Mi A2 bootloader relock bootloop, need help ASAP! - Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers

Hay soo i wanted to relock bootloader after failing to install custom recovery (both) i turned off oem unlocking in developer options and did fastboot oem lock. Now the phone is looping in "your device can't be checked for corruption. Please lock the bootloader" and it reboots and says the same again.
When i try to unlock the bootloader with fastboot oem unlock i get "FAILED (remote: Flashing Unlock is not allowed)
I really dont know what to do and i need a phone for comunication. Please help!

You should only lock the bootloader after installing the stock ROM, otherwise your device will be bricked and the only way you'll get it back working is by flashing the EDL test points near the phone's battery and reflashing the stock ROM back in EDL mode.
Try downloading this tool then try to unlock oem, flashing and flashing critical.

Noted. Thanks!
I really messed up here. The problem is i toggled allow oem unlocking off and to top it all off i did oem lock. Now its bootlooped (check the video). Does xiaomi fix this by warrenty? I really dont want to open the device up because i am afraid i will do more demage and void the warrenty and the device wont ever be fixed.

I have seen another guy who did this. How is this possible that you turn off the unlock bootloader option when you've already unlocked it? The option gets greyed out and becomes non-functional.
Anyways I guess the best option is to give your phone to Xiaomi for the fix.

It wasn't grayed out for me. I'm thinking of test pointing the device because i dont really want to wait few months until i get my phone back from service. (There is no xiaomi service in my Country)
But i'm afraid if i open the device i will void my warrenty for future.

I don't think you will since you don't need to disassemble the device, all you need to do is remove the aluminum back cover carefully with damaging it and you'll find the test points right besides the battery

this thread has continued to be unaswered for several years now.
only tested 2 phones... and it seems they both have bootloader status is unknown. i can do fastboot and recovery mode on the 2 phones but on fastboot mode.. only shows blank screen... idk why it's like that. i downgraded both phones to 12.2.0 version. and bootloader status is still unknown. it can be recognized by the computer in fastboot mode using fastboot devices command but you can't do anything to it. fastboot oem device-info does not work only shows .......... , fastboot oem unlock ....., only one working is fastboot adb_enable .. kinda useless. .. i gave up on unlocking the bootloader for this phone.. im too noob for this.

I opened this thread when I was still "noob-ish". The device's bootloader can't be unlocked. Unless someone hacks into it's bootloader (like LG L Fino), it might be possible.

I got root access with KingRoot and then flashed TWRP with Flashify.
Somehow that gave me access to bootloader without the necessity to downgrade the firmware.

[Help] Mi Mix with no rom and locked bootloader, can't enter recovery.

Hi everyone,
everything is in the title, yesterday I bricked my Mix when I tried to install a new version via recovery (Mi Pc suite chinese version).
It updated, started working (I entered the rom) then restarted because it asked for a reset, had to say yes, when it restarted I was in a bootloop of Xiaomi logo and couldn't go into recovery mode anymore.
Only fastboot works, but still can't install rom via because I didn't unlocked the bootloader yet and didn't check for usb debugging.
Any ideas would be really appreciated.
Regards

So you still be able to flash official with miflash?
When I try to flash via Mi flash it says critical partition error thing (probably because I still don't have unlock the bootloader)

Shouldn't need unlock to install genuine ROM from xiaomi with miflash, you are using the fastboot ROM right?
Likewise USB debugging shouldn't be necessary, as far as I know. Like if you have no ROM it wouldn't know anything about USB debugging.
Yes I'm using fastboot rom
On this page: http://en.miui.com/a-234.html You can see Mi Mix is listed as it needs to unlock before any flash with fastboot.
When I try flash with MiFlash, it says Flash xbl error : https://i.imgur.com/ct0xAQY.png

Yes I did, with all the bat files the images folder.
I'll try one more time when I get home.
Or wait some days to get the unlock permissions by xiaomi

Might be safer to just wait. If you do it now you will have to do it again in a day.
I tried to unlock again with no success, it says error because I didn't enable the "OEM Unlock" option..
Any suggestions?

PLEASE HELP - Device Bricked - edl waiting for device

Hello I have a Mi A2 with ONE.
I tried to install Mi6X following this guide:
Guide
I got to step 9:
9- Click Refresh on Mi Flash Then choose Clean all and click flash
Then I got this error:
Error oem edl miflash tool, ACK count don't match
Then I tryed instead to install Jasmine again, and I started getting this error:
Cannot receive hello packet,MiFlash is trying to reset status
And then I was stupid enough to unplug my phone
THE ACTUAL PROBLEM (rigth now)
1. My phone will start, then stay at Mi(mi.com) logo indefinitely.
2. I can't enter download mode, Vol + and power will bring me the Mi logo again and again.
3. Can enter Fastboot mode... BUT...
-Mi flash don't detect it
-miflash_unlock don't detect it
-edl.cmd, unlock auto, and unlock critical say "< waiting for device >"
Edit: I solved the problem using test point to enter EDL mode, then It connected and I could flash it.
our phones (mia2) are weird devices to be honest, mine was recently bricked after choosing the "reboot to bootloader" option in twrp. id recommend you to go to mi service center if your phone is still in warranty

Please, keep us updated.
I had the same issues like you months ago. The only solution you buy a pentalobe 0.8mm for iphone, a small philips screw driver, and a tweezer. Flash your phone in EDL mode. You need to contact 2 pins. You can search the location of the pins, how to disassemble the phone by googling it. then just flash Mi A2 stock ROM first, then convert it to Mi 6X again. I

The cable wasn't the issue, I am getting the tools to open it tonight.

Xiaomi has auto bricked after update- need help

Hey guys, i have MI A2 cellphone, and after auto update programmed to three hours the smartphone show "AndroidONE" logo and then shutdown, i tried "Fastboot oem unlock", but it is my output:
PHP:
C:\Users\Lucas Daniel>fastboot oem unlock
FAILED (remote: 'Flashing Unlock is not allowed
')
Finished. Total time: 0.000s
. I'm desperate, I do not know what to try anymore, I believe I do not have unlock OEM activated, someone can help me?
Sorry for bad english, i'm from brazilian.
@LukeSkyPTBR
It's a well-known issue. One update was revoked as soon as Xiaomi has found out about phones bricking once it's installed. There's no way you can fix it by yourself except if you have ordered your phone from China (and so no warranty you have) and have experience in disassembling phones. There's a thing called test-point, do some research if you are self-assured in that area. Otherwise let your authorized service center make everything for you. It is a warranty case, either way.

Thanks, looks that, unfortunately, my unique solution is test-point for activate EBL Mode... I will leave the topic open for the case of i get other solutions... after 3 days, if not get, i will close and the unique solution will really test-point.
Try rebooting it a couple of times and see if it boots. Or plug it to a charger and try booting it once it starts to charge successfully. If all fails, flashing via EDL might be your only option.
Try rebooting more than couple of time. Phone is supposed to switch to the other slot of A/B where original ROM (before update) resides. When it finally boots, get developer rights, switch on ADB Debugging and OEM unlock, thus next time update soft-bricks your phone you'll be able to unlock (or even better unlock immediately after successful boot not to loose your data in future).
Isnt Fastboot OEM Unlock command deprecated ? Shouldn't you use the unlock / unlock critical command ?

How can I do it? I leave the phone in the charger for a long time? Or do you need the power button for a long time?
I tried to press the power button for 2 minutes and nothing happened.
When i leave the smartphone on the charge, after 50 minutes, show for me 100% percent, so, i pressed power button and the screen stayed lock in "AndroidONE", nothing happened, until try again press power button.
The problem original comebacked to me

fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
Can't you just enter fastboot mode by holding power and vol- keys with phone connected to a PC?
(Or power and vol+, can't remember)

I can enter fastboot mode, but this is not enough to do run commands up. I would need unlock bootloader(OEM).

If you can enter fastboot then you can go to EDL mode by typing 'fastboot reboot edl' and then use QPST to flash the latest stock rom.

Do as tabun1994 said.
This will hopefully get the system up again.
The commands I wrote would unlock the bootloader. What else could I have meant?
If you succeeded with tabun's method, then you probably would only need to enable "USB debugging" and "OEM unlocking" in the ROM's developer options (which you'll enable by hitting "build number" in settings like 10 times or so).
Then you would connect the device and accept the 'trust this device' warning.
After booting to fastboot now, the commands I wrote should work and unlock the bootloader (if you even want that when your system is running again).

This command needs OEM Unlock :/
this is my output: fastboot: usage: unknown reboot target edl
The test point method is actually easy , you have to dissasemble the display , easy procedure , remove the battery and short the two test points with tweezerz or something ,and in the meantime you plug the usb cable into the computer. It should install the Qusb_Hub drivers , and with miFlash you should be able to reflash the firmware . I bought a phone that was in this state and fixed it using these steps.
No more solutions, I will do the test point method, thanks to everyone who tried to help otherwise.

No it doesn't, i have tried this method on locked bootloader, go to this link - https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...e-how-to-reboot-to-edl-fastboot-t3394292/amp/
And download the fastboot_edl.7z , your phone will be in edl mode, I think you don't have the proper platform files which has caused the problem.

Question REDMI NOTE 10S (Your system has been destroyed+ locked bootloader) error

I have redmi note 10s. I bacame bored of miui because of several bugs. So i decided to mod the device with a nice custom rom. I started the process. Because it is a mtk device, it has complicated flashing process than snapdragon devices. I entered the fastbootD mode and cleared the system by using adb command(which i dont remember). Then i flashed the custom rom. By mistake, I locked the bootloader by typing adb command fastboot oem lock. But now due to complicated case, the device is showing your system has been destroyed and when i try to force reboot it into fastboot, it still give systen destroyed error(means fastboot mode is inaccessible). Can anyone please help me to fix this issue without using edl pins? I am in a great issue
I cant go to service center as my device is out of warranty
in google there is a pc program than can unlock bootloader of mediatek devices, search for it
Bro i cant access the bootloader, so unlocking it doesnt make any difference
I want to restore the bootloader.

Okay so first of all download "mtk client"
Than open the mtk client
It will give you instructions on how to connect your phone, take back of everything except system(super),vendor and userdata. Tap on flash tab there you'll notice a option called unblock bootloader tap on it and your bootloader will be unlocked
Bro Will this restore my bootloader or only unlock it because if it only unlocks then your help wont work.

You need to see the PM I've sent to you. You will find it here.
Start from BROM mode - that is always available. Then you can use mtktool to restore everything. I have an article about it on my blog, but I am not supposed to post it here... find it in my profile, or send me a PM for help.
