Help| Can't boot - Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus Questions & Answers

Hi,
I have Carbon ROM with Android 10,
I wanted to flash Bliss ROM, and it says that I need a rooted device,
So I've downloaded Magisk and follow the instruction, created a boot.img and flashed it in fastboot, then I did the same only with twrp recovery & Magisk, flashed it and now it is wiered and I'm not sure what is the problem,
I have fastboot BUT when I try to perform any command, it shutsdown and preety useless, I've tried from PC, if I try from MAC, I can boot into twrp but every operation is causing the tablet to reboot.. So I can't even flash a stock ROM,
In PC, the recognized Android device (When in fastboot mode) I update it's driver to Android bootloader device
Now, fastboot says: "fastboot: error: cannot get boot partition size"
tried:
fastboot flash:raw boot boot.img
fastboot flash:raw recovery twrp.img
How can I solve it?
Thanks !!!

Did you also try
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
?
I can boot into twrp but every operation is causing the tablet to reboot

I didn't understand the problem, I think.
You flashed a patched boot.img and your twrp recovery isn't working? Like if you press a button, it just reboots?
I have fastboot BUT when I try to perform any command, it shutsdown and preety useless

If you do
Code:
fastboot devices
it also doesn't work?
Or only if you flash a img?

Troubles reinstalling TWRP [Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error]

I dirty flashed a new version of xiaomi.eu stable build, and it caused TWRP to uninstall itself.
Whenever I hold power on and volume up it just goes to fastboot.
Now I tried reinstalling TWRP like I've done many times before, but it keeps throwing an error. The error I get is when trying to boot without flashing the img. When I do this, I get the error:
Code:
fastboot boot TWRP.img"
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 1.609s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error)
finished. total time: 1.675s
Anyone gotten any ideas on what could be going on here? I'm scared to try anything as my phone currently works, but I need TWRP back to update my phone to a different versions and to install the clock mod again.
Thanks!
Got it to load once, but now back to square one. Throwing same error.
Now when running the command fastboot reboot recovery it's saying
Code:
fastboot: usage: unknown reboot target recovery
And writing 'fastboot boot twrp.img' turns the phone off / makes the screen go black. Fully bricked now as the OS wont load either.
Try on a computer with a USB 2.0 port, or a different usb cable, had the same issue once
Ended up having to reinstall dev rom. Device relocked, so have to wait 15 days again. @BusterBg_18 Thanks, will do when I unlock the device
EDIT: When using Mi Flash tool, make sure to check 'clean all' and not 'clean all and lock' in the bottom right. That's what set me back 2 weeks.
I have the same error. How can I fix this pls?

Flash the latest official rom then start all over again. Follow the post above you about miflash.
Hello, I've had the same problem, then flashed latest dev rom via MiFlash and it booted, but now after I flash any custom ROM in TWRP i have this issue again and need to reflash chinese ROM. How can I flash any custom rom?
i'm stuck in the same issue. stuck in fastboot and it would not load recovery. any fix?
Hi, i fixed the "Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error" by simply restarting the Device.
It seems to appear randomly when flashing partitions and then block all further Transfers.
If the Device loops in Fastboot, the only Solution to me was re flashing the Stock Firmware.

I have the same Issue, but reflashing Stock Firmware or making OTA Updates dident helped for me. Ive already tried TWRP and OrangeFox without success. The Screen always turns black and Fastboot stays active in an limited Mode, any Ideas? My host Computer only has 3.0+ Ports only, but ive used an 2.0 Extender so it should be fine?

all img files come from the official rom china stable V12.0.2.0.QEBCNXM (.tgz), download and extract the tgz file then find img files from images folder

BROOOOOOOOOO HAHAHAHAHAHA I LITERALLY JUST READ YOUR COMMENT AND 10 SECONDS LATER I FLASH THE ROM WITH "CLEAN ALL AND LOCK" Im a f-king dumb bro
Marihot said:
你好,我也经历过同样的事情。
这个方法帮助我摆脱它。
尝试使用 adb 从要在 hh 中安装的 rom 中重新刷新一些文件映像。
将下面的文件从 rom 映像复制到 adb 文件夹
1.system.img(adb >> fastboot flash system system.img中的命令)
2. boot.img(adb 中的命令,如#1,更改 img 文件的名称)直到 #6
3. 供应商.img
4.dtbo.img
5. 自定义.img
6. 杂项.img
7. 现在用adb刷twrp/recovery.img(选择twrp与你要安装的rom兼容)
8. adb 的“fastboot boot recovery.img”
9. twrp刷入rom

MI9 can't boot and stucked in fastboot

Hello all.
Here is my problem
I successfully unlocked my bootloader and I flashed latest maunofrio twrp v35
In TWRP, I did a full wipe in TWRP and formatted data partition to remove encryption
But now, I can't boot again in twrp and I'm stucked in fastboot.
Vol UP + power does not boot in twrp but still in fastboot..
When I hit the command : fastboot flash recovery recovery.img, it says OK
But fastboot boot recovery.img no longer workos now, failed
( before wiping and formatting all it worked )
I don't know what to do now to access twrp..
Any help is very appreciated
Greetings
Try another recovery and if it failed try full flash latest stable rom
Well, I have been warning so many times that use any TWRP in MI9:
1. format data partition
2. reboot TWRP and then enter twrp. Make twrp mount data partition
3. wipe everything BUT please keep system partition only
4. reboot twrp and then enter twrp again
5. Now wipe system partition and then flash any rom you want
6. reboot
How to save your phone now ? Please try fastboot ROM and use miflash app to save your phone !

@Kris Chen I am in similar situation here... Can you please help?
First of all - which TWRP should we use for Mi9T? IS this one good? https://mifirm.net/model/davinci.ttt#other-twrp
After flashing recovery-TWRP-3.3.1-0607-REDMI_K20-CN-wzsx150.img - fastboot boot twrp.img goes okay
And then after "fastboot boot twrp.img" the phone restarts and is just stuck on the "semitransparent" MI logo...
I can press Vol+- and power buttons and boot into Mi 3 recovery, wipe data, set up the phone again. And then it is all over again. I am new to this and probably making some basic mistake?
EDIT. I think the mistake was to trying to use a wrong TWRP...
Some questions here:
1. Is Redmi K20 CN the same as Mi9T?
If yes, that twrp is correct and the best one
2.After flashing twrp, can you enter twrp by general
method : power + volume up to enter twrp?
If yes, I think the problem is coming from your data
partition. Please format your data partition first and
then reboot to Twrp again. Then copy your rom in your
phone and then wipe cache/ dalvik cache/system. Next
to flash rom. Always Remeber not to reboot your
phone if you haven't flashed rom under twrp after
flashing system partition.

This is what I had to do both times this happened.
I have the same exact problem
I used the same TWRP and I also wiped system.
Did you fixed it already?

As i understand, you wiped system and then restarted? And now you can enter only fastboot?
When you wipe system you must flash a ROM without restart or after restart, only fastboot available. TWRP version has nothing to do with this.
Now you must use mi flash or adb and fastboot utility. Download fastboot version of ROM, then open archive and flash it using mi flash or flash_all.bat script. flash_all_lock.bat will also lock your bootloader and mi flash has that option too, so check twice what option you choose
After flashing ROM you can flash TWRP again and it will be available, because by flashing ROM you restored system
I had the same problem.
Try to flash vbmeta.img via fastboot (fastboot --disable-verity flash vbmeta vbmeta.img) and then flash recovery then boot recovery.
Or try to flash boot.img (fastboot flash boot boot.img) then flash recovery.

I got you chief. Make sure you have adb and fastboot installed.
No you don't need Mi flash tool for this. All you need is a computer.
Go to fastboot mode, plug in your device and expand cepheus.tgz file you downloaded. Link below
https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/
Now open the folder. You have the flash_all files in there. Any .bat file is for Windows only. Any .sh files are for Mac and Linux.
Make sure the device is recognized in fastboot via cmd or terminal
WINDOWS ONLY: Open Command prompt and drag flash_all.bat into the cmd window and press enter
MAC/LINUX: Open terminal and drag flash_all.sh into the terminal window and press enter.
This part requires some patience. Wait until everything is finished.
Reboot using power button and it should be back to normal.

Stuck in TWRP

Hi everybody,
I have used the command fastboot boot TWRP.img on my macbook connected to the MI9 and now I cannot bypass the TWRP screen. 3.3.1-1siankatabg.
I can only have the fastboot mode or the TWRP screen.
My bootloader is unlocked.
I don't have windows.
Thanks for the help;
May be because it's recovery.img and not TWRP.img Try to reflash TWRP (you may try different versions) if you will be able to boot TWRP but not system, reflash your rom, if not just flash fastboot ROM, it can be flashed in fastboot mod.
And i'm just guessing.
Flash TWRP again.
Connect your phone in Fastboot mode and use fastboot commands in this order:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
And now before u put this command, hold "Volume +" button until vibration:
Code:
fastboot reboot
Then in TWRP if your memory is encrypted, put the password in, and reboot to system from TWRP Menu.
Hi,
I managed to start but I had to erase data
Thanks!

Hello,
I deciden to install Android 10 Beta 3 then install a custom rom. I succesfully installed Android 10 Beta 3, and tried to install Magisk as told in here. After the patched boot.img step, my device stopped booting.
When I press Power+Volume Up or Down, it always goes to fastboot mode. I can't boot into recovery from fastboot, I can't boot TWRP from fastboot. I tried:
fastboot oem reboot-recovery
fastboot boot twrp.img
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
As shown in the image rebooting into recovery always failing. What can I do?
same problem here... were you able to fix it?
You might have to use the QFIL method to get your phone going again. Remember you MUST backup the EFS partition and anything associated with your phones imei and SN

Hey guy,
My phone was running the rom "UL-ASUS_X00QD-ASUS-AOSP-17.0615.2005.25-1.1.1-user.zip" (downloaded from Asus Web). I tried to install the TWRP ver 3.3.1 unofficial and my phone was stuck on the fastboot mode only.
After a lot of searching on how to fix the issue, I didn't change anything and almost gave up, until I've read this thread.
My Asus Zenfone 8 flip is STUCK in CSC FASTBOOT MODE PLZ HELP!, RAW FIRMWARE ANYONE???
These are what I did to get the phone into the recovery mode:
1. Extract the rom zip file that my phone was running on.
2. Copy the file boot.img to adb folder.
3. On PC, at adb folder enter CMD, connect the phone then type
fastboot -w
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot recovery
4. After that, my phone can be booted into the recovery mode.
Hope you can solve the same problem as me.
Bye bye ...

Question LineageOS error boot prepare

Hello,
I had LineageOS running for some time without any issues.
Then I tried to install a fresh copy of LineageOS by fastbooting the most recent recovery image like this:
fastboot flash vendor_boot <recovery_filename>.img
This command works and says "OKAY" and "Finished" but now I'm stuck in Fastboot Mode with "error boot prepare" and it won't launch into Recovery Mode.
How do I start over with a fresh recovery image?
Thank you

Not sure if it will help but, sometimes you might need to...
- Flash the same version of the boot image.
- Flash both slots with the same version.
[ fastboot flash boot boot.img ]
[ fastboot --slot all flash vendor_boot vendor_boot.img ]
[ fastboot --slot all flash boot boot.img ]
Cheers.
Thanks for your response. This issue is resolved.
About a year ago, I originally installed MicroG LineageOS (lineage.microg.org) and used their recovery image and build with no issues.
Now, for some reason, that exact same recovery image doesn't work anymore and gives "error boot prepare". Similarly, the latest version of the MicroG LineageOS recovery image gives "error boot prepare".
The only recovery image that would work is vendor_boot.img from LineageOS (without MicroG):
https://mirror.math.princeton.edu/pub/lineageos/full/barbet/ (in my case 20220915)
Using that I could adb sideload the latest MicroG LineageOS (from 20220915)
Hello guys, did you able to use esim? on latest lineage os? When I click on + to add esim, nothing happens
