Does anyone know how to access this tool?
This is ridiculous, realme has no useful tool to flash their phones and the one that is useful are impossible to access... The only one that I have access was one patched for some especific Oppo phone.
I found some guys that unbrick via TeamViewer, but the service is around 40 bucks... $40 for the guy to have two clicks on MSM... Oh my...
Am I missing something?
Very grateful for any help.
I gave up, three days trying to fix this thing, I'm tired... I paid a guy to flash via TeamViewer... And as I imagined... With MSM Download Tool was five clicks and it's done... Ridiculous easy... MSM would be a amazing tool if it were accessible...
Was cheap, but c'mon... My dog could do that... Unfreaking believable...

Did you keep the app before the guy disconnected?
Yeah... But, the app needs a code... Tha he even typed, I saw it, but I didn't catch it.. lol..
Actually it's only the MSM 2.0.67 that I already had and the Realme Login Tool 2.0, that's the one and need a code... I tried to find this app before too, but looks that these people are hiding on some Telegram groups... Who knows...
Just these two softwares.
because want to know, Whether the conversion to global ROM was successful
RMX3300 to RMX3301
It worked for me using the procedures written here:

Thanks for sharing, will try again in a few days
The tutorial works, but there are some things you sould know if you never unlock or change the ROM before, like you need ADB propertly installed in your PC, cd command and corrects the drivers of the phone. So, i recommend see some tutorial about the topic.

Don't attempt to relock the bootloader using ADB as this will brick the phone.
Another issue currently encountered is that OEM Unlocking is greyed out

Hi,
This phone is brand new and is the WCDMA version of the Golden Warrior. Best value 4G and spec available in mu opinion.
I had the phone delivered to the UK today from China.
I can't for my life root the phone using any method. I also tried to flash the TWRP from china but no luck. Just goes to the original recovery.
It doesn't come with Gapps which is what I am trying to load.
Anyone can help to translate a rooting/recovery from this forum please? http://bbs.lenovo.com/a8
Actually I managed to flash the recovery and can now root
try flash

You have to flash the recovery twice in a row. There is root and gapps in the same forum.
You need to use Google Translate if you can't read chinese.

Can you upload the files and send us the links?
The files I am downloading from the Chinese website are corrupted.
(also if possible to give guide on the chinese TWRP, and what to do with it).
Also it will be very helpful if you could send the exact URL to the Root guide
and the exact URL for the how to install gapps guide.
Thank you.
I'll be needing this in a few weeks, I ordered one yesterday. Coming from an iPhone too, so it'll be a bit different for me, I wanted a cheap powerful 4G/LTE handset and this seemed to fit the bill quite well.
the phone ain't really that great, my piece has at least one dead pixel, shiny slippery back is just horrible (waiting to buy as soon as possible some replacement), headphones output is just horrible with constant noise/hiss not possible to listen unless you are deaf (compared to zero noise in TCL S950), brightness of display is quite weak (again compared to TCL S950) and let's not forget heavily customized Androd 4.4.2 with tons of crappy Lenovo software (unlike Coolpad F1 which has AOSP Kit Kat), but at least after root you can disable the evil Lenovo app Security which will try to make you commit suicide (btw. don't upgrade it, unless you speak Chinese, since Lenovo engineers are so amazing they can't even provide English from within the update and let's not forget horrid English localization in general and missing any other languages than Chinese and English)
here I wrote review of my new Lenovo A8 aka A806 (WCDMA/FDD-LTE) Golden Warrior bought for 111EUR (shame there is nothing available in better body with normal sound even if I would be willing to pay 20-30% extra for design and better sound) and tutorial HOW TO ROOT LENOVO A806/A8 it with links provided (I am using URL shortener service since XDA won't allow me to link my own tutorial because apparently I am spammer when I wanna help other people):

Oh, yeah and thank you so much XDA for using Recaptcha which is blocked in China, it makes posting anything useful soo much easier from within China.
I reuploaded mtk fladh tool + twrp recovery with img and scatter file to bunch of international mirrors, link to them is in my review and howto root tutorial on my blog linked in my post above. Whole ZIP package is misding only USB driver which is not rrally necessary and its on plenty of websites to dpwnload.

Thank you PeterMarkoff !!
Can you explain me in stage 1: what is "+ choose MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin"? I didn't understand what it is and I didn't see this file anywhere else.
Thanks again
I am sorry but because of Recaptcha I must post from mobile (where I have free proxy only for few mins), so can't write long posts and they are full of typos, if you have questions better write on my blog.
Open MTK flash tool, change language to ENG which should there already as well in Settings/General/Download "DA DL All with checksum" should be checked. Then just choose as Download-agent MTK Allinone DA bin which is supplied together with MTK flash tool and Scatter-loading file choose alston_fddopen which is in TWRP Recovery folder. Whole process of flashing 2 times is quite straightforward, only major thing which needs to be said is that battery needs to be removed to completely shut down phone (and do this also when phone starts automatically booting after successful flashing), otherwise it didn't worked for me no matter how many times I successfuly flashed phone there always stayed original Lenovo recovery.
In this Chinese thread you have picture tutorial in first post which is selfexplanatory even in Chinese:
bbs lenovo com/a8/t402705/ (replace missing spaces with dots)
Hahah, I see the guy added also photos for Chinese TWRP for international users, since he saw my posts there. Not sure what is possible to see wihout registration to forum. Here is my screenshot how it should look after successful flashing when you can remove battery and do it for 2nd time and then after 2nd time boot into TWRP recovery.
oi57 tinypic com/2z8tix0.jpg (replace missing spaces with dots)
Btw. yesterday I already tried Xposed, but it informed me that A806 is running probably Aliyun OS (CN crap) fork of Android so it's not recommended to install Xposed to avoid bootlops and other things, which I am not missing since it's similar situation with TCL S950 my wife has, she can't run anything higher than Xposed 2.3.1 otherwise it would end up in bootloop, but at least it seem like proper Android and not some Chinese fork.
Special thank you goes out to my Slovakian friend who lives currently in China. You totally nailed it with your tutorial.
Thanks again to you Markoff :good:
a808t
A have a8 golden warrior but td-scdma version. Is td-scdma hardware related or software? Can I flash a806 firmware with a808t unit? Ty in advance
No, you CAN NOT flash A806 firmware into A808T and vice versa, they are different. But there are actually tons of A808T ROMs on Chinese websites, much more than for A806 which is not that popular option in China. You should also know that 3G and 4G in your phone will work ONLY in China, everywhere else in world you have just 2G phone even without 3G.
ic. Is there a custom recovery in english for a808t/a806? The one I saw the that site is chinese
Sent from my GT-N7100 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Im hoping that there's any kindess developer would come out with a stable cm rom for A806

Hello there, I bouth a pptv king 7s and recived it yesterday. I want to install/fastbook TWRP on it so i can pull the original framework from the phone and have a backup. I tried to fastboot the phone with the pptv king 7 TWRP that i found on this forum but it didn't work, i assume its because there is some difference between the 7 and 7s because the 7s has a 3d display.
now my question is. can some of you help me to manage to fastboot the phone so i can pull the original framework from it or does some one else have the original framework? i would like to install TWRP on it later and Xposed Framework.
If i try to install the pptv king 7 framework i will lose all my 3d apps and the 3d wont work and won't be calibrated.
I am willing to try almost everything. And is it possible to install some 3d deep settings like the htc evo 3d (i think?) had.
Thanks.
Edit: the phone is standard rom/firmware and rooted with Kingroot
Edit 2: I found the original Rom here -> http://pan.baidu.com/s/1o8RgrDS it is a really slow download and you need to download some 3rd part program. I will do it and re-upload it here for you guys! i will edit it later.
And to flash the phone you need this flashtool -> http://pan.baidu.com/s/1nuUqmIt i will download and re-upload it too!
and some other guy said you could use the 2D rom so i prove the link to the download there too. -> http://pan.baidu.com/s/1skUk4Yp

This is excellent news, i have been searching for so long for this 7s firmware as i wish to convert my king 7 to a 3d version. They have spares on Banggood lcd screens and full housing, so was going to make this a my new project. Was just missing the firmware. So thank you very much
I also had Trouble flashing through sptool, and thought it was a problem with the mtk drivers as im using win 10, so i decided to flash twrp with flashify instead which worked a treat. Then did the normal flashing Su and Rom through twrp. Never used fastboot method, im quite new to flashing these chinese phones so i'm a bit cautious to try methods that im not to sure about.
I have cm13 on my king 7 now, but wish to convert it to the 3d version once my spares are ordered and are with me. But before i do this, do you think there's a possibility this would work? As the phones have physically the same hardware minus the 3d screen and firmware, so i shouldn't see why i couldn't work.

I thank you for the links above, but i think that is just a bit to much for me, i don't want to make a mistake, especially as it's in a different language.
Wish it was a bit more simple than the method in the video. If you could get the Rom and share, i would be very grateful.

Thank you for the links you have provided. I managed to install the flyme Rom, but quickly uninstalled again. Rom insn't optimized for the king 7 and there's no support for the three main buttons For Android (Back, home and menu) its a big shame that most chinese phone manufacturers mainly use apple based os's which really makes me annoyed. I heard there's a patch on a Russian forum for the buttons issue. But i think i will just stick with Cm 13 for now.
What is this zip you have posted? Is this another Rom? If so, is it working ok? Curious to know before flashing...
And i have some mtk drivers installed, but they're not working for me so unable to use sptool to flash any official Roms. Just using Twrp atm which i prefer
If you can link me to some that actually work, i would be grateful.

Oh dear, it looks like you have a normal King 7 NOT a 7's, if you had a 7's version, you would have a 3D gallery and other 3D software within the phone. Also it states only KING 7 not KING 7s the build number says PP6000(2D) if it was a 7s with 3D it would say PP6000(3D)
I would contact the supplier and demand a refund or a partial refund, did you buy from Gearbest by any chance?? I was speaking to someone on HUKD forums regarding this exact same issue and he received a partial refund of just £20!
I would keep pushing for more, as they have sold you the wrong product which is very misleading. Check AliExpress.com for spares, they have a 3D replacement screen for sale as well as full spare housing to make the switch to a 3D model (If you wanted)
I have yet to find a tear down tutorial to follow before i try this myself
So it isn't a Rom you posted?
@ fleebleflam
Yes I bought it at gearbest, I asked them if it was a King 7S, it answered me Yes

I don't think we need "to be patient". We must be polite, but persistent.
So, go and ask Xiaomi for a clear and responsible attitude. If you have the bricked phone problem, don't just spend time on the forums. Send an email to the Xiaomi customer service!

There are literally thousands of people with soft-bricked phones due to your poorly announced

The hottest topics on the MIUI forums are about Xiaomi not addressing the issue.
It is literally a flood. Here are some, and some that have been there for weeks.

Xiaomi's poor decision bricked thousands of new phones.
Some users did get authorizations, most of us were left hanging.
There are now scammers who post offers to unbrick for money, who ask
people for remote access to their PC and phone. Xiaomi is putting many, many
of its customers at unacceptable risks because of the stubborn refusal to
provide the required access in a timely manner. This is completely unacceptable.
You must not reply with boilerplate excuses, but with a solution.
Please don't stall, and explain your policy and "the server process" fairly to
everyone.
And please authorize my (and everyone else's) account for EDI flashing.

It's ok to ask Xiaomi for a statement but you cant really blame Xiaomi for the bricks.
They sell 2 kind of devices :
CHINA and Global.
China are supposed to work only in china and you should not "hack" them with unlocking+flashing others rom.
Global is what you are supposed to buy if you want a Xiaomi phone.
It's simple, at least read before unlock/flash things. That's why people have bricks now. It's written everywhere, with china model you CANT relock bootloader if global is on it. Easy. If you are touching bootloader is supposed that you know what you are doing, otherwise dont do it.

Most people buying Xiaomi devices on Chinese online stores don't know that policy and the seller didn't tell anything nor Xiaomi till a few weeks.
Xiaomi should stop selling hijacked devices.

Then fun fact is that. Xiaomi dont officially sell hijacked devices.
Resellers do it.
They buy stock of chinese devices and then "hack" with some EDL or something to unlock bootloader immediatly, flashing global and "advertising" it like a Global Phone. Some tell you that is unlocked+global, others dont.
For example, my case. Mi8 from eGlobal on eBay. It should've been STOCK Cinese Phone, with locked bootloader and just english or chinese language. It arrived with unlocked bootloader and global rom on it.
You can't really blame Xiaomi...
is it possible to unlock bootloader with a authorised Account immediatly? Or do i have to wait the 720h?

Sent from my MI 8 using Tapatalk
I am getting an MI 8 from AliExpress and the phone is a China variant with unlocked bootloader + global ROM on it. I know I can't relock the bootloader as it has a global ROM.
Couple of questions:
1. After I add my MI account to the device, will I be able to debrick it if it ever gets bricked?
2. Since it was unlocked by some reseller's account, it's tied to their account and only they can unlock it if it's bricked?
3. Only way to relock is to flash the China ROM and unlock it using my MI account (after 720 hours)?
1 depends the way u brick...
2 no... after the unlock, they remove the account from the phone.
3 u awnsered your on question. if you flash china rom, u will relock.. if u unlock after that, u will unlock the boot loader again.
Honestly, I also experienced this. My Mi 8 Bootloop into Recovery/Softbrick. I did use someone's services to make My Mi 8 work again without opening the phone. Cause in my country Xiaomi does not provide warranty for non official product.

I think you re-locked the bootloader after flashing Global ROM. You can unbrick it in 2 ways:
1. Unlock the bootloader again and flash Global Fastboot ROM keeping bootloader unlocked.
2. Use MiPCSuite V3 and flash China ROM again.
Thanks,

Kontak XFT Indonesia/Xiaomi Flashing Team.
Ada di Facebook akun FP sama Grupnya, coba dicek yg lokasi Jabodetabek.
i had the same issue.
unlocked bootloader - flashed Global miui 10 .. Bootlooped to recovery..
all you have to do is connect to the mi unlock tool and go through the unlock process.. it will boot up into miui 10.
@navin_n, @Dalendra7,
MiPCSuite V3 seems to work !... But it only accepted to flash the ROM that I already flashed via MiFlash and which bricked my phone, which is Global 10.0.2.0
So MiPCSuite V3 works but I can't install either an older global version or a Chinese version, older or more recent.
Except for EDL and test point, what are our options ?
Thanks

EDL and Test Point
UNDER TESTING
Hello XDA Community
I am new here, and 2 days ago i got my MI 8 Bricked and i saw a lot of users with that problem, so i want to revolution this
I tried to reverse engineering XiaoMIFlash and try to bypass EDL Authentification
I DONT HAVE TESTED IT, it took me 2/3 hours and i don't really know if it working (I Can't test it because i dont have any bricked phone at the moment)
I am alone doing this, maybe this community want to support me and help and make it a great bypass
DOWNLOAD LINK : https://mega.nz/#!rZZyRC7C!_EncWKE4rpt4JJv7Pz_pKgfRdhINnkvC0qWbvnPFVYg (NOT WORKING, FIXING)
(If someone have C# knowledge and want to give some help, i'm here <3)
How it works?
I tried to avoid EDLSign verification, using fake details and removing Exceptions
How to use?
Boot your phone in EDL Mode throw TEST POINTS
Connect your USB Cable to the phone
Login with your MI Account into the flasher
Select the correct rom (China = China, Global = Global) (China + Global = Brick) !!I Have removed the "Clean All and Lock" Option!!
Flash it
Let me know <3
Best regards
not working for me

Hello, i unbricked it by paying a guy that have an EDL Account
But now i want to bypass this authentification and stop these scammers earning money easily
I'm going to fix this script as soon as possible , now probably doesn't work and my MI 8 is not bricked so i can't test to make sure is 100% working
I search for someone that know better than me how "QsaharaServer" works and give me help developing this crack
While my mi8 is not bricked this is great of you. I really hope you can make it coz a lot of people had their phones damaged because of stupid ARB.

That's what and why im trying to do this project
But i need someone testers, Today i found a new exploit and im going to publish it asap
I own a mi 8 global to remove the account on miui 10 already in Edl mode, if you can serve I can give you access to the device via USB on the internet or through a teamviewer session if you need to create a working program.

I guess you're aware of Whyred affair, someone finally found the bypass. There's a thread with a guide, in miui forums I think. The trick is of course in the ROM used to flash in EDL. Maybe you can contact the thread author and receive some guidance about the changes he made in the ROM.
Edit: there are plenty of threads with the same solution I was writing about but this is the original thread where everything began:

I already saw this note 5 trick, but i dont understand where is the "bug/exploit" that he used to bypass authentification, probably in "this.needEDLAuth" factor
I am going to look inside the files and find the solution

My guess is that you bought a Chinese phone with global software?
If so, you are a victim of a corrupt vendor. I have read on Mi Forums the fastest solution to unbrick phones in this scenario is to contact the vendor and due to push back from Xiaomi management pressuring large distributors such as BangGood and TaoBao to do something about the scam , that many of these vendors are now willing to provide you with their Mi account and password which will allow you to unbrick for your device for no charge.
I am digressing a bit here. But I don't understand, how these 3rd party scammers are able to unlock devices that are not linked to their accounts. My Mi account has my Xiaomi phones and non -Xiaomi phones that I had previously used Miui Roms on.
Try contacting the vendor and report back here if that works, for you.
@ Damo1111
Don't fall for that scam, I tried unlocking my moms bootloader with my account and it didn't work because her phone is linked to her account.

I am here with mi locked mi8. I dont have access to mi account bound to this phone. Tried s-unlock, they logged in with their account, i used test point method to enter qualcomm mode, phone flashed ok, but mi lock remained there. It seems that i payed for nothing!
If i can help, contact me here.
I recently bricked my phone trying to flash global firmware, and I know those Authorized Mi accounts, but I don't wan't to spend 35$ for it. So basically I am looking for the Prog Emmc Firehose.mbn file for Mi 11 lite 5G
Same boat here - found several ones but not sure which one to use (if any!)
Hi, did you find the file. I'm basically in the same position
Hello, I also need that emmc for my 11 lite 5g. Did you solve it somehow and how?

Is it a file that contains the phone's bootloader? If yes, maybe you can extract it from the same or greater MIUI version inside the fastboot update package...
Same here. Need firehose file
Hey guys, serval months later I found something, not the file but a program called XPT (xiaomi pro tool). It worked but I paid 10$ (with tax). It is kind of a risk to flash dead phones, but I charged it before. It worked like a charm, flashed like in 8 minutes. You can find resalers on their telegram. Make sure that you find the cheapest seller that doesn't ask for USDT and can accept multiple payment methods. Those that only accept USDT don't speak much english so I wouldn't purchase from them. Cheers!

To be honest I don't remember/have them anymore
In the end I had to pay some people on Telegram to fix it
hello guys, well, I had my mi 11 in bootloop and bootloader locked. i contacted @Agent_Ziro on telegram. he did the unlocking process via EDL with authorization remotely. for me it worked perfectly. can try. say that @BRMNTz recommended it!
It cost $18.
