Strange brick(plz help) - Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers

[SOLVED]
So, I have a xiaomi mi 8 and recently I was tryin to install a custom rom(now I understand that I should make a full wipe, but my problem is not there). I tried to install miui.eu pie version to update it to miui.eu 11 but I got a strange brick. The phone shows only boot logo, sometimes it reboots and shows me that logo again. But I cant enter recovery or fastboot. I dont know what to do.
So the solution is edl flash, if it's ARB, THERE IS NO OTHER SOLUTION

If you can't put it on recovery or fastboot then you'll have to try with edl mode, the problem is that you have to take it apart, tho I would try again fastboot and recovery a few times

The devices on boot shows Unlocked sign on the bottom of the screen? If it is boot on twrp recovery and go to Wipe Button and format data, type yes and then press enter, after that reboot to recovery and then reflash miui 11 rom and wipe data, dalvik, cache, then reboot your device and will boot to miui without any problem, i had the same problem on my mi 8 with android q miui 11 rom!

flash china rom using miflash tool,instal twrp,format data if internal shows as 0mb,direct install eu rom...
no need to wipe anything

Solved
So, the problem was the ARB system, I just found a guy that has an authorized xiaomi account and flashed via edl. There wasn't any other solution, thank you guys, this website is really user-friendly. Now I want a cool android q rom, but not sure about aosp projects(pixelexp, havoc(i get error 7, don't know why), maybe ressurection remix) or miui(such as eu, miroom, maybe masik(don't know alot about this one). I don't know(((. Anyway, thank you guys one more time))))))

Use the official and latest twrp recovery!

help i get this brick.. i just stuck On Mi logo without Unlock Text. sometime srestart but still stuck in Mi Logo Without Unlock Text. cant go to fastboot or twrp. please help me

9t Pro bricked, can only access fastboot HELP

[SOLVED]
I need help I just bricked my phone and can only access fastboot.
I just unlocked my 9t pro to install a custom rom and followed the steps of this video ( can't post link but it's called: Redmi K20 Pro / MI 9T Pro - INSTALL Pixel Experience ROM Official | Android 9 Pie)
I managed to install twrp, made a backup of dtbo, boot, system and data and then wiped dalvik, cache, system and Data. After that I flashed DM Verity Force Encrypter and proceeded to flash havoc-os which gave me Error 7. I figured I might need to reboot the recovery, after doing so only fastboot comes up anymore. I cannot access twrp and have no OS installed. Please help.
If bootloader unlocked, you could use MiFlash to flash stock Rom

This is the problem with random YouTube videos, they don't always give good advice.
There is no reason to back up dtbo, unless you are going to install an overclocked screen refresh rate mod.
There's no reason to wipe system.
There's no need to install DM Verify Force Encrypter, unless you know what they are for and you choose to disable DM Verify and/or permanently disable encryption.
Go here https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/archive/miui/raphael/
And choose the fastboot ROM for the version you want to install, then flash it in the Mi Flash Tool.
When flashing you MUST change the flash option at the bottom of the screen to 'clean all'. If you do not change this you will brick your phone (worse than it is now)
After this you can start again. Your best solution to flashing is to search these forums. There's many good guides here

Mi 9T Pro Global Issues Flashing Rom help

Mi 9T Pro 64 GB Global (MIUI Global 11.0.1 QFKMIXM) with Bootloader Unlocked
I keep running into issue when I install a ROM where one of two things happens every time I try...
I lose TWRP and the system boots directly to Fastboot (seems to happen with MiUI based roms)
I can re-push TWRP via ADB/Fastboot​Trying to flash any ROMs at this point will result in Error 7 (phone is wrong model)​I cannot seem to figure out why or what to do about it. Going back to stock with MiFlash is the only thing I can get to work​
I keep TWRP and the system either boot loops or boot directly to TWRP (happens with AOSP Roms)
When this happens it also scrambles sdcard and gives Unable to Wipe FBE Drive when trying to wipe​The only solution I've found to recover is use MiFlash to return to stock and then go through the unlock process again.​
I have been trying to follow the ROM dev instructions, which tend to all go somewhat like:
Reboot to TWRP
Wipe Data & Cache/Dalvik (and sometimes System when AOSP)
Flash MIUI 11 vendor/firmware for your device variant (I am guessing this is where I am screwing up, but not sure how...I have also tried starting fulling stock w/OTA updates to see if it helps)
Flash the ROM
Reboot to System
I think this may be an issue of missing something simple, like the wrong FW/Vendor files, but I cannot figure it out exactly what I should be doing.
My goal is to try EvoX and LinageOS; however, at this point I have tried several others and would be happy if I could get any non-factory version working.

Evolution x problem

So i installed/flashed evolution x rom OSS vendor using orangefox (unchecked the unmount system thingy)without any error
my phone is decrypted so first thing i did is
wipe the cache,data,system,vendor,dalvik/art cache then
Add the evo x rom to queue then next is the DFE.zip then after succesfully flashed i reboot to system it worked and played for hours then I was planning to install magisk and pressed the reboot to recovery then the problem begun always stuck at fastboot wont boot to recovery cant even shutdown the phone always starts at fastboot.
whats the problem? or did I do anything wrong??
right now im using stock rom again but i want to use custom rom.
Mi 9t pro global latest update.
I had the same problem with other ROM. Even after flashing recovery once again my phone couldn't exit fastboot. The cause could be a damaged boot partition, but I'm not 100% certain.

flashed the latest fastboot version from https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/raphael to bring the phone back to life.
same problem? repeat after me:
choose a fastboot version, click download and then scroll down to the fastboot version (.tgz file type, don't get confused as the first download button is recovery version again...). extract and copy to minimal adb & fastboot. run "flash_all.bat".
phone starts with miui
softbrick, soft brick mi9 t pro, fastboot, flash stock rom, bootloop fastboot, Redmi K20 Pro, Raphael
still wondering what caused that bootloop...

Custom recovery won't open...

My phone name and model is redmi 9c (angelica) variant..i will get straight to the point..i installed an updated version of my from 12.0.22 to 12.5.4.0 through orange fox recovery...i flashed the recovery by dirty flashing where i just cleared cache and delvik ART or something...then just flashed the whole update zip file through recovery.. everything was working and no problem then i just thought that i would open the custom recovery and it will not open and will kept itself stuck in recovery image or start image of the recovery not open or closing.. nothing worked until i thought i should just factory reset my phone but it won't factory reset itself and will get stuck on that same custom recovery logo and i had manually force it open like i did by press and holding the power button until it vibrated..it opened like normal shut down or restart...so i my phone couldn't be formatted so what i did was to download the fastboot version of my phone that i had installed and took the recovery.img file and flashed it through another phone through bugjaeger app..since i don't have a pc that all i could do and it worked the stock recovery came back and i can wipe my data if i want....but if i installed the custom recovery.img once again it won't work and will get stuck like that time so i want a solution where i can get custom recovery back again...and i gave my full story because someone might be in a similar position as me and by doing something that i did might just help them and also i want a solution to get my custom recovery back plz someone help me.....
you should know that there is a version of Pbrp Vendor R (Miui 12.5), it is the one that works but has encryption, it is unfortunate but if you have MicroSD you will have no problem installing magisk
