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..
Well I have tried to install MIUI ROM 6.5.26 after not processing updates for months (since november).
So I downloaded latest ROM and put it to the top of the partitions and then I wiped everything and that's where i might have done a mistake: I wiped internal storage (inside TWRP 2.8.7 i found there http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-...timizing-leo-miui-advanced-tweaks-to-t3286972) then I might have might done a second mistake: I have done the command fastboot 'flash boot boot.img' as I read on an old HTC forum.
Then I pushed the latest ROM to the phone (as it was not there after the wipes) and when I tried installing it, it gave E: unable to mount 'cache' .
Now it seems i cannot enter TWRP, only Fastboot or I am stuck with MI logo.
I just want to install latest ROM, as I have done Titanium Backup before all the mess.
I don't know where i should start.
I am on mac so cannot use Mi Flash

you wiped internal sd so you have nothing the only way to solve is
Download the fastboot ROM https://www.dropbox.com/s/dg198q49dctzfgr/leo_images_5.11.26_20151104.0000.4_5.1_cn.tar.gz?dl=0 (recomend this others from this year locked bootloader)
Extract it to the same directory you extracted ADB/Fastboot
Press "Windows key + X" -> "Command Prompt (administrator)
In command prompt, go to your folder where your ADB/Fastboot are, assuming they are in C:\Fastboot, you type
> cd C:\Fastboot
> C:
10. Once in the "C:\Fastboot" folder, you will need to issue a chain of commands to flash critical images, so type:
C:\Fastboot>fastboot devices
C:\Fastboot>fastboot flash tz tz.mbn
C:\Fastboot>fastboot flash dbi sdi.mbn
C:\Fastboot>fastboot flash sbl1 sbl1.mbn

Now you're all set and should be able to boot normally.
after you can install recovery

It broke halfway, so I am trying again. Thank you for your patience.
Well, I downloaded it entirely and tried "fastboot the tz", then I get -> "device is locked. Cannot flash images"...
So I guess I locked my bootloader already, somehow... :crying:

After the last command Your Note pro detected as a new device
Launch MiFlash and flash Note pro not locked ROM if you get one error at the midle (not at the beginnig) of flashing dont worry, you have unlocked bootloader, and you can folow the previous steps you already tried
The latest roms from xiaomi (since January 2016) lockes bootloader that is why i recomend that on the link.
Thanks

to work on mac
Download the fastboot ROM for your Mi phone and place it on your desktop. Double-click on it and Archive Utility will extract the file on the desktop, so you'll get a folder,
now go to terminal an type
cd C:\fastboot
fastboot devices
fastboot oem edl
In order to use the fastboot scripts, you should go to the folder. For that purpose, execute the following command (the folder name may be different in your case, the example below is for cancro):
cd ~/Desktop/cancro_global_images_V7.0.5.0.KXDMICI_20151016.0000.3_4.4_global
Copy the Code
Quick tip: you don't need to write the whole folder name, just type cd ~/Desktop/cancro, then press the Tab key and Terminal will append the folder name automatically.
Once inside, you need to make the scripts (all the files with .sh extension) executable. Execute the following command:
chmod +x ./*.sh
Now, the scripts are ready to use. In order to start the process, issue one of the following commands:
./flash_all.sh
or
./flash_all_except_storage.sh
or
./flash_all_except_data_storage.sh
When you start any of the scripts, you'll see the fastboot messages, flowing through the Terminal window. Once the script has done its work, the phone will restart itself automatically.
When I change directory for the fastboot ROM directory, the fastboot screen on my phone disappears. I have done the steps after that but i see no message on the terminal or the phone screen. My phone screen is black.
Edit: In fact the fastboot screen on my phone disappears when I type fastboot oem edl in my terminal although i get the message OKAY in my terminal.

so don't change the directory put the rom in the fastboot folder and do the next step
if you are not able to flash in your mac try in another pc (windows)

After use this topic(https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/how-to/rooted-moto-g5-run-morning-post-image-t3776012)
0) Put the Moto g5 on mains charge until you have finished flashing the sdcard so it's fully charged ready for the boot test!
1) Run Linux, preferably cinnamon or mate versions of Linux Mint
2) Insert the sdcard in pc or card reader and open "Disks" app
3) In "Disks" app select sdcard and you will see the sdcard partitions
4) Press "-" to delete the partition (delete all partitions if there is more than one)
5) (dont do it this part)Press "+" to create a new one and name it mmcblk0, set FAT(FAT32) file format and press "CREATE"
6) Press "Play" button to mount the sdcard, look to see what path the sdcard has (/dev/sd??) and then close the "Disks" app
7) (For us unbrick.img not mmcblk0.img)Go to Desktop, open "Computer" and navigate to the location where the img file is extracted (mmcblk0.img)
8) Open the window where img file is with root (right click on window and select "open as root")
9) In root window open the Terminal (right click on window and select "open terminal")
no need to type "su" in terminal, it has root already (see notes if using Linux live usb/dvd)
10) Type in terminal the command written below and don't forget to eliminate that "1" from the sdcard path,
that "1" can make the difference between the phone booting or not!!!!!

To unbrick your device you need to have mmcblk0 file.
Here is the procedure for extracting mmcblk0.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...eate-mmcblk0-img-device-t3803176/post76795590
Here is the procedure for unbrick the hard bricked device.
Requirements
Freshly formatted microSD card of at least 32gb (It needs to have at least 31.3gb free after formatting - if it displays as less you will need to buy a 64gb microSD card)
7zip
Linux mint live usb/dvd
USB card reader
Method
The BEST method to flash the sdcard with mmcbk0.img file is to use LINUX!
Windows user have no need to install Linux in pc, you can run Linux from a bootable usb-stick that is at least 8gb or a dvd
Do not run Linux as a virtual machine on Windows! Use the live USB/DVD
0) Put the Moto g5s plus on mains charge until you have finished flashing the sdcard so it's fully charged ready for the boot test!
1) Run Linux, preferably cinnamon or mate versions of Linux Mint
2) Insert the sdcard in pc or card reader and open "Disks" app
3) In "Disks" app select sdcard and you will see the sdcard partitions
4) Press "-" to delete the partition (delete all partitions if there is more than one)
5) Press "+" to create a new one and name it mmcblk0, set FAT(FAT32) file format and press "CREATE"
6) Press "Play" button to mount the sdcard, look to see what path the sdcard has (/dev/sd??) and then close the "Disks" app
7) Go to Desktop, open "Computer" and navigate to the location where the img file is extracted (mmcblk0.img)
8) Open the window where img file is with root (right click on window and select "open as root")
9) In root window open the Terminal (right click on window and select "open terminal")
no need to type "su" in terminal, it has root already (see notes if using Linux live usb/dvd)
10) Type in terminal the command written below and don't forget to eliminate that "1" from the sdcard path,
that "1" can make the difference between the phone booting or not!!!!!
Things to note
Linux Live dvd doesn't have open as root so just open in terminal and add sudo to the start of the commands
I've included this in the commands below
If you get a status error just remove status=progress from the terminal command below
Terminal comands
- if your sdcard is seen like " /dev/sdb1"
in terminal apply this command:
Code:
sudo dd bs=4M if=mmcblk0.img of=/dev/sdb status=progress oflag=sync
-if your sdcard is seen like " /dev/mmcblk0p1"
in terminal apply this command:
Code:
sudo dd bs=4M if=mmcblk0.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 status=progress oflag=sync
and the flashing process should start
When it finishes, test the sdcard in the phone and it should boot!
If you get a size error of the sdcard in terminal you have to change the sdcard and try again!
Thanks to @vaserbanix for the original version of this guide
Re-flash Stock Firmware
Once the phone is in bootloader mode you can flash stock firmware via fastboot
Note that in order to flash gpt the firmware MUST be the same or newer than the version currently on your phone
Once you have firmware that is the same or newer than your current version you can remove the sd card and run these commands (assuming you have fastboot all setup on your pc)
Code:
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin

10) Type in terminal the command written below and don't forget to eliminate that "1" from the sdcard path,
that "1" can make the difference between the phone booting or not!!!!!
Things to note
Linux Live dvd doesn't have open as root so just open in terminal and add sudo to the start of the commands
I've included this in the commands below
If you get a status error just remove status=progress from the terminal command below
Terminal comands
- if your sdcard is seen like " /dev/sdb1"
in terminal apply this command:
Code:
sudo dd bs=4M if=mmcblk0.img of=/dev/sdb status=progress oflag=sync
-if your sdcard is seen like " /dev/mmcblk0p1"
in terminal apply this command:
Code:
sudo dd bs=4M if=mmcblk0.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 status=progress oflag=sync
and the flashing process should start
When it finishes, test the sdcard in the phone and it should boot!
If you get a size error of the sdcard in terminal you have to change the sdcard and try again!

Re-flash Stock Firmware
Once the phone is in bootloader mode you can flash stock firmware via fastboot
Note that in order to flash gpt the firmware MUST be the same or newer than the version currently on your phone
Once you have firmware that is the same or newer than your current version you can remove the sd card and run these commands (assuming you have fastboot all setup on your pc)
Code:
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5 (only oreo firmware)
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6 (only oreo firmware)
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7 (only oreo firmware)
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.8 (only oreo firmware)
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

Hey Friend, I don't Have other moto G5S plus for extracting mmcblk0 file.

To unbrick your device you need to have mmcblk0 file.
Here is the procedure for extracting mmcblk0.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...eate-mmcblk0-img-device-t3803176/post76795590
Here is the procedure for unbrick the hard bricked device.
Requirements
Freshly formatted microSD card of at least 32gb (It needs to have at least 31.3gb free after formatting - if it displays as less you will need to buy a 64gb microSD card)
7zip
Linux mint live usb/dvd
USB card reader
Method
The BEST method to flash the sdcard with mmcbk0.img file is to use LINUX!
Windows user have no need to install Linux in pc, you can run Linux from a bootable usb-stick that is at least 8gb or a dvd
Do not run Linux as a virtual machine on Windows! Use the live USB/DVD
0) Put the Moto g5s plus on mains charge until you have finished flashing the sdcard so it's fully charged ready for the boot test!
1) Run Linux, preferably cinnamon or mate versions of Linux Mint
2) Insert the sdcard in pc or card reader and open "Disks" app
3) In "Disks" app select sdcard and you will see the sdcard partitions
4) Press "-" to delete the partition (delete all partitions if there is more than one)
5) Press "+" to create a new one and name it mmcblk0, set FAT(FAT32) file format and press "CREATE"
6) Press "Play" button to mount the sdcard, look to see what path the sdcard has (/dev/sd??) and then close the "Disks" app
7) Go to Desktop, open "Computer" and navigate to the location where the img file is extracted (mmcblk0.img)
8) Open the window where img file is with root (right click on window and select "open as root")
9) In root window open the Terminal (right click on window and select "open terminal")
no need to type "su" in terminal, it has root already (see notes if using Linux live usb/dvd)
10) Type in terminal the command written below and don't forget to eliminate that "1" from the sdcard path,
that "1" can make the difference between the phone booting or not!!!!!

You can try asking your xda friends, to extract the mmcblk0 file. Or someone with this device you know who can help.

Another method for unbricking EMUI 9 devices. For advanced users (not mentioning links to TWRP, to FullOTA factory images... there are other threads dedicated to that). Tested on Mate 20 Pro.
This method should help when:
1. Device has bootloader unlocked (unusable for locked bootloaders)
2. System fails to boot. HiSuite (HSTool) restore method does not work (fails in stage "Install recovery") nor does DLOAD method work (after VolUp+VolDn+Pwr action system continues booting or ends in 5% Installation and bootloops).
3. Fastboot mode is working
The reason might be wiped/corrupted eRecovery paritition.
Huge credits and thanks to @OldDroid for having educated me about eRecovery and about flashing it.
Steps:
1. Download FullOTA factory image
2. Extract UPDATE. APP file
3. Extract ERECOVERY_KERNE.img, ERECOVERY_RAMDI.img, ERECOVERY_VENDO.img, ERECOVERY_VBMET.img (guide:
OpenKirin - guide to extract partition images)
4. Boot into fastboot
5. Install and boot TWRP (
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp.img
)
6. Copy (e.g. via MTP, while connected to the computer) the 4 previously extracted images to internal storage or SD
7. Enter TWRP shell and execute:
Code:
ls -l /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/
8. Check partition names, in case of Mate 20 Pro they are:
Code:
erecovery_kernel /dev/block/sdd37
erecovery_ramdisk /dev/block/sdd38
erecovery_vbmeta /dev/block/sdd53
erecovery_vendor /dev/block/sdd39
9. Copy the extracted files into corresponding partitions:
Code:
dd if=./ERECOVERY_KERNE.img of=/dev/blck/sdd37
dd if=./ERECOVERY_RAMDI.img of=/dev/blck/sdd38
dd if=./ERECOVERY_VENDO.img of=/dev/blck/sdd39
dd if=./ERECOVERY_VBMET.img of=/dev/blck/sdd53
10. Reboot to fastboot and flash stock recovery via
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk stock_recovery.img
Now you should be good to go for DLOAD (recommended for soft-brick recovery) and HSTool methods.
Would this be for Error mode?
func no : 11 (recovery image)
error no : 2 (load failed!)
This error is what happens when I try Dload.

Depends on what is actually broken. If the error is caused by a broken eRecovery image, than this could help. I can't tell, the error codes displayed tell me nothing. One can also update eRecovery if it is extracted from a more recent firmware - e.g. EMUI 9.1.
