My A2 is in a boot loop, as explained in another thread. Hoping to get it into EDL mode, I created a simple deep flash cable from the USB-C cable that came with my A1 (stolen in Beijing – really have bad luck with these Xiaomi devices):

Once the A2 was off, I inserted the deep flash cable, with the green and black wires connected, i.e. shorted. Immediately the phone went into the boot loop. After about eight seconds, I separated the wires, with the phone still in the boot loop.
Is it possible that the A2 simply cannot be put into EDL mode with a deep flash cable? Or am I missing something?
Elsewhere I read that the A1 likely does not support the deep flash method. It is plausible that for its successor it’s the same.
Anyhow, in the end I solved the issue by using the test point method.
Is this confirmed? I bought a deep flash cable, and it is not working
Deep flash cabel function only on old generation Xiaomi devices. I have tried it on Redmi note 4 and even Mi Mix but with no luck.
The test point method works without any issues but you need to open the phone.
For newer devices like Redmi note 5 or Mi 8 you also need to have authorized Mi account.

Hi everyone,
Seeking for idea(s) from a genius group.
I got a Nexus 6 with a broken screen ( really bad can't see anything , just black), want to get the data(photos) out of the phone.
the system debugging mode is not enabled, it's running on android 6.0.
here is what i have tried:
plug the phone into PC via USB, PC does not recognize any device, hold on power button and volume down for few seconds, the PC recognize the following: (fastboot shamu S)

/drive.google.com/file/d/0B3OMYlBbrdD2am92bUxWb0xuRkE/view?usp=sharing
not sure what can be done at this point.
also bought a used Nexus 6 in good working condition, swap screen did not work, the screen did not light up. ( some says the screen is locked to the motherboard, not sure about this).
googled some info, the last way would be remove the 32Gb NAND flash from the motherboard by un-soldering , and install to another motherboard, this may require some special tools and don't think it's a home DIY project.
Any shared idea(s) would be really appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi, in other phones you can use the fingerprint unlock, and automatic unlock when the phone is connected to a Bluetooth device like a hans free car kit.
It seems that is it posible in the lock screen menu, but when I try to configure the phone don't find any device.
Anyone can use it?

I couldn't get that to find any devices either, however I was able to add Google Smart Lock on Xiaomi EU Rom using Xposed module xMIUI - so this now works with my Zenwatch 2.
I wait my Mi Mix for the beginning of next week.
Now i use my HUAWEI Mate 7 with my XIAOMI MiBand 2 ... I can unlock my phone without fingerscan or code when my MiBand 2 is detected by the phone.
I wish the same use with my Mi Mix but i hope more power ... i wish that the phone unlock with MiBand 2 only at max 45 centimeter ... with the strong of signal, it's possible or not for you ?
My previous phone is a Mate 8, and the phone automatically unlock when detected a Bluetooth hans free. The mi mix seems that can do it too, but don't find any device.
I suppose that in future updated will be fixed

After unlocking and rooting I have full BT unlock enabled with three BT devices I use routinely.
I never was offered the option when I connected my BT headphones to the Mix prior to rooting.
It may be a feature that is deactivated by MIUI

how can i flash and unbrick it?
please help...
musicmate said:
As far as you described the circumstances, there is no Option to Unbrick it.
But Why?
Except from the Recovery Mode there is the Download Mode to Flash Software/Tools (e.g. Bootloader, Recovery, ROM):
-> One Option ist to access the I9300 via Download Mode and ADB/Odin, but without a working USB-Port... .
-> Another Option is to access via Wireless-ADB (Network-IP-based ADB), but to activate it, you'll have to get into the ROM's Settings (Developers-Options). Therefore you'll need an working ROM, which didn't seem so... .
-> Last possible Solution: Get in touch with Microelectronics and solder a new Micro USB Port to your Phone.
Otherwise you'll now have new opportunities to use your I9300 as:
Decorative Night Light/ Paperweight/ Doorstopper...
(Annotation: The Battery Charging Dock won't help, 'cause it's construed for standalone loading accumulators.)

Hello to all the Mi9 Scene!
I bought a cheap bricked Mi 9 yesterday and i need some help unbricking it. The previous owner told me that the phone got bricked (stuck on MIUI logo) after an update. I already tried Mi Flash, with no success because the bootloader is locked and it won't let me flash. I'm also unable to unlock the bootloader because it was not configured on Developer Settings before. I also tried XiaoMiToolV2 and MiFlash Pro recovery metohod with no success.
Can anyone help me trying to bring this device to life? Maybe using EDL metohod will work?
Thanks in advance
use miflash, flash an official rom and choose below in the page lock option
MiFlash doesn't work on locked bootloader. I sold the device today for the same price that i bought. Thanks anyways
Same problem here.
Mi9 blocked on Boot screen with miui logo, android and 3 points...
I guess firmware update crashed

The owner would like to not loose a call recording and photos... I can see the fast boot screen but didn't used it not sure it won't make more problem...
Do you think she can transfert data with fast boot odb?
She just connected the phone to the pc to transfer photos but of course the computer doesn't see the phone...
Can someone help? Is it possible to install firmware update again without loosing data?
Thanks for your future advices (and sorry for my English )
Hi to all, hope someone can help us. I'm not new on updating custom firmware on smartphone but is quite a time that I did not tinkered with some device, and never played with a XIAOMI (I suppose that every brand has his peculiarities).
My sister has a XIAOMI REDMI NOTE 11S (i suppose by the model number on the back cover 2201117SY), so I hope to be posting on the right area.
It is a stock smartphone, no modification, root or other. At one point it bricked by itself and it is stuck at the boot with the MI logo.

(my apologize for the bad photo made by my sister)
our priority is to recover the data from the phone (files, images, etc.)
Then we can send it to the support or we can try to recover it with the powerful tools I will find here on the forum.
But as told our priority is to recover the data.
There is some tool that we can connect to the phone and try to recover the data without risking to wipe it (if there is still data accessible on the phone)?
Thank you in advance.
EDIT: my sister, tinkering with volup+power can reach the Recovery menu
for sure wipe data will do exactly what we do not want.
I'm not sure if safe mode will boot into a usable state without wiping the data. Someone can confirm this?
We will not proceed until we will be sure of the correct procedure.
Thanks again.
