with the touch ribbon disconnected but bootloop when connected? I'm beginning to wonder if flashing will even work.
WELL!! My phone is suddenly working. After trying all sorts of flashing methods I put it on the charger this morning and just took it off and it's working perfectly.
What happened was I read another thread about flashing the Global rom with a locked bootloader. At the very end of the instructions and almost as an after thought, the author mentioned that you must boot the phone into recovery in order to clear the cache etc otherwise the phone will be stuck on the Mi logo. It sounded similar to my problem so I did volume up and power key together and the Mi logo came up. Thinking nothing had changed I did volume down and power and went into fastboot. Again nothing changed. So I switched it off, put it on the charger and left it for about 4 hours. I just took it off the charger 20 minutes ago and it was working perfectly.
Perhaps someone can explain what the heck happened? Meanwhile I'm selling it pronto. Lol

Maybe the power button is the power... Check of it is in pressed condition... Or take to service center...

First try to reboot your device if it is bricked by try to do some unstable thing on it then wiping all data will be the last option
