Brick my MI A2 - Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers

After much thinking, I decided to root my new phone, but things did not go well. I unlocked the bootloader and everything went well, but at the time of installing twrp everything went to hell. Now I try to install the official ROM via miFlash and via Fastboot but I always get errors.
In myFlash tool I get: error: FAILED (remote: GetVar Variable not Found)
{

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
In fastboot I get: sending system_a
FAILED
"Flash system_a error".
I have bootloop and I can not turn off the device. Can somebody help me?

Hi, I followed the steps but I can't flash system. I got the same error: "Flash system_a error" in "a" and in "b" FAILED (remote: GetVar Variable not Found)

Download this one: Android 8.1.0 [V9.6.9.0.ODIMIFE]
It will flash System_a or System_b without problems. then update via OTA.
I had the same issue with flashing rom. I think u need too much free ram. First close all apps include chrome then try it again. If again failed then try this version Android 8.1.0 [V9.6.9.0.ODIMIFE] it will flash

Yes something strange with the latest fastboot rom. I could flash it but tried a LOT.

use ./fastboot flashing unlock_critical

Boot the phone in edl mode (fastboot oem edl) from the fastboot mode and then flash the rom with MiFlash.

I tried, flash some images well, but in boot.img just shows flashing but doesn´t continue. I had waiting long time.

Replace the boot.img from Images folder with patched_boot.img from this forum and see if it works. If not, flash the entire ROM without boot.img by deleting that image and then flash it with fastboot flash boot_a boot.img and fastboot flash boot_b boot.img.

after 2 hours playing with that faulty phone I clearly decided not to open it and sent it back. I suspect there's hardware (RAM?) issues with some Mi A2 devices. as I wrote I wasn't even able to load a kernel. it did weird things and gave me strange fastboot feedback. atm I'll stick with tissot but I'm unsure about xiaomi's latest smartphones .

https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2/how-to/mi-a2-toolkit-unlock-bootloader-root-t3834585
download the 1.0.2 version, it has an unbrick option that takes care of most softbricks
YOU MUST RUN the unlock oem unlock, flashing, and unlock flashing_critical options (options 1 2 and 3) before trying the unbrick option. If the unbrick option does not work, try the revert to stock option.
For any others getting in a bootloop from TWRP, download the 1.0.1 version and run the Launch TWRP option it will overwrite the boot.img to a usable one. TWRP is really buggy right now so FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS.
And for those who have a bootloop because they tried to install xposed, run the revert to stock option. Unfortunately ATM there is no way to keep your data unless you put the https://magiskroot.net/uninstall-magisk-module-twrp/ zip on your device.

Hi guys, finally whith EDL mode, after hours and hours flashed well!
fastboot oem edl
or
fastboot-edl-v2
I have reviewed each .img file and I also found that apparently the system.img file was not decompressed correctly. Then I went to the always reliable Total commander and was decompressed fine.
Thank you all!

people try:
1- Another usb port
2- Another usb cable
3- Another PC

Formatted Phone w/ No Nandroid

Last night, my phone was running slow so I rebooted my phone. My phone started bootlooping (stayed in the bootloader warning screen).
Here's where it gets weird: I went into TWRP and tried a bunch of different solutions. I tried to create a nandroid and a bunch of error messages popped up like "E: unable to /mount". I tried factory reset and same error messages.
I was worried the bootloop would occur again so I pressed format data and without thinking, formatted my entire card.
Now I have a phone with no system, no backup, but still in the TWRP screen. Without doing more damage, where do I go from here?
Moto X 2014 Pure Edition with bootloader unlocked.
Looks like you're going to have to flash the factory images and start fresh.
Sent from my XT1095 using Tapatalk
Thanks for the quick reply. Can you guide me towards doing that?
You could go the factory image route (just google Motorola Factory Images and it'll be the first result. You need a motorola account to access them).
You can also boot into TWRP and transfer a ROM over via ADB if you want to stick with the custom ROMs. Just boot into TWRP and connect to your computer, then adb push the ROM file.
This is the error message I get when I tried to push a zip to my /sdcard directory:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
It says it's a "Read-only file system".
You would unzip that file to get to the sparsechunks and then you would:
mfastboot.exe flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot.exe flash boot boot.img
mfastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
mfastboot.exe flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot.exe erase modemst1
mfastboot.exe erase modemst2
mfastboot.exe flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot.exe erase cache
mfastboot.exe erase userdata

I extracted the zip file into the same folder. I copied your first line of command and this has been my screen for the past 15 minutes:
Should it take that long? As a note, all the files you mentioned are there.

Are you trying to flash those in recovery? You need to be in fastboot (bootloader) mode.

The rabbit hole goes deeper. I'm in bootloader mode, copy and paste the first line of command, and here's the new error:
Is your bootloader unlocked?
Did you reboot into bootloader from twrp? If so, power off there phone and not into fastboot that way. Then try it.

Yes, unlocked bootloader. Motorola Device Manager tells me my phone's current version is "22.21.11.victara_tmo.tmo.en.us" and I was running Lollipop 5.0 before it went beserk yesterday.
I downloaded the image file from http://www.graffixnyc.com/motox.php under the title "Lollipop 5.0 22.21.11 FULL IMAGE PACKAGE Zip."
I honestly don't know what is wrong!!

Do you have fastboot installed? If so, try using it instead of mfastboot. I had a problem like that once but I really don't know what fixed it. That's about the only other suggestion I have.

New development:
I flashed "TMO_XT1095_5.0_LXE22.46-11_cid9_CFC.xml.zip" using the commands given with success!
Figuring that this is it, I pressed "normal startup" and my phone is once again stuck in the "Warning Bootloader unlocked" screen. Has not gone to the Moto world animation screen yet.
Because u hav wiped ur entire os widout nandroid backup..u will hav to flash a rom(stock or custom..ur choice) again..Ensure u hav an unlocked bootloader..Download a rom frm the internet that suits ur device and place it on the root of sd card..then boot into twrp..wipe data and cache..click install and find ur image and click it..the rom will get flashed to ur device..

By attempting to flash that stock image above, I lost TWRP and now on stock recovery. I can only access bootloader now. Which file should I try to flash via fastboot? That seems to be my only solution.

Why did you download it from there rather than from Motorola's official site? I wouldn't feel confident that the images are actually legitimate. Download them from motorola:
https://motorola-global-portal.cust...e/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a/action/auth
From that link click Get recovery images here and download them from the official source.

Android OS gone, unable to mount any partition, etc. Need help.

So I don't know what to do at this point. I will try to provide as much info as I can for you guys to help me out. I bought the Verizon 2014 Moto X variant off Swappa new. The phone was new, but old. It was manufactured in 2014 and upon first boot, it still had KitKat installed. I OTA'd all the updates before unlocking the bootloader from Motorola's website. After unlocking the bootloader, I tried flash TWRP recovery via fastboot. It didn't work - I got a pink message line on the output that I don't remember what it said. I read that there were some issues installing recovery for VZW (?) so using flashify was my other option. So I then rooted the phone and used flashify to install TWRP. It worked. After that, I flashed a 2014 MM Pure Edition rom. It booted fine, but no signal. Yes, I forgot that it doesn't support CDMA, so I then went tried to flash CM13. Today, I started experiencing battery drain on radio and wifi so I tried to flash the official firmware of 5.1 VZW Victara variant. Fastboot and drivers are running fine and fastboot recognizes the phone. So I flashed everything, booted up, and...nothing. Every time I tried to reflash the firmware, I boot to a blinking No Command dead andy screen. Guess recovery wasn't installed? It just kept bootlooping. Out of desperation, I went to see if TWRP worked - it did. Now I ADB pushed the CM13 rom files on my phone to flash. Unfortunately, every time I try to flash anything, every partition is unable to be mounted. I can't factory reset, flash, nothing. Every time I try to wipe, one of the errors is, 'Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid Argument)'. Now at this point, this is where I'm stuck. I still have the bootloader/fastboot, a recovery, but no OS and I can't flash anything. Fastbooting the firmwares won't go through to boot. Can anyone help me on this? I will provide answers to any questions you have. Thanks.
EDIT: I tried to turn off the phone to prevent the phone from dying but I can't even do that. Tried to turn it off via TWRP but it just reboots to TWRP. I have to keep it plugged in. Sigh.

So you have the full stock firmware 5.1 for Verizon XT1096, like the one here:
https://mega.nz/#F!ow8igZRL!Z7vmN8GOpez2bVMYDvEKkg
Can you try:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
TWRP 3.0 seems to be causing problems, maybe corrupting partitions, stick to 2.8.7.1 or earlier.
http://www.invisiblek.org/
Maybe we can try RSD Lite...

I did not get the file from there, but instead got it from AFH. As for the 2 fastboot commands, what should I do with them? They flashed fine when I was putting them in fastboot earlier. As for TWRP, I will flash to 2.8.7.1.
As for RSD Lite, I am running Windows 10 and several versions I have tried will not recognize the phone at all. I'm 95% sure the drivers are in OK status and I am using the OEM cable.

I'm still stuck. I'm going to flash the 2.x.x TWRP version again. But that's all I'll be able to get right now. Still not able to get an OS installed.

Any errors on the phone during fastbooting firmware files, like "downgrading" etc.
I hope TWRP 2.x will allow you to flash CM.
UPDATE: So I made a little progress. There was a problem mounting and this thread helped with that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2683787
Now I can wipe data, factory reset, flash, etc. in TWRP v2.8.7.1. But when I flash a rom, I reboot system and it boots back to recovery. WTF. Ugh.
EDIT 2: Sad news. Based off this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/general/warning-downgrade-bootloader-partition-t3105147, looks like I FUBAR'd the phone. Unfortunate that this phone isn't like a Nexus.
its the phone will reboot back to TWRP event you restore backup file on TWRP ?
did you try flash custom rom from TWRP?

EDIT 2: Sad news. Based off this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/general/warning-downgrade-bootloader-partition-t3105147, looks like I FUBAR'd the phone. Unfortunate that this phone isn't like a Nexus.

its the phone will reboot back to TWRP event you restore backup file on TWRP ?
did you try flash custom rom from TWRP?

Did u wiped off the system and data partition before doing that???
Sometimes a complete format would be great enough to ensure '0' errors

You'll only receive OTA updates if you've flashed with the correct firmware for your software channel. Whilst you can flash and lock with other region's firmwares, your device may not be recognised by the Motorola servers for OTA updates, which means you may have to manually update.
Doesn't work
bootloader: slot count not found
slot suffixes not found error
still required signed boot.img

Android O (All variants)

Hey guys, for those of you who have bricked your phone by upgrading to Oreo then tried downgrading to nougat, I may have a fix for you. Also news that Android O can be installed on Sprint (and possibly locked bootloader variants too). I'm going to sleep now, I'll post a couple tutorials tomorrow when I get home from work but I wanted to give you guys a little sneak peak of what I've discovered.

}
Edit: also, this is running buttery smooth for me. Which leads to believe those of you having performance issues with O it's probably due to some carrier apps/features, which would be in the OEM partition. Side note, this is a retail rom, which means no carrier bloat/features. This is as if you were to buy it unlocked straight from Motorola. This also means I have no VoWiFi on Sprint. If anyone could find a way to implement this in O that would be awesome.

Oh thanks, I will try to flash a twrp to backup.
donjuro Please come back to as if you will find moment. We are still waiting.
Hey guys, sorry I've been gone for so long. Life really kicks your ass sometimes
Anyways, it looks like just about every carrier is on 8.0 now except Sprint, but if you're on another carrier yet you still haven't been upgraded you could try this too.
So basically all you have to do is download NASH_RETAIL_8.0.0_OPX27.109-34_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip from one of these two mirrors.
https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto Z2 Force/Stock/
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/nash/official/
Unpackage the zip file, and inside the folder create a flashall.bat, here is what you will put in the bat file
Code:
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
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash bluetooth BTFM.bin
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.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
fastboot flash system_b system_b.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system_b system_b.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase ddr
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot reboot
Save it, put your phone in fastboot mode, run it, and that should be it. You might want to make a backup of any valuable files first though as this WILL erase everything and will start you from scratch!
For those of you wanting to keep your carrier specific features, you can use your carrier specific files from any of these mirrors, but for stability purposes I highly recommend using the RETAIL version.

If it is just restarting into TWRP over and over, you might just need to switch to a different slot. It is there in the reboot area of TWRP.

Well, you're kind of in for a bad time now... The "official" tmobile oreo zip that's out there flashes fine but then you end up with no baseband.
@MootNewt made a zip here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/z2-force/help/t-mobile-oreo-flashall-t3755086/post75810018
that will flash to the latest tmobile oreo (with feb update) but you'll end up not passing safetynet, even with Magisk.
You will have root via Magisk, though, so there's that.
This is where I am right now. :/

Also if it helps here is a T-Mobile flash all to the latest firmware. https://drive.google.com/file/d/153BdClEOK3ZzpgiM37Ti4Y8lkyXPcz0S/view?usp=sharing
Just run the flash all bat file while your phone is in bootloader mode. This will wipe everything, just a fair warning. I am using this now. No problems with safety net here.

Bricked phone flashing twrp 3.3 on p20 pro. Don't know what to do.

Hi,
I have bricked my phone (CLT-L29 9.0.0.270(C432) by trying to flash twrp 3.3 using the app from the app store. I had downloaded the
twrp-3.3.0-1-charlotte.img and installed it using the app. When I rebooted the phone i got a white screen, saying 'please update system again', func no:11 (recovery image), error no: 2 (load failed!).
I have since tried the following:
I have extracted the recovery ramdisk from the update (9.270) file and flashed that using fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk RECOVERY RAMDIS.img. This hasn't worked, ive also flashed twrp versions. Ive reflashed the system.img.
Erecovery works but gets an error when looking to download the latest version, and factory reset wont work because it returns the original error at boot. It is still oem unlocked. I have the update 9.270 and can extract whatever files are necessary to flash using fastboot, but don't know which ones or where to flash.
I've just spent 5 hours on xda and google trying to fix things but im getting nowhere. I would really appreciate any help or advice on where to go from here. I'll provide any info needed.
sincerely
In Trouble.

Did you try to recover your phone using HiSuite? Boot into fastboot mode and then repair phone via HiSuite. This will flash you back to latest official firmware for your model. Please be aware you will lose your data.

Some guy there suggested 'flashing every partition from the update.app and seeing if anything changes. Some will flash and others will fail but it’s a good first step'. I don't know what that means exactly, is that everything in the update.app? He hasn't replied yet....

I had this problem on my EML-L29, tjis helped me:

fastboot flash kernel kernel.img
fastboot flash ramdisk ramdisk.img
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdis.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot reboot
Yeah, similar to what I had to do. Factory reset wasn't possible for me, but flashing partitions worked.

I also managed to brick my phone flashing twrp.
except I can't access adb or fastboot now.

You can always go into fastboot mode in emergency mode.
Just connect the phone to PC via USB cable and then press power key + Volume Down.
It will bring you into Fastboot Emergency.
Then you can play with fastboot commands.
I recommend you to extract RECOVERY_RAMDIS.img from UPDATE.APP (you can get it from update.zip file for your firmware) into a folder that keeps your fastboot exe file. Then do following command on your PC:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk RECOVERY_RAMDIS.img
It will give you stock recovery.
Then you can do command:
fastboot reboot
Immediately after this command disconnect USB cable and press Volume Up key.
On recovery you can do wiping your data partition and don't he factory reset.
If it not help and you are still on boot loop you can go again into fastboot emergency mode and do fastboot command:
fastboot -w
This will reformat your data partition and after this your phone will boot into erecovery to do factory reset again. It should help you to bring your phone into live.

Bootloader must be unlocked. Only then you can flash recovery.
But be careful and do not try to flash Oreo rom over the Pie because you can definitely brick your phone (even if you read somewhere that it's possible).

Try thoes command in fastboot:
HTML:
fastboot getvar rescue_phoneinfo
fastboot oem get-product-model
fastboot oem get-psid
fastboot getvar vendorcountry
fastboot oem get-build-number
if it returns something weird, then you are fvcked up.
mine messed up once, I had to get to Service Center to replace the motherboard.
Maybe, now there is some 3rd party way can save you phone, I don't know.
