MI3 Completely bricked!!! - Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys i have bricked MY mi3 16gb.
I was using Bitti opticancro build with extended partitiion.
as i want to go to miui v6. i flashed stock partition zip
Then i flashed miui stock recovery and tried to flash the miui latest rom
i forgot to rename the rom zip to update .zip so i couldnt insatll the miui rom.
the i tried to flash using fast fastboot mode but it is showing error as remote size too large.
now i am stuck with miui recovery and fastboot error.
pls help me to get back my phone.

If you can enter fastboot mode, then you can flash miui rom manually.
First unzip miui fastboot rom, place adb and fastboot files into the folder you just extracted. (ex. located in cancro_global_images_V6.4.3.0.KXDMICB_4.4_global\images)
And then press shift while in this folder to open terminal, type these one by one.
Code:
fastboot devices
fastboot flash tz tz.mbn
fastboot flash dbi sdi.mbn
fastboot flash sbl1 sbl1.mbn
fastboot flash rpm rpm.mbn
fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn
fastboot erase boot
fastboot flash misc misc.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash modem1 NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash system1 system.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash boot1 boot.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img[B] (optional, need backup first, but I recommended to flash this if you want to use gapps)[/B]
fastboot reboot
You're done!
Android ADB Fastboot files is given if you don't have one.https://www.dropbox.com/s/ndud98a4ek3fvxg/Android_ADB_FASTBOOT.zip?dl=0

Or you can just fastboot flash TWRP recovery and then flash whatever you want from USB or something...

1)Install CWM recovery
2) Download restore-stock partition zip file from here http://www.htcmania.com/showpost.php?p=17750021&postcount=144
3) Flash it.
4) Now get in fastboot mode.
5) Get fasboot images from MIUI Forums
6) Flash it via MiFlash or use command line given by 2nd comment
7) Grab a coffee and you will be on miui in no time
8) use miui

Edit: http://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/5-5-8.27542/page-8#post-246332
There is modified flash_all.bat for Mi2, i beleive same works for cancro.
Code:
fastboot %* flash partition "%~dp0images\gpt_both0.bin" || @echo "Flash partition" && exit /B 1
Add this line after getvar and before flash lines in flash_all.bat and then MiFlash it like usually.

Flash cwm via fastboot, use "fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img" and don't use this title, its not completely bricked.

Never run stock recovery until u manage to flash a stockrom.. Better remember that.. Save twrp or cwm.. In my case, on last monday, on twrp, i've accidentally wipe internal storage.. Luckily got 6 type of rom in usb-otg..

The fastboot commands you are executing are lacking the image file and have the incorrect partition target.
Code:
fastboot flash ramdisk "boot-image-filename.img"
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk "recovery-image-filename.img"
fastboot flash system "system-image-filename.img"
fastboot flash vendor "vendor-image-filename.img"
@Curious8
If you will flash anything - it' a good idea you have FULL-Update from your Build on your PC !
Find FULL-Update with HuaweiFirmwareFinder and download.
Extract with HuaweiExtractor from Update.app (inside Update.zip) 3 img : ramdisk.img, recovery_ramdis.img, system.img
The Extractor do automatic 3 *.img.header. This 6 files copy to your ADB-Folder.
NOW you can flash any developer-rom. If this not work reset your phone to stock-rom with
- fastboot flash ramdisk ramdisk.img
- fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdis.img
- fastboot flash system system.img
this help for self-repair if
- bootloader unlocked
- FRP unlock
the commands you write is for Android older OREO ! With OREO we have new Partition-Names and new commands.

Solved no network issue in redmi y2 / redmi s2 / ysl

You have to flash following files , copy from fastboot rom if you already have it. Extract with 7z. Goto images folder , copy these files and paste in minimal adb and fastboot folder.
Reboot in twrp and wipe data , system , vendor , dalvic cache ,cache.
No need to clear internal storage.
You can clear with fastboot commands also
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase vendor
Commands :
fastboot flash config config.bin
fastboot flash misc misc.img
fastboot flash modemst1 dummy.img
fastboot flash modemst2 dummy.img
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash mdtp mdtp.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
Finally reboot in to twrp and flash xiaomi.eu Oreo rom.
It had fixed my xiaomi.eu Oreo rom's network issue . Before i flashed first dsp and modem only but did not fix netwrok in XIAOMI.EU Rom .
Now i am back to xiaomi.eu Oreo and everything is working fine.
If you dont have Fastboot rom then download this zip archive and extract files.

Message on telegram.
the zip file is corrupted.
Hi, it seems to me that the baseband firmware in redmi y2 is getting corrupted on most software upgrades. For me it caused VoLTE issue.
Please download the fastboot rom for redmi y2/s2. Extract the ROM and find the dummy.img file. Flash the dummy.img using the below commands.
fastboot flash modemst1 dummy.img
fastboot flash modemst2 dummy.img
i think this would solve most network issues in miui.
*The above commands does not erase your data, but don't be lazy to take a backup! *

Guide: howto update stock rom with unlocked bootloader, root, TWRP and keep user data

With unlocked bootloader, and with TWRP and magisk root installed, you currently can't install any of the motorola OTA:s.
Below have been tested on XT1965-3 while on RETEU, PPWS29.98-66 (security updates installed up until 1 january 2019), with TWRP 3.3.0 installed and rooted, to update to latest stock rom PPWS29.98-66-2 (security updates installed up until 1 april 2019), without wiping internal storage and /data (i.e. all files, apps and settings untouched).
I take no responsibility what so ever for using this guide. Below worked for me. Be prepared to lose all your files, hard brick your phone etc.
Get latest official stock firmware, I got it from https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79653779&postcount=6 , unzip it
Connect your phone to your computer with usb-cable. Put your phone in flash mode (power button+volume down), open your terminal application (below tested on macOS and linux), get root
sudo -s
navigate in terminal to folder where you unzipped the full stock rom
check the below commands visavi the files from your downloaded stock rom (below works for version mentioned above - future updates may contain more or fewer for example sparse files).

fastboot reboot​
Let your phone reboot and pray
After a hopefully successfull boot with everything still intact, then adb fastboot TWRP and from TWRP reinstall your root.
in flash mode once again

with XT1965-3_LAKE_RETEU_9.0_PPW29.98-111_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml at least for me dirty flash failed, rom didn't boot
did a backup of /data/ to external storage from TWRP with internal storage decrypted (had to boot TWRP from fastboot a couple of times before the decrypt password prompt were shown on boot of TWRP)
did also a backup of internal storage over MTP with TWRP to computer.
then flashed again with below commands, WHICH WILL ERASE INTERNAL STORAGE
fastboot getvar max-sparse-size
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

Thereafter successfull boot, reboot to flash mode, boot TWRP again, restore internal storage over MTP from TWRP, restore of data from backup to external storage which were made above
all apps and settings back, and on latest moto firmware.
any chance of capturing the delta OTA's to make them twrp-flashable?

Would probably be doable as in almost all other devices in general and older motorola devices in particular have had that. I for one do not have the knowledge of how to do that (and not the time available even if I had that knowledge =) )
I can confirm that at least for me, a dirty flash like the one described in post 1 in this thread worked again with the latest OTA/firmware for RETEU - XT1965-3_LAKE_RETEU_9.0_PPWS29.98-111-3_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC, when written over the second latest (XT1965-3_LAKE_RETEU_9.0_PPW29.98-111_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC)
I did however have trouble booting the latest twrp twrp-3.3.1-0-v5.1-lake-jlb from fastboot, phone rebooted after it was sent over adb boot instead of booting twrp it went straight back to fastboot. Tried many times with rebooting to phone home screen in between. But adb fastbooting the older twrp-3.3.0-lake worked straight away, and thereafter installing twrp-3.3.1-0-v5.1-lake-jlb with it's zip worked straight away.
I have tried to get the OTA file for my g7plus from a bugreport.
But it is only 100 Mb rather than the more than 1 Gb is see most roms.
Could it actually be an OTA update? Screenshot of the .zip contents attached.

It would be no problem to catch them and make them TWRP flashable. But it's strongly not recommended to do that!! Do an OTA-update only if your device is fully on stock! Otherwise the OTA-update will override incorrect blocks of your partitions and this could crash your entire system irreversible.

Fastboot Flash Stock Firmware Commands

For Linux, Mac, or Windows users with fastboot installed, those who have need of flashing an individual partition, those for whom Moto Flash Tool fails, those who'd rather use fastboot, etc...here are the fastboot commands translated from the cebu flashfile.xml. These can be used to recover a device when all else fails...usually. For cebu with unlocked bootloader only.
Lolinet firmware link: https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/cebu/
Boot to bootloader (hold power and volume down until bootloader screen), plug into computer, and navigate terminal to directory containing the extracted firmware files. Run the commands one at a time, in order, and watch for "Finished" before running the next:
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot flash bluetooth BTFM.bin
fastboot flash dsp dspso.bin
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash super super.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash super super.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash super super.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash super super.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash super super.img_sparsechunk.4
fastboot flash super super.img_sparsechunk.5
fastboot flash super super.img_sparsechunk.6
fastboot flash super super.img_sparsechunk.7
fastboot flash super super.img_sparsechunk.8
fastboot erase carrier
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase metadata
fastboot erase ddr
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot reboot
Now, didn't that feel good? Your phone sure liked it.
TIP: For Linux, commands can easily be made into a bash script and all run with one command.
1. Copy everything in #2, paste into a text file in the same directory as the extracted firmware, and save with a .sh extension (ie. flashfile.sh)
2.
#!/bin/bash
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot flash bluetooth BTFM.bin
fastboot flash dsp dspso.bin
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash super super.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash super super.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash super super.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash super super.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash super super.img_sparsechunk.4
fastboot flash super super.img_sparsechunk.5
fastboot flash super super.img_sparsechunk.6
fastboot flash super super.img_sparsechunk.7
fastboot flash super super.img_sparsechunk.8
fastboot erase carrier
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase metadata
fastboot erase ddr
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
3. Make file executable:
chmod +x flashfile.sh
4. Execute the script with:
./flashfile.sh
5. Reboot.
Please note these commands may be different from one version to another.
You should always refer to the flash_file.xml or service.xml

BTW @sd_shadow, my next device after the ocean was the Moto G Stylus (sofiap) and a script wouldn't work with it. I wrongly assumed scripts wouldn't work with devices that use a super partition. I hadn't even thought of trying a script on these more recent Powers with super partitions until you posted this. Sure enough, a script works, so thank you.
