reset your phone once then try........also try to unlock your boot loader & see if you can flash the stock rom from the official website......make sure that the entire rom file is in a folder on your desktop.......for some reason MI flash does not like long system paths.....

Hi there.
I have the same problem. Can't do anything with my phone on any USB 3.0/3.1-Port on my Ryzen desktop (works neither on Win10 nor Linux Mint). I have to use my old Win8.1 Intel laptop and there everything works flawlessly but only on the USB 2.0 port. I used the same tools/commands/Mi-drivers but it only works on the laptop. Tried different drivers for MB/USB-host controller and different cables but to no avail... Connecting the phone and mtp works but no adb/fastboot.
I read on different threads that other people have the same problem with other hardware setups but most of them were able to fix it with MB drivers from the manufacturer instead of the Windows ones. Maybe that could work for you.
For now I keep the laptop around for flashing my A2....
whenever you get "press any key to shutdown" on fastboot it's because of the usb port, use usb 2.0
I have the same problem , and change to 2.0 USB Ports works! Thanks!
Did you found a solution?
Please help. Facing exact same issue. Tried all USB ports on my PC. Switched between Ubuntu and Win10. All to no avail.
It's a USB 3 problem. I had it too in my laptop. You gotta find a USB 2 port, maybe in another PC. Good luck.
Sent from my Mi A2 using XDA Labs
i was also fasing same problem so what is did is
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
then
fastboot oem edl
and flashed stock
Mi A2 Boot loop
The first thing you'll want to do here is extract the factory images archive that you downloaded from your manufacturer's website. For that part, I'd recommend using 7-Zip, as it's free and works with most archive formats , move all of the contents of the archive to the platform-tools folder inside of your ADB installation directory, then open an ADB Shell window in this folder.
Flash the system images individually. This method takes some extra work, but it can be used to un-root, update, or un-brick your device without losing existing data.
Start by extracting any additional archives from the factory images package. Sometimes, factory images packages can contain a series of three or four nested archives, so make sure to unzip all of them. From there, copy all of the image files to the main platform-tools folder—in other words, don't leave them in any sub-folders.
there are two images that you can get rid of: cache.img and userdata.img. These are the images that will overwrite your data and cache with blank space, so if you don't flash them, your existing data will remain intact.
Of the remaining images, six make up the core elements of Android: boot, bootloader, radio, recovery, system, and vendor.
The boot image contains the kernel, so if you just want to get rid of a custom kernel that's causing issues with your device, you only have to flash this one. To do that, type the following command into the ADB shell window:
//
fastboot flash boot <boot image file name>.img
//
Next is the bootloader image—this is the the interface that you're using to flash images with Fastboot commands. So to update your bootloader, type:
fastboot flash bootloader <bootloader image file name>.img
//
Once you've done that, you should reload the bootloader so that you can continue flashing images on the newer version. To do that, type:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
//
After that, we have the radio image. This one controls connectivity on your device, so if you're having problems with Wi-Fi or mobile data, or if you just want to update your radio, type:
fastboot flash radio <radio image file name>.img
//
Then there's recovery. This is something you may or may not want to flash, depending on the modifications you've made. For example, if you've installed TWRP custom recovery, flashing this image will overwrite your modification and replace it with the stock recovery interface. So if you're just updating your modded device, you should skip this one. Otherwise, if you plan to keep your phone stock and want the newer version of stock recovery, type:
fastboot flash recovery <recovery file name>.img
//
Next up is the big one: The system image. This one contains all of the files that make up the actual Android OS. As such, it's the most essential part of any update.
However you may not be updating your phone. You may just be re-flashing the stock firmware to recover from a soft brick. If this is the case, the system image is often the only image you need to flash in order to fix everything, because it contains the entirety of Android. In other words, if you flash this image and nothing else, it will undo any changes you made with root access and put everything back the way it was.
So as a cure-all in most soft brick situations, or as a method for getting the core part of an Android update, type:
fastboot flash system <system file name>.img
//
Finally, there's the vendor image. This is only present on newer phones, so don't worry if it's not in your factory images package. But if it's there, it contains a few important files, so type the following line to get this partition updated:
fastboot flash vendor <vendor file name>.img
//
After you've sent any or all of the above commands, you'll be ready to restart your device and boot into Android. To do that, type:
fastboot reboot

Thanks to Android gadget hacks .
P.S : Including today , it was 22nd time that i rooted , enabled camera2api .. but i think till know its useless .
After dealing with this issue for a long time I found that using a USB hub solved it for me.
This is the one I'm using: https://es.aliexpress.com/item/USB-...342.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.1d6e63c04tJJe6
Hope this helped!

have tried all USB port, unfortunately, no success
Hi everyone,
Today I have a big problem
I install jasmine__V10.0.8.0.PDIMIXM and after I set "fastboot oem lock" but Now my MI A2 Can't enter in OS.
I have this message on screen
"Your device has loaded a different operation system"
and another page says
"Your device software can'tbe checked for corruption. Plese lock the bootlader.
But when I check in fastboot I have bootloader locked.
Any suggestion to unlock ? I can't enter in OS.
Thanks

Same error.
Download TWRP and TWRP installer
DONT CONNECT YOUR PHONE!!
Put your phone in Fastboot
in cmd type
fastboot boot twrp.img (twrp name instead of twrp.img)
Then when you see <Waiting for Device> connect your phone !
Check if it's working.
This was fix for me, when I was unable to even boot into recovery.
Once you boot into recovery, wipe everything, flash twrp zip, and error should be gone
Hey guys,
same issue here but i don't have any usb2.0 port on my laptop now. Any workaround? Totally sure that i used fastboot + usb3.0 on Sony, LG, Samsung ROMs with no hassles whatsoever. Is this only happening with Xiaomi?
Cheers

Hey guys, I need some help here
I accidentally formatted the sdcard when preparing a clean flash. I also formatted system ect. so now all I can do is boot into recovery but no files to flash.
Is there some way I can transfer files to the sdcard og another way to get the device working again?
Thanks in advance.
You are softbricked. Restore factory image using wugfresh
http://www.wugfresh.com/nrt/
Download the factory images, boot into bootloader (not recovery) by holding power+down, then flash the factory images.
I'm in exactly the same boat here, but every time I try to use fastboot commands, I get a write failed. I'm fairly certain the drivers are installed properly, as fastboot devices shows me the device. What else could be done?

Give the exact steps and exact messages, cut and paste is best, otherwise there is not enough info to go on.
I installed the drivers using Nexus Root Toolkit 1.5.5. (I used option #2, which is to install the signed drivers.)
I copied the extracted contents of the Nexus 7 4.2 factory image into my adb folder. I ran a command prompt in that folder.
I type: fastboot devices
I get: 015d25687443fe0f fastboot
I type: fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-grouper-4.13.img
I get: FAILED (command write failed (Unknown error))
I type: fastboot -w update image-nakasi-jop40c.zip
I get: FAILED (command write failed (Unknown error))
Well, I don't know how or why, but I just tried the same thing again using the Nexus Toolkit and it worked this time. I'm booting into a stock ROM right now.
Im unable to turn on USB debugging, cause i have no ROM. What to do?

Out of interest why didn't you just run the small script that comes with the factory image to wipe and reflash everything.
It's what I did to make sure I had a nice clean install.
Or were you trying to keep some data from /data for example.
Hello everybody, for serveral months i saw several people asking help to back to stock ROM
here we finally have a guide that saved me and can save you!
Requirements:
Windows operative system
Multi Tool
OFFICIAL stock rom (in this guide i'll use B370 for H60-L04) Download
and the most important thing Huawei Update Extractor! Download
and let's go!
First of all open HUE (Huawei Update Extractor) and after selected UPDATE.APP file, extract system.img , boot.img , cust.img, recovery.img that we will flash on the phone, and put them in the folder where adb and fastboot are installed (in this case we use the multi tool directory).
now open cmd or command prompt and move on multi tool directory (cd C:\\Users\NAME bla bla bla\DIRECTORY TO MULTI TOOL)
now plug in your phone and enable Debug USB and type:
Code:
adb.exe devices (to control if your device is online, if not grant the permission on the phone)
adb.exe reboot bootloader
Now we flash all the files with fastboot
the order of commands doesn't matter
(MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE SYSTEM, BOOT, RECOVERY AND CUST .img ON THE MAIN FOLDER!)
Code:
fastboot.exe flash boot BOOT.img
fastboot.exe flash recovery RECOVERY.img
fastboot.exe flash cust CUST.img
fastboot.exe flash system SYSTEM.img
than reboot into recovery by doing
fastboot.exe reboot and holding only VOLUME UP button
than do all the wipe (cache and data) than reboot system
Easy right? :laugh:

my phone keep restarting, i have try this method, no works, helpppppppp
it stuck on honor logo
Hi Guys,
i got the same problem here with my H60-L12
After flashing Beta Lollipop 5.1.1 i tried to go back to 4.4.4.
Now it's stuck in bootloop and now it keeps flashing the honor logo.
Tried to unbrick it with Multi-Tool and different stock roms but i cant get into recovery or the 3 button install method, only thing working is fastboot mode.
Any suggestions?
Thank you!!
ok, now i'm desperate.
Got different Stock Roms (4.4 5.8.1;4.4 B119;4.4 B310; 4.4 B316, tried TWRP in different versions, even tried to reinstall fastboot drivers , same problem on Windows 10 and 7.
Only think working is Fastboot&Rescue Mode (White Screen, Phone UNLOCKED), but only when plugged in on PC with USB cable.
When plugged in charger, it just reboots and reboots i can't switch to Recovery or Fastboot mode and doesn't even charge the phone.
Maybe someone got any idea, did i use wrong stock roms? Do i have to use Rollback/Revert versions?
Any way to back to stock rom without unlock bootloader?
I've made a horrible mistake.
I was on 5.9.16, tried to downgrade by flashing system, recovery, cust and crc.
Unfortunately I've done it with B316, which is 4.4.4, so i got this annoying bootloop, in which i can't access recovery, bootloader or use the 3 buttons method.
It seems as if the phone tries to forcefully boot into system ignoring everything I do.
I tried draining the battery to turn it off, which worked, but when i charged it it tried to system boot as soon as there's enough battery.
Any ideas?
and where can I find update.app?
This worked for me! I switched from CM11 to the stable 5.1.1 release using your guide. Flashed B370 and then did a local update for the stable lollipop rom. Thanks a ton.
i need help

1. Connect your phone to pc in fastboot mode,
your Pc will install some drivers automatically.
2. Go to Minimal ADB and Fastboot directory .
3. Hold shift and right click.
4. Click open command window here.
5. Enter fastboot devices command.
If you see your device name in list of devices attached in command window then your good to go.

It fails at the first step. Can't flash the partition table, it always says "FAILED (remote: failed to write partition)"
I've tried several different ROM packs, even tried one for a different Redmi 2 version, and still can't do it.
did you place all the files in minimal adb and fastboot folder?

did you place all the files in minimal adb and fastboot folder? And what you mean by using several different rom package? This method is only for fastboot rom made for redmi 2 only. Make sure your phone is detected by PC in fastboot mode with command fastboot devices.
I have tested this method three times without any errors. You are surely doing something wrong.

My phone stucks on Mi logo what will do
yeah!!!!!!!!!!!! after trying many other methods like recovery through adb ,command prompt,mi flash tool,mi pc suit...... i downloaded atleast 4-5 roms to just confirm that whether flash tool has some problem or the ROMs..........but if something worked after constantly trying many things in past three days it is this method.......seriously...
FYI this is the way i used it and u should probably use the same way
-> download MI flash tool (google it)
->install(in C
->download any compatible ROM for ur phone
->open :- C:\Program Files\Xiaomi\MiPhone\Google\Android
->paste all the contents of image folder from the ROM into this android folder
->then download this Flash All.bat from here and extract it...
->put your phone in fastboot mode ->connect it via usb
->then double click your Flash all.bat file-> give it some time->once finished ur device will start automatically
->after 10 mins or so disconnect ur phone from pc ... give it 4-5 mins , ur phone will be out of bootloop and u will be awarded with a new MIUI
Yes! It worked for me as well.
Thanks for your steps.

and it worked good.
My Mi Account was locked and could not connect to internet at all.
I had tried using Flash tools, PC suite - Flash methods and nothing worked. I had spend more time to fix my mobile in all these ways.
But this method is awesome. Only took around 15 minutes to completely flash my mobile.
After flashing the mobile, I am able to connect to internet and I have also created a new Mi-Account and linked my G-Mail account to it.
Am super happy now.
Thanks a lot.
However I would wish to add another details to the above setps:
The Flashall.BAT too needs to be extracted and copied into the same folder where the contents from ROM's Image folder were copied.
awesome bro thankyou very much.it's working absolutely well:good::good:
Tried a similar method and got my redmi2 prime hard bricked. Can someone tell me the test points in the device 2014818?
Thanx This works for me. successfull to flash my redme 2

Will this work for Redmi note 3 Snapdragon??
Hello
I am stick in bootloop with my Redmi 3 (after trying Flashify).
Tried the above method with high hopes, as I have been trying everything else also with no luck.
I have downloaded a ROM for my device of course.
It all seems to go well until I launch the Flash_All.bat
Then the DOS commands are executed in 5 to 10 secs, and my devices reboot, but in a bootloop again
I got a breif view at the DOS commands, and it basically, at several lines says somthing, like: "failed to write, device is locked"
see attached sreen shot
does this mean my problem has no solution and I can simply throw away my device?
Thanks

Hello guys, ive been generally lucky in the sense that i have had no issues...until now.
I have tried installing the most recent updates (7.0, and now 7.1.1) and i continue to get this error through cmd. It does not seem to want to flash anything, and i have gotten it to flash, root, and twrp, but it still acted funky. Today, trying to remedy the situation, i attempted to flash the new 7.1.1 update, and return to stock (to later return to power user) but it is still doing it.
It says Bootloader: has-slot (not found), and a couple other things. When i try to flash individual pieces, it does not retain it. when i try to flash the flashall.bat, it flashes but does not flash everything, it will say the stuff has transferred 0 and skips it as it looks like. I cannot get my bootloader off the october one, and i have looked everywhere i can to try to fix this.. please help, its driving me mad. I will be happy to provide any information needed.
Thanks Community! You rock!
Have you tried a different USB cable? A different computer? How about a different USB AND a different computer? I think this would be a good place to start.
Can i ask you why this would matter? My usb seems to work fine, and my computer had no issues before this... i can still perform different actions, and my phone is showing up as ADB and Fastboot.
If it's not pc or usb cable related you can try to flash latest factory image step by step via fastboot without your simcard
Well, you might want to post the complete output of your flashing attempt, but if the bootloader slot isn't found, that's usually a sign of a hardware problem. Hopefully I'm wrong, but until we see more from you, I simply don't have an answer for you.
Ive tried to fastboot everything individually, and it refuses to take. I tried the flashall, same thing. I used NRT and it partially worked, but has sorta the same error. I will be flashing again and providing screenshots right now. I was able to get into a rom, root, twrp but i still cannot update all of those core things (bootloader, radio, and such) Thank you guys for the help. Much needed.
Here is the attempt to just flash the bootloader, i have tried from a different location but this is directly in Platform-Tools of the SDK. As you can also see, it does register under fastboot...
Try to flash radio and bootloader via twrp

Did you try without simcard?

I just tried what you suggest, and im not sure if it worked. It said everything wrote (on twrp) but it was very quickly done. I feel it did the same thing as CMD did.
You could try using the correct Fastboot command...
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
The command is fastboot flash <partition> <image>
Your screenshot says only "fastboot flash image" but doesn't state the partition you're trying to load, hence "unknown partition".
And since we're on the subject, perhaps a repetition of the procedure I used to use before the full OTA days might be useful to you and other people.
Preparation.
- Take a TWRP backup and save it on your PC.
- Download factory image (https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#shamu) and unzip all files, including the zip within the zip. Rename the *.img files to the names below. Copy all of them to the same folder as your ADB/fastboot executables.
- Download the relevant TWRP and rename to twrp.img - also put in ADB/fastboot folder.
- Copy SuperSU to device (if root wanted).
- Set USB debugging in Developer options & attach to your PC.
- Open a CMD window, navigate to your ADB folder, and check connectivity with "adb devices". If it's ok, copy & paste each command below into the CMD window and run them - the only lengthy one is the system.img.
1. adb reboot bootloader
2. fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
3. fastboot reboot-bootloader
4. fastboot flash radio radio.img
5. fastboot reboot-bootloader
6. fastboot erase system
7. fastboot flash system system.img
8. fastboot erase boot
9. fastboot flash boot boot.img
10. fastboot erase cache
11. fastboot flash cache cache.img
12. fastboot reboot-bootloader
13. fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
14. From bootloader boot to TWRP and reflash superSu

hahahaha well that could surely be the issue :silly:, but the one thing im wondering is why it wouldnt work through NRT, and i also "successfully" sideloaded the ota... Gonna try this now and hopefully it works! I shall report back when finished

Unfortunately, it did not work. Now google app keeps crashing. Phone is extremely buggy.

Can you give a bit more detail? So the phone is crashing, but is it now on the version that you wanted to have (7.0, 7.1.1)? There is rarely such a thing as "too much information".

Ok, so what happens is that it says i am on 7.1.1 with i guess the related info, but it does not load in properly as you can see with the screenshots. I start up the initial setup, and i can get through most of it fine, but some areas *permissions* are all blotchy. like i can toggle them on to submit data but i cant see what it is exactly im agreeing to. Then i start the phone, Google App automatically crashes, along side system ui. When i updated them, it seemed to fix the problem. But the issue is, i am not receiving phone calls and texts until possibly days later, and when i send texts it says "sending" and proceeds to spam the hell outta whoever its going to (sends literally 30+ texts). When i call someone, my phones Do Not Disturb mode gets enabled, and then nicely cuts out my audio. I can turn this feature off when im in the call, but sometimes it will then glitch the phone app, and i cannot essentially "hangup". My phone also now dies at 9%, where it had not previously (when i was on other rom / older stock) This all started after i updated to the october patch, and i noticed in december that i didnt have the december patch / update. I went to install it, and the same exact thing occurred. Ive attempted a rescue ota, and a sideload ota, and now this stuff as well, but i fear the worst for my phone. Let me know if i need to add anything else
Strephon may be right in suggesting a hardware fault, but equally it may just be that your phone is now somehow corrupted. My only suggestion is that you nuke it - factory reset, TWRP, wipe everything again in TWRP, and then try installing from fresh using the 7.1.1 full (not OTA) image and the instructions I posted earlier. If it still doesn't work I'm out of ideas, but there are people with far greater experience here than I have, so don't give up. It's too nice a device to just write off.

That's a new feature of 7.1.1. So you won't have to listen to notifications while on the phone. It's disabled as soon as the phone call is over.

miflash error: not catch checkpoint (\$fastboot -s .*lock), flash not done -> HELP?!
Hello,
I unlocked my Mi8 and successfully installed Lineage on it.
After trying to install Magisk, my phone only boots into fastboot (and mi recovery, but that's not very helpful).
fastboot boot twrp.img results in error :
FAILED (remote: Failed to load/authenticate boot image: 00000050)
I tried MIFLASH by
1) downloading, dezipping and starting newest miflash (2020.3.14.0)
2) installing drivers
3) downloading and dezipping MIUI-fastboot-ROM
4) entering path* into miflash, refresh and flash (already tried all options "clean all" to "clean all and lock")
*) path to the folder that includes among others flash_all.bat
all this results in error:
not catch checkpoint (\$fastboot -s .*lock), flash not done
Nothing changed with the phone, still the same error.
While wanting to review the logs, I clicked in miflash on log/flash log. The log did not say anything helpful, but the error code of fastboot boot twrp.img changed to command write failed (Unknown error). Nothing else changed.
UPDATE: changed back to previous error (remote: Failed to load/authenticate boot image: 00000050)
If you have any idea or need any more information, please tell me!
I need that phone and cannot afford to terminally brink it!!
I did not find much online, did no one else had this problem??
THANK YOU!
PS: Using lenovo-laptop with quite vanilla win10 (and not so vanilla kubuntu dualboot, but miflash only supports windows)

UPDATE:
what would the world be without mysteries. Though I cannot really accept them in the IT sector, I cannot really explain, why "everything" works now.
The error of miflash still exists, but fastboot works.
I tried booting and flashing the lineage boot.img instead of twrp.img as well as miflash about every five minutes. I do not think it was the latter, though.
I am still curious on that matter, but having everything working is more important.
Thank you anyway.
Never encountered that error however, if you have Lineage installed i have to wonder how or why your phone is able to boot into mi recovery ? You should have a custom recovery installed (twrp, orangefox .. something)
If you have a ryzen laptop - see the thread about ryzen cpu - they have some issues with recognising properly devices via usb - solved by using a hub.
There is no need to use miflash to flash the fastboot miui rom - you can do it from command line in both windows and linux. Once you decompress the fastboot tar.gz, you have .bat and .sh files in the folder - miflash runs those exact files. Just install adb and fastboot on kubuntu and run your choice of script (flash_all, flash_all_lock, etc.) this has the added benefit of not needing odd drivers in windows (last time i used miflash it complained about some .net stuff that i had to manually install).
Since normally you would install twrp i have to wonder if by any chance mi-recovery is not checking the boot image before flashing it ... not sure, or maybe it had something to do with the FBE of lineage since there was no recovery in place to decrypt the partitions, if i remember correctly, the boot image needs to be signed with the verity key. The log snippet you provided doesn't tell anything as it has no error messages or anything.
Either way, not sure how what you brutforced to get it working but glad it solved itself, however, if you still have mi-recovery instead of a custom one, i would suggest you backup the device, flash MIUI without locking the bootloader, installing twrp (not just booting it) and reinstalling lineage from there. (all this can be done from your kubuntu install so you avoid driver and other windows shenanigans)
to install adb and fastboot it's just a question of sudo apt install adb fastboot
either tar -xvzf the archive of the fastboot image or just extract it from the file manager
open a terminal in the extracted folder (where the bat and sh files are)
put the phone in fastboot mode, connect via usb and do a "fastboot devices" just to make sure the device shows up
./flash_all.sh (this does the exact same thing as the clean option in miflash - just open the script and take a look through it)
Once the flash is done and the phone reboots, skip through all the setup steps just so miui loads up then reboot to fastboot
get twrp from their website, open terminal where it is downloaded and "fastboot flash recovery <name_of_file>.img"
once the command finishes do a "fastboot boot <name_of_file>.img" and once you are in twrp, go yo wipe, do a factory reset, back, advanced wipe and select the caches, back, format data, type yes, back to the main menu of twrp and reboot recovery, this should boot you back into twrp but this time the one that is flashed on the device.
from here on install rom of choice and magisk as usual (use the install option in twrp tho, don't unpack the zip)
Had the phone for 2 years and i flashed different roms on it almost weekly since the wait time to unlock the bootloader expired and never had an issue with this workflow and it saves you from having to use windows. Even for unlocking the bootloader, in case you ever lock it back up, you can use https://xiaomitool.com/V2/download (worked like a charm on linux)

Thank you for your detailed reply!
Of cause, in order to install lineage, I used TWRP. But I somehow did not install it, but used fastboot boot twrp.img in order to manually temporary boot twrp every time I need it. It was not intentionally at first (did do
"fastboot flash recovery <name_of_file>.img"
Click to expand...

) but I learned to like the mi recovery for it's wiping and being able to use with the keys (not touch, since I managed to disable touch once before that). Mi recovery does not allow flashing at all, so no worries there^^
I have read the ryzen thread before posting, that's why I included my hardware. Not sure, if Lenovo has ryzen, mine does not.
Why I did not think of just running the script in kubuntu instead of hassling with windows, I do not know. Guess it does have something to do with the wood in front of all the trees.
I have the phone for about one and a half week and flashed it at least once a day :laugh:
But I hope to neither lock it again (twice is sweaty enough) nor have to flash it every week.
Thank you very much, if I ever lock myself out again or get another phone to set up, I will defintely reread this post!
btw: is there no way in xda to close a thread?
