About MIUI EU ROM Brick and won't be able to connect to PC or OTG (Lose usb port) - Xiaomi Mi 10T / 10T Pro Guides, News, & Discussion

Well, all of this started when i tried to install the MIUI EU rom by TWRP, the surprise will come when the phone didn't boot. I've tried this on January of this year.
I tried everything, change port, motherboard flex, usb cable, another PC but no works.
Today i found a folder on /dev/usb-ffs/fastboot and it's empty but the adb folder (/dev/usb-ffs/adb) contains three files (ep0, ep1 and ep2). I'm not a programmer but maybe that fastboot folder would have that files.
Reading the default.prop i found the "Redmi K30s Ultra" name on ro.product.model
All of this make me think on the posibility of my phone will never be recovered, the phone only boot on fastboot and twrp but don´t detect the PC maybe for the files which is needed to boot or recognized is lost.
The TWRP version is ( 3.5.2_10 by Master and the phone gets the E:Unable to decrypt data error)

This rom (muiu 13) can only be installed via fastboot method. You can't use twrp or update method...

I don't think there are any issues with the hardware
1. Are you sure that you have installed the correct drivers for the device in windows?
2. Have you tried using a different PC? Alternatively try to use Linux
3. Have you tried adb sideload method from TWRP? eg) adb sideload rom.zip

4. Have you tried simply formatting data from TWRP before attempting to boot?

Going Crazy/Brick

Here is the story in a nutshell I flashed xdabbeb's bootstack, then his rom. Then I did something stupid such as wipe everything folks, I mean everything. So my phone then restarted and I am able to get into recovery twrp 2.7.
I have tried in twrp to sideload, mount neither which work.
I have my drivers installed it says in device manager when I plug the phone up for download mode
android- galaxy nexus adb
and under ports it says LGE AndroidNet for VZW ADB Interface com41
I tried lg flash tool, tried with old vs98010b rom
pid:
imei:
model:
dll: vs980
bin: vs98010b_13.tot
swv:
swov:
model information check fail!
00000000
I really need help guys, are there any adb commands I can type or are there any drivers I need to install
Ok when i hold the up and plug in it takes me to fastboot
[500] fastboot mode started
[550] udc_start()
[720] reset
[730] portcharge
[740] reset
[750] portcharge
and the device only registers as android under other on my computer
i've installed lg drivers
How can you fastboot flash? When I hold up and plug in for fastboot my computer wont register a driver just shows android what are the commands and how do I use fastboot

Download mode is not going to work because the laf partition (this allows for download mode to work) is wiped when you flash xdabbeb's bootstack in favor of fastboot mode.
I suggest you pm xdabbeb; he will guide you on the steps to using the necessary fastboot commands to get your phone working again. He's already helped a few people that were in the same situation as you are in right now.
Fastboot is good because you can write certain partitons at a time without having to .tot and wipe your whole phone.
You could also flash his xdabbeb_vs98024a_laf.zip http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407586639 file in TWRP 2.7 to restore download mode, but you will end up wiping your whole phone by using the LG Flash Tool, even your sd card when you restore your phone.
You said you "wiped everything", I'm not sure if that means your sd card too, if so, then that might be the easiest thing to do since you still have access to recovery. You will need an otg cable and a flash drive to mount the flash drive in TWRP 2.7 and flash the file, unless you can side load the file with adb.
Either way, like I mentioned earlier, it might be a good idea to pm xdabbeb first.
Hey my phone is already wiped even sdcard, but the thing is i cant flash that file because I can not get it on my phone. So ill ask xdabbeb the fastboot commands. Yeah and I read about the otg cable, ordered one of those babies should be here this saturday and hopefully it will mount my flash drive in that case id be golden untill then ill see what mr xdabbeb has to say.
cant sideload
everytime i try to sideload the file it just says cant read file or something like that
And I really appreciate you responding. Always nice to get support from somebody when your just sitting here and your phone seems like it hasnt been working for an eternity. Almost depressing not hearing from anyhbody and just seeing all the views but no replys. Thank you
Hey there...Fastboot is about as basic/simple/reliable as it comes. If you have adb/fastboot set up properly then command is:
fastboot flash <partition> <filename>
for example:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
In your case, you claim to have a working recovery (twrp 2.7), but are unable to copy files from your computer to your phone. It sounds like you don't have the proper drivers installed so that you can use adb from recovery. This is a common/known issue with windows and I believe I replied to you in the rom thread already about this, but you need to install/use Koush's universal adb driver and simply copy the rom file over to your phone using the following command:
adb push <filename> /sdcard/
After you have the file there you can flash it as normal in recovery.
If you want to use a kdz/tot method to restore your phone, just download the laf zip file from my thread, extract the laf.img file from the zip, and use the following command to put it in place:
fastboot flash laf laf.img
Then you can go about the tot restore method described in the thread here. You don't need to put the tot file itself on your phone. It just needs to be on your computer.
I get to sdk and open cmd
type adb devices it says
List of devices attached
0215817d960ce580 sideload
Then I type adb push rom.zip /sdcard/
error: closed
When phone is plugged in for adb device manager says under android device- Google galaxy Nexus ADB Interface
I have universal drivers installed and I goto device manger to update drivers where clockworkmod is installed and it doesnt do anything
Fastboot it says in other devices in device manager

I type fastboot flash recovery laf.img

Wait, I'm confused here a little bit. Are you trying to do sideload mode in TWRP or are you using fastboot mode?
And the command you typed is not correct fastboot flash recovery laf.img...you don't want to do that...this would flash the laf.img in your recovery partition.
xdabbeb referenced two methods to you...one was pushing a Rom to your sdcard and then flashing that Rom in TWRP to get your phone booting...the other was to flash the laf.img file and do a .tot if that's what you prefer.
It seems like you want to do a .tot restore, so do the second method xdabbeb suggested.
Get into fastboot mode and type fastboot flash laf laf.img
Make sure you use the correct laf.img...you can extract it from the zip in my previous post/link.
After this your download mode should be working again.
I was trying either one
For fastboot I downloaded xdabbebs laf
the image file in his file is laf.img, if thats not the right file then where is the recovery.img
So the recovery.img would have been one that i made?
and laf is so I can us lg tool to tot flash?
Even when i try to flash the laf it keeps saying waiting for device. I have the drivers koushu installed and lg

Yes, download xdabbeb's laf.img, it's the link I gave you originally. You will have to take out the laf.img file from the zip file that is called xdabbeb_vs98024a_laf.zip
The recovery command he gave was just an example, there was no need for you to use it.
Yes, flashing the laf.img will fix your download mode and you will be able to do the .tot method.

That sounds like a driver issue. Reboot your computer and turn off the phone and start again. See if that helps. You can also remove the drivers and re-install...I suggest you reboot your computer every time you install new drivers.
EDIT:
Are you using a newer adb.exe from your android sdk? If you have ioroot25 installed on your computer I suggest you use the folder/files from there. It has a newer adb.exe in there; put your laf.img file in that folder too if you do use that instead, and run the command prompt from within that folder.
Ok when my phone is plugged into my comp, im on win 7 it shows up as android under other devices when started in fastboot mode. When I browse to the driver location to load for the android it says no driver found for it.
Yes i just installed the sdk like 2 days ago so I know its current.
As far as the driver situation, why would I need to uninstall if it isnt even installing a driver.
This is terrible

For me it shows up under "ADB Interface", but I don't have the universal driver installed.
I didn't realize it wasn't installing the driver for you.
You have to get that driver going or you won't be able to get your phone fixed. Maybe try a different usb port or a different computer.
Man yeah mine doesnt look at all like that. Im uninstalling lg driver and universal one and clearing temp folder. Then restart and reinstall maybe that will work. So its just the koushu driver that works for fastboot and adb right?

Yeah, it should work. I've read posts by others stating that it works.
Yep just reinstalled the universal drivers, plug phone up into fastboot and still get the same result
Can you perhaps send me that driver you have? Because I know if you have that one and it works for you it SHOULD work for me. Murphs law is killing me. I can pm you my email address

no OS no rom flashable in the memory

I've made a mistake,
I've wiped all with twrp:
system,
boot,
cache,
internal storage
So I've no OS and no flashable zip in the device.
I've tried to use ADB sideload, but i'm not able to use. I've drivers installed in the pc, but mobile phone is not recognised (other driver missing???).
Fastboot is working and the device is recognized.
Is it possible to flash a rom via fastboot, in this current status?
Or how to make it working the ADB shell? what is missing??
Thank you all.
Please save my phone!

hi there,
have you even bothered looking, or searching?? pretty much every thread has the info you need.
if you had bothered looking at the the Frequently Asked Question sticky including page 3
you would have your answer
or any of the other Q&A thread, for example: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52396849&postcount=11
Sounds like you need to download the right drivers for Windows and adb push a rom zip on over. If your having no luck with Windows, load up a live cd or usb of Ubuntu and install adb there.
Good luck and happy searching.
it is possible to flash a ROM/ RUU via fastboot but you should install the right ADB to your PC. other way, mount your storage via TWRP, copy your ROM to your storage, then flash it.

I've obviously seen the faq, but nothing was working.
however, ad have you said I've to install the right ADB on my pc. In fact adb was not working because drivers was not working.
I've resolved doing the following.
Remove manually drivers from windows, install manually drivers, restart windows :good:
:good::good::good: adb now is working
Thank you for the support

XiaoMi Mi3:No OS, computer not detecting device.

I'm using TWRP recovery and I accidentally deleted the internal storage while trying to flash a custom ROM.
I have searched high and low for solutions but have found nothing.
I wanted to adb sideload a ROM but alas my computer (W8.1) will not detect the device. I know it's not a pc problem as it detects the ADB on my S6.
When I plug in my Mi3 in recovery mode, my computer just beeps and then nothing. No device found even if Device Manager. It still charges though.
When I plug it in in fastboot, the computer says usb not recognized.
Tried everything I could. Please help!
if you have a OTG pen drive or a pendrive with otg cable then format the pendrive with fat32 file system and then copy the ROM file in the pen drive which you want to flash. Now connect this pendrive with your phone and boot into twrp, this will detect the pendrive.
Now goto Advanced/File Manager
Goto /usbotg folder and copy the rom file and then paste it into /sdcard. Now the ROM file is ready to get flashed.

Thanks for the reply!
Is that my only option right now? I don't have a pendrive and would maybe buy it as a last option. But if it's the only way then so be it.

okay so you can also try one more method.(but I am not sure if this will work with fastboot or not)
Download a software named as AdbDriverInstaller.exe into your PC .
Goto fastboot mode and connect your phone with pc then click "Install".
I hope this will install the Adb driver.
Note: As you are on w8.1 try to disable driver signature verification(google it if you dont know about it) if the above method fails and then try again.

I downloaded the file and connected my phone ion fastboot but the program does not recognize the device at all.
Thank you for the help though!
BTW did you tried opening the bat files after extracting the fastboot ROM? Instead of using any software I just use the bat files to flash ROM

Sorry for sounding ignorant but can you link me to somewhere where I can learn to do that? A guide of some sort.
But the main problem is that I can't connect to whatever computer I can get my hands on.
Would doing this on Linux make a difference?
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390355257214632011 this should be the zip I believe (I have the zip, but not downloaded from there). After extracting. In extracted folder press right click with shift to open command prompt in the folder. Connect phone in fastboot mode. Enter fastboot devices command in cmd to see if you can see the device

Bricked Realme X2 Pro (Still have TWRP and Fastboot)

I was trying to flash the Ozip to restore the stock rom using TWRP and after that boom
damaged boot/recovery that msg
i still can go inside twrp and the fastboot mode
what i did notice is that the file folder name changed to system_root and it was just system bevor
is there any fix for it i am using the CN Version
(how-to unbrick your realme device) fastboot needed fix inside.
I Went totally nuts last night when i bricked my phone so i did figure out my self how to unblock the phone.
First you need to BE ABLE TO ENTER FASTBOOT it won't work without it and you need working TWRP.
First you need to go to TWRP and go to mount and unmount everything and disable MTP.
Then go to Advanced and select Terminal
type in LS make sure there is 2 Folders one called system and one called system_root
make sure that the system folder is empty if empty type in rm -r system
and rename the system_root folder to system using mv system_root system
after that boot into Fastboot mode and Flash your Rom for your Device using the Fastboot Tool
Hope that works for you guys.
System wiped/corrupted. Flash the chinese fastboot rom to fix it via fastboot

Thanks,I fixed it but not with your steps,it turns out using the Chinese twrp fixed everything for me
Solved.! (For me) CN
I unlocked the bootloader according to the guide [Guide] Guides for x2 Pro[Locking/unlocking bootloader, tweaks and more]. And flashed TWRP successfully. MY MAIN MISTAKE -> DIDN'T MAKE A BACKUP AT THIS POINT.
Then I flash canary debug magisk and open gapps micro (culprit for brick). Then tried to reboot but stuck in yellow Realme screen. Then went back to recovery tried "Facrory reset", "Format data", flash latest CN ozip, even fastboot flash and guide by natedogg20050 with no luck. But Lineage OS unofficial by karthick mostwanted worked with magisk 20.3. :good:
For one final time I tried to get back the stock(since Lineage is still in alpha ATM), after seeing this post by exadeci. Did a "format data" following fastboot flash with chinese images, SUCCESS...!!! :victory: And even updated with ozips from CN site worked.. Finger print works too.
Still in update process to latest .15 . Plan to install magisk.(hopefully canary debug).
Will update this after latest upgrade + magisk install.
don't worry we can
first reboot to recovery
then go to wipe
and wipe sytem,catche,davik catche and data
then download the stock os for realme software
download link(please select your mobile) in realme software website
and flash the recovery
wipe catche and data
and you are back to stock os
enjoy

after do that my phone boot only in TWRP but i can't see anything.
if I connect the phone to the computer it is empty and if I want to transfer something on it gives me an error.
can you help me ?
SOLVED: i formatted by TWRP.
When I type LS in terminal it gives a long list. There is a "system" and a "system_root".
When I try to open "system" with cd system command, it says, no such file or directory. When I enter "cd system_root" it goes into this Folder. But using "ls" command within this Folder it just shows nothing. Am I doing something wrong?
Any idea?
P.S. Yes I can enter fastboot, and TWRP is working.

Thanks for asking! Yes, I did, but in a different way. It was a long way, running from stuck in yellow realme boot logo to bootloops already on the white realme start logo. Finally I got back a running system, which I don't trust anymore now. My configuration is:
- unlocked bootloader
- TWRP 3.3.1.13
- Magisk canary debug 8ca5a048 (20405)
- Magis Manager 72f6770d (278)
- Andorid 10, C24
I was already at this point 2 days ago. Then Magisk Manager announced an update. Stupid as I am, I just klicked install, and arrived at the same point. Stuck in yellow boot logo, and the whole operation started from beginning. Now I am at the same point again as above, and Magisk Manager announces again an update for itself. But I don't trust it anymore, and I don't know what to do. Just leave it? Or making a nandroid backup first? But will it be sufficiant to backup boot partition, system image and data when the crash comes again? I don't know what to do.

If you have unlocked bootloader you could go in fastboot mode and flash twrp, then format data

Question I might have bricked my phone, I need help

I am just new to this flashing custom roms or firmware and twrp also. And dumb enough to not back it up.
I wanted to install arrow os in my phone. When I was about to wipe data, cache and dalvik, I accidentally checked metadata also and wiped. Then problems created more problems.
problems right now:
I cant put a file in my storage
Internal Storage is just blank on my pc
No OS
TWRP on both slots
please help me i really needed help and knowledge about it
I hope the attachment helps
EDIT--
Solutions to my problems:
WHEN you softbrick your phone and you only have fastboot and nothing else
Thanks to this guy..
SOLUTION: download your original firmware but choose the fastboot one and not recovery after download just unzip. Double click flash_all.bat and its back to square one.
WHEN you dont know how to flash or the file you have is .img
SOLUTION: find a guide in xda because apparently you can install a .img file in "fastbootd" mode
the guides here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...sues-all-without-any-custom-recovery.4337099/
COMMENT: not the usual thats what on top of youtube search.
WHEN you see errors in twrp/orangefox recovery you might get panic and search for solution.
COMMENT: try to find and use a solution that doesnt delete something first. In my experience it got bricked even more.
Thanks to the people who commented back on my post and helping me get to know what to do next.
Try putting the stock ROM on a SD card or usb (if you have a dongle).

SD card that you put on beside the sim? if yes
Do I download stock ROM in official website? Cus I dont have 1 right now
then flashing it there by using twrp? is that how its gonna run? because i really dont wanna assume and create another problem
Try flashing this stock ROM (global) from a SD card, in TWRP. It's a recovery package, so you can install it as any zip.
Also, can you boot into fastboot/bootloader from TWRP?
Plus, where did you get the ArrowOS image? There are no builds, official or not.

Is the twrp detecting your sd card?try click on the Install image and change to install zip
can you sideload?
I can now see it, I think I reflashed twrp, now I can, but I cant install because of failed to mount system_root and I have done change file system of data to Ext4. when it resets it comes back to f2fs
edit: change file system of data to Ext4 failed
edit2: thank you guys really for commenting back and helping me
is no verity affecting it? cus I am not able to install it now
you should format data and put the arrow build in it, maybe it will work

Should have said "extract the file, there's a zip or img inside", don't change the file extension.
Update: I found the guide how to sideload ... just change the Ext4 to F2fs
[Tutorial] TWRP ADB Sideloading
Alternative solution: OTG usb flash drive - With one of these, you can store a ROM zip safely, and still format ‘userdata’ to f2fs or EXT4. TWRP ADB Sideloading Requirements: Mac | Linux | Windows PC / Laptop and TWRP Custom Recovery Moto G...
forum.xda-developers.com
and I was able to sideload it and then got MIUI finally
what worried me is there were still errors like system_root, vendor and product... and its running fine now I guess but im back on track to make it to arrow OS.... I hope no mistakes this time like deleting metadata.
Thank you all who replied to this post , I really do. Thank you

no problem next time installing, stick to sideloading, less room for error
I cant seem to install TWRP recovery again it justs bootloop .. I dont know why anybody knows?
Whenever I fastboot boot twrp3.6.1-rosemary it fails, says too many links, and when I fastboot reboot recovery it boot loops
flashboot flash boot twrprosemary says okay in slot A and I even put it to B and flash it there sadly
the problem might be because its A12 ... just an update

A12 shouldn't be a problem.
Probably you should flash another vbmeta.img.
OR
I don't know if there is an .img twrp around, but if there is you can:
Code:
fastboot boot {recovery.img}
and then [Advanced]>[Install Recovery Ramdisk].
